hello peps :D hows it going ? anyway new chapter! hazar!
Don't own anything...
I woke up the next morning the sun was shinning threw the window. I remembered last night, all of it the first thing I needed to do was talk to Dally. I knew by now the gang would be here, it was Saturday. I sat up, ignoring the pain from my wounds. I slid out of bed, I had slept in my clothes from yesterday. I stretched my arms out, yawning a bit. I winced as I moved to much irritating my cut.
I found this even more a reason to find Dally.
I walked outside, like expected everyone was here in the kitchen eating cake, Darry was handing them out. "Oh I was just about to send Soda to wake you Pony," He said holding out a plate. I took it saying a good morning to soda, after he said his muffled threw cake. My eyes glanced around the kitchen, no sign Dally.
"Dally's not here?"
Soda glanced up from his food, "Nope, haven't seen none of him since last night."
"Oh," I mumbled frowning softly. I could feel eyes on me. I looked up Johnny was watching me, his eyes bore into mine. I smiled weakly, trying to get him to look away. I didn't like this. It felt like things had changed. Kinda like when someone black mails you your just waiting for them to snap. Two things are wrong with that. One Johnny would never black mail Johnny doesn't know anything about me that he shouldn't.
...Right?
A new fear built up inside. There's no way, I mean How would he find out in the first place? Well I guess that's obvious he does live at that house. But he wasn't even home. Well he could have come home and saw. I felt my palms get really sweaty, I swallowed deeply. Oh no, Johnny knows! He fucking knows! Ok Ok calm down, what if he doesn't know, he's just suspicious. Yeah that could be it. I thought back, did we we anything slip yesterday? When Athena was around?
Then the phone rang, "I got it!" I ran out of the kitchen wanting to get away from those eyes that bore into mine. "Hello Curtis house."
"Be here in twenty, or you'll be sorry."
my breath caught in my throat. It was him. "Yes sir,"I said bluntly.
I could just imagine that stupid grin he had on his face, "Good boy, I'll see you soon." With that he hung up. My problems had just multiplied by ten. Despite things were fixed with Darry, I still had Dallas, and The Cade's. This is new I though I've never been called up in the day before...
I sigh hanging up the phone "who was it Pony?" I turned around to Darry.
"It was- uh a friend, yeah he- uh wanted me to meet him at the library to help with homework , then we may go see a movie. If that's ok?"
He studied me for a minuet, before nodding "You know the rules, be safe kiddo." I could have laughed at the irony of those words.
"Will do dar," I said getting my shoes on. "He wanted to meet up in twenty so I better get going..." Darry nodded. I stood up calling out a good bye to the others.
I walked outside, down the steps on my way to hell. I didn't have to stop by the lot I knew where Johnny was, so the walk took less time. Although that didn't stop me from walking as slow as I could.
Coming into the drive way I saw them. The Cade's standing on the porch arms crossed looking pissed as hell. Oh boy what did I do? I thought of all the things I could have done. " Don't play stupid brat," Mrs. Cade hissed.
"We know what you did," Mrs. Cade said
"Well I don't ," I said walking up the steps. "Mind telling me?"
yanked me up by my collar " You told! You little shit! You fucking told!" My world stopped. My heart sped up I felt like I couldn't breath. Who found out? How did they find out? I was dead. This man would kill me today.
This was way worse then Dally. Dallas found out I had nothing to do with it. This though they thought I had told. Sure I could say I had no clue as to what they meant, but that wouldn't help. They wouldn't believe me.
Next I know I was on their living room floor hits being thrown at me by BOTH of them at me. I knew that they would make this last as long as they could. They did.
Hours passed, they beat worse then any other time. I got the belt , burns, and many other things. I had no clue what time it was, Darry was most likely worried. The sun had gone down. The moon was here.
The pain was never ending. I was drowning in it. Slowly killing me. I thought of all the things I'd never do. Never go to college. Never get married. Never have kids. Never get out of this town. That hit me the most.
All my life I was always the one thought to get out of here. The whole gang knew I would get out of here. Aside from Darry who had given up his chance for me and Soda. I felt tear build up.
Then there was Dallas. He and I would never fix our fight. What a bad way to die. Still having unfinished business with someone. especially one of your best friends. All over what? The fact he didn't understand it and you were confused?
Oh man what was I thinking. all those year ago? Johnny would find out and he would always blame himself. Even if I did it out of my own will. I'd never see Athena again. Never go to her after a visit to the Cade's. I'll never lay in bed talking to Soda again. I can never play football with Darry again.I'll never watch Mickey with two-bit again. Or fight with Steve over something stupid.
All the small things I took for granted. I would give anything to be doing them right now.
I think this as I fade into darkness...
Grr that was an ugly chapter!
oh yeah thank u all for the Ideas, I think I know how it could all work out.
Quick question:
who's P.O.V should I do for the next chapter? Dallas or Johnny? Cause they find out next chapter... Or both? Tell me !
