The outsiders: burlesque

Chapter 9: johnny?

Jonathan parked in front of the gym and nudged me to go in "let's go" he said before getting out of his car and with me behind. He pushed the door open with a little bell ringing, he held the door for me as I walked pass him saying a small 'thank you' as we entered.

The place was huge despite what it looked on the outside. There were some people working out on treadmills or other mechanical things and lifting weights.

Jonathan waved a worker over, the male worker with a white muscle top walked towards us, his tan skin glisten in sweat and how his bleach blonde hair was a bit damp and how his golden eyes shine from the light was actually irresistible.

"He signed into yoga class in the after noon" Jonathan said while pointing at me. The guy nodded his head yes and took out a his phone and did some scrolling on it "Yeah, What's your name kid?" His voice was rough and smooth that it made me melt just by listening to it "p-Ponyboy Curtis" I stuttered and he nodded before scrolling more down on his phone "Ah, here you are" he said before he tapped on his screen "Ponyboy Michael Curtis, age 14, come with me" he said before guiding me to another room.

I looked at Jonathan and said a quick 'bye' as he waved at me before I disappeared into the other room.

We walked down a hallway, as the main room music sound muffled and distance as we enter another at the end of the hallway, he opened the door for me "In here" he said.

I walked pass him and saw mostly girls inside getting they're yoga mats ready. I walked in and a women with long shiver hair and blue baby eyes walked towards me "hi, I'm ryann and I'll be your yoga instructor" she said sweetly as she guided me to the front of the room.

"Here's your mat" she said before handing me a blue mat as she pointed to the ground "this we'll be your spot until the end of the month, Ponyboy" I nodded my head yes as I lied my mat on the ground.

I sat down and waited patiently for everyone to settle down and for the yoga instructor to get started.

"Hi" I turned around to see a girl with grey eyes, black hair and a cute small figure sat beside me with her purple mat "my name is Lisa, what's yours?" She asked smiling sweetly.

I blushed and smiled at her "m-my name is Ponyboy" I said and she chuckled a bit "nice name, I wish I had a creative name like that" she said smiling.

"Alright class, let's get started on some stretches"

(Time skip)

I rolled up my mat and placed it on the shelf where everyone put theirs. Lisa walked beside me "so Ponyboy, what your going to do?" She asked me and I shrugged "go to my friends since work starts at 7" I said a she nodded her head "Ah, maybe you and me should grab lunch some other day" she said with a warming smile and she patted my shoulder "see ya Ponyboy" she said before leaving me.

I smiled and walked out the door, as I walked I waited outside for Jonathan who apparently is late. I looked around the area for a bench. I spotted a transit bus stop bench and sat on it.

Then a women looked at me from across the street and she whispered something to her friend while looking at me. I removed my gaze from her and looked around.

A few people looked at me strangely, some people pointed at me or did a disgusted face. Then, I felt someone sit beside me, I looked over and saw the last person I wanted to see at a time like this.

"Ponyboy?" Tim shepherd said while eyeing me, I nodded my head yes "hey Tim" I greeted with a shy smile. Tim pulled out his cigarette from his mouth and blowed out smoke.

"Nice outfit" he smirked, I looked down and blushed red, I pulled my knees up to my chest and hugged it, trying to cover up much as I can.

He chuckled "that doesn't help much pony" he said before placing his cigarette back on his lips. I looked at him "what? Why?" I asked and he pointed at my legs "shows almost of your crotch" he whispered.

I blushed and quickly placed my legs back on the ground "Oh" I mumbled. Tim nodded his head and blew out another smoke and threw it on the ground and stepped on it.

"Where your going?" He asked me, I shrugged "just waiting for my friend" I said and tim hummed "can I ask you something pony?" I looked him and nodded my head yes "I'm all ears" I said and he crossed his arms "why are you wearing that outfit?" He asked me.

I blushed lightly and shrugged as I moved my gaze from him "my friend gave it to me, it was the only thing he had" I said and Tim hummed "So, Your guy friend is a cross dresser?" He asked me.

I shook my head no "he's not, it was his other friend who lives with him" I explained and he nodded his head yes "Ok"

Then a blue mustang parked in front of us "shit pony, get behind me" Tim whispered while pulling me behind him. I stopped him "no it's okay, it's just my friend" I said an Tim looked at me suspiciously.

"What?" He asked and Jonathan rolled down his window "Come on pony, we don't have all day" he said quite impatiently. I nodded my head yes and went to the passenger seat.

We drove off leaving a confused Tim waiting at the bus stop.

Jonathan hummed a lovely tune, I looked at him and watch him hum until he glanced at me and stopped "what?" He asked with a small smile and a light blush on his cheeks.

I grinned "What was that tune?" I asked and Jonathan licked his lips and glanced at me again before looking back at the road "I just made it up" he said uneasy about answering.

The whole ride was silence, the radio wasn't on, the windows weren't open or even Jonathan humming. The air grew tense as Jonathan hands grew tight around the wheel.

He parked in front of my house, I looked at Jonathan confused "um.. Jonathan?" I asked and he didn't looked at me "what?' He asked sternly.

I looked at my house and back at Jonathan "Jon... I..I can't go... I can't go inside... like.. like this" I said while gesturing to my outfit. He gritted his teeth "just go kid" he muttered.

I looked at him with sympathy "Jonathan...?" I asked and he yelled "get outta here!" I was taken aback by his raise voice. I shook in fear and whimpered "Ok" I mumbled as I opened the door and closed it.

The minute I closed it, he drove off, leaving me in the dust. I rubbed my arms, uncomfortable about being in the open with little clothing I had on.

I walked up the steps and opened the door "ponyboy?" I looked up and saw a shock, blushed Johnny who looked at me weirdly

'Oh boy'
