𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘢 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 ≪•◦ ❈ ◦•≫ last night all a blur; peter and pony getting into a fight, pony asking me to be his girlfriend, and dad coming home late but drunk as usual. cherry found out about my relationship with pony and she couldn't be anymore happier, she's been all "my sister's got a boyfriend" type of shit.
i sat in my room doing some homework and scattering through books that i have to return to the library. my phone began ringing, i answered the phone to hear pony's voice, my face lit up when i heard his voice through the shitty audio.
"hey talia."
"hey pone, you called?" of course he fucking called, stupid bitch.
"yeah, umm... have you told your parents yet? you know, about us." why would he be asking that?
"yeah, let me grab my stuff and i'm out." i hung up.
i grabbed my coat, book, and bag that had a blanket just in case pony just happened to set up a date by the dock even though it's freezing out. should've known that both mom and dad were home today, they were gonna stop me midway no matter what.
mom was cold drunk, she wasn't stable enough to walk out of the kitchen so she had to raise her voice "where do you think you're going?!"
"my friend, courtney's house." i lied, so many stupid names of people who don't exist.
"if you're hanging out with greasers, i will make sure you're out of this house!" dad threatened.
"why would i hangout with such filths?!" i lied again, felt good to be honest.
i slam the door on my way just to get a reaction out of them, did mom tell dad about mom basically ungrounding me? i'm pretty sure she did because he had no problem with me leaving, other than him speaking out about greasers.
there were a bunch of greasers smoking a cigarette or had shades on to keep the bright sun out, angela made me fall off my board when she stepped in front of me with her arms crossed.
"so you're the one who stole ponyboy." she said sternly.
"well don't go all poco loco over your date who just wanted to have a good time." i shot back, getting up from the sandy dirt.
"who knew he wanted a dirty soc like you." she scoffed, spat on my shoes.
"you've done it whore!" i aimed for her eye.
angela wrestled me to the ground, slapped me with her right hand, i roll her over and punched her repeatedly. i felt two sets of arms yank me by the waist, when i turn to see dally all angry, i pushed him away.
"i'll get you slut, don't you worry." angela yelled while wiping the blood away from her nose.
"what the fuck happened?!" dally was mad, like mad mad.
"none of your business, now leave me alone." i grab my skateboard and walk away from him.
"you're in my territory, so it is my business!" he followed.
"angela's mad about last night, is that what you wanted to hear?!" i stopped, got up in his face,
"mad about what? i don't go to school." he kept aiming the end of his hand against his chest.
"she's mad that i kissed pony." i muttered the last part.
"woah, you kissed pony?" he chuckled.
"yes, don't go rubbing it in." i kept walking.
"holy... shit."
"whatever, i'm going to pony's." we were already there by the time i finished.
dally pushed me out of the way to spread the big news "hey guys, pony kissed talia!"
"hell yeah, alright everyone pay up!" two-bit had his hand out.
ponyboy stood up, walked up to me "talia who did this to you?" he pointed at my cheek.
"angela." dally replied while handing two-bit $5.
"damn it, get darry to help her, i'll be back." ponyboy clicked his tongue before putting on his coat.
"who called me and where do you think you're going?" darry asked while walking from the kitchen.
"to talk to curly, maybe even knock some sense into him by getting his sister the help she needs." pony doesn't hesitate to walk out.
"let's treat that bruise of yours tal, it's looking pretty bad." darry leads me into the kitchen.
darry handed me an ice pack, then pushes his hands against the sink to get a good look at the sky from the window.
"you and pony, huh? never thought my kid brother would get a girlfriend." darry chuckled.
"well it all happened last night, nothing big." i shrugged, feeling a bit cold from the ice.
"i'll make sure he isn't doing anything funny, you're family and we make sure y'all are okay." darry noted.
"thanks dar." i smiled, side hugged him before walking out to the living.
