We Still Made It Together// Dallas Winston

Chapter 16

Dallas' P.O.V

I was pissed with Bambi and stormed out of soc territory, planning to start some trouble. She's so full of herself. She better not come running to me when that stupid soc breaks her heart.

I headed towards a smaller convenience store, looking around. I tore up a magazine and threw it at the dude. He was yelling at me about having to pay for it.

I quickly grabbed a pack of kools before running out of the store, booking it down the street. I laughed to myself as I heard the cops and I ran towards the park, rolling to the ground as a cop tackled me.

"How ya doin'?" I asked, laughing as he put cuffs on me.

"Jesus Dallas. Are you ever gonna stop getting in trouble?" He groaned and I just shook my head as I was thrown into the back of a cop car.

Bambi's P.O.V

I squinted my eyes as I was woken up by a knock at the door, groaning as I rolled out of bed. I opened the door quietly as I saw Liam was still sleeping.

"Good morning." I softly smiled as I saw it was his mom.

"Hi hunny. Someone called, their name is Darrel Curtis and said it was your dad." She softly smiled back.

"Oh, ok. What did he want?" I asked, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.

"He just said you need to be home soon, it's an emergency." She said, I nodded, feeling like he was lying but I went back into the room, waking Liam up.

"Liam, can you drive me home?" I softly whispered.

"Mhm..Why?" He asked, still half asleep.

"I dunno.. My dad said he wants me home." I said, knowing his mom might still be able to hear me.

"Mkay." He yawned, sitting up and rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

"C'mon." He smiled, wrapping his arm around my waist before leading me downstairs and to his car.

"I thought your dad lives in New York?" He asked, getting in the driver seat.

"He does, it was Darry who called, said it was an emergency and I needed to get home." I sighed. "It's probably a bunch of bullshit but I'd rather go then have them come here again and drag me there.

He nodded, heading towards greaser territory and I just sat there silently. His hand was on my thigh as I looked out the window, still tired.

Within what felt like no time he pulled up to the house and I softly smiled, getting out.

"Thank you." I smiled, walking to his side of the car, leaning into the window and softly kissing him.

"You're welcome." He smiled against my lips, softly kissing me back. I slowly pulled away, quickly pecking his lips before I walked onto the porch, waving to him before I walked into the house where the whole gang was, everybody but Dallas.

"Lemme guess he's locked up again?" I mumbled, making everyone turn their attention to me.

"You're finally back!" Keith exclaimed, quickly hugging me and spinning me in circles.

"Woah.. Put me down." I groaned, kicking around. He dropped me and I fell flat on my ass and I just groaned, laying there.

"Yeah, he robbed a store, and the cops caught him. Sylvia was with Tim last night." Steve laughed, it was pretty much normal at this point.

I rolled my eyes but I couldn't help but laugh a little. Dallas was such an idiot.

"That means you and Dallas can get your thing on again." Steve smirked.

"I-What?" I blushed.

"What?!" Keith exclaimed. I glared at Steve and stood up, dusting myself off. I walked into the kitchen, groaning as I laid my forehead against the counter. I heard the boys talking and I heard someone walk in, hesitantly wrapping their arms around me.

"Who is it?" I mumbled, about the kick them in the nuts.

"I-It's Pony." He whispered. I sighed, not wanting to hurt him so I just turned around and hugged him, laying my head on his chest. I could feel him blushing but he just hugged me back.

"It's not fair you are 4 years younger than me but you are still like 6 inches taller than me." I softly chuckled.

"You're just short." He laughed, laying his chin on my head.

"I'm 5'5!" I exclaimed.

"Yeah you're short." He smirked. I nudged his shoulder, rolling my eyes before walking to the fridge, grabbing a beer.

"What'd you do last night kid?" I asked, popping the beer open.

"Just read, played cards with Johnny, lost a whole pack of cigs to him." He scoffed, slightly smiling.

"Want me to win them back?" I smirked, chugging the beer down.

"Sure." He smiled, quickly grabbing cards.

"Johnnycakessss~" I smirked walking to the living room.

"Huh?" He asked, turning towards me.

"C'mon. I heard you beat Pony last night so play against me." I smiled, grabbing his arm and dragging him to the kitchen.

"W-whyyy~" He whined, not picking his feet up and forcing me to drag him.

"God you got heavy." I groaned, pushing him into a seat. "Because I said so." He pouted and I just laughed at him, sitting across from him, shuffling the cards.

I dealt some cards, starting off the game. I played bad at first, making Johnny laugh at me losing but I got him right where I wanted him.

"If I lose again I'm done with this." I mumbled, acting frustrated, but it was already getting late and it was almost time for dinner. Johnny just laughed at me as he had half my pack of kools.

I dealt the cards, smirking and I quickly won the game. I won my pack of kools back and I won his pack. I threw the pack to Ponyboy and leaned back in my seat.

"Care for another match Johnnycakes?" I sweetly smiled. He was pouting, his arms crossed and he was sunk down in his chair.

"No. You fooled me." He mumbled. I just laughed at him, throwing a cigarette at him and he immediately smiled.

"Horse man, it's almost sunset." I yelled as I saw he went to his bedroom. I heard a couple snickers from the living room but I just got up, taking Johnny with me to the front porch, lighting a cigarette and smoking it as I laid in the lawn as I looked up at the sky.

I didn't even look away when I heard the door open. I saw Pony lay next to me out of the corner of my eye and Johnny laid on the other side of me.

"Y'all are my favorite out of the whole gang. You guys don't annoy me and question me all the time. You're like my little brothers who aren't super protective." I whispered, breaking the silence.

"You wouldn't listen to us either way." Pony chuckled, still looking up at the sky.

"True." I softly chuckled.

"But I love you guys.. And I never tell anyone I love them." I whispered, not looking at them because I didn't want to make it anymore awkward than it already was.

"W-we love you too." Johnny softly whispered, laying his head on my shoulder. I softly smiled, laying my head on his.

"Yeah. So does the gang. They might not show it and they are annoying but they love you too." Pony softly smiled.

"I just wish Keith wasn't such an ahole." I mumbled. Pony nodded and I just sighed, standing up once the sun set.

"C'mon, let's get dinner." I said, standing up and kicking Johnny's foot. He groaned, getting up and we walked inside as I stomped my cigarette out.
