Chapter 20

Soda's POV

I could tell that Angel didn't sleep the night before because she fell asleep holding my hand. Darry tried to move her but she just held on tighter. Darry told me that she was so scared and that her and Mason got into a big fight and she broke it off with him but he wouldn't tell me why but she will tell us when she's ready.

"Soda can I come in?" Mason asked

"Sure why not as long as you don't wake Angel."

"How is she?" he asked me as Darry walked in I could tell that he was mad at him for doing whatever it was to Angel.

A few weeks later

I was finally in my own room. I went to lay down when I heard Angel crying so being the brother I was I went to see what was going on.

"Angel what is wrong." I asked her trying to clam her down.

"It's Pony." Was all she said before she cried even harder.

"What about him?" I asked confused.

"Cherry called and said that he was just shot and killed by one of Randy's old friends." She said as I held her and thought oh no not my little brother.

Angels POV
I told Soda what happen to Pony and he told the rest of the gang. I didn't want to do anything until Soda and Darry forced me to go to the movies with Two-bit and Charlie.

Flashback

Pony and I were sitting at the table a few weeks after I got out of the hospital the first time and we were playing games. "Angel I bet that you never heard of a Mickey Mouse and goofy mixed." Pony said "sure I have I have even seen one." "How have you seen it?" he asked "it Just walked though the door." I said as I pointed to Two-bit who gave us a funny look when we both stated to laugh.

End flash back

"Angel earth to Angel." Two-bit said trying to get my attention then bam it hit me he gave he a kiss in front of his brother.

"what?' I asked

"Can I get you any thing?" he asked

"Can I get some pop and a candy bar?" I asked

"Sure." He said as he left me with Charlie who took off his coat and gave it to me to wear.

Charlie's POV
I could tell that something was wrong with Angel but I couldn't ell what. I mean yes she has lost her mom, dad and now Pony she thought she lost me but she didn't.

"Angel come here." I said as I opened my arms for her.

"Charlie I don't know what to do because I was getting close to Pony and now he's gone. I'm afraid to get close to anyone because I think I might lose them." She said lying her head on my shoulder and cried until Two-bit took her so I could go to the bathroom.

When I came back from the bathroom Angel and Two-bit were gone. So I went to look for them to find them at the dingo eating some fries and sharing a shake.

Two-bits POV

Angel and I left for the dingo after Charlie went for the bathroom because she couldn't stand the drive-in Pony loved movies and so does she but she could stand being there at least not yet.

"Two-bit promise me that you'll never leave me if I start to get close to you." She said

"You know I never would leave you like that." I said as we left to go back to her house.

" Two-bit I love you." She said to me as I walked her to the door.
