Next chapter here you are.
"What do you boys want?' Asked a guy as he answered the door.
"Dally man we gotta see Dally." Johnny said.
"He's busy."
"God damn it get your ass out of here and go get Dally or so help me I'll..." I trailed off giving him a deadly glare. The guy looked at me and eyed the neck less for a second before closing the door.
"Man Sadie it's a good thing you're Shepard's gal," Johnny said,"Buck's scared stiff of him ever sense Tim beat the hell out of him for god only knows what." Johnny said. I nodded my head and turned back to the door as it opened with Dally standing in the frame.
"What do you guy's want?" He asked
"Johnny killed a soc." Ponyboy said. The kid was freezing.
"What? Alright good for you. Come on." Dally said pulling Johnny Pony and me inside,"Pony are you wet?" he said as he grabbed his shoulder. We NWT up stairs and into a room Dally closed the door behind us. He went over to a daror pulled out a gun and handed it to Johnny the pulled fifty bucks out of his pocket, then gave Pony a dry shirt and his coat. Then told us to jump a train to Windrexvill and hide out in an old church on Jay mountain,"Man I'm not itchen to tell your brothers about this." He said looking at me and Pony.
"Then don't tell him/them." We said at the same time.
I sat up against the train wall holding the gun Dally gave Johnny. He had given it to me as soon as he were out side buck's place. Now we were sitting inside one of the cars. Both Johnny and Pony had fallen asleep. I rested both there heads on my lap to make things more comfortable for them. I absentmindedly brushed Johnny's bang's back as I thought about everything that happened that night. I didn't like it one bit. I looked out the opening to the train car. it was dawn and I saw that we were in Windrexvill,"Pony Johnny we have to get off." I said in a soft motherly tone of voice as I shook them gentle. They both let out a moan and sat up.
"So thats the church huh? I said looking at the run down building.
"Yep looks like it." Johnny said. We walked toward it and went in side laying don on th ground w all fell asleep the last thing I heard was Ponyboy murmuring something.
I woke put before Ponyboy and saw Johnny had written in the dirt that he'd be back soon. I sighed as I got up and went out side and sat on the step's. After a while Ponyboy came out and walked over to the pump. I went over to him,"Morning Pony." I said.
"Yeah morning Sadie." he said.
I looked up at the sky,"Hey Pony sorry about yesterday." I said.
"What are you talking about?" he asked.
"Yesterday when you said those things to Johnny, I slapped you. I'm sorry." I said.
Ponyboy stood up from his crouching position by the pump,"You were right to do that. I really shouldn't't have said those things. You know the soc that Johnny killed jumped him and scared him into carrying that switch." Pony said.
"That's how he got that scar on his cheek?" I asked.
"Yeah, it happened about a week and a half before you came."
"Oh I never knew that. I'm sure he doesn't like talking about that though." I said. Ponyboy nodded. We both looked up when we heard a whistle. I looked at Ponyboy and we both ran and hid in the entryway to the church's basement. A few seconds later Johnny came into view I let out a sigh and me and Pony stepped out.
"Hey Johnny what'ch got there?" I asked. Looking at the box of 'stuff' .
"'Lets go inside, Dally told us to stay in side." Johnny said and we walked in side.
I watched as Pony and Johnny started going through the stuff in the stuff box. Ponyboy pulled out a bottle,"Peroxide?" he said aloud then looked at Johnny,"Your not thinkin'." he trailed off.
"We have to cut our Pony your gonna bleach yours and I'm gonna wash all the grease out." Johnny said.
"Oh no you ain't cutting my hair." Pony said stepping back.
"Ponyboy its just hair It'll grow back." Johnny said.
"No." Pony said.
"Ponyboy Curtis let him do it." I snapped.
"No way." Pony said.
"Then let me do it." I said taking out my butterfly knife. (thats what Two bit has in the movie I know he has a switch in the book)
Ponyboy sighed seeing that he wasn't gonna get out of it,"Alright Sadie you do it." Ponyboy said. I flipped open my butterfly knife and walked over to him. Like my brother I had stolen my butterfly knife and I used it to show off. I kept it extra sharp and shined. I sliced through his hair. He let out a few hisses of pain. When I was finished Johnny did the peroxide. Then after letting Pony see his hair I cut Johnny's for him.
The next few day's seemed to take forever to go by. It was the same thing everyday. Wake up. Eat. Listen to Pony read gone with the wind. Watch Johnny stomp Pony in poker. Maybe read a little of gone with the wind to Pony and Johnny. Sit around. Go through the stuff box. Sit around some more. Eat again. Ok look more poker. See how long I can go with out breathing for no purpose but because I'm board. Nap. More poker. Reorganize stuff box. Eat. See how long I can go with out breathing but this time because Pony and Johnny are smoking and the smoke kills me. More Poker. More Gone with the wind. Sleep. Repeat. But then on night we woke earlier then usual and saw an amazing sun set. As I watched it every thing finally started going through my head. I wondered what Two bit was doing right now. What Steve though about this. When was Dally gonna come. But the question that bothered me most of all, What about Soda? What was going through his head as he worried about Pony? What was he doing right now? Did he worry about me? I was called out of the questions by Johnny,"Golly that was sure pretty."
"Yeah." I said.
"It's like the mist is what's pretty you know all gold and stuff. To bad it can't stay like that."
"Nature's first green is Gold,
Her hardest hue to hold,
Her Early leaves a flower,
But only so an hour,
Then leaf subsides to leaf,
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day,
Nothing gold can stay."
I looked at Ponyboy. The first thing going through my head was,"Who the hell am I with? I thought I was with Ponyboy and Johnny and Johnny and Poet lad."
"Hey thats what I meant. Where'd you learn that?" Johnny said. Then once more I was called back into Sadie Bell Matthews land. I started listening again when I heard that soc girl's name.
"Well maybe we're different." Johnny said.
"Shoot maybe they are." Pony said. Then we all walked back to the church.
I sat quietly on the ground next to the bench Johnny was asleep on reading Gone with the wind. I glanced up when I heard the church doors open and turned to see Dally hanging over Ponyboy,"Hey Blondie wake up." he said. I chuckled lightly putting the book down.
Pony sat up,"Hey Dal." he said.
"Hey Johnny rise and shine." Dally said as he kicked the bench,"Hey Sadie." he said as I stood up.
"Hey Dallas." I said. Then Pony and Johnny started shooting questions at Dally. Who said one at a time then handed Pony a piece of paper from Soda.
"Hey you guy's wanna get something to eat I'm starved." Dally said.
"Yeah sure let's get out of here." I said and we walked out to a car.
I was practical sitting on Pony's lap when we reached dairy queen,"Remind me never to get in a car with you EVER again." I said to Dally. He laughed and started telling us about how the we were gonna have it out with the soc's and that he started carrying an unloaded heater. Then he told us how the red head soc was a spy for them. Johnny looked deep in thought the whole time. Finally when dally stopped talking Johnny said,"We're going back we're gonna turn our selfs in."
Dally leaned forward and acted like he didn't hear him,"What?
"We're going back and we're gonna turn our selfs man it ain't fair for Darry and Soda to be worrying about Pony all the time, or for Two bit to be worrying about Sadie who didn't do anything and can easily get left out of it." Johnny said.
Dally shook his head,"No you're not going anywhere." he said as we pulled out of Dairy queen. The started going on about how he got us a hide out an how he didn't want Johnny to go to jail and get mean.
"What's going on?" Ponyboy said and I looked to see the church. On fire.
Oh my god it's the on fire. Anyways. Review. Next chapter will most likely be up soon.
