Later in the day, when school finally let out, once again Velma was the last one to leave.

She had just left the school courtyard when a car pulled up beside her. She didn't stop walking so the car didn't stop driving, but it went slow enough so that the person in the drivers seat ( which happens to be Two-Bit) could talk to her.

"Hey!" He was smiling, like usual, " Wanna lift?"

Velma shook her head slightly, "No. I'm fine, thank you." She said politely

"I don't blame her." She heard from the back seat, apparently Ponyboy was in the car aswell, " I mean, with the way Dally drives..."

"Shut your mouth, kid!" Unmistakably the cold voice of Dallas, followed by Two-Bits laughter.

"Oh, come on. Get in the car." Two- Bit said.

"no, I'm fine walking."

" Get in."

"No."

"Get in the car"

"No, I'm walking."

"come on." Two- Bit dragged the words out.

"I'm fine."

"Yes, you are." He grinned and she heard Dally laugh.

Velma just stared at him blankly for a moment. "I'm walking home, Two- Bit." Honestly trying not to laugh.

He smiled, " Come on, get in."

" She said No, Greaser"

Velma turned around as saw about 4 Socs comming toward her. "Don't worry, Babe," One of the socs laughed and put his arm around her shoulder, " We'll take ya home."

"Uh, No. You won't." She pushed his arm off and backed up.

"You mean you'd rather go with these Grease balls then us?" One of the bigger ones aproached her. She backed up abit more, Y-yes...I would." That answer didn't seem to sit to well, cause she got smacked with the back of his hand. She started to fall back but got caught before she hit the ground. It was Two- Bit. She looked around and noticed they had all gotten out of the car when the socs came. Only then did she realize that Johnny was there, too. Great... she thought, being hit infront of other people didn't make her feel to hot.

Velma was ushered into the back of the car, and Dally told Johnny and Ponyboy to get back in, as well.

She couldn't hear what they were saying. They weren't talking very loud, and it looked like a fight was going to break out, But a cop car had slowly driven past. The socs left and Dally and Two-Bit got back into the car and drove off. The drive was silent. All Velma wanted to do now was go home. But Dally had drove to some place. She stared at the sign for a moment, it was called ' The Dingo '." What is this place?" Velma asked, finally as everyone was getting out of the car

" A restaurant" Dally shrugged.

"well, obviously..but that's not exactly what I ment- " She was going to say more but Dally looked at her like he wanted to hit her and she really wasn't looking forward to be hit twice in one day. So she just fell silent and directed her vision to the ground as they walked inside.

She felt like someone was watching her, so she looked around. People were staring at her. She quickly looked back at the ground as Two- Bit spoke up, " Ok, how about yous go get us a table, and me and Dal go get the food?"

"Fine." Ponyboy shrugged.

"So, you two just want the usual?" The question obviously directed at Ponyboy and Johnny...They both nodded.

"Ok. What about you?" Two- Bit nodded in Velma's direction. " Oh.." She thought for a moment, " I'll just have a diet Coke." Two-Bit and Dally just exchanged looks and went to the counter. She looked back at Ponyboy, who was trying not to laugh, and Johnny, who was fighting back a smirk. " What?" She asked, slightly confused.

"Nothing..." Ponyboy headed toward a booth and they sat down. Ponyboy and Johnny sat on one side, Velma said on the other side, leaning slightly against the wall beside her. After a few minutes of silence, Two-Bit and Dally had came and sat down, both on the same side Velma was on. Dally sat beside Velma and she was kind of uncomfortable with that.He put the diet coke infront of her and she muttered " thank you.."

"I wanna know somethin' Doll." He said suddenly, taking out a pack of smokes. Velma only looked at him. " How come you hangin' out with Greasers instead of other Socs?" He asked.

She didn't know how to answer, " I...I..." She really couldn't say.

"She met me first, and I told her not to go hanging around with that trash." Two-Bit cut in. He was smiling at her and she relaxed abit.

"Looks like you're gunna have some bruise.." It was Johnny who spoke up. He motioned to Velma's cheek and she touched it and flinched. She noticed Dally was staring at her, as well as Two-Bit and Ponyboy. She felt herself turn red. " Might wanna put some ice on it when ya get home.." The rest of the time while everyone was eating was silent. But it wasn't an awkward silence...It was the kind of comfortable silence people could only have when they were comfortable around each other

Note : kinda corny ending...heh
