Rowen Curtis

10

Darry and Sodapop made me stay home from work today. They both wanted me rest and take it easy so I don't rip open my stitches and hurt my head more. I knew this was an argument that I was not going to win so I just huffed and sat in the couch cuddled up to Johnny. I was tired and he knew that. I found it cute that he did that. 

I honestly couldn't ask for a better boyfriend. Johnny is the most loyal, caring, friendly, respectful and loving boyfriend I could ask for. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I am currently laying my head on his shoulder while he kisses my forehead every now and then and rubs my shoulder lightly. I start to fall asleep again as Darry, Soda and Steve head off to work and Ponyboy and Two-Bit go to school. Dally is causing trouble with Tim so, it is just me and Johnny here.

We both fell asleep because the next thing I know is Two-Bit, Dallas and Steve are making a ruckus and woke both of us up. "The sleeping Prince and Princess are awake." Steve shouted eating cake. 

"Wonder why Steve. You gotta loud mouth and can't shut up. I haven't been sleeping well and you ruined my sleep just now." I said. 

I stood up from the couch and grabbed Johnny's hand pulling him to the kitchen. I walked to the fridge and grabbed two Pepsi's and made two PB&J sandwiches. I handed a Pepsi and a plate to Johnny and sat on the counter. He stood between my legs as I ate, smiling at him and giving him the last bite of my sandwich. We had fun messing around it took us a while to calm down. Then we began kissing and didn't know Darry was home and in the kitchen until we heard him clear his throat. I jumped and hit my head on the cabinet and Johnny went pale. I was holding my head and had tears streaming down my face because my head hurts so bad. 

"Hey. What's wrong." Darry asked as Johnny whipped my tears away. 

"You scared me and I hit my head on the cabinet. And it really hurts." I said. 

Darry looked sad because I am in tears. He handed me Ibuprofen and a bag of frozen peas to put on my head. I sat there while Johnny hugged me and rubbed my back. We talked to Darry while he cooked burgers and fries. 

"Darry, I'm getting dizzy. Everything is spinning. I don't feel so good." I said. 

"Johnny watch this." Darry said, scooping me up off the counter and layed me down on the couch, my head in Soda's lap. 
As soon as I was was about in Darry's arms, I was already falling forward off the counter passing out. 

Darry's P. O. V. 
I was busy cooking burgers and fries for dinner when I heard Ro say my name. 

"Darry,  I'm getting dizzy. Everything is spinning. I don't feel so good." she said. 

I quickly had Johnny trade me spots and I go to pick her up and Carey her to the couch when she starts falling forward and passes out. I luckly caught her before she fell into the floor. I layed her head on Soda's lap, knowing they would both be calm if they were together. It's a weird twin thing. Sodapop asked me what happened and I told him. He looked up at me with a concerned and worried look. He looked back down and started playing with her hair. 

"I think she had the start of a concussion after hitting her head in the hood if the car she was fixing yesterday. And she made it worse, probably giving her a concussion after hitting her head on the cabinet. It sounded hard. I didn't mean to scare her and Johnny." I said. 

Soda nodded knowing that I really didn't mean it. He was now rubbing Ro's forehead with his thumb. I walked back into the kitchen to finish dinner, I had Johnny get the condamins out of the fridge and set them on the counter. Then,  I had him go get Pony so her could set the table. 

I plated everything and went to go get the gang. I sat Rowen's plate in the microwave and I handed Sodapop his. He was careful not to make a mess and wake Rowen. After we finished eating, I had Dally and Two-Bit do the dishes. When they were done, we all quietly watched TV. Sodapop fall asleep with his head in the back of the couch and had one hand in Rowen's hair and the other was in his lap. 
They looked young and cute. It was like they were 4 years old again. They ways slept together when they were younger and it was cute.
