I DO NOT OWN THE OUTSIDERS OR THE CHARACTERS! ONLY BRIANNA!
Ponyboys P.O.V.
I know that Johnny wants his parents to care. That he wants to be loved by more than the gang. I just wish he knew that his parents are the worthless ones. not him.
I looked up from the dinner table as we were all eating. Everyone usually eats over and even sleeps over. But there always welcome here. Especially Johnny and Brianna. Since they don't have it good at home. I saw that Johnny was kinda staring at Brianna as she was laughing and talking with Soda. I know that he likes her, he hasn't told me but i think he knows i know too. Its hard to tell if she likes him. at times it really seems like it. But they have a brother/sister relationship so its normal most of the time she hugs him, or kisses his cheek. She does that to all of us. As a sister of course. Shes always been good at hiding things, she had to grow up fibbing especially with her parents. they abuse her. Like johnnys parents. pretty badly might i add. But none of us really like talking about it. She and Johnny are the last people on earth that deserve that! Darry interrupted my thoughts.
" hey pony, you got homework?"
"No. I did it in school." i just nodded. sometimes i feel unappreciated. especially by darry its like he doesn't even want me here. the only thing keeping me from running away is soda and bri and I guess I'll stay a while.
' hey wheres Dally?" Brianna asked.
" he said he was getting some action. probably at Bucks party." Steve said.
" um. i think I'm just gonna head to bed. see you guys." i said as i got up and put my plate away.
"night" i heard from just about everyone.
" goodnight Pony! Sweet dreams!" i smiled at Brianna. Shes always the one to brighten someones day.
Johnnys P.O.V.
sometimes i catch myself staring. i just hope she doesn't notice. I cant help it. She looked at me I panicked an quickly looked away.
"I'm gonna head home, or take a walk." I said remembering what happened before i got here.
" oh! ill come with you. I'm gonna stay at the lot tonight." bri said! yes.
" your sure Brianna? always room for you here. No need to sleep there." Darry offered her.
" ya Dar I'm fine! ill see you guys tomorrow!" she said and started walking. I said bye quietly and walked behind her.
"are you alright johnnycake? your cheek looks pretty bad."she said caring like and looking at my face.
" ya I'm fine. not like I'm not use to it , you know?" Why would i say that? of course she knows!
" yup. You going home tonight Johnny?"
"nah. You mind if i stay in the lot too?" i asked hoping she wont mind.
" No of course not. To tell you the truth, I like it much better when you stay with me. Makes me feel safer." she smiled at me. i smiled back.
"good cause even if you said no I would still go!" we laughed. I love her laugh! its so unique. its not graceful or quiet. only if its a giggle. but shes always laughing or smiling and i love it! we talked and laughed the whole way to lot, and just walking.I don't really get nervous around her since i am everyday and shes my best friend. We finally got to the lot when she poked me and said" YOUR IT!" we laughed as i tried to catch her! we were just running when i caught her we both fell and were laughing so hard! apparently to loud because we heard a man yell" keep it down!" but that just made us laugh harder. we fell next to each other. slowly stopping. we just lied down in the grass, our laughter dieing down, and just staring at the sky.
" its so pretty out tonight." she said staring at the stars.'like you' i thought.
" ya. If only it were like this every night." i sighed.
" Maybe it is. And we just don't look close enough. like boys and their selfishness. Girls are like apples on a tree. they settle for the ones that fell off and are all rotten. But sooner or later, that daring, adventurous, perfect guy will know that all the good apples are at the top. he'll climb up just to get it. all the good apples are the top of the tree. But they just don't know it yet. My guys still out there. Maybe he'll climb that tree soon. ' she giggled.i just stared. i chuckled the slightest bit.
" Brianna, you still remain a mystery to me." we laughed.
"good!" we laughed. I could tell that she was falling asleep. And soon, she was sound asleep peacefully breathing in and out. i didn't want to disturb her but she looked freezing, jacket-less and with a short sleeve shirt. I took of my jacket and put it on her. I'll be fine, i just don't want her to get stirred and slightly woke up.
"johnny?" she whispered.
"yes. its me, its alright. go back to sleep. night." i whispered. she snuggled up with my jacket and in a ball by me. I was about asleep when i hear a quiet
"sweet dreams johnnycake." i smiled as i peacefully drifted into a deep sleep.
