Chapter 4: Stay Gold
Disclaimer: S E Hinton owns all the characters from the outsiders I only own my own creation Zoey and my best friend owns Brooklyn so go read her story go get em.
Two-bit drove to the graveyard in an uncomfortable and serious silence. So serious that I didn't even try to break it for the fear that Two-bit would go even more out of character. The look on his face was just about out of character to be impossible to believe if you weren't in the car with us. His face held a look of concern.
I decided that I had to break the silence so I said "Two-bit how bout we swing by the house and go pick up a jacket for me and maybe go pick up brooklyn."
"Sure Pony Brook probably wants to go and her being there will help you." he said as he did a u turn in the middle of the intersection earning a couple honks from the drivers around us. When Two-bit agreed to go pick up Brook up Zoey seemed relieved that it would help me while I'm there
We continued the drive talking and laughing the whole way. Two-bit seemed more relaxed now that he knew that Brook was going. When we got to our house I ran inside to grab a jacket to my surprise Brooklyn was sitting on the couch watching Mickey Mouse.
"Hey Brook" I called when I ran into the living room to grab my jacket.
"Hey Ponyboy what are you and Two-bit up to today?" she asked me cocking an eyebrow just like her little brother.
"Going to the graves" I said cursing myself as my voice cracked on the word graves. " Do you want to come with us" I asked.
"Sure"
"Let's go"
We walked out to the car and on the way I popped my collar and lit up a cigarette.
