Paul's POV
It was about 5:00AM when I woke up the next day for school. I yawned and got out of bed reminding myself that I should probably wake Kaila up before mom and dad start yelling, that always puts Kaila in a good mood… NOT! But I don't blame her, them fighting doesn't make me any happier either.
I groaned as I got up and made way through the hall to Kaila's door. I knocked on it twice then entered. There she was, asleep just like I thought!
"Kaila, get up," I kicked the side of her mattress on her bed and that jolted her awake.
"I am, I am." She said as she got up and out of her bed. I went back to my room and got ready for school.
--About 15 minutes later--
I started walkin' from the back hall where my room was, to the kitchen.
"A'right Kay!" I yelled. "Let's get goin'! Mom and Dad are gettin' up as I speak." I walked into the kitchen to find Kaila going worried after what I just said. I heard her cuss under her breath as she got up from the table in a hurry.
"Yea, then I say we gotta go and like, fast!" she told me.
"Why?" I said as I walked over to the fridge. I opened it up and saw it mostly empty except for milk, some eggs and a couple slices of tangy summer sausage, and right then I knew why she was in a hurry, no beer for dad. "Oh, that's why."
"Uh huh!" she said lookin' back towards the hall that our parents were comin' down and we ran like hell to the front door. We just got out as I heard the yellin' of our Dad's voice but I ignored it and kept walkin.
Ponyboy's POV
I walked down the street with Two-bit when I started hearin' people yellin'.
"Wonder what that is," Two-bit said. Just then Paul and Kaila came runnin' out their house.
"Hey Kaila, Paul," I said as we met up.
"Top 'o' the mornin' Ponyboy, fancy the day we are having here?" Kaila said in a bad Irish accent. I laughed along with Two-bit as Paul just raised one eyebrow and chuckled.
"Yea, as you can tell, I am not Irish," she said smiling.
"No shit!" I said still laughing. "So what was all that yelling coming from your house?"
"It's nothin, our dad got mad already," Paul answered. I nodded.
"Speakin' of yelling, what the hell was going on in your class yesterday Pone?" Two-bit asked me.
I looked at him. "I am taking a guess sayin' you heard," Two-bit nodded so I kept talkin', "Bunch of socs got bored, started flinging pencils and one hit me in the head so I flung it back and it hit Mrs. Burg. She completely forgot about the quadratic formula assignment." I told them.
"Ooo, quadratic formula, that's my cue," Kaila said as she turned around and started walkin the other way. Two-bit, Paul and me all laughed as Two-bit snatched her by the arm and she turned around and kept walking.
"Hey I don't blame you kid, but Paul here was to far away so I got ya for him." He said. Kaila smirked, laughed, and kept up with us. We walked up the steps to the front door of the school and entered. We could see the social groups of the city real clear here. Socs, middle and greasers, and when something like this happens, you can tell something big is gonna go on later. You can just feel it.
Two-bit's POV
"Hey Mikey!" I yelled towards the other guys. Pony, Kaila and Paul all left for their classes but I hate my first hour class so I usually skip it. "Hey Mikey, what's goin' on here?" I asked. He clearly knew what I was talking about.
"Socs will be socs, they are just tryin to scare us shitless, they have nothin planed." Mikey told me.
"Alright then," I said goin to my locker.
