Soda's Story

I know this is really short but the other chapters are longer. And please be nice. This is my first fanfic.

My name is Sodapop Curtis. I'm eight years old and my best friend, Steve, is nine. I have two

brothers. My little brother's name is Ponyboy and he's six. My older brother's name is Darry and

he's twelve. Anyway, after school one day, Steve and I noticed Darry looking at some magazine

with a girl on the cover. "Whatcha looking at?" I asked him, trying to see over his shoulder. He

quickly slammed it closed. "Nothing," he said very smartly. "You're fibbing," I smiled innocently.

"Yeah," said Steve, "That ain't nothing." Then he quickly grabbed the magazine from Darry. Then he

gave a scream, jumped back, and dropped it on the ground. "Girls are icky!" Steve

yelled with a look of disgust on his face. Then I opened the magazine and when I saw some of the

pictures in it, I threw it on the ground too. "Eeew!" I screamed. "Girls!" Steve and I screamed

together. Darry started laughing at us. I frowned at him. "You won't always hate girls," said Darry,

smiling. "Me and Steve will always hate them!" I frowned again. "Okay," Darry laughed and

continued looking through his magazine. Steve and I just stomped away.
