Caroline's POV
I'm almost ready for the prom. I put in my earrings and checked myself in the mirror. I heard Rose laughing from the living room. Soda is here with Rose. Soda is going to drop me off at Cherry's and then him and Rose are going to Buck's. Well my parents think they're going to see a late movie.
I put on some perfume then walked out of my room to go to my parent's room. Their door was slightly open I went to walk in but I heard my mom say something.
"Dave are you sure you made the right decision with Caroline?"
What decision?
"Yes I did Marie. It was the right call." He said.
"Caroline has just been so upset for the last two months. Even now, it's her prom and she can't even enjoy it." Said my mom.
I thought I was a better actress. I thought I convinced my parents that I'm okay.
"She's young. She doesn't understand that Dally is not a good match for her. I did the right thing, honestly I'm surprised he listened to me. Dally never does." Said my dad.
I flung open the door.
"What did you tell Dallas?" I asked furiously.
Both of my parents looked at me in shock.
"It was for your own good." Said my dad sternly.
"What did you say to him?" I asked again.
"It doesn't mat-"
"What did you say?" I ask getting frustrated.
"I told Dally that he wasn't any good for you! That he couldn't offer you anything, that you are going to college and can meet boys that are a better influence than that criminal!" Said my dad.
I closed my eyes. Dallas dumped me because my dad told him to.
"For the past two months I believed that Dallas actually used me, I believed that he didn't care about me but I now I see it was all you. You're the one who ruined my relationship with him. This may be hard to believe but Dallas did treat me right. I can't believe you did this to me!" I yelled furiously and turned around to start walking down the steps.
I ignored my parents calling me from up the steps.
"Soda we're leaving now!" I said furiously as I put on my shoes.
Soda and Rose got up confused.
"Soda you're not taking her anywheres!" Yelled my dad.
Soda looked conflicted but Rose grabbed his hand. We put on our shoes and we went outside.
"What happened?" Asked Rose.
We got in the car.
"Soda did my dad tell Dallas to break up with me?" I asked.
Soda sighed. "Yeah he did."
Soda backed out of my driveway.
"Was everything you told me about Dallas a lie?" I asked.
"Yeah, he hasn't even looked at a girl since you two broke things off." He answered.
Rose glared at him. "Why would you lie?"
"Dally made me to. He wanted Caroline to think he's a dick. Where am I going?" He asked.
"Take a left here, we're going to go to Cherry's first. I have to tell her I'm not going to the prom." I said.
Soda nodded and followed my directions. When we made it to Cherry's I got out of the car and rung the doorbell.
"Caroline! You look so good!" Exclaimed Cherry when she opened the door.
"So do you but I have something to tell you."
I told her everything that happened. I told her that my dad told Dallas to dump me and that I have to go talk to Dallas.
"I understand you have to go get your man." Smiled Cherry.
I laughed. "Honestly I think I'm going to hit him instead."
Cherry laughed. "I should probably get going. Good luck with Dallas."
"Thanks and by the way, I know James doesn't have a date so if you want you can go with him. I don't care." I said.
"We'll see."
I walked back in the car and told Soda we're going to wherever Dallas is. Soda nodded and drove out of there. I'm so mad at Dallas right now. I can't believe he lied to me. He broke my heart so much. He just left me. After about 10 minutes we made it to Soda's house. We got out of the car. Soda walked into the house first.
"Dally you got company!" Yelled Soda.
"Who?" I heard Dallas yell back.
I walked into the living room and saw Dallas and everyone stare at me with wide eyes. Everyone is here.
"Dallas I need to talk to you alone." I said furiously.
"Missed me too much doll?" Smirked Dallas. "You know my bed is always open for you-"
"Oh shut the fuck up Dallas! I'm not here to listen to your bullshit, what's going to happen is that the only way you're going to speak is if you man up and stop lying to me."
Dallas got up and boy did he look mad. I could see it in his eyes. Usually when Dallas gets mad like this I try to calm down but I'm more mad than he is so nothing is going to calm me down.
"Who the fuck do you think you are? Coming in here like you're all tough. What's going to happen is that you're going to walk out that front door because I'm not in the mood to deal with a bitch like you." Glared Dallas.
I rolled my eyes. "Can everyone please get out?"
"Why do they have to leave? They can stay, you can leave." Said Dallas.
"Im not going anywhere and trust me Dallas the way I'm feeling you don't want them to stay." I said.
"Come on guys lets give them some privacy." Said Darry.
Everyone started to walk outside. Johnny gave me a small smile as he walked out of the door.
"Why did you break up with me?" I asked.
"Still hung up over that? I used you Caroline-"
"Bullshit!" I yelled. "I know you're lying to me! Tell me the real reason why you did!"
"I am! You're just too fucking stupid to believe it!" yelled back Dallas.
"I don't believe it cause it's not true! I know why you dumped me!"
"Then why did I?" He asked sarcastically with an eye roll.
"My father told you too! He told you that you were no good for me and that I could find someone that could offer me things that you couldn't!" I said angry.
Dallas took a step closer to me. We were only a few inches apart.
"That's bullshit. I dumped you because I wanted to. I never liked you Caroline." He said harshly.
I shook my head. "You're still playing this game aren't you? I'm so sick of your lies! Tell me the truth Dallas! Tell me the fucking truth I want to hear it from you!"
"I did! I fucking used you-"
"Fuck you Dallas! You have hurt me so many times in the past! You've called me every name there is, you've lied to me, you've hurt me so many times but the worse thing you've ever done to me was break up with me! You put me through hell! I've been so hurt for the past two months! I couldn't believe that you dumped me because you used me but now that I learned the truth you're still lying to me! You're such a bitch! I just hate you so fucking much Dallas! I wish you never came into my life!" I yelled.
Dallas looked at me in shock, he didn't expect me to blow up like that.
"You're not even worth my time, why am I wasting my prom night over you?" I said as I spun on my heel and walked out the door.
Dally's POV
"Where the fuck do you think you're going?" I asked furiously as I followed her outside.
The gang looked at us in confusion.
"You think you can come in here and yell at me then leave! Who the fuck do you think you are?" I asked Caroline as I grabbed her arm and spun her around.
"Why did you lie to me Dallas? Why did you listen to my father?" Asked Caroline. "You never listen to him, why did you pick this time?"
"I didn't listen to him, I was doing the right thing." I said.
"You listened to him! You fucking listen to him!" Yelled Caroline. "You know what fucking hurts? You didn't fight for us! You would fight for your friends but not for me! The second my father said something you left me, you left me like it was nothing. You gave up. It was easy isn't it?"
"Caroline break up with you wasn't easy. It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do and I didn't do this to hurt you, I did cause you can do better! Fucking look at me Caroline!" I yelled. "You deserve better!"
Caroline rolled her eyes. "That's my father talking! When did you decide to listen to him? Tell me the real reason why you did this!"
"Fuck off Caroline." I said as I went to turn around but she grabbed my arm.
"I'm not missing my prom for this! You're going to be a man and tell me why you did this!" She said.
"I'm not doing this with you." I said.
"Why is it because your friends are here? Do you really care about your reputation that much?" Said Caroline as she crossed her arms.
"I'm not doing this with you." I said again.
I can't tell her the real reason. I just can't. I've never said this to anyone before.
"Yes you are! You better tell me now or I'm leaving and I promise you that this is the last time you'll ever see me." Said Caroline.
"This is getting so fucking stupid." I said.
Caroline rolled her eyes. "Wrong answer."
Caroline turned around. I noticed the sunset as she walked away from me. What the fuck am I doing?
"You really want to know the real reason?" I asked.
Caroline turned around to face me. "Yes."
I sighed and said for only her to hear. "I fucking love you! I did this because I love you! I love you so much that I would give you up because you deserve better. There's nothing I could offer you. I don't deserve you at all."
Caroline walked closer to me. My heart is pounding. She put her hands on my chest. I saw the tears in her eyes.
"That's all I wanted to hear." She said softly. "Dally forget everything my dad told you and listen to me. I don't want any other guys, they don't have anything I want. The only guy I want is you, you have everything I want. I love you too Dally."
I put my hands on her waist and kissed her. Caroline wrapped her arms around my neck. I heard the gang starting to cheer. Caroline pulled back laughing. I didn't even notice a tear roll down my face until Caroline used her thumb to wipe it off.
"I'm so sorry doll, for everything." I said softly and pulled her in a tight hug.
"Don't ever do that again. Dally I missed you so much." She said as she cried in my shoulder.
"I missed you too doll."
Everything was perfect until I saw a car pull up and Caroline's dad is the one driving.
