Darry's POVI got out of work at 4 today, one hour earlier than Soda. I would have time to be alone with Pony, since he took the day off from school. Two-Bit said he would watch him, so I hopedthey already visted Johnny and Dally so he'll be home by the time that I get there. I parked and went inside. I opened the door to a surprisingly,and dissapointingly empty house. Isighed,but what did I expect?There was a six pack of beer on the living room table, it was old amd needed cleaning. But besides that it was pretty decent looking table. I use to drink in my teenage years just a littlebit, and I sneaked it so nobody knew. It was enough to make me drunk, and I did it once after Mom and Dad died. I went to work with a huge hangover,and almost killed myselfclimbing up a ladder,after that you could be sure I never drank again. But every once and a while I was tempted too. I didnt have work tommorow,maybe a could get away with just asip.I grabbed one and sat on the couch,staring at the full can. Just a sip woudnt hurt,God knows a deserve a break from my stressful schedule. I opened it and took a drink, it stung theback of my throat. I missed the addicting taste, the worry free manner it made you behave. No wonder Two-Bit gets drunk at every chance he gets. If I didnt have to take care of Ponyand Soda I would to, maybe not that much. I took another sip,well honestley,it was more of a gulp. I started thinking about Ponyboy,what did he do while he was at the church?I took another sip,and looked inside of the can. When did it become empty? I grabbed another can,opened it and drank. No one has to know, no one will know. I could drink the wholepack and get away with it. Who would know the differrence? Better yet,who would punish me if they did know? I had self control, I wouldnt do anything stupid like Two-Bit, I wouldntsay anything mean like Steve,and I wouldnt want to hurt anyone like Dally.Yeah, I told myself, I wouldnt be too bad drunk.Pony's POV"All leave ya here kid, I got some business to take care of",Two-Bit said as he walked me towards my house."Alright,seeya Two-Bit", I said waving him off. I opened the door and lookedat the clock, it was 5. I threw off my shoes at the entrance and headed towards the couch, then stopped dead in my tracks. Darry was sprawled out on the couch, 5 empty beer bottleswere lying on the floor.He had a sleepy, hazy look about him and had a beer in his hands."Hey Ponyboooy" he slurred."Hey Darry" I said nervously still on the doorway,I've never seen him drunk before and I didnt know how to act around him. I once spent the night at Two-Bit's house when he wasdrunk beyond his usual self, which was a lot considering its Two-Bit Im talking about. He started confusing me with somebody else and slugged me repeatedley,than he called me Cathyand pinned me down and kissed me. I was scared out of my mind that night,and then I tried to convince Two-Bit it was me and not anybody else. When I finally did get through to himhe said he was really sorry.After a while I finnally did forgave him and calmed myself down from jumping at everyones touch. I never told anyone, and Two-Bits been my buddy eversince, I was 10 then."C'mere,Ponyboy" he slurred smiling at me. He had a look on his face I couldnt make out. I walked over hesitantley,and sat down at a safe distance. He reached over and grabbed me,and then sat me down on his lap. He kissed my lower cheek, a little too close to my neck. I felt a shiver run down my spine,and then he wrapped his hands around my waist pulling mequestionally close to him. "Do you remember when you were five and I would sleep with you? When we were close?"I had forgotten about that,but I remembered it vaguely. I loved my brother more than Soda at that time, he was my hero. He would come in and smell my hair,and than snuggle up tome and help me sleep. I remembered how he would show me off to his friends, mostley his female friends. How they would hover over me and kiss me,and then Darry would save mefrom getting my cheeks pinched."Yeah, I remember Darry" I said, I think I sounded a little sad to."Why cant we be that close now?"he said sounding sleepily."I mean sure your bigger,but your still just as cute", he said as he cupped my face and kissed my cheek again, this time alittle to close to my lips. I felt a blush grow on my face as he stared at me intentley. "You look more and more like Soda everyday."I didnt know Darry thought I looked like Soda. "I dont know Darry", I said answering his previous question,trying to change the conversation. This was getting uncomftorable, eventhough I kinda liked it. He caressed my cheek with his thumb, and then pulled my face firmley towards his. I gasped a little,and he took notice to this."Dont worry Pony, I wont hurt you" he whispered,and then closed the remaining space between us. I felt a bolt of a electricity hit me when his lips came crashing into mine, starting atmy gut and making its way around the rest of my body. It was a soft innocent kiss, that soon developed into feverish hungry one in a moment of seconds. I was kissing him backbringing my hands around his neck, and then he started to kiss my pulse point making my breathe come jagged as I started to moan. When he found the place where the neck met theshoulder I lost it,throwing my head back as I tried to make more room for him to suck me hungriley. I couldnt believe he was donig this, he was my brother and this was wrong in manyways. But how could something that was so wrong feel so right?He parted from me and looked at me mischeviously,"Wanna go to my room?" I couldnt trust my own voice so I just nodded my head. He picked me up and I swung my legs around him,staring at my eyes as he ran his hand through my hair. With his other free hand he trailed his hand up and down my back, creating more shivers inside of me."Your so cute,you alwayswere the baby of this family",he cooed in my ear,and then kissed my neck. I was getting a little scared, how long would he let this continue once he had me in his room?Better yet,howfar would he let this go on?He cant hurt me, I thought to myself, he's my brother, he loves me. We finally reached his room."Dont be scared Pony,I wont hurt you.I love you",hewhispered in my ear as he closed the door behind us.
