Love Is Hard To Find

I Need You

Darcy's POV

It's been a week...a rough dry cold week in Windrixville.

I haven't had any contact with anyone since the train ride over here.

I could feel my babies moving around poking and kicking playfully at my stomach.

May and Johnny were always off holding hands, watching the sunset, or even just going to the store together.

They loved each other and didn't want to be apart for too long.

It made me think of mine and Dallas' relationship...I really miss him.

I know by now he's probably heard the news and has tried to come and find me but was never successful.

I hope we see each other soon.

I bet Katie has gone high and low looking for us as well.

She would do anything to keep May and I safe and for us to disappear like this has got to be killing her.

She probably hasn't slept or ate much this entire week too worried about us.

I'm really hoping that Dad and Susan rethinks this whole situation.

I'm the one who was stupid enough to get pregnant at such a young age, but it should be my choice on wether or not to keep them or abandon them.

And I'm not going to make the same mistake that he made.

A Few Hours Later...

Our first day here, Johnny went to the store and bought a deck of cards.

Ponyboy and Johnny were real good at playing Poker but not as good as the Alexander sisters.

We were killing it except we let them keep the prize which was cigarettes.

Since, we could never smoke around Katie we decided never to try it.

And plus since I'm pregnant and all, it would be bad for my babies.

May said out loud, "Nice job guys but it's just not good enough."

As she laid out three aces and one King.

They all threw down their cards furious that they have not one.

That's when Ponyboy heard a noise coming from the bushes outside.

He raised his finger to his lips and shushed us all.

They all stood up as May helped me up and began to head toward the front door.

Ponyboy picked up a stick trying to be the brave one and slowly made his way toward the door with us slowly following.

The doors then opened on their own and Dallas walked in.

Taken back, he asked to Pony, "You gonna kill me with that?"

He dropped his stick as I said, "Dallas."

He asked really confused, "Darcy?....May?"

I came over to him pulling him into a long hug because I was so glad to see him.

He asked stuttering a little, "W-what are you guys doing here?"

I said to him which made him understand, "I had to go Dallas."
