Dallas drove them to a house that clearly was run down and abandoned with a lake beside it. Soda had once told Nina of the place, he said it was a spot they'd swim at in the summer time. Nina was beginning to get cold as Dallas hid his car with a dark green tarp. It was like he had done it a hundred times before, with how naturally he did it.

He then leads Nina inside and she can clearly see blankets on a makeshift bed, a box full of canned provisions, and lots of old cigarette butts thrown around. This was a place he hid when being chased by cops, he knew they'd look at bucks and the Curtis house. Nina was just glad he hadn't asked for them to hide at her house, but it also made her curious why he hadn't asked.

"This'll work for a few days." Dally says walking in and lighting a cigarette before lighting some candles for light. Nina's face goes to a shocked one hearing the few days part. She was supposed to hangout with him for days? She was sure to piss him off and possibly get thrown out or left behind.

"Awe what's the matter princess too dirty for ya?" He asks like he's teasing her but it's clear he is getting defensive thinking she thought less of him in a way. "No. Just didn't realize we'd have to hide out for so long." Nina states before walking to the mattress that was thrown in the middle of the room.

She lays on it with a sigh of relief at her aching muscles, she can feel him staring her but she refuses to meet his gaze.

The entire car ride had been deathly silent and it made Nina's liquid courage dwindle. She had kiss the jerk that is Dallas Winston. She'd say it was a heat in the moment thing if he told the other guys but she still felt embarrassed. She had her first kiss with the boy, and he wasn't one to keep his remarks to himself.

Nina tries to cover her face that heats up but it still burns strong as he continues staring. A small smirk growing on his face that she couldn't see due to her arms one her face but she could imagine it making her scowl.

"So-...... us alone for days huh babe?" He asks it with suggestion making Nina remove her arms and glare at his cocky smirk. "Nothing like that is going to happen." She huffs as his smirk grows more. "I don't know man you sure seemed like you wanted somthin earlier." He says sitting next to her on the bed as she rolls her eyes and looks away from him blushing again.

"It was..... a heat in the moment type of thing from the adrenaline." She states but it doesn't come out as confident as she had hoped making him snort and lean back on his hands looking at her. He bites his lip and he narrows his eyes looking at her as if he's trying to see something that wasn't there.

"Was that your first kiss man?" He asks making Nina tense and not look at him but she doesn't exactly deny it either making him do his chuckle. "Shut up." Nina spat bitterly as he continued to chuckle and gave her a once over sticking his tongue in his cheek.
