So, after we went back inside, I started crying. Either I was really upset, or I was having hormon problems. But whatever it was, I didnt like it. Everyone was comforting me, telling me its all right.
"Baby, whats the matter?" Darry asked.
Wait, did he just call me baby?
"I-I just dont know what to do, with Bob and Randy after me, and I dont know how im going to tell my parents." I cried.
Darry took me in his arms and hugged me.
"Everythings going to be alright." Steve whispered as he put his hand on my shoulder.
"How do you know?" I cried.
"Well you know mom and dad, they're not so mean. And we can take care of Bob and Randy for you."
"How?" I sniffled.
"Well..... We can....."
"Fight them again?" Ponyboy suggested.
"That doesnt work though, they will still come back." Darry said.
"What about go to the police?"
"That would work, but they would only keep them for like a week or so."
"Run away?"
"Naw, we cant just run away."
"No, I mean Two-Bit and Robin."
"Im not letting my sister run away." Steve snapped.
"Well then, what are we going to do?" I asked.
"I, honestly dont know." Two-Bit sighed.
I ended up falling asleep while Two-Bit watched Mickey Mouse. I ended up waking up at 2 am. I was having a dream about Bob and Randy. Everyone was gone, except Two-Bit and I, we were sleeping. I got up off the couch to get some water, when I ran into Ponyboy.
"What are you doing?" He asked in a whisper.
"Getting water. What are you doing?"
"Getting water for myself."
"Oh, so why are Two-Bit and I still here?"
"Two-Bit and Steve both attempted to wake you up, but you didnt. So Darry just let you and Two-Bit stay. Steve said he will tell your guys' parents when he got home."
"Oh, I hope they dont get mad.."
"I dont think they will."
"I hope not." I got some water, "Well im gonna go back to sleep. Ill see you in the morning."
"Okay, good night." He said hugging me.
I tip-toed back to the couch, and I slowly layed down, so I wouldnt wake up Two-Bit.
The next morning I woke up to Darry making breakfast.
"Wakey wakey." I heard Ponyboy say.
I sat up.
"Good morning babe." Two-Bit smiled.
"Morning." I yawned.
"Would you like some eggs?" Darry asked.
"Yes, please."
Darry came over to me with the plate with an egg on it.
"Thank you." I smiled.
"You're welcome." He smiled back.
I took a bite of the egg, and I fell in love.
"Wow, Darry. This is really good. The best ive ever had." I smiled.
"Why thank you." He smiled back.
"Welcome." I smiled.
"So," Two-Bit said scooting next to me, "When are you going to tell your parents?"
"I dont know. Maybe today. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe next month. Maybe while im giving birth."
Just then Steve busted through the door.
"Hello all!" He said with a smile on his face.
"Wow, someones' happy." Ponyboy said.
"I just slept good, thats all."
"No, its something else." I said standing up, "You're never this happy. Come on, tell me." I smiled.
"No, its really nothing."
"Uh-huh."
"Really."
"Right, okay whatever." I walked back to the couch.
"I have a girl!" Dally said walking through the door.
"Really?" I said.
"Yeah, shes amazing. She loves me for me. I feel like ive got a good one."
"Who is it?"
"Your friend Nancy."
My smile slowly turned to a frown, "Oh.."
"Whats wrong?" He asked.
"Oh, nothing. Im happy for you."
I really wasnt. Nancy, even though she was only 15, she was a terrible girlfriend. Every guy she dated, she ended up taking a lot of money from him. She was like a professional gold digger. Thats probably why I dont talk to her much any more. Mainly because she used to always ask me to buy her stuff. Even though I really never had money. I didnt know how to tell Dally. He was really happy that he finally got a girlfriend. I didnt want to break his happiness by telling him. But I didnt want him to get hurt, after Nancy steals from him.
"Dally.." I sighed.
"Yes?" He said with a smile.
"Ive got to talk to you about Nancy."
"Oh sure. What do you want to talk about?" He smiled.
"Can we talk in private?"
"Sure." He said walking back out the door.
I followed him.
"Listen Dally, about Nancy."
"Shes so wonderful." He smiled.
"Yeah, shes wonderful."
"You see? So what did you want to talk about." He had a huge smile on his face.
I really couldnt go on with this. He was so happy. And ive never broken anyone. Ever.
"Just, treat her good. Shes fragile." I forced a smile.
"Oh I will," He hugged me, "Ill treat her the best."
