Lunch was over and we headed back in. Since there was no cars that need to be fixed or filled, Soda and Steve went in too. There was only one more hour left till my shift is over. We were cracking jokes and laughing till we herd someone outside yellin "I need someone to fill my tank up!". Soda went outside to do his thing. A girl walked in. She was a bit pale looking, has red hair and very thin arced eyebrows. She was a soc, I could tell. She handed me the paper that said $10 and given me that amount.

"Hey Two-bit. What are you doing here?" She started talking.

"Not having a job. What about you Cherry?" he replied. I was quiet but I was secretly listening to what they were saying.

"I'm okay. How's Ponyboy? He must be going thru a lot."

"He has his good and bad days. Mostly bad." Two-bit said. She nodded. "I understand. I got to go. See you around." she said as she was heading to the door. Once she left, I turned to Two-bit and cocked an eyebrow at him. "Who was she?" I asked.

"Me, Johnny, Dal' and Pony met her and her best friend at the double feature a while back. Dally left with anger, so it was just the 5 of us. It looked like her and Pony had a thing for each other." Two-bit chuckled.

"What?"

"You remember the super soc Johnny stabbed?"

"I herd of him but not sure who he was. Why?"

"That was Cherry's boyfriend. Hahaha, Johnny killed a soc. I knew it was in him. But any way, I'm not a big fan of her. She told Pony don't be mad or take personal if she doesn't talk to him at school."

"That's messed up.". A few more people came in and left. Before I know it was end of the day. The 3 of us waited for the next shift to arrived. Once they did, we left.
