"Take it easy." Crystal said. "Oh, was looking through the paper today and there is a house right down the road from the Curtis' that is pretty cheap and it has four bedrooms."
"Oh, that would work just peachy if we could afford it."
"We'll be able to. I have enough money that we can go ahead and make down payment." Crystal said.
"Just how much is the down payment?" I asked her.
"Two hundred dollars." She said.
"How much is the whole house?"
"They're letting it go for a thousand."
On with the new chapter.
"So, they're letting it go for a thousand dollars and the down payment is only two hundred?" I asked her making sure I had heard her right.
"Yep. And there's plenty of room in it for all of us." She said. "I called the guy why you were asleep and we can go look at the house tomorrow."
"Oh, goody." I said sarcastically. "That should be fun."
"Would you stop being a butt head?" Crystal asked.
"Hey watch the language." Beck said.
I'd forgotten that Steve, Becky, Melissa, and Andrew were there. Steve was sitting on the floor with Becky and they kids. Steve and Becky were looking pretty comftorable.
"Well, you two just remember that there is a four year old in the room." I warned them.
After we ate, I went back to sleep. I was tired and my ribs hurt something awfu.
"Dal. Dallas, wake up." Crystal said, shaking my shoulder.
"Huh?" I asked sleepily.
"It's time to get up. We have to go look at the house in a little while."
I dragged myself out of bed and managed to get dressed, without causing myself too much pain. By the time I was finished though, my ribs were killing me. 'The little bastard sure can pack a punch.'
We went to look at the house. We all liked it, so Crystal made the down payment and started on the paper work with the real estate guy.
Once Crystal was finished with the paper work the real estate guy handed her the keys to the house and we left.
"I guess we should get our stuff packed up. The real estate agent said we could move in when ever." Crystal said.
When we got back to my room at Buck's, Crystal and Becky began packing up our stuff. I took a few aspirins and laid down on the bed. A few cracked ribs never hurt this much before.
"Those ribs still bothering you?" Crystal asked.
"Yeah, they're hurting pretty bad." I told her truthfully.
Crystal sat down on the edge of the bed. "Take your shirt off." She told me.
"What?" I asked confused.
"I want to look at those ribs. So take your shirt off." I took my shirt off and sat there.
"Dal, I can't check those ribs if your sitting up." Crystal said.
I laid back and when she started checking my ribs I almost yelled. I drew in a sharp breath and held it.
"I think they're broken."
"No, wonder they hurt so much." I said.
"Let me re-wrap those ribs." Crystal said. Crystal wrapped my ribs again and when she finished I laid back against the pillows.
"I called Steve; him and Soda are going to help us move this stuff over to the house." Becky said.
"Oh good." Crystal said.
"They'll be here in a little while." Becky said.
A few minutes later Steve and Soda showed up.
"Hey Dal, get you're sorry ass up and help with some of these boxes." Steve said.
But before I could say anything Crystal walked back in.
"He will not. He has a few broken ribs that's bothering him, so leave him alone." Crystal warned.
I laid back down. While everyone was loading stuff up, Buck came in.
"Movin' out?" Buck asked.
"Yeah. Do me a favor, would you?" I asked him.
"Sure."
"Keep this room open for me just in case I need it."
"Sure thing Dal." Buck said as he got up to leave.
Becky, Crystal, Melissa, Steve, and Soda finished packing and loading everything. They took it over to the house while I stayed back at Buck's and watched Andrew. My ribs were still soar and they didn't need a four year old around getting in the way with them trying to unload everything. So I get to keep Andrew. He was playing with three matchbox cars. I was propped up, laying on a few pillows watching my little brother play. He was a lot like Soda. When Andrew smiled, you couldn't help but smile back at him. Maybe it was just his four year old charm. In the short time that my brother and sisters have been in my custody, I've come to really care about them. Now I know how Darry feels about Soda and Ponyboy.
My thoughts were interrupted when Steve and Soda walked in.
"Ok, you guys lets go." Soda said to me and Andrew.
"We could have walked over to the house." I said.
"Yeah, and have Crystal kill us all?" Steve asked.
"What's up with her lately? I mean, talk about mood swings."
"Well... You guys say one word about this and I'll beat you're head in! You got it?" I warned.
They both nodded their heads 'yes'.
"She's pregnant." I said.
"Yours?" Steve asked.
I gave him a death glare. "No, it's not mine. She was raped." I told them.
"Oh, man. That's bad." Soda said.
"Yeah." Steve piped up.
TheAngryPrincess13- That's cool. I haven't been able to find the DVD. I'm still looking though. I think the red head was a greaser. His hair was greased and he was wearing blue jeans and a jean jacket. We should e-mail someone involved with the movie and find out who he was...lol. Wow! I made it as one of your favs? I feel so special. ( Thanks for your review. If you want to talk more about the story feel free to e-mail me:
