cherish > dallas winston x reader

05.

Hey All, it's been years, I've missed writing. I hope y'all will still find it in your heart to read this book. I wanna keep continuing it. I keep rereading this and I just love Elaine and Dally's growth. I love you all!

I woke up to the beating sun in my eyes, I look over to the clock, 8:52 it read. I blink a few times trying to figure out where I am. My eyes go wide, realizing I fell asleep at Dallas Winston's apartment. Fuck, Darry's gonna be so angry with me. I look over next to me seeing Dallas lying next to me in the bed, I look at his eyes closed, he looks so peaceful I thought to myself,

He looks so beautiful, his chain around his neck, no shirt on. Damn I thought, how could one look so good. I think he started to feel my stare, he started to rub his eyes. I quickly lay back down and close my eyes hoping I can act like I wasn't staring, or maybe he didn't feel my stare. He puts one hand on his head looking at me. I open one eye.. seeing him staring.

"Hi" I whisper. He smirks at me still looking at me. I giggle. Like a little schoolgirl. "I felt you staring. Don't try to cover it up" I smile so big it almost hurts. I quickly cover my eyes with a pillow. He grabs the pillow smacking me with it. "Hey" I frown "watch it big boy."

"Try to act tough all you want kid I know you" he gets up putting on his shirt. I smile to myself. He looks over at me smirking and walking back over to me and tilting my chin up. I stared into his eyes as he did mine. My cheeks started heating up. He pinched my cheek, noticing my cheeks getting red. "Oh, Elaine Cmon now, I know you have a little crush on me."

I smack his hand away knowing he can't get to me like that "In your dreams Winston, now we better get me back home before Darry gets mad.

"Darry oughta know you've been gone by now." I roll my eyes at him. "Dallas this is serious we gotta hurry." He grabs a cigarette, lighting the damn thing. He looks at up at me. "Okay El"

————————————————————————

We arrive back at the Curtis household, I quietly sneak into my house hoping Darry isn't awake yet. Dallas watches me from the sidewalk. I wave him off. He blows me a quick kiss. I quietly shut the door and tip toe up my stairs right into my room. I see Soda sleeping in our bed. I silently curse to myself praying he doesn't say anything to our older brother.

I crawl into bed quietly but, it wakes Soda up, he turns to me grabbing my waist and bringing me into his chest, kissing my forehead. "Where were ya?" He whispers to me in a groggy voice. I nervously play with my fingers again. Looking up at him I say "i accidentally fell asleep at Dally's. Please please don't tell Darry, he'll kill me." Soda laughs and smiles sniffling a little.

"You're dead meat girl." I look up at him nudging his face a little to let him know I'm confused. "I'm kiddin with ya, I won't tell. Young love?" I laugh smacking his chest and making a face at him, he still has his eyes closed I notice. "No love, just friends you little shit." I say as I laugh.

He smiles again holding me tighter, "Sure whatever you say goes little lady."

Guys I've missed this book so much, I love how all the characters get along so well, I especially love how close Soda pop and Elaine are. I also missed you all so much :)
