"Come on Taijah lets go to the rumble!" My brother Tim yelled up the stairs. "Teijah!" I reminded him. I didn't really like Taijah so I thought of Teijah.

"Oh yeah right Teijah!" He yelled again. "comin!" I said heading out my room.

"Where's curly?" I asked as we headed out. "don't know" he said looking down, "probably already at the rumble" he said "but you missy aren't participating" his voice got stricter.

"Yeah i know" I said in a sad tone.
"Your too young Teijah" he said slapping my arm. I punched back real hard.

"Ouch" he said rubbing his arm, we got there early before Dallas and the rest of them could get here.

We waited there for a good hour or two, then people started to show up the sun just had gone down so it was dark.

I hid behind my brother because I didn't know if they where greasers or soc's. then Tim left me I felt uncomfortable, then I realized they where our own kind.

I didn't have grease in my hair though. I had it in a ponytail some times or just down. I hated grease so I kept it out of my hair.

I knew Dallas,ponyboy,soda,darry,two-bit and Steve. but there was someone else. when they came closer it was another boy.

He was small, and had dark hair and eyes. he had tan skin too. I went and shook hands with everyone except that boy.

"Come on Taijah, hug him" Dallas said pushing me towards him. "Teijah. and I don't know him" I said coming back.

"All right I'll introduce you to him" he grabbed my arm and pulled me over there. "Johnny" he looked up. "yeah" he asked quietly. "this is Teijah, sense your not gonna be in the rumble. you two should get to know each other" he said with a evil smile.

He looked at me and I looked at him then we both looked at dally. "see you two have the same look, how cute" he said walking back to Tim.

"What's with your face" I asked. he felt it. "I don't know" he said "my dad beats me so really I have no choice." he said sitting down. I felt bad. "awe that's horrible, why would he beat on a innocent tiny boy like you" I said sitting down beside him.

He smiled. "Johnny" I asked. "yeah Teijah" he said looking up "why do you still go back?" I asked looking down this time. "because, I have no where else." you could hear the tears coming when he was talking.

"Don't cry, hey you can stay at my place" I said getting up. he looked up. "your joking" he asked, "no" I said slowly, I mean it.

He got up. and we went for a walk. "so where do you live" he asked looking at me still walking. "with my brother, I don't remember the street though, you know Tim right?" I asked "always at the Curtis's yeah" he said looking over at something. It started raining

"It's cold" I complained, he took his jacket off and put it on my shoulders,it was silent for a while. "um we should head back, we'll get wet" Johnny said breaking the silence. "okay" I said turning around. he walked right beside me.

We got back to where the rumble was gonna be at. they were fighting, it scared me. I hugged Johnny. and he hugged back. "Johnny I'm scared" I said hugging him tighter.

"It's gonna be alright Teijah" that comforted me. he looked down at me the soc's started to run to there cars with bloody faces and it was all muddy from the fresh rain.

"That's right! Run!" All of the greasers yelled. then Dallas saw us. he walked over to us. "so how you two doing?" He asked bringing back that smile.

"Just talking" Johnny said looking at me. "about what" dally asked in a uncomfortable tone. "about my brothers" I said quickly, to end the conversation. "okay" he said walking away. "Teijah!" Tim yelled. "yeah" I yelled walking over to him.

"I'm gonna go to a party for the rumble" he said "okay" I said Turing around. "come on Johnny" I said talking his hand. we walked down the street, and into the house.

He sat down on the couch. "I'm gonna change, I'll get you some of tims or curlys shirts" he nodded and I walked up stairs. 'where will he sleep? I know tims room.' I thought to myself. I got in my pjs and went down stairs with Tims pjs in my hands for Johnny.

"Here there a little to big but they are sure better than what you've go on" he chuckled and I smiled. "the bathrooms over there" I pointed over to the guest bathroom. "okay" he said walking over to it.

I sighed and sat down on the couch. It was quiet till he came out, in the pjs they where a bit big witch made him look cute. "aw you look cute" he smiled and blushed. "sit down" I patted one hand on the couch. he sat down and looked at me. "so" he asked, "I don't know" I said getting up. "come on" I said walking up the stairs. we walked and I pointed to tims room. "you'll sleep there, tims not gonna be home for tonight and my parents are in California" he nodded and I walked into my room.

I went on my laptop. looking at stuff because I was bored. a loud crack of thunder made me jump. and squeak, I guess Johnny heard so he came to the door. "johnny" I asked. "yeah you okay?" He asked. I shook my head no, he came in and laid next to me.

I closed my laptop after logging off, I laid down on my back. "Johnny" I said in a scared voice. "yeah" he asked, "are you going back?" I asked scared for him now too. "I don't know" he said then falling asleep. I moved closer to him to keep warm, and I fell asleep too.
