Ponyboys pov:
We were at the drive in watching a movie, Dallas Me and Johnny snuck in together. It would have been just me and Johnny. We knew neither of us could've defended ourselves if we ended up getting jumped by some socs. The movie ended, if I'm gonna be honest it wasn't that good and I only agreed to come because Johnny was coming. I looked over at Johnny who was fully asleep. I felt really bad for him, he's been staying out in the lot because his parents drinking had only gotten worse. He would always tell me how the smell gave him a headache. I offered him sleep at my house but he refused every time. I slightly shook him since the movie was over. I was careful not to shake him too hard since he was a really jumpy person. Shoot, he would probably jump at his own shadow. He squinted and looked around
"Huh…" His voice was quiet since he'd just woken up. Then again he was always more on the quiet side. He looked around slightly confused.
"We were watching a movie and you fell asleep" I pat him on the shoulder. He was fully awake now and sat up, Dallas sat up as well. Dallas went who knows where, probably off to bucks. Johnny began walking to the lot.
"Johnny, wait.." He turned around
"Johnny, come sleep at my house. It's clear you're not getting much sleep here" He paused for a moment before speaking. I didn't care what he said, he was sleeping comfortably tonight. Im not gonna see him curled up under some newspaper for a blanket ever again. I sure hope not.
"I wouldn't wanna be a burden though…" He looked to the ground playing with his hands
"No, I insist." He agreed. My house wasn't far from the lot so it didn't take long for us to get there. He brought him inside and closed the door behind me gently. Sodapop was at Steve's house. Darry must have been asleep. I was surprised he wasn't awake waiting for me to get home so he could yell at me. I turned to Johnny and looked him up and down. His clothes were all worn out and had dirt on them.
"Need a change of clothes?" It was more a statement than a question. He definitely needed a change of clothes.
"No I'm good I don't ne- " I cut him off
"Yeah you do" I walked to my room to get him new clothes,I nodded then to make sure they were clean and not someone I wore for five days and our back in my closet.He sat down on the couch. A walked out handing the clothes to him. He walked to the bathroom to put them on.
Johnny's pov:
I went into the bathroom and closed the door. He took off the shirt I had on, it had a whole bunch of dirt stains on it..gross. I honestly couldn't remember the last time I took that shirt off. Know it sounded gross but I wasn't gonna take it off and go shirtless in the empty lot. I put on a Ponyboys shirt. It was a little big on me. One, because ( even though I'm older) Ponyboy was slightly taller than me. And two, Ponboy looked at his baggy clothes. I never got why but now I do, it was more comfy. I put the sweatpants on that he gave me and picked my dirty clothes up from the bathroom floor. I walked out the living room and ponyboy took my dirty clothes and put them in a laundry basket. He sat on the couch next to me and softly smiled. I got a funny feeling in my stomach but I pushed it back.
"You don't mind sleeping on the couch do you?"
"Of course. Anything is better than out there in the lot" A layed down on the couch and he gave a pillow and blanket. A real blanket..I was so used to using my jaket or newspaper as a blanket I forgot how comfy real blankets where.
"Night cade."
"Goodnight pony.." I drifted off to sleep. That was probably the best sleep I'd ever gotten for a while. I jolted up from Two-bit them slamming the door. I groan, rubbing my eyes.
"Damn it two-bit I told you not to slam the door.." I hear Ponyboy from the kitchen. Twobit shrugged, he started ranting about something that no one was listening to. He pulled a bear from the fridge. Pony walked into the living room and sat next to me. I sure did remember that smell. I didn't like it either. Luckily Ponboy came and started in between us.
"Sleep well?"
"The best I've ever slept in a while" He softly laughed. I got that funny feeling in my stomach again. It confused me but pushed it back again.
