Notice Me?

Dally and Helena sitting in a tree

I yawn as I try and sit up finally waking up only to be restrained by an arm, looking down at the snoring Dallas I smile. He looks so cute and cuddly. I pry his arm off of me and try to slip out of bed unnoticed.

"Bye Lena, see ya later," Dal says still half asleep.

"Bye Dally," I say grabbing my jacket and leaving.

Hopping down the stairs I hear a wolf whistle.

"Damn Lena, never though you'd get with ole Dally up there," Buck smirks.

My cheeks go bright red, "It's not what you think Buck," I say lacing up my shoes.

"Sure about that?" He waggles his eyebrow.

"Goodbye Buck," I say closing the door behind me.

"Hi Helena!" Twobit yells with a beer sloshing in his hand.

"Hiya Twobit, doing anything today?" I ask him.

"I was thinking about running around and gettin drunk," he said.

"Aren't you already drunk though?" I inquire already knowing the answer.

He smirks, "yes ma'am," he says while getting up.

I just laugh and walk into the kitchen.

"Good Morning Lena how are you?" Darry asks with a cup of coffee in one hand and the newspaper in the other.

"Good what about you?" I ask in reply.

"Eh, same old," he chuckles.

I've always admired Darry, he's so strong not only physically but mentally and emotionally. He's been through a ton and he has to act 35 when's he's barely over 20. The poor guy's been worked to death and he's barely had a girlfriend. He pushes through each day for his brothers, sure Sodas money helps but Darry is where most money comes from.

I always try my best to help Darry whenever I can. He's an older brother to me I love him.

I grab the empty plates on the table and walk over to the sink to start cleaning

"Aww Helena you don't have to do that," Darry smiles at me.

"Don't worry about it Darr, you work too much let me help out," I smile at him and continue to clean.

Darry comes over and kisses me on the forehead, "Thank you Helena you help me so much."

I grin up at him and give him a hug, "Be safe at work big guy, don't wear yourself out."

"Don't worry about me Hel, I got these bad boys," Darry smiles as he flexes his giant arms.

I gotta admit he's pretty built. I roll my eyes and go back to cleaning the dirt dishes that have been piled up in the sink.

"What about me Dare-Bear where's my kissy wissy," TwoBit says in a high pitches voice, pouting his lips.

Darry grabs his lunch and whacks TwoBit upside the head as he leaves.

"Bye Keith," Darry says as he shuts the door.

TwoBit slumps and goes back to watching tv.

"Just because you get all the affection doesn't mean I'm not his favorite Hel," Two-Bit huffs.

"Awwww is baby TwoBit maaaad, because im Darry's favorite and everyone knows it," I say in a mocking tone.

TwoBit grabs the nearest object which happens to be a piece of paper and crumples it before chucking it at my head. I laugh as I dodge it.

"Uhm I'm pretty positive I'm his favorite," Soda laughs walking in the room.

"Shut up, just cause you have a pretty face doesn't make you everyones favorite," TwoBit huffs.

Soda flashes his movie star smile at Two and walks over to the table.

"Where's all the cake?" Soda asks scanning the area.

I could almost hear TwoBit smirk from across the house. Soda gasps at he looks over at TwoBit shoveling half the cake in his mouth.

"You son of a bitch," Soda says in disbelief as he runs over to tackle TwoBit.

Just then Dally enters the house and steps over the two boys to get to where I was standing.

"Where were ya this morning? I looked over and you were gone," Dal says.

The wrestling boys stop and gasp in shock together.

"You slept over at Dally's place?" Soda says his mouth wide open.

"Y-yeah?" I say more as a question than a response.

TwoBit gets up and starts yelling, "Dally and Helena sitting in a tree, K I S-" he is quickly silenced by Dally's hand covering his mouth then slapping the back of his head with his other hand.

"Grow up TwoBit you are so lame," I groan, trying to hide my flushed face by turning away.

"You're mad because he's right," Soda grins.

"Don't make me come over there and slap the shit out of the both of ya," I threaten.

The boys stay quiet still smiling at each other then looking at me and Dal. I flip them both the bird and finish the last dish. I dry my hands then walk over and plop down in Darry's chair.

Just then Pony comes walking out of his room with his cute little bed head. He looks to the empty table then back at TwoBit's chocolate smeared face and glares daggers into him.

"Morning Pony, I can make eggs if you want," I say walking over to the boy to give him a hug.

"Okay Helena, thank you, glad I won't go hungry because some dimwit doesn't know self control," Pony says side eyeing TwoBit.

Morning Pony is not someone you wanna deal with, he's crankier than me on my period. And I'm pretty bad, one time a soc was testing me when I was cramping and I slashed all four of his tires.

I walk over to the stove and crack an egg on a skillet. The sizzling reminds me of every summer morning when my dad would make me breakfast before I went to go play with my friends. For some reason I get a little teary eyed but blink it away before anyone notices.

The door opens and in walks Johnny. I forget all about the eggs and rush over to give him a giant bear hug. Johnny may not look like it but he gives the best hugs, they are always so comforting and makes me feel calm and safe.

"Mornin Johnny Boy," I smile, "hungry?" I ask.

"Yes but you don't have to cook for me," he says.

"Don't worry about it," I grin again.

I can't not smile when I see Johnny, he has my whole heart. He is the worlds sweetest kid and couldn't even hurt a fly. I've always had a soft spot for him, he's one of my best friends. He's the brother I've never had. We always talk to each other about our thoughts and feelings. If i tried to talk to any of the other guys they wouldn't understand, expect Darry but he already has too much to worry about. They all have thick skulls and try to hide their emotions to seem tough.

"Hey Johnny man," Dal says giving a slight wave to him.

"Hey Dal," Johnny says with a small smile.

He's always looked up to Dallas. How he is always so cool and tuff. The way he doesn't care about anything and does whatever he wants.

I go back to makes breakfast as the boys talk about their plans for the day.

A/n so I haven't been on this app in a hot minute, i'm sorry for leaving so many books unfinished. I've been busy with school and life and have honestly had major writer's block for a long time. I hope i can make more updates in the near future
