Okay, on with the story!
Chapter 7
Stupid People and Bad signs
Meagan cursed under her breath as she watched him drive away. 'He's going to get in a car accident' she thought to herself. 'Either that or get caught.'
She pushed her way inside to see if anyone she trusted to take her home was there. There were some guys from the Brumsly gang there and a few out- of- towners she didn't know. No one from Shepard's gang or her own. Now she was stuck.
She asked the guy at the counter if she could use the phone but he was a brat and wouldn't let her. She was basically stuck at Dingo's with no money. She sat down at a table and put her head down.
Tim, Dally, and Two- Bit came in at about nine 'o clock. They looked and smelled drunk. They stumbled over to Meagan and sat down.
"Hiya Meagan!" Two- Bit hiccupped. "What're you doin' here?" He hiccupped again.
"The guy I was with left me here." She slipped Tim's keys back to him. He looked at her questioningly but didn't say a word.
"Curly got caught robbin' an alcohol store this afternoon. That'll keep him in the cooler for six months."
"C'mon Dally, two- bit, we'd better go. You two are wasted."
"Hell no! We came here to get drunk and god dammit we're gonna get drunk!" Two- Bit slammed his fist on the table.
"You already are. Gimme your keys, I'll drive. Tim, I'll give you a ride home." Dally handed Meagan the keys before he, Tim, and Two- Bit all reluctantly got up and stumbled out.
"Bye Tim!" Meagan called as he made his way up to his porch. She drove to two' bit's house, almost gagging because of the smell of beer. As she passed her house she saw the TV on. Not a good sign.
After two- Bit had made it into his house, the smell lightened. She drove to the corner and stopped. She had to figure out where Johnny was. When dally was drunk and in a good mood was the best time to try.
"Hey Dally, where's Johnny?"
"I already told ya' Bernie, I ain't got a clue." His eyes flashed a certain way that only Meagan knew about.
"You goddamned asshole. You ain't drunk, are ya'?"
"Nope, I'm sober. Tim and I thought it would be funny to see how you would react. It got you to not be so depressed, didn't it? I shall have to tell- wait a minute. Why'd you only ask about Johnny?"
"I knew you were closer to him than to Pony."
"Right." He said sarcastically. He leaned foreword from the backseat to look Meagan in the eye. Meagan smiled and stepped on the gas. Dally flew backwards into the back of the seat, causing Meagan to laugh.
"Exactly."
Once they got to Darry's house, they got out of the car and started up the steps. Dally was chasing Meagan who threw his keys back toward him and then ran into the house to avoid getting tackled.
As Meagan and Dally disappeared into the house, two people stepped out from the shadow of a tree.
"Damn Bitch. She'll pay." One said as they got into their blue mustang and drove away.
Dun, dun, dun! Please review! Even if you don't like it.
