Timeless (An Outsiders Fanfiction)

Chapter 3

-Elle's POV-

I woke up on the couch to the smell of eggs and bacon cooking and the sound of Two Bit snoring. I looked around to see Darry cooking in the kitchen and Johnny and Two Bit still sprawled across the floor sound asleep.

I stretched out my arms and legs then Darry took notice that I was awake. "Sleep well?" he chuckled.

"Sure did!" I exclaimed truthfully. I hadn't slept much since my trip here.

"I could tell! You were snoring louder than Two Bit over here!" I laughed along and thanked him for letting me crash here for the night.

I nudged Two and Johnny in the face with my foot and laughed to myself. "Aw seriously Elle?" Two Bit sat up and rubbed his eyes.

"You know you love me!" Then Johnny woke up, he wasn't annoyed that my foot was on his face. He simply stretched out and said 'good morning.'

Darry told us that Pony and Soda were still asleep so the rest of us nodded and mumbled 'okay.' Mickey was on and we watched quietly not wanting to wake the sleepyheads.

Johnny broke the silence, I was shocked he talked on his own will! "So Elle, did you like that kiss last night?"
He nudged me, eyes still glued to the TV.

I shrugged and nudged him back. Honestly, I didn't know what I felt about the kiss. I was expecting fireworks but that just didn't happen.

Speaking of Soda, he finally stumbled into the living room with a bedhead. Pony followed close behind. They plumped on the couch beside me on either side.

Then there was quite a while of peaceful silence 'til Darry broke it saying breakfast was ready.

I grunted in relief, I was starving! Darry made the best eggs, bacon, toast, and chocolate cake I've ever eaten in my life. I mean I knew they liked chocolate cake and all but for breakfast?

My friends are weird. Friends, I like it. Just then, Steve and Dallas bursted through the door sitting down at the table and started stacking their plates with food.

There was another silence but this one felt so awkward. That is until Pony blurted out, "Elle kissed Sodapop last night!"

I felt my entire face get really red and hot. I caught a glimpse of Soda and I think he was blushing more than I was! Dally dropped his utensils and choked on his food for a little. He looked real mad. Darry's jaw dropped.

Of course Steve, Johnny, Pony, and Two Bit were all laughing at everyone's reactions.

When I felt my face cool down and return to it's normal tanned pint I cleared my throat and said ever so calmly, "Listen here, Horseguy, It was truth or dare and it didn't even mean anything."

Soda nodded in agreement. We all went back to eating but I noticed Dallas was still looking a bit upset. He was stabbing his food pretty viciously. . .

Is Dallas Winston jealous? That's when Steve pointed it out. "Hey Dal, why so upset? Is 'Badass Winston' jealous that Elle kissed Soda instead of you?" Steve made kissy faces at Dallas.

After Steve pointed it out we were all smirking waiting for an answer. First his face flushed with embarrassment but was soon replaced with his famous Dallas Winston smirk.

I knew exactly what he was thinking. "In your dreams Winston!" I said breaking eye contact.

"Then I must be dreaming." He then planted a kiss on my cheek.

Although it wasn't on the lips I oddly felt a spark. Whereas with Soda and I kissing on the lips, nothing was felt.

Was I, the baddest bad girl, falling for Dallas Winston, the baddest bad boy? Nah, we can't, we're too alike. But I can sure tell we will be the best of buds.

"Hellooo? Earth to Elle?" Two Bit waved his hand in front of my face snapping me out of my daze.

"So what are we doing today since you guys don't have work or school?" I asked changing the subject.

"Nothing legal, man," said by, the one and only, Dallas Winston.
