Rose's POV

I walked into the party with my older sister Caroline. I felt out of place. This isn't normally the party I would go to especially since greasers are here. I really don't understand why us Socs hate the greasers. They seem normal and just like regular people, maybe they are less wealthy and are dirtier than us but they are humans like us.

I looked around and Caroline was nowhere in sight. I remember her saying in the car stay close to her but it didn't turn out so well.

I walked around to try to find Caroline. It shouldn't be that hard but the house was huge not to mention there are so many people here. The house has high ceilings, beige walls and paintings all around. Which kind of parents would let their kid have a party in here?

"Hey baby want a drink?" some guy slurred.

I turned around and saw Jack from my biology class. He was always a creep. He would always flirt with me even though he knew I was dating Archie and he could kick his ass.

"Jack why don't you just leave me alone?" I asked as kind as I could possibly be.

"Just one drink?" asked Jack with pouty eyes.

Jack was quite a looker though I had to admit. He has blond hair almost white with sparkling blue eyes. He was my height, which isn't that tall considering I'm 5'5. I would have gone out with him but since he is a class below us my parents would never let me date him.

"I don't know, I promised Caroline I wouldn't even look at beer." I said.

"Just one sip? Come on Rose, live a little." said Jack.

Well it is only one little drink. It's not like I'm going to get drunk.

"Um, okay." I smiled.

"Perfect. Follow me." said Jack then walked to the bartender.

I followed behind him getting pushed on the way there. There were so many people.

"Get the little lady a beer." said Jack.

The bartender nodded then went to get my beer.

"Where's your boyfriend?" asked Jack while scratching on the back of his neck.

"He couldn't make it." I lied.

If I told him the truth that he didn't want me coming he would look overprotective which he already is but Archie is a real sweet guy. He's also quite a looker and my parents love him, like love him. They were once talking to his parents about us getting married.

"Oh well that's too bad." said Jack sounding a little happier than he should've sounded.

The bartender came with the beer surprisingly not asking for my age. Since I'm only 15 I shouldn't be drinking this but oh well, live a little Rose.

"Come on drink it." said Jack.

I took a sniff of it. It smelled really bad, why do people drink this? I put it close to my lips then took a little sip. The beer burned my throat as I drank it. This taste like crap.

Jack laughed at the expression of my face. "Don't like it huh?"

I shook my head no.

"It's okay not a lot of people do they just drink it to look cool." said Jack.

I smiled.

"What the hell are you drinking?" I recognize that voice.

I turned around and saw my sister Caroline looking pretty mad at me. Her green eyes looked cold and wild. I've never ever seen my sister so mad.

"Just a beer. This was my first one and I barely had a sip." I said.

"I don't care. Put that down." said my sister through her clenched teeth.

I instantly put it on the table.

"Come on Caroline, she was living a little." slurred Jack.

"Excuse me whatever your name is, you don't get involved in family business especially when you're tipsy." said Caroline.

"Dumb broad." muttered Jack.

I knew Caroline heard it but she was just too angry to care. She grabbed me from arm and yanked me away from Jack. When we were far away she turned around a glared at me.

"What do you think you're doing with him?" asked Caroline.

"I was just talking to him." I said.

"No, he was trying to go all the way with you." said Caroline.

"Huh?" I gave her a confused rolled her eyes in annoyance. "He was trying to have sex with you."

"No he wasn't."

What is she talking about? Boys always went after Caroline. She was the pretty one. Her blond hair was so perfect and straight. She has amazing green eyes.

Caroline gave me a sweet smile. "Yes he was. Trust me I know when a guy is flirting. He was defiantly in to you. Rose, give yourself some credit, you're a real pretty girl."

I smiled. I was going to say something but we heard some cheers going on. We walked over to be some people were crowding around a corner of the room. Two girls were fighting. One was a Soc that went to our school. I think her name was Sarah. The other I couldn't really see since she was the one who was winning the fight. She had Sarah and the ground and was punching her. I did see though she had blond hair with black tips. Her leather jackets had a rip in the back and so did the back of her jeans. Soon some kids pick the girl up and pulled her back. She was really pretty. A little too much make-up but other than that she was pretty. She had an old t-shirt on with ripped jeans. Sarah walked away with her friends.

"Bloody greasers." said Caroline under her breath.

The greaser girl shrugged the boys off then walked past me.

"Dumb socs who think there all better than us." I heard her whisper.

She walked to the door then walked out and slammed in shut.

"Who was that?" I asked.

"Some greaser chick." answered Caroline..

"What happened?" I asked.

"That greaser probably asked for it." said Caroline.

I love Caroline with all my heart but she has this hatred for the greasers that I don't understand. I knew she hates them but lately it's been more then usual.

"Caroline why do you hate the greasers so much?" I asked.

Caroline sighed. "Rose it's a long story."

"Come on tell me." I pleaded.

"It's not a conversation for a party. I'll tell you tomorrow." said Caroline.

"Fine." I said.

"Look Marcia and Cherry are over there." said Caroline.

"Do we have to talk to them?" I asked.

"If you don't want to we don't have to." said Caroline.

Cherry and Marcia are really nice girls but I don't really get along with them. They talk about all these classy stuff while I just sit there and listen plus I don't think Marcia even likes me. I think they only talk to me because I'm Caroline's little sister.

"I really don't want to." I said truthfully.

Caroline smiled. "Okay, why don't we go and get a drink?"

"Sure." I said.

Caroline and I were about to walk away until some guy came over and wrapped his arm around Caroline's waist.

Dally's POV

"What about her?" I asked Soda pointing to some random broad.

"Naw too greasy." said Soda.

"Soda, I've been pointing to thousands of broads and they are all hot." I said in frustration.

"I know Dally but there not the girls I want." said Soda.

"Soda, Sandy dumped you, she's a dumb broad move on." I said.

"Dally, it's not easy for Soda. They've dated for two years." said Steve.

"Whatever." I muttered.

Soda should just relax and go after those girls. They would be willingly to sleep with him. That Sandy girl is a bitch. She had a perfectly good guy in front of her, she is so lucky I don't hit girls.

"Hey guys I'm going to see a movie." said Ponyboy.

"Sure you don't want to stay?" asked Two-bit.

"Naw, have fun without me." said Pony.

"Oh we won't." I said. "This party is bullshit."

It really was. The music was terrible and the house was just a show off. Buck's party is ten times better.

"Come Dallas, it's not that bad." said Steve.

"Not that bad? The music is crappier than my life and the house is just a show off." I said. Some of the girls who were walking past heard me and glanced at me, I gave them a glare then they ran off.

"Well, I'm heading to go see 'Gone With the Wind' bye guys." said Pony then walked off.

'Gone With the Wind' reminds me of Johnny. Oh how I missed him. I hate going into that hospital and seeing Johnny's lifeless body. It's been two weeks since the docs told us he was in a coma.

"I'm going to get a drink. Want one Steve?" asked Two-bit.

"Yeup." said Steve getting out of his chair. "You coming Dal?"

"Naw, I'm gonna have a weed." I said.

They nodded and left. I took out cigarette and lit it up.

"What about her?" I pointed to some red head.

"Naw, too skanky." said Soda.

I blew out a puff of smoke. "What about that chick over there?"

"Naw, too high maintenance." said Soda.

"You don't even know her." I cried out.

"I know Dal but I can't help but think about Sandy." said Soda.

I groaned. I looked around trying to find a decent girl for Soda. I thought this would be easier but no one girl is too socy or too greasy. The other one is too skanky or too preppy. This is why I get a girl every night. I don't care if there a greaser or a Soc I'm getting them. I kept on looking. I had a mission to find a chick for Soda tonight. Then I spotted this blond girl. Her silky hair was in high ponytail and was wearing a plaid skirt that reached to her knees. I saw her talking to some brunette who was probably her friend. I couldn't get over of how hot she is.

"What about the brunette with the blond over there?" I asked Soda.

"Her?" pointed Soda.

"Yeah." I said.

"Isn't she a soc?" asked Soda.

"What's your point?" I asked.

"I don't know Dally, she would never go for a greaser like me. She's pretty though" said Soda.

"Soda, she would be crazy not too." I said. "Plus the blond one is pretty smoking hot."

Soda smiled. "Oh I see it, you want the blond one."

I smirked. "Yup."

Soda got up. "Come on, let's go get them."

"Screw Sandy."

Soda smiled and we both walked to the socy girls.

"Hello ladies." I said while putting my hand around the blond girl's waist.

"Hi." said the brunette.

"I'm Sodapop and this is my friend Dallas Winston." said Soda.

I felt the blond girl wince when she heard Soda say my name. Must've heard my rep.

"I'm Rose." said the brunette.

"What's your name sweetheart?" I whispered in her ear.

"None of your business hood." snapped the blond.

Rose gasped. "Caroline, you don't talk like that."

Oh so her name is Caroline. Cute name.

"Rose, to him I'm allowed to talk to him like that." said Caroline.

"Babe that hurts." I said pretending to be hurt.

Caroline rolled her eyes.

"So Rose how old you are?" asked Soda.

"16."answered Rose smiling to him.

"Wow what are the odds. Soda is only 16." I said.

"Do you go to Preston High School?" asked Rose.

"I use too." said Soda.

"Oh why don't you go anymore?" asked Rose.

"I dropped-out." said Soda barely in a whisper.

"Oh." all Rose could manage to say.

I put my cigarette to my mouth and let out a puff of smoke. Caroline made a disgusted face when she saw the smoke. I then looked down her empty cup. Maybe if I have some alone time I could get to know her and hook-up.

"Soda, Rose why don't you guys go and get me and Caroline another drink." I suggested.

"Sure, what do you want a beer?" asked Soda.

"I don't want a drink." snapped again Caroline.

What's with this girl and snapping?

"She wants a Pepsi trust me." said Rose.

Soda nodded then took her hand and they walked together holding hands.

"So why are you so cranky? Why don't I help you relax a bit?" I asked while rubbing circles with my thumb on her waist.

"Get your dirty hand off of my hand." said Caroline then pushed my arm off.

I leaned against the wall and said "Whoa, girl calm down."

"Don't you dare tell me to calm down, greaser." snapped Caroline.

"Listen cupcake, I did nothing to you so why don't stop with the name calling?" I said while rage was building.

Caroline gave me a cold hard glare. "Dallas, I know your kind. I've heard everything you did. I know you've gone to jail like ten times in the past year. Why don't you stop pretending to be nice and tell me the real reason why you came here?"

It was way more than 10.

"You know you can call me Dally." I said.

I hate it when people called me Dallas. It sounds too professional plus my father use to call me Dallas a lot. I like Dally or Dal.

"Are you going to answer my question, Dallas?" asked Caroline.

"Well I came here because-"

I was cut off by Caroline's facial reaction. Her eyes went wide and she went pale.

"What?" I asked.

Caroline didn't say anything. I turned around and saw a Soc.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"I'm Caroline's boyfriend, James." said James with a cold glare, the glare wasn't meant for me but it was meant for Caroline.
