Chapter 39

Bella at the top

Bella's POV

I woke up in the morning with the sun shinning threw the curtains. I stretched a bit and got dressed into a white sleeveless shirt and jeans. I grabbed some toast and went to the back yard to say good morning to Hercules.
"Good morning Hercules" I said, that dog came running and jumped on me and licked my face.
"You are having a good morning boy aren't you." I said petting him
"Well I am going to play ball, see you later." I threw my bat and glove over the fence and then I jumped it.

After what was about 15 minutes, Benny came
"You decided to show" I said
"I told you I wouldn't miss it" I hugged him and he hugged me, in a friend way.
"How was your morning beautiful Bella?" He asked
"Well Good I guess, I woke up got dressed and said good morning to Hercules and came here, the usual." After that there was silence.

"I hear that your family doesn't like Ella" I said breaking the silence
"Yeah they don't that much, they always say that they miss you and your goofy self." I nodded
"I didn't think your family missed me much"
"Well you like part of the family"
"Well I'm glad I was missed."
"Yeah"

20 minutes later the boys finally showed up.
"I thought you guys would never show up." I said
"Sorry we all wanted to come together." Smalls said
"Oh well-So Benny is playing today." I said moving to the right that way they can see him
"Why is he here, he betrayed us." Squints said
"Well I want you guys to be friends again because when I leave I don't want problems again." I said
"I guess" timmy said
"Guys I'm sorry I was being a ass, and I want to forget that and get my friends back, I am really sorry." Benny said
"You make a home run and you can play." Ham said
"Okay" Benny said shrugging, I chucked and shook my head.
*buzz*buzz it was my phone
"Hello?"
"Hi Bella" it was ponyboy
"Good morning Pony, what's up?"
"Bella come back everyone is a total wreak, soda doesn't smile no more and is quite, twobit stopped being funny and joyful and he also stopped watching Mickey-."
"HOLD THE PHONE KEITH STOPPED WATCHING MICKEY MOUSE LIKE TWO BIT MATTHEWS, wow me leaving did kinda affect you guys" I said freaking out a bit
"BELLA YOU GOING TO PLAY" ham yelled
"IM ON THE PHONE HAM!" I yelled back
"Who was that?" Pony asked
"That was Ham, keep going."
"Okay well Darry is meaner to me and yells more, dally left and hasn't come home in like a month. Johnny is much more quite and silently cry's. Steve is depressed, he crys, doesn't eat chocolate cake that much anymore, and tommy he is a total wreak, he just sits on the couch with your hoodie and cry's into it, he doesn't listen that much either, he just says to leave him alone and the only person he wants is you. And well me I am trying to hold it together because I know you will be back soon, we all miss you so much, I don't think I can handle being away from my best friend anymore, I just can't" ponyboy said sobbing I to the phone
"Pony don't worry it's only been a month, but tell everyone that I miss them and love them so much, tell tommy to stop being mean and to be the little joyful six year old that I know. I love you guys so much, I have to go play some baseball. Bye I love you" with that I hung up. A tear ran down my cheek. I walked out to the field looking down. Now my face had many tears streaming down.

I went to outfield that way the guys wouldn't ask questions of what happened. I was silently crying so no one heard me cry but they could probably see tears running down my face.

Benny was up to bat. Kenny threw the ball and Benny hit it. That was a instant homer. Everyone cheered except me I was crying because I missed the boys.

I walked over to the dug out to cool my self down, but I couldn't I just kinda cried. I was curled in a little ball crying on the floor.
I heard the boys getting closer, so I wiped all my tears away.
"Bella are you okay" smalls said squatting down. The boys were right behind him wondering what was wrong. I couldn't speak, I managed to say" i-i miss the g-gang."
"Who are they?" Yeah yeah said very confused
"When I went to Tulsa my brother Steve had a gang and I became really good friends with them, ponyboy just called me saying that everyone is sad a a total wreak and well I just miss them" I said in between sobs
"Bella were sorry" smalls said
"Why are you guys sorry? It's not your fault I came." I said, he just nodded
"So Benny you can play again" I said changing the subject
"Oh, yeah, Bella are you sure your okay" Benny said unsure
"Yeah I'm fine" I said standing up
"I kinda want to go home I'm not really feeling it right now" I walked over to the fence, and started climbing.
Everyone was yelling at me to get down except Benny because he knew I was living there.
"Bella get down you are going to get yourself killed!" Squints yelled
"Shut your trap, I'm going home" I yelled at him
Everyone was shocked that I said that because I don't usually talk like that, I guess my greaser instinct came out.
"I'm sorry" with that I jumped the fence. Hercules started to bark, all the boys were yelling 'NO' except Benny
"Hercules it's me don't worry" I said to him
They guys were all looking threw the holes in the fence but I didn't notice, but I knew they were there.

I sat on the ground and Hercules was laying down next to me.
"I miss them boy" I said to Hercules, I started to cry
"I miss how ponyboy would read to me and make me laugh, I miss how Johnny would talk to me and say sweet things to me, I miss Darry reading the news paper, cooking food and taking care of me like a real dad, I miss sodapops movie star smile and joyful self, I miss two bit bringing beer and forcing me to watch Mickey with him because I was his Minnie, I miss Steve and how he would care so much about me and would always make me smile and we always had those brother and sister bonds, i miss tommy and his ninja turtle skills and the way he would care for me and if I felt hurt he knew how to make me happy again, and Dallas I shouldn't have said that to him, he was my boyfriend, he loved me so much, he would always make me feel like I belonged, I miss him so much, I miss when he smoked and when he would see me he would hide it, I miss his lips on mine, I miss the way we would cuddle and watch friends or Mickey Mouse, I miss him, he might of gotten into jail a lot and would steal and would do all these horrible things but I brought out the good in him, his smile was everything." I said sobbing
"I don't know why I'm spilling my feelings to you, but it feels right" I said petting Hercules.
Hercules stood up and licked my face.
"I think I should go back to Oklahoma." Hercules started to wag his tail
" maybe I didn't know where home was until I met the gang" I said looking down at my hands
"I made up my mind I'm going back tomorrow, I wish I could take you with me"I stood up and walked into mr mertles house.
"Hello beautiful Bella I heard you talking to Hercules, are you going to leave?" Mr mertle asked
"I'm sorry but yes I miss my brothers too much" I said
"Well, it's okay" he said I started walking to my room to pack but mr mertle stoped me and said
"Take Hercules with you, he will be able to walk and run and be free where you are going."
"I can't He is your dog"
"He made my life a Miracle, now it's your turn to have him he listens to you more then me."
"Are you sure"
"Of course I'm sure, it's a gift"
"Okay, Thank you Thank you Thank you" I said jumping up and down, I also hugged him.
"I'm going to pack"
"Okay girly" so I did I went to my room and packed every thing.

I finally finished packing, after that I went to bed.....
