Chapter 5: It's Another One

The next couple of days at school, Danny got more aquatinted with Maria. They were close to becoming a couple. They were walking out of school together.

"So what did you make on you test?"

"76."

"That's okay."

"Yeah. At least I passed. Hey, there's my ride, I'll see you tomorrow."

"Alright. You need any help on schoolwork, let me know."

"Alright. See you later."

He ran over to Two-Bit's car. He was grinning like a chessy cat now.

"I know you're not smiling at my game."

"Partially," he started. "My nephew is coming to town to visit his Uncle Two-Bit."

"Isn't your name Keith?" said Rachel.

"I have two names."

Two-Bit dropped the kids off at the house and went to go pick up his nephew. They were gonna meet halfway and bring him back. They went into the house. Houston walked into his parent's room. 'That kid must really love his dad' thought Danny. He went to his room. He just began to study for a little bit. He finished his homework at school.

"Helloooooo"

Who the heck could that be? Didn't sound like Two-Bit. Danny walked out front to see Two-Bit with some kid around his age. Two-Bit spoke up,

"Hey Dannny! This is my nephew, Keith."

'Keith'. That's probably why he was called Two-Bit.

"Hey Keith," said Jack walking in from the kitchen. Cathy stuck her head in and said

"Hey boys."

Keith then spoke up.

"Let's go hunt some action," suggested Keith. "You guys want to?"

He raised an eyebrow.

'Must run in the family' thought Danny.

"I'm in," said Jack. "I'll go ask Houston and Rachel."

"So you're Danny?" asked Keith.

"Yeah."

"You any good at poker."

"Not really. I'm better at Uno."

"Not bad. Ponyboy says your dad was pretty good at it. He's coming from the pen later right."

"Yeah. Sometime this month."

"What did he do?"

"Not sure. Mom never told me. I figure that will be one of the many questions I'll ask him."

At that moment, Jack came in,

"Rachel is being stubborn again and Houston fell asleep with Ponyboy. Looks like it's just us."

They all walked out of the door.

"Hey Keith, how old are you?"

"Seventeen."

"Ever hot wired a car?"

"Once. I was drunk though. I don't think I'll drink like that ever again. I stole the car and passed out on the side of the road. It was a good thing I left before the cops found the car."

"You're real lucky then," said Danny.

"Look!" yelled Danny suddenly.

There was a crowd around something.

"Must be a fight," said Jack. All three of them ran up to see what the commotion was. Two greasers that looked to be around Sodapop and Ponyboy's age were arguing with these two hitchhikers. The hitchhikers looked like they were going to attack but the greasers flipped out switchblades. The hitchhikers didn't have anything on them so they just walked off.

Keith and Jack ran up to the two greasers as the crowd left. The two greasers greeted them.

"What's up, Jack and Keith. Who's he?"

Jack put his arm around Danny.

"This is my cousin Danny. Trix's son."

"Really!" the younger greaser said. "Guess who we are."

Danny didn't have any idea.

"Who."

"Tim and Curly Shepard."

"You're those two. The proper hoods of Tulsa."

"Still are," Tim said proudly. "We gotta go mess up some socies. See y'all later."

The two greasers ran off.

"They're some wild ones aren't they?"

"You know it," said Jack. "It's almost time to get home."

"Do we have a curfew on Fridays?" asked Danny.

"No. We can stay out all night. Just as long as everyone knows where we are."

"Good. We can have a little fun tomorrow night."

Both Keith and Jack knew Danny had been making some plans.
