After an hour of making out with Dallas Winston, I walked around campus. Also trying to come up with my own rumors. Is it bad to start rumors? Not fake rumors but real ones. Just exposing people out there won't be bad. I mean, they don't have to get it from me. They won't know it's from me. I laughed evilly at the thought.

Nah, I'm too much of a nice person. Plus, it's too much work. I'm not those creepy stalkers like Joel. I don't know if he stalks people for rumors or makes them up but either way he's messed up in the head. It makes me wonder if the principal is paying attention to what he's doing.

A couple of people left the school because of it. Because they were pussys! They are too scared! I'm not...
Actually you know what's strange, I haven't seen Joel in a long time. Maybe he's with the principal or something or helping out other people.

It was getting windy outside. Sometimes things would get on my face. Since it was pissing me off, I headed inside the library. Ahh, the library. I looked around and my nerdy self took over and walked over to the books.

I picked up a book from a shelf and checked the back for a summary. It was about a boy named Blake Pacheco. He was 14 years old. I kept reading until I knew it was basically about love. I was interested. I mean, I wasn't too interested in romance books but I could give this a go since he was my age, maybe his thoughts would be the same with mine.

I checked it out to the front counter and I had to return it Sunday or I have to start paying. If I never return it and I graduate I.. can't graduate until I return it or pay but anyways I'm broke and can't pay for shit. I only wanna buy two things with my money. A root beer and..... never mind one thing and I'm only using my money for root beer.

I held the book. I was able to check out up to 6 or more books but one book is totally fine.

Dally's POV

I sat on my bed. Back of my head against the wall. I was playing with my gun, pretending to shoot things. I almost died like two months ago so I practiced my aim. How am I supposed to practice my aim if I'm not literally shooting. I'm not gonna shoot here though.. you know what forget it. I put my gun away and sighed as a got up.

What if I get expelled from this school? Where would I go? I'm totally not telling my dad. He'll hurt me or something. I'm scared of him. He already threatened me with a fucking knife! Knives are scary as hell. Like needles, god, I hate needles.

I made my way to get a drink at a water fountain. There wasn't any in the dorms so I went outside. Usually I had a coke with me at all times but someone stole mine last class. Fucking prickk.

When I walked outside it was getting cloudy. So it was about to rain. I walked to the nearest water fountain. Drank some water like a normal person because I'm normal.
"Hey faggot." I heard from behind and turned around. "What? Who are you calling fag? You talk like your gay and wearing the same shit everyday isn't really nice." I spat. But for real, he wears the same thing everyday but I never really knew who he really is.

He laughs. Who the fuck is this guy? "I know the reason you got shot because you're gay. You deserved to die." He said.

That hit me. I didn't know what to say at first. "I'm not gay. All the rumors are fake." I wanted to pull my gun out but I forgot I just put it away in my room somewhere. Damn. "Joel took pictures of y'all making out in your room." The taller guy says. I tried calming down. "With who? That queer boy Ponyboy? No way." I told him and I immediately regret what I just said. "Let me see the pictures."

He hands me the pictures. I look at it and gasp a little. "It's photoshop you can clearly see." I said as I rip them in pieces. "Don't get mad at me for ripping them. They're fake anyway."

He gritted his teeth but he relaxed. "So wait, you don't like Ponyboy? Are you guys not friends." He asks. I shook my head. "Um I'm just his bodyguard he's paying me or something to protect him." I lied. I hated myself for this so much. Oh my god what am I saying? He's gonna hate me if he knows what I just slipped out of my mouth.

He walks away. Probably planning on telling everyone I don't like Ponyboy or something similar now.

I see Ponyboy walking in the distance. He notices me and walks closer and I bit my lip. "Hey Dally." He smiles. I smile back. "What's this?" I point at the books in his arms. Well, I was going to buy one book but I thought about it and got 7 more." He tells me. I nod. "That's totally something you would do." I said. He laughs at that.

"Did anybody come up to you about the rumor yet? I mean it's almost lunch so you can tell everyone." He asked. I shook my head. "Nah not yet but have you heard any more rumors?" I throw a question at him back. "No, not yet but I don't care about rumors. Wait I have a question. Should we spread rumors about others?" He looks at me. "No way. You know, this school is fucking us up I want to leave." I said.

"Yeah. I don't like it here either but I don't want to leave because this is the only school I'm staying at because Darry clearly doesn't want to see me anymore." Pony says.
