Get on the Road Again

Y/n POV
I let Soda kiss me.

I don't know what it was within me but as soon as he did it, I knew this was something that I'd wanted for a long time.

I released from our kiss, "what is happening?" I asked him, overwhelmed by what had transpired throughout my day.
"I'm sorry y/n, but I still like you" he confessed to me.
"I haven't stopped since we met!" "What about Sandy?" I asked him, "I used her to try to get over you! And that clearly didn't work" he mumbled the last part.
"Oh Soda.." I said and kissed him again.

I find my ex boyfriend cheating on me today, and I'm already kissing a different guy!
Maybe I am just as bad as Dally.

No!
I can't be.

"This feels wrong" I told Soda stopping.
"I just got single today and I'm already kissing another guy".
He sighed "y/n I'm sorry this is my fault, I shouldn't have rushed you into this-" "Soda, I chose to kiss you too, it's not your fault".
We were silent for a minute.
"Can we just not mention this to anyone? So I can have some time to get over Dallas?" "Yeah sure, ok".

I turned around with my back facing Soda, and fell asleep.

Soda POV
Dallas has been a bitch all day, he thinks cheating on y/n is a big joke! We are going to Buck's right now to get y/n's things so she can move out of Dally's and into Steve's house.

We got there and he was throwing another party.
Y/n groaned and told us "you guys can wait here, I'll get my stuff" but I insisted on coming with her.

I didn't want anything to happen to her.

She shrugged in approval and we walked inside. The entire place was crowded to the doors, there was barely any room to squeeze inside. Once we were finally somehow able to get in, we were walking through the building to the stairs, when I someone yell "Hey!".
I looked behind me and this big guy was holding onto y/n.

I felt my face burn with anger.
No one touches her.

"Hey let her go!" I yelled at him, and surprisingly, he did. Y/n ran into my arms, but the guy was still trying to get her to go with him.
"She's mine back off" I lied to him, trying to defend her.
"Sure pal now hand her over" he continued, so I did the only thing I could think of.

I kissed her.

That moment was like a dream come true.
I hadn't stopped thinking about connecting with her lips for months, and now it's finally happened. I mean, the circumstances weren't what I had imagined, but it'd have to do.

The guy backed off and I quickly grabbed y/n's hand, pulling her upstairs.
"Uh thanks Soda" she said awkwardly, "uh huh let's get your stuff" I said fast, trying not to allow her to know how much adrenaline I had from that moment, and I opened Dally's door.

Dally was of course with some other girl, but y/n ignored that and grabbed her stuff.
It hasn't even been a day and he's already moved on from y/n?
I mean I shouldn't be surprised, the relationship ended from the guy being unfaithful.

"What are you doing?" He yelled as us, "moving out" y/n yelled, ignoring what he was doing with the girl and grabbing her things while I was frozen in place. She walked out of the door once she had everything, and I slammed it shut.
"I don't know what's more traumatizing, a stranger grabbing me or seeing Dal with another girl today, twice" she told me, which made me sigh. She'd been treated so badly in her relationship, I couldn't help but feel extremely sorry for what she went through.

We walked back outside and Steve immediately asked "anything happen?".
Y/n and I looked at each other, and I answered "um no not really".
That was close. He'd feel suspicious about the entire thing anyway.

We walked to Steve's and set up spots to sleep, which turned out to be useless. Y/n went upstairs to her new room while Steve and I stayed downstairs. When she came back, she told us that she was tired and was going to go to sleep.
"Ok I may as well too, now that the fun's going to sleep" Steve told her, which only offended me a little and made y/n laugh.
Her laugh was so adorable.

"You can sleep in my bed if you want" y/n offered me, and I of course agreed.
We got into the bed and just laid there, silently.

Great.

Finally y/n spoke, "hey Soda?" "yeah?" "what was that thing about at Buck's?".

Shit, she better not be thinking what I'm thinking of.
"What one?" I asked her.
She paused, "when you, um, kissed me?".

Damn it. It was the same thing.

"Oh um that guy he wasn't gonna leave you alone..." I said trying to come up with a believable excuse, but it was no use.

She obviously knew I was lying.

I didn't know what else to do or say, so I again did the only thing I could think of.

I kissed her.
For the second time today.

And she kissed me back.

My heart felt like it was exploding.

She kissed me back!

She pulled away and asked "what is happening?".
I confessed everything to her.
And she kissed me again.

"This feels wrong" y/n told me, stopping our kiss for the second time, "I just got single today and I'm already kissing another guy".
I sighed "y/n I'm sorry this is my fault, I shouldn't have rushed you into this" "Soda, I chose to kiss you too, it's not your fault".

She chose to kiss me.
I felt my stomach do cartwheels.

"Can we just not mention this to anyone? So I can have some time to get over Dallas?".

I'd wait a million years for her to get over Dallas.

As long as it meant that I still had a chance.
