Two-Bit walked me to the Curtis' house. We walked in the door, I saw a muscular one in the kitchen whom I'm assuming is Darry, a movie star looking one sitting on the couch with Ponyboy, a mean looking one, and a Greaser talking with Darry from the living room.

"Hey Two-Bit!"

"Hey, Soda! We got ourselves a new recruit!"

"Darry!" Soda shouted.

Darry walked to us.

"Hey, you must be Jackie! My name's Darry and this is Sodapop and Steve and Dally."

"Nice to meet you guys."

I shook all of their hands happily.

"Dinner's almost ready. Just a few more minutes," Darry said.

I sat on the left end of the couch in between Two-Bit sitting on the floor and Dally sitting by me on the couch. He looked at me.

"Hey," Dally said.

He smirked at me.

"I know what you're thinking, don't," I said.

Dally put his hands up apologetically. I nodded.

Two-Bit was right, Dally's a flirt.

"Dally, if you just wanna talk that's ok."

"Oh I'd be delighted," Dally replied sarcastically.

I smiled in amusement.

"Two-Bit told me you're from New York."

"Yup."

"What's it like?"

"Uh, it can be dangerous but if you want the positive stuff, it's average city life."

I nodded.

"Mom always wanted to go to New York."

"Really?"

"Yep."

Me and Dally kept talking about New York until Darry called us for dinner.

"Dinner's ready! Grab it n growl!"

(A/N: My mom says "Grab it n growl" sometimes. :))

Dinner was delicious! We all hung out until it was twenty til seven.
