Part of the gang Chpt. 8

I don't own the Outsiders!!!

(Booch's Pov)

We entered the dingo and found some empty tables to slide together. When the waitress came we were going to order our food but Dallas had to be smart and say something stupid.

"Hey there good looking." Dallas said leaning on the table to get a better view of the waitress. Then she walked away. "What did I say?" We all looked at him and started to laugh.

"Now who's gonna take our order?" Ponyboy asked, not trying to get Dallas mad. Then a different waitress came over. "Hey doesn't that look a little like…" Ponyboy said but the girl came over and began to ask us what we wanted.

"What would you guys want today?" She said taking a pen and a pad of paper out. She had red hair and looked really familiar, well at least that's what it looked like from the boys point of view.

I couldn't believe it! How could she…why would she…?

"Cherry?" Dallas asked staring at her. She looked at us and started to stare to.

"Oh my god…what are you guys doing here?!" She asked getting really worried.

"Trying to order food but were not getting any luck." Booch said beginning to get inpatient. Then we heard her stomach growl. "Yikes! Sorry guys didn't get anything to eat last night!" She said jumping in her seat from her stomach growling. We began to laugh and Cherry began to smile.

"What are you doing here Cherry?" Two-Bit said then he said, "This isn't a great place for a soc to be."

"Well I needed a job and… I'm trying to get away from Bob." Cherry said signing.

"What happened to you and Bob?" I asked her.

"I don't want to talk about it." She said looking down.

"Well good because…" Dallas began and looked around the table and heard our stomachs growl. "Were gonna need something to eat." Cherry laughed she sure was pretty but I knew she liked Dallas and not me. I wish she did though.

We got our food and ate it then we decided to catch a movie on the way their Dallas was pointing out all these girls that I should date, but the thing was I wanted a girl that I could trust like Booch but also a person that I would understand like Cherry. I felt so down but everybody else was so happy. Johnny has a girl, Two-Bit always has fun, Dallas likes to enjoy what's going on now, and Steve and Sodapop got their own girls. I felt so alone…until I heard someone calling our names. We turned around and we saw Cherry running over to us.

"Hey you guys is it alright if I tag along with you guys to see a movie?" She said I was kinda shocked because I didn't see this coming.

"Sure." Booch answered for me. "It gets kinda lonely when there's only one girl and six guys sometimes seven." She said, Cherry began to laugh, and we started to head to the drive-in…..again.

OK! Chapter 8 is finally finished!!!! Hope you enjoyed please review!!!!!!!!
