all selfish first. But that's okay!

It seems as if all the people that deserve to die, just don't.
Just
Playin: They could, but don't find it necessary. Besides it
wouldn't make for a good sequel lol. By the way my e-mail is at
yahoo.
ZiggyGurl:
Good luck again at your B.O.B. I'm having a B.O.T.S.S.C. (Battle of
the Social Study Classes) and I suck at Social Studies, so I'm way
nervous. But anyway, Darry's a wise old sage, lol.
Dark-Celeste:
I thought Steph's chat with Constantine would be insightful and
what not. Of course she's going to see Dally. I'm so glad you
liked the chapter, and really hope you like this one.
babygurl33:

Mrs.

Chapter 28!
Chapter 28: Goodnight, My Darling.
I got to Dallas's house and he wasn't there, as usual. His dad was like dead on the couch, okay well passed out, but still. I half walked, half jogged to Buck Merril's place. That's the second place he would be on a Friday night.
When I got there, there was a party going on. Does this guy do anything but throw parties? I shrugged and walked in. I spotted him over in the corner, by Curly and his brother Tim.
I tried to squeeze past sweat drenched bodies that were dancing on the floor. It was really disgusting to do.
He finally realized I was coming when I was about an inch away from him.
"He-" he started to greet me, but I cut him off short by throwing my arms around him and kissing him.
"We're gonna go..."Tim announced, pulling Curly's ear when he was reluctant to follow.
"What was that for?" he asked once I pulled away from him.
I shrugged.
He laughed, "So you're really leaving tomorrow huh?"
"Yeah I really am. But I'll be back in a year."
"Well when I see you in magazines and stuff I can say, 'hey look that's my girl!'."
"No you won't," I shook my head.
"Why not?" he asked confused.
"Because," I started, taking his ring off and placing it back in his hand, "I'm gonna be gone, and you shouldn't be tied down to me. So I want you to go out with people. There's definitely a girl here that deserves you more than I do, and is better than I am. So go find her while I'm gone. If I come back and your not with anyone than great, but if you are then cool."
"Babe, there's no one better than you," he spoke gently, the most gentle I've ever heard him, and stroked my chin with his thumb.
"Thanks, but trust me, I'm a real bitch with major problems. But let's not think about that.." I grabbed his hand and pulled him to the little dancing area and started jumping around, as if it was the last time I'd be with him.
Hours Later...
I awoke next to Dally, the events that had brought me to this bed fresh in my head. I thought about them and blushed a deep red, and smiled like a clown. He was fast asleep, thank heavens he doesn't snore. Guys who snore seriously annoy me. I kissed his forehead and hopped out of the bed. Slipping back into my clothes I snuck out of Buck Merril's extremely messy house, snickering at the thought that he has to clean, and hurried back to mine.
When I got there everyone was awake.
"Where the hell did you disappear into, little Ms. Hudini?" Amanda asked, looking up from the couch.
"No where."
"Nice hickey," Belle pointed out.
"Where?" I searched the mirror and sure enough there was one, right by my collarbone. I'm so oblivious, I don't even know when guys give me them.
"Went to see your darling Dallas?"
"Yes, went to see your darling Steve?"
"Maybe," Amanda smiled mischievously, and we knew exactly what happened with them.
"Where's Johnny?" I asked Sage, noticing one less person.
"He went into the nursery before, and fell asleep while rocking Bethany. They look adorable together," she smiled lovingly.
"Aw, cute."
Next Day
The next day was nerve racking. Peter came over to run over the schedule with us. We were playing everywhere. Texas, California, Washington, South Dakota, Maryland. I was never realized how many states, and cities were in America.
"So tomorrow we leave at 6 in the morning sharp. You have your first performance at 8 tomorrow night, in Elk City. We'll get to Elk City at about 9, but we're checking into a hotel, so you girls can rest and then eat and relax. At about 6 that night, we'll get all the equipment set up, do a quick run through, at 7 we'll be doing a sound check, and then at 8 o'clock you girls are up. So we have a pretty relaxed day, but right after the concert, at about eleven, we're back on the road."
"Whoa," Johnny spoke for all of us.
"Yeah, it is pretty scheduled, but you'll have fun. Plus they'll be plenty of things for you girls to do, and I bet plenty of guys for you girls to see."
We smiled a little from that one, and Johnny just stared at Sage.
"The only boy I want to see is you," she reassured him.
He sighed in relief.
I hadn't heard from Dally all day. Amanda, Belle, Steve and Two-Bit were out for dinner. Johnny and Sage went over to the Curtis's with Bethany. My dad had left for his house, up in Oregon. Rick was in New York, so was Montana. There's absolutely nothing to do. No one to see. And to think I'm leaving in eight hours.
I turned on the radio and laid down on our decroded couch.
"And now we're going to take it down a bit, with a tune that will go down in history," the radio announcer spoke softly.
I closed my eyes and hummed along with the words that were so close to my heart, as if they were my own...
This
lullaby is only a few words
A
simple run of chords
Quiet
here in this spare room
But
you can hear it, hear it
Wherever
you may go
Even
if I let you down
This
lullaby plays on...
I hope you all liked that chapter. It felt a little, I dunno, weirdish. Well next chapter is last! Hoping to get it up today! Yay!
