Cherry was walking down the street, waiting for Bob. Sandy and Bob were in the drive-in. Cherry didn't dare go in, for fear of what she would see them doing. She still didn't like the way they were using each other. But the way she sees them look at each other when she's around them. It just explains that there's more there. Bob is getting really serious about her.
"Hey. Remember me?" Cherry whipped around to find Dallas behind her.
"Oh, you. Yea. Unfortunately, I do," Cherry said, and turned back around.
"If you think Bob's really got it for ya, your wrong. He's in there right now,"
"I know. He promised to meet me out here after," Cherry stated matter-of-factly.
"He just told Sandy he loved her. Now, it's my turn to be in love," He mocked those last two words. Dallas was so pissed at all the lovey-dovey shit going on between all the greasers, and now even a greaser and a soc, so he didn't even know what he was doing.
"I love ya, Cherry," He laughed, trying to mock all the others.
"Yea. Well, I can't return that." Cherry said, though she knew she was giving in fast. She had always favored Dallas.
Dallas chuckled once before he leaned down to kiss her.
Two-Bit was walking the streets. He had nothing better to do. He lived near the drive-in, so it would be easier to just go to the drive-in. Maybe Sodapop was there. Two-Bit had been suspicious about Soda and Suzy since that night at the drive-in when they were holding hands. Maybe they were there. Two-Bit quickened his pace, trying to get there before the movie got over. They never really watched the movies. They just hung around, did nothing, interrupted everyone, and were really rude, in Dallas' case.
He was near the drive-in. He could probably sneak in under the fence like Dallas'. They got so used to it that they didn't even bother thinking about it. He was coming closer to the area. Dallas' normally hung around there, waiting to catch people to talk to or start fights with.
He saw two figures under the streetlight right near the fence. He didn't know who it was, and didn't care. You saw greasers kissing all the time here.
Then, Two-Bit spotted Dally's car. He didn't try to break up the kiss, which was obviously Sylvia and Dallas, as he thought. He was real quiet as he came behind Dallas. He wanted to surprise him. When he got close enough to see the two people, he realized that the girl had.....red hair.
It was Cherry, he thought.
"Dally!" Two-Bit screamed. "You know she's a soc!"
Dallas didn't even bother to pull away. He didn't notice Two-Bit coming almost as much as he didn't notice Sandy and Bob coming.
Both Two-Bit and Dallas heard Sandy say, "Oh, hey, that's Dallas. Let's go see him."
Dallas still didn't pull away. He wanted to show Bob that he could get any girl he wanted.
"Dallas, is that you?" Sandy's quiet whisper interrupted the kiss.
"Yea," He said after pulling away from Cherry. She was surprised. She had seen it coming. She didn't want Bob to see it, but she couldn't resist it when Dallas pulled her into his arms. They both turned to Bob.
"Cherry, what the hell are you doing?"
"Dallas, what the hell are you doing?" Two-Bit said after.
"Kissing the girl I love," He chuckled, and Cherry giggled.
Bob was outraged. He looked at Cherry. "And you're not going to argue that?"
"No, I told you that if I saw him again, I might fall in love with him," She said, leaning into Dallas.
Dallas didn't love her. She was just the only girl around that was free.
"But you're with me!" Bob yelled, throwing Sandy aside.
"Hey, bud, you were just telling Sandy that you loved her!" Dallas spoke up, ready to pull his knife out. The police hadn't found it the last time they checked him, which they did weekly.
"Yea, I do," Bob said, aiming right at Cherry, then he pulled Sandy back into his arms, tight.
"Well, then, back off!" Dallas hissed.
"You love Sandy?" Cherry was amazed. She knew something like this was going to happen.
Two-Bit was still standing there. "This whole thing is getting really confusing. First Suzy is in love with Soda but Soda's not. Then Soda and her are deeply in love. Then Bob, the soc, and Sandy, the greaser, are both in love. Then, Dallas is in love with a soc too. You guys are too confusing, I'm outta here!"
"Soda is in love with Suzy?" Sandy was amazed too. This was tearing the soc and the greaser friendship apart.
"Yes," Two-Bit said, before he left.
"Well, I'm in love with Bob!" She yelled after him.
That made Two-Bit turn. The sound of jealousy in her voice. "Will you guys just stop trying to get back at each other?! That's all this is. You're not really in love. You're trying to get back at the ones you really love," He shook his head, and softened his tone. "You are the ones that are tearing apart these friendships." Then he walked off.
Nobody saw Two-Bit for a while after. That all gave them a bit to think about, except Dallas. Dallas was going after Cherry 'cause she was free, and he was the only one that wasn't in love. The only thing that kept them linked to each other after what Two-Bit said was the anger to each other's loved ones.
Two-Bit didn't see the greasers for a while.
