"i am sorry ponyboy but we can't have a party at our house!" darry argued with ponyboy. this argument has been taking hours to talk about.

having a party seemed... tense. "please! this Saturday! when everyone leaves i'll make sure i clean everything up ok? just please darry?" pony pleaded.

"i'll help clean up too!" soda joined in. "i'll make sure no one goes in any bedroom!"

"see we have a volunteer!" pony cheered. "rubi what do you say about this?" darry looked at me. i don't want to have a party, but it's time for me to socialize and make new friends. "yeah, i volunteer for the party too." i said with a fake smile.

"hell yeah!" both pony and soda cheered. "fine, but this Saturday i'll be taking an extra shift, so when i come back i ain't going to see some boy hiding behind the couch ight?" darry asked.

"yes sir!" soda and pony saluted. soda, pony and i we're heading to the liquor store to get the snacks, and drinks for the party this Saturday which is in 2 days. "soda why are you buying alcoholic drinks?" pony asked. "well this party needs little bit of trouble. don't worry you can buy yourself a juice if you like." soda winked.

i started to laugh and so was soda. "you know what let's risk it!" pony exclaimed and went to the cashier. "you've been real quiet lately rubi." soda told me. "yeah real quiet, why is that?" pony said.

"wait what?" i asked. i am real quiet, and i don't know why. "sorry i just spaced out a bit." i said smiling.

~ Saturday ~

"two bit! can you put the beers in the cooler?" soda yelled.

"steve! stop sitting down and get the chips out!" pony yelled.

"where do i put em?" steve yelled.

"soda? how many coolers you'd get?" two bit yelled.

"bout 3 or 4." soda yelled.

later that afternoon the house was filled by lots of people. i was sitting on the front porch waiting for johnny. minutes went by and i assumed that he wouldn't be coming.

i went back inside to grab myself some beer bottles and sit on the couch. lots of people were dancing, laughing, drinking or either getting high. i opened one of my beers and started drinking.

"woah there! i've never seen you drink till now!" dally said sitting next to me as i rolled my eyes at him. "hey, pass me a bottle."
i passed him a bottle and continued to drink another one. "why are you starting to drink?" dally asked. "i'm drinking my feelings always that why." i said.

i then saw johnny. i wanted to go up to him and say hi but he was busy talking to another girl. "two bit drinks a lot... you'd think he's depressed or somethin'?" dally asked. "you know what i have no idea." i said chugging another beer bottle.

i had my 5th beer bottle and next thing i knew i was dancing with dally. my favorite song then came on and i started to laugh and jump. "hey!" dally yelled and grabbed me by the waist and sat me on the couch.

"you are real cute rubi." dally said. "you are too." i said laughing. "you know i'm bored, this party is just lame!"

"dally?" i asked. i didn't know what i was going to say, until i saw johnny he looked like he was having fun. my stupid feelings were going all over the place again. it made me so mad, not at johnny though, at myself!

i started to cry right in front of dally. "hey, what's wrong?" dally said. "i don't know!" i yelled. dally didn't know what to do by the expression on his face. i just put my head on dally's lap and tried to stop my feelings from going crazy.

i then sat up, and looked at dally. "i have no fucken idea what the hell is going on with me." i laughed. "neither do i!" dally exclaimed.

i then put my arms around dally's neck, he then grabbed my waist. our heads touched and so did our mouths. next thing i knew i woke up in my bed having no idea what happened on Saturday.
