The story thus far:
Skye Carson miscarried the day she met the outsiders. She went back to her boyfriend and her bad reputation as sex kitten. Luckily Skye was saved by Dally. Dally took her to the stables where Skye discovers he's stolen her heart.
"You know, you aren't as mean as you look." I cocked my head at Dallas and immediately regretted my words when he turned to send me a frosty glare.
"And you aren't as tough as you look" Dally bent to whisper in my ear. His nearness made my heart pound faster and I slowed on my way to my house.
My breath whooshed out of me as I shoved Dallas behind me.
My house loomed over us, big and imposing. A cool breeze blew, making me shiver despite Dally's jacket.
"Well aren't you two a cute couple?" Ace smiled from my doorstep. He looked drunk and I doubted he'd slept since last night. I felt Dallas tense behind me as he noticed something that I had not.
Two kids were to the right of Ace, not quite shivering but they're eyes were big. I recognized Ponyboy right off the bat, his face was pale and stretched. The other kid had big dark eyes and he looked sick with fear. I watched as his hands trembled.
Ace held the gun in his hand loosely keeping it ever so gently under Ponyboy's chin. I heard the other boy whimper as Ace smiled at me.
"Bastard! I'll kill you!" Dally roared, his face an ugly mask of hate. The muscles in his arms tensed nervously and his eyes held fear.
"Don't come a step closer Winston" Ace jammed the gun in Ponyboy until the boy had to tilt his head so he could breath.
"Ponyboy!" I cried, breaking from my frozen state, "What do you want Ace? You want me? You can have me, alright. Just let the kids go."
Ace heaved to the side, a drunken mess. His eyes were bloodshot and although he was still handsome, the very sight of him now disgusted me.
"I loved you, kitten, for a little while" Ace told me, not letting go of the gun, "I didn't know you were pregnant. WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GO?"
I began to approach slowly and felt Dallas beside me, backing me up.
"You never loved me, Ace. You loved the sex." When he didn't deny it I went on, "Please..calm down, let the kids go" I tried to keep my voice low and calm but it trembled and cracked.
I saw the dark haired kid nod almost imperceptibly at Dally as I took another halting step towards Ace.
"I want you over here. Now." Ace shouted, his eyes darted nervously back and forth. But no one was outside at 6 in the morning. I jumped at the volume of his voice and watched his trigger finger tighten at my sudden movement.
"put the gun down Ace." I said inching towards him, feeling my knees shake.
When I reached him Ace turned towards me.
I heard the loud blast of a gun as Johnny sprang for Ace, I sprang for Pony and Dallas raced for all of us.
Then I saw Ace, Johnny and Ponyboy fall. I prayed none of them were hurt. But sometimes.....even prayers aren't enough.
A/n Thanks for the reviews guys. This chapter was dinky, I'm sorry. I'll be updating soon though! Keep reading!
