I woke up under the play structure Dal was sharpening a piece of tan bark with his blade.

I crawled out seeing it was about 6 am the sun was about to rise.

"Johnny where you goin?"

Dal didn't seem tired.

"Have you slept yet?"

"No, I don't wanna"

I stood up and Dal followed. It stopped raining but everything was still wet. I saw grey clouds in the sky still.

"It sure is nice ain't it johnnycake"

I didn't know what to say because I didn't think so.

I walked to the street as Dally ran after me.

He put his arm around my shoulder. It was still hurting.

"Where do ya wanna go now?"

I starting walking down the street, I remembered this old cottage with a record player the gang showed me. As we were walking Dally wouldn't stop humming Elvis. He sure loved Elvis.

As we reached the cottage I opened the door.

It was stuck for a second but I finally got it open making Dal laugh.

"Nice place you got here" Dal said as he picking cobwebs from his hair.

Dal pulled out a cigarette and lit it making the whole door way light up.

The floor was creeking.

"What would we do here anyways?" Dally said sounding frustrated.

"Whatever you want"

I sat down in the old wood floor.

Dal sat in front of me.

"This is a good hiding place" Dal said giving me the chills.

"What?"

"You know, just in case something happens."

I was confused. I know when Dal does something wrong.

"This place sure is old"

"Its somewhere only we know"
