CHAPTER 17

DARRY'S POV

It's now been a few months since we lost three of the gang. It's took a huge impact of the rest of us, especially Pony and Francesca. I decided I'd make their lives a bit more fun. And make Soda and Frankie closer again, they've been really distant lately.

I was the only one awake and the other 5 were all asleep round the living room. "Get up!" I shouted and only Pony, Frankie and Steve woke up. Pony jumped on Soda and Frankie and Steve both got Two-bit. Well that's my job done.

"What's up Darry?" Pony asked in his sweet little morning voice. I smirked and walked in the kitchen without saying a word.

I grabbed the food which I packed and walked past them all and out of the front door whilst saying "I've got you all some clothes and food, get dressed, grab the bags with your names on and meet me out at the truck." They all looked shocked but soon moved when the door shut behind me.

SODA'S POV

I didn't have a clue what was going on right now and by the looks of it neither did anyone else. I guess Darry is just full of secrets.

I looked over the other side of the room to see Frankie standing up and about to go walk out the door. I jumped out of my seat and followed her up stairs, I really need to speak to her. I guess we've both just been grieving and haven't really noticed anyone else around us because it's as if we're both invisible to each other at the moment. It kinda hurts to know she's trying to deal with all this by herself.

"Frankie!" I called up the stairs to try see if I could catch her attention. I heard no reply so I walked to outside my room and knocked on the door to make sure I didn't just walk in when she's not decent. "Go away." I heard her say. So I just walked in the room to see her sat on my bed with her head in her hands crying.

I couldn't help but to just stand there frozen. She looked up at me with red puffy eyes and her cheeks all tear stained. I walked up to her and hugged her as tight as I could. I didn't want to ever let go. I hate to see her like this.

FRANCESCA'S POV

I was sat in Soda's grasp which I had been longing for for so long now. I felt like he was ghosting me, which I ain't gonna tell him I felt like that, but I guess he was just thinking I wanted a bit of space.

I hugged him back knowing that he didn't want to let go, neither did I. I had been longing for this moment for the past week.

I knew I had to tell him to let go soon because I could hear everyone outside getting into the truck, both me and Soda wasn't even dressed yet.

"Hey Soda, we kinda need to hurry up," I told him. He just moaned and hugged me tighter. I tried to wiggle out of his grasp but he just payed me back on the bed and hovered over the top of me. We both started to laugh until he placed his cherry tasting lips against mine. They tasted amazing. The kiss was quite fast pace as we hadn't done this in ages, so it seemed, I had missed this and by the looks of it so had he.

It was getting more heated until we heard "Oh gosh, my innocent eyes!" I could tell it was Steve. He stood there laughing and I smiled against Soda's lips. I heard him whisper "why'd you have to stop for?" He gave me puppy eyes then jumped off the bed and helped me up. I could have sworn that would have gone further if Steve didn't walk in. Soda kissed my cheek before grabbing his clothes and walked to the bathroom as Steve went back downstairs.

Seen as though it was warm, I chose to wear some summer clothes, which included really short shorts (just so I can tease Sodapop) a grey belly top and my black converse, coz lets be real an outfit isn't complete without converse.
