Chapter 4
The next day, Kelly was out of the hospital and going home. According to Dally, Jade hadn't ask very many questions. She just wanted to know that her mommy was coming back home, safe and sound.
(Kelly's POV)
We arrived at the house and I was met with a bouncing little girl jumping into my arms. I smiled and kissed her nose.
"Hey baby."
"Hey mommy! We missed you!" She squealed. I laughed and nodded, making my way into the house with Dally right behind me. He hadn't left my side since he had come to the hospital. He was almost worst than I was at jumpiness today. He had snapped at Pony twice for slamming the door as he came into my hospital room this morning and twice at Soda and Steve for fussing. I laughed at these comments he made, but it wasn't like I was dying. I didn't need perfect quiet. I just needed to be safe and sound for a while.
"I'm going out." Dally called once he had made sure I didn't need anything. I had grown to trust Dally so I didn't say anything when he left.
(Dally's POV)
I was..I dunno. I loved Kelly and all, I just needed to get away from all that mess. Maybe I'd kick someone's ass and feel better, but I doubt it. They had fucking took advantage of her. They fucking raped her. How was she gonna do anything about it? She can barely open a can of Jelly when it's stuck, much less fend off a bunch of damn horny Socs. My thoughts were interrupted when I head a familiar drawling voice talking. I looked up. I had walked over close to the DX and the Socs were talking. I knew the Rumble was tomorrow night, but I recognized the tallest one as the guy that raped Kelly.
"Yea. It was a blast. Nothing better than fucking a greaser that cant do nothing about it."
I couldn't take it. I clenched my fists and walked towards them. I pulled the one talking around and punched him square in the jaw and then noticing the others, I pulled out my blade. The recognized who I was. I could tell. They had fear in there eyes. They backed away slowly as the one I punched recovered from the shock. He stood up and I punched him repeatedly in the stomach.
"Maybe that will teach you not to fuck around with my wife." I said putting emphasis on wife. The Soc looked up at me, like, what the fuck?
"You heard me. Kelly? She's my wife, you dumb fuck." I said as I kept beating him. I beat the living day lights out of him before I felt two arms grab mine. I turned to see Darry and Soda. Kelly was standing back looking stunned. The guy, I had now figured out was James, was moaning.
"Let me go." I said, my eyes flashing dangerously.
"Hell no. Dally stop. Right now." Darry was the only, and I mean ONLY, one that could talk to me like that. Well except for Kelly, but she never tried.
"Darry. Man. Let go." I had already jerked free from Soda's grasp and was working on Darry's.
"No. Stop it." I said firmly.
"Darry, don't you care that he took advantage of your baby sister?? My wife??!" I almost yelled.
"Yea. I care. But you can't kill him. You have a wife and daughter." he said. I looked back over to where Kelly was standing and noticed a small shivering figure grasping her leg. She slowly reached down and picked it up.
"Daddy?" she asked, almost crying out. I looked at her, as my fighting to get loose ceased. Her small brown eyes, her mothers almost, but with a glint all there own were pleading me to stop. I flicked the blade shut and tossed it down. I walked towards her and she buried her face into my chest as I took her. Kelly looked down at the guy on the ground. She bent down next to him.
"You okay?" she asked. I couldn't believe it. He had, not three days ago raped her, and she was asking him if he was okay?? He rolled over and moaned.
"Come on. Get up. " she said softly. She then reached down and touched his ribs.
"There broken. 3. Maybe 4." she informed him. I didn't feel any regret, but I couldn't believe my wife was talking to this scum.
"That bastard husband of yours did it." he spat. She smacked hi right through the face.
"Your lucky he didn't do more. Now get your ass up from here before I sick the rest of them on you. " She threatened. Jade was still leaning against my chest ignoring everyone.
"Grease, your one of a kind. I don't get you." He replied, sitting up. I was gonna interject, but she beat me to it.
"They aint nothing to not get. I AM NOT letting my husband go to jail over something as worthless as you." With that, she stood back up again and turned to the rest of us.
"Jade, are you ready for that ice cream?" she asked her. Jade looked at her and nodded. I could see confusion in Jade's eyes, but she said nothing. She wrapped her arms around my neck, as I watched James, hobble off. I looked at Kelly and she smiled at me. James was right. She was one of a kind.
