Its been a week since the fight. Ive only left the house if i was with Chris, Gordie, Teddy, and Vern. They found out what happened when they tickled it out of me. They were pissed, but i made them promise they would just pretend nothing happened. I knew they were all having a hard time with that because they wanted me to be my old happy self. But i just couldnt do it.
I was trying to sleep, but i was wide awake. It was seven in the morning and i just wanted to sleep in. It was Sunday for crying out loud. I got up and Easton was making breakfast. He didnt know why i was so depressed, but i can tell he wanted to know. "Is there something wrong i should know about?", he asked. See, i knew it. "I guess so. I walked in on Soda and Sandy making out", i said. He just shook his head. "I told you he wasnt the guy for you, but you didnt listen." "Thats not all East. He called me a bitch, and said he wished he had never dated me or had Austin and Patrick", i was close to tears again.
"He did what?!", he almost yelled. "Relax. Im over it, kinda. Im going to check on the boys. Ill be back", i said. Already i could tell the boys screams apart. Austin had a whiny scream when Patrick had a high pitched scream. Austin was the one crying. I was changing his diaper when i heard a firm knock at the door. Easton answered it since i was back here with the boys. "What are you doing here?", Easton asked. "Im here for my boys", the other answered. I could just tell by Eastons tone that Soda was at the door.
"Like hell you are", Easton replied. "They are mine too. I can see them if i want", Soda said angrily. "Not if you deliberately said you wished you never had them", Easton told him. "I didnt mean what i said", Soda said. He didnt sound sincere though. "Yeah right. Your only seventeen. Forget about Belle. She doesnt need you. She has been perfectly fine without you. Forget you even have two kids. They wont be your responsibility anymore. Go out with some other girl and break their hearts, but you wont do that to my sister", Easton finished.
"I can file a court case against you to get full custody of the kids if she doesnt let me see them!", he yelled. "None of us have that kind of money. Good bye Soda", Easton said, closing the door. He walked back to the nusery, which is my moms old room. "You heard all that, didnt you?", he asked. I nodded my head, tears flowing from my eyes. "I love you Easton, but you dont have to fight my battles", i said. "Id be happy too", he said. Later i went out with Chris and Vern to the park. We just hung out and i smiled for the first time in forever.

I ran home all upset. She cant keep my kids from me. Its not like im a crazy psycho killer or anything. I walked through the door and only my brothers were home, thats kind of weird. I guess with my fight with Dally the week before made everyone mad. My thought was, they arent coming back til Belle did. I walked up to Darrys chair and kneeled down. He looked over at me, then back to his paper.
"What is it Sodapop?", he asked. "I need some money", i asked. "For what?", he asked. "A court case." He threw his paper across the room snd nearly jumped from his chair. "Why do you need a court case?", he asked suspiciously. "Because Belle wont let him see his kids", Pony spoke up. I glared at him, but he was to focused on tv to notice. "Soda, you know i dont have that kind of money", Darry began, "and you screwed up pretty bad. If you really wanted to see those look alikes of yours, i would patch things up with Belle", Darry said.
"Uhhhh", i sighed loudly storming out of the house. I then got an idea. I walked until i finally got into soc territory. There were a bunch hanging out at some park of theres. Soon enough, they noticed me. "Greaser what are you doing on our side of town?", one asked. "Look i know im not supposed to be over here, but i have something that you can make good use of your money for", i smiled evilly. "And that would be?", they asked. "Want to maje another greaser miserable?", i asked. We then started to hatch out the plan.
