Chapter 6 (please review good or bad when you're done reading. Thanks)
It's still dark outside. The moon is only a crescent, and it's real hard to see. I get out of bed silently; I don't want Soda to wake up. He'd be really disappointed in me if he knew what it was I had to do.
I tip-toe out of the room, stopping to pick up my bag. I glance at the clock on my way out. One a.m.
I walk up the road about a block and turn left. Kayla's already there, her hair is up because the wind is so strong and she's sitting there, waiting? No, not waiting. I didn't ever tell her I was coming. I would have, but when Two-bit found out about the Marijuana, he started treating me like a two-year-old. If I talk to anyone that's been in trouble for ANYTHING, he threatens bodily harm not just to me, but to who ever it is I'm trying to talk to. Darry told him to do that.
No, she didn't know I was coming. And yet, there she sat, ready for a night out. "Kayla? Kayla, what are you doing out here?" She glares at me for only a second, than says, "So, what, you're suddenly allowed to see me now? Is that it?"
Someone walks up to her, puts his arm around her, kisses her soft, red lips. She smiles the way she used to smile when I kissed her.
"Are you ready, baby?" the strange man asks her. She nods and they walk away, together, without me. Because I'm not supposed to be here at all. I'm supposed to be at home, grounded.
