Chapter Ten

When I woke up the next morning, I felt relaxed and warm. I breathed in the sent of cologne and tabacco. I could hear the soft breathing of Dally, who somehow went from just putting his arm around me, to me practically lying on top of him.

I heard the door open and close with a bang. "G'mornin everyone!" Two-Bit cheerfully yelled.

I was about to get up and smack Two-Bit for being so loud and slamming the door on the way in, but when it comes between being warm and cozy with Dally, and jumping on Two-Bit (with the possibility of getting a bruise), I chose Dally. Besides, Dally yelled at him anyway.

"Two-Bit shut up, can't you see some people are trying to sleep?" Dally snapped.

"Nope!" Two-Bit said gleefully.

"Well maybe I should pull out those eyes of yours since ya don't use them." Dally muttered.

"Hey, I do use them when I'm lookin for girl-" Two-Bit paused. "Dally, you do know your arm's around Gail, and does she know that?"

Dally sighed. "Yes I know that, and yes she knows that so lay off." He said in an annoyed tone. "Now shut up, she's sleeping."

"Aw, Dally-Wally went softy-wafty on Gaily-Waily." Two-Bit mocked and laughed hysterically on the floor. Gaily-Waily? Two-Bit's gonna pay. No one called me that since 7th grade and that brought back bad memories. That's when my first boyfriend broke up with me for some bimbo-empty-headed cheerleader (A/N: I have nothing against cheerleaders so don't take this seriously.). I started crying in the hallway, and that's when they started calling my Gaily-Waily. Actually, it turned out pretty good; they stopped calling me that when I punched the living daylights out of this one guy. Of course, it was worth it even thought I got suspended for a bit.

Ok, back to the real world. I felt Dally tense up under me. I'm sure he must of felt me get a bit angry too because he slowed down and I felt his piercing blue eyes gaze at me for a moment. He knew I was awake. Before, a plan was forming in my mind, so I let him in on it.

With Two-Bit still laughing on the floor, Sodapop came in and threw a puzzled look. "What's going on?"

"Nothing, cause Two-Bit will be shutting up in about... 3... 2... 1... NOW!" Yelled Dally. He and I jumped off the couch and ran towards the now quiet Two-Bit. "PIG PILE!" I yelled messing up Two-Bit's tuff hair. Out of nowhere, Darry, Johnny, Ponyboy, Steve, Soda, Dally, and I jumped on Two-Bit.

"Damn, ya'll are heavy!" Two-Bit said. "You can get off now, cause I need to fix my hair!"

Dally and I grinned. "On one condition, say all hail Dally and Gail, and NEVER call me 'Gaily-Waily' again!"

"Or me soft. I would beat the tar outta you if Gail wasn't here." Dally added.

"Ok, ok, fine." Two-Bit muttered.

"What was that Two-Bit?" Steve snickered.

"FINE! Now get off me so I can fix my hair!" Two-Bit yelled. We all laughed and got off him, as Two-Bit immediately ran off to the bathroom.

"I say we make a great team." I said cheerfully.

"We sure do." Dally said kissing me softly.

"Ah hem." Soda said.

We looked back to see five faces looking at us with smirks. (A/N: For some reason, I smell potatoes... Yum.)

"And would, you like to tell us what is going on?" Darry asked smiling, along with the agreement of the other boys.

"I thought we went over this, if you have eyes, use them." Dally said. Darry rolled his eyes and stalked off to get some breakfast with the rest of the gang behind him.

"Well, sorry Dal, but I got to get home. I need to look for a job."

"Well, I'll walk ya home then." Dally said with a playful smile.

I cocked and eyebrow. "Yea, you'll walk me to my house, not in it."

Dally put on a sad face. "Fine."

-----

The walk to my house was longer than usual because we took the long way to my house. It was nice. We held hands and talked for a while and all that romantic stuff you wouldn't believe Dally had in him.

When we neared my house, I noticed a young girl, around 16 or 17 on my porch. She seemed to be fighting herself if she should knock on my door or not. She had golden blond hair with lighter streaks in it and bright sky blue eyes. Like mine I thought.

She finally knocked on my door, while I just stood there. She seemed a bit familiar but I couldn't place where I would know her. She gave up and started to leave, but she noticed me out of the corner of her eye and walked up to me.

"Gail?" She asked
