The Doctors Daughter (DISCONTINUED)

Johnny's POV

 The gang had just dropped me off at the front of my house, and I couldn't get my mind off of Melody. I had spent most of the day talking to her, and I barely talk, ask anyone! She was crazy, kind, and sensitive. I actually felt like banging my head on a pole or something for what had happened. I asked about why her eyes nearly glow, and she seems kinda self-concicouss about it, (which was kinda cute), and I was about to say that the way her highlight matched her eyes was really pretty, but of course, I had to go and get all shy and awkward about it, and ruin the moment. I always ruin the moment- my thought were interrupted as I heard shouting coming from my house. Great. The shouting just reminded me of who I was, a socially awkward kid who everyone pitied because their dad beat them. Story of my life. If Melody ever found out about my dad.....why do I care? It's not like I like her or anything. Sure, she was pretty, but if I ever told her that I had killed a guy, well, I didn't want to really think about her reaction. The shouting got even louder, so I decided to just not go home tonight. Its not like my parents would notice. They never notice me, they only know I exist when my mom is hollering at me, or my dad is whipping me. So I headed out to the lot. But I couldn't sleep, I just kept tossing and turning, and for some weird reason, thoughts of Melody kept popping into my mind. They way her eyes sparkled when she laughed, ugh, I get more sappy every day. Maybe reading Gone With The Wind every day at that church made me a romantic or something. The church, I winced as I remembered why me and Ponyboy had to hide out there in the first place, and how it had caught fire because of me. If only I had been more careful of where I had put my cigarettes.....anyway, I had been alone with my thoughts for so long that I had ended up at the park. The memories of this place, I winced again. I was about to turn away and leave when I saw something. Two bodies, laying on the ground. The blood drained from my face, and images of Bob's dead body raced through my mind. Shakily, I took a closer look. I did a double take when I saw that the bodies were Rubix and Claire, Melody's friends. My breath coming in quick gasps, no no no, not again, but then Rubix made a noise, and shifted onto her side, I relaxed as I realized that they were just sleeping. I was way too jumpy. But why were they here? Its weird that they would just be......Melody. Melody wasn't there! She was missing! What if someone took her, kidnapped her! Or what if she ran away, what if... Not thinking straight, I ran, thinking that if I ran fast enough, I could find Melody, and save her. But as I slowed down, I realized that running in a random direction wasn't going to get me anywhere. Maybe if I headed back, I could look for clues, or wake up Rubix and Claire, and ask them if they knew where she went. By the time I had walked back, The sun was starting to come up, tinging the gray clouds pink. I  stood by the fountain for a second, just looking at the sunrise, when I noticed a figure, walking into the park the opposite direction from me. I knew in a heartbeat that it was Melody. She had probably just gone for a walk or something. Melody sat down, still facing away from me, and watched the sunrise. I smiled. Boy was I tired, I hadn't even realized it until now. I had had my fair share of sleepless nights, but I had been running quite a bit, and I was rather exhausted. Still not wanting to go home, I headed back to the lot, careful to make sure that Melody didn't see me. This time I slept soundly, and had dreams of a blonde girl, with a blue highlight in her hair.
