i thought about going to the party. should i go with all those people there. would it be a good idea? two bit would be there with me. "yes i will go" i looked up at two bit "will u be there" i asked "of course" i smiled "will u be there" i asked pony and johnny and they both shook there heads "oh steve will u be there" "yep and dally will" "will darry" "yep he should be" soda smiled and i gave him one back "can we get food now" i asked. two put an arm on my shoulder so it wasn't suspicious to the others if he held my hand or something. we went into the gas station and picked out some snacks and ate them. "you dont have to go to that party you know" "i want to" i said. i grabbed a bunch pf snacks i seen and put them on the cash register. soda and steve weren't the only ones that worked at the dx another guy worked there too. his name was blake he lived down the street from us. he was nice. always been nice but he asked me out this past year and i said no so that took a toll on how he thinks about me now. probably thinks im selfish and rude. "so your going to that party" he asked two "yep are you" "yep sure am" "you shouldn't go" he pointed at me "just give me my food" he handed me the bag and i walked out fast to soda "i think ur little friend in there just threatened me" i pointed to blake talking to two in there "you better go get two bit before he starts something" pony said to me "why are u pointing to me" "ur causing the problem" "no im not? why would u say that" "wasn't blake talking to u" "why are you blaming this on me. hes gonna get in a fight and its my problem?" "kinda is" "im done" pony just shrugged and i walked over to the bench and plopped on it. two bit walked out of the gas station and walked over to the bench. i looked down at the ground as he plopped on it scooting closer to me. i tried not to make any eye contact because of what pony said to me. it wasn't that rude or anything just its the fact he said it was my fault that him and two bit were arguing. its my fault if they get in a fight. its my fault if two bit gets hurt. and two did get hurt. i couldn't stand being next to him and not paying any attention to him. basically just ignoring him. i looked up and he has a bloody nose and he was sweaty. of course i freaked out because like i said its my fault that he got hurt. i had a tissue in my pocket and i brought it to his nose and wiped it off. he stopped my hand. i wondered why he did that. all im doing is helping him. i care about him so i helped him and he just throws my hand off him and says nothing. forget this. i threw the tissue that i was wiping his nose with at him and stood up. i started walking away fast. "y/n" two bit called my name and i didnt even try to look back. i shouldn't be mad at him i should be mad at ponyboy for saying that. if he didnt say that them i never would have gotten upset in the first place. none of the guys were paying attention to me they were just intrigued by sodas voice just from him talking to them. so i just started walking down the sidewalk away from the dx to take a break. i could hear clanking boots on the sidewalk behind me. they were twos. he wasn't gonna let me walk alone and i knew that. he sped up faster i could tell from the footsteps being faster than they were a minute ago. all the sudden i felt my hand being grasped and two bit spun me around so i was facing him and pulled me in. it was nice being this close to him. "im sorry" he whispered in my ear and i just grasped him tighter. i hadn't realized id been crying until two pulled me away and wiped my tears away with the bag of his hand. he kissed my forehead and brought me closer again. he set us down on the sidewalk. "whats wrong love" i put my head on his shoulder "pony" "he said its my fault you got hurt. and now i feel like this is all my problem and i hurt you." "its not ur fault, i promise" "pinky?" "yes pinky" i smiled and he asked another question "are u mad at me?" "i didnt like the fact that i was wiping ur nose and u brushed my hand off" "im sorry i shouldn't have done that, it was uncalled for" "ur right. it was" "im sorry y/n" i looked at him and he was sorry. the look of guilt that was on his face was enough to make someone burst into a million tears. "its okay" i said kissing him on the cheek and standing up. i reached my hand out to grab his and pull him off the uncomfortable sidewalk. we walked back to the dx hand in hand but once we got to the entrance we let go. i went up to soda to talk to him. sodas always so nice to me. hes the sweetest person ever. he'll listen to anyone talk forever. that's why i love talking to him. "hey soda pop" "hey y/n" he said with his pearly white teeth in an upward smile "watcha doinnnn" "getting ready to close up" "its already time?" "yuppers" "yay lets go home and get ready for the party" "y/n?" "yes?" "i dont think u should go this time" "what why?" my heart dropped. going to a party is literally the only time me and two can be alone and be next to each other without the boys knowing. "well maybe i dont care what u think" i was mad. "just someone needs to be with at all times" "two bit will be. its beneficial for both of us. i stay with him and make sure he doesn't drink to much and he stays with me" "true. okay maybe u should go" i was about to say something but i was cut off by johnny saying lets go. steve must have started his car or something. i ran up to the car to steves window "how are we all supposed to fit in this back seat?" "squeeze in there" i opened up the driver door and there was no room in the back seat for me and two bit was sitting right there. oh god there gonna know that me and him have a thing if i casually just sit on his lap as if thats normal. so i just plopped down on him and tried not to be as close and touchy so the others would think that i didn't like this and that i was uncomfortable. once we got to the house i hopped out and went inside and dal and darry were already there. "hi dar bear" "hi" he said in the sweetest tone. he came over and gave me a side hug and asked how my day was. i went up to my room to put on something for the party. i decided a jean black skirt that was above knee length would pair great with a cropped short sleeve white t shirt that was red on the sleeves. i put on my black converse and decided to wear my hair down. i came out of ny room and grabbed some water out of the fridge. everyone was doing there hair and picking out an outfit. two went to his house since he lives on the corner to change his outfit. a few minutes later he walked in and he was dressed like soda except soda wears a flannel. two had a shirt like sodas flannel but it didn't have flannel patterns like his did. it was light blue and one solid color. he looked so cute. i had to sit on the couch and focus my attention on something else i swear.
