After Soda finally gets back to work, Sam and I decide to go to my house and do our homework. I grab a Pepsi before I yell bye to Soda. Sam and I walk and talk about one of our final days as juniors at our high school. I look at the dirt as we walk through the lot. That's when I notice a blue mustang in front of us. I stop in my tracks and pull Sam back with me.
"What the heck Ponyboy!" Sam exclaims as I pull her back to where I am.
I point at the mustang after I sit my Pepsi and books on the ground. Sam puts her books next to mine and we both stare at the 4 Socs coming our way.
"Get behind me." I say to Sam.
"Pone, I can handle my own with-" She starts to say but I interrupt her.
"Get. Behind. Me. Now. Sam." I say with fierceness in my voice that has never been there before.
I am surprised as she gets behind me. I glare at the same soc that I beat up today.
"What the heck do you want?" I say with anger as I keep Sam behind my back.
Before the soc answers I whisper quietly to Sam, "Run. Now."
She looks at me. I feel her glare.
"Now Sam." I say ordering her.
I don't watch her run, but I can hear her feet hit the ground with every step she takes. No soc catches her and I let out a breath I was holding.
AN: I know, it's extremely short, but I wanted to leave it at a cliffy. Review please!
