*Sodas POV*

I walked in !y house and saw Johnny and Pony cuddling on the couch.

They are so cute together.

I went to the bathroom and saw that Steve left a bunch of marks on me.I

Really Steve?

I walked out seeing Dar making dinner and Pony, Johnny, Steve, Dally, and Two-Bit watching Mickey Mouse. Where the hell did they come from?

"Dinner!" Dar shouted.

We all sat down to dinner: baked chicken and peas with rice.

Half way in to dinner, Two said aloud: "Nice marks you got there Soda."

"Wow...well, you can thank Steve for that.

" Haha! RIght....my ass is sore still you know? " he recalled

"Oh shut up!" I growled.

  *Ponyboys POV*
Well that escalated quickly.

Damn...

Then Darry mentioned something I hoped he would forget: my birthday.

You see....Mom and Dad passed 6 months ago and I still haven't gotten over it.

"So Pony...what do you wanna do for your birthday in a week?" he asked so casually.

" I don't really want to have a party or do anything for my birthday really. " I said.

"Why not man? It's ya 15th" Dal said.

"Just...nothing...." I said.

I had barely eaten and wanted to be left alone.

"I'm full...I'm gonna go finish some h-homework." I said.

" but Pones we dont even have any homework-" Johnny said.

"Y-yeah we do..." I interrupted and walked away.

* Sodas POV*

"What's going on with him?" Darry asked.

" I know. Why doesn't he wanna do- oh... " I trailed off.

"What?" Dar asked.

" He doesn't wanna do stuff because....they aren't here....not this year... " I said quietly.

The others immediately understood.

Our parents death hit us hard but it hit Ponyboy the hardest.

Dar and I got up and went upstairs.

We quietly heard him sobbing.

"Hey Pony...can we come in honey?" I asked.

"Sure." Pony replied quietly.

We walked in a th he was sobbing on his bed.

"Hey baby we're sorry..We didn't realize." Dar said.

" it's ok...I really don't want to do anything for my birthday..We can do presents still and cake I guess... " he trailed off.

"Ok honey...We sure can. Whatever you like." I said.
