"Steve I'm gotta go home" I told him
"Okay, Tell pony I said hi" Steve said
He messed my hair up
"Hey!" I said
We both laugh
I told him I would
Soda was workin on the pumps so I wasn't able to talk to him as much I left
Steve is half time Soda is full time
I walked to the store I thought of Dal's lifeless face and his lifeless eyes the gun shots on his chest us screaming darry screaming at the police
Calling the idiots and freaks us crying if I'd stay at the movies I'd had more time with them
I've know them for so long I've known darry, soda and pony since I was little my parents knew them I know when Dally died
Its what he always wanted but why he want to leave us, I've seen things I won't ever forget
My thought disappeared when I Hurd someone yell
"Hey greaser think it's over!"
The way he said greaser made me chuckle Yeah I knew they won't come over but Don't mean it's over
"WHAT SO FUNNY HUH!" One yelled
"I'm not lookin for trouble" I said
"We are"one said
They laughed I turned i saw them in the rumble they were gettin us good I wasn't about to panic I hate getting jumped
"She's a nice lookin broad" one said
A car door closed
Shut them 3 more
I froze i turned and ran
They got close I'm a fast runner
"Let's see how strong you are" he said
"Y'all greasers don't know what coming for y'all" he said
"Yeah but your not aloud over" I said
I punched one in the nose his
One punched me I punched back I screamed
I was kicked and punched
Is isn't over it won't ever be over will it
they left they where done with me i thought I was beat up so much
I sat up they were gone
Everything went black
I ain't gonna die this Isn't the end, I Finley could see
I saw someone
"Y/n?" He said
The blur cleared a bit
It was Carson
I felt dizzy I stood up
"I-I was jumped"I said
I could take on one of two socs but they come in 4 or 5
Dal always was strong he showed me how to fight with my fist
"I-I'm fine I need go home" I said
"Okay be careful"he said I nodded
And walked home more i limped home I walked into the house I landed on the couch
"Y/n you okay?" A voice asked
I opened my eyes partly
"P-pony?" I could hardly get out "yeah?" He said
"Socs" i said softly
"Socs do this do you" He asked
"Y-yeah" I said tryin not to pass out I laid down pony put a blanket over me
"T-thank pony" I said
He kissed my forehead
And told me to go to sleep
I fell asleep I woke up my vision was better
Someone was putting a wet cloth on my face I looked to see pony
"Where's Everyone" I asked
"Work, and two-bit is watchin Mickey" He said
I Hurd two-bits laugh I smiled
"They got you huh?" He said
"Yeah, real bad" I said
He sighed
I sat up
"It ain't over it won't be pony, it won't ever the soc still goin jump is it's won't end pony" I said
He sighed
"Rumbles ain't gonna do anything, keep them away a bit but it ain't gonna change the fact their higher then us, we can't really beat them pony face it, Soda, Steve, two-bit Maybe darry won't get it, but you, Johnny and I did,
I don't think darry would even know" I said
"Yeah"he said
I hugged him I kissed him I stood up
I went to the kitchen
"Why you so red pony!" Two-bit asked
"Nothin" pony said
I made me some soup
And walked to the livin room sat next to two-bit and ate
I looked around
Almost everyone was here other than darry
I saw how they where talking and laughing together as I was trying to keep them happy and keep and us together i wanted there happiness over mine but I wasn't looking back at me and saw that I wasn't happy that I should be next to them being happy
My mom, Johnny and Dally's funerals are common up-
"You alrighty" someone asked
I was erased from my thoughts
"Yeah" i said to soda
I stood up and walked outside
And remembered all the fun and good time we had, when we use to go to the movies, when we go to the park, when dal, Johnny, pony and I would hang out, how Dal hated kids, how Johnny was soft and sweet,I once was told the loneliest people are the kindest, the saddest people have the brightest smile, the most damaged are the wisest, the most scared people are the softest
Lonely like soda pop when sandy left him but soda keep pony and Darry together, the saddest like me and two-bit but We always had a smile, damaged like Dally He's was damaged more than anyone I've known and will ever know, and scared like Johnny he was scared all the time put he was kind and kept us together,
We never seen how broken each of us are until you look deep and see, god Johnny was only 16 and Dally only 18, still kids we don't know how everything in life changes You it brakes you thought time
Soda try to keep darry and pony together but he could only for so long,
No one under stood how broken Sodapop and how broken we all are,and when Dally died
He always got want he wanted and he wanted to be dead, Darry he was just trying to care fo pony and pony couldn't notice how much Darry loved him but Darry wasn't showin the love pony wanted to see and Darry just wanted pony to be safe, and when Dallas broke he didn't wanna show he was broken he'd been broken for a long time but this time it took over, nether did we but sometimes when yours such a broken person you don't show it
It's almost human nature we don't want people to see us weak mostly we don't want out friends out family to see us broken and sad
family is all we have whether your born with it or one you create
I will never forget what Johnny showed me he showed me how to be brave and stick up for my self and dal showed me even strongest people have there weakest points, I will never forget how lucky I was to spend time with those boys and how lucky I am to spend have my friends that I have, i Wouldn't ask for any other friends
What I learned the most important the people we love never truly leave Us
-The End
