thirty five.

***Dally's POV***

I wake up to my favorite thing in the world: Alex, with her adorable sleeping face, shoving herself against me, wearing my clothes. She looks so hot in them.

Her lips part slightly as she breaths in and out. I smile to myself and just take some time and appreciate her, taking in all of her beauty. Even though I'm sure neither of us have changed or showered in over 4 days, I could stare at her for hours.

Soon enough, other people start waking up, and Alex wakes up too. Whenever we're home and it's just the two of us, we'll lay in bed for hours and just talk. Sometimes we'll make out, sometimes she'll want to take a bubble bath so I climb in with her, sometimes I want to shower and she'll join me, and sometimes I take her out to breakfast. We can't really do any of those things, though we both need to shower pretty bad. Alex doesn't smell, she's just covered in dirt. But that doesn't stop me from spooning with her.

The winds have subsided a bit, so I'm guessing we won't be here much longer. I'm pretty sure everyone wants to get home and do whatever they need to do.

My stomach growls, and Alex - who is laying on top of me - giggles. I lean down and kiss her lightly.

"Good morning, Beautiful," I tell her. She smiles and nuzzles deeper into my chest.

After a while of just laying around, another siren goes off, signaling that it's okay to come back up above ground. The whole gang breathes a sigh of relief and we all begin to gather our stuff.

Alex wraps herself around me like a koala, and I stand up with her hanging onto me. Neither of us touched our clothes bags, so I easily pick them up and have Alex carry them so I can keep her elevated.

The gang says their goodbyes, and everyone who hasn't been staying at the Curtis house goes their own ways. Alex waves for us as we walk down the streets towards our house.

When we reach the front porch, I set her down in front of me. I grab her hips and I kiss her. I try to send the message that I love her through my kiss. I think she got it because I get the same type of thing from her.

She pulls away slowly and smiles. "I really need to shower so badly."

"I'll meet you in there, sweetheart," I say and open the door for her.

***Alex's POV***

I smell AWFUL. I don't know how I went that long without a shower. I immediately strip down and throw myself into the shower. 

I start washing my hair and rinsing my body with soap when I hear Dally come into the bathroom.

"Mind if I join you, Princess?" he asks.

I shake my head and he hops in behind me. He snakes an arm around my stomach from behind.

"You're so sexy," he whispers into my ear. I smile and turn to face him.

"We're finally alone, huh?" I say, draping my arms around his neck. His eyes darken with lust as he attacks my lips with his.

He slams me up against the shower wall, making my knees weaken. Things are about to go down - literally - when he suddenly pulls away.

"Alex, I'm in love with you," he says slowly as if he's unsure if he actually does.

"I'm in love with you too," I say happily.

"You are!?" he says and his eyes widen happily. He kisses me briefly before jumping out of the shower and running through the house like a child. 

Then he runs out into the streets.

Butt ass naked.

Thank god we don't have very many neighbors.

"I AM IN LOVE WITH ALEX MATTHEWS!" he screams. I laugh and the phone starts ringing.

"Hello?" I say.

"Hey Alex, so I'm at home with Lauren, Victoria, Johnny, Kayla, Ponyboy, and Soda, and we were just wondering if Dally is the one screaming at the top of his lungs that he's in love with you?" Darry says with a laugh.

I peek outside and notice that he's still yelling and hooting and jumping around. "Um, yeah that would be Dallas," I say, laughing as well.

 "Soda, you owe me a dollar!" I hear Ponyboy shout. 

"So y'all are in loveeeee," Darry says, elongating the end of the word.

"Darry, shut up, we all know you're in love with Lauren," I say and people on the other line start laughing their tails off. Darry laughs too and says a quick goodbye before hanging up.

I wrap a blanket around my body and run out to the front porch. "DALLAS! I LOVE YOU BUT PLEASE PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!" I remind him. It suddenly starts raining and he stops.

"ONLY IF YOU JOIN ME!" he says and spins around with his arms out, taking in the rain.

I laugh and race out to join him. My damp hair gets soaked as we dance around together.

"Alex, come here," Dally says. I walk over to him and he grabs my face.

"Sorry I did all of that, I've just never been in love with someone before," he says. 

"Me either," I confess. "Kiss me, I've always wanted to be kissed in the rain by the love of my life."

He leans in and the rain almost seems to stop as fireworks fly between the two of us.
