Sodapop and Steve headed to work while I decided to head back home. I wanted to be in my own home and in my own environment. "Going home Tracy?" Ponyboy asked me. "Yea I kinda just wanna relax and be alone for a little." "Ok if you need anything just call" Darry said to me. I nodded and we all parted our ways. "I think you and Pony would make a cute couple." Sarah laughed putting her arm around me. "Do you really think?" I said looking back at Pony who happened to be looking at me. We both turned away quickly. We got home and finally cleaned ourselves up. I put on an over sized sweatshirt and some leggings. I threw my hair up into a bun and added a hair bow of course. I was sitting on my bed reading my favorite book for the third time. Actually it's the only book I read, I'm not much of a reader un like Pony. I dozed off when Sarah ran in jumping on me. "Sarah what do you want!" I moaned pushing her off me. "Ponyboy is here to see you!" She laughed running out of the room. What was he doing here? Maybe he needs help with homework which is rare because he's much smarter then me. I looked at myself in my mirror but it's not like I really cared, it's just Ponyboy. I walked to my door. "Hey what are you doing here?" I asked him looking him up and down. He was wearing a white t-shirt that fit him great and some old jeans. "I want you to come watch the sunset with me." Ponyboy had this interest in watching sunsets. He usually did it alone so I was surprised he asked me. "Ok why not!" I said slipping on my converse. We walked up the hill by our house and sat down under a big oak tree. I've never really payed much attention to the sunset. I turned to face him, "this really is beaut-" his lips pressed to mine. After a few seconds he pulled away. My heart was beating so loud I was sure he could hear it. I looked at him, his eyes were full of worry. "See you tomorrow Tracy" he said scurrying away. "P-Pony wait!" I said calling after him, but he was gone. I walked back to my house. When I opened the door I was greeted by Sarah and Sodapop on the couch. "Hey where's Pony?" Soda asked me. I just kinda looked at him walking up stairs to my bedroom. I flopped down onto my bed. Did Ponyboy really like me? Why did he run away after? Am I a bad kisser? He sure wasn't. Gosh is he beautiful. Wait, am I growing feelings for Ponyboy Curtis
