A/N: Yes people I am finally starting to slowly emerge into the drama. I'm introducing a new character that will affect the story a lot to come. Good or bad? You'll have to keep reading to find out won't ya?! Muahaha.. sorry you all know I'm weird by now.
((Kristina's POV))
I quickly jumped in the shower and washed my hair since it reeked of smoke. I got out and decided I was too lazy to blow it dry it so I quickly towel dried it as much as possible and threw on a pair of jean shorts and a tank top and was out of the hellhole I call home.
"Will you be coming home tonight?" my dad asked as I was stepping out of the door.
"Yes I have school tomorrow." I said sighing.
"Do you got your crap?" I love my father's vocabulary.
"Yes. Can I go now?" I said staring longingly at the outside world.
"Goodbye." Was his response and it was enough for me.
I wanted to ask Soda what exactly I did last night so I decided to head over there, but I felt like walking. I needed to think about some stuff. How am I going to stand living with my dad until I at least go to college? I also didn't like how Soda was all I ever thought about. I was becoming whipped and that was the last thing on Earth I wanted to be, but if I was going to be whipped with anyone, I'm glad it's him.
A/n: new character time! But this isn't his POV Randy is not the new character.
((Randy's POV))
"So who's this new chick you were telling Bob about?" Scott asked me.
"Oh, it's the girl Kristina. She lived here a couple years ago and I guess her family decided to move back." I said.
"She as hot as you were saying?" he asked grinning.
"Yeah she's hot. Cherry told me she heard she's with Soda Curtis though."
"Why? Wait is she a greaser?" he asked me.
"No, but I don't know she's friends with them all. It's weird." It was weird. I was actually kind of interested to see how she's planning on working that out.
"Well Marcia's pretty hot too." He said nudging me.
"Yeah Marcia's cool. I doubt it's anything long-term though. You know how I do." I said returning the same evil grin he gave me earlier.
He opened his mouth to say something when of course against all odds I see none other than Kristina walking down the street.
"Holy shit, there she is." I said pointing for Scott.
"Who? Kristina?" he asked.
"Yeah."
"Damn! Stop the car. Introduce me now!" he practically yelled.
"Why? Dude I just told you she has a boyfriend."
"A greaser does not deserve that. Come on Rand be a pal!"
"Jesus Christ, fine. Don't be an ass though. I'd like to keep a girl as a friend for once." I said rolling my eyes.
"Hey Kristina!" I yelled stopping the car.
She turned around and quickly gave me a big grin.
"Hey Randy! How are you?"
"I'm good, I'm just driving around with my friend Scott." And with that Scott got out of the car and ran over to the other side I guess to get face to face with her.
"Hi, I'm Scott, Scott Anderson." He said shaking her hand.
"Hey, nice to meet you." She said.
"I'm sorry but can I just tell you, you're really just beautiful." He said stammering trying to find the right words. I rolled my eyes.
"Wow, thank you." She said smiling at his compliment.
"So do you need a ride somewhere?" I offered.
"Um, no thanks that's okay. I'm in the mood to walk." She said brushing her hair back. She really was pretty. I mean Scotto wasn't lying.
"Where you headed?" Scott asked.
"I was going to go to Soda's."
"Let us give you a ride. Trust me you don't want to be walking around there alone." Scott said and he was right. She wouldn't make it there without any harassment from someone.
"Well…" she said thinking about it.
"What you don't like me anymore?" I asked trying to persuade her.
She grinned. "Alright, alright Randy." She said rolling her eyes at my sad attempt at pity.
Scott ran over and opened the door for her. This was pathetic.
Kristina just laughed though and thanked him.
"Ready for school?" she asked us in the car.
"No." we both replied.
"You?" I asked.
"Eh I guess so. I'm kind of nervous." She said.
"Don't be, stick with us and you'll be fine." Scott said, and I saw her bite her lip and look out the window with that comment. I knew she was probably planning on hanging out with the greasers.
We got to his house pretty quickly by car. "Thanks for the ride you guys. See you tomorrow." She said with a big smile and wave and got out.
"So." I said once she got out of the car.
"Guaranteed, you give me till Thanksgiving and we will be together." Scott said.
Never going to happen. I know for a fact she would not go for Scott.
"Care to make a wager on that?" I asked.
"Sure. 50 bucks." He said nodding.
"You just lost yourself 50 bucks." I said driving away.
((Kristina's POV))
It's weird how two groups of people can be so much alike yet hate each other. I thought to myself walking up to the Curtis' house.
I walked in and saw only Steve eating a pizza by himself watching TV.
"Hello Steven." I said knowing he hated the name Steven.
"Hello Alky." He said nonchalantly.
"Damn! You know too?" I said sighing.
"Everyone knows babe." He said laughing.
"Where is everyone?" I asked.
"Work, work, track." He said in one sentence and then starting examining my face.
"What?" I asked.
"Who hit you?"
Crap. I realllllyyy didn't want anyone to know about my dad. Play dumb, I thought.
"What?" I asked again. I'm a terrible liar.
"Kristina, don't. Just tell me who hit you."
"No one hit me."
"I know what a hit looks like damnit I've been in enough fights." He said getting angry now.
"Come on Stevie." I said quietly and looked down.
"Tell me it was one of those soc's I saw you drive here with!"
"No, no Steve no." I said stammering.
"Then who?"
"WHO KRISTINA?"he said now yelling.
"My dad, Steve." I said sighing.
"Your dad?" he asked now back to a normal tone.
I nodded looking away.
"I'm sorry, Kris. I didn't mean to yell at you, you know that right? I just gotta know when I gotta kick someone's ass on account of them touching my girl." He said pulling me into a hug.
I smiled slightly. "Thanks Steve." I said laughing slightly.
"Let's go visit Sodapop okay?" he said patting me on the back.
"In a little bit, he'll probably get pissed about this too." I said pointing to my bruised cheek.
"Probably. What do you want to do then?" he asked. I grinned. I had an idea…
