~Scarlet's point of view~

After we were done eating our ice cream we both realized it was getting late, so we started heading towards my aunt's house. We got to my aunts house and I didn't feel like getting out of his truck, "I had so much fun with you Soda", "Me too", "I like hanging out with you, your fun", "Your fun too!" We both looked into each other's eyes, we moved closer to each other as if there was a magnetic pull between us. As soon as we were about an inch apart from each other he kissed me, it wasn't like a scrawny little kid kiss...it was like a true love kiss. He put his hand around my cheek and I ran my hands through his hair, after like two minutes we broke apart. "Wow. Damn Sodapop Curtis your one hell of a good kisser", "Yeah...but I'm not as good as you." I could feel my face start to heat up, " I better get inside before my parents start worrying, I had a great time", "Me too...goodnight Scarlet Holthouse."

~Sodapop's point of view~

Damn..that Scarlet Holthouse is one gem, she's  perfect. She has this beautiful long dirty blonde hair, bright extravagant green emerald eyes, and the softest lips. She's the sweetest thing, I just wish that my buddy Dally wasn't after her, they wouldn't even go good together. But the biggest problem is that she hangs out with him too, and she goes out on dates with him, and she kisses him! Eventually she's gonna be hanging with just me...no Dallas Winston. After I dropped Scarlet off I headed home, I got inside and all my friends were hanging out. My bestfriend Steve came up to me, "Soda!!! How was your date?", "Amazing", "Oooo your in love", "oh shut up Steve I am not." I went and sat down with all my friends, Dally glared at me from the other side of the room. What is his problem? Just because he talked to her first doesn't mean shit, I'm the one who took her out first...not him. I eventually decided to say something, "What your problem Dally?", "You", "Why?", "Because your trying to steal the girl I'm after." Did he really just accuse me of stealing? I'm pretty sure I was the one who took her out first, "What the hell are you talking about? I took her out first", "So? I kissed her first", "Okay and what's your point? I've taken her out twice...you have only been out once." He just stared at me with his hard brown eyes, "Listen here, Scarlet Holthouse is mine", "Actually I think your wrong...she's mine." Suddenly we were interrupted by my younger brother Ponyboy, "Actually she's not either of yours, in case you haven't noticed she doesn't live here...she's leaving in August." He was right...I don't know what Dally and I were fighting about, there was no point in fighting. She's only going to be here for the rest of June, the full month of July, and than half of August. But it still meant she was gonna be here...which meant she was gonna be my girl, weather Dallas Winston liked it or not.

~Dally's point of view~

I can't believe Sodapop, he is literally trying to take the girl I like. I literally talked to her first...who the hell does he think he is? I'm not gonna let him get away with taking her, if he thinks she's gonna be his than he has another thing coming his way. Scarlet Holthouse is mine.

~Scarlet's point of view~

Sodapop had just dropped me off, he is something special. He is just perfect, I loved the way his hair was styled, I loved the way his eyes shimmered in the dark sky with the gleam of the bright stars. But I'm sorta in a dilemma...I like Dally too. He is so brave and strong, he has the most gorgeous brown eyes, his hair is free and soft. I liked both of these boys and I had no idea what I was going to do.

I quietly went upstairs, I put on some pajamas and took my makeup off. Than I brushed my hair and put it into a low ponytail, a few minutes later Cherry came into the room. "Cherry! It feels like I haven't seen you in days", "I know...I'm sorry, I've been hanging out with Bob", "Oh it's okay don't worry about it. I wanted to ask you something-." I was interrupted when she looked at me with her pleading green eyes, "I'm sorry Scarlet...I can't talk right now, Bob's waiting for me downstairs. I'm spending the night at his house...I just came to grab some clothes", "Oh...have fun", "Thanks Scarlet! See you later." She walked away leaving me by myself, I was beyond frustrated. Cherry was one of the closet people to me and it seemed like every time I needed her she was never here, all I needed was for someone to give me advice on what to do...what am I supposed to do when I like two boys. Eventually I fell asleep...I was out cold.

The next day, I woke up and went downstairs. I did my usual routine, I made breakfast and than got ready. Today I decided to wear a pair of high waisted denim shorts with a sweatshirt, I went downstairs again and my dad was waiting near the door. "Where you off to today?", "Uhmmm...I'm not really sure yet", "Hmmmm I see. Scarlet we need to talk about you going out every night", "What's the problem with me making friends?", "These boy's want to be more than friends Scarlet...besides there are plenty of better options back in California. Maybe when we get back you should go after Nick Goode", "Dad...we went over this Nick and I dated when we were twelve...it was nothing serious." He looked at me with his puzzling face expression, "listen honey I'm just trying to do what's best for you", "You have no idea what's best for me...no idea at all."
