Chapter 31:
PONY POV
"You know the rumble in four days?" I asked Arizona as we were sitting on the couch. I was referring to the rumble that was happening in four days because Dallas killed Randy for Cherry. " Ya why?" replied Arizona. " Ari I don't think you ought to be in this rumble, you might get hurt." I told her. She looked at me and pulled my arm around from her. " I can fight Pony." She said angrily standing up and staring at me. " I just don't want you to get hurt." I yelled back at Arizona. We were Turning it into a scream fest. " I can do it Ponyboy!" She yelled at me. " No Ari you can't and you shouldn't. I'm a boy trying to protect my girl from getting hurt why don't you get that?" I replied. " I know what you're trying to do but you're wrong." Arizona yelled at me. " If I'm so wrong than why are you with me?" I added. " I care about you Ponyboy that's why but I need to be in this rumble." Arizona kept going. " Fine be in the rumble and get hurt." I answered her and she looked at me,angrily. " I'm going to be in this rumble whether you like it or not!" Yelled Arizona and " I won't get hurt." She kept going. " I don't want you to get hurt don't you get that?" I said to Arizona. " I understand that Pony but I have to fight... And also I'm tough enough." Arizona kept going again. "No you're not. You aren't tough even for a rumble." I Said not realizing what I said. " If I'm not tough enough than why Do you care, it doesn't affect you." Said Arizona. " I'm done with you doing things like this." I said looking at Ari. "If you're done than I'm done!" Arizona yelled at me before running out the door with tears in her eyes. I tied to call after her but there was no use.
BACK TO EMILY POV
I was sitting with Johnny on the couch watching Mickey Mouse when I heard the doorbell ring. I told Johnny yo stay put and I went to the door and opened it to find a crying Arizona. " Hey Ari come in, what's wrong?" I said. She started to sob and talk but all I heard was Ponyboy,yell,fight and ran. She sat down with Johnny and I. " What's wrong Ari?" We asked Arizona who was now sobbing. " Ponyboy and I broke up..." Ari said while sobbing. " OMG why?"I asked her while hugging her. " We were fighting about how I should be able to fight in the rumble. He doesn't think I should. He said he was done and I agreed and ran out!" Said Arizona between sobs. I hugged her and Jihnny and I comforted her. " Babe you have been super quiet don't you agree that Ari should be able to fight?" I asked Johnny staring at him. " I love you, Emily and Arizona you're awesome but I agree with Ponyboy. Girls shouldn't rumble... It's dangerous and you two could get hurt." Said Johnny eyeing us girls. " Really you don't think we should be in this rumble?" I said standing up. Johnny stood up,too. Arizona stopped crying and was still sitting looking at us. " I don't think so." Answered Johnny truthfully. " I get that you don't want me to get hurt but I can fight Johnny. My brother started this fight and I will help finish it!" I yelled at a surprised Johnny. He looked at me and yelled, " You should not be in this fight,Babes!" I looked towards Johnny and smirked before yelling, " I fight with you because I'm right and your wrong. We need as many people as we can. Arizona and I can fight that's final." Arizona modded towards me but didn't get involved. Johnny and I kept yelling at each other and eventually Johnny left and went to Ponyboy or at least I thought so. " Is everything ok Emily?" Arizona asked me and I nodded. " Coupled only fight because they love each other." I said looking at Arizona who nodded. " I'm sorry you and Johnny are now fighting." managed Arizona. " It's okay Ari." I told her to try and reassure. " Can I spend the night?" asked Arizona and I nodded before leading her upstairs.
