Caroline's POV

The rumble is about to start right now. I'm in the living room with my mom and Rose. Rose and I looked at each other uneasy. We're both scared for tonight. We don't want anyone to get hurt.

All of a sudden we heard the doorbell ring.

"Caroline can you go get that?" Asked my mom.

"Sure."I said as I got up.

I went to the door and open the door

"Blake? What are you doing here?" I asked confused.

"Can you come outside for a minute?" He asked.

I nodded and stepped outside closing the door slightly behind me.

Blake looks upset and confused. "Caroline I know I'm suppose to be at the rumble but I can't go knowing that."

"That what?" I asked.

"James got super jealous when he saw you with Dally and he brought a." Blake sighed. "A gun with him to the rumble."

My eyes widen. "Why?"

"I don't know!" He exclaimed. "I'm scared that he's going to do something he's going to regret and you're the only one I can think of who can get him out of this. I can drive you and Rose down."

I promised Dally I wouldn't go but I have to.

"I'll get her." I said.

"Okay I'm just going to use the pay phone over there." Said Blake.

"You want to use our house phone?" I asked.

Blake shook his head. "Just get Rose I won't be long."

I nodded and went back inside.

"Rose, everyone is hanging out tonight and Blake is in the car with Cherry and Marcia. We're meeting everyone at Archie's house. Can we go mom?" I said.

"Of course honey, you girls have fun." Said my mom.

Rose looked at me confused but got up.

"We won't be too late." I said.

My mom nodded.

Rose and I put on our jackets and went outside as Rose closed the door I explained it her everything Blake just told me.

"James is crazy." Said Rose.

Blake is in his car waiting for us. When we got in Blake sped out of there. I feel absolutely terrible. I hope James doesn't do anything stupid.

Dally's POV

I punched one of the Socs in the face getting him out of my way. I lost James. I had him at the start but throughout the rumble some Soc got me from behind and James got away.

I grabbed the Soc from his shirt. "Where's James?"

The Soc rolled his head back in pain. I pushed him to the ground and went to find James. I knocked out a few Socs on the way and then I eventually found him.

James looked at me. I wiped the blood coming from my lips and I charged after him.

"Lets go greaser." Said James.

I tackled him to the ground, punching him. James pushed me off and he got up kicking me in the stomach.

"Come on greaser!" Yelled James as he kicked me.

I got up and punched James straight in the face. James stumbled backwards in pain.

"You think you get away for what you did to Caroline?" I asked as I punched him in the stomach.

"What about to me?" I asked as I pushed him to the ground. I lifted James' head and then punched him in the face.

I looked at my bleeding knuckles. James lifted his head and I saw his bloody nose. James tried to get away as I kicked him. We started to get far away from the rumble. I got a pretty good look out there. This had to be the biggest rumble that Tulsa has ever seen.

I pulled James's head and punched him again. I looked up and saw a car pulling in. James looked up and saw the car.

"Caroline got my message." I heard him say.

"What the fuck did you say?" I asked.

Just then I saw Caroline running towards me and Rose is trailing behind her.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" I yelled at Caroline completely pissed off.

James was about to get up but I kicked him back down. James grunted in pain.

"Blake told me that James has a gun on him and I couldn't-"

"You promised me that you weren't going to come!" I yelled.

"Dally! Blake told me James has a gun!" She yelled.

I picked James up by the shirt and looked in his pockets, no gun.

"No he doesn't." I said.

I saw James smirked.

"What are you smirking at?" I asked.

Just then I heard police sirens. Who the fuck called the police? Why would Blake tell Caroline James has a gun?

"If I can't have Caroline neither can you." Said James weakly. "When her dad sees you with her it's over."

It clicked. James' plan was to get Caroline and I caught.

I punched James hard in the nose, breaking his nose. I saw police coming breaking the fight.

"Where's Soda?" Asked Rose as she was about to go in there.

I grabbed her arm pulling her back. "What the fuck do you think you're going? You can't go in there!"

"Dally he can't get caught by the police! They'll split Soda, Darry and Pony up!" Exclaimed Rose.

I groaned. She's right. "I'll get him, you two stay right here."

They nodded and I went into the rumble. I tried to avoid the police and other fights going on. I saw Darry and grabbed him from his shoulder.

Darry almost punched me but I dodged it.

"Darry where's Soda and Pony?" I asked.

"I don't know! I'm trying to find them." Said a stressed out Darry. "If you find them tell them to go straight to the house."

I nodded. "You have to go."

"I can't leave without them!" Yelled Darry.

I rolled my eyes. I scanned the fight trying to find Pony and I did. A Soc had him. I went straight up to them, turned the Soc around and punched him straight in the face. I pushed Pony to Darry.

"Go home, I'll find Soda." I said.

Darry nodded grabbing Pony and running out of there.

Someone grabbed my shoulder and spun me. I almost punched them but realize it's Soda.

"Dally where's Pony and Darry?"asked Soda.

"On their way home but Rose and Caroline are here. We got to go." I said.

Soda nodded and we started to get out of there. We pushed people out of the way and went to where Caroline and Rose are. James is long gone.

Soda went straight to Rose. "What are you doing here?"

"Long story." Said Rose.

Caroline looked in the rumble. I looked behind me and saw police everywhere arresting Socs and greasers.

"There's my dad." Said Caroline as she pointed to him.

"Lets go Caroline before he sees us." I said.

Caroline nodded just as we were about to leave, Dave grabbed this greaser from the Shepherd's gang. This greaser pulled out his switchblade and stabbed Dave right in the gut.

"Dad!" Screamed Caroline and Rose.

Before Soda and I could grab them they ran straight to their dad.

"Fuck off." I yelled and chased after them.

Caroline and Rose sat down next to their dad. Soda and I joined them.

"Girls what are you doing here?" Asked weakly Dave.

When Dave saw me his eyes went wide.

"Should've known." He muttered.

"Dally we have to get him to a hospital." Said Caroline almost in tears.

I nodded.

"Soda you should get home." I said. "They could still arrest you. Just get out of here and don't let the police catch you."

Soda nodded then got up.

"I'll meet you guys at the hospital." Said Soda.

I nodded. Soda ran out of here. I started to help Dave up. He got stabbed pretty deep. I wrapped his arm around my shoulder and helped him walk up to the police cars. On our way up I saw James getting in Blake's car. He looked us with wide eyes seeing what his plan did to Caroline's and Rose's dad.

"What the hell happened?" Asked one of the officers.

"Chief got stabbed." I said.

"Didn't think I'll ever see Dally helping a police officer." Said the officer as he grabbed Dave.

I wrapped my arm around Caroline.

"Everything will be fine baby." I said.

Caroline put her head on my chest and started to cry.

I kissed the top of her head.

"We'll take you guys to the hospital. We'll call your mother too." Said the officer.

I nodded. Looks everyone is going to find out about our relationship.
