Who is she?

I asked myself as I caught the football and threw it back to my friend, Johnny. Practice was over 15 minutes ago and the gang decided to meet me at the school field.

"Hey Max, throw the ball!" Two-bit yelled at me. I may have gotten angry at him and threw the ball straight at his head.

Keith, aka Two-bit is the type of guy who can't take anything seriously. One time I had to go to a job and he decided to follow me there and did it as 'a prank' .. Yeahhh I didnt talk to him for bout a week.

Most people dont remember Two's real name unless they get really mad at him, remember he was bother Pony and Darry got so mad and cussed him out using his real name, I laughed the whole time.

"What are you looking at?" Darry asked with a arm rapped around my shoulder.

"Nothin Darry.." I mumbled.

"It's something alright.. Is it the girl over there?" He whispered the girl part last.

Darry is a fatherly figure to Myles, Violet, and I. Myles met him from Sodapop, Darry's first younger brother. One day Myles and I needed help and they were the only ones to do that, so his family to us is family. We could go over there anytime we needed help or needed someone to talk to.

"No..."

Darry punched me. "Go talk to her kid"

"O-Okay.." I said as I started to walk towards the brown headed girl.

What happens if she thinks I'm a creep? Or a weirdo or even a pervert or maybe I hippie because I smoke Mary Jane all of the time and sell it, what happens if she doesn't want to talk to me at a-

"Ow.." I mumbled as I stood up from the ground.

A rock. Really!?

I kicked the rock. "Stupid rock."

A few giggles come from a few inches away. I looked up and seen it dark brown haired girl with brown eyes laughing at me from a tree in front of me.

I looked up at her meanly and rolled my eyes as I got up.

Some people said that Myles and I would look like twins that were children of the devil. Myles being a bad kid growing up till he got into high school.. He may get into some fights then and there but he changed. Me being a seller (nobody doesn't know that by the way..) Some people thought I would be the devil when I was angry.

"Hey.." I said to the girl with the brown eyes.

"H-Hi.. Sorry for laughing at you back there.." She apologized.

"It's okay.. Can I sit?"

The girl quickly moved her stuff. "Y-Yeah! Of course"

I quickly took a seat next in the grass next to her.

"So.." I started.

Dont sound stupid max.

"Are you new round here?.."

"Umm.."

Dammit Max!

"N-Not to seem like a creep or anything!" I screamed out with my hands up in defense.

The brown eyed girl laughed. "Its okay.. I'm new, I just moved on Saturday.. I start school tomorrow"

"Oh.. I go there too.. And some of my friends over there do to.." I pointed to the gang who was playing football.

"Well thats nice.. Hey.. What's ya name?" Brown eyed girl asked me.

Do I tell her my real name?..

"Maxine.." I mumbled. I was always ashamed of my real name because I hated my parents, so I hated my name also.

The girl tilted her head sideways. Her eyes met mine.

"You dont look like a Maxine.." She stated.

I laughed a little and looked at the sky then back at her. "Well that's why I go by Max."

"Well.. I'm Ella, Ella Wood's."

"That's a beautiful name.." Ella looked at blankly as her cheeks turned red.

I covered my mouth. "Oh shit, I-I'm sorry, you may be scared because I'm a greaser and all.. A-And I-"

Ella threw her hand on my shoulder in comfort. "Hey.. Its fine.. But.. What's a greaser?" Ella asked confusedly.

I looked up at the sky.

It's getting dark..

"How bout I tell u as I walk you home" I offered my hand out as I stood up.

"I-I don't want you going through that trouble and all.."

"Not at all, I want you to get home safe. Please, its a must."

Ella sighed and took my hand and offer.

"So can you tell me?" Ella asked as we walked across the field.

"Hey!" Darry yelled at me.

Really!? Now!? Right.Now.?

"Yesssss" I answered.

"See you tomorrow?" He asked.

I sighed in relief. "Yes, Darry."

I caught up to Ella.

"Okay so A greaser is .." I started as we walked.
