same love

Chapter nine, ouch

Johnny's p.o.v.

I lay on my back in the lot, watching the stars, Pony wasn't with me. Darry would'nt let him out this late on a school night  I want him to be here with me, I want to be with him. I'm debating weather or not i should get up and go to his house when a car pulls up, a cherry red mustang full of soc's, they jump out and walk up to me "hey grease" one of them growls at me, "I heard you were dating that Curtis boy, I don't like your kind in my town ".  "I'm not in your town". I snarl back "You're outside a your turf".  "Is that so?" One of them asks while another pulls out a knife, "I'm real scared of a skinny little greaser like you".  He stalks forward holding the knife out, one of them grabs me from behind and I'm kicking and trying to get free but they're stronger than I am. The one with the knife cuts my face and another hits me over the head with a beer bottle I start screaming for Pony or Dally or anyone to come help me but no one hears me. One hits me again and I see stars, I feel the knife at my throat and then the soc is pulled off of me I fall to the ground, I look up and see Dally. "Took you long enough". Thats all I have time to say before everything goes black.
