Falling For My Best Friend (Steve Randle x OC)

Woah, my love, my darling

*P.S. This song goes with this chapter, well, a part of it.*

Woah, my love, my darling

I've hungered for your touch

A long, lonely time

And time goes by so slowly

And time can do so much

Are you still mine?

I need your love

I need your love

God speed your love to me

*Steve's POV*

I stopped my rambling and looked down at the girl that I called my best friend, her head resting on my shoulder, and I smiled. I ran my fingers through her dirty blonde, straight hair. Her breathing was regular, steady and I could tell she was asleep. I slowly scooted away from her and got off of the bed. I looked at her once more, before I walked out into the hallway, then to the couch. I couldn't sleep with her, she was one of my best friends. I laid on the couch, crossing my arms, and rested my eyes.

*Mikaela's POV*

I opened my eyes, almost immediately met with a beam of sunshine. Right away I noticed that Steve was gone. The house was awfully quiet, too. I walked out into the hallway after changing into some leggings and a black T-shirt. Nobody. I checked Soda and Pony's room. Nothing. I noticed a note on my door when I was walking back to my room.

Darry, Sodapop and Steve were all at work, Ponyboy, Johnny, and Two-bit were at the DX with Steve and Soda, and Dallas was probably and Bucks or something.

I was home alone. I thought about that for a second. I'd never been home by myself before. I could pretty much do anything that I wanted. I turned on the radio and decided to sing and dance to the music. The first song was, Can't Help Falling In Love, by, of course, the king of rock and roll. I sung along and even danced a little, but didn't get into it too much. After that song was over, my favorite song came on, and it was by The Righteous Brothers. I knew all the words to this song, so I had to sing along. I held my hand in a fist in front of my face, kind of like a microphone.

Woah, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to meLonely rivers flow
To the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea, yeah
Lonely rivers sigh
"Wait for me, wait for me"
I'll be coming home, wait for meWoah, my love, my darling
I've hungered, hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me

I heard a cough when the song ended and jumped, I didn't think anyone was home, I guess I didn't hear the door open, so I turned around.

"S-steve," I stammered, embarressed, "What are you doing here, I thought you were at the DX?"

"Soda wanted me to check on you, to see if you were awake," he smiled and I couldn't help but smile back.

"Oh, um I'll go with you, back to the gas station," I said as I walked to the front door and put my shoes on, I could tell that my face was red.

I ran back to my room and turned the radio off then met Steve outside. He brought his truck over so we hopped in and he started it up.
