Staying Gold: Forever Gold

Sequal Chapter 8

"Well, well, well. Look what we have here.",Randy said.  He was the only soc around. "It's that famous greaser broad."

"If I'm so famous, what's my name then?", I asked.

"Doesn't matter. I say I'll have a little fun with you.", Randy suggested.

"Come near me and I'll skin you.", I threatened.

"Oh yeah? With what?", he asked. I reached into my back pocket for my blade and couldn't find it.

"Looking for something?", he grinned holding up my blade. He walked towards me and I began to scream. He got right  in front of my face and moved his hand towards my cheek.

I woke up gasping for air, terrified.

"What's going on?", Pony asked, sitting up beside me.

"Nothing it was a nightmare.", I answered.

"Wanna talk about it?",he asked.

"No, not really.", I answered. He lit a cigarette and began smoking. "Mind if I take a couple puffs?" He handed me the cigarette and my nerves began to settle. I handed it back to him, and we just sat there.

"Sure is cold tonight.", Pony said.

"Yeah it is.", I replied. He put out his cigarette and pulled me into his lap.

"I'm sorry I couldn't help you out earlier.", He apologized.

"Don't be. There wasn't anything you could do.", I reassured.

"Yeah, but if I had checked the house better, or something, Randy wouldn't have tried to rape you. We wouldn't be up in the middle of the night having this discussion.", He said.

"You couldn't have stopped me from having a nightmare. Besides, I like this. Us being together like this. It's comforting.", I replied. He kissed my cheek and I turned my head towards him and stared into his greyish green eyes. I leaned in and kissed him.

"I love you.", I whispered through the kiss.

"I love you, too.", He replied. We broke the kiss and just stared at each other.

"It's really cold.", I complained. He took me off of his lap and laid down. I looked at him confused.

"Are you going to lay with me and let me snuggle you or what?", he asked. I smiled and bit my lip as Iaid down beside him. He pulled me into him and held me. Ocassionally kissing my neck or cheek. I closed my eyes and before I knew it I drifted back to sleep.

I woke up again and was freezing. I looked over and Pony wasn't there. No wonder I'm freezing. I got up and walked in the living room, where Darry was about to leave with Soda, Steve, and Two-Bit.

"Darry, I'm cold.", I complained.

"Well, it is December.", he replied.

"Is the heat on?", I asked.

"It broke.", Soda answered. I sighed.

"So, am I going to freeze all day long?", I asked.

"No, you always have Pony for body warmth.", Two-Bit answered and winked. I rolled my eyes and noticed Pony blushing at the doorway to the kitchen. I walk towards him and wrapped my arms around his waist. He returned by pulling my face into his chest. I was getting warm.

"Is it working?", Steve asked.

"Mhm.", I answered smiling.

"Hey, lock this door. I can't believe I actually said that. Only open it for any of the gang.", Darry instructed.
