Hey there: this is when Cherry spoke to them

Cherry POV:

I knew my hands were shaking and once or twice I considered going back to my car, but I knew I had to do it.

"Hey ya'll" I said nervously. I looked around for a familiar face. Two-Bit stepped forward and I sighed with relief.

They wouldn't do anything to me would they?

"Cherry, what are you doing here?" Two-Bit said

"I just, I mean, I came to say that, I wanted to let you guys know that I'm sorry about all that mess" I felt like an idiot standing there trying to explain myself, "I'm going to testify that Bob and the others were drunk and that they were looking for a fight"

"Are you sure?" Two-Bit asked. He looked really happy about it.

"Listen, this is all my fault. I wish I never went to see that stupid movie in the first place"

They were all quiet.

Finally Two-Bit said "thanks a lot Cherry. We really appreciate it"

"I have to do the right thing, Two-Bit. I'll keep ya'll updated about the rumble"

He smiled and I walked back to my car. I wanted to ask him about Ponyboy, but I knew no body knew where he was. I hoped nothing bad happened to him. He's a really good kid.

"Hey Cherry" I heard a voice say behind me.

I turned to see Dallas Winston face to face. I didn't notice he was among the crowd. I was secretly hoping he wouldn't be. I was scared to see him again, scared to…

"We didn't hit it off so hot last time"

"That's one way of putting it" I snapped back at him. For some reason I just get so frustrated when I'm around him.

"Listen, you wanna go to the Dingo for a coke some time?"

"No thank you" I said as I got in my car. I rolled down the window and said "and you can go to hell!" and drove away

Where did he get the nerve to ask me out just after my boyfriend was killed? Some people have no sense in etiquette! He was so reckless and unpredictable but I couldn't help admire him. I didn't know why.

Finished? Good! Now review!
