Okay, on with the story.
Chapter 8
GO!
The next day Meagan woke up after only about two hours of sleep. Yawning, she got up and went to her backpack, which was next to her. Tim had come by late last night to drop it off. She slipped past Dally and went into the bathroom.
Once inside, she locked the door and set her backpack down. She took out her clothes and stuff to get ready for school. She slipped out of her pajamas (Steve's old work shirt and a pair of his sweats) and put on a blue tank top and a jean skirt that reached her knees. Shivering, she pulled on Johnny's old jean jacket.
She brushed her hair and kept it down. Then she took out her make- up and attempted to make it look like she wasn't tired. When she was satisfied, she put everything away and went into the kitchen. Surprisingly, Soda and Darry were both already there. Soda, clad in only his wheat jeans, was cooking a purple globby substance. He looked dead on his feet. Darry was reading the paper and drinking coffee.
"Pepsi, go to bed. I'll take over for you today."
"But-"
"Now! I'll finish making breakfast and bring some in to you. GO!" Meagan might be the second youngest, the only girl, and smaller than anyone, but she could still order them around. It was sometimes funny that these big tough guys would listen to a supposedly shrimpy girl.
Soda reluctantly handed over the purpled spatula and went to his room. Meagan went about making his purple eggs.
Two- Bit, Steve and Dally stumbled in just as Meagan was handing out the eggs. They looked at her funny when she put purple eggs in front of them but said nothing. Meagan took some eggs into Soda's room and set them on the bedside table. He was asleep, sprawled across the bed. Meagan smiled and walked out.
"Darry, could you give me a ride to DX?"
"Two- Bit'll give you a ride after school, just like normal Meagan."
"But Steve, I'm not going to school. I'm taking over for Pepsi, he's asleep right now."
"You can't skip school."
"Your not my dad. Besides, I've already called in sick. Instant day off."
"I'll give you a ride." Dally piped up. "I'll stay there too. I got nothin' to do and it's always boring during the day, no customers."
"Okay, we'd better go. Bye guys! See ya' later!" Meagan called as she left the house.
