"Did you hear about Bruce and the Stoll Twins?"

This was the widest talked subject in school today. The gruesome story of their attacker and how Connor witnessed everything but he was scared to silence. It's the most interesting news in Tulsa since the...accident.

"Now I know the recent news with our beloved students but we must get back to work," Draco sighs and grabs his textbook, "Did everybody read their 10 pages last night? We have that important test today."

There was a chorus of groans and people grabbing their textbooks, trying to cram everything in one go.

Draco starts to rub his temple, "Maybe we should postpone the test for tomorrow since everybody seems tense."

"Can you blame us," Kate said, "Our friends were jumped LAST NIGHT."

"I bet you it was one of those damn greasers," Martin hissed in my direction. I slide low into my seat .

"It would make sense," Dylan grumbled, " they are bunch cowardly people who seem to like jumping kids at night for no apparent reason."

I slid lower and lower in my chair as the kids in my class got up from their chairs and walked towards me.

"HEY!"

We all turned our heads towards the front of the room where Draco was gripping his desk with his hands, his face red with fury, his eyes the color of molten lava.

"I don't give a rat's ass about socs and greasers. I will NOT tolerate this behavior in my classroom. Do I make myself clear?"

Everybody nodded their heads and returned back to their seats. Draco breathed in and smoothed out his suit. He glared at everybody.

"We will continue with our lesson but remember our test tomorrow."

The bell ranged everybody left the classroom. I was grabbing my backpack when there was a hand on my shoulder. I looked over and saw Draco.

"Hi," I whispered.

"Hi."

He caressed my cheek with the back of his hand. His eyes turned back to their regular emerald green. He gave me a smile.

"You should defend yourself."

"I can't."

"Why?"

"Darry would be pissed if I fought at school."

Draco pursed his lips and frowned, his hand stopped touching my cheek.

"Even in self defense?"

"Even in self defense."

"That sounds like a bad idea," Draco started to chuckle, " Garçon stupide , stupide Idea."

I glared at him, "Don't say that about my brother."

Draco looked down at me,,"I apologize. I didn't mean to harm you." He went down on one knee and grabbed my left hand. He put it on his chest and seemed to do a little pray and he soon kissed it.

"What was that for?"

"Protection."

"Um okay."

The late bell rang and I jumped. I ran out…

but before i did…

…

…

I kissed him on the lips.

"Oh come on Darry. Why can't I go to the movies? " The new disney movie Peter Pan came out and I could get extra credit in English if I go watch it (I read the book for my summer assignment).

"No and that's final. There is a killer on the loss and I'm not letting you go out by yourself."

I whined, "Why can't someone in the gang take me?"

"Pony, we can't just drop everything so you can do something for you. Steve and Soda are working a late shift, Dally is with Johnny, and Two-Bit, well, Two-Bit won't even go if he was sober."

I stomped my foot, "That's not fair."

"It's fair. Now stop with this little tantrum you're having and get over it."

I glared daggers at Darry. I turned on my heel going to the stairs when the phone rang.

"Um-Curtis Residence."

"Need a ride to the movies?"

My eyes widen and hide my smile, "Yeah, I do."
