"So…" Two-Bit started. They were more than half way to Chris's house and the entire walk was silent. Two-Bit had the lead, then Christine and Johnny and then Ponyboy.
"You're going to Will Rogers High right?" asked Ponyboy, walking on Christine's other side trying to lighten the mood a bit. She nodded and smiled.
"We go there too, right Johnny?"
He offered a small smile. "Yeah. When is your first day?"
Christine stopped for a moment to scribble down 'Monday' before continuing on her path.
On the front porch, they told her they'd pick her up on Monday and show her around school. Christine waved goodbye and hobbled into the house.
Monday
Christine's POV
I waited outside for Johnny, Pony and Two-Bit to come and get me. Today was my first day of school and I was more than nervous. Soon, I saw them. They were running a race I guess and Ponyboy was winning. Two-Bit got here second and then Johnny.
"Hey, you ready?" asked Two-Bit after catching his breath. I nodded and grabbed my books. After we set out, Johnny quietly took my books. I looked at him. He wouldn't look at me though.
After school
I didn't have a class without one of them, and I liked that. I had a lot of classes with Johnny. I like that a lot. Well, um, I mean because he's really nice to me and he helps me a lot. My classes scattered the board, from Freshman level to Junior. I have only one Junior class though. A lot of my 10th grade classes I have with Johnny.
During lunch hour we walked to a convenience store and ate there. I just got a coke and no one really argued with me. I wouldn't be able to eat that food anyway. And I'm glad none of them brought up my episode at Ponyboy's house. I wouldn't want to tell them anyway. I'd probably be sent to a home somewhere and not see them again. I don't want that. Not after my sister left for college.
"You ok, Chris?" Ponyboy was looking at me, while drinking his Pepsi. I nodded and smiled. We were sitting outside by the store. I was on the sidewalk, next to Johnny on the right and Ponyboy on the left. Two-Bit was standing next to Johnny and leaning against the wall. He was looking at me now. I tried to smile as I scooted closer to Johnny, hoping they'd lay off. I was fine, I really was.
"We better be getting back. There's not much time left of our lunch hour," Johnny stated.
"yeah, lets head back," Ponyboy stood and help me up. We walked back, listening to Two-Bit's recent jokes and stories.
Well, thats it. Sorry its so short, but I felt bad for not updating. Actually, it was thanks to Outlook who reviewed recently and asked me if I was going to continue, so this is dedicated to her. Thanks a lot! Please review!!
