Darry's POV
This day is starting out horrible. First, I woke up late. I was rushing around and I didn't even eat breakfast. I forgot half of my stuff so I had to drop Soda and Steve off then go back home and get my stuff. Then, I remembered I forgot about Ponyboy so I had to go back and wake his lazy butt up. He took forever to get ready and he whined around about breakfast so I stopped and let him get something from the DX. Snickers, the breakfast of champions. Now, I'm pulling into work..a hour and a half late. Great.
"Sorry boss. My brothers were running late." When in doubt, blame the younger brothers. That's what they're here for right?
"I'm not your boss anymore Darry." Oh shit. I'm being fired.
"Look I'm sorry I'm late. It never happens and it won't happen again." I begged.
"No not that. I'm retiring. Your new boss is in the office. Go introduce yourself. Bye Darry. You are a good worker."
"Oh. Bye Mr. Barry. Thanks. Enjoy your retirement." Retirement, something I'll never get to have.
"Oh I will." He drove off. Time to go face the new boss. What a great first impression. This day can't get any worse.

I knocked on the office door.
"Come in." I young, girly voice said. I was shocked. Either my boss has a girly voice, he has his wife or daughter with him, or my boss is a girl. I walked in and sure enough...my boss is a girl. Great. Now we're gonna have pink work trucks and have glitter on our uniforms. Kill me now. She's really pretty though. Her eyes sparkle.
"Hi. My names Vanessa. I'm guessing you're Darry. You're former boss has told me a lot about you." She smiled.
"Yes ma'am, I'm Darry. It's nice to meet you. I'm sorry I'm late me brothers..." She cut me off.
"Don't worry about it. Let's start off on the right foot."
"Thank you."
"Just go on with your job now and we'll chat later." She said. I nodded and walked out the door.

Since then I've had lunch with her a few times and I can't get her off my mind. She's beautiful,smart, caring, she has a sense of humor, and a great personality. I have the day off today so I won't get to see her. I heard fingers snapping. I guess I've been day dreaming because I suddenly noticed Soda's fingers snapping right in front of my face.
"Earth to Darry." He said.
"What Soda?"
"I want, well we all want to know who Vanessa is." My eyes got real big, real fast. How do they know about her?! Maybe they don't and this is just a joke.
"Who?" I asked. They all laughed. "What's so funny?"
"Darry we heard you last night. It sounded something like this. Oh Vanessa." Soda moaned the end. I turned beat red. I can't believe they heard me!
"Who is she?" Ponyboy asked.
"If you must know she's my boss and that's it." I grabbed the newspaper and held it over my face. I didn't want them to know my cheeks were red.
"Awe! Darry's got a crush on the boss. Or Darry just wants a raise!" Two-bit laughed. Did I forget to mention the whole gang is here?
"If you guys want beer, food, and a place to watch Mickey Mouse I suggest you shut up." I stated.
"Fine fine." Soda said. It was quiet for a few minutes but I knew that wouldn't last long and I was right. The boys all looked at each other and started whispering. Then they all grinned. What have the came up with now?"
"Hey Darry?" Soda said innocently.
"What?" I said flatly.
"You know Valentines Day is this Saturday and you don't have a Valentine and by the looks of it neither does Vanessa and we were just thinking that maybe you should.."
"Stop right there Sodapop Patrick Curtis." That's right, I brought all the full name. I mean business.
"But Darry.." He whined.
"No."
"Just listen."
"No."
"Please."
"No."
"But.."
"Do you want supper tonight?"
"Fine." He huffed in defeat. That's what I thought. Boys are controlled by two organs. There stomach and their man hood. I know from experience. My dad always said never start a fight before dinner. If you do one of two things will happen 1. She won't cook or 2. She'll poison it.
