The Outsiders: Through Different Eyes

Chapter 5

"Babes,Pony get up!" said Johnny shaking the two of us awake. " Oh hey Johnnnycakes." I told my boyfriend and Ponyboy stood up tiredly," What time is it?" he asked. " I don't know Pony I feel asleep,too."replied Johnny and Ponyboy got ready to go back to his house."I better get going." he stated heading in the direction of his house. "Emily and I will be here." Johnny and I said together. "Come if you get too cold!"shouted Ponyboy as he headed home. Johnny and I laid back down and my head was on his shoulder. We both went back to sleep and were sleeping fine until Ponyboy yelled and fell on top of us...

"We're running away." said Ponyboy breathlessly. We, all three, ran until we stopped at some trashcans and a chain link fence similar to the run we ran into the socs near the drive in earlier that night. "Ponyboy what happened?" I asked smoking a cancer stick. " Darry hit me... he really hit me." replied Ponyboy and I suddenly turned annoyed. " What the heck?" I yelled loudly and Ponyboy said, " I'm scared man." "Don't be your scaring me." replied a nervous Johnny. "Let's go to the park maybe you can cool off enough to go home." I suggested and we began to walk to the park. "I'm freezing..." said Ponyboy. "Why didn't you bring a jacket,stupid?" I asked him sounding exactly like my brother Dallas. We were walking to the park in silence when Johnny asked," What if something bad happens to us?" "Nothing will you two." I said tuffly. "I forgot I have the toughest girlfriend in Tulsa." said Johnny and I laughed. "You mean in the state,Johnnycakes?" I said smirking. "Of course." said Ponyboy as we entered the park. The same blue mustang pulled up at the edge of the park and the socs exited the car. Ugh I thought to myself.
