I woke up with a big smile on my face. Today I got to see Johnny again, but more importantly meet his friends.

"Bye dad I'm going out!" I yelled into the living room. I didn't hear an answer so I assumed he was at work.

I met Johnny at the park, well more like scared him. I ran towards him and tried- key word tried, to jump on his back. I ended up tripping on a rock and falling on my face. He looked at me with wide eyes.

"Oh my God, Nyla are you okay?!" Johnny asked, while helping me up. I just nodded to embarrassed to say anything.

We walked to his friend Ponyboy's house. When he first said his friend's name was Ponyboy I thought he was kidding. Turns out he wasn't. Ponyboy's a unique name I thought to myself, I like it.

I saw a house and I assumed it was Ponyboy's. Johnny opened the door for me and walked in.

"Hey guys," he said quietly. But everyone seemed to hear him because they all said their hi's and hey's back.

Then they noticed me.

"Who's the girl Johnny?" some gorgeous looking boy asked. But he's no Johnny.

"This is Nyla," Johnny said.

"I met her yesterday," Johnny whispered. He seemed to leave out the part about me saving him from his mother but I figured it was for a reason so I let it be.

I finally spoke up.

"Hi," I whispered. I think I'm turning into Johnny. Also meeting seven people is kind of nerve racking for me.

"She's a cutie," some other guy said as he winked at me. He looked like the kind of guy I would usually try to avoid.
After he said that I looked at Johnny and he had a sort of sad expression on his face.

The guy noticed this and shut up right away.

"So what's your names?" I asked quietly, trying to make it less awkward.

"I'm Darry," A tough looking man said, then continued reading the newspaper.

"I'm Sodapop." So that's the beautiful mans name. I mean I won't deny it he's hot but I'm into someone else at the moment.

"I'm Ponyboy." So this is Johnny's best friend.

"I'm Steve." some guy mumbled. Then glared at me and ate chocolate cake. What did I do?

"Hey my names two bit but you can call me your boyfriend." Some guy with a Mickey Mouse shirt said. I laughed under my breath at that.

"My name's Dallas." The one who called me a cutie earlier said. He was also glaring at me. Why are they glaring at me?

Then Johnny noticed Steve and Dallas glaring at me and he looked pretty pissed, not how he usually looks.

"Hey why are you guys glaring at her? She didn't do anything!" The boys looked at Johnny shocked. I did to, from what I know he doesn't speak up very often.

"She's a soc Johnny! You made friends with a damn soc, just look at what she's wearing!" Dallas yelled, while glaring at me.

"Heck, she ain't no soc Dally," Johnny said with confidence. Then he turned to look at me.

"You ain't a soc right Nyla?" He was basically pleading me with his eyes to say no. I don't even know what a soc is! Maybe it's those snobby boys that keep bothering me.

"I don't know what you guys are talking about. What's a soc?" I asked them with curiosity.

"Johnny man where'd you find her?! She doesn't even know what a soc is! She'll probably be one of them just wait you'll see," Dallas shouted. I don't know what a soc is, but I don't like being accused of being it. Johnny just looked at me with fear in his eyes. I don't know why. I wonder what happened to make him so afraid of these "socs."
