Nothings Fair

I don't own The Outsiders or the characters. I only own Alex, Joe and thier mom.

Authors Note: Please review I would like to know what you think, sorry the last chapter was so small. I have to change something in the first chapter Alex is 17 years old. The next chapter will be up tommorow hopefully.

Banana4422-I think so, but we will all have to see.

Lintucuiel- Thanks, the chapters will be longer.

volleyballlover-Thanx.

Alex Pov

I was starting to get cold, the wind was picking up and Pony is taking to long.

"I wonder what the hell is taking him so long?" Two-Bit said unpatiently.

I started to go get Pony when he ran out of the door. Johnny looked worried.

"Dally is being chased down by socs, in there car there are about 5, he said he wants us to go and help him." Two-Bit, Johhny, and I were running and trying to keep up with Pony. 5, I kept thinking, 5 were very easy to take down, There would be 1 for each but Pony and Johnny might need some help. But why did Dally call? He could of handeld them, after all I know he has a heater. We finally saw Dally running towards us.

"Thanks for taking so long" Dally said out of breath. "Here they come, they each have switch blades" he finished. Thats why he called.

"Pony, try not to get hurt, Darry'll kill us if anything happens to ya." I said. It looked as if he were about to say something but stopped. The socs got out of there car, all of the socs had on madres shirts and khaki pants. Dally was right, each one of 'em were holding swithblades. Two-Bit and I both owned switchblades so we both took ours out of our back pockets.

"Aww, look they all want to protect the young ones" one of the socs said.

"They can kick your ass just as much as I can" Two-Bit said. Leave it up to Two-Bit to say something stupid. Dally started the fight, he ran up to the soc in front of the rest and punched him in the jaw. I ran up to a soc and started fighting with him. I looked over and tried to find Ponyboy. He was on the ground already. I ran over to the soc beating him up and cut his arm, not to deep, but enough to get him to run into the car. I helped Pony up, then they all left. Pony was fine but Two-Bit was hurt bad. Johnny walked slowly over to Pony and started talking to him. I ran over to Two-Bit.

"I'm fine" he managed to say. He had a cut on his lip and a black eye and bruises all over. I stood him up and he had a cut on his back, a very long cut. He was bleeding bad. Dally came over, he was happy the socs left.

"You alright?" I think Dally was asking me, but I wasn't sure so I didn't answer I just kept helping Two-Bit stand up. Dally took Two-Bits arm and supported him completely. He repeated "You alright, Alex?"

"I'm fine, why, I beat the shit out of them" I said happily. Then Dally got a look in his eye like, he was about to kill. "What's wrong Dallas?" I only call him Dallas when he looks like that.

"You beat the shit out of them, what about me? Huh? What did I do? Nothing, right? That's right Dally never does anything for anyone." Everyone kept silent.

"Dallas, you know I didn't mean it like that, Thank you, for..........helping" I didn't know what to say. When we arrived at the Curtis house, Dally let Two-Bit on the couch, and he stormed out after. I went into Pony's bathroom and I looked for some gauze. I found some and came out and put some on Two-Bit. Pony and Johnny went back outside. I was left in the house with Two-Bit.

"Why do you like Dally?" I didn't know how to respond.

"I don't know, he's tuff." I replied.

"Yeah, he is, he has seen alot which also makes him tough. I don't think he would ever care about someone. Like I care about you." Two-Bit said this with seriousness.Then Joe my brother walked in. Wait, Two-Bit likes me, I never thought about Two-Bit as a boyfriend before. Maybe, maybe I could like him more than a friend.

"What is Dally's problem?" Joe asked.

"Just don't ask. Bye Two-Bit." I said quickly, then I left the Curtis house with my brother behind me. I went back to my house, just as the windy day was ending.
