Dally's POV

Urgh that dumb little broad…man she really got me pissed off! Saying that I didn't care, well I used to. I can't believe I'm gunna be stuck with her tagging along all the time. She doesn't realize that you can't just come back into someone's life and expect nothing to change. I didn't exactly know where I was going, but I had to leave or I mighta punched that little chick, I'll give her one thing though she's fiery, she can hold her own, that's the only compliment I'll ever give her, but she'd never hear it leave my mouth, I finally decided to head back over to bucks, maybe I could find a good party girl there.

Pony's POV

When Eme came in from out side she seemed mighty upset, but I decided not to push it, so I just let her be. She came and sat next to me and started watching Mickey, but I could tell she wasn't really paying attention; she seemed to be really in thought about something, like this whole Dally problem wasn't sitting right with her. I wasn't really enjoying watching Mickey so I decided I'd do up the dishes before Darry got home.

"Hey Two-Bit wanna give me a hand in here" I called from the kitchen "most of this is your mess anyways" I wasn't about to let him get off scott free.

"Ya alright, I've already seen this one anyways" two-bit got up and came into the kitchen "hey pony what's wrong with Eme…she seems real down, it ain't nothing to do with Dally does it?" Two Bit asked with all seriousness

"I think it might be, or she just might be missing New York or something, but she does seem awful down" I whispered back, I didn't want Eme to hear us talking about her; she might get even more upset than she already is. I heard Darry's truck pull up, that meant he was home, and he'd probably bring dinner considering it was Saturday night

"Where is everyone, Pony, Two-Bit? Hello Eme" Darry came in asking

"Heya Darry, they're in the kitchen" her voice almost monotone. Darry came in "what's wrong with Eme?" he asked while putting his work stuff away

"well earlier today she ran into Dally, and he wasn't to thrilled to see her, and he said some pretty rotten things to her, then when he did come over to 'apologize', they was real mean to each other" Two-Bit explained

"Oh well that makes sense, Dally and her were always pretty close, maybe Dally'll get over it in a little while" when Darry spoke his voice was strong and truthful, so I believed him

Eme's POV

I knew the boys were talking about me, and my Dally problem but I really didn't care, I just wanted Soda to come home, I sure hoped he wasn't kidding about taking me to the drive in tonight, I needed to get out and get my mind off the events of today

"Emelline LeAnna Randell, come in here, and eat your dinner it's getting cold" Darry yelled from the kitchen

"Girl, what were ya doing in there that you didn't her us call for you?" Two-Bit chuckled

"Sorry I musta been thinking about something" I walked in and grabbed a spot next to my brother, who I guess got home somewhere between Darry saying hello to me and now, but I didn't notice "heya Steve, how was work?" I noticed Soda wasn't at the table "where's Soda?" I added

"work was okay, and Soda, he's getting all prettied up for your date tonight, he says if you wanna he's still offering to take ya tonight" Steve said with slight annoyance, maybe I shouldn't be going out with my brothers best friend…oh well he offered

"oh ya I'd love too…I totally forgot about that, Darry do ya mind if I skip dinner, I gotta get ready, I promise I'll eat when we get there" I got up quickly and ran to my room without waiting for a reply. I had to figure out what I was gunna were, I finally decided on a pair of black Capri pants and a pink sweater, when I got outa my room the whole gang was sitting in the living room, I got a wolf whistle from Two-Bit and smiles from everyone else, excluding Steve, he looked like he was gunna kill Soda, I walked over to a happily grinning Soda, as he wrapped his arm around my shoulder

"we'll be back later, I promise Steve I won't let anything bad happen" he laughed as we headed out the door, as we got to the truck Soda opened the door for me, awe he was being such a gentleman, so gallant. We paid and parked in the front row, now I had every intention on watching this movie, but seeing as we still had a few minutes to spare, Pepsi-Cola and I started talking and before I knew it the movie was over "my god, did we just talk over the entire movie" I gaped "looks like" Soda chuckled as he started to drive away. I think us talking was better than actually watching the movie, I learned a lot about what had happened since I'd left, I heard in detail the story that lead to Johnny's death and I heard about what happened to Soda's love of his life Sandy, I also let Soda in on a few of my own adventures in New York. When we got back I noticed it was real late about 2 in the morning

"Soda, I had a real nice time tonight, it was nice having someone to talk to, we'll have to do it again sometime" I told him, he just looked at me and smiled. We got into the house and went our separate ways. For the first time in quiet a few days I slept peacefully without any burdens on my mind, but come morning one more problem was gunna stand in my way…telling Steve I like his best friend.
