I own nothing except for Leah.
Johny's POV.
I looked up at Dallas Winston aka Dally, and the girl he was carrying to the Curtis's house. We found her in the lot a minute ago, and according to Dally she was sick. She looked like she was, with her flushed face and raspy breathing. Her legs hung over Dally's arms and her dark blonde hair fell into her face. She was real cute, maybe not drop dead gorgeous, but still cute and kinda pretty. I was jolted out my thoughts though when I heard Ponyboy speak. "Hey do you guys think she is Soc or Grease?" he asked. I peered at her, she was wearing blue jeans and a black silk t-shirt. For some reason I automatically knew she wasn't a Soc. "It's hard to tell, maybe she is Middle-class," I suggested. Dally looked down at the girl he was holding " Well whatever she is ,we'll find out when she wakes up," he said.
We reached the Curtis's house just then. Ponyboy opened the door and motioned for me and Dally to come in. "Darry? Sodapop? are you guys home?" he called. Darry came in from the kitchen. "Of course we are here Ponyboy, what do you......." Darry's words were cut short when he saw the figure in Dally's arms. "Ummm guys? who is that?", he asked. Dally shrugged. "I don't know your guess is as good as mine." "We found her in the lot," Ponyboy added. I decided to put some input so I added "Yeah and she's sick." Then Dally put the girl down on the couch and stood back. Darry went over to her and placed a hand on her forehead. I heard him mutter something. "Well she's sick all right, I'll go get the thermometer," he said. Right as he left Sodapop walked in. "Who's that?", he asked eyeing the couch. This time Ponyboy told the whole story. After he was done Sodapop nodded. "So Dally carried her here, huh?" he asked grinning widely. Dally just looked at Soda and growled.
Before he could start anything Darry came back with the thermoneter. He walked over to the couch and put it in the girl's mouth. Even though it only took about two minutes it seemed like forever. When the thermometer was done Soda walked over to the couch and took it out of her mouth. He whistled softly. "103", he announced. Just then I saw Darry go into "responsible adult" mode. "Ok Dally take her into my room, Soda go get the medicine from the cabinet and a spoon, Johny you can go grab some cool washclothes." He was about to get to Ponyboy when Ponyboy ran out the door. "Ponyboy Curtis where the hell are you going" Darry yelled. "I'll be right back" Ponyboy called out. "He better be back soon, Darry said, I'm gonna need his help as well." Because I couldn't think of anything to say, I went into the kitchen for the washclothes like Darry told me. I found a couple in the drawer, ran them under the cold water and wrung them out. I walked out of the kitchen and went into Darry's room. The girl was lying in his bed with the sheets covering her. Soda walked in with the medicine and spoon. "Here you are Darry" he said. Darry took the medicine and poured some into the spoon. He tilted the girls head back and poured it into her mouth.
Then we all heard the door open and Ponyboy walked in. "Darry I'm really
sorry I did that,but I had to go back to the lot for a minute." "Why did
you have to go to the lot Ponyboy?" Darry asked cooly. Ponyboy motioned
to the beatup looking suitcase next to him. "I ran back to get her stuff"
he explained. Before Darry could thank or punish him we all heard a soft
voice. "Thankyou" It came from the bed. I quickly looked and was surprised
to see the girl awake her eyes wide open. "Uhhhh no problem, Ponyboy replied,
ummmm who are you?" The girl coughed some and then said "My name is Leah",
she said. "Hi Leah, I'm Ponyboy," Ponyboy told her. She just nodded. "You
should probably go to sleep, you are pretty sick." Darry told her. "I figured,
but before I go to sleep I need to know the rest of you guys names." Leah
told us. She looked really tired though, and I could tell it was taking
a lot of effort for her to talk. "Why do you need to know our names?" Soda
asked. "Because if I don't know the names of the four good looking guys
in front of me I won't be able to sleep all night." Leah replied with a
tiny grin. I blushed a little. It wasn't everyday that a cute girl told
me she thought I was good looking. "Shoot kid are you sure you're not just
delirious?" Dally asked. Sodapop looked amused and Darry and Ponyboy looked
a little shocked. "Please?" Leah asked. "I'm Sodapop" Soda piped up. "
I'm Darry," Darry told her. "Johny" I said quietly. Leah looked expectantly
at Dally. He sighed. "Dally,"he said quickly and then looked away. "Okay
well it's nice to meet y'all, I guess I should go to sleep now," Leah said
softly. Her eyes started to close, but before they did I saw a glimpse
of their color. They were bright green.
A/N ok that's chapter two. Thanx for all the reviews and keep them up.
Next chapter Leah will meet Two-Bit and Steve.
I think I'll make her better in chapter three. Sort of do something
like *three days later*, but I'm not sure yet.
