I own nothing and never will.

Chapter 2

Lee's POV

Great. This is just perfect. This is just what I needed. Getting lost in this huge town. Think happy thoughts. It could be worse. At least I have my MP3 player. I thought and took it out. I started a song and walked towards a park. I looked up at the sky and saw the sun setting. Good. I like the moon better then the sun anyways. I thought and looked down the street and saw 2 people walking towards me. I didn't care. I just continued walking.

"Wait!" someone yelled. I ignored them and turned my music up louder. I walked towards the fountain and sat down. The 2 people caught up with me in a few minutes.

"Finally! We've been searching everywhere for you!" One of them said.

"...Do I know you?" I asked. They just stared at me.

"You don't remember?" The other asked. I shook my head.

"I'm Ponyboy and this is Johnny." Pony said. I nodded.

"What do you want?" I asked.

"To take you back." Pony said.

"I can't go back." I said. ...They're stareing at me again. I thought. They backed away and started whispering to each other.

Normal POV

"We can't just leave her." Johnny said.

"What are we suppose to do?" Pony asked.

"You go tell the others and I'll stay with her and see why see doesn't want to come back." Johnny said.

"Ok." Pony said and ran off. Johnny turned around and stared at Lee.

Lee's POV

"Where's he going?" I asked as I watched Ponyboy run off.

"Home." Johnny said. I nodded and looked around.

"Why don't you want to go home?" He asked.

"I can't." I said.

"Why?"

"Because I need to find a good place."

"For what?"

"The stars are coming out soon."

"Why do you want to see the stars?" He asked. He's really starting to piss me off. I thought.

I sighed and said, "Because."

"Why?"

"Why do you asked so many questions?" I asked.

"I don't know." He said. I sighed and got up. I looked around again and walked away.

"I know a good spot!" Johnny yelled. I stopped and waited for him to continue.

"Follow me." He said and walked in the opposite direction. I sighed, turned around and followed him. When I caught up with him, he asked another question.

"What's your problem?" That caught me off gaurd.

"What's my problem? Have you ever moved away from your hometown to a different town that's far away, stay there for a year and get a bunch of friends in the new town, then move back to your hometown and be an outcast? My old friends won't even talk to me! It's like they didn't even know me!! They pretend that what happened before I moved never happened! You go through that and pretend that everything is ok!" I yelled. I know I shouldn't have yelled, but I couldn't help it. Everyone thought that it would be ok, but it isn't.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have yelled. I'm just in a bad mood. But I'll be happy when the sun goes down." I said.

"How will you be happy?" He asked.

"I don't like the sun. I think the moon is better. I sometimes stay out all night just staring at the stars and moon." I explained.

"You like the stars?" He asked.

"Yeah." I replied.

"I do to." He said.

"Cool." I said and we walked on in silence. Soon we reached our destination. It was a meadow with trees surrounding it. You could see the stars clearly out here.

"Wow." I said and looked around. I looked at Johnny and smiled. He smiled back. I went to the center of the meadow, layed down, and waited for the stars.

OK, enough for today. Please review!
