You were asleep in your boyfriend’s “apartment”. He had gotten into a fight with someone earlier that night and just wanted to sleep it off.

A knock was heard of the door which caused both of you to stir from your restful state. Dallas got up, put on a pair of jeans, still shirtless, and opened the door to reveal Buck Merrill. After a few words were exchanged Dallas gave you a quick look and left the room. You looked at the now closed door in confusion before resting your head back on the pillow of his bed, too tired to care at the moment.

A few minutes later the door reopened with more than just one voice, three voices to be exact. You sat up from the bed to find Johnny and Ponyboy trailing after Dallas into the room, both looking shaken up for reasons unknown to you.
