The walk that changed everything
We step outside and he looks at me oddly, "did you mean that, what you said?"
"What?" I said confused.
"Did you mean that you didn't care about us?" Pony asked me.
As he asked that I felt my heart break a little, "no I didn't mean that Pony I love ya'll with all my heart to be honest I kind of dig Soda."
He laughed and looked at me, "I think he digs you too but, so does Two-bitts and Dallas."
I chuckled then looked down at my wrists nobody in the gang has seen my scars yet they might never see them, I can't tell them about everything not yet at least. I pulled my sleeve up but, not fast enough because Pony grabbed my sleeve and uncovered all my scars, he looked at me and his eyes filled with tears, "what is this from? Did the Socs do this to you?"
I bit my lip and tried to come up with some lame I wanted to say yes the Socs did it to me but I couldn't lie to Pony, I just couldn't lie to him," I use to cut myself."
He stared at me for a second and then simply asked, "Why?"
"I wasn't in a good place and I got bullied in elementary school, by fourth grade I was depressed. In fifth I was diagnosed bipolar. Six grade I had an eating disorder. Seventh grade, I got into drugs and get sent to rehab. Eighth grade I got bullied again but this time it was worse. In ninth-grade I had a drug relapse and went back to rehab,Tenth I was a cutter. Now I'm here. Please don't tell I promise I won't do it again Pony Please. Pony?" I poured my heart out to that kid but, I think he understood.
"I won't, I promise and you better not," he said
We got home to find everybody asleep including Darry one we got away with it for once. That night I fell asleep and remember how to get back home that night I woke up and it was light but, it storming. I left three notes one addressed to Soda, one addressed to Pony and the last to whole gang.
The one addressed to soda read, " Dear Soda, I found my home I think I gotta go but, I got that photo of the gang I left you and the rest of the gang some money it's on my night stand. Think of it as like a thank you gift. I need you to know that I loves at more than a friend but, I also loved Dally and Two-bitts that way but my emotions toward you were the strongest. I'm sure going to miss you. Man I wish I could of told you how much I dig you in person but, just know I do. Listen I may be going home but, I'll never leave you and you'll leave me because we'll be in each others hearts. Know I'm not going to ever love anybody the way I love you. You're my spark and my true love. I'm sorry for ever coming I know much me leaving must hurt but, I'll be out of your skin forever like I promised. You won't have to worry about me being back here to bother you. I love you oh so much! xoxoxo-Arianna."
The one addressed to Pony reads, "Pony, you kept my secret and that means the world to me. I love you like my kid brother and you dig okay.I sure am going to miss you and the rest of gang but, like I told soda we'll never really be apart because you love me and I love you which means we'll alway be in each other hearts and each other memories. Pony let me tell you something, I think I were to stay you'd become my real kid-brother. Oh yeah another thing, you're going to find true love heck you the nicest boy I've ever met in my whole life. If those Socs try bothering you let them know that they'll sure be sorry if my sister ever comes back to find them bugging you. I wish I could tell that I'll be back but, I just don't know. I think if I come back I won't be able to leave. Sta pure and good. Never change the way you love to read or anything about yourself because Pony you're perfect the way you are. Please don't remember me for my cuts but, for the way I love you and our relationship. I'm literally in tears right now because I don't know if I'll ever be able to see you again but just know that I'm forever in your heart and you're forever in mine. Whenever you miss me think about the way that I saved you from those Socs and when I miss you I'll think about the way you understood about my past. I love you sooo much know that and never forget how special you are you're my first kid-sibling I only have older siblings but whatever I guess. xoxoxoxoxoxo-Arianna"
The one addressed to gang was short, sweet and simple. It read, "Dear Greasers, ya'll have no idea how proud I am to be able to call myself a Greaser. So much have changed since I've been here and I'm sad to say goodbye but, I must go home to my ''family'' even though ya'll my real family. I left some money for ya'll it sort of like a thank you gift because ya'll are my everything and I'll treasure you and all the memories that come with you. I love you and I wish I could stay here forever but, that's not realistic. Soda I'm sorry I have to leave but, I must. Ya'll are forever in my heart which means ya'll will never truly be gone because ya'll will live in my heart and in my memories. Like when Soda accidentally kisses me or when Two-bitts spun me around and I spilt my drink all over the place. When Steve picked me up and ran with me then won the race between him and Darry that was too funny! When I Darry literally picked me up and threw me into my bed. When Dally and I first met. When Johnny ran into me from behind and I fell over onto Soda hence the accidental kiss. Then lastly when Pony and I went on our first walk and then we all became friends and ya'll aren't only my best friend but my brothers. I love ya'll and this is the hardest thing I've ever had to do. xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxoxox- Arianna. Is that enough hugs and kisses for ya'll. I stepped out the door when I heard Pony say," Arianna is that you?"
"Yea, I respond quickly.
"Where are you going?" He asked looking concerned but, curious at the same time he was also a hint confused.
"I found a way home and Pony don't get me wrong I love ya'll but I just can't stay here forever that's impractical," I inform him.
I see him start to cry and he sobbes, "Is this goodbye?''
I start to cry now too, "I'm afraid so but, know that I love you and always will."
"I love you too," he cried.
I pulled him in for a long tight hug and messed up his hair, I didn't want to let him go because I could feel his tears and didn't want him to have to say goodbye or see me leave but, I knew it was time to go so I pulled away and wiped away his tears, "don't you cry okay my kid-brother even though I won't be here I'm still your sister and I'm still a greaser, and I'll still love you, and be there for you even if I'm not physically there. I love you."
He looks at me with tears in his eyes and said, "goodbye sister and I know ya'll alway be there for me like the time you kicked the Socs butt just for me. I love you too!"
I smiled because I knew if I didn't I would cry I look at him and plead, "please, please,please remember me like that, okay kiddo?"
"Ok," he responded then walked me out.
I disappeared into the dark and sat there waiting for the light to light again and once it did I was sent whirling back into my time.I sat there is the rain back in 2014. I ran home and saw as my family surrounded me with questions. I'm home! Then I looked down at my phone and saw the greasers including me I shed a tear but, knew that I would be ok because I'm home.
