"What..?!"
I say to some Soc girls that were whispering to each other as I was at my locker.
They flash me shocked looks and walk off.
Since I had been back at school everyone treated me like I was some zoo animal.
That if you messed with me enough I would escape and tear you apart.
"Hey."
I turn around and Susan looks at me with a half smile on her face.
"Hey.." I say awkwardly, because we hadn't talked since the party.
"How are you?"
She says gently.
"Susan..you don't have to baby me..everything's fine.."
I say looking up at her with firey eyes.
She gives me an uneasy look and then just nods slightly.
"Just wanted to see how you were.."
I felt bad and apologize.
"I'm sorry..I didn't mean to be like that..it's just since then everyone has been treating me differently..and it's really gotten pretty old.."
She puts her hand on my shoulder and smiles.
"Well screw them.. And how about we
go get a drink."
I grin widely and we head out the door.

"Hey babe.."
I turn around and see Dally with a wide smirk on his face.
"Hey boy.."
I say smirking at him back and give him a kiss.
He sits on the bar stool right next to me.
He leans back and puts his elbows facing the bartender and his body facing in the other direction.
"What are you up too?"
He says nodding to me.
"Tryin to get wasted.."
I say sarcastically.
He chuckles and Susan comes back from the bathroom.
"Hey Sus."
Dally says nonchalantly.
"Hey Dal."
Susan says back and sits right next to me.
"Can we get 3 cool ones..?"
Susan says to the bartender.
He walks off and brings back 3 ice cold beers.
Susan and I take out the money but Dally stops us and takes out a 5 and hands it to the guy.
"Thanks Dal."
Susan says smiling at him.
"No problem."
He says smirking and takes a drink of his cold beer.
He made it seem desirable, as though you'd been out in a desert for days and you hadn't drinkin anything.
I take a drink of mine and gulp the bitter cold drink down.
"Wow..I haven't had this good of a beer in a while.."
Susan says holding the bottle in her hand.
