Dally's P.O.V.

I walk into the DX with the gang to see Charlie begging for god knows what, she's even in tears, "please, I'm pregnant! Please, have a heart."

"I'm sorry ma'am," the guy speaks.

"Please, I need a job!" She cries sniffling a bit. "I'm pregnant! Please, for the baby. Please."

"Ma'am there are no opening and that final," the boss I guess informs her sternly walking away.

She sits down on a bar stool and sobs. Darry walks over to me noticing me starring, "go on. See how she is."

I shake my head, "she's married."

The whole gang gasps finding out what really happened then Two speaks up, "golly Dall, I'm sorry."

"Broad wasn't worth my time anyways," I sigh.

"She looks pregnant," Steve speaks loudly.

I shrug even though I know she is and I now it's my kid, "beats me."

"Well I'm going to say hi," Daisy announces.

Soda grabs her wrist lightly making sure he doesn't hurt her, "don't."

She turns around being the feisty girl she is, "and why's that?"

"It's your brother's ex," he states like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

"Well I guess if when we break up then you won't be friends with Dally anymore," she fires back. Ooo when.

"When!" Soda yells. "We're not even official and there's already a when!"

"C'mon Soda you know what I mean," she rolls her eyes.

"Do I?" He asks.

"Just let me go," she rips her arm our of her grasp turning to me. "Now Dallas if you don't talk to her I will."

"Fine," I huff walking over and sitting next to Charlie noticing she still has the ring on.

I tap her shoulder and she turns to me. "H-hi Dallas."

"Hey Charlotte," I smile as I wipe away her tears. "Don't cry baby."

She looks over to me and weakly smiles, "I miss you."

I pull her into a tight hug, "I missed you too. Wanna come sit with the gang? I still love you Charlie. I don't care if you're married. I love you!"

She presses her lips against mine when we pull away she looks into my eyes, "I love you too Dally."

Daisy's P.O.V.

I scoot next to Sodapop and smile as he grabs my hand. He leans down whispering into my ear, "lets ditch."

I cock my head to the side, "where?"

"Surprise," he smirks as he pulls me out of the booth.

We leave the Dingo and go to the lake with our feet in the water, "Soda you're so cute."

"It's 'cause," he stops taking a deep breath.

"Soda are you okay?" I ask nervously.

He smashes his lips into mine and as we break away he looks into my eyes, "Daisy I love you with all my heart, will you be my girl?"

"Love?" I fiddle with my thumbs nervously.

He runs his hand through his greasy hair, "gosh! I knew this was too soon. Why am so stupid?"

I stop him, "you're not stupid, but are you sure you love me?"

He nods his head, "I love you. I've always loved you. I just told myself I didn't. I lied to myself telling myself I love Sandy."

"Soda you sound crazy," I insist. "Lets go home."

"Do you love me?" He screams at me making me jump back in fear.

"Sodapop stop, you're scaring me," I inform me.

"How? How am I scaring you by telling you I love you? How is that scary?" He questions.

"Soda please," I beg.

He looks away taking a deep breath, "I'm sorry, but love can make you do stupid things and I love you. Do you love me?"

"Yea, I-I...I think I do," I smile smashing my lips against his.

He picks me up and spins me around, "we're in love!"

I beam down at him, "I'm in love. You're in love. God! We're in love...with each other!"

As he places me down he presses his lips against mine once again, "I love you Daisy."

"I love you too Sodapop," I giggle happily. "I love you Sodapop! I love you!"

Delilah's P.O.V.

I lean over to Steve bumping into him. He looks down at me and I point over to Evie, "what is she doing here?"

"How would I know, you're my girlfriend, not her?" He reminds me.

"Whatever," I scoff.

"Are we seriously gonna fight right now?" He rolls his eyes.

"I'll fight when ever I wanna fight and I wanna fight now!" I whisper-yell.

"Well I won't do what I don't wanna do and I don't wanna fight, so we're not gonna fight," he thinks he can tell me what to do.

"How 'bout you shut up?" I ask rolling my eyes.

"How 'bout no?" He sasses.

"I'll do what I want!" I yell loudly.

"How about you stop talking so loud," he puts his hand over my mouth.

"I DON'T CARE IF EVERYBODY HEARS! WORLD I'M HAVING A FIGHT WITH MY BOYFRIEND STEVE RANDLE!" I yell as loud as I can.

"Shut up!" Steve snaps.

"Stop telling me what to do!" I growl.

"You're just like Evie," he scoffs softly.

I look at him with disgust, "excuse me?"

"You're just like Evie," he replies louder.

"I hear my name," Evie pops us. "Hi Stevie, I've missed ya."

"Speak of the devil," I whisper to myself as she fake giggles.

I look over to Ponyboy then back at Steve, "I'm gonna go hang out with people who like me."

"Del! Del! Del! Delilah! Don't be like this!" He yells, but I just flip him off. "Oh, oh, oh, I got the finger. I got the finger."

I sit down next to Ponyboy and Johnny, "hey boys, I feel like I haven't talked to ya in forever."

"That's 'cause you haven't," Pony laughs. "Ya having a fight with Steve?"

"Yup," I sigh.

"What about and do you know where Soda and Daisy are?" Johnny question.

I shrug, "beats me and Evie is here. It's funny they fought over me and we fight over her."

"You don't think he'd cheat though," Pony reminds me.

"Right?" Johnny asks.

"I don't know, I don't think so at least," I look over to see Evie and Steve laughing. "I hope so."

"Don't worry kid," Two-bit slurrs walking over. "You always got me."

I shiver at the thought of dating Two-bit, "uh no thank you Keith."

"Hey!" He snaps. "It's Two-bit to you!

I roll my eyes, "whatever you say Two-butt. Now go to sleep."

"I'm gonna go pick up some broads," he stumbles out.

I turn to Darry, "we're gonna have to bail him out of the cooler later. Aren't we?"

"Most likely," Darry shakes his head. "You and Daisy are the only good ones. Well Daisy is always good, you not so much."

I smirk, "whatcha gonna do?"

Steve walks over to me, "you cooled down?"

"Depends," I speak coldly.

"On what?" He lets out a loud sigh.

"Why were you talking to her?" I ask her.

"She's my friend," he reminds me.

"She fucking cheated on you!" I yell a little too loud and everybody looks at us. "If that's what you want, I don't know what I'm even doing here because, we both know Evie is nothing I will ever be and nothing I want to be. So make your choice."

He puts his hands on my hips, "c'mon baby, you know who I want."

"Do I?" I roll my eyes.

"I only want you," he smiles as he pecks my lips.

"Awwww," we hear Charlie coo in the background.

I turn over to look at her, "I missed you Charlie."

"I missed you too Del," she walks over hugging me. "Now where is Daisy and Sodapop?"

"Here!" Daisy yells as she burst through the door holding Soda's hand and the whole gang laughs.

"Only Daisy," Pony whispers to us making us laugh.

I lean over whispering, "I got news for you, your brother is there too. Only Daisy and Sodapop."

He looks over to me smiling and laughing before he walks over to them, "what were you two weridos doing?"

Daisy looks over to Soda smirking, "Sodapop over here told me he loves me and of course I told him I love him too."

I look over to Steve and fake gag, "how lovey dovey and not us!"

Steve chuckles, "not us...at all."

I scoff, "at all."

"So if I told you I loved you right now?" He asks.

"I'd call you insane and tell you we just started dating," I reply honestly.

"I feel so loved," he jokes.

"Don't matter none, you don't love me," I shrug.

"Whatever," he rolls his eyes playfully.

Daisy's P.O.V.

I walk over to Charlie sitting next to her, "you moving back in?"

She looks over to me smiling, "c'mere kiddo."

I hug her tightly, "I missed you."

"I missed you too," she kisses the top of my head.

"Don't leave again," I speak into her chest. "Ever please."

"Promise," she smiles. "Dally and I were just having issues."

I look over to her, "is it true?"

"Is what true?" She asks.

"Are you really married?" I let out a loud sigh.

She sighs, "I can't believe you heard."

"Well is it?" I ask again.

"I love Dallas very much and it changes nothing," she insists.

"Can't you see that it changes everything?" I ask her tears in my eyes. "You practically lied to us."

"I never lied to you. I do love you and Del and Dally. I am a part of this family. Right here," she promises.

"But your married.," I cry. "I thought we were your world."

"You are my world. All three of you," she smiles sweetly. "I love you three more than anything in the world."

"How 'bout your husband? That's your family. I'm not," I sniffle knowing the truth.

She puts her finger under my chin making her look at me, "no he's not my family. I don't love him. I love Dallas. I'm gonna get married to him and have this kid which is his. This family, my family, our family, is gonna grow. What do you think?"

I look up at her smiling wiping the tears away, "I think I love it Charlie and I love you!"

She pulls into a long tight hug, "I love you too kiddo."

Seems to me Charlie is at the center of all the drama, but everything is back to normal...Thank god.
