One Life..

Disclaimer: I do not own the outsiders or any right's to it. I only own the plot line and my character.

Tim was just holding me in his arms, and I desperately wanted to get away, maybe get him a new nurse. Everything was just crazy, I was going to be leaving the Sheppard house for a while, I sighed as I rubbed my face, I guess it's time to tell him I'll be staying with Darry for a bit to see how I like it. It defiantly didn't help the situation going on now, but he had to know.

Me- Tim… I don't know how to say this… But I won't be at the house for a while, I'm going to check out Darry's and it's not like you'll be home for a while, and I'd have no company really…

I could already tell by the look on his face this probably wouldn't end well, but he did something that actually shocked me, he just nodded as he let go and went to sit down…

Wow way to kick your best friend when he's down.

I Mentally kicked myself I could tell he was hurt, and I wasn't making it any better, so I walked up to him and sat down beside him, with a small sigh I looked at him

Me- I'm really sorry Timmy… I mean… if you really don't want me to, I… I could stay at the place alone..

It was Tim's turn to sigh as he rubbed his face with a frown shaking his head

Tim-No Baby doll, you go… Besides your safer with the gang since we both know I'll more than likely end up in Jail, but I swear if he hurts you, I'll kill him. I mean it Baby doll one wrong move, even in the cooler I know what's happening out here you understand?

Me- Yeah Timmy I understand… And I appreciate it. But you know if something seriously bad happens you'll always be the first one I run to, not Dally, not Darry, You.

Tim smiled and pulled me into a hug dragging us down on his bed as we laughed and smiled, making memories, we wouldn't have each other forever and we both knew it. Looking at the clock on his wall, I get up and rush out calling behind when he tried to ask where I was going, that I was clocking in and that I'd be right back, since I would be his main nurse until he left the hospitals care.

*FFW End of work day*

It had been a long day, had to run around checking on all the patients, because two of the nurses had been in a car accident on the way to work and were in the hospital so I got their patients since I was the only RN left on duty. I went and said good bye to Tim making sure he had everything he needed, and asking if he wanted anything brought to him, than leaving to pack up some things to stay a few nights at Darrys with all the boys. It would defiantly be weird since the last time she had hung out with the Curtis' was just before they found out that she had been sleeping with Buck for a place to stay and money… Money that she had been giving Darry… It had been 4 months since that day, only 3 months of dating Darry, and he was already wanting her to move in, she was skeptical, after everything that had happened to her, in New York and here, she wasn't ready to move in with him, she knew it was a mistake, but she knew she was safer with them, than in an empty house with no one else there to help protect me. Of course I could, but they'd probably have numbers on me, frowning with a sigh, finally Done packing.

First thing after unpacking grabbing a beer, chugging that back, than loading them in the car so they didn't go to waste, if she didn't drink them, Two bit would.

Finally arriving at the Curtis', I get out of the car and grab my bag and the beer and head inside putting the beer in the fridge and putting the bag down in the living room, Darry wasn't home from work yet, wow… Defiantly thought he'd beat me here, and hoping, t would be less awkward with him here, I mean last time I was here everyone pretty much exiled me, and then said sorry! Who the fuck does that, it pissed me off to no end that they had the nerve to do that! No Tim was right I have to move on and forget the past, but with all the shit that's happened its hard to, it's like it haunts me at all times, all the memories. The ones from New York were the worst… With everything that happened, with everything that Dally couldn't prevent because his boss said he couldn't I knew it killed him knowing he couldn't protect me, I'm pretty sure that's why we moved here, so he could take me away from it all, give us a new start, probably do it right this time. Hell we were close, than we were labeled greasers and the socs all tried jumping us, what no one knew… was that we actually had a lot of money from the gang that we had left behind us. We made tons of cash working for them. We made our choice to which life we would live, of course our lives were easier than the rest of theirs, but hey that wasn't my problem… I'm sure Dally would have hit me if he heard that comment, but he took to the Curtis gang, while I chose the Sheppard's outfit instead.. It was the type of gang I was use to, except they didn't use you in horrible ways, they never raped me, they took care of me, I was the baby, the one they would kill for, and I would do the same for my boys… Dally seems soft, not like that's a bad thing I guess, but he's letting his guard down and that's dangerous, we don't know if the gangs tracking us, or if they ever find us, we don't know what they'll do, the difference between me and my brother I'd live through it… The way he's going he might not, Not like I ever want to see that day ever happen. I want him to be safe and live a great life, not the life I've laid out for myself, I may have a great job, but outside of work, I'm probably putting half of those people in there, or making them disappear, not like anyone's noticed yet… Well besides the Sheppard's gang, but they help…
