A/N Okay so here's chapter two sorry if its kind of short I hope you like it =) R.I.P Patrick Swayze you will be missed
Disclaimer: I don't own the outsiders obviously
I slowly open my eyes and looked around only to find a empty park. "Johnny? Johnnycade?" My voice rang out strong and clear it didn't feel sore or scratchy like I figured it would. "Johnny?" I called out louder this time even though it was pointless I mean hes obviously not here. Johnny wouldn't just leave me here alone. I scrambled to my feet looking around. What if the Socs took him? Yea they took him and now there holding him against his will and lock him in a cage and make him dance for his food for their own sick amusement. Sorry sometimes my imaginations a little wild, I guess the gangs right I do read to much. I walk in a small circle taking in the whole park. I noticed something else I'm dry, completely dry. I'm not even a little damp. Oh my god I can't believe I imagined getting jumped by Socs. I must of fell asleep here and dreamed the whole thing up. I mean what other explanation can there be? And Johnny must of went to tell Darry and Soda that I'm fine yea that's it. Man, I really had myself scared there for a minute. I need to get home if Darry was mad last night hes probably furious now. I still can't believe he hit me. I know I'll just ignore him let him yell and rant all he wants as long as he don't hit me again everything will be fine. I started to walk home. I can see the sun start to rise in the horizon. Crap! Crap crap crap Darry's really gonna kill me now. I was out practically the whole night thankfully its not a school night, or I would really be dead. When I turn the corner to my house I see flashing lights. Perfect Darry called the cops just freaking perfect. Great Johnny you abandoned me alone at the park for know good reason thanks a lot best buddy. I picked up my pace but when I got closer I couldn't believe what I saw Darry was crying. Yes crying there were tears streaming down his face. I've never seen Darry cry I mean ever not even when mom and dad died and he would only cry for one person. Sodapop. Oh god no please say nothing happened to soda. I started to run as fast I my legs would carry me. I skidded to a stop in front of the house and I almost jumped with joy when I saw soda standing their seemingly unharmed, but something was defiantly wrong. "Soda?" I walked closer the pain in his eyes was almost unbearable for me to look at. "Sodapop what happened? Soda?" he seemed to look right through me. I went to put my hand on his shoulder and grabbed nothing but air. Man, my aim is off to miss his shoulder. I turned to Darry. "I know your probably extremely mad at me right now, just tell me whats happening?" Darry walked toward me and put his arms out like he was gonna hug me. I hesitantly walked into his embrace when I literally fell through him I know how stupid that sounds but I swear I went through him. I turned to see Darry and Soda in a tight embrace. I walked past them and into the house. I heard the police cars drive away I looked around the living room and to my relief seen the whole gang there. Nobody looked up when I walked into the room. You can probably see how loved I'm feeling right about now. I took in each one of their faces for once Two-bits eyes weren't laughing they were...sad. Which I never seen in Two-bits eyes, and Dally's already bitter face is even more bitter with a hint of something else there. I can't quite put my finger on what it is. Despair?
Then theirs Johnny his eyes are bloodshot it looks like hes been crying for awhile. I looked at Steve he looked like he was trying to hold back tears which is weird real weird. "Hey guys who died?" I asked lightly. None of them even acknowledged my existents. "It would be really nice if someone would just tell me whats going on" Again they didn't answer. Then Steve spoke up. "Dally you hunting down the Socs ain't gonna do know good and u know it all it will do is get u thrown in the state pent for murder" Dally clenched his jaw and looked like he was gonna beat Steve down, hasn't Steve learned yet know one tells Dallas Winston what to do. "Dal don't, just don't." I heard Johnny's quiet voice speak up. Know one besides Johnnycade that is. I wish someone would tell me whats going on because to tell you the truth i'm pretty scared but i'm starting to get pretty angry too. Why was everyone ignoring me. Why won't they tell me whats going on. "Come on guys what happened was one of you jumped by Socs or something." I heard Darry and Soda walk back in the house. Johnny started to whimper softly I walked over to him. "Hey Johnnycade don't cry" Tears started to stream down his face. I went to put my hand on his shoulder in a comforting way like I did to Soda and I felt nothing but air. I stared at my hand. I can only lie to myself for so long before I need to face the truth. Somethings defiently wrong alright...wrong with me.
