Disclaim- I don't own the Outsiders
Soda's POV
I squinted at the bright light coming in through the crack in the window. Man, it was bright. I looked over to see Pony was still sleeping, but I could hear Darry making breakfast in the kitchen. As we already both had to do the dishes, I figured I should him up. I leaned over him and started tickling his ribs. At first, he squinted his eyes, then he wiggled around some, and then began laughing his head off.
"Come, on Pony!" I half said, half laughed. He sat up and stopped laughing.
"Whew. That gets me every time"
"I know." I laughed, jumping off the bed and running to the kitchen, and Pony followed after. Of course, he was faster than I was, so he beat me there and tried to jump on me and tackle me, running straight into the table. Darry looked up from the stove.
"Settle it down, would ya? I thought I was running a household, not a rodeo." I helped Pony up from the floor.
"Aww, lighten up, Dar. I see who's Mr. Grumpy Pants this morning." I loved to tease Darry. I got so much fun out of it.
"Yeah, Yeah." he replied. Ponyboy had picked up a plate of pancakes and sat down.
"Hey, Soda, whatcha doin today?" I joined him at the table and loaded my pancakes with syrup. That means more sugar.
"Uhh, I think me and Steve are taking Kelly and Evie to dinner tonight, why?" he looked down at his pancakes.
"Oh, so that means that I can't go, huh?"
"Sorry, baby, not tonight, alright"
"Yeah, okay. I'll go and hang out with Johnny or somethin." he resumed eating and piled some more pancakes on his plate. I felt kind of bad though, because I liked hanging out with my little brother. But I also liked hanging out with Steve and Kelly. Kelly was a girl I met at the DX, and I was in love with her.
"Sorry, Pone, maybe tomorrow night alright? I'll even go to the movies with ya." I was willing to go to the movies with Ponyboy, even though I hated sitting there for so long. This made him cheer up a little bit, because he sat up and finished his pancakes. He put his plate in the sink and began to work on the dishes. I walked up to the sink and put my plate in the sink as well. I had to help him, so I picked up the sprayer and I squirted him with freezing cold water. He flinched a little.
"Hey!" I kept going and I was laughing, so he held up a dirty plate to shield himself from the water. That made me laugh and then Darry walked in. He smacked my head, but not that hard.
"You guys are both nuts. I can't belive I'm related to you." He sat down and read the paper. He seemed to like to do that, and I don't know why. It was so boring. But I sure did like cartoons. I headed towards the bathroom to take a shower. I was kind of excited for tonight.
Here's the first chapter. I hope you like it and I will continue.
