"He just ran off, I really don't know where he went but I think you might know." Sodapop Curtis was telling Ciarra, Ponyboy's girlfriend. "So please, just find him and bring him home. He seemed like he was having a bad day." Sodapop said and sighed.
"I'll find him don't worry. I think I may know where he is." Ciarra nodded and then Sodapop gave her his signature movie star smile. "Thanks! Thanks a lot Ciarra." He said and then pointed back to his house, "Well, I better get going!" He smiled and then walked back home, and Ciarra headed to find Ponyboy.
Ponyboy wasn't the same as before, Ciarra and Ponyboy had been dating for a while now and not too long ago, Ponyboy and his best friend, Johnny Cade, got into some trouble with a Soc and Johnny had stabbed him. This sent them into a terrible adventure that had killed Johnny and another gang member named Dallas Winston. Ponyboy had come out alive but was traumatized with everything that had happened. Ciarra was there for him through everything though.
The thing was, Ponyboy was in shock with everything at first, he was numb, and now everything was settling in and the realization of losing his best friend was starting to hit Ponyboy, which made him angsty and made him act out sometimes. But Ciarra was always her patient self with him and never took it personal if he answered her in an angry tone. Even if she did, he would immediately apologize and give her an ashamed look as his ears turned red.
"Sorry...I didn't mean it." He would say and Ciarra would smile and shake her head. "It's fine Pone, don't worry about it." She would say.
That was why Ponyboy liked her so much she always understood him and was very patient with him. She was never judgemental and he felt so comfortable with her.
But another problem was Darry, Ponyboys oldest brother. He didn't really approve about them dating. He thought that Ciarra would be a distraction towards Ponyboy's grades and stuff. But they still found a way to date, and Darry realized there was nothing he could really do, so he let them, but he did say he didn't want Ponyboy's perfect grades to change. And for a while they didn't, until what had happened.
After those events, Ponyboy and Darry had gotten into lots of arguments. They had before but these ones would sometimes get out of hand. Especially now, that Ponyboy had run off. It sorta scared all of them after Ponyboy ran off the first time. But the gang tried not to get to worried since Ponyboy wouldn't even dare to run away again after the event. But they were still skeptical at times.
After a few minutes, Ciarra had arrived where she knew Ponyboy was.
The empty lot that Johnny used to sleep in. Ciarra stood behind Ponyboy as he was sitting down, his back to her, watching the sunset, as a cigarette dangled loosely between his fingers.
Ciarra smoothed out her decently long skirt and then walked towards Ponyboy, he flinched when he heard her footsteps and then got calm after he realized who she was. He didn't say anything just turned back around as Ciarra sat down next to him.
She didn't even get a chance to ask him anything or say anything before he spoke up.
"We got into a fight again...because of..of..him. He said that I needed to stop the way I was acting because there's more to life than him and that I need to get over him." Ponyboy said and then took a long drag of his cigarette.
Ciarra didn't say anything just listened.
"And...and you know what? The thing that hurts is that he's right. But he shouldn't be. Why do we need to forget him? That's not fair. He just doesn't understand. I don't wanna forget him, his parents don't even care and now I'm just supposed to let him go? Never think of him again and move on with my life?" Ponyboy was crying now, he had a tear rolling down his cheek and he sniffled. He took another drag of his cigarette.
"I just...I miss him so much Ciarra. I miss him." Ponyboy said and then put his cigarette out and looked at Ciarra.
Ciarra was also crying by now it hurt her to see Ponyboy so hurt.
"Pony...I'm so sorry." She said and then pulled Ponyboy for a hug and he melted into her arms as he cried into her shoulder and she held him close to her.
They stood like that for a moment, he continued to cry and suddenly he stopped. "I love you." Ponyboy got out and Ciarra froze.
They never told each other "I love you" yet, and Ciarra always wanted to hear it and say it but she was scared Ponyboy wouldn't say it back.
Ciarra pulled away from the hug and then wiped Ponyboy's tear away. "I love you too." She said and then Ponyboy leaned in and gave her a small peck on the lips.
Both of them had red cheeks and had small smiles on their faces.
"Let's get you home. Yeah?" Ciarra asked and Ponyboy nodded. Ciarra stood up and took his hand, and they began to walk to Ponyboy's house in comfortable silence.
They came home and as Ponyboy stepped inside, Darry couldn't stay quiet.
"Pony! How many times does this have to-" he stopped when he saw Ciarra step in. Darry and Ponyboy once got into an argument because Darry had lectured Ponyboy in front of her and Ponyboy said it was embarrassing. Darry agreed to never do it again.
Ponyboy didn't say anything and then pulled Ciarra into his room. Ciarra gave Ponyboy a quick kiss on the cheek and then Ponyboy blushed and did the same to her.
"Thank you so much for being there for me." Ponyboy muttered and Ciarra nodded.
"It's really nothing." She said and blushed.
They both spent a little bit of time talking and then she had to leave. She didn't live too far from where he did, so she never worried about Socs.
As Ciarra walked into her bedroom and closed the door, she realized how much Ponyboy meant to her.
