*** Ok here's chapter 12. Addie's POV ***
Looking up into the night sky I wondered what life was going to be like. I wondered what and where I would be if Dad hadn't died. I heard a car follow slowly behind me. My heart quickened as well as my feet.
"Hey there greasette. Do... do ya wanna come for a ride. It would be fun." A voice said behind me.
I was so close to home I could see it. I knew I couldn't out run them so I relaxed my pace, praying that they would leave me alone.
"Hey greasette don't ya want to come?" I heard car doors shut.
Turning around I found five very drunk socs leering at me. Stepping back away from them I tripped on a loose piece of pavement. Falling, I was surrounded by the boys. With a motion of a head two of the guys grabbed my arms pulling me to my feet. The lead man stepped up in front of me with a grin on his face. Cocking his arm he swung at me, hitting me right in the gut. Doubling over I gasped for breath. He then punched in the face for good measures.
"Get off her now." A voice demanded from behind them.
The boys stopped laughing and turned around to face five angry football players. The soc that had been hitting me laughed before turning back to hit me once again. My vision blurred for a moment as I stood there dazed.
"I told you to get off her and I mean now." The angry voice said.
The two guys holding me in place saw the danger in sticking around. Backing up they dropped me and ran for their lives along with two of their buddies. Being the drunken idiot he was the leader stood there ready for anything or so he thought.
"I warned ya buddy." I heard a fight break out in front of me. "If you ever mess with Addie Mitchell again I will hunt you down, do you understand me? Now get your sorry carcass out of here." I heard my rescuer say.
"Addie are you alright?" He asked. "Pat, do you know where the Curtis house is?" He added.
"Yeah Jason, it's a couple blocks from here. We should get her home." Pat answered.
"Jason..." I began to cry. "I was so scared." I couldn't believe I was saying this. I never cried.
"Shhh... Addie you're ok now." I looked up at the five. "These are my friends; George, Eli, Pat O., and Pat D." Jason said. "Let's get you home ok?" he added.
Jason gently picked me up and along with his friends we headed towards my house. George walked ahead of us and opened the gate. Before we could reach the front porch Darry was out the door.
"What happened to her?" He asked looking from me to Jason and his friends. "Is she ok?"
"She was attacked by a couple of drunken soc..." Jason started to say.
"Bring her inside." Darry interrupted holding the door open.
Jason carried me into the house where all the others were. "What happened to Addie?" Soda asked for everyone.
"She got jumped." Eli replied as Jason lied me down on my bed.
"Alright guys lets give Addie breathing room." Dally spoke up pushing everyone out except Jason.
As the door closed Jason turned back to me. Brushing a stray piece of hair out of my face he pulled the covers up to my chin.
"I'll be there to protect ya Addie. Me and my friends will look out for ya ok?" I nodded. "Besides I don't think we could survive without ya." He added smiling. "... Get some rest, I'll see ya tomorrow ok?"
With that Jason got up and walked to the door. Turning back he smiled. "Goodnight Addie." He whispered opening the door he slipped out and closed the door behind him. Smiling and feeling safe, I turned over and fell asleep.
