Chapter 6

I wake up feeling a little off, I hope I wasn't getting sick. I rolled over and seen Soda was just waking up too.


"Morning" He says, I must admit that his morning voice is very sexy. I smile and say good morning back.


"So where did you go last night anyway?" He asks rubbing his eyes and sitting up.


"Dally took me to the drive in" I replied, just remembering the kiss. I automatically smiled when the image popped into my mind. Soda nodded and smiled. He took some clothes out of his closet and went to the bathroom to change.


I got out of bed and made it neatly, Soda isn't great at that. I took my hair brush out of my suitcase and ran it down through my thick blonde hair. It was getting really long, I'm going to have to get it cut. I put it back into a french braid then picked out my clothes. I chose a purple t-shirt, old ripped jeans and converse.


I walked out to the living room and stopped in my tracks. Dally was sitting on the couch with Soda. My heart was beating, I felt awkward now. I went to the fridge where Pony was and asked him to make me an egg. I walked back out to the living room and there was a knock on the door, Dally stood up and answered it, it was Sandy.


"Soda, we need to talk" She says walking up to his face after he stood up. She looked really nervous, and Soda looked a little nervous too. I sat down in the middle of Dally and Johnny and tried not to be rude and listen.


"Soda, I have something to tell ya" She says avoiding eye contact. Soda nodded and crossed his arms.


"I'm ah, I'm pregnant Soda" He said. That made everyone shoot their heads toward them, even Pony popped out of the kitchen. Soda seemed really excited.


"Sandy, we are going to have a baby, thats great!" Soda says in excitement.


"Soda.. It's not yours" She slowly said looking down at the ground.


"Christ sake" Dally whispered. Soda looked so hurt.


"Get out" He whispered loud enough for her to hear.


"I'm sorry Soda" She said and left. I left so bad for Soda, he loved her so much, I could tell. He never moved from where he was standing. Pony comes out of the kitchen and hugs him, I think he was crying now. Dally gets up and hugs him after Pony lets go.


"I'm sorry man" Dally says patting his back.


Steve walked in and pulled Soda out to go to work. He must be wrecked, I know I would be. Everyone was awkwardly hanging around the living room after we all ate breakfast. Two-bit decided to take Johnny somewhere, so it was just Pony, Dally and I.


"Let's go to the Dingo" Dally says. Pony and I agree, even though I had no clue what that was. We walk down the street and Dally holds my hand again. I didn't feel so awkward now. Pony looked down at our hands and smiled. We reached the place, which I assume was the Dingo. It was similar to the place where we got the burgers.


"Kaitlyn!" Pony says and walks over to a table where a girl was sitting. She was wearing old jeans and a sweatshirt, with her hair back in a braid like mine, she must have been a greaser too.


"Who's that?" I ask Dally as we got in line for food.


"Pony's girlfriend" He says moving up the line. I kept looking over at Pony and Kaitlyn. They seemed happy. Dally ordered and paid for our food then we sat down at the opposite side of the table as Pony and Kaitlyn.


"Kaitlyn, this is our friend Hannah, she's living with us" Pony says introducing me to her.


"Hi, nice to meet you!" She said smiling.


"You too" I smiled back.


We finished eating, then we talked a little.


"So Dally, is this your girlfriend?" Kaitlyn smiled.


"Not yet" He smirked and winked at me.


I felt my face burn up and I looked down at the floor smiling. Was he being serious? I felt a little excited but nervous at the same time. Dating the toughest boy of the gang seemed like a complicated thing to do, but I was ready.


Kaitlyn was a really fun girl, we hung out a little while after leaving the Dingo. Pony gave Kaitlyn a kiss then we left to walk home.


"Hey Pony she's such a sweet girl! How long have you been together?" I ask as we walk down the street.


"Almost a year" He smiles. They were definitely the cutest couple I've ever seen, well now that Soda and Sandy are done. I still felt so bad for him. Soda's the sweetest guy I ever met, he really didn't deserve that. If me and Dally ever got together, I really hope that never happens to us.


"Hey greasers" A soc says yelling from his car, they must have been following us. We all looked back and kept walking, ignoring them. The car stopped and two of the socs jumped out. I looked up and Dally and he rolled his eyes. I giggled at how he didn't even care that they were probably going to try something on him.


"What are you laughing at greaser" One says. Dally turns around and so does Pony.


"We aren't looking for trouble, stay on your own side of town" Pony says. The socs laugh and one pulls out a blade. Dally sighs and puts me behind his back, with Pony.


"Pony man, take her home" Dally says.


Pony pulls my arm and quickly pulls me down the street. I keep looking back at Dally to make sure he's okay. I'm sure he'll be okay, he's tough. We get to the house and everyone was sitting around.


"Where's Dal?" Johnny asks.


"He's back taking on some socs, he told me to take her here" Pony replies.


"Is he going to be okay?" I ask a little worried. I know Dally was tough, but something about this didn't seem normal, even though I wasn't sure what normal was around here.


"I'm going to check on him, just to make sure he's okay, where's he too?" Darry says putting a shirt on.


"By the lot" Pony says.


"I'll come too" Steve says and Soda agrees with him. Two-bit gets up too.


"Johnny, Pony stay here with Hannah, we will be back soon" Darry says and they walk out the door.


"Dal will be okay Hannah, he never looses a fight" Johnny says placing his hand on my shoulder. Pony nodded at me but I still wasn't a hundred percent sure, something wasn't right. We sat around for about a half an hour and the phone rang. Pony jumped up and answered it right away.


"Hello" He says. "We'll be right there" He hangs up the phone and gives us a worried look. Shit.


"Dally's in the hospital" He says. Johnny grabs his jacket and Pony zips up his sweater. Three of us run out the door and hurry to a bus stop.


"I knew something wasn't right" I said as we sit on the bus.


"Are you and Dally together or something?" Pony asks.


"No, but he kissed me last night" I reply, I couldn't help but smile.


"Do you like him?" Johnny asks.


I nodded and blushed. He and Pony smiled.


"That's why your so worried about him"  Pony says.


We reach the hospital and we run inside.


"We need to see Dallas winston" Pony says to a nurse.


"This room right here" She says and smiles.


Pony and Johnny run into the room and I slowly walk in. All the gang were sitting around a hospital bed where Dally was laying. He looked okay, which relieved me.


"Come on in" Darry says.


I keep slowly walking in, not taking my eyes off Dally. Ponyboy smiled at me and I smiled back.


"What happened?" I ask.


"Soc pulled a blade, stabbed him in a few places, but he'll be okay, don't worry" Darry says.


I nodded and Dally told me to come over. I sat on the edge of the bed and looked him in the eye. He lifted his arm up to the side of my face and pulled it down close to his.


"Your a cute blondie" He whispers then places his lips on mine. Again our lips were moving in perfect sync. This was it, this is who I'm happy with.
