Dallas' POV

I couldn't believe Alison was back in my life. I haven't seen her since I was 7 and I missed her a lot. She was so beautiful, just like in the pictures I would look at from time to time. They were pictures of when we were little and having tons of fun. I always seemed to be smiling in the pictures, and now a days I don't smile at all since I'm barely ever happy. We did everything together as kids and my mom always thought we would get together when we were older. I sure do miss my mom, she was the best and she was so sweet. Anyway enough about my fucking feelings, I'm taking Alison to meet the guys. I walked in the Curtis house and saw all the guys just sitting around. Soda and Steve were arm wrestling, Two-bit was of course watching Mickey Mouse, Darry was sitting in his arm chair while reading the paper. Pony was sitting on the couch reading his book and Johnny was just sitting on the couch, watching the tv. All the guys, except Pony, looked up when they heard the door slam shut. "Hey Dal, who's the broad?" Steve asked. "This is Alison, she was my best friend when I was little and living in California." I said. "You lived in California?" Soda asked. "Yes that's what I just said." I said. "For how long?" Two-bit asked. I never really have told them about my life, they would ask from time to time but I never told them anything. "7 years." I said. "Why'd ya move?" Steve asked. "My life is none of your guys business." I said. "Don't be so rude Dal." Alison said. I just nodded and mumbled a 'sorry' and the guys all gave me weird looks. "Did you just apologize and let a girl tell you what to do?" Steve asked, surprised. "What? No, I don't let anyone tell me what to do, especially a girl and for sure don't fucking apologize to anyone." I said, defending myself. "Who the hell are you? Because you're sure as hell not the same Dallas Winston I did everything with when I was a little girl." Alison said. "Yea well things have changed Alison. I'm not the same guy you remember." I said. "Yea, I can see that." Alison said. "Wait, I wanna know what & year old Dallas Winston was like." Soda said and everyone nodded in agreement, even Johnny. "I'm not telling you about my life." I said. "Oh come on Dal, you all know about our lives, but all we know about yours is that you were arrested at the age of 10 for the first time." Two-bit said. "I'll tell them if you won't." Alison said. "Ok fine, I'll tell ya about my life up until I was 7." I said. "What about the other 11 years?" Steve asked. "That's a story for another time." I said. "Alright." Steve said. "Ok so when I lived in California, my mom was alive. My parents were together and happy and I had a great life. Alison was my best friend and we did practically everything together and lived 2 houses away from each other. I was smart, popular, athletic, loving, caring and as Alison and every girl in my class liked to say, I was pretty hot. I smiled a lot, especially around Alison. My mom died about a month after I turned 7 and my dad packed all our things and moved us to New York. Now that's all I'm saying for now." I said.

Sodapop's POV

As I listened to Dally talk about his life in California I saw his eyes softened. Usually his blue eyes are cold, hard, emotionless and filled with hatred of the world. Now when he was talking about his life as a kid, they melted, but once he finished they went right back to the cold, hard, hatred filled rocks. "Where in California did ya live?" Steve asked. "San Francisco." Dally said. We all just nodded and I wondered about the rest of Dally's life, like what happened when he moved to New York. "Dally will you please tell us what happened after California?" I asked, wanting to know more. "Yea, I wanna know too." Alison said. "Like I said, that's a story for another day." Dally said. "When?" Two-bit asked. "When Two-bit stops watching Mickey." Dally said. "Well that's never, I guess." Two-bit said and chuckles. "I can't wait that long." I said. "Alright fine, I'll tell ya in a couple weeks, maybe I'll even show ya a few pictures of when I lived in Cali." Dally said and I smiled. "You still have pictures of then?" Alison asked. "Of course I do, I wasn't gonna leave 'em with my ol' man." Dally said. Alison smiles at Dally. "Good, I know how important those pictures were to you." Alison said. Dally nods. Alison sure is pretty, I would even ask her out when I got to know her more. But I'm pretty sure Dally really likes her, so unless I wanna get my head kicked in I'm just gonna be good friends with her.

Steve's POV

I swear when Dally was talking about his life in California, he didn't look like he hated the world and he didn't look so heartless. It looked like he loved his life when he lived in California, but than again he said his family was happy and still together, so who wouldn't want that? I would love it if my folks were still together and my dad didn't kick me out once a week. I'm sure Johnny would love it if his parents caredand didn't beat him every time he goes home. I know the Curtis brothers would love it if their parents were still alive. Two-bit only has his mom and sister, we really never did hear about what happened to his dad.
