Chapter 3: Johnny Cade

"It's nice to meet you, Johnny Cade." I said as I shock his hand and smiled at him.

"Wow Jenny, whats a Soc like you in these parts for?" Asked Sopapop.

"Well, I'm staying here with my Aunt Tammy. Trying new things, you could say." I said smiling. They all looked at me funny but I just kept smiling.

"Of all the places in Tulsa, Oklahoma why here?" Ponyboy asked.

"Well, I wanted to see what the sunsets look like from this side." I said looking at Ponyboy. He stared at me and I knew he would. I remember everyday of last year while I waited for my ride to pick me up from school after my after school programs Ponyboy would be watching the sunsets on the school yard. Ponyboy then smiled at me.

"Who was the guy, you know, the one that hurt you?" Johnny asked softly. I just stared at him. I didn't notice that I was until I saw that he looked a little uncomfortable.

"Oh, that was Tommy. We just broke up. He wasn't taking it to well." I said folding my arms.

"He really hurt you bad." Two-Bit said as he lifted my sleeve. There was a big bruise on my shoulder. "Why don't you come over to Ponyboy and Sodapop's house? There older brother Darry will put some ice on it." Two-Bit said as he put my sleeve back down.

"Yeah, Okay. My aunt doesn't believe in ice anyway."
