Julia's POV

I just moved to Tulsa from California. I'm a drop out so I have to find a job. I walked around town looking of a 'Help Wanted' sign. I finally found one at a gas station called the DX. I walked in and there were two boys goofing around at the counter. They didn't see me walk in.

"Excuse me." I said getting there attention. They stopped what they were doing and looked at me.

"Can we help you?" One boy asked me. His hair was in complicated swirls and his name tag said Steve.

"I'm here for the job."

"Oh that! Here's a resume. Just fill it out and we'll give it to the boss later today." The other boy said handing me my resume. His name tag said Sodapop. That's an odd but yet original name. I filled out the resume and handed it back.

"One of us will call you later to let you know if you got the job." Soda smiled.

"Thanks." I said waving and walking out.

Sodapop's POV

I smirked at that girl while she walked out.

"What are you thinkin?" Steve asked me.

"What's that girls name?" I asked him. I heard him going through the papers.

"Uh...Julia." He told me.

"I got an idea." I smirked.

"No. No, no, no, no. I ain't gonna help you kidnap her Soda!! I can't stand by it!" Steve yelled at me shocked.

"No you idiot." I hit him in the back of the head with a magazine. "I'm not gonna kidnap her!! I got a better idea."

Julia's POV

I waited by the phone the rest of the day. When I was finished eating supper the phone rang.

"I got it!" I yelled running to the phone.

"Hello." I said into the phone.

"Julia?"

"Yeah."

"Oh hey! This is Soda. From the DX."

"Hey Soda!"

"I just thought I'd let you know you got the job. Me and Steve will be training you. You'll just mainly work the counter, pump some gas here and there. When you get the hang of it your hours might get changed different from ours."

"Thank you Soda! When do I start?!"

"Tomorrow. If you want you can come over to my house tomorrow before we go to work so you can meet my gang. You'll see a lot of them at work."

"Ok thanks. Where do you live?"

"On North side Tulsa. Tell me where your house is and I'll tell you how to get to mine."

"Okay. I'm new here so I'll just describe my house and the houses around it."

"Ok." Soda said cheerfully. I looked outside and described the house next to mine and my house.

"Wait. If I'm thinkin right you live right next to my buddy Two-bit. Which is only a 5 second walk to mine."

"The Matthews?" I asked.

"Yeah! Have you met them yet?"

"I met Mrs. Matthews and her daughter. She said her son was out."
