I'm going to start naming the chapters if you couldn't tell.
I wake up the next morning and it feels weird. Empty. Even though Randy is here it still feels empty. My parents where always gone but this was different, They where never coming back. I miss them randy thinks I don't care about any of this and that I don't miss them but I do. He isn't taking this so well himself I heard him crying last night cause I woke up a few times. The thing is I don't have anyone so I don't really know why he is crying he still has his mom. Why can't he go live with her and I can find somewhere else to live. I don't know I just wanna get out of this house.
I got dressed in almost all black I had just a little touch of color. But that color was red, Nothing to bright. I also braided my hair. I went downstairs when I heard my name being called by randy, "Delilah!" "What?" He looked at me head to toe. "What are you wearing?" "Clothes duh." I rolled my eyes. "Oh...okay. do you want breakfast?" "No I'm going out somewhere." He was about to ask where when I stopped him. "I'm not telling you where just mind your business." Then I left.
As I'm walking, I don't know where though, I started to remember last night and my mood seems to lighten a bit. Dally kissed me last night. I got this weird really excited feeling that only lasted a couple seconds then I went back to thinking about my parents. Everything is pretty crazy in my mind from all this. I start to think of a good thing it goes right back to the bads things.
This is all so hard I needed someone to talk to just to get everything off my mind but I don't want to go to anyone. What do I do? What do I do? I keep asking myself. I ended up at the train tracks there where a few socs on the way who called me names but they didn't bother me I just ignored them. Anyway as I got closer I saw someone, a boy. I didn't recognize him at first until I got closer. It was...uh...well I can't remember his name but what ever. I went up to him. "Hey Delilah right?" He asked. "Yeah, what are you doing here?" I sat down. "You don't mind if I sit with you right?" "No of course, Your fine." "Okay" I gave him a slight smile. "So why are you here?" I reminded him of my question. "Right, I...uh...just needed to get out of the house." "Is everything alright? You can talk to me you know." "My brothers, pony and darry, got into another argument." "Oh, well they are brothers so what do you expect." That came out a little rude. He looked over at me. "Its different though they are ALWAYS getting into arguments cause darry expects so much from pony...to much actually." Soda His name is soda! Finely I remembered. "So enough talking about my problems, why are you here?" "I...I just need to think ya know?" "Yeah you had a horrible weekend haven't you?" "Yeah..." a I felt a tear and then whiped it away. Soda pulled me into a hug and I started to really cry. Then I tried to stop cause I'm getting soft and I'm supposed to be tough. I just couldn't stop the tears where taking over me. "Soda" I said pulling away a few minutes later. "We're friends right?" "Of course." I smiled, like a full smile now nothing fake. "Alright I better be heading home now. Darry is probably worried." "Okay and thanks soda." "No problem." Then he left.
I stayed at the trian tracks for a while just thinking and crying. I had my head on my knees when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I jumped. "Randy! You scared me. What do you want?" I whiped away my tears. "Sorry, I was coming to check on you. You've been gone for awhile." Since when does he care how long I'm gone? "I'm fine leave me be." "Are you sure you know you can talk to me?" "I'm fine." "You can not be 'fine' mom and dad just got in a plane crash and your 'fine'?!" He started to get louder and louder. "Fine then don't talk to me I don't care!" "Randy--" "Bye Delilah." Then he walked off. I don't know what to do now. More importantly I don't know where to go or who to go to. All I could do right now is cry.
After awhile of crying I went to Brooke's cause she would let me stay the night...hopefully. She answered before I could even knock. "Delilah what's wrong?" She wasn't there when I found out what happened. I have to explain to her and I don't even know if I can get the words out. "M-my parents g-got into a plane c-crash" I started to cry agian. Brooke sat me down and hugged me. "I'm sorry to hear that." I finally calmed down after a little while. "Me and randy got into a slight argument do you mind if I stay here tonight?" "Sure." "Thanks your a good friend." "I know." I cracked a smile.
