Dally's Angel

3

"Can I go now?" We stood there for seconds, minutes even, staring at each other. Before I could even take a step back, he snatched my wrist and whirled me to him. 

"Don't you walk away from me again, doll." he said lowly, as if he was very jealous. I rolled my eyes. It didn't make up for all the pain he had caused me. 

"I do what I want, Dallas. I can do fine without you." I spat out, and wrenched myself of his grasp. I heaved a breath, trying to calm down. His brown eyes turned dangerous and a fierce look crossed his face. 

"What did you say?" he hissed, his eyes daring me to repeat my unwise words. It was always a very poor idea to anger him. Everything stilled around me, and I tried to gather the courage to speak, but I couldn't. 

"I just..." I stammered, and an unforgiving smirk appeared on his lips. 

"You say you can live just fine without me. But who begged her brother for money to bail me out? Who cried all night and tried to run after the police car? Who.." he was taunting me, and he was enjoying it. My heart broke in two all over again. He was holding everything I did for him against me. 

"Darry, please, we gotta bail him out!"  I cried to Darry as we stood behind the glass window where Dally stood, not even looking sheepish. He sighed. 

"It's been the second time this month!" he sighed. I picked up the phone hurriedly. 

"Dally, please, tell him you won't get in trouble again." I thrusted the phone to Darry and he picked up. I could hear Dally promising to try not do anything illegal for the next few weeks. I stared at him quietly. We haven't been talking much recently. He didn't change much. He was still the same old Dally and I was glad. 

"Okay I'll bail ya out but it's the last time." Darry went  to pay the bail and the guard let Dally out. Without thinking, I leapt into his arms. I thought he'd hug me back or at least say something, but he pushed me away coldly. 

"I ain't got time for this." he muttered, and walked out of there, leaving me dumbfounded. 

"I won't do it again. Ever. From this day on, we're strangers." I lifted my chin and looked into his eyes. I was tired...so tired of chasing after him. He clearly didn't want me. Even if he did, he wouldn't do a thing to prove that. And I had enough. 

I waited for him to say something, to tell me that he overreacted tonight and that he missed me, but that would never happen. Even at the last moment, I wanted to hear those words from his mouth. I never learned the facts. The fact that he was Dallas Winston and he would never love or care about anyone. 

"Good." It was another sharp knife straight at my broken heart. I nodded, and backed away. I still could still feel his gaze though. But this time, I didn't turn back for him.

I stood a few houses away from Buck's, alone. 

"Hey!" A voice behind me made me turn. A  blue mustang stopped before me. My head spun from too much booze and my vision blurred from the unshed tears. I saw a boy in a nice button-up shirt and khaki pants got out and walked up behind me. From his fancy clothes and arrogant demeanor and nice car , I knew he was a soc. 

"It's greaser territory, you know." I usually didn't fuss about the feud my brothers and their friends were engaged in, but tonight I was in no mood to be nice. 

"Fiery, aren't we? I like it." He took a swig out of his can. I glared at him. 

"Who are you anyways?" I asked. 

"That's not for you to worry about." he smiled, an evil look appeared into his blue eyes. Even though I've seen the cruelty and the unfeelingness in Dally's eyes, I've never seen something quite as terrible. There was this trapped hunger in his smile, and I felt as if I were his prey. 

He tossed his beer can aside, liquid spilling onto the grass. He approached me, making me have nowhere to go. My legs shook as I tried to stand my ground. The little bit of pride that was left in me evaporated into the thin air when he stuck his face close to mine. 

"There's something about you, and I like it. And I get what I want. And I want you. And I will have you, no matter what." he whispered in my ear. My whole body trembled out of fear, and tear started to fall down my cheeks. 

"No,  you won't." I tried to rebuke him but he just grinned. 

"We'll see." he started to walk towards his car. When I finally tried to take a breath, he turned back around. 

"I'm Bob Sheldon, by the way." With that, he drove off. I sank to the floor, shaken. He was scarier than anyone I've met before. He looked like he wanted to do bad, to hurt people and see them suffer. All I sensed was evilness from him. 

I've never been bothered like this before. Because all the other times Dally would be there. And no one dared to approach me when he is two feet from me. He glared at every man who looked a second too long. But I have to get used to it. 

Because he'll never be with me again.
