I don't own The Outsiders
Chapter Three….
Immediately Kristina looked towards Jenna's car, and there Jenna and Robby where. "I'll be right back." she said to the three boys that followed her out the door taking off at a slow run towards Jenna's car. "Jenna!" she called happily, looking over to her Jenna smiled. "Hey girl, wondering where you went! I heard what happened with Frankie and them and Will is pissed!" she said moving her way towards them, closing the gap in between then. "Will heard already?" Kristina said eyes widen. "Everybody did!" "Good, that's what he gets for leaving me for Cherry." she said grinning smugly. "Well me and Robby are gonna go out somewhere you want me to take you home now?" Jenna said. "Nah I think I'm fine, I could walk home if I need to plus I made some friends." Kristina said laughing softly. "Okay I'll see ya later, be careful ya here." she said turning away, Kristina rolled her eyes before walking back towards where she left Pony Boy, Johnny and Two-Bit. She walked her little sexy walk, knowing tons of eyes where on her, she a supposed Socs was hanging out with Greasers…
Johnny and Pony Boy sat on the curb, Kristina sat next to them. "Where'd Two-Bit go?" she asked, wrapping her arms around her legs. "Went to talk to Dally." Pony Boy said softly. "Who is where?" "Don't know." Kristina laughed, "You don't pay attention much do you?" Pony Boy shrugged his shoulders, "I guess not." Just then somebody grabbed Kristina's shoulder; instinctively she jumped up and whirled around. "You freaking scared me!" she said giggling softly. "Just don't pull that knife out on me." Dally said in a more gentle way then he had when they first talked. "Where'd you run off to?" she asked side stepping his hand that tried to grab her. "Talkin' to a few friends." Even though curiosity begged her too she didn't ask about what but instead merely said, "Oh ok whatever."
Soon everybody was up and started walking. "Where're we going?" Kristina asked softly, nobody had opposed her following but then again they hadn't invited her, Dally just nodded his head for her to follow and she did. "Just walking, probably stop at Pony's house or somethin." Dally said, once again trying to grab her. Now this was getting to be a game, and Dally was starting to get annoyed. A blue mustang sped past; Kristina observed that Johnny's faced started to grow pale. There was so much she still had to learn about these Greasers. "Kristina you're probably the only girl Dally hasn't grabbed and has his way with." Two-Bit said noticing their little game. Kristina smiled smugly, "I'm not like most girls." Dally grimaced and mumbled something under his breath. "I could tell, not many Socs hang around, and play around with Greasers… especially Dally." Two-Bit added, rather cruelly at that. Kristina stopped in her tracks, it wouldn't have bothered her that bad if he had said it in a different way but he said it way to rudely. Dally looked like he wanted to kill Two-Bit right then and there, Two-Bit could scare away one of the best girls he had in a while if he kept on going at it.
"You know, I told you before I could care less what peoples 'classes' are, I don't even go by them. Maybe just maybe you should learn about the person before you start making conclusions about them. You're obviously just going by the area I live at, because I wear short skits, I sometimes get a little drunk here and there, I do stuff I regret too and every fucking single girl does it! It doesn't matter what side of town they live at Two-Bit! Did you ever take a second and ask me for my background? My past?" by now she was yelling and the group had stopped, each staring at her with a sort of shock. Taking a deep breath she said in a more calm matter "That's what I thought…" and with that she started walking to where ever they where going, whether they followed or not.
It was a while before any of them said anything but they all four where walking together. "Tell us your past?" Two-Bit asked suddenly, coming to a stop by the park. Glancing at the four guys before saying anything she sighed heavily. "It's kinda long, we might want to take a seat or something…" she said shifting her weight uneasily. "Nobody's past is longer then Dally's jail records and we could stand for that!" Two-Bit added grinning cheesily. "Yea and no girl was ever supposed to be able to kept Dally at bay." she said rolling her eyes walking towards the swing set.
Kristina sat on one of the swings, kicking the dirt with her shoe and swaying a little before she started. PonyBoy stood on one of the swings, Two-Bit and Johnny leaned against one of the swing set poles, Dally stood a few feet away from both of them, and each of them where smoking. "Let's see…" she said to herself, thinking of where to start. She was strong talking about most of the stuff that happened in her pasted.
"Okay my dad was killed when I was like maybe five my sister was about nine. You see he was from around here, and as much as my mom told him to stop he just couldn't. He was a druggie and a dealer, the whole deal. Betcha didn't think that was so huh?" she said glancing towards Two-Bit. "They never found who killed him; the police didn't pay much mind to his murder to begin with."
"My mom ended up getting a job at this magazine company and she had it ever since, though she had to work long hours and me and my older sister never got to see her. So we grew up basically fending for ourselves. Around that time we lived around the middle class area, but then my mom married this guy when I was about eleven. He ended up being a real drunk, always he beat my mom and sometimes even my sister and me, that really how I learned how to fight. I'm a good fighter now… Me, my mom and sister left him one night and some how mom got a shit load of money from the government after the divorce and we moved into the house that just so happens to be on the west side of town.
"About five years ago my sister moved out and that left me and my mom in the house, and still to this day my mom is never home. I don't mind much anymore I suppose, don't even remember how it felt to be something that somebody looked forward coming home from work everyday. So yea I've been around town a lot. Betcha thought only you guys had those kinds of problems huh? Being picked up early from school by a police and then taken to the hospital to find out your father was killed, then watching your mother get beaten then yourself getting beaten, unsure whether to fight back or not, figuring out how to cook your own dinner, if any, by the age of ten. Every kid around here goes threw the same thing; they just have different ways of showing it. Socs parent's give them gifts that coast lots of money for forgiveness, and." she paused for the first time since she began looking towards all of them. "I dunno what you guys get, I didn't get anything though. We live in that area but we aren't the family that has the money, we just got the house that is all. "
She took a deep breath, pulling herself out of the swing. "Surprise, surprise." she said sarcastically, rolling her eyes, as the greaser's remained silent. "Well I'd be damned! We got ourselves some fancy grease!" Two-Bit said laughing. "Fancy grease?" Dally questioned, before laughing himself. Pony and Johnny smiled. "Fancy grease, I like it! Go ahead yous laugh!" Kristina said turning to Johnny and Pony. Looking at each other they laughed… Sighing softly she turned to find her way back to the sidewalk, "I'm glad my life is such a joke!" she called over her shoulder, sticking out her tongue at them.
How long had it been since she stuck out her tongue at guys? Not since she was at least thirteen. Yes, there was something definitely about these boys that made her feel at ease. Maybe it was because they all shared the same pasted, and some how without even talking to each other they where brought together, because they where meant to be together, to over come something big ahead if them, that might cause somebody's life or two if not handled correctly, just maybe…
So Chappie three is over! I hope you like how my story is going so far!
