So We Meet Again

Arianna's POV

As we started walking, i was getting all excited. I tried to distract myself so i don't look like a complete fool. Two-Bit was doing his usual thing, drinking some beer. Pony was smoking a weed. I would say the most interesting thing was the little romance between ol' Dally and Nichole. Dally had his arm around her, i thought that was cute. I gave a hand signal to Two-Bit to look, he made it so obvious. He completely turned towards them.

"You two couldn't get anymore closer can ya..." Two-Bit laughed at his remark. I saw Nichole turn a bright red, but Dally couldn't look anymore casual then he did. Guess he didn't care 'bout what people say to him much.

I shook my head and mumbled "Two-Bit..."

Two-Bit decided to change the subject. "You guys know that Ari here, has her own band back at her home town."

"Oh really? What's it called?" Nichole asked turning back to her natural color.

"I don't really know. We just play songs." I said. I don't really like talking about my band. "I'm not really sure we're good, but we play at some gigs to get some money."

"You think you can show 'em a few tunes?" Two-Bit asked curiously.

"Ehh..." i didn't it would be a good idea.

"Aww c'mon. They can't be that bad." Ponyboy said butting in.

"When i went to visit her, she played this song that had to do with her parents. What was it called agian?" Two-Bit said trying to convince to me.

"On The Other Side..."I mumbled. I didn't want Two-Bit talking about my songs. All of them have to do with something that happened to me. Like an experince of some sort.

"Right. That's the one! You should play that." Two-Bit said.

"You got family problems?" Dally asked. "Don't worry you ain't they only one."

I turned away and kept on walking. There's two things i hate talking about to people: My band and my parents. Anyway while we were walking, everyone was quiet until we reached the DX station. I saw Soda from behind. I ran towards him, i was going to jump on his back and surprise him, when i saw three girls talking to him. But they weren't just talking, they were like touching his abbs and his muscles. I guess he was showing them off. I stopped in my tracks, I didn't feel so good anymore.

"Hey Soda! Guess who's here!" Pony yelled.

Soda turned around and saw us standing there. He left the girls and came to us with Steve right behind him.

"Nichole!" Soda gave Nichole a huge bear hug. "How you been? It's so good to see you!" he said joyfully.

"Just wanted to visit my favorite cousin again! I missed this place."

"I see you met Arianna." Soda said smiling at me. I gave him the dirtest look. I was pissed off. If he had a girlfriend i think he would have told me and then i wouldn't be so upset, but he was flirting with three girls! I didn't think that was kool. Soda gave me this look that said 'what's wrong' but i turned away and ignored him.

"Where you guys goin'?" Steve asked cutting the silence between us.

"I gotta git goin'. I'm gonna get even with the guy who did this to my face." Two-Bit said talking seriously for once. I almost forgot he got a black eye last night.

"Be careful Two-Bit. You sure you won't need any help?" I asked sounding a bit worried, even though i souldn't be. He's tuff enough to handle things on his own.

"Yeah, don't sweat it! See you guys later!" Two-Bit walked off.

"So what do we have planned?" Dally asked us

"Hey y'all!" It was Johnny. "I thought you guys would be here."

"Hey JohnnyCake!" Nichole said giving Johnny a hug.

"How's been goin' Nichole. It's been awhile."

"Try 3 months."

"I'm hungry you guys, why don't we get something to eat." Dally said talking out a weed.

We all agreed. Everyone said bye to Soda and Steve, except for me. I only said bye to Steve; i looked at Soda and gave him a pissed off look. He went in front of me "What's wrong Ari?"

"Why don't you go back to your fan club already" I said pointing towards the girls. "They're waitng for you..." Then i just ran passed him. I heard him yell my name, but i didn't bother to look back.

After we got something to eat we started walking around the park. Dally and Nichole were holding hands, Johnny and Ponyboy were talking about something that happened a few weeks ago, and I was just walking in silence; hoping that miraculously Two-Bit would show up. Then there were a like about four greasers walking by across from us.

"Hey, wait here. i gotta go talk to Shepard 'bout somethin'." Dally said and then went towards the other greasers.

"Who's Shepard?" I asked to no one in particular.

"Tim Shepard is a greaser. He's the leader of the Tim Shepard and Co. gang." Ponyboy said

"Wow, what a creative name..." i said sacrastically.

Nichole chuckled "That's what i said too."

"Guess great minds think alike." I stared at the guy talking to Dally. I guess that's Shepard. Then i heard somone honking on the other side of the park. We went to see who it was. It was a Red Mustang. And then my favorite people were in it...the Socs.

"What they want?" I said apparently to myself. And with my luck it was the same Soc who cut up my arm up.

"Hey you! I was looking for you." He said getting out of the car.

"Oh great. What do they want now..." I saw his face, it was even uglier in the daylight. I took out my blade trying to tell him to back away. I think i sorta frighten Nichole a bit 'cause she flinched when i took it out. But then she cooled down and gave the Soc a cool stare.

"Look what you did to my face!" he yelled.

"Yeah well it didn't look better before either." i said laughing at my remark.

"Be careful Arianna. Don't get so mouthy like Two-Bit." I heard Pony say. I heard somone yell from the car 'C'mon Eric, they ain't worth our time.'

"Git over here! We're gonna take them apart one by one." Eric said. I'm guessing his name was Eric anyway. Four other Socs came out of the car. I was a bit scared, but i remembered Dally and other greasers were on the other side. I started to move backwards slowly, until Eric took out a gun. Then i froze.

"Don't move, or i'll shoot!" he said roughly.

I looked over to Nichole and the others. They were scared stiff. "Don't hurt them, let them go. It's me who cut your face. Take me on." i said bravely.

"No, i want to have fun with these greasers." he said chuckling a bit.

I gave him the same look i gave Soda. This time i meant busniess, i'll make sure he doesn't bother me again.
