U-Turn

by Bagels.fics

The Curtis's can't catch a break, especially Ponyboy. He has witnessed so much at a young age that it's a miracle he has survived. That's in question when a car accident threat looms over the Curtis' gang. How will they survive when the youngest greaser is fighting for his life? Who else was in the car accident with him? Will the both of them be okay?

7. Chapter 7

Chapter 7: Visiting graves

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I do not own "The Outsiders" or any of the Curtis' Gang. Sigh. The real owner of "The Outsiders" is my favorite author, the fabulous S.E. Hinton. I also do not make a profit from the stories that I write here on this site.

A/N: If you like it, love it, or even if you hate it, you know what to do. Tell me in a review. I would love it if you favorited, followed, and/or if you gave me (a) suggestion(s). Thank you. :)

Sodapop's POV

"Come on Ponyboy, just a drive, please," I pleaded with my stubborn, bullheaded little brother.

"No, Soda. I'm sorry, I just can't," he told me.

"Yes you can," I assured him feiecly. He just stared at me showing no sign of giving in.

"Fine. How about a compromise? I'll drive," I assured him. He contemplated my offer for a moment.

"Fine, Deal."

The car ride was a little better than last time, but I guess he trusts me. He didn't say much, but I had the radio on and he seemed a little less ridged. I hoped this was progress.

"Can you drop me off up here, Soda? I want to walk around. I'll find my own way home," Pony asked. I nodded and stopped the truck.

"Be home soon or else Darry'll skin you," I warned.

He smiled. "I know, don't worry."

Ponyboy's POV

I walked to Johnny and Dallas's grave. I needed time to clear my head.

I knelt down next to Dallas's simple gravestone.

"Hey Dallas." I didn't know what to say. I took a shuddering breath. "We miss you." I looked up and saw the sun was setting.

I moved on to Johnny's grave. "Hey, Johnnycakes. I miss you a lot. I can't believe it's been two years since you died. I stayed gold until the car accident. Now I'm scared to drive a car." I admitted. I heard a loud honk behind me, which made me jump, but then I realized it was just Two-Bit.

"Need a ride, Kiddo?" He shouted. I took a deep breathe and walked up to his car.

"No, I'm going to drive." He laughed and got out of the car.

"Whatever you say, Kid."

A/N: Most of you will say this was a forced, rushed ending, but this was planned and I like it. Thank you so much to everyone who's supported me the past 7 chapters.
