Chapter 3
"What's wrong?" He asks wiping my tears.
"N….nightmare." I stutter out sounding like a little kid.
"Hm... what was it about?" He asks.
"I was being suffocated under water by this jet black thing with daggers for teeth and slashes for eyes. Sea weed dragged me into inky sludge to my death." I wail.
I notice the whole gang was look at us I saw Dal glaring at Two-bit and Steve.
"I...I think I'm going to be sick." I say as I remembered him stroking my leg I run to the bathroom.
I start throwing up gasping for air I felt tears slid off my cheeks like a water slide. I felt someone pat my back I held no grudge against Two-bit or Steve they didn't get me caught on the sea weed.
I looked up to see Darry I start bawling and he cradles me close to his chest.
"Sh… It's ok it was just a dream." He sooths me.
"I…t felt so real." I whimper.
"I know." He says stroking my hair.
I push the dream to the back of my mind. I must have fallen asleep again because I woke up in the room I slept in last night. I walk out into the living room I see the clock its midnight I decide to go back to bed I walk back to the room and go to bed.
"Wake up Sky." Someone shakes me.
I blink my eyes open to see Steve and Two-bit hovering above me I sit up dazed.
"Get out." I say shooing them.
"Why?" Two-bit asks.
"So I can get dressed now shoo." I say pushing them out.
I throw on a black shirt with old jeans and white converse. I pull my hair up into a ponytail and slid my necklace on to my neck.
I slid out the door into the living room to see them waiting on me.
"What we doing?"I ask.
"Playing football." Johnny explained.
"Oh ok." I say walking over to Dal.
We walk down the street down to the lot Darry and Dallas are the team captions.
"Dal you can pick first." Darry says.
"I want… Steve." Dal says pointing at him.
"Soda." Darry says coolly.
"Johnny." Dal says pulling the kid over to him.
"Two-Bit." Darry says with a sigh because he knows they will chide him if he picks Pony.
"Umm…" Dal hums.
"Ponyboy!" Steve yells for Dallas.
It doesn't affect me to much being picked last it happened all the time at school. I saw Dal shoot me his best opps look. I stifle a laugh.
"Ok Sky run the ball then pass it to the closet teammate and then it will come forward to me because I'll be by the goal." Darry explains.
He throws me the ball Two-bit tossed me the ball and I take off running at full speed. I realize I'm almost at the goal I look back to see I passed everyone accepts Ponyboy.
"Score Sky!" Darry yelled at me.
I ran it to the spot we picked for a goal. I saw everyone charging towards me they pat me on the back.
"How about we go get some pop?" Soda offers.
"Sure." We all reply.
We reach the Dx Soda gets us all sodas and we sit down at a small table they have there. I sip on my soda and answers questions that they ask me.
"So ready to head back home." Darry says my mind wonders to New York.
They start heading for the door I sigh.
"I'll be there in a bit I wanna walk alone for a bit." I tell them then they left.
I took a deep breath and head for the park. I sat on rim of the fountain they have there the pounds way in the back of the park.
I felt and hand shoves me into the fountain. I gasp as icy cold water fills my mouth I stand up drenched in cold water. I ball my fists up as I see Sylvia standing inches ahead of me grinning. This time she has friends with her most likely to do the dirty work.
"I told you would pay. Girls drag her out." She commands flicking her cigarette butt on the ground.
Her friends latched on to my arms and pin me to the ground. My drenched cloths soaking the grass next to the fountain. Sylvia hovered above me with a wicked grin on her face.
I felt her fists rain on my face chest and stomach. I heard herd her pull out a blade and wacked it on the side of my head. She drew her foot back and kicked my stomach and then my head.
"Sylvia I think she's learned her lesson." A girl spoke up.
"Oh no she getting it good."She says wickedly.
I felt the blade dig in to my arm and stomach. I gasped for breath as she threw me in to the cold fountain again. She leaned up next to my ear.
"Stay away from me or just go back to that trash whole you're from." She hisses and stomps away.
I pull my head out of the water I gasp as pain tingles through my body. I let my head sink back into the water. I gasp in water and I try and heave myself up but I can't find the strength to.
"Hey…Curly! Look at this!" A person yells lifting me out of the water.
"What?" Curly asks annoyed.
"I found this girl in there." He says gesturing towards the fountain.
"Let's take her to my house you good carrying her?" Curly asks.
"Fine man lets go." The man holding me says following curly toward his house.
"Winston's here so keep your trap shut man." Curly warned.
'Got it what do I do with her?" He asks.
"Set her in the recliner with a bucket I guess she's going to puke when she wakes up." Curly says barging through the door.
'Tim she's been missing for 2hours." I hear a man fret.
I'm guesses they beat me up for about 1 hour and 30mins so I spent 30 mins in the fountain. I gag as he sets me down I blink my eyes open and fear prickles in my stomach.
"Who's that Curly?" Tim calls.
