Disclaimer-I do not own the Outsiders
A/N-This chapters short, but I wanted to know if people liked the idea before I went to crazy with it. I have read a lot of fics about Soda having a girl, so I mixed it up and he has a son.
I stared up at my mom sadly as she stuffed all of my stuff into my blue backpack, her long blonde hair was knotted and her china-blue eyes were misty.
"Where are we going mamma?" I asked. Her head snapped up and she smiled a sweet, rare smile at me.
"We're going on a little trip," she said, "to see you daddy." My eyes widened excitedly.
"You mean I get to meet daddy?" I asked happily.
"Yup," she said. In my whole four years of living I have never seen my dad, I only know that his name was Sodapop Curtis. My mom always tells me how I have his eyes and personality, but that I got my blonde hair from her. I have lived in Florida with me aunt and cousins ever since I was a baby and mom always promised to take me to see him when I got bigger.
"Where does daddy live?" I asked. Mom grabbed a piece of paper and pencil from a drawer.
"He lives in Oklahoma sweetie," she said as she wrote something down.
"Is that a long way from here?" I asked looking over her shoulder.
"Yes Andrew," she said, clearly annoyed by all the questions.
"What are you writing?" I asked. She sighed and looked at me.
"Why don't you go tell Amy and Jordan bye," she suggested. I ran out of the room that mom and me shared and saw my older cousins reading in their room. Amy looked at me and smiled. She was thirteen and her brother was eleven.
"Hey Drew, what's up?" she asked. I jumped on the bed beside her.
"I'm suppose to come and tell you guys bye," I said. Then it ht me on how much I would miss my aunt and cousins.
"Where you going?" Jordan asked, putting his book down.
"To see my daddy in Okwahoma," I said proudly. Amy frowned.
"I didn't know you were leaving," she said. I shrugged.
"Mamma just told me," I said. She smiled.
"Well, I'll miss ya squirt," she laughed. I stuck my tongue out at her and mom came into the room.
"Come on Andrew," she ordered. I gave my cousins on last hug and told them I would call and I followed my mom out of the house and into a cab that was parked in the drive. Beth, my aunt, was waiting beside it. When she seen me she gave me a big hug.
"Bye Drew, I'll talk to you soon," she said. I smiled.
"Bye Aunt Beth," I waved and I was put into the car my mom.
"Where to miss," the driver asked.
"Train station," she smiled and I waved out the back window to my family. If only I knew how long it would be til the next time I saw them.
