I wake up to the smell of breakfast being made. I think Darry getting really worried about me. I know he thinks I am going to take off but I told him I was going to stay around. I told him I was going talk to someone today. He was surprised. I told him Pony was just coming with me but was thinking about talking to someone. Then I told him later that day I was going to go sign Steve and Soda up for GED classes. Then I was going to talk the guide consoler at the high school. He looked really confused. Then I went on to explain that I told Pony he could take some college class. He looked very happy with this. He finished breakfast. We had bacon, sauguae and eggs. Everything was a normal color, so I had to tell him he forgot to color the eggs. He just shoot me a mean look.
We finished breakfast. Soda, Pony and Steve had come out to breakfast. Darry and I were playing footsie under the table. I think the guys knew but did not say anything. Darry left for work. He gave me a kiss before he left for work. He was being super sweet because he knew I was having a hard time. Pony went to get dressed and so did I. Slipped on a pair of blue jeans and a cute little blue t-shirt. It was tight but I was used that. I think Pony, Steve and Soda were surprised when I came out of the bedroom in that shirt. Darry ask if I should wear that and I told him yes. He left with work and took Soda and Steve with him. He was going to drop them off at the DX.
Pony came back to the kitchen. He had on his jeans and a black t-shirt. I think that use to be Darry's shirt. He was being quiet and thinking about everything a lot. I knew he was unsure about today. He knew he was just keeping me company but I think he thought I was going to break. Ever since we went to the cemetery he had been trying to keep my calm more often. Darry was being super sweet I love it most of the time. Sometimes it was a little annoying. I walked out and we climbed into my truck and drove to the appointment.
We drove for about 20 mins. I have gotten into a pretty nice office. We walked up to the desk to check in. Pony was looking around impressed. I guess he had not been in an office this fancy. I wanted someone who was going to help. We sat down and waited. I was reading a book and so was Pony. My name was called by the lady at the front desk. I walk back and told Pony to stay out their until I was done. I was not sure what to expect.
I walk back into the room. There was a chair, a couch and everything look quite nice. The Doctor was sitting at the desk but moved to the chair. The doctor was a guy and he looked nice enough. He started asking me basic question and trying to get me to talk about myself. I was very good with this. Most of the time I just answered with a yes or no question or a simple one word answer. He said I should try working out and try talking to more people I am around. I went over my living conditions and he should say Darry would be helpful and maybe so would the rest of the guys.
After talking I did not feel much better but the doctor said it would take time. I walk out and shculed my appointment for next week. I looked around for Pony and notice was not there. The lady at the desk said he went outside to smoke. I am assuming he was getting impatient. I think sometime he and Darry are a lot like but they will not admit. I was hoping he was going to talk to someone and open up with everything that happened. I walked outside to see Pony getting into a fight with a Soc. I should have told him to stay put, but he was doing very well from what I could see but we were not exactly in our territory. I walked over to them and started to yell at both of them. Pony looked beyond pissed and the Soc. ran away because he could not do anything to a girl.
I told Pony to get into the truck. He could tell I was not happy. He lit a cigarette and stole one from him. He knew he was going to be in trouble when we got home. I did not know what to do with him because he kept getting into trouble and grounded him was not working. I knew I was going to have to do something and I think talking to Darry was going to be the answer. When we got home I told him to go his room until supper.
I walk into the kitchen and Darry was home which was a surprised. He ask my how my apportinetment went and I told him that it was fine but he knew me better than that. I told him it was hard and upsetting, but I would get through everything. He told me he would be there for me and he gave me a kiss on the check. I see the paper work for Steve and Soda to get their GED, so I knew that was going to be a fight tonight. I had seen my college paper work that needed to be filled out and along with Pony. I was thinking maybe this would help him break out of getting into trouble but I also knew college girls and Pony was used to being with older guys and he would not think twice about dating one. He was only 15 and that scared me some and I knew it bothered Darry. I started to fill out mine and hopeful get it done before dinner and get it sent in. I still had a few weeks to get Pony in but I had to get Steve and Soda in pretty quick. I have to sign them up for a prep classes as well but they were with people that worked so they could not complain or so I hoped.
Darry was making supper while I was getting all the paperwork filled out. I had just finished mine when we sat down to dinner. Two-Bit had come over for dinner which was no surprised. We ate and after supper we were going to talk to Steve and Soda. Plus we were going to tell the guys Saturday night me and Darry were going out on a date. We needed some alone time and break from the kids.
A/N: I hope to get back to this story. I was having writer block but I think I am back now from that. I should be updating at least one a week from now on or more that is at least my goal at this point. Thanks for the reviews. Any suggestion welcome.
