Chapter five

I walked home by myself because Pony had track after school and I had no idea where to find the other two so I just walked by myself. It took me a while to realise that a red mustang was following me. I had heard of what the Socs could do and they would have a mustang so I started to freak out. I started walking a little faster and just hoped that they wouldn't do anything for the next ten minutes because that was how long it was going to take me to walk home. My hope was crushed as the car stopped and four guys piled out of the car. I started to run and so did they. One of the guys grabbed my bag and yanked me back. I was so scared, I wanted them to leave me alone.

"Why hello there, Tia! Heard so much about you!" I had no idea who this guy was but I think he may have been in my class. He snaked his arm around my waist while the other guys made a circle around us. I was so scared, I couldn't even speak. I didn't want to go through this again.

"So if you'll just hop into the car now, Tia. We can change you from a greaser to a soc" The guy started pulling me over to the car. I shook my head and stood still.

"Believe me, you do not want to fight us" The guy whispered into my ear, tightening his grip around my waist. I was scared shitless but I did not want to go through it all again.

"So come on, let's go for a ride" I still tried to stand still, that was until I got a punch in the face. Then I started crying and the guy picked me up by the waist and tried to shove me into his car.

"Hey! Let go of her!" It was Two-Bit! I was so glad! Two-Bit, Dally and Steve all came running over. They were outnumbered but I had learnt a couple of things back at home. They all picked a guy while the one holding me still kept on trying to force me into the car. I tried to wrestle out of his grip but it was too strong so I bit his hand real hard so he had to let me go. I then turned around and kicked him where it would hurt the most. He howled in pain,

"You little bitch!" He then pushed me into the front seat of the car and sat on top of me, "I'm going to get what I want so don't try to fight it!" He then brought something down on my head real hard and my vision was blurred then finally everything turned black.

When I finally awoke I was lying down on a couch somewhere. I looked around, trying to figure out the blurred pictures.

"Tia, are you alright?" It was Mom. I could tell she had been crying.

"Mom?" Then a sharp pain in my head came back with all the memories. I then started to cry myself and I felt arms go around me. They weren't Mom's arms though, I could tell her hug apart from anybody else's. I didn't care who was giving me a hug; I was so scared I just needed one.

"We're sorry, Tia. We never realised you were going to walk home by yourself. We're real sorry" It was Soda who was hugging me and saying sorry. I would have said it wasn't their fault but I was crying too much to make out even one word. When I finally calmed down a little I sat up and looked at Mom. She seemed real upset,

"It was just like at home with him, Mom. I was so scared!" Mom nodded just as the phone rang.

"I'll get that" Mom left the room to go answer the phone.

"We're real sorry, Tia"

"It wasn't your fault, don't worry" I smiled weakly at Soda and Two-Bit.

"Tia! It's for you" I frowned but got up and went over to the phone.

"Hello?"

"Tia? Hey it's Mary!" Mary was my only friend back home.

"Mary! Hey!"

"Sorry I can't talk for long, but I just rang to warn you"

"Warn me? About what?" I was starting to get worried.

"Paul is looking for you. I don't know if he knows where you are but I thought I would just warn you"

"Oh, thanks Mary. Got to go, bye" I then hung up the phone. Mom looked at me,

"Paul's looking for me" I couldn't handle this, everything was going wrong at once! Soda and Two-Bit walked into the room.

"Tia, are you alright? You look a bit pale" Soda commented gently.

"I think she needs to be left alone sorry guys. She's got a lot to deal with at the moment" They nodded,

"Just come over when you feel up to it ok?" Soda looked real worried. I nodded slowly. After they left I collapsed onto the couch.

"He can't find me, can he?"

"He could, Tia. Just keep around all the guys and you will be alright ok?" I nodded,

"I'm going to be now ok, Mom? Good night"

"Night Tia, I love you" I nodded, love wasn't going to stop me. Not tonight. Tonight was going to be the night when I finally did it. I walked up to my room and lay down for a little while, crying and thinking too much until I finally decided I had had enough. I pulled the knife out from under my bed. I started with my arms, feeling my problems flowing freely with the blood. I then dragged the knife along my vein, crying and laughing at the same time. It would all be gone soon, all gone! There was a knock on the door and Mom walked in.

"Tia! What-" Mom grabbed the knife out of my hand and threw it out the window! "Oh my god, what do-" Mom was crying and I felt bad but she ruined it all!

"Get out! LEAVE ME ALONE! GO AWAY! I HATE THIS!" There was a knock on the door but we just ignored it. Mom went to the phone but I fought her,

"DON'T! Please Mom!" Mom just shook me off and dialled the number. There was so much blood, so much blood and Mom was crying and it was awful. The door opened and Darry came in followed by Soda. I fell to the ground, giving up. No one was going to let me do it, they didn't have to go through what I had to, none of them understood!

"Oh my gosh! What's happened!" Soda asked looking at the blood and me on the ground crying and Mom crying into the phone.

"GO AWAY!" I yelled at them, I didn't want them here! I didn't want to be here! Soda then realised where all the blood was coming from and all I wanted to do was crawl away and hide. He didn't look at me with pity though, it was alarm and he just held me, rocking me back and forth.

"I'm sorry," I kept on saying over and over. Things were getting so screwed up. Soon I heard the ambulance arrive but that's all I remembered before the blackness took over.

A/N: Hope that wasn't too dramatic
