*** Quick little Note someone asked about when people are talking and if it was bold or not It is when someone talks itll look like this "hello" if there's a note in the story it'll be in italics ***
"I'm not waking her up" I heard Soda's voice say
"Like hell I am Darr told you to" Pony rebutted
"he did not and I Refuse to wake her up she looks like a little princess" I heard Soda state I felt a pillow by my hand and smirked in my brain I quickly gripped the pillow I whipped it at Soda I heard a oof sound as he hit the couch
"Hey what was that for" he whined
"Don't call me a princess" I demanded my eye's still shut Pony laughed
"C'mon Marley get up and eat or were going to be late"Pony said I slowly sat up stretching and rubbing my eye's I walked into the kitchen to see Dar dishing out plate of hash browns, eggs, bacon and toast I could feel my mouth salivating I walked over to the empty chair Dar gave me a smile heading back to the stove
"This smells incredible" I took a bite of the scrambled eggs I never knew food could taste this good if it wasn't from the diner or take out since that was all I ever ate other then school food and that wasn't really edible
"Glad you like it kiddo now hurry up and eat before your all late" Dar said going to shower he didn't have to tell me twice I was starving when I was done we got up and headed outside to see Steve's truck
"Steve's giving us a ride" Said Pony I smiled
"Awesome"
"Do you guys wanna squish up front or ride in the back" Soda said opening the front door
"Back" I said before Pony had a chance to say anything they chuckled as we ran around and climbed in the back Steve started the truck and we drove off I looked up at the sky it was a pale blue I sat there staring up at it pretty much day dreaming till the truck came to a stop I looked down to see we were at the school then it hit me I didn't have my school stuff I hit the truck lightly
"What?" asked Soda putting his head out the window I stood up
"I forgot my bag at home" I said groaning sitting on the edge of the truck all three boys laughed
"Now you're really slumming it with us Greasers huh?" Said Soda winking I rolled my eye's and pony helped me off the truck we waved good by and walked towards the school
"I'm going to go to my locker see if I have a note book and some pens in there Ill see you in class and at lunch Pony" I said running into the school he waved bye I knew he'd be waiting for Johnny and Two-bit but I really wanted to see if I had my stuff before the bell ring and as I opened my locker I saw my self in the mirror my hair was a mess and I was still in Soda's shirt Everyone would be calling me a greaser now but the thought made me smile I took my hair down brushing it, It was still a disaster I slipped my hand into soda's pocket and pulled out a piece of material it was a bandanna I used it to put my hair up I found a Spare note book and few pens in my locker before the bell rang and I headed to Chemistry as I walked into class I saw Beth and her group of girls then Two-bit in the same row at the very back his head down probably asleep Beth noticed me and gave me her fake smile and waved me over
"Marley over here!" she shouted waving me over Two-bit lifted his head for a second then dropped it down I couldn't help but wonder what time he was at up Beth was still waving me over and a thought cross in to my brain I started to walk towards her smiling but it wasn't to her it was to two-bit as I walked past her I could feel her eye's digging a hole in the back of my head I sat down neck to Two-bit and flicked his ear he groaned and swatted at me
"not now I'm tired" he moaned
"what time did you stay up to?" I asked shaking my head he looked up slightly
"uhh what time did you fall asleep at?" he asked groggily
"I don't know one thirty" I said guessing
"alright.. soo like 4?" he said answering my question I smacked the back of his head he flinched rubbing it a giggled
"man no wonder Dall dose that to you its fun" I said to him smirking he looked over at me his head still down and attempted a glare but was to tired I laughed our teacher came in and started roll call and as he called my name and I raised my hand he looked stunned that I was sitting next to Two-bit so did everyone else though as I they stared I felt self conscious and slumped in my seat Two-bit put his hand on my leg and squeezed it in a comforting fashion soon enough everyone stopped staring and just started whispering as we started on out project I swore I had only looked down for a few seconds when I looked back up to see Two-bit pouring random things into our beaker and suddenly there was a loud bang an huge puff of smoke half of which I inhaled and before the teacher could yell at us the bell rang and we took off I was coughing and deiced to play it up I started to slow down coughing more and clutching my throat with one hand I collapsed loudly smacking my note book on the ground Gasping for air I heard Two-bit chuckle as I had my face down
"oh stop being so dramatic Mar and get up before you get squashed" Two-bit said I looked up with a big cheesy grin and jumped up
"what class do I have" Two bit asked I shook my head
"we have math with Johnny and Ponyboy" I said and before I could say thing else he hooted and ran down the hall yelling something about sleeping I laughed and kept walking I felt a hand grab mine I was turned to see Beth and her clones
"oh my god Marley you look awful come on let's get you changed" she said I tried to protest
"no no what kind of friend would I be if i let you walk around looking like greaser it would ruin your image" she started dragging me to the bathroom I didn't argue with her there was no point even though in my head I was saying stuff like. I like the way I look and your not my friend bitch you don't care as I stood in the bathroom the girls took Soda shirt and my pants and tossed them on the counter and put a bright pink sweet heart dress on me and did my hair up as well as my make up as I looked in the mirror I thought I was going to die of embarrassed t I looked like a freaking barbie Beth smiled
"perfect" she said as they all started to walk me into class when we got there Two-bit was doing god know's what and as he saw me he broke out into fit of laughter causing everyone to look at him he calmed him self and looked at me still laughing on the inside I mouthed save me but he was to busy still in his moment to do anything Beth forced me into my seat literally the bodice on this dress made me barley able to move or breath
"I cant breathe really" I told breath she looked at me annoyed
"beauty is pain god Marley even my three year old sister knows that" she said in her bitchy tone I rolled my eye I saw Pony and Johnny walked in they both looked sad and hurt that I was with the soc's our teacher came in and took attendance half way threw the class Beth started bitching about Greasers and how her parents wouldn't by her the brand new car she wanted and as my breath got shorter and she bitched more I couldn't take it I stood up all eye's were on me again
"Marley what are you doing" the teacher asked
"I'm going into the bathroom getting out of this god forsaken dress I can barley breath in taking off all the stupid make up that makes me look like a barbie and putting the clothes I liked back on" I screamed a little more harshly then attend but It was to late I stormed out of the class back to the bathroom luckily the clothes were still there I changed quickly and scrubbed the caked on make up off my face before fixing my hair I heard the lunch bell ring and smiled at the thought I could finally see some of my boy's as I said that to my self in my head I smiled I walked out of the bathroom towards the Cafeteria I felt my self shoved against the locker and hand firmly on my throat it was bob
"well looked at you slumming it with Greaser well not no more your coming back to our table you're a soc Marley nothing will change that" he hissed at me letting go of my throat I gasped for air as he dragged me into the cafeteria I didn't look up I knew if I did Id see Johnny, Pony and Two-bit and Johnny and Pony 's eye's would be full of hurt and Two-bit would be pissed I sat down anger in me I couldn't stand that it would break my heart I sat there as all the Soc's talked about stuff I didn't care about Dances boy's each other and then they started about something that made my skin boil Jumping greasers and as Bob started bragging more and more my hands gripped my tray as the girls encouraged him then I just snapped I stood up swinging the tray right into Bob's face and covering the girls in the stuff the the lunch lady called food everyone gasped except the girls they screamed I stood up and stormed towards the door
"MARLEY" my principle yelled
"yeah 'I know I'm suspended for 3 months" I said walking by him I had seen enough greaser get in trouble with socks to know 3 months was the length of time I stormed outside I suddenly felt my self being lifted in the air and spun as Two-bit laughed away he put me down and put his hands on my shoulders
"do you know how epic that was" he yelled letting me go and jumping around I laughed
"man I cant wait till we tell the gang about that!" Ponyboy piped in coming down the steps I blushed and looked down
"It wasn't that cool you guys" I said a little embarrassed
"are you kidding Dall will be so proud of you" Johnny said his quiet voice I blushed
"you're turning into such the little greaser" said Two-bit messing up my hair I swatted at him smiling the bell rang I sighed
"well you three better get your butts to class" I said they sighed
"go see Soda and Steve at the DX they'll love to hear what happened shouted Two-bit running inside on the way to the station I passed my house and even thought I knew inside id regret It I headed over to it deciding I need to get clothes as I walked up the stairs I tried to open the door.. it was locked It was never locked dad didn't know the meaning of a locked door I peeked in the window there was nothing there the house was empty I felt my heart drop
"if your looking for Marley and her father they packed everything up and left late last night" I heard my elderly neighbor say she clearly didn't recognize me I didn't reply to her I couldn't my throat became dry as tears streamed down my cheeks I was abandoned by my own father the one who was supposed to love and protect me I started to run as hard and fast as I could and even though my legs ached and felt like jello and breathing hurt I kept running in till I ran straight into Soda at the Dx I wrapped my arms around him panting heavily tears still falling he was a little taken back at first then hugged me
"what's wrong Marley?" he asked concern in his voice I just panted my throat was dry Steve came out of no where it seemed like with a glass of water I sipped it and took a deep breath looking down
"my dad... he's.. gone.." I said quietly
"what do you mean he's gone" Soda said he voice full of anger and concern
"he left.. he abandoned me the house is empty the neighbor said he packed up late last night and left.." I said tears falling again I felt Soda hug me tightly
"Steve can I borrow your truck" I assumed he said yes because soon Soda was picking me up and placing me in it
"i'm going to drop you back off at your house go in see if you can find a note or some clothes then meet me back at my place okay I gotta talk to Dar" he said to me I nodded he pulled up to the house and I took a deep breath getting out Soda drove off I went to the back the door didn't lock so I just walked in as I looked threw the house there was no note no nothing at all even my room was empty tears streamed down my face again I ended up taking off out the back door and running to the Curtis residence when I got there I stopped and caught my breath I quietly opened the door
"No Soda I'm sorry I cant handle another mouth to feed she cant live here" I heard Dar yell I flinched and apparently made a squeak the both turned but I slammed the door running off before they could say anything as I ran down the street I could hear them yelling after me I kept running till the street lights started to come on I collapsed onto my knees and as I looked up I realized I was at the cemetery I stumbled my way tripping numerous times in till I got to my mothers grave were I collapsed and started to ball mumbling things about why did she have to die why was I such a burden why didn't anyone want me I was crying so hard I didn't even notice the Baby blue mustang pull up I felt my self being yanked up by my hair before I shoved into the tree a hand pressing firmly down on my throat making it hard to breathe It was bob and as he stood there choking and slapping me call me tons of horrible things I couldn't think of reason to try and fight back I wasn't wanted no one loved me I was all alone and wanted nothing more then to join my mother Bob punched my stomach and tossed me onto the ground next to my mother grave kicking me in the gut and as I laid there I heard my mothers voice whisper threw my ears as gentle as the wind
"never let the bastards get you down" It said it was something she said a lot even more so the few months before the cancer took her I felt anger building with in Bob leaned down to whisper something and I kicked him straight in the balls he keeled over onto his side groaning in pain I took off running not knowing where I was going I had no were to go I just kept running then I saw the Dx Station I knew they had no alarms I could only pray the boys didn't lock it up and as I pushed on the door it made that familiar ding sound meaning some one entered I smiled to my self and ran into the bathroom I opened the door and locked it behind me turning the light on I looked in the mirror my eye was swollen bruises formed on my throat I had dried blood on my face I sighed and cleaned my self up a bit before the tears started again I walked over to the door and leaned on it sliding down it and laying on the floor till I cried my self to sleep I woke up to yelling
"stop telling me to calm down Steve" I heard Soda's Voice yell
"Soda Dar and Dall are worried enough as it is not to mention the boy's freaking out im sure she's fine she's a smart kid" I heard Steve say in a calming voice
"you didn't see the hurt in her eye's Steve" Soda snapped
"I know.. but she fine i'm sure of it" I heard Steve say his voice less hopeful then before
"Dar didn't come home till 5 am and Dall's still out there looking for her Steve" Soda said I could hear him sighing
"Well find her Soda" Steve said
"what if something happened what if she's hurt Dar already is beating him self up about this if she's hurt.. he'll snap" Soda said pain filled my heart hearing how sad he was an even though I didn't want to I stood up and unlocked the door walking to the end of the small halfway and standing there
"Marley!" Steve said a smile on his face
"what about he-" Soda stopped him self as he looked up at Steve seeing him smile he turned to look at me he looked like he hadn't slept me all night he ran off and pulled me into a tight hug
"were have you been what happened" he asked frantically I just looked down
"I'm going to go call Dar" Steve said walking to the back my stomach growled I hadn't eaten since yesterday morning Soda forgot about his question and walked me over to the stool behind the counter he sat me down gently and handed me a muffin I stared tearing it apart eating it there was a ding from the gas bar and soda Sighed
"ill be right back stay here don't go anywhere" he said sternly then ran out side I sat there looking down taking bits off my muffin I heard the door ding again and didn't look up figuring it was Soda but boy was I wrong..
"Where the hell have you been young lady do you know how fucking worried we've all been weve all been looking for you were out all night trying to find you Dallas is still out there looking for you worried sick something happened" I looked up to see a very pissed off Darry my eye's went wide as he continued to scream at me I looked back down tears starting to fall I felt a hand on my shoulder I looked to see Steve
"Dar stop yelling at her" Soda screamed coming inside
"look what your doing" I looked up as Soda said that and as soon as Dar saw the tears in my eye's his face became soft and he sighed
"I'm sorry.. I was just.. worried is all"I just nodded Steve rubbed my shoulder soothingly
"it's alright" he said quietly
"come on guy's let's go home there's a bunch of overly worried boy's that would just love to see Marley" said Dar I Looked up at him and he nodded at the door I stood up still looking down and we all headed for the cars as we arrived at the house they all headed in and I stood outside the front door bracing my self for anger from them..
