"dal, you told me you'd quit smoking."

"don't worry about it doll."

after a tragic church fire rescue in windrixville, arabella (bella) is left weak, forbidden from smoking, and with a broken heart. her mental health went into a downward spiral for which negative thoughts constantly flooded her mind and leaves her feeling worthless. she thought of herself as a rose, and in which her petals were slowly withering away.

all she wanted was for someone to come in her life and fix it all. she longed for someone to call her own, someone she can count on, someone to make her feel like she's worth something. soon, she develops a far from ideal love interest that could either water her wilting rose, or pick the petals off one by one.

Sodapop Curtis has been playing it safe ever since his parents passed away so that he didn't get into any trouble and end up on his big brothers bad side. But playing it safe also meant his options for fun were extremely limited. Sandy had cheated on him now, gone and broke his heart, and he was ready to let loose for a night. Dallas Winston showed up unannounced later that day and Sodapop made a split second decision that no one would be more entertaining than good old Dally. Steve had Evie coming over for the night, Darry never went out anymore, Ponyboy had a heap of homework, Johnny was too timid to be much fun alone, and Two-bit was already six bottles into a case of beer. Wild and reckless Dally was Soda's only real option for any fun. But when a night on the town turns sour and Sodapop lands himself in the hands of the police for the very first time, what will Dallas do? A dallypop (Dallas x Soda) story.
