Chapter one

Dealing with things

Pony pov

I knew they were talking about me and I knew I worried them I couldn't help it .But this was only my way of dealing with things. Yeah I did knew that I didn't smile so often anymore. But for god sake I just saw one of my close friend getting shot and my best friend die crumble in a creepy hospital bed . Did you really expected me to smile after that. And hell I never was the talkative type of guy before so why should I start now. I really wish they would stop looking at me like I was going to break or something. This was only my way of dealing with things.

Darry Pov

I could saw my little brother frowning from where he was sitting on the couch. I knew he knew that we were talking about him again . We just couldn't help it . My brother was not half the one he was before all this shit. He never smile anymore he didn't go out anymore. All he ever did was going to school do is homework and going to bed without a word to anyone. Even Soda couldn't make him smile. And shout if soda couldn't ... then who could ?

Soda Pov

My baby brother ... My poor little brother. He was so damn hurt right now that he couldn't even bring himself to smile. He kept running into things . I swear those damn socs were going to pay. This was killing me but it was killing Darry even more. Since he was little Pony always was Darry little precious. Darry love Pony more than anything even if Pony couldn't saw it. If something was to happen to him ... it would kill Darry. Hell it would kill me also. Somehow we had to find a way to help him.

Breaking the tense silence of the Curtis house Two bit came in slamming the door behind him.

-Hey guys

-Hey Two bit

-Keith

But Ponyboy didn't say anything he barely gave Two bits a look before suddenly standing up and announcing

-I'm tired I'm going to sleep good night

Turning around without waiting for an answer he miss the hurt look of Darry and the frown on Soda face.

Sighing Two bits sat in front of Darry and said.

-guys something is really wrong with Pony.

-Yeah and you notice that now say Darry with a cold voice

knowing that Darry was only tense because of Pony Two bits continue without taking offence

-No Darry you don't understand something happen today at school.

Seeing that he now had everyone complete attention he continue.

-Some socs came and start telling shit about the fact that he was a killer and stuff. But shout you should have seen his face. No reaction no emotion at all. He didn't even blink man. Not even when they say that Johnny was better of dead. His eyes were so cold. I swear I saw Dally for a second. Then when they were finish he walk away without a back glance like nothing happen. This is not Ponyboy man. Pony is a deep feeling kind of guy I don't like it . Even Steven notice it.

-Darry what are going to do say Soda completely shock

- I don't know little buddy I just don't know
