I've been avoiding the guys for about two weeks now, and whenever I would pass them I could tell they felt guilty. I guess I'll stop by the house to see how my brothers are doing, I do miss them. The rest of the gang needs to earn a bit of respect back.

I've been spending more time with Marcus lately, and we agreed to keep this thing a secret from them because I know how much they despise him now after the incident.

I've also been writing more ideas for songs. So far I only have one favorite, a love song that I made. I'm not in love with anybody, I just like putting myself in a different situation, it's almost like playing a character.

"What's up, buttercup?" Marcus walked into my house and grabbed frozen blueberries from the ice box.

"Nothing much. Gonna go see my brothers today." I sighed.

"Oh, count me out."

I chuckled as he walked into my cinema room.

"Have fun!" He yelled as I looked down at my newspaper.

Setting it down, I walked over to my full-body mirror. I must say, I know how to dress expensive when I want to.

I wore my hair in curls, like almost always. I had on a black suede dress that cost me nearly a thousand dollars. Pricey, but worth it. My red bottom heels complimented the outfit perfectly, and made me at least 5'5". I had on all natural makeup, with light pink lipstick. I had on a diamond encrusted necklace that shined in any light, and a leather watch that cost a fortune. It looks cute though.

I grabbed my black leather purse and headed out to my Corvette. It was a nice shiny black, and it ran perfectly.

I pulled up to the Curtis household. I think they're there, hopefully it's just my brothers.

Stepping up to the porch, I remembered that you don't have to knock to enter. So I just walked in. I was faced with six boys. Oh, and Darry. If he even counts as a boy, which I doubt because he's like 20.

"Where've you been?" Darry asked loudly and frantically, showing obvious worry.

"Uh, my house." I sassed, stating the obvious.

"I just came to check up on my favorite brothers in the world." I smiled brightly, then looked at the rest of them, "Oh, you guys."

"Look we're sorry, alright." Steve said, following me into the kitchen.

I just ignored him and grabbed some grapes.

"Darry, I didn't know grapes were in season." I said, sitting on the dining room table.

"Why are you dressed so fancy? You goin' to a Soc party?" Two commented, making them all look me over.

"Yeah, it's like you've been dressing fancier since you came back." Johnny said.

"Well, maybe I like this style. I can be expensive if I want to." I smiled at Johnny.

Getting up, I sat next to him and wrapped my arm around his shoulder, leaning my head against his. The gang was silent, which made me wonder why- they're usually rowdy.

"Why so serious, folks?" I smirked.

"We're trying to say sorry to you but you keep ignoring us." Steve said, annoyed.

"Well, maybe it's because I'd like a real apology." I sneered, squinting my eyes at him.

"Fine. Liz, we're real sorry we said those things to you. It's just; we never really had you around much after you left to do concerts and stuff. I guess we were just annoyed that you left like that." Two-Bit said sincerely, half-smiling.
