Note to Readers: Yes, this is in relation to the famous Elvis song.  He was popular in the 60's, but not many fanfics mention it, so I figured I should do one. 

        Pony grabbed the now empty plate that had once had chocolate cake on it, Two-Bit was busy cramming the last piece into his mouth as he watched T.V. with Johnny and Dally.  Soda, Steve, and Darry had left for work fifteen minutes ago, and Tara was in the kitchen doing the dishes that Pony and Two-Bit were supposed to be doing.

        The radio was on, and Pony could hear Tara singing along to Devil In Disguise.  He'd never noticed it before, but she was a good singer.  Her voice was in harmony to Elvis's on the radio, loud enough to be heard over the splashing of water and clinking of dishes in the sink.

        "....Heaven help me, I didn't see the devil in your eyes......" she sang, and Pony smiled to himself, thinking of her icy blue eyes that matched Dally's, hard and cold.

        He liked this song, it described Tara perfectly.  She was a devil in disguise, but almost in a good way.  She was tough and pretty at the same time, looked nice enough but had the same I-don't-need-anyone attitude as her brother.  That's why Pony liked her so much, there was almost always two sides to everything she did.

        He put the plate in the sink full of dishwater, splashing Tara in the face with water.  She froze for a second and then splashed water back at Pony, soaking the front of his shirt.

        "Hey!" Pony shouted, surprised.  It was an accident when he splashed her, but then of course Tara had to get revenge and splashed him back.  That was exactly what he meant by there being two sides to her, she was being an angel, sort of, by doing the dishes, and then the exact opposite by splashing him.

        Tara grinned evilly at him, and then returned to washing dishes and Pony started drying them.  She sang along quietly as the song ended.

        ".......devil in disguise, oh yes you are, you're the devil in disguise...."

        Oh yes you are, Pony thought to himself, almost saying it out loud to Tara.
