A/N Sorry if it sounds like it's going in circles X3 lol but umm…yeah reviews are accepted?
Two boys stopped me on my journey to nowhere. One had darker skin than the other, but both had blackish looking hair. The lighter skin colored boy had greenish grey eyes and the other one had big black eyes. "You going to ask me for my money to?" I asked shyly.
He looked at me like I asked something funny. "You lost little girl?" He asked. I usually didn't like being called "little girl" or "kid" but I guess I could get help if I didn't bother with it so I shook my head yes. "I was visiting my big brother for my birthday today. You see, I hadn't seen him in a long time and my birthday wish was to see him, but he didn't want to see me. So I just took a walk and wasn't sure where I was going or where I was going to end up." I said softly.
He looked at me with sad eyes. "Come on Ponyboy. I don't want to make this little girl cry." The other boy said. "Johnny we can't just leave her here." The boy in front of me said. "I mentioned my big brother's name to another man and he ran off screaming like he just messed with the devil." I said softly. "What's your brother's name?" The boy who was mentioned as Johnny said.
"Dallas." I said confidently. "Dallas Winston?" The boy who was mentioned as Ponyboy asked. I smiled and nodded. "He's a buddy of ours. We can take you to my place. He's sure to come around to see Johnny." Ponyboy said. "Can I really?" I asked. "Sure." Ponyboy said. "Well my name is Liana. You can call me Lia for short." I said happily. "I'm Ponyboy, that over there is my friend Johnny. Your big brother and him are real good friends." He said smiling. Good friends? Like…he actually cares about him? "I'm fourteen and Johnny is sixteen. How old are you?" Ponyboy asked. I smiled and said confidently, "Thirteen." He looked at me funny. "You don't look thirteen." Ponyboy said. "Never mind. I don't want to explain." I said shyly.
I followed them to Ponyboy's house. When we went inside, I found another boy on the couch. "That's Two-Bit." Johnny said. Two-Bit looked our direction. "Who's the kid?" He asked. I felt my face redden. "I'm not a kid! I'm thirteen!" I said angrily. He laughed. "Don't take Two-Bit seriously. He can never take anything seriously anyways." Ponyboy said. I sat down on the couch next to Two-Bit.
I found Two-Bit trying to poke my face a few times. "You're adorable!" He said to get on my nerves. "Leave me alone!" I said angrily. He poked my face again. "You're so cute when you're angry." He said playfully. "I just look adorable! I will destroy you!" I said angrily. He didn't believe me, and personally I didn't believe myself either. I would never hurt a fly.
"Two-Bit you better leave her alone or she'll get her big brother, Dallas, on you." I heard Ponyboy say. "You're Dallas' little sister?" He asked. I nodded. "But he doesn't care about me. He never did and he never will…my birthday wish was to see him, but that only lasted about thirty seconds." I said sadly. Two-bit just stared at me. "Sucks when you have a brother like Dallas!" Two-bit said laughing.
"You better shut your trap." I heard Dallas say. I looked up to see Dally standing over Two-Bit. I jumped off the couch in joy and ran up to Dallas to hug him. "Dally!" I cried in joy. He stopped me before I even laid a hand on him. I desperately reached for him. Dally held his hand on my head, keeping a good distance away from him and me. That was the first time Dally's ever touched me. I put my hands on top of his, but he moved his hand quickly.
"I come to get away from you and you follow me? Why cant you just stay with your mom and dad and just go be happy somewhere else?" Dallas asked angrily. "Because you make me happy Dally." I said happily. He pushed me back, which had enough force to make me fall to the ground.
"Dally today is my birthday. I was ju-" "What'd they give you this year? A pony?" Dallas asked angrily cutting me off. I got up. "No, I was just running away so I can fu-" "Go back home! Go back to your perfect little life and get out of my life!" Dallas shouted. I dropped my teddy bear and let the tears fall down. "Is that really what you want Dally? To never see me again?" I asked softly.
He nodded his head. "Dal…" I heard Johnny say quietly. I dropped the money, and ran out the door. "If Dallas really doesn't want me around, then I wont be around." I thought. The tears came down my face. I had no idea where I was going. I ran into this parked car, hitting my head hard. "Hey! You better not have dented my car!" a decent dressed boy said angrily. "Randy calm down!" A short black haired girl said. Another pretty girl came around. She had red hair that stood out from the crowd. "Are you ok?" The redhead said softly.
The tears still ran down my face from the emotional pain and now my head from hitting the car. I shook my head no. "What's your name?" She asked kindly. "Liana Winston…" I said softly. "Lia!" I heard a voice calling. I turned around hoping to find Dallas, but I find Ponyboy instead. He took me from the mysterious redhead and led me back to his house. Apparently my thoughts before had vanished and I was thinking of a new way to get Dallas to notice me.
Johnny and Dallas were gone from Ponyboy's house, but Two-Bit still stuck around. "Man I've never seen Dally yell like that before." Two-Bit commented. "He hates me…" I said softly. "Dally doesn't…" Ponyboy trailed off, probably realizing its true. "Why doesn't he understand that my life isn't perfect without him? That I'd give up any perfect life for Dally, but why wouldn't he just see me as his little sister just once?" I asked softly. I laid my head on Ponyboy's lap. I think it made him a bit uncomfortable because he kept squirming around.
I stared at Two-Bit and he stared back. "You're so adorable!" "That does it!" I said. I got up and started punching Two-Bit playfully. I stopped after I was tired out and Two-Bit continued to poke at my face. Ugh the nerve of him. Then I realized I didn't have my teddy bear. I looked behind the couch where I dropped it but it was gone.
"Ponyboy…Two-Bit…where's my teddy?" I asked quietly. No answers. Then I remember Dally yelling at me again. "…And get out of my life!" His words stabbed me. "I'm going to go back…back outside…please don't come looking for me. Hopefully if you find me dead then Dally will show some emotion but I highly doubt it. Tell Johnny I said bye. And bye to you both." I said softly. I ducked my head down and started to head out the door.
When I walked out the door, I saw Johnny and Dally laughing and smiling. "Good one Johnnycake." I heard Dally say. I just walked past them. Dally not caring or knowing I was leaving, just caring for Johnny. Even had a little nickname for him too. I started growing distastefulness for Johnny…I was starting to get…jealous…
