I'm so nervous about my date with Sodapop. I've never been so worried about a date before. I haven't been on a date in almost 5 months. I have no idea what to wear. I might wear a dress since I'm going to Buck's afterwards.
I could always ask Jessica for help.
An that's what I decided to do.

"Jess can you help me pick out my outfit?"

"Yeah sure. Will you wear a dress?"

"I don't have any. Except for my mom's and I'm saving those for really really special occasions."

"I see. I have one you can borrow.
Do you think Buck will let you use his car?"

"I don't think he will. I know he will."
So we walked down the stairs and saw Buck sitting at the bar.

"Hey Bucky. How much do you love me?"

"What do you want?

"I need to go to her house to get a dress for the date."

"Alright be careful, bring it back in one piece." He said handing me the keys.

"I will, don't worry." I headed out the door with Jessica behind me. We got into Buck's car and headed toward Tim's house. I already knew where to go because I had been there before.

"Do you know where the house is?"

Yes. I've been there before."

"Okay, you seem nice."

"Well I'm never nice."

"You are to me."

"Maybe your lucky then."

"Your nice to Soda."

"He's my boyfriend."

"I know. I guess your only nice to certain people."

"Wow your smart Shepard, I can see why though you are related to Tim.
I bet that's a handful."

"Oh you have no idea. I can deal with Tim that's nothing. It's just Angela I can't stand."

"I've only met her once so I can't say anything." I said as I pulled into the driveway of the Shepard residence.
Then I turned the ignition off.

"Take your shoes off at the door when you walk in. Tim's real picky about that."

"Yeah I figured that he hasn't changed." I said getting out of the car. Then we walk inside and Tim was sitting on the couch watching T.V.

"What's up? Tired of her already."

"Nope, she's actually pretty cool."

"Yeah and so is she. We're going to be like best friends forever." Tim raised an eye brow.

"I don't know maybe. You seem cool and all but don't push it."

"Yep your just like old Dally."

"Who Tim?"

"A buddy of mine Dallas Winston, he's in the cooler right now though.
He hangs around the Curtis boys more than me."

"Oh ok. I was just wondering. I used to know a Dallas Winston."

"How so?"

"I dated him back when I lived in New York, but things didn't end very well
I don't want to talk about it."

"Alright." Then Jessica and I headed to her room to find me something to wear.

"Just have a seat and I'll find something." I took a seat on her bed while she rambled through her closet.
I was hoping she wouldn't pick out something pink because I hate pink with an absolute passion. I think that maybe me and Jess could become best friends. I don't know yet though, I only met her today. She's pretty cool though. She's really nice, and she isn't like most greaser girls. She's actually a decent girl, most greaser girls are whores and wear way too much make up. I noticed that Jess doesn't wear too much,
I honestly think we could be best friends one day.
