As soon as I stepped a foot in the Curtis house. Ponyboy approached me.

He said, "Hey, Dixie, just wanted to mention that summers almost out, so if you haven't registered in school it's probably time."

I said, "Oh, crap I forgot all about that! When does school start?"

He said, "Next week." I started getting nervous again.

I just went out and got a free dog, but I forgot all about school! Buck signed me up last week though.

I said, "Yeah, Buck signed me up so I will be attending this year."

He said, "Cool, so what grade will you be in?" I thought about it and said, "Probably eleventh."

He smiled and said, "Same as Two-bit." I looked at Chance just to smile.

I said, "Cool." Ok, that was so obvious I was not excited at all. Soda even looked at me weird.

That's when, Pony realized there's a puppy in the house.

He said, "Dixie, you got a puppy! What's his name?" I said, "It's Chance."

He took Chance from Soda and I said, "Say hello, Chance."

Chance just sat there in his arms licking, and wagging his tail at Ponyboy.

I said, "Chance, were going to have to train you first."

Steve came in the room with a piece of chocolate cake on a plate and beer.

He opened the beer and started chugging on it. Ponyboy let Chance loose.

Chance army crawled all the way to Steve's chair where he was laying right beside it.

He perked his ears up, and sneakily took a bite out of Steve's cake.

After Steve had noticed his cake was being eaten, he yelled, "Hey! Get back here you, mutt!"

I quickly picked up Chance letting all the chocolate get out of his mouth.

I said, "Oh no! What if he gets sick!" Steve whined, "What about my cake?"

Soda said, "Steve, there's more in the fridge." Steve ran as fast as he could to the kitchen.

Chance digested the cake, and it was soon gone. I said, "No vomiting, no gagging, and no symptoms of sickness."

Ponyboy said, "I guess Chance doesn't get sick from chocolate."

I said, "Well, that's good because that's all you guys ever eat here."

Soda said, "Yeah, that's true." Ponyboy said, "Wait, I might have a ball in my room Chance can have."

As he stood up, I thanked him. Ponyboy did come back with a ball and set it near Chance:
