Johnny's birthday

"Happy birthday to you!" We all sang. It was Johnnycake's birthday and we just finished the party.
"Should we walk or drive? I can drive us if you want." Darry said as I helped put the extra cake in the fridge
" I'm not sure if I want to go right now, Darry. " I was Johnny's girlfriend for almost a year and a half. The gang was all very supportive and nice to me because we were together. But I sometimes wonder if the gang and I would ever talk if I had never met Johnny.
*flashback to one year earlier*
I was walking home from the Dingo at about three o'clock when a piece of scribbled on paper flew into my face. I had the habit of looking at my feet whenever I walked. Not in a sad mood kinda way, but just habit. So I was always walking into stuff.
"Hey. Stop that paper!" I heard someone yell to me.
As soon as I turned around, I was engulfed in a tall tan boys toned abbs. But I definitely didn't mind.
"Well hi there!" I said with a chuckle as he sprang up.
"Sorry... Thats... Uh... My homework. Yah that's my homework."
"I think I'm laying on it! " I said as I got up.
"Oh. Let me help you up." He was such a gentlemen!
"So... It was nice running into you." I said after a few seconds of weird silence.
"Yah... I guess. I hope we can do it again sometime." He seemed embarrassed . His cheeks turned a light shade of pink.
"Do you have wanna go to the drive-in sometime? Like... With me... As a... Um.."
"As a date?" I finished his sentence after he didn't know what to call it.
"I was just about to say that. But do you?" He smiled. Oh gosh, that smile practically stopped my heart.
"I'll meet you here tomorrow at nine.. I guess."
" I guess so. "
Once I got home, I thought I would never be happier! A cute boy just asked ME on a date!!!!
*End of flashback*
Sigh
"Hey... Um Sadie, it's time... Were all ready." Ponyboy walked in to give me my coat.
" Yup... I'm coming. " I said not wanting to face the next hour.
We all walked that day. We knew some of us had to sit in the back of Darry's truck if we drove, and it was too cold for that.
"Hey. Are you feeling ok?" Sodapop walked up to be to flash me one of his movie star smiles.
" after that winner smile, I'll be just fine! " I couldn't deny that Soda's smile could make anything fell like Christmas morning!
"alright *sigh*" Dally seemed relieved to be here.
We knew that he wouldn't come on any other occasion. So we made sure to stay for as long as possible.

As I walked up to the cracked old grave with Dally to put the roses, I felt sobs escape my mouth, but I forced my tears back for as long as I could.
"Natures first green is gold,
Her hardest his to hold,
Her early leaf a flower,
But only so an hour,
Then leaf subsides to leaf,
so eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day,
Nothing gold can stay." Ponyboy read the poem he and Johnny liked every time we came. I tried to come every day when Johnny first died, but as years passed, I found it harder and harder to come. He was my everything and the only gold in my life, but all that was taken away from me the night of the rumble.
I was with Dally and Pony when he died.. I knew that Dally would break if we left him alone, so I made him stay at the Curtis house until he could come and her Johnny's grave again. I have This strange feeling that Dally would be next to Johnny if I didn't care about him.
This was my only way to talk to him.

I began to sob into Steve's denim jacket as we said our happy birthday prayers and walked away. Steve was thoughtful in the way that he would let me cry with him any time I needed. He was like a second brother to me after Johnny died.
when we got home, I curled up in the couch too watch Mickey Mouse with Two-bit. I was half watching and half remembering the times I had with Johnny and how he was and always will be the love of my life!
As I was sitting there, I realized that Johnny was turning 24 that year, we would probably be engaged by now. I started to cry and as Two-bit comforted me, I knew Johnny was with us that day.
Happy birthday Johnnycakes!!! 🎂😭

I know this is long and I haven't updated in a while, but I'm sick and haven't been up to much lately. I just had a need to right just now and knew what to right about. Im sorry this is so sad, but it is if when Johnny died, Dally didn't.
