Chapter One: Cold night
Two-bits POV
I sat at the Nightly Double with Ponyboy. He seemed awful quite, that's how he always was since Johnny and Dally's death. His eyes focused on the movie screen as if he was in another world, one of his own. I took a drink of the beer in my hand. Seeing my hand shake I wondered how many I had, but that thought soon slipped my head as I saw this greaser chick. I nudged Pony telling him I was going to see the chick.
"Hey doll face!" I yelled to this tall blonde chick. Boy, she had long legs. Man!
"Hey Jerk!" She called back.
"Ooo.. Feisty are we?" I yelled approaching her.
I felt a hand push me back I looked up to see a guy around twice the size of Darry. I didn't mess around with Darrel so I didn't plan to mess around with him, I thought. Youknow afterIthought about that thought after I thought that and I thought I shouldn't think anymore.
"Hey, you wanna back off from my girl." He said putting his arm around the blonde.
"Sure whatever, super dope." I said walking away. Mimicking a nickname which was once for Darry.
I sat down by Pony. He smirked.
"WHAT?" I questioned.
He shook his head and then turned back to the movie screen. I finished off the beer I was holding and when I looked up the credits were rolling to the last movie of the night. What a rip. I decided to drive home since it was getting colder everyday. I put the key in and turned it starting the car. I accidentlyput the car in reverse hitting a social'sconvertiable.
"Opps!" I hollered.I put it in drive, pushedon the gas heading home. Ponyboy sat beside me squirming.
"Whaddddyyyaa haavee ants..in.yyour..ppants?" I asked kind of slurring.
"Two-bit do you think you should drive?" Pony asked uncomfortably.
"Yeah, I only had a couple of beers... and only hit on one girl I am fine." I said grinningturning to look at him.
Pony looked me uncomfortably then looked back at the street. I drove on knowing I should follow Pony's advice, but heck I've ain't never been one for rules.
I pushed harder on the gas pedal thinking the speed limit said 85 not 55. I turned to Pony.
"Pony that chick was hot wasn't she?" I said grinning turning to face Pony.
"TWO-BIT!" Pony yelled I turned to see a vehicle I was about to hit head on.
I hit the brakes but the car wouldn't slow down. Oh no! I felt my whole body jerk forward and my heart stopped for a minute. I opened my eyes to see the damage the whole front of the car was destroyed I turned to see Pony eyes wide open in terror looking at the car we crashed into. I cranked my head to see how bad it was. My eyes opened wide and I felt myself cringe.
