Johnny has a strong arm wrapped around Pony's shoulder. The younger boy shifts against the hard floor, trying to find a comfortable position in Johnnys grasp.

The older boy takes a finger and points to the sky. It's a black whirlpool, sucking in the tiny bits of light. The stars flash against the dark background, withstanding the pull of the current.

Together, without words, they admire the rippling darkness spread across the earth. Both of them admire nature more then anyone else in their gang.

"You know," Ponyboy starts quietly. "I feel safer around you." He mutters sleepily, resting his cheek against Johnny's chest.

"Hmmm?" The single syllable sound slips through Johnny's pressed lips.

"It's not like laying with Soda," Ponyboy says. "It's different. Weird."

"I don't know, Ponyboy," Johnny says hesitantly. "Could just be you."

"Yeah," Ponyboy comes to a conclusion. "It could be just me."
