We sit on the couch of the Curtis's livening room. I hug my knees close to my chest huddled in the Conner of the couch. I'm thinking about New York, my past, my friends, my gang, my family. I let out a sigh and scoot closer to Johnny. Two-bit was sleeping off a hangover Dally's at Bucks'.
The rest of us are sitting here not knowing what to do with our self's. I get up swiftly and walk out the door I walk in the direction of the park. I stare at my shoes the whole time I walked there.
I heard laughs creak of old swings and a splash of pound water. I felt the blade Dally gave me in my back pocket.
I head to a quiet place I sit down in the soft green grass. I can feel it riding up against my jacket. I lay down until I doze off.
"Miss I believe it's not safe too fall asleep in the park." A man says close to my ear.
I jump up quickly to see Curly Shepard grinning ear to ear. How long have I been out I thought to myself.
"Thanks for the jump scare curly." I snort patting the ground next to me for him to sit down.
"Ah my pleasure." He says.
"I love the park. Besides all the little kids." I mutter.
"Meh alleys are more my desired place."
"Wow!" I exclaim with in a mocking tone.
"Huh?" He asks.
"You know a big word for you at least." I chuckle.
"Yeah well that's what you get for hanging out with Ponybot." He chuckles.
"Don't make fun of the kid!" I snap at him suppressing a grin.
"Ok! Ok!" He laughs harder.
"What time is it?" I ask him.
"Do I look like a fucking clock?" He snaps.
"Eh." I mutter to myself.
"Want to go to the Dingo?" He asks me.
"Sounds fun ok." I say getting up.
We walk over to the Dingo and pick a table. We get two cokes and chat while we wait for them.
"So why did you come to Tulsa?" He asks.
"For the kicks." I say sarcastically.
"Oh sure." He says rolling his eyes.
"Your cokes." The waiter says setting them down staring at curly the whole time.
"Bet it!" I snarl at him.
He surreys away Curly and I laugh are heads off about the look on his face.
"Why did you do that?" He asks me.
"I didn't like the way he was glaring at ya." I say.
"Yeah I get that look a lot me and Tim have quite a rep." Curly brags.
"Oh shit I got to go Dal's going to chew my butt." I exclaim.
"Let me walk you home then."Curly says leaving the money we owe.
"Ok." I say smiling.
We walk down the street asking causal questions like what you is favorite signer, color stuff like that. We stop outside the Curtis steps just staring at each other.
"Cya." He says lighting a cigarette.
'Bye." I say walking up the steps.
I walk in slowly. I walk into the living room I see Dal sitting on the couch in a argument with Two-bit.
"Two-Bit no one wants to watch Mickey mouse!" Dallas snaps.
"Well I do." The man child replies.
I creep up on Two-Bit and swipe the T.v remote from him.
"Hey!" He yells turning around.
"Ha." I snort tossing it to Steve before he could tackle me.
"Ha-ha your rain of terror shall end." Steve chuckles and changes the channel.
I plop down next to Dal and turned to my direction.
'Where were you?" He asks me eagerly I remembered I said I would be here.
"I was at the park for a while then went to the dingo with Curly." I say raising a eyebrow.
"Ok just checking." He sighs and leans back.
"What ever Dal." I mutter as we all head to the kitchen for dinner.
"Why don't you guys ever eat at home!" Darry sighs.
"This is are home." Two-Bit says winking at me.
I pile my plate full of food I engulf it like a vacuum. I chugged a glass of water then I headed to witch is now basically my room to go to bed.
I change in to my pajamas and slip under the covers.
I wake up to no blinding lights like usual I jump of the bed and walk out to the living room. I scope the room for Dallas not sure why. I didn't see him maybe he's at Shepard or bucks I think with a shrug. I sit on the part of the couch Steve's not hogging his old man kicked him out I get up with a sigh. I trudge off to the kitchen I get a bowl of cercal and eat it slowly.
I head towards the shower with a towel and my cloths. I set them on the sink counter.
I get dressed in my jeans and a causal shirt I was glad its summer break now I slip out the front door with out waking anyone. I walk to the park staring at my pale arms and my white converse. I bump someone and fall onto my back.
"Shit..."I curse under my breath.
"Watch it grease." Someone spits at me and walks away.
I just sit there wondering why I stayed in this place. Because of Dallas I though to my self I just sit there thinking about nothing I just sit there.
"Need a little help miss." A voice says in front of me sticking out a hand.
I look up to see a chubby guy with a cigarette in one hand and the other extended towards me. I kindly accepts his help and smile at him.
"Thanks." I says still smiling.
"No problem." He says walking away.
I pull out a cigarette and light it stuffing the lighter in my pocket I walk to the park sitting on the soft grass. I look around the park no screaming children no annoying lovers. I soak in the emptiness I wish it was always like this. I see the sun high and mighty in the sky I stand up heading towards the swings. I sit on the old swing swinging back and forth listening to the creak of the old rusty chains.
