I almost started crying while writing this...need I say anymore?
Enjoy!

Flashback to the beginning. You were here.
Hell, everyone was. Dally. Johnny. Mom. Dad.
Y'all were here and we were so, so happy.
There was a lot more smiling back then, I remember.
Then we dropped like flies, didn't we Soda?
First mom and dad. They had been the first.
It was hard but I still had so much left.
I had the gang.
Soda, I had you.
Dally and Johnny went next. I think I nearly lost it after that one, but I was held together.
By you.
You held me together, Soda. You always have.
Now? I'm not so sure.
Because next it was your turn.
Nobody expected it. But when those men all showed up at our door, we all knew.
Oh how I hate those men. Even all these months later.
I know it's not their fault.
I know I'm being silly, Soda.
And I'm sorry for that.
But now I don't even have you. Soda...I'm really not sure what to do.
I never noticed how much of a racket you really caused. Knocking things over and driving away with the car engine at full power.
Now it's almost silent.
It's been fifteen hours since I've eaten.
Someone is always keeping track.
Always. On my every move.
It sucks here. I hate it. I know you would too.
Whenever I look around I am reminded of you and how much you would despise it where I am.
Most of the time no one is around and I have time to think.
That is for worse.
Soda.
Soda.
Soda?
I'm sorry, I guess I thought you left.
But I know you wouldn't do that. You were always there for me. Even since day one.
I know you still are now.
Speaking of which, let's do it again.
Flashback to the beginning.
Everyone was here.
Now I am alone.
All alone, Soda. Do you know how much it sucks to be alone?
I guess you would know. You were alone for almost a year before they killed you.
I shouldn't word it like that.
I'm such a screwup, Soda. You've always known that.
Pity you didn't say anything before it was too late.
Darry was just in; he said-
Soda!
They're taking me away from you.
They found me out.
They know I talk to you.
Shit. I knew this day would come.
Did you tell them? Was it you?
No it wasn't. You never told my secrets. Not ever.
Right now is still the same than ever.
This is our secret, how I talk to you.
I know you listen.
I know it.
…..…...…...…...…...…...…...…...
I'm sorry about that.
I am better now, we can continue our talk.
They didn't find us out. This is still our secret Soda…
I forgot that it is five o'clock. That's medicine time for me.
They came in with the needle and I guess I got scared.
You've always known about my fear of needles, haven't you?
I know it's shitty. Only screwups have 'medicine times'.
But by the end of the day, we know the truth. How much of one I am.
But like I said, I am alone.
All alone, except for you.
I just hope they don't find you Soda, I really do.
Because you may be gone, but all along, you held me together.
Sodapop Curtis, stay. Stay here, don't let them take you.
Or else I really will be alone.
Because I think Darry is too scared to visit me here sometimes, Soda.
Two-Bit and Steve too.
They don't want to see what I have become.
They're afraid of me, Soda.
Afraid.
I only have you, so you must stay.
You must.
Hello?
It's a shame you never talk back.
You really should.
I'd be a little less lonely.
Alright. Let's pick up where we started. Ok?
Flashback to the beginning. You were there.
