The cure for a hangover I had was to give everyone a monster energy drink. They always worked for me most of the time. I was hoping it would work for Pony. Everyone in the gang had one including Darry. Then we decided we were going to explore the city. I wanted to go to the mall. Two-Bit thought this was a good idea, and I knew he was planning on stealing some stuff. I just told him to be careful, security in the city was tighter. Darry just smiled knowing eventually we going to have pick up Two-Bit somewhere when he caught. Soda and Steve wanted to see if they could pick up any girls. Then Pony wanted to go see a movie. I knew a good one playing, but Darry did not to excite about that. I told Darry we could sit in back and make out but he said he wanted to set a better example for his younger brothers. I knew he did but I wanted to have fun. I still wanted to see the movie.
So Darry and I decided to go see a movie with Pony, but he wanted to see Star wars. I had already seen that. I wanted to see a romantic movie but that did not happen. Pony asked if he could sit alone after there. The other guys decided they were going to walk around the mall, and see if they could steal anything. If that did not work there was an arcade they could play at. I was surprised at Pony, but I think we were he did not want to be a third wheel. We both agreed and did not think anything about it. We went to buy tickets for the movie. I was glad to relax and watch a movie. I knew Darry was not thrilled to watch the movie, but I think he wanted to spend time with Pony after last night. He was worried about what he brother was doing. He was hoping he was not going to be like the other guys.
Darry POV
I was with my girl, Danielle, we got back together as soon as she came back. I knew she was worried about what happen with Pony. I just did not want him to grow up to fast. I knew he was only 15. My life was changing with Danielle being back. We got our ticket. I pick out seats. I was a little worried when Pony wanted to sit by himself. I decided to let him, but I told him we were going to see the same movie. We walk into the movies, and found seats. Pony told me where he was going to be sitting. He wanted to be by himself. I think he was scared he was going to get in trouble for last night. I think I was just going to ground him for a week for drinking when we got back home. With the making out with a girl, I was going to have talk to him about girls. Danielle was sitting beside me and she was always getting into movies. I figure when we were leaving Danielle and Pony were going to be talking about the movie. They both loved them. I trying to watch but they are just so boring. I put my arm around Danielle, and she smiled but she went back to the movie.
I was enjoyed being with a girl. I knew the past was going to catch up to her eventually. She was keeping a secret from the gang. I remember. I surprised the gang had not figure it out. She had the same blonde hair, and her eyes were the exact same. The personality were somewhat different. Last night I could tell she was a Winston. We all sort of went off on own last night. I went back to trying to enjoy the movie.
I look up and I did not see Pony anywhere. Danielle was way into the movie. I tuned to her and ask her if she had seen where Pony had went. She did not notice he left, and neither did I. I was hoping he just went to the restroom. The movie was finally over, it was a very long movie. I went out to the lobby to find Pony. I could not believe what I was seeing. He was making out with another girl. I beginning to think he has a thing for red heads, because both girls he had been with had red hair. He was getting worse as the rest of the guys. I was hoping to be different. I went up to him and tapped him on the shoulder. He looked up and think he knew he was going to be in trouble.
Danielle POV
We got done with the movie. I do not think Darry care for the movie all the much. I knew he was deep in thought and I think was about his little brother. We watch the end of the movie and Pony had left during the movie. I was hoping he had just went to the bathroom. Hope was dashed when we waked out to the lobby and Pony was making out with a girl.
Darry had tapped his shoulder and Pony look up like he was in trouble. I do not blame Darry. Pony was getting out of control. I do not think Darry was excepting Pony to be interested in girl quite yet. I knew Darry was about to lose his temper. I walk up to them trying to keep my cool, but I knew this was going to be difficult. I told Darry to talk about this when were in the truck. I think I am calling buck and the rest of the guys can ride with him back to home. I decided to make Pony and Darry leave to find the guys, so they would not fight inside the mall. We went to the arcade hoping they would end up there.
When we were walking there, I notice Pony neck had a hickey. I tell really what you were thinking. We were in the movies, and you just meet that girl. He did not know what to say. He was scared, because I usually stay pretty quiet about what the guys do. The guys walk up to us. They did not what was going on. They were looking at me because I usually do not look mad. I was just about as mad as Darry was. I told the guy we were going to be eating lunch and then heading back to Tulsa. We deiced to go to the restaurants at the end of the mall, which was good. We all got food. Pony was stuck in between me and Darry. He knew he was in trouble when I was being near him. We had a pretty normal lunch. We all went to the restroom before heading out. We had pack out stuff last night from the hotel. I had call Buck, and he agreed to pick up the guys. They were going to ride back with him. Darry and I were going to talk to Pony about his behavior lately. I knew this had to been done. I did think I was going to enjoy this at all, but I think this need to be done, so he does not make a mistake.
