~Sodapop's point of view~

I got home and walked inside. Know one was home, I went up to my room and I stopped in fear. Dally was in my room waiting for me, "Well hello Sodapop", "What the hell are you doing in my room?", "Waiting for you", "Look I know your mad-." He interrupted me, "I'm not mad..I'm furious. When Scarlet came here I started to be happy again, she was like the sunshine. I liked her so much..it didn't matter that I didn't know her, but I lost her to you. She's obsessed with you...I should have known she would use me for you...every girl likes you." I had no idea what to say..I've never seen Dally like this before, "Dally I'm sorry about everything...I never intended for any of this to happen", "I know you didn't..but you stole her from me", "No I didn't. She chose to be with me", "It doesn't matter..I talked to her first", "It's not my fault she liked both of us", "You never should have even spoken to her..you knew I wanted her." He was right..I knew Dally wanted her, but I wanted her too, "Look I'm sorry about all of this, I'm sorry your heartbroken..but there is nothing I can do about it", "Yes there is. You can break up with her", "That's not gonna happen", "How come you deserve to get her?", "Because she likes me and not you...", "She would have liked me if you were out of the picture", "Get over it Dally...there's nothing you can do", "Don't tell me what to do." Dally had a cold stare on his face, if I'm being honest...I was scared, "Look Dally why don't you go get a drink or something", "I don't want a drink, I want Scarlet", "No you don't. In one month she will be gone..she probably won't ever come back here..she will forget about me and you", "No she won't", "Yes she will." Dally just glared at me, "Listen to me Soda. I don't like you, I hate you, you stole what I wanted..how would your parents feel if they saw there boy was stealing things?", "Don't bring my parents into this", "Oh right...they aren't here, they don't want to be here..could care less about you", "SHUT UP DALLY", "Your parents never loved you..that's probably why they left for that vacation...they never wanted to come back-." I had enough, I let my anger get the best of me. I attacked him, I was beating the shit out of him, he was trying to fight back but this time...he was loosing. He had blood dripping from his face and I had bruised and bloody knuckles, suddenly the gang came running upstairs. They all ran in and stopped dead in their tracks, Darry looked at me in horror, "SODAPOP WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!?." He pulled me off of Dally and wouldn't let me go, the rest of the gang went over and tended to Dally. Darry looked at me in shock, "What the hell were you thinking? Why did you do that?", "It was his fault." I looked at my hands and saw Dally's blood, I suddenly had a wave of guilt rush over me, "I...I didn't mean to, he said something about mom and dad and it pissed me off..I let my anger get the best of me", "Sodapop this isn't like you", "I know...we got into a fight about Scarlet and it resulted into this." I might be a sixteen year old boy but I felt like crying, I felt awful. I beat the shit out of one of my closest friends....he probably hates me. A few seconds later my eyes were starting to tear up, Darry hugged me, "It's gonna be okay Soda."

~Scarlet's point of view~

I was real upset about Soda leaving the drive in without giving me a kiss, I wanted to apologize to him about getting Dally mad at him. I decided to go to his house, I knocked on the door and Ponyboy opened it, "Uh hey Ponyboy...is Soda home?", "Uh yeah...", "Okay great...can I talk to him?", "Uhhh...I don't know..something happened between him and Dally", "Oh shit." I pushed past Ponyboy into the house, Dally was sitting on the couch with bruises and blood all over his face. I looked at him in fear, I came closer to him, "Dally! What happened?", "Your fucking psycho boyfriend", "H-he did this to you?", "Yeah he did." I wanted to cry...my sweet perfect boyfriend...beat the shit out of someone, Sodapop wouldn't hurt a fly. I looked at Ponyboy with tears in my eyes, "Where is he?", "In his room." I went up the stairs and opened the door to his room, he was lying in his bed...crying. I walked over to him and sat down next to him, "Sodapop...what happened?", "I...I-I hurt Dally", "Why baby?", "We we're fighting about you and than he said something about my parents and it made me so upset...and I beat him up." He was starting to cry more, I moved next to him and wrapped my arms around him, "Baby it's okay...Dally's gonna be fine", "I can't believe I did that...I feel so fucking guilty", "It's okay...you didn't mean it", "I never should have taken you from him...I knew he liked you but I just...I just couldn't stay away from you", "Soda don't blame yourself for what happened between Dally and I...it was my fault that I broke his heart..not yours." His watery eyes met mine, "Scarlet..I'm a monster", "No your not..your not a monster..it was an accident", "I hate myself", "Don't say that..he will forgive you." I laid down and Sodapop wrapped his arms around me and I ran my hands through his hair, "You know..the only reason I came to your house was because...I was sad you didn't kiss me before you left the drive in", "Awe baby I'm sorry..I just had a lot on my mind." He leaned closer to me and our lips immediately touched...it was just perfect.
