Our Luck May Change (The Outsiders FF)

Chapter 1

Sarah's POV

I sat on the porch waiting for Kelsey, so we could walk to school. I reached in my pocket for my chapstick. Switchblade, no. Shriveled up note, no. Bingo. I popped the cap off it and smeared the vanilla gloss over my lips.

Then, I noticed my brunette best friend walking down the street. She wore a plain white shirt, her leather jacket, jean shorts, and of course, her black high top Chucks.

Her backpack slung over her shoulder as she ruffled her hair. I got up and walked next to her and we both were on our way to school.

"Hey." I said.

"What's up? Did your dad bother you?" She questioned.

"He wasn't that bad." I replied.

My father is like any other hood's father. A mean drunk, he's so stressed, from my mother dying and work. My mom passed away nine years ago when I was 8. My parents were sweet, nice, and caring until my mom got hit by a car. I get tears in my eyes just thinking about it.

I quick wiped them away before Kelsey saw them. Kelsey has the same problem, except she has both her parents. But, yeah her parents are alcoholics.

We just talked all the way to school. Our usual stuff. Movies, books, and music.

We walked into the school of screaming students. It's honestly a pain in the ass to walk from class to class in a "Soc" dominated school. All the Greasers are either dropouts, or skip. Only a few Greasers actually go. Including my crush!

Do I love him? AHHH! He's so cute and so funny! I love him so much! I don't think he likes me though. I see him in the hallways at school and around town sometimes. It sucks we only have one class together!

Kelsey and I walked down the hallway to our lockers. On the way I looked over to the side to see Two-Bit being scolded by a teacher. Yes, my crush!

The teacher yelled, "Detention, after school!"

"Yeah, sure, whatever." He said trying to get away from the teacher.

A grin grew on my face.

"Sarah, you're so lucky your crush goes to our school. That means you get to see him everyday!" Kelsey whined.

"I told you a million times! Go get a job at The DX. So you can see him everyday too!" I said.

Kelsey likes a Greaser who dropped out of school a couple of years ago. He works at The DX so he can help pay the bills for him and his brothers. I believe he has a brother named, Darry that also works full time. But yeah, his parents passed away in an auto wreck like my mother. His name is Sodapop and he has a younger brother who's a freshman named, Ponyboy. The good thing is that Two-Bit and Sodapop hangout or I guess are in the same group of friends!

"I'll go with you to get the job. After school let's do it!" I exclaimed opening my locker.

Kelsey sighed, then smiled, "Okay."

"You'll get to know him better and you'll get close!" I smiled and winked at the end.

"I know!" She said nervously. We got our stuff and headed to our first class.
