Chapter 2

A/N that's Lauren. Also portrayed by -Infiniteafi follow her and comment/message me if you want a character too!

When I woke up, my best friend Lauren was sitting by my bed. "Hey Laur," I said groggily sitting up. I got a gut wrenching feeling in my stomach where I'd been stabbed and I flopped back down.

"Need help?" She asked. I nodded and she helped me up.

"Where's dal?" I asked curiously.

"Oh, um. I don't know." She said blushing. She has liked Dally for a long time. I looked at Lauren with a smirk. Her ice blue eyes lit up every time I talked about Dallas. She was actually really pretty. She has medium length brown curly hair, (as I said) ice blue eyes, and sort of pale skin. She was also kind of quiet unless you knew her well like me. I grabbed an ace bandage on my bed side table and wrapped it around my ribs and threw a shirt on over my bra.

Images of what happened rushed through my mind. "TWO-BIT!" I hollered remembering his limp body in the fountain. "WHERE IS HE!?"

"Um," Lauren said especially slowly. I rolled my eyes and barged out of my room. There it was, the same limp body lying on the couch, but now shirtless, stitched up, and breathing ever so slowly.

I kneeled down next to him as Steve walked in. "He's not as bad as he looks, sleepy head." He said gentle and playfully. "He's okay."

I turned around swiftly and angrily. "I had a blade. I HAVE a blade. I swear when I get to those socs imma kill 'em!" I pulled my fist back and punched straight through the wall, just next to the hole I created last week. You might say I have anger issues but I just say I have a habit of punching walls. Steve grabbed me by the shoulders and gently lowered me to the ground.

"It's alright JJ," he said calmly. "Two's okay, and everything is gonna go back to normal. It's just them damn socs. They'll never learn." I took a deep breath and nodded, then made my way back over to Two-bit. Steve walked back into the kitchen and patted my head on the way. I rested my head on the arm of the couch and just watched Two-bit sleep.

"Thank god you're okay." I mumbled just as Dally walked in.

"Jocelyn Jade!" Dally yelled lifting me up swinging me around.

Two-bit chuckled slightly. "Ughh, not so loud." He fake whined. Dally put me down and I practically sprinted the 10 feet over.

"Two-bit I'm so sorry!" I said already bawling. "It's all my fault! I should have-"

"Hey it's alright kiddo!" He replied, cracking his famous smile. I'm only a year younger than him but he still calls me kiddo, which I love. "I wanna get up!" He screamed before I had time to respond. I laughed and helped him sit up.

"How do you feel?" I said wiping the tears off my face and sniffling. I rarely cry actually, and I know that this is probably hard to believe but it's true. I sat on the couch next to Two.

"Fine, I've been gotten up a few times as of yesterday." He told me.

"Um, yesterday?" I questioned. How long was I out?

"Yeah, you were dead asleep for 3 days. We had one of those traveling doctors come to the house. He said it was blood loss. Believe it or not, you actually lost more than me!" Two-bit laughed slightly. I sighed and placed my head on his shoulder. The gang all scrambled in one by one cheering things like,

"Oh, sleeping beauty is up!"
And
"Ah! The evil queen has awoken!"

I just laughed along with their playful insults.

TWO-BIT's POV
JJ sat next to me laughing at every joke and/or insults. I was so glad she was okay, I was getting really worried. Yesterday she'd looked as pale as a ghost when I was sitting with her. After a minute or two I realized I was staring at her. I think she'd noticed too because her face was glowing a bright red and she was glancing over out of the corner of her eye. I quickly looked away trying to find something else to look at. Thank the lord none of the boys noticed.

"Chocolate cake!" Darry yelled from the kitchen. Everyone ran screaming into the kitchen, including myself.

"Bring me some!" JJ called out.

"I got it." I said to the boys and grabbed her a beer as well. I got a weird look from Steve but I just shrugged it off. I brought her the cake and beer and she ate like she had been starved for the past few weeks which made sense since she'd eaten nothing for the past 3 days.

"What?" She asked. I realized I was staring at her again.

"Oh um, nothing." I said thinking and then cracked a smile once I figured out how to save myself. "Just hoping you know you're supposed to get the cake in your mouth instead of all over your face!" That's when I started laughing. Her face burned a pinkish red color and she wiped her hand across her face, and then over mine smearing chocolate icing all over me.

"Oh you're gonna pay for that Winston!" I yelled.

"Oh, am I?" She said smiling her perfect little smile.

"Uh-huh!!" I said and stood up throwing her over my shoulder.

"Hey, watch it for the stitches!" Darry yelled at us.

"Whose?" JJ yelled laughing. I threw her down on the grass as gently as possible and started to tickle her. She flailed around laughing and tried to squirm away but it was no use.

"Give up while you still can!" I yelled.

"Alright! M-mercyyyy!" She shouted back as I finally let up.

We headed inside and I looked at the clock, "Aw shit, I'm late for my date." I said and headed out the door. But for the first time ever...I wished I was going on that date with the brunette I'd just walked away from.
