Darry's POV
My girl, Lisa. She's quiet but can be brought out of her shell by Two Bit. Lisa Heath, like the choclate bar. When Two Bit was cracking on her name she'd kiss me and say "I'm as sweet as one." I'd just nod wanting her to kiss me again. She works at the book shop and brings any extra books or ones that don't sell to Pony. I can tell Pony's her favorite out of my two brothers not to say she hates Soda.
She loves reading. I look over a few times at Lisa and she's holding a book infront of her face, once she ran into the door. Two Bit never lets her forget it . She leaves work a little earlier than me so she's always home when I get there. Lisa's a Soc's but on her own right now,she wants to show her parents she can make it in the world. I was walking home when I heard her voice reading poetry to Pony.
If it's a confusing poem to read she'll read it outloud. I came in the house to hear Two-Bit say to Lisa "Shut your trap." Lisa smiled and said "I'll shut mine when you shut your's." I saw part of the coffee table was wet and said "What happened?" Lisa smiled innocently and said "Two- Bit was being mean so me and Pony tortured him with Chinese water torture." I smiled and wiped it off. "Did it work?" I asked Lisa. She smiled evilly and said "Ask Two-Bit."
Two Bit sat up and said "Nearly drove me insane." I have never thought my girl friend was evil until now. Pony laughed at Two Bit's answer and said "It's suppose to." Today was Friday and the book store is doing good but there are always extra books. "Have you tried any other methods of torture on Two Bit?" I asked putting my arm around Lisa. She picked up a book and said "No that would kill him, no too messy,already did it,we don't have a bamboo tree."
Two-Bit's eyes went wide as she said "It would kill him", and "too messy." Lisa laughed and said to Two-Bit" I'm not going to hurt you,I'm tired after selling books." I leaned back into the couch seeing if I could rest my shoulder with out anyone knowing I hurt it. "I gotta get something out of my car." She said leaving. Pony looked at me and sighed saying "Darry you threw out your shoulder didn't you." I knew if I answered yes, he'd tell Lisa. There was no way of winning,even if only Soda knew Lisa would find out.
"Yeah, I did but let's keep it between you and me okay." I said. Pony nodded. Lisa came back in with a box of books and a tin of fudge. She made her own fudge snce she didn't like the bakery's. Pony's eyes went wide at the books and fudge. She saw me struggle with my arm and looked at Pony with the tin of fudge in her hands."Did he?" She asked opening it. I could tell Pony was breaking. Lisa's fudge was really good, maybe even good enough to sell a brother out.
Pony nodded and she gave a piece of fudge and patted his head. She turn to me and said "Baby,don't hurt your shoulders." I sighed and said "I don't chose to." She started rubbing my shoulders and said "But you chose to carry more shingles then humanly possible."I sighed,she was getting better at rubbing my shoulders. I saw one of the books on the table Injury Massage Index.
"You've read that haven't you." I said. She nodded and offered a piece of fudge. I smiled and took it, could this day get any better,on the weekends Lisa spends the night,and why is she such a good cook. "Hey Soda, Lisa,Pony Super." Steve said getting cut off by Lisa's hates when he calls me super dope.
A few hours later... still Darry's POV
Lisa's asleep. I'm laying down almost asleep. A small crack of light comes in through the door. I see the outline of Pony. "Darry." He whispers."Yeah, what's wrong." I whisper back. "Nothin but I gotta ask you something." He whispers. "What?" I whisper tossing back over holding Lisa."Do you love Lisa?" He asked. "Hmm." I said trying to go back to sleep. "What's it like?" He asked. "Real good Pony after all we lost real good." I said trying to close my eyes.
"Why do you love her?" He asked. I sat up and said "Go in the livingroom,I'll be there in a second." I got up making sure Lisa was still asleep and walked in the living room. "You want to know why love her." I asked yawning. Pony nodded and said "When I was walking her home from the store a few Soc's were sweet talkin her,and she spit in their faces." I smiled slightly for a second and said "She's kind,smart,fearless,a really good cook,practical." Pony nodded.
"I was actually thinking about marrying her but..."I said laughing. Pony's eyes went wide. "You should!" He yelled."Shhh." I said nearly spitting. "Her parents would kill her if they found out." I said actually thinking. "So her parents don't matter." Pony said. "Her father is the owner of a bank pony,I'm a roofer." I said. "And she's a book store clerk." He said. "Don't tell her I don't care if she gives you fudge or drips water on your head don't tell her." I said knowing she would.
