A/N- So, Chapter 3 is coming up pretty early just cause I'm bored. Lucky you guys, Ponyboy makes his appearance in this chapter!
Enjoy!
I do not own The Outsiders or any of it's characters.
Dream Tempist
As we entered the library, Noah wouldn't stop talking. I guess he was a bit excited but he wouldn't tell me his plan. That's the way he was lately, he acted so mysterious and I hated it. Seriously, I needed my best friend that would tell me anything back. Because this Noah was annoying me.
"Hey Dream, why don't you go find a book or something?" he asked.
I scoffed. Me? Reading? Okay, him trying to seem cooler I can take. Playing it off like we weren't friends, I could take. But telling me to go find a book? Did he bump his head or something?
First he wants to date my sister.
Now he wants me to go read.
Where is my best friend? Because he certainly wasn't here.
I complied anyway because I didn't want to hang around this guy any longer.
I wandered throughout the bookcases, looking for something that might peak my interests.
Gone With The Wind
Didn't look like something I wanted to read, but I remembered Jinx saying she wanted to read it.
Maybe I could do something nice. I took the book out of the bookcase just as some other guy reached for it. I looked up to the other guy.
He had bleach blonde hair and grayish green eyes and he was an inch or two shorter than me.
"Hey, um, would you mind if I borrow that book then you can afterward?" he asked, his voice had the slightest hint of a southern accent.
I raised an eyebrow. Did he really just ask that? I'd call him an idiot but he had about six books in his hand. He was probably smarter than me.
"Uh, no." I answered, walking ahead. He followed behind me "C'mon man, please."
I shook my head, just to be a jerk "No."
At that moment, Noah decided to come strutting into the aisle.
"Hey Dream, found a-" he saw the other guy and his face broke into a smile "Hey Pony, long time no see."
The Pony guy nodded "It's Noah, right?"
"Yeah, is there a problem here?"
"No, not at all." I answered, handing the book to Pony and heading for the entrance.
Noah followed me, a book in his hand about picking up women. You've got to be kidding me.
The Pony guy was also following "Hey, thanks. I'm Ponyboy Curtis. And you are?"
I didn't answer and kept on my way.
"That's Dream, he thinks he's too cool to talk to people." Noah said.
Alright, that does it.
I whirled around so fast I probably gave the Soc girl passing me whiplash.
"You've GOT to be kidding me. I'm the one who's too cool? Who here left his best friend at the movies to hang out with some dumb broad? Who here says he doesn't known his best friend when around other people. Certainly not me. Ever since you've started high school-"
The door was pushed open and knocked me down.
To make matters worse, I fell into a bin of books.
"Karma's a jerk." Noah muttered, exiting the library.
It was just me, Ponyboy, and the person who had entered.
"You alright?" he asked, holding out his hand to help me up. I took it gratefully, pulling myself to my feet. I looked in the doorway to see who had knocked me down, yet they were gone.
"Who was that?" I asked
"Some Soc girl, she just walked away." Ponyboy shrugged "So, what's with Noah and you?"
I shrugged "Eh, he's just been a jerk lately."
Ponyboy nodded "One minute I'm gonna go check this book out."
H e disappeared then came back a minute later.
"Let's go." He said an we exited the school.
"Need a ride?" I asked him. "My sister usually drivse me and a friend home."
"Um…sure." He nodded and followed me to Sarah's old, brown car.
"What took so long?" Sarah asked quite irritably. Ladies and gentlemen, my lovely sister.
A/N- Alright, so, no he does not owe Ponyboy yet. You'll see.
And I apologize for this chapter. It was sort of rushed (I was in school while writing it) but I ended up liking it quite a lot. I hope you feel the same.
I would like to thank my two reviewers ;) you know who you are
