The drive was quiet except for the rain hitting off the windshield and roof of the car. Two-Bit decided to take a 'short cut'. It took two and a half house of just going in circles all around town. The car ended up running out of gas in the lot. Two-Bit started to swear like a sailor and Velma just leaned back into her seat.

"Alright...so I guess we're gunna run." Two-Bit said, taking off his seat belt.

" Run? Velma looked out the window, then back at Two-Bit, " Run where?" She asked, not looking forward to go out into the rain.

"The Curtis's house aint that far...it's alot closer that your house." Two-Bit told her

"Well, we could of been at my house by now if you didn't want to ride around in circles" She said, sounding very annoyed.

Two-Bit grinned, he hadn't gotten her so annoyed . He kinda wanted to see how far he could take it. "Yeah. I know. I kept going the wrong way."

"You knew! You knew you were going the wrong way? Then why the hell didn't you go the right way?" Velma asked.

"I heard 2 wrongs make a right." He grinned.

"Two wrongs don't make a right, Two-Bit, and its not even about Driving!"

He ignored the last part just to bug her," I always thought two rights made a U-turn..."

"Two-Bit -"

"And two U-turns make a circle.."

"Please..."

"And then two circles make a figure eight..."

"Really, stop - "

"Then two figure eights make a butterfly..."

"Knock it off!" She was almost yelling.

Two-Bits grin widened.

" Why do you do that? I mean..you get under someones skin then just keep going and going. People just don't go around doing that.Its just not proper - "

Two-Bit had pulled her in by her shoulder and gave her a kiss. She couldn't break away even if she wanted to...and she didn't really want to. When Two-Bit finally broke off, then there was a long, awkward silence. But he tryed to keep his cool, so he just leaned back and said, " Alright, now lets go.."

"Wait..."Velma said quietly, " What...what was that?...I mean..." She slowly looked back at Two-Bit, who mearly shrugged.

"I guess it's..what ever you want it to be..." He said quietly and looked out the drives-side window.

"What ever I want it to be?.." She thought about that and then smiled abit. She leaned against him. Two-Bit hadn't been expecting her to react like that. He smiled and put his arm around her..

" I don't like it when it rains like this..." She said with a bit of a sigh.

"Well, we can't stay in the car till it stops...I mean, It might not stop for a few hours...or maybe even in the morning." He said with a bit of a shrug.

"So we have to go out there?" She really didn't like that idea.

"Yup." He grinned abit," it'll be fine"They both climbed out of the drivers side door. Two-Bit took Velmas hand and they ran to the Curtis's house.

By the time they got there, although it was only about 2 minutes, they were soaked to the bone.

"Jesus Christ. What happened?" Darry was home.

"The car ran outta gas...so we ran.." Two-Bit shrugged.

"lets try and find some dry clothes..." Darry disappeared down the hall. He came back a few minutes later with Ponyboy. Darry handed Two-Bit a pair of his jeans and Ponyboy handed Velma an old pair of jeans and an old sweater that were too small for him. " Thanks.." She smiled abit.

Velma had gotten changed in the bathroom. The clothes were too big for her. The jeans were hung low on her hips and she was almost tripped over the legs. The arms of the sweater completely covered her hands and it kind of hung down, exposing one shoulder. She stepped into the living room...

"How can they be that big on you?" Darry asked, noticing how the clothes hung off of her.

" Well...they are boys clothes..." She said quietly, looking at the floor.

"They're too small for a boy, now." Darry pointed out, " I mean, I knew they weren't going to fit perfectly, but still.."

Velma didn't answer. She went and sat down beside Two-Bit on the couch and leaned against him as a bolt of lightning stuck, followed by a laud clap of thunder. She really hated this type of weather. She stayed like that until Darry had stepped into the living room and said, " Hey guys, Suppers ready."
