Dallas's POV:
I just got done beating up Bob. I would do anything to keep Rosanne safe. I know Rosanne is scared right now still. I put my arm around her and she looks up at me with a smile. She leans in closer to me.
"I feel safe around you," she said. That's the first time anyone said that to me.
"Well I want you to be safe," I say.
Rosanne and I walk around town a little bit more. My arm is still around her. I'm actually surprised that she hasn't made me take my arm off her yet.
I look around and see a dance club. Maybe Rosanne would like to dance a little bit?
"Hey Rosanne, wanna go inside the dance club?" I asked her.
Rosanne turns her head to look at the building. "Sure, why not?"
Rosanne and I walk to the building. I take my arm off of her and open the door for her and let her go in first. She looks up at me and smiles. I smile back at her. I know we are gonna have a great time tonight.
Rosanne's POV:
Wow, that's the first time Dallas opened the door for me. He's been acting so nice to me- I love it!
We walk inside the club. We see so many happy couples dancing around, I guess that Dallas and I will blend right in.
Dallas puts his arms around my waist and puts his head close to mine so that our noses are touching. "Shall we dance, Rosanne?"
"We shall," I say back.
I honestly don't even know what to think anymore. I know I like Johnny, and I know I like Dallas. I don't know who I like more. I am okay with kissing Johnny, but I don't know if I'm okay with kissing Dallas, not gonna try it.
Dallas and I walk to the dance floor and we start to move our feet. Dallas grabs my hand and puts it in the air so he can spin me around. I let him spin me around and then he leans back and I follow. He leans back up and lift me up in the air. I'm not gonna lie, being in the air was scary…
Everyone in the club circles us and watches us dance and some of the couples cheer us on. Then a light went over us. Spotlight? Wow.
I move over and stand next to Dallas. Dallas took one of his arms and put it behind me. He took his other arm and put it in front of me. I grab his hand in front of me and Dallas twirls me around. Dallas and I still have our hands connected and we walk around the dance floor with our feet moving side to side. Dallas keeps spinning me around with my arm. I go next to Dallas with our hands still connected and we keep kicking our feet in and out. I am having so much fun!
The song ended and everyone cheered for us at the end. Dally and I have a huge smile on our faces. That was a lot of fun and would for sure dance with Dallas again.
"Dallas that was so much fun!" I say with a huge smile.
"Haha, yeah I had a lot of fun too," Dallas said. "We should do that more often."
"Sure," I say.
A slow song starts to play over the speakers. All the couples went together and started to slow dance with each other. Dallas and I looked at each other with wide eyes. Should we slow dance?
"Do you want to slow dance?" Dallas asked.
I look around. I mean, what could happen? Dallas and I are just friends right now, and Johnny and I are still friends.
"Why not," I say.
Dallas and I walk to each other. He puts his arms around my hips and I put my arms around his neck. Our bodies are not touching though. Dallas and I start to slowly dance. Dallas slowly pushes me closer into him. I don't mind right now. I put my head on his shoulder.
The club is now closed. Dallas puts his arm around me and we walk out of the building and it was pitch black outside. What time is it!? And I think Dallas is late for the big fight downtown.
"Dallas, I think you're late for the fight downtown," I say.
Dallas looks down at me with his big brown eyes. "Ah, who cares. You're more important than a fight."
I smile huge. I can't believe Dallas is skipping the whole fight just to be with me.
"Are you sure?" I ask. "You LOVE fighting!"
"Well, I love you-," Dallas said before he cut himself off.
My face turns bright red. "Wait, what?"
"Nevermind," Dallas said and looked down.
"No, no, no," I say. "It's okay."
Dallas looks up. "I probably just messed everything up."
"No you didn't," I say. "It's fine Dallas, trust me."
"You sure? You're not mad at me?" Dallas asked.
"I'm sure, and I'm not mad at you," I say.
"Good," Dallas said.
Dallas put his arm around me and we walk away. I really need time to think, maybe talk to Ponyboy about all this.
We've been walking around and talking, we eventually are very close to home. We see someone walking around in a pretty royal blue dress. Dallas turns his head toward her direction. "Dang girl."
I look up at him.
"Dang she's looking super hot in that dress," Dallas says quietly.
I look up at him and get angry. I throw his arm off me. "What in the world Dallas Winston?!"
Dallas doesn't answer me, he's still checking out the girl in the royal blue dress. "Hello? Dallas Winston? You there? How could you?"
The girl in the royal blue dress is out of sight.
"That hottie looks like Cherry Valance," Dallas said. "She's smokin' hot."
"Do I not exist?" I say while waving my hand in his face. "Why Dallas? I thought you really did love me and were trying to get me to be your girlfriend."
"Well, you did say we were just friends," he said.
"For now!" I start to raise my voice. "You know what Dallas, I was actually thinking about choosing you, but you just blew it!"
I walked toward the house. I open up the door and slam it behind me. I look up to see that Darry, Ponyboy and Johnny were in the living room.
"How was hanging out with Dallas?" Ponyboy asked.
"I hate him so much," I mumble underneath my breath.
"I told you Rosanne!" Darry rose up from the seat he's sitting in. "I told you that-."
"I KNOW! SHUT UP!" I yell and stomp off.
Dallas, you blew your chance. I want a loyal guy, not a guy to go around checking out other girls and saying they're hot.
