Can we keep him?

       "Nicki, don't tell me you're going to keep him!?" Dustin shouted angrily as he saw Dakota exiting Nicki's closet. Nicki crossed her arms and snapped, "Well, what else do you want me to do? I wanna keep him."
       Dakota stared at Nicki and Dustin evenly and added in, "For the record, I don't even wanna be here. I should be back at home--my mother will be furious when she learns that Evan let me get taken."
       Nicki shrugged and retorted to Dustin, "Look, I say we get him on our side. It could work! You know, like in 'Lion Kin II' or in um....any other Disney movie!"
       Dustin threw his hands up in the air and hissed, "This isn't a Disney movie, Nicki. It's real life. You'd be better off learning about it and thinking that you can change anyone or anything. You're wrong. You can't do anything about it. So send the freak back home so we can change our home."
        "No." Nicki replied indignantly. "I'm not sending him back until we get him on our side. Then he can see both sides of the story and see which side he truly wants to be on."
        Dustin frowned once more and then threw Dakota a dark glare. He didn't like that his best friend was spending all of her time with Dakota, always telling him her story and everyone else's, treating him like he belonged. As if they actually wanted him here, instead of sending him back home or killing it. It was ridiculous! Nicki was being ridiculous. Dustin snorted in disbelief and then stormed out of Nicki's bedroom, slamming the door.
       He ignored everyone as he walked into the kitchen, pulling out plates and food, banging them down on the counter violently and then shouted, "Where does she get off, acting all high and mighty and keeping him!? He doesn't deserve any of her attention! I do!"
