Ponyboy's POV
I and Johnny were walking around the neighborhood.
I was gushing about what happened with Curly when Johnny reminded me,
"Hey, Pony man don't you got a boyfriend?"
"Oh yeah, we just haven't been doing too hot ya know. He doesn't do much for me and it's not like he's locked up or anything. So who knows what's going on with him."
I sighed in frustration thinking about him.
Just then I bumped into someone and it turned out to be the one and only Curly.
He gives me a stupid smirk and greets me.
"Hey, there stranger. Didn't think I'd run into you so fast."
I was too busy looking into Curly's eyes that I forgot about Johnny.
He nudged me on my side and made a face that basically said "Is that Curly?"
I snapped out of my trance-like state. "Ah yes, Curly this is my best friend Johnny."
Curly looked at him and said, "Ain't you the one that killed the soc?"
Johnny rubbed the back of his neck. He didn't like being remembered for that but he couldn't really make anyone forget.
"Uh yeah, I am. Is that what everyone thinks when they see me or hear of me?"
"Well of course. It was next level that you did that. You should be proud of it."
Johnny just kinda shrugged not really feeling proud of it but not wanting to be rude either.
"Well, guys I gotta head out, gotta help my brother with some very legal things."
He winks at me and chuckles before walking off.
I was too flustered to actually say anything back and I only reacted when Johnny snapped his fingers in front of my face.
"Pony you sure you still dig your boyfriend?"
"O-oh yeah definitely we're just going through a rough patch right now but things will be better soon. I just gotta stop letting Curly get into my head."
Johnny just sighed,
"Whatever you think is best for you then."
We kept walking until we got to a diner and had some milkshakes.
A few hours later
I was just about to head into bed when the phone began to ring.
It was awfully late so it was surprising but I picked it up anyway.
"Hello?"
"Hey Ponyshit I'm actually relieved you picked up and not one of your scary brothers."
Curly softly chuckled.
"What's up man is everything okay? Did you get injured again?"
"Nah none of that, honestly I'd prefer it to be that. So...shit might've happened between Dally and your boyfriend."
"My boyfriend cheated on me with Dallas?!"
"Oh god no, I don't want to see that image in my head, sorry should've worded that shit better, more like Dallas almost beat the life out of your boyfriend because he was getting a little bit too hot and heavy with some dumb blonde broad. There ain't a no better way to find this out but I thought I should tell you before he tries to say something else."
I didn't say anything.
I was too shocked to do so.
My boyfriend of ten months and who I've known for seven years cheating on me with a broad.
My brain couldn't comprehend it.
I didn't know whether I wanted to scream and cry or if I wanted to let Dallas just kill the guy.
Curly snapped me back into reality,
"Hey Pony you all good there? Haven't done anything stupid or passed out right?"
"Uh no, I'm still here and alive, just in shock in all honesty. I'll call you later Curly. I think I just need to think."
"You sure man? I don't wanna hear from no one that you did something stupid or died."
"Yeah, I'll be fine. I promise."
I hung up the phone and walked to our shared room and just fell onto the bed.
I started feeling tears run down my cheeks and I just wanted the world to swallow me whole at that moment.
I felt like shit.
I couldn't really do anything else except cry.
I screamed, punched my pillow, and cry my eyes out.
'I hate him. I can't believe I trusted him. Ten months of dating down the drain and seven years of knowing each other and being friends wasted. Stupid fucking asshole. I'm so stupid. I should've taken him staying away as a sign. Bump in the road, I can't believe I actually thought that. He knew how I felt about unhealthy relationships and my sexuality and he just used it all against me. Fucking asshole. I hate him.'
I kept screaming and crying until I basically passed out.
Around five am I heard a knock at my window.
I slowly opened my eyes and I was surprised at who it was.
