We stood in the lot waiting for the Socs to show. Were talking to Tim's gang. Tim was gabbing on about how Curly Sheppard is in a reformatory school. About 5 to 6 Soc cars pulled up. Gangs of 11 or 12 came out.

"Hello Darrel"

"Paul."

I realized that the blond was Paul Holden. He had been the best halfback on Darry's football team at high school and he and Darry used to buddy it around all the time.

"I'll take you"

"Hey it's not a fight without us!" I looked over to see Dally,Soda, and Johnny. I wasn't paying attenion to the Socs anymore, so a scrawny little bastard uppercutted me in the jaw. Now the Rumble was on.

-JPOV-

I watched Pony get tackled by 5 Socs, I thought it would be smart to jump on one. I jumped on the tallest ones back. Swinging at his face. Next thing I know I hear Darry yelling we won. One by One the Socs ran.

"You hear that Pony! We won." Dally grabbed my shoulder, and nodded towards Soda. We headed to the car.

"Dal slow down, your going to get pulled over." I just had to open my mouth.

*WEE WOO WEE WOO WEE WOO*

"Act like your sick! Both of you!" Dally growled out.

The policeman looked disgusted. "All right, buddy, where's the fire?"

"These kids" Dally jerked a thumb toward me and Soda"they fell over on a motorcycle and I'm takin' them to the hospital."

I groaned, so did Soda, It wasn't all fake. i'm i

The fuzz changed his tone. "Is he real bad? Do you need an escort?"

"How would I know if he's bad or not? I ain't no doc. Yeah, we could use an escort." And as the policeman got back into his car I heard Dally hiss, "Sucker!"

We arrived at the hospial, we ran to Rosie's room. We were so excited to tell her we won, even if she's still unconcious.

"We did Rosie bear, we beat the damn Socs for what they did to ya. Now all ya gotta do is wake up baby girl" Soda had a few tears fall from his eyes. He really cared about Rosaline. She was like a little sister to him. They were close, kinda the same with me. I can't lose Rosie..She the only one that really ever showed much common intrest in stuff.

"Yea baby, we won. You gotta wake up, so we can celebrate." Dally looked hurt, sad?, Dallas Winston sad? Wait is he going to cry? Golly..he must really love her. Everything was silent, but a certain sound made our heads snap up.

*Beeepppppppppppppppppp _/\_*

"Wh...what's happen ya guys! Rosie!" I was scared. No she can't die! No! If she dies I don't know what I'll do. i'll...i'll kill myself! A doctor, and nurse rushed in.

"You three need to leave now" She shoved us out of the room, and rushed back. All we could hear is the doc yellin "CLEAR!"

"That's what you get for tryin' to help people, you little punk, that's what you get... Dammit Rosaline! Don't die, please don't die" He was sobbing. He hit the wall, then suddenly bolted out the door. Soda, and I sat there for a while, until the nurse came out.

"She's awake, she sure is a fighter, You can see her now" We rushed into the room, she's alive.

"Hey guys" Her voice sounded hoarse.

" God..we thought we lost you Rosie!" I sobbed, Soda just went up and hugged her"

"I'm here guys, um wait where's Dal..I heard him..I was following his voice..Guys where is Dally?!" You could hear the panick in her voice.

"He...he lost it, he thought you were dead..he bolted out the door. Rosie he's gonna blow!" Soda was ballin now.

"Soda..Johnny...He going to do somthing stupid, knowing him I think I know where he went. I need you to help me out of here before he dies, or goes to prison!"

"But.." I rubbed my neck. I looked over to see janitors, with a huge laundry basket.

"I got an idea.. Soda come with me"

-SPOV-

Golly I can't believe me and Johnny-cakes just did that.

"Get in Rosie..." She got in to the basket, we put towels over he so no one would see. We decided to go out the back exit so no one would get suspicous, we didn't even have time to stop before she jumped out of the cart, she sprinted down the road. I just stared at Johnny. Where was she going?

-DPOV-

'Rosie died...she left me...I didn't even have a chance to tell her I loved her'. I stood by the magazine rack, just flippin through pages. I got an idea. I started ripping the pages of the magazine up.

"Hey...Hey! you have to pay for that!" Shut up you damn bastard. Just shut up!

I walked up to the cash register..I reached into my pocket... then I heard my name being called. It can't be..

-RPOV-

"DALLAS WINSTON DON'T YOU DARE!" I ran through the doors, huffing..god i'm out of shape. I ran up to him jumped into his arms. "Don't do it Dal..you'll leave me, and i'll be all alone..." I looked up to him, I kissed his lips, at first he didn't kiss back. Probably in shock at the moment but after a couple of minutes He kissed back.

"You..your alive, how?"He was still shocked.

"Um..is someone going to pay for this. I took some money out of Dal's I just happened to be in a hospital nightgown. Oh boy. I threw the money on to the counter.

"Let's go Dal..I'll explain on the way back home." We headed towards my house. I explained what happened. I never thought I'd see the day Dallas Winston crys. He wouldn't stop kissing me and hugging me, but hey whose complaining. We arrived at the Curtis' house. I ran through the front door.

"HEY EVERYBODY!" They all turned towards me, execpt Soda, and Johnny of course.

"ROSIE!" I got a group hug. WOOO! After explainging the whole mess, I found my self falling asleep in Dallas's arms.

"Let's go to bed."

"Night ya'll"

"Night Rosie!"

"NO FUNNY BUSSNIESS" Ahh how embrassing, dammit Soda,and Johnny! I crawled in bed next to Dal.

"I love you Rosaline" I was shocked. Did Dal just say he loved me? Thee Dallas Winston?

"I love you to Dally" I leaned up to kiss him!

I'm glad I woke up to stop him.
