Hey, sorry I didn't update yesterday but my dad was on the internet and I don't think that I can update until Monday because my cousin, friend and step-cousin are coming over.
After the Socs go out, Two-Bit let and cigarette and put on a cool face. Johnny and I also put on are our toughest, coolest face and stood near Two-Bit. The four Socs were out of the car and facing us. One was more out front than the other three. He was taller than me but which of them weren't and he had dirty blond hair. None of the four were very built but nether were me and Johnny they were mostly tall and kinda skinny but they all had a slight built. One of the three back-up guys was dark brown headed with a blue Mustang shirt one. The other two were wearing solid color shirts one was a royal blue and the other a green. The green shirt color guy had dirty blond hair, while the other had a light blond hair color.
"Well, well, well. What do we have here? Two greasers and a wanta be football player" as the one in front and his group laughed and you would have thought they were watching the funniest movie of all time.
"I think that you and your hyenas might want to be on your way before you get insulted." Two-Bit always smarted off to people, even cops. He always told me that he was just bighting up there dual lives.
"You better watch your mouth greaser or you'll get hurt and we don't want that now do we." The green shirt guy decided to speak up for the first time. I so tired of them and if we don't hurry we're go"ing to miss the start of the movie.
"You better watch it your on the wrong side of town." Johnny never spoke out against Socs and if they said anything else then I was going to speak up, if Johnny could do it so could I.
"Being brave now are we?" the blue shirt guy asked us as the rest of the guys busted out laughing. I thought that we deserved a good laugh too.
"So how are those gorilla cookies?" I asked them in a serious tone and everyone including Johnny and Two-Bit looked at me.
"What cookies grease?" the Mustang shirt guy asked, as everyone still starred at me like I was crazy. Maybe I am. Who cares?
"Well I hear that a cookie company used your faces for an imprint for new gorilla themed cookies. But they scared the little kids so they gave them you guys. Since not even the parents of the scared kids would eat them because every time they looked at them they puke." Two-Bit and Johnny were laughing their faces off and I joined them. I took a closer look at the socs, I thought I saw them somewhere before.
"We will see you at practice." The same guy who a questioned about the cookies told me. Now I knew who they were they were four members of the high school football team. What were there name, I know I saw their names and faces in the school paper.
"Come on you guys, Mike, Jake, Jared, lets leave these greaser to do what there good at."
"What's that Dalton?" The green shirt kid asked which I now remembered his name, Mike Henderson. The one that was wearing the red shirt name is Jake Moore and the Mustang shirt's name is Jared Johnson. The one who was standing out in front was Dalton Adams.
"Nothing"
"Yea you'll wish it was nothing, if you don't get out of here." Two-Bit told them and they went and hopped in their car and drove off. We started off back toward the drive-in. When Two-Bit spoke up.
"Wow nice come backs guys." I thought that he was just joking with us trying to make us feel dumb.
"haha funny Two-Bit"
"Pony I am being honest those were some pretty good come backs. I like the whole gorilla cookie thing that was cleaver."
"Thanks" me and Johnny replied in a perfect harmony. We snuck in the movie like we always did and took a set since we were without a car. Johnny and I were watching the movie, while Two-Bit was talking to some blond chick. The girl must have not wanted any part of Two-Bit because he came back and joined us. Near the end of the movie Dally came and sat down beside Two-Bit.
"Hey guys."
"Hey Dal." Me and Johnny answered him.
"So what have ya'll been doin' tonight." Before me and Johnny could answer him Two-Bit told him all about how we told off the socs.
"Really, good for you two. That's one way to tell them off." He grinned at me and Johnny and we smiled back because Dally hardly ever grins. The stars were out and I knew that I had to get home or Darry would have a fit.
"Hey you guys I goin' head home."
"I'll come with ya'" Johnny always walks with me, we know that it is dangers to walk alone. We got up since the movie was over and stated to go to the gate.
"Hey you two wait up." Two-Bit yelled at us as he and Dally came over to us.
"Yes?" I wanted to know if we forgot something. I had the jacket that Darry told me to take, yet I never took it off since he was right and it did get cold.
"We'll walk you guys home since those Socs didn't seem to happy earlier." Two-Bit told us. We started our way home. Then Dally turned to Johnny.
"Hey Johnnycakes where are you staying tonight?" Dally cared about what happens to Johnny just like the rest of the gang.
"I might stay at the lot." It was getting chilly so I knew it would be too cold to stay at the lot. Me and Johnny had seen his dad starting to drink earlier so he wouldn't want to go home with him.
"Johnny it's too cold to stay out here. You are staying at our house." I told him, Darry knew what Johnny's parents were like and he never cared if he or any of the gang stayed the night.
"You sure Pony I don't want to bother ya'll." He turned to me. Johnny hated to feel like he was bothering anyone. I know how he feels because I feel the same. But he wasn't bothering anyone because we all felt better when he stayed at our house or Two-Bit's.
"You know that you don't bother us and we would feel better if you stayed. That way we don't have to worry about you getting sick because you stayed at the lot. Now isn't that right you guys?" I knew Dally felt the same way and so did Two-Bit.
"Yea Johnny you know Darry don't care. I stay at their place all the time. " Two-Bit told him which was true most of the time he would be watching Mickey Mouse, drinking a beer, and eating chocolate cake.
"You're staying at the Curtis's and that is final." Dally told him in a firm but caring tone as we passed the Lot.
"Okay I will stay."
Two-Bit went inside with us, while Dally said bye and left. Darry was reading the paper and Soda and Steve were still out with their girls.
"Hello, Darry." Two-Bit yelled as he plopped on the coach.
"Hey, so Pony how was the movie?"
"Good, can Johnny stay the night I told him that he could."
"Yea of course. Johnny you know that you are welcome here anytime and you don't have to ask." Darry turned to Johnny when he said the last bit.
"Thank Darry."
"No problem Johnny. There some food in the oven, everyone else has eaten so help yourselves." The three of us walked in to the kitchen and ate chicken, peas, and potatoes. Since they were all the right color I that must have meant that Darry cooked it. When Soda cooked you never knew what color things would be, nothing he ever cooked was normal. We played cards and watched T.V. until Soda came home.
"Hey you guys. What's up?"
"Nothin' much. Where's Steve?"
"Home, I walked him home. So did ya'll have fun?"
"Yea." Johnny and I chorused.
After a while Soda came and sat by me and Johnny and played cards with us and Darry went to bed.
"Night you guys."
"Hey Pone you wanta go to sleep?"
"Yea, see you in the morning Johnny."
"Okay good night Pony, Soda." And with that Johnny laid down on the sofa and Soda cut the light out. We headed to bedroom that we shared ever since I started have nightmares after mom and dad died.
"Night Pony, we are all really proud of you bubby. Darry is excited and said that he will come to as many games as he can."
"Thanks night Soda." That night I didn't have a nightmare. The next morning Darry was up when I woke up, Soda was in the shower. I went in to the living room where Johnny and Two-Bit were watching Mickey Mouse. Johnny looked up when I walked in.
"Hey Pony."
"Yea hey sleeping beauty."
"Hey" then I sat down beside them and I heard Darry in the kitchen cooking. The rest of the day went on like a normal Sunday. I hung out with Johnny and Two-Bit and then later we went and snuck in to the movie. I had to be home before six so I could eat and go to bed since school was tomorrow. After the movie, I went home since it was about five and I knew Darry would be there. I ate dinner with Soda and Darry and later went to bed and was joined by Soda later. I wondered what tomorrow at practice would be like.
Thanks for the reviews I got and please keep it up. They help so please review.
