If you are not caught up in le certain situation. Here's a breakdown. Adri and Dal both like each other but have, serious issues.
Adri is suffering from Dementia. It's a mental disorder, that can happen due to injury. (peep how adrienne hit her head) Some of the symptoms include, hallucinations. Basically describing what is happening when Adri will say something that doesn't make sense or isn't something that is likely to happen. She just sees it as such. A few more symptoms that will be displayed in the book is the paranoia factor, anxiety, depression, and the muscular aspects, like falling. (bet ya didn't know this much about dementia huh) But this is a heads up, and a recap. And a little more insight on what's happening in this story. Don't want y'all to be left behind.

Dallas's POV
It's been a few weeks since Adrienne's been out of the hospital. I've sorta been avoiding her. She's staying at the Curtis house, so Darry can keep up with her meds. She's demented apparently. But to me she's not. She's fine, she's just a little off. Ya know? Meaning I kept myself away from the house. And to occupy myself I'd been working extra hours, and causing trouble with the cops. Which resulted in me doing a few days but it was a little better than being smacked in the face with the harsh reality of my feelings. Even If I couldn't escape them.
I'd caught up with Two and Steve a while back. They said The Gang was missing me especially Adri. They even said she was whining once all day because of me, but they also said she was scared of a big spider that wasn't there and wasn't moving. So I couldn't take all the credit. In all fairness I missed Adri too though. Her warm aura that quickly changed when she was yelling at me or thinking about something she didn't like. As I was sitting at Bucks, I was sitting at the closed off area where I'd, I guess you could say, released my fury on her, that was continued upstairs.
"Stupid." I mumbled, as I took a long drag on my blunt. Buck had new Glass Tables. 4 feet wide.The next day I decided I might as well go and see the gang. It's been a long while. I shrugged on my leather jacket over a white tank/t-shirt. I pulled on my dark blue jeans and greased my hair back. I was happy with how I looked. I left out of Bucks, and went to his car. And began a drive to the Curtis house they felt somewhat like an eternity.
Adrienne's POV
As of right now, I was being cradled on the couch, by a surprisingly caring Bella. I'd screamed and started sobbing minutes ago, I'd seen a semi-truck fly out of the wall. I thought it was going to hit me. But now I was fine. I just liked laying there, she had a sort of motherly aura. Everyone was mostly quiet. Little chatter, and a few laughs here and there. Steve and Helena went to Steve's house. Besides them, everyone was there. Except for Dally. And I miss him. A lot. I'd try to start a conversation with Bella several times. But she'd just cover my mouth and continue to watch twilight zone. But it was okay, because if needed be, if anyone could take care of me, it'd be her. Only a few minutes later, Dallas walked in. He looked hot, like really hot. I resisted the urge to jump up and attack him with hugs and kisses. He was too perfect, and I don't even mean his appearances. Everyone waved or said their hi's.
"Hi Dally!" I waved, smiling like a little kid. I didn't notice what I was doing, until he smirked and simply said, "What's up Adri?" in his accent. I felt myself turn a bright red. It wasn't a compliment or anything. I guess I just really like the way he says my name.
"Chill out buddy." Bella said laughing and rubbing my forehead. I don't know exactly why she did that but I laughed it off, and directed my attention to a Dallas already consumed in another conversation. He misses these guys I thought. I wouldn't blame him, they're good people. I started seeing clouds in the living room. They were dark clouds. It was scaring me. It was scaring me to death. And I wanted to scream, but a part of me was embarrassed. Because Dally was there. I couldn't help it. I was terrified. And let out a scream as I bolted out the house. I started seeing shapes in those clouds. And those shapes made me remember some things.Dallas' POV
When she bolted out the house I hadn't the slightest idea of why. Bella went shortly after her, and so did Roxy. I felt like I should've too. But I couldn't bring myself to.
"GO!" Sodapop shouted at me. I put down the deck of cards and ran out the door. What was I thinking just sitting there. She could be hurt and I was sitting fighting my conscience. Even if it was for a few seconds. I'd seen the girls on a playground, next her. But Bella on top of her. I guess she had to tackle her to stop her. Adrienne was crying. Which broke my heart. Even from this far. I walked over slightly and Bella sort of let up. She saw me coming and then got off of Adri completely. When Adri looked up at me, I saw a sort of embarrassment in her eyes but also fear. Lots of it.
I kneeled beside her.
"Heyy, don't cry," I started wiping her tear stained cheek. "It's okay, your okay.." I said and looked her in her eyes. She wrapped her arms around my waist and cried into my chest. I rubbed her back. And we stayed like that for a while. Bella and Roxy decided to leave. They said that they thought I had this under control. She wouldn't budge for a good 10 minutes even after the girls left. She wasn't crying either. Just taking in and releasing shaky breaths. I picked her up. Her legs wrapped around my front and her head on my shoulder. And I took her back to the Curtis house. I carried her upstairs. And put her down on the bed gently. I hadn't realized she was asleep on the way back. At least she should be cried out and tired. I know that wears me out. I don't blame her. She opened her eyes when I laid her down. She looked at me confused.
"Where are you going?" She asked me.
"Back downstairs, get some rest." I said walking towards the door.
"No," She said sternly. "Come here."
I went up next to her bed. "Yes?" I asked.
She patted the spot next to her on the bed and I sat. She then pulled me down so I was laying next to her as she snuggled herself closer to me. I realized then I didn't want to go downstairs anymore. I wanted to stay here. And only here.Adrienne's POV
I've been wanting this for a long time. I actually fell hard for him. His embrace is warmer then his eyes. And his jacket is more cozier than it looks.
