"You're lucky to have two friends in life. You're lucky to have one good friend."

Seeing her take out that blade took me back to California. Without thinking I jumped out the car and started to ran over to her.
"AGH GOD DAMMIT!!" I forgot about my foot and fell down as soon as a got up.
"KY!!! Are you okay!?!?" Dal ran over to me and put me back in the car.
"GO STOP HER!!! She is going to kill that other girl!!" I looked over to some of the guys who were joking down a boy who looked a lot like the brunette. He obviously wanted it to end. "Look at that boy!!! They won't let him stop it. Dal please stop it."
He gave me a confused look but got out of the car and stepped up to the fight. It was too late. She had already cut the girls arm down her wrist. Dal kicked Sylvia and spit on her. Picking up the girl he ran over to the car.
"She's bleeding real bad. Get out, I'm taking her to the hospital. You stay with her brother. He practically pushed me out of the car and drove off.
The boy walked over to me.
"Are you Kaya?" He was twisting his hands real nervous like.
"Yeah. What is it to you?"
"I'm Adam, that Winston guy told me to watch you until he comes back." Watch me? Who does he think I am?
"I can take care of myself. Thank you very much." Rolling My eyes, I got a good look at him. He has fairly dark skin and black hair that was all greased back. He was pretty tall too.
"Thanks for stopping My sister from getting killed. Sylvia sure is a bitch." He was her brother. I knew they were related somehow. They really looked alike.
"No problem. Don't count on it to happen again. Only reason I had Dal stop it was because I saw you struggling. You remind me of my old friend." My old friend. Man I missed Logan...
"Yes ma'am." He sat on the curb next to me and lit a cigarette. He started to explain to me what happened. Apparently Sylvia blamed Alex (that was the chicks name) for what me and Dallas did. They don't have a good history. Adam was her twin brother, which makes sense because they look so alike. Sylvia has started to cuss at her and Alex wanted to avoid fighting. Sylvia started hitting first.The fight barely started when and Dal got there. Adam wouldn't shut up. I sure hope Alex isn't like this...
Dallas finally arrived and Adam was about to pick me up when Dallas pushed him for trying to touch me.
"Hey Dal. Stop." He rolled his eyes and shot Adam a nasty look. We all got in the car and drove to the hospital. Dallas tried to put his hand on my leg but I pushed him away.
When we got to the hospital they wouldn't let me or Dal in. Only Adam. Dallas and I sat in the Waiting room. Adam came out and told us that Alex was going to be okay. The cut wasn't too deep but still caused damage.
"It's my fault she's here..."
"What do you mean? No it's not." Dallas head rested on the wall and he was playing with end on his shirt. Man I really like him...
"Adam told me that Sylvia thought Alex was the one who messed up her car... it was us."
"What?" He shifted positions. His face remained hard. He never really smiled or looked kind.
"You heard me." I started to feel my foot burn. "It's my fault. I was the one that slashed the tires."
"She'll be fine." Nothing. He looked like he felt nothing.
"I guess. Let's get outta here it's makin me feel sick." With that we left. Dallas picked me up and put me in the car.
"Man im getting tired of carrying you around. When are ya gonna be able to walk?" I wanted to run. I NEED to run.
"Cola says within the next week."
"Cola?"
"I mean Sodapop. Cola is just what I call him sometimes."
"You and Soda seem pretty close. It's real cute." His grip on the wheel tightened as he said this.
"Yeah but he's cousin" I forced a laugh. "and my best friend. My only friend really." Theres too many fakes in this world. You're lucky if you have at least two friends in life. You're lucky if you have one good friend in life. Soda was my one friend left.
"Hey... im your boyfriend. That counts as friend too." He winked and I felt myself smile a little inside. I could never date the infamous Dallas Winston though.
"AHAHA in your dreams Winston."
"Then I guess I'll keep dreamin." He looked over at me and smiled. He genuinely smiled. That was the second time he has smiled. It looks real good on him too. His dimples are perfect.
We arrived at the house. He parked the car but didn't get out. He sat there looking at his hands. Finally he spoke up, "Ya know, you never answered my question."
"What question?" Not about my past.. please not about my past...
"Who were you in California?" He shifted his body towards me, waiting for a response.
"That's none of your business. Get me outta here." I didn't want to respond.
He narrowed his eyes. "Will you tell me later?"
"Maybe." Maybe  should tell him. It'd be easier to tell him now than three years from now, if I'm still alive.
As we walked inside I immediately heard yelling. Steve was trying to take cake from Soda. It was kinda fun watching them wrestle while balancing a plate full of cake.
"Hey girls. Calm your tits. You can just split it." Dallas said while he set me down.
"NO WAY!! It's mine" Steve growled. Soda cursed at him. Dal walked over and took the cake away real easily. He shoved it in his face and sat on the sofa.
"AWE DAL C'MON!!! I WANTED SOME!" Steve yelled. He really seemed to like chocolate cake. Soda grunted and left to the kitchen. I saw reach into the fridge and pull out a small slice. Steve must have not seen it. He ate it real quick and gave me the sign to keep my mouth shut. Soda was real sneaky when it came to it.
"What took y'all so long?" Asked Soda.
"Ky made me stop the fight cuz Sylvia pulled a knife so we had to take the other girl to the hospital." Dal explained quickly.
"Sylvia? She was fighting? Who was it this time?"
"Some chick named Alex, never seen her before. She was pretty cute." I tensed up as Dallas said that. He thought she was cute. What does it matter. Dallas is nothing to me.
"The one with the twin?" Steve joined.
"Yeah. His name is Adam, he's pretty cute too." I saw Dallas look at me funny from the corner of my eye.
"Aren't you and Soda a thing though?" Steve asked.
"EWW WHAT THE HELL STEVE SHE'S MY COUSIN!!" Soda punched his arm.
"What!?!? She is??" His eyes widened real big. "So that means you're single then?" He winked and grabbed my hand. Steve was pretty nice but real mean to Pony, I didn't like that.
"Ha. Get off me." I pushed his hand away. He narrowed his eyes and flipped me off.
"Well. Imma go find Two somewhere. Bye." He walked out and I looked over at Dally who looked more tense than usual.
"What time do Johnny and Pony get outta hell, I mean School." I asked.
Soda smiled at me and tossed me and Dally a Coca-Cola.
"Two thirty. It's noon right now, not much longer." Sods respondes.
"Man it sucks not being able to walk. I cant do anything."
Dallas passed out before he could open his Soda. I drank mine and said "I'm gonna go to sleep. I'm kinda tired." I pulled my legs up and fell asleep next to Dallas.
