I walked to Pony's house with my older brother, Dally, by my side. "Gotta cigarette on ya?" Dally asked. "Yeah," I took one out of my pocket and handed him one. He lit the cigarette and put it in his mouth. He rested his arm on my shoulder as we walked to Pony's house. Once we got there, we realized that Pony, his brothers, Darry and Soda weren't home. "Where are they?" I asked. "What do I look like some map to you?!" Dally said sarcastically. I chuckled and rolled my eyes. I noticed a few people walking towards Pony's house. I gasped once I saw Pony's neck bleeding. I ran to him and wrapped my arms around him, "Are you okay? What happened?" "He's fine, Angie. He just got jumped by some Socs," Darry said. (I'm not sure how to spell Socs, but it's short for Socials). "That's not fine!" I was about to jump on Darry, but Dally held me back. "Hey! Be nice," He said. I groaned before he put me down. "I'm okay, Angie," Ponyboy said. I nodded and looked at the ground. "Hey, you guys wanna go catch a movie?" Dally asked. "We'll come, won't we Pony?" Johnny said. "Yeah, I guess," Ponyboy said. Dally nodded and turned to be, "You comin, Angie?" "Sure why not?" I shrugged and followed Dally, Johnny and Pony. We all walked to the Nightly Double. We snuck in from the back. This isn't just any movie theatre, it's an outside movie theatre. Not many regular town folk go there, it's mainly greasers and Socs. Anyway, we found a seat towards the middle. Dally sat on the end, I sat next to Dally, then Pony and then Johnny. A few chicks sat in front of us. I rolled my eyes and groaned under my breath. As Dally was flirting with a red head, I watched the movie. "Get your feet off my chair and shut your trap!" The red head yelled at Dally. "Get lost hood!!" She yelled. Dally was a bit upset, but left. My jaw clenched. I hated to see girls that were mean to Dally. He's tough, but he can be a softy too. "You gonna start it on us now too," The red head turned around and looked at Ponyboy. He was startled but said, "No." They talked a bit. That made me...what's the word?...jealous?...no. I sighed and continued to watch the movie. Eventually, Dally came back with two Cokes. He handed them to the girls. The red head was pissed and threw her Coke on Dally. He just smirked, "Feisty, huh?" He tried to kiss her, but she struggled to get out of his grip. "Leave her alone, Dal," Johnny said. "What'd you say to me?" Dally asked and let go of the girl. "You heard me, leave her alone," Johnny spoke softly. "You little shit," Dally said under his breath. He got up and left, this time he didn't come back. I sighed and covered my face with my hands. "You his girlfriend?" The red head asked me. "No, I'm his sister. If you ever talk to him like that again my fist will be the last thing you see," I said through my teeth. "Calm down, Angie," Pony whispered. I rolled my eyes and stood up to go get a drink in a small store. I bought a Coke and walked back over to my seat only to noticed Ponyboy and Johnny sitting with the two girls. I ran my fingers through my messy brown hair and sat at my seat. I put my feet up on Pony's chair. He sat in front of me next to the red head, who's name happened to be Cherry Valance. God, I hate that girl. I wanted to claw her eyes out. Just then, Two-Bit came over and scared Johnny jokingly. I chuckled. Two-Bit is always turning something into a joke. Sometimes you need someone like that around. "Hey, Angie. What's up?" Two-Bit said to me. "Nothing much, you?" "Not much either," Two-Bit said. I slightly smiled. Two-Bit spoke to Cherry's friend and Johnny. Cherry stood up and asked Pony something, but I wasn't paying attention so I couldn't make out what she said. They boy got up and walked away. I glared at them. I guess I didn't realize my breathing became heavy because Two-Bit asked if I was okay. I just shook my head and watched the movie. Eventually, Pony and Cherry came back but my head was laid back, my eyes were closed and my mouth was slightly opened. I guess I fell asleep. Johnny tried to get me up, but I just groaned and fell asleep again. I felt my body being lifted. I didn't care who it was at the moment, I was fast asleep and cuddled my head in the chest.
