Today in class
I got put in a group with him
He's real smart
I'm not really smart.
His eyes are pretty.
I noticed him staring at me.
I just turned red.
He's really good at
Paying attention in class.
The teacher assigned
homework.
I'm going to his house

*****
I'm at his front door
Wow
This place is chaotic
There are like eight guys
Just running around
Half naked
He apologized
I told him there's no need
For apologies
He just grinned
And laughed
We sat down at a table
I met all of the gang
Up close
They're even tuffer
I like Johnny
He's innocent and sweet
But ponyboy, man.
There's something special about him
Steve gave me some cake
So I threw it at him
And started a food fight
I don't wanna go home.
I'm tempted to ask him
If I can stay here.
I think I will.

***

I spilled my heart out to him.
Everything.
About my drunk father,
And my dead mother.
He looked at me
And started to cry.
I did, too.
We just cried.
He ran to Darry and asked him.
Darry said yes,
Just no "funny business"
Sodapop grins wildly.
He slaps me on the back playfully.
Ponyboy made me a sofa bed.
I gave him a hug.
I told him he was real sweet.
He beamed.
I really like him.
He made me a sofa bed
I tried to sleep
But I couldn't.
I went out and sat on the front porch.
He came out.
Asked me if I was okay.
I sighed.
He asked if I needed anything.
I wasn't going to tell him
That I loved him.
So we sat out talking till about 2 am
When Darry came out
And started in on ponyboy.
I told Darry to stop.
He sighed and apologized.
Me and Ponyboy went inside.
I was about to lay down,
When he called me into his room.
He told me I could sleep in there.
I smiled.
He started to move towards the door.
I called him back.
I told him to stay.
He did.
We didn't have sex.
We just talked.
I honestly prefer the talking.
