It All Started With Dallas.- a Dallas Winston fanfic

Chapter 21

A couple of days had passed by and still no sign of Johnny or Ponyboy. The story got a little died down but how died down can a murder get ya know. I woke up to see Dal frantically getting changed.

"Hey Dal what're ya doing?" i asked. "I'm probably not supposed to tell anyone this but i'm going to visit Pony and Johnny" he said looking around for Bucks car keys. I hate not being able to tell people things but this....i really can't even slip a single word.

"can i come Dal?" i asked quietly making sure no one would hear. "I don't know man.... i don't need an extra body there to be seen" he said. "but Dal pleeeaaaseee" i whined. "I'll only let you come with me under one condition" he said. "Well what" i asked. "I need you to go ask Buck for his keys, i don't think they're here. If i ask again he'll get pissed off."

i just responded with an 'okay' and walked downstairs. "Hey Buck can Dal borrow your keys" i shouted walking down the stairs. "why didn't Dal come ask himself" Buck replied. "Because he's getting dressed" i lied. "Well you ain't that dressed either" he said back with a chuckle. I looked down realizing that i was only wearing a long T-shirt that went about to my mid thigh. "just shut up and give me the keys will ya" i snapped back. "yea here" he said throwing the keys at me.

i walked back upstairs to see Dal in jeans and no shirt. "hey can i wear that shirt" he asked. I looked behind me and back at him. "me?" i asked. "Yea who else stupid" he said. "This shirt?" i asked. "Jesus Christ yes that shirt" he said laughing a little. "Yea sure come get it" i said crossing my arms and tilting my chin up.

"Fine i will." before i knew it i was completely naked standing in front of Dallas. It wasn't a big deal until Dal made it one. "Jesus Christ! Don't you wear clothes anymore!" he yelled covering his eyes. "Dal you saw me naked like two days ago calm down" i huffed. l threw on a bra, thong, t shirt and ripped jeans.

"Yo ya ready yet or what" i heard Dal yell from the bathroom. He was inspecting his face or something i don't know. "I'm not the one who you should be yelling at" i said with a wink passing the bathroom door. I walked downstairs and Dal followed. I grabbed his brown leather jacket and we got in Bucks car and left.

The drive wasn't too long....it was tolerable. We stopped in front of a little run-down church. I'm surprised that it didn't fall down when i touched it. The church looked like it was being held together by some duct tape and chewing tobacco.

We walked in the back door, "Hey Blondie wake up" Dal said kicking Pony's bench and ruffling his hair. Holy shit. Ponyboy was freakin blonde. "Rise and shine Johnny" Dal said waking up Johnny as well. Questions flowed like a river out of their mouths. The fuzz, Sodapop, Darry, The gang, the news....all of it right there.

Dal handed Pony and letter from Soda. I could see Pony's eyes water as he read the letter but he quickly made sure no tears decided to spill out. "Pony i can't believe you're blonde....Jesus Christ ya look like me" i said playing with his knotted hair. "I know i look lousy but ya don't have to rub it in" he said with a sigh. "Nah ya look cute kid" i said back playfully.

"Damn Johnny i don't think i've ever seen you're forehead before look at that haircut" i said. I was kind of fucking around with them but they didn't care. I knew they missed me. Johnny just laughed at my remark and blushed a little. Ugh he's so cute. Dal was saying stuff to them as well and laughing along with us.

"Hey y'all wanna get a bite to eat man i'm starving" Dal said lighting up a cigarette. "Man you're starving try bologna for four days" Johnny said. We hopped into Bucks T-bird and went to the DQ. Dallas was driving like an asshole, maybe even trying to kill us.

We ate our food in the car. Man i've never seen Pony and Johnny eat that much or that fast. I ignored the conversation between Johnny and Dal in the front seat. Dal took out a heater at one point and i kicked his seat and told him to put it away.

"I got you a hangout.... a hideout. And now ya wanna split....terrific" Dal said. I didn't wanna answer him and get him all mad. I could see the thick black smoke from down the street.

"Hey what-" i began to say but it was too late. We drove closer to the church that was surrounded by kids, teachers, a school bus and smoke. The church was on fire. "Holy shit" I yelled. "What the fuck happened" Dal said. "Wonder how that started" Pony said scarily looking at Johnny.

I couldn't stand looking at this fire knowing kids were inside. Dal was still driving and i hopped over the seat and ran towards the church. "Sav get the fuck back over here" Dal yelled angrily. Soon i was joined by Johnny and Pony. There was a small glass window in front of me. Instead of waiting for Pony and Johnny to break down the door i smashed the window with my body and fell in.

My arm instantly began gushing blood. "That's about fourth stitches" i said out loud to myself. I could here Dal yelling from outside. I saw Pony and Johnny and i followed them. it was so hard to see and breathe with all this smoke. We began handing kids to Dallas from a broken window.

Pony jumped out and passed out cold right there. His arm was on fire but Dal quickly jumped on him and put it out. My foot got stuck a hole in the floor and Johnny couldn't see the window anymore. "DALLAS HELP" Johnny yelled. "BABE" i yelled after him. "IM COMING" Dal yelled jumping through the window.  Those were the last words i heard before the burning church came crashing down.

I felt like it was the end. "Thanks God, i had a good time" i said in my head right before i blacked out.
