Nothin' Legal>< Dallas Winston Love Story>< CHAPTER TWO

"So, who's the new man, eh?"
"Who is it, Bree?"
"C'mon, spillaaaat!"
"Will you all SHUT UP?"
We were walking to the Dingo, Sodapop, Two-Bit, Steve and I, going to meet Darry, Ponyboy and Dallas, and somehow the guys had figured out that I was...liking someone. I don't know how. Dallas might have been boasting, and they might have caught on. I have no clue. Now they were trying to get me to spill.
"C'mon Bree, we're you buddies!" Two-Bit pleaded mockingly.
"Ya can trust us, girly!" Steve jabbered, in his ultra-hick voice.
I laughed and grabbed Soda by the collar, jerking him towards me and whipping my switch out of my back pocket. "Anyone ask again, and dear ol' Sodapop gets the metal." I teased. Two-Bit kicked me in the butt, and I let go of Soda's shirt.
We turned the corner and arrived at the Dingo, shoved open the door and strolled inside. We didn;t feel weird here, The Dingo was greaser turf. Two-Bit spotted Darry and Pony, and Dally was right behind 'em. We went to meet them, grabbed a table. A couple minutes later Johnny came in and joined us.
Dally and I sat opposite each other, and I could see he was remembering under the streetlight last night. I was too. His expression didn't change a bit, but I knew he was. Johnny scooched in beside Dal, Ponyboy next to Johnny, Soda next to Ponyboy. Two-Bit, Steve and Darry piled into the booth seat next to me.
A big greaseball waiter hobbles over. "Orda?"
"Beer." Two-Bit got his regular...
"Beer, please." Darry was getting a beer? He hardly ever drank.
"Coke." Ponyboys favourite.
"Coke, please." Johnny's too.
"Chocolate milk, if ya have it?" Aha. Sodapop loved chocolate milk.
"7-Up." Steve and I said unanimously.
"And I will have a Coca-Cola, mister." Dally said, pretending to sound buffed up.
After the greasy waiter left, Ponyboy turned to me. "Do you REALLY have a boyfriend?" he asked curiously.
I sighed. "Where do you people learn these things?"
"Dally told us." Ponyboy said, his eyes were wide with innocence.
My eyes went wide with surprise. I glared at Dallas Winston. He glared back, but his eyes were dancing. I don't know why, I just broke out laughing.
"Whats so funny?" Johnny asked.
"Dallas told you I had a boyfriend, but he didn't tell you who it WAS??"
"...yeah..." Johnny said, he was obviously confused.
"Well I guess he's ashamed or embarrassed that I'm going with none other that DALLAS WINSTON HIMSELF!" I hooted. Dally glared at me evilly and slouched down in his seat.
Everyone stared. First at me, then Dal, that me again, then Dal again. It was a scene out of the perfect cartoon. Two-Bit broke the silence: "DALLY?" He exclaimed, and started laughingas hard as me. That got everyone else started, and they kept on until Dally reached over the table and whapped Two-Bit sharply upside the head. I stood up and slid out of the booth.
"Screw my drink, if you guys are gonna be so stupid 'bout this whole thing, I'm leavin'."
Dallas got up too. "Yeah, man. Me too."
Steve snickered. "Ooooo."
I grabbed a spoon from a nearby table and threw it at him. Then I turned tail and strolled briskly out the door.
A second later I heard the door slam behind me. Dallas grabbed the collar of my shirt and pulled me back to him. "Why'd ya say that, ya little punk?" He said.
"You told about me, tough guy, so I told about you. Squares off." I said, wrenched free and kept walking.
"So, you mad at me now." Dally called after me.
I whirled around to face him. "No. You seem pretty pissed at me though. Therefore, I'm leavin' before you get too steamed."
He walked up to me. "I ain't mad at ya, Bree. Just kinda... I dunno, embarassed."
"You're EMBARASSED to be with me?"
He scowled. "Tch, nah, just came out of the blue. Didn't expect it, man."
I smirked evilly. "Then say it."
"Say what?"
"You know."
"I don't, ya little-"
"Say 'I love you'."
"What?"
"Say it!" I was snickering.
"Man, that's soft."
I was laughing harder now. "Say it, Dally-boy."
"Why?"
"Why not, if I'm 'tuff enough'?"
"Damnit, Bree..."
"Ha. Sucker."
"DAMN!" He sort of yelled, then grabbed my head and shoved his mouth onto mine. His hand relaxed on the back of my neck and he just seemed to calm down altogether. He pulled away a minute or two later. "That good enough for ya?"
I turned red and laughed. "Yep!"
He cracked a smile for once. "C'mon, man. Let's blow this place." He slung his arm lazily across my shoulders and we walked on, heading and going nowhere.

I didn't feel like going home, Dad was working anyways, so I;d be alone just as much. So I fell asleep in the lot, on a patch of grass that sprouted from the chalky ground. I woke up early in the morning, real early, but I couldn't tell it was light at first, because someones head was blocking the light.
"Move yer big ol' head, Dallas."
"Psh." He stepped out of the way and plunked down beside me.
I groaned and pulled myself to a sit. "What time is it."
"I dunno, do I look like a clock? It's gotta be early, man, sun's barely up." He had a cigarette in his mouth. I pulled my own from my pocket and lit up.
"Y'know, ain't to many chicks out there that smoke, man." He flicked the ashes off the end of his cig. "Ain't to many..."
I coughed and took another drag. "We going anywhere today? Anythin' planned?"
"I dunno. Plannin' on just roamin' the streets, nothin' special. Maybe sneak the Nightly Double."
"Mhm." I finally decided to wake up completely and look at my watch. 7:30. "Shoot, Dal, you said it was early."
"It is, ain't it?"
"Nah. Seven-thirty. That ain't early."
"Is too, man. Early for me."
I yawned and stretched. "Whatcha doing in the lot so early then? I thought you were a late riser."
"I figured ya would be here, thought I would keep ya company."
I snickered and stared at him. "Since when are you good company?"
"I dunno."
"Wow. Enthusiastic."
"Hey, man. Don't get wise."
"Shut up."
"Wha'd you say?"
"I said, shut up, Dallas."
"And why should I?"
"Because."
"Hmm?"
I laughed and leaned over and kissed him, just like that. His eyes went wide for a minute, then he smirked. "That's why, eh?"
I snickered. "Yeah. That."
