"I miss you. . ." - Johnnyboy

i

Finishing the last page of my summer theme, The Outsiders, I sighed in content.

Darry had opened mine and Soda's door and poked his head in, "Hey, Pony, you finished with your summer theme, yet?"

"Yeah, just finished, actually." I lazily smiled.

"Can I read it?" He arched an eyebrow.

"Sure." I handed the papers to him.

After about half an hour, he had skimmed through all of it.

"Darn, Pony. You sure write well." Darry grinned as he put the papers back in the proper order.

"Thanks, Darry" I then stood up and stretched.
That summer theme took me about, three and a half months.

It's been four months since Johnny and Dally died, hasn't been the same since then.
I mean, yeah, we're still a gang n all, but it's just.. Empty without our puppy-like member, and our tough, 'scary' member.

Darry closed the door after telling me he was going to make dinner.

After we ate, Soda ran into the bathroom to take a shower,

Darry went into the living room to watch TV.

So I went into mine and Soda's room to lie down.

Man.. Why am I so tired?

After a while Soda came into the room and threw himself on the bed.

"hi"

I was staring at the ceiling. I found myself doin that an awful lot nowadays.

"man, you n them daydream things"

"huh? sorry," I mumbled.

"ever since Johnny n Dally. . died, you've been staring off into space, and just, distant, c'mon kid brother, you gotta open up at some point.."

"I wrote a summer theme all about it, ain't that enough?"

"No, Pony, it ain't."

"them dying is all my fault"

"it ain't no ones fault, shut yer trap."

"no, Soda, it is my fault. If I hadn't come home at two in the morning that night none of this would've happened"

"but then who would've saved them kids?"

".."

"exactly. Now, shut up n go to sleep."

"okay.."

.
.
.

At some point I did fall asleep, for about an hour.

I sat there, trying to go back sleep, but it didn't work.

.
.

"hey.. Soda?" I asked, still obviously wide awake.

"yeah, Pony?" He seemed wide awake as well.

"have you ever.. just, wanted to re do moments in your life..?" I was staring at the ceiling, hoping somethin would appear, but, as I expected, nothing did.

"yeah.. All the time." He sighed, then turned over in the bed so he was closer to me, he then wrapped his arms around my shoulders, so basically, we're cuddling.

"Like what?"

"Sandy runnin off... Mom n dad's death. You runnin away." His head was located in between my shoulder and neck.

"oh.. I still feel awful bout runnin away.. I wish me n Johnny never had!" I hiccup.

"sshh- honey, you couldn't have known all that was gonna happen. It's okay."

((Omg, did I just put the description in the story for once? wOw!1!k bYe-))

"it ain't oka-"

"Pony, even if it had been your fault any of this happened, me n Darry would still love you ta death. You can't get rid of us, trust me."

"So, even if I tried, you n Darry would still be annoyin?"

"yes,"

"darn."

so, yeah, I really like The Outsiders, and and,, I wanted to make a normal story for once in my life, and boom magICC! I got inspired for this, if this flops I'm going 2 fuckin cry n scream @ my friends :(
