I was sitting on my beat up old couch listening to Claire go on and on about Soda. My other sister Lilith came in and sat next to me. She is 18, has blonde hair like my fake mom, dark brown eyes the color of chocolate, and wore a dark red shirt with a blue madras skirt.
" He is the cutest thing ever and even has the best smile too."
" I heard he has a older brother and a younger one the same age as you Val."
" I know."
I got up and left. I didn't want to hear it. I went to the lot and sat down, looking up at the stars. The same thought crossed my mind, what if i was related to Darry, Soda, And Ponyboy. That didn't last too long because Johnny and Pony came along. Johnny looked a little shaken up.
" Everything okay?"
" ran into some socs." Johnny explained as he sat down.
Ponyboy started a fire and threw sticks into it. Johnny said something that scared me and Pony both.
" Johnny don't say that." Pony said with a hint of worry in his voice as he held Johnny.
" There has to be a place without greasers and socs."
" In the country."
Then we all drifted off to sleep.
I felt something stir beside me and saw Johnny waking up Ponyboy.
" You better be getting home. I'll stay out here, my parents don't care."
" Come to my house if you get cold."
Me and Pony rushed home parting in the middle. I walked right into my house and rushed past my fake dad but he grabbed me by the arm.
" Where have you been!?"
" I asleep in the lot."
" Do you know what time it is!"
" Just calm down. I'm sorry that i'm late."
He threw me into the wall knocking the wind out of me. I layed there on the hard floor, not getting up because I knew I would enter a world of hurt.
