67|"Alright Here We Go, Ready?"

<Chris's POV>

We all sit down around the large table as the waiter passes out our menus. We all scoot our chairs in and get comfortable and the sisters supply us with two high chairs for he babies. The dark wood table is circular and we somehow manage to cram around it. The order around the table is Dallas, Skyler, Steve, Lena, me, Soda, Darry, Leala, Pony, Johnny, and Two-Bit.

Dallas looks around uncomfortably. He stops the worker before he can walk away. "What do you have on tap? Scratch that just give me your strongest," Dallas says while handing the waiter cash.

"Right away sir," the waiter assures as he tucks the money into his pocket. I see Dallas wipe sweat from his brow. He notices all of us staring at him and he smirks. "How posh is this?" He asks lightening the mood. Skyler rolls her eyes.

"Shit, I need vodka," Skyler says as she pinches the bridge of her nose and shakes her head. Steve elbows her. She looks up surprised. Her eyes widen. Steve gives her a look. "Fuck is that not normal. Shit, Darry I'm no good at this acting normal thing," Skyler says looking sadly at Darry who just smiles.

"You and me both honey," Dallas claims while taking a huge gulp out of the glass the sister just set down. He cringes and slams the glass on the table. "What the fuck is in there." Skyler's eyes brighten.

"Oh let me try and see!" She says happily, stretching her hand out like a child reaching for candy. Steve grabs the glass and Dallas grasps Skyler's prying hands. Skyler pours and groans. "Ugh just a sip, please," Skyler begs.

"Skyler picture this," Pony starts with Johnny smirking beside him, "you're twins come out after you had even just a sip of alcohol during the pregnancy and both or one of them has an FASD which leads to problems developing the brain, heart, and other stuff that you wouldn't understand. Or you could go into labor just to find out only one or none survived because of the alcohol, so ask yourself, is it worth it?" Pony explains all of this with and then a sly smirk spreads across his face. Skyler's eyebrows are furrowed and we all just get a bit quiet. We all wait for her reaction. Her arm shoots straight up and her fingers snap.

"Waiter, I'm gonna need some water and lemons!" Skyler demands. Two-Bit cocks an eyebrow.

"Lemons?"

"I need to squirt the juice into Pony's eyes for putting that picture in my head," she says ruefully as Pony continues to smirk. Skyler scoffs at his cocky smile. "Oh quit it Harvard boy." I bite my lip and look to Leala who is having fun just watching us as Darry has all these years. His arm is draped over her shoulder and her hair twists around the fabric of his flannel.

"So anyways, this dinner is about you, so Leala, what are your likes, dislikes, weird fetiches?" I ask as I lean my chin into the palm of my hand with my elbow supporting my weight in the table. She smiles.

"There isn't much to explain. And by the way whatever Darry told you just forget about it, don't try to act normal, I enjoy watching people screw around," Leala says with a smirk. Skyler lest out a long sigh and Dallas pulls her to him as the couple share a look of relief.

"Oh thank Jesus," Dallas exclaims.

"So what are all of your histories?" Leala asks. I don't really know why, but for some reason we all glance at Skyler. She does have the richest history. She looks at us innocently from drinking her water. A small slurping sound comes from the glass before she places it down on the table. Her eyebrows furrow.

"What?"

"I think that means we want you to talk," Lena whisper to Skyler over Steve. Skyler looks around at all of us staring at her. When I smirk at her she rolls her eyes.

"Alright here we go ready?" Skyler asks Leala who nods excitedly. Skyler takes a deep breath and Dallas rubs her back in support. "I'm nineteen, life is okay, parents die in car crash, drugs, heroine, lots and lots of cutting, knives, blades, glass. Friends desert me cause I'm a wreck. I want to escape so I run to Tulsa. Get beat up by Socs while living in abandoned house. Saved by my hubby over here. More longing to drink, get dirty with hot bad boy, meet gang, date hubby for the sake of his baby sister, things go wrong, fights, cutting, I get raped in the process, and then lots and lots of sex." I smirk at the mention of me wanting the two to be together almost two years ago. Dallas smiles at all the mentioning of him as 'hubby' and lots of sex. "Unexpected pregnancy, friends going into the military, more cutting, run away, three months later I come back, miscarriage of one of the twins, have Tibby, happy happy, hubby gets mean, I leave him with the baby, then lots and lots of heroine, using a stranger for sex, Darry helps me get better. I go back to hubby, happy happy, pregnant again yay, then boom lung cancer, not enough money. Yay hubby asks me to be his life partner. A few months later bring Johnny into my home with hubby. Loose Johnny, go to find Johnny. Die for a total of one minute, revived, cancer gone, and here we are," Skyler says and then takes a deep breath. If someone wrote a book about us they should explain it the way Skyler did. Why dramatics all of it when you could just say it bluntly? Seriously, why waste your time with chapters and chapters of fluffy drama when you can just use one or two words a sentence. Dallas puts one hand on Skyler's shoulder and the other on her pregnant belly. Leala looks at Skyler in complete shock.

"Well your life is a lot more interesting than mine," she says while still in shock. For a second we are all silent until Dallas's smirk turns into a surprised and almost scared face.

"Skyler what the fuck was that?" He asks as he whips his hand away from her belly. We all turn our attention once again to the couple. Skyler looks down at her belly worried.

"What?" She asks terrified.

"Something hit my hand from your stomach," Dallas says scared. I put my hand to my mouth to muffle my laugh. Soon I can't contain it and I tuck my head into Soda's shirt and practically roar like a dinosaur with laughter. Soda rubs my back with a smirk. "What's so funny?" Skyler rolls her eyes.

"Dallas that's one of the baby's foot you idiot," she says annoyed. Dallas places a hand over his heart and lets out a breath of relief.

"Jesus, that's fucking weird," Dallas says. I start to cackle from laughing so hard and my brother glares at me. Skyler face palms and shakes her head. Once we all stop laughing a bit Skyler diverts the attention back to Leala.

"Leala, you ever plan on having kids?" She asks while taking a sip of her water. Leala opens her mouth a bit and her shoulders slump. I don't think Darry notices. She shakes her head and swallows harshly.

"Maybe," she says disdainfully. When it gets quiet I look to one of the people I know can start a party.

"Steven," I say will looking at my best friend. He turns his head angrily at me. Just as I hated when I was younger, Steve still hates to be called by his full name. The same with Two-Bit.

"Yes Christina," he hisses. I squeeze my eyes into a squint.

"Bet you can't drink five tequila slammers in a minute."
