An Outsider Love Story

Kidnap

I heard a rustling noise coming from the porch. I dragged my feet to the living room and looked out the window. It was Ponyboy. I let him in the house even though the door was unlocked. They don’t have a lock for their doors. Darry says he is not scared of anything.

“Hey Pony, What’s going on?” I asked.

“Nothing much where is everyone?”

“Your brothers went to work and I don’t know where the others are. Two-bit is supposed to come by.”

“Ok. I’m going to take a shower is that ok?”

“Sure I tell you when he gets here.”
“Ok.”

I watch TV. in the living room because I did everything and there is nothing else to do. It was getting to the point where I was bored of TV. So I took another short nap in Soda’s room. All of a sudden I heard the front door slam shut and some whispering. At first I thought it was Two-bit trying to scare me but he would have knocked on the door. I walked slowly in the living room but no one was there. I was freaking out now. What is going on?

“Two-bit are you here?” I asked frightfully.

“Pony is that you? This isn’t funny guys.”

I turned around and got punched in the face. I looked up to see what hit me and it was James. He tries to grab hold of me but I kicked him in the stomach and ran in the kitchen. Another soc got me and was covering my mouth with a rag and were trying to tie my hands behind me. They had Pony to but he was knocked out. They took him to the car. They are not going to hurt me like last time. I kicked them and got one arm free and untied the other. They hit me again and tied both my arms and legs up so I couldn’t walk. This is not happening. They are breaking, entering and kidnapping. Three charges already and they are beating me to death. I think that counts as one. They are 110% breaking treaty right now.

Thank god Two-bit got here. He was beating them up but the red head soc that was there when me and Kathy got jumped came up and sneak attacked him. I was screaming now but no one could hear me because of the rag. It tasted like alcohol. I was getting very tired and dizzy. James picked up a vase and swigged it at Two-bit. He was gone. Someone said to shut me up but that made me scream even louder and I got hit in the head and was down. Why do they want us? Why mess with us? What did I ever do to them?

I woke up in an old abounded factory. I was tied to a chair and had a new rag in my mouth. The same taste but different color. James came from behind me. He had that dangerous smile that Dally has. I am scared now. He tells me not to scream but he is going to take the rag out and if I scream then I will never see the gang or Soda again. He takes the rag out and I stayed quiet. He knew that would work. Blackmailer.

“That’s better. I like this, where I don’t have to fight you to get some answers and that you get to live.” He says as he sits in the chair in front of me.

“How do you know Soda?” I asked harshly.

“His brother Darry, went to school with my brother. You could say they were friends.” He stares at me.

“Where is Pony?”

“The guy that we took with you?”

“Yea that guy and where is Two-bit?”

“Pony is in a different room. He is very ….difficult ….. to talk to but we left the other guy to be the messenger for your boyfriend.”

“You are so cruel, heartless, stalker, blackmailing, cold blooded soc.” I told him as I looked him straight in the eye.

“I know.” He winked at me. He put his arm around me.
