Ponyboy's POV
I woke up lying still and staring at the ceiling not blinking an eye. "Darry, he's doing it again." Soda yelled as he toppled on top of me to get my attention. I could tell Darry was coming and he coming fast. "Kiddo?" I didn't respond. When Darry waved his hand over my face I showed no reaction and kept staring. "Okay, now that's just creepy." Soda said as he backed away like I was going to possess him. "C'mon he'll be okay." Darry pulled Soda out of the room and closed the door. I sat up and leaned my head against the wall looking upward.
Darry's POV
Everyone is worried about Pony. The rest of gang came over. I know Pony will be fine. I know what it's like....to be shut down by the person you love. I bet you, Steve, Dally, and Two-Bit have never had felt....I don't want to sound like a princess but they have never had felt 'True Love'. To be honest, Steve is just Steve. He's too rowdy for many girls to like him nor me either. Dally will NEVER ever feel true love in his life. He cheats and lies and he is just to mean to get any girls. Not to mention, Dally talks to dirty not meaning cussing. Two-Bit took me awhile to figure out. Two-Bit just doesn't have a normal live life. He just dates whoever he can find, in his past life he's had at least 8 girls. They are just looney lonesomes. Dally and Steve are too selfish and don't play by the rules. But what can I say? I'm not perfect.
Lilly's POV
I woke up and remembered all the pain and misery I was put through.
  Pony's POV
I woke up feeling empty and lost. My love of my life was gone. What do I do? I tended to ponder this question so much it almost made my head explode. "PONY" Darry yelled to me. I was sitting in Soda's and my room. "Yeah?" I shouted back. "Johnny is here." I plopped off the bed and slouched as I walked into the living room. Johnny had this look on his face...He      looked like something....something intriguing...
"Hey Pony.." He said so softly he sounded like a mouse. "Hi Johnny." "Uh Pony, could I talk to you?" "Sure." We went back into the bedroom. "What's up Johnny?" I was very curious as to what's going on. "PONY I'M SO SORRY." I have never heard Johnny talk that fast. "Why?" I was very concerned and scared. "When you and Lilly were fighting and I helped  defend her... I'm..just..really.JEALOUS." I was in total surprise. "Johnny?" I paused for a couple of seconds before finishing my sentence. "Why would you be jealous?" "I-I just felt like you and Lilly hang out a lot-." "Oh Johnny is this what this is about-." "I just feel so lumpy and torn and broken." He sighed. "It's okay, I'll help you through it."
Dally's POV
I walked up the cement walkway to the front door of Lilly's house. There is no way these 2 are goin' to stay apart for any longer. When she answered she almost slammed the door. "What do you want?" She appeared to have mascara running down her face from her eyes. "Lilly-." "Listen I know Ponyboy sent you here-." "No..No, he uh he didn't, I came on my own." She stopped to think for a second. "I'm sorry." "Listen, you don't have to be like this...if you talk to Ponyboy you'll be not so torn." "LILLY" I heard a voice call to her. DAMMIT I WAS TRYING TO GIVE ADVICE AND IT GETS THE PURPOSE TAKEN OUT OF IT. "I gotta go." She turned around. "Wait..just think about what I said." I winked at her. "Goodbye, DALLAS WINSTON." She screamed.
