Get on the Road Again

29

Y/n POV
We all hung out for the rest of the night playing games, which got really competitive knowing me, Soda, and Dally. We also watched Mickey, per usual, and Two-bit was yelling at the screen for some reason which caused us all to laugh. Steve also suggested that we bring out some special chocolate cake, although I think he personally just wanted some cake, so Darry grabbed it and we ate some. Let me tell you that cake was the best I'd ever had. Maybe it was because I had stopped eating cake because it became sickening when eaten everyday, or maybe because it was just some really good cake.
"Mmm! This is amazing" I said with cake in my mouth, muffling my speech, "made it myself!" Steve said proudly and I high fived him.

It was probably past midnight when we all settled down and went to sleep. Everyone who did not live here already wanted to sleepover, and Darry said yes, of course, so they all slept in the living room. Darry went to his bedroom, Pony and Johnny went to their room, while Soda and I went to his. He wrapped his arm around my waist and we walked into his room, and I flopped down onto the bed, exhausted.
"Tired?" I heard Soda ask and I nodded with my face against the covers. He chuckled and slipped into the bed, and I got up and went under the covers as well. I laid my head onto his chest and wrapped my arms around him, and he began to rub my back.

This was just like before, and I loved it.

We both said nothing, though the silence was comforting to both of us. I sighed and put a smile on my face, I was truly happy.
"I love you" Soda started to say, "I love you so much". I lifted my head up and looked at him in his eyes "I love you too Soda" and kissed him. His lips calmed me, and I moved my arms under his and laid my head on his shoulder, hugging him.
He laid his head on top of mine, kissing the top of my head occasionally.

This was love, and it made us both happy.

Both of our bodies relaxed and I moved my head back to his chest, falling sound asleep.

The next morning I felt the sun shining through the window and burning into my eyelids. I peeled them open and looked down at Soda, who I was still sleeping on top of. I smiled to myself and slowly got up to get ready without waking him.

I had actually gotten a good nights sleep for once, it had been weeks since that had last happened.

Still in my clothes from the night before, I tip toed to the living room where I saw Darry had started to make breakfast.
"Hey Dar" I whispered and smiled at him. He looked up and smiled back "hey y/n" "want some help?" I asked and he shook his head "no thanks, that's ok. How'd you sleep?" "Good, you?" "Me too".

It was quiet for a second until I heard some of the boys stirring in their sleep, and I snapped my head in the direction of the noise. Realizing it was just them, I turned back around and said "well I'm gonna go get ready now, just yell to me if you need anything" "ok y/n" he laughed and I went back into my room to get dressed.

Soda was sitting up in bed and rubbing his eyes "hey sleepy" I said and he moved his hands and smiled at me "hey baby". I walked over to him and sat in his lap and kissed him, then I went to pick out some clothes.
"I love you" he said right after I got up "I love you too".

We both got ready and walked back out to the living room, and everyone was awake but Dally and Two-bit.
"Breakfast is ready!" Darry yelled from the kitchen, and that was enough to wake up
Two-bit.
"Breakfast!?" He yelled while half asleep, making everyone laugh. He got up and went to get cake and Dally groaned, waking from all the laughing. "Tired?" I asked him sarcastically as he sat up and he scoffed playfully.
"What time is it anyway?" "Like nine o'clock" "oh" he said surprised and got up to get breakfast too, leaving me as the only one who hadn't eaten yet.

I walked over and grabbed whatever was left from breakfast and sat down with everyone. I noticed Steve and Two-bit looking at each other with confused expressions.
"What are you guys doing?" I asked and they turned their heads quickly to look at me "what are you talking about?" Steve asked raising an eyebrow.
"You and Two-bit, you don't look at each other like that for fun" "well we were just confused" "about what?" I asked them, now wearing a confused expression myself.
"Did you and Dally make up or something?" Two asked, I smiled and looked at Dal who also had a small smile, I looked back at them and said "yeah. Yeah we did".
"Alright!" Steve yelled which made me laugh, and then Darry yelled at him to be quiet which made everyone else laugh.

We were good, we made up, we don't have to hate each other anymore.

Everything was better now, and that made me happy.
