"Glory, I knew you had a thing for me." Dally said with a sly smile, still laying on the ground.
"She just got sick of getting laid by Socs, she came lookin' for someone a bit more...wild." Tia taunted, glaring at the red head.
"Hey, I'm not the one letting some guy do me in the middle of an empty lot." The girl shot back.
Tia gave her a filthy look as Dally let go of her.
"Its called football, not that you look the type to play sports." Tia replied.
Tia gratefully accepted a hand from KJ to help her off the ground, she was still stiff as a board. Dally stood up and eyed the red head, Tia could see that he was thinking of a few remarks of his own.
"Oh so thats what you and your boyfriend call it." She replied innocently.
"I ain't her guy." Dally said motioning to KJ "He is."
"Look, my name is Cherry Valance and I came here to talk, thats all." Cherry said looking at each of the guys.
"Oh, we can do more then that." Dally told her playfully.
"Please excuse Dally, sure we can talk." Darry told her, stepping forward.
"Well, its about your friends...who killed Bob, he was my boyfriend." Cherry said slowly.
"Filthy no good Socs who shoulder stick their switchblades where the sun don't shine." Tia grumbled.
KJ wrapped his arms around her and chuckled.
"I want to help you. I know what Bob and his friends had been drunk and looking to start trouble. I promise I will even testify for your friends." Cherry continued ignored Tia's comment.
"And why would you do that?" Tia asked suspiciously.
"Because I want to help." Cherry replied.

"We don't need no fricken spy!" Tia grumbled as they walked back to house.
"Yes we do." Darry replied gruffly.
Lisa and KJ stayed for supper, which was prepared by Darry. After supper, Two-Bit pulled out a deck of cards.
"Poker anyone?" He asked laughing.
All of them joined in the game except for Darry who wanted to make a few more calls to see if there was any news on Pony. Two-Bit opened his mouth to say something as Tia dealed.
"No strip poker." She said without looking up.
"Aw, your no fun." Two-Bit replied laughing.
Tia was having some slight troubles dealing the cards with her fingers in splints. She finally gave up and handed them to Steve to deal.
After playing a few rounds, Dally stopped the game.
"Wait wait wait." He said and pointed to Soda and Tia "You and you are cheating."
"So what? You are too." Tia said nodding towards his sleeve.
That got the whole group of them laughing.
"This is pointless, your all cheaters." Steve said, throwing his cards on the table laughing.
Darry then came into the room, his face grim.
"Any news?" Soda asked hopefully.
"Nope, not a sign of them. The received a tip from someone that they are heading towards Mexico. Why, I don't know." Darry replied shrugging.
Tia and Dally exchanged quick glances, trying to keep their faces straight. The fuzz believes anything you tell them.
KJ and Lisa went home soon after that, Tia stayed with the guys not wanting to give Darry anything else to worry about. She fell alseep on the couch she always slept on around midnight, only to be woken up two hours later. She stirred when she heard footsteps and rolled from her back onto her side. When a hand shot out and covered her mouth she reached in her pocket for her blade. She had it out and at the throat of the threat beside her in seconds.
"T-Bird, its me, put that thing away." Dally hissed pushing it away from him.
"Glory Dally I almost gutted you, what are you doing here at this time of night?" Tia whispered back.
"Its time to go check on the boys." Dally replied.
Tia nodded and carefully climbed off the couch. She grabbed her jacket and scribbled a quick note for Darry.
Dally going to pick Tim up in the next town. Gone with him, I'll be back in a day or two. Don't worry, I'll be fine.

Tia and Dally walked in silence towards Buck Merils house. The lights were still on, he must have people Dally opened the door and Tia followed him into the house. They found Buck and a few other guys in the kitchen playing cards.
"Hey Dallas, what are you two doin' here this late?" Buck asked looking up.
"I need to get a lend of your car." Dally replied.
Buck shrugged and tossed Dally the keys. Tia did note that he looked slightly drunk and probably wouldn't have given up his keys so easily if he hadn't been.
"Thanks, I'll get it back to ya in a few days." Dally said heading back out the door, Tia still in tow.
Tia smiled when she saw her car, her favorite, a T-Bird. Dally loved driving Bucks car and eagerly climbed into the drivers seat.
"Get ready for a hell of a ride." Dally told Tia once she shut her door.
"She just got sick of getting laid by Socs, she came lookin' for someone a bit more...wild." Tia taunted, glaring at the red head.
