masterpiece (the outsiders)

rough start

Living as the kid sister of Dallas Winston was a set up for a tuff life. That, along with being stuck on the wrong side of the tracks.

"Last year, Dally turned eighteen and our dear Grandmother from Chicago passed away. With that, Dallas gained the inheritance of a reasonably decent amount of money. Just enough to purchase a small one bedroom house in the East Side of town. This at least managed to pay for the house for just a little bit. But it wouldn't last forever..."

Georgia looked up from writing in her diary as Dally entered her room. "I'm heading out" he announced just barely peeking his head in slightly. "Alright, I'll see you tonight" Georgia replied while giving him a small, soft smile. Dally gave a subtle nod then headed out. Georgia watched him leave from her window and then closed her diary. She shoved the book under the mattress and waited until Dallas was out of sight. It was around 7:30, Georgia knew she wouldn't see him again until tomorrow morning. After getting changed into a short dress with a jacket, she saw her Soc friend pull up in front of her house. Somehow she had made her way into soc's good books, regardless of her status. Which was different for most greasers.

Georgia walked out of her house and got into her friend's car. "Alright G, this is your one chance. Don't blow it for me," said Kate. She was a blonde headed 'IT' girl who cared a lot about her reputation. This was Georgias first party with college kids. Most greasers never had the chance at college, so she was most worried about how they might think of her. 'fake it till you make it.' she said to herself in her head before taking a deep breath. With that, Kate drove off and toward the party.

Upon arrival, Georgia made sure to pull her dress down and she adjusted her jacket. Kate took notice of this and rolled her eyes. "This is the time to act like a grown up. Don't act too uptight or no one will want to get to know you." Georgia opened her jacket more and loosened up as they entered the house. She was nervous, but she was good about pretending otherwise. She clenched her jaw as she watched several eyes follow her inside. She walked with Kate and attempted to act confident.

Somehow Georgia lost Kate and was stuck standing alone in the kitchen on the house. She was sipping out of a red solo cup and repeatedly lit her lighter. The brunette sighed before feeling warm hands on her thighs. Feeling startled she jumped and turned around quickly. "At ease." the male said in a clearly drunk manner. "I'm James," He said with a charming smile. Georgia laughed a bit and put her lighter away in her sweater pocket. "Georgia," she said introducing herself over the music. "Want to go for a walk? It's kind of loud in here," he laughed slightly. Georgia pondered for a moment then nodded. "Yeah, sounds good," she said slightly unsure. She didn't want to be a tease nor to get killed, but she wanted to be out of her comfort zone.

The two walked and talked for a little while before reaching a park that Georgia was familiar with. They walked a bit more till eventually, he was leaning over her. Georgia's heart was pounding, she was getting nervous again. A harmless makeout was fine, but she wasn't willing to go further with him. That's what she was nervous about. "You're really hot.," James said. It wasn't the most gentlemanly thing to say to a girl, but Georgia put it past her. James' lips collided with Georgia's and they slowly grew more passionate. She was pushed up against a tree and he began kissing her neck. She bit her lip as his hands began moving down her body. She gently pushed them away, but he continued to keep trying. "stop." she muttered. Eventually, he became more forceful and somehow managed to slip her underwear down. "Hey! Stop!" she tried to shove him off but she wasn't strong enough."Get off!" Just as he began moving toward undoing his pants, someone had grabbed him and threw him on the ground. Georgia wasn't paying attention much but she quickly pulled her underwear back up. "She said to stay off." The voice was familiar but Georgia was struggling to make out who it was.

Georgia wiped her tears away then her vision slowly cleared up. She then saw Soda on top of James practically beating James to death. "Stop!" Georgia ran over to Soda and pulled him off of James. "Not cool man." James wiped the blood off his mouth then quickly stood up and ran off. Soda had a look of aggression on his face. "I didn't need your help." Georgia said and shoved Soda away she then started walking away from the boy. Soda grabbed her arm and turned around. "I saved you from that dude, what do you mean?" Georgia was startled. "Don't touch me!" she shouted. "I'm sorry..." he said calmly. "What are you doing hanging around soc's anyways..." he said with judgment in his tone. "They're my friends." She scoffed not wanting to admit who her 'friends' really were. She knew they sucked, but being with the soc's made her feel safer at school. "Just please don't tell Dally... and what were you doing here this late anyway," she said realizing he was just oddly at the park to save her at just the right time. "Darry and Ponyboy were fighting again, I needed space... but just let me walk you home, please." He had a different tone in his voice now, and it was calming to Georgia. "Okay." She replied as they both walked off back to Georgia's house.
