Chapter 5
I sat at the kitchen table still not hungry but I know I needed something in my system. Anything. I got up and got a glass of water and after one sip I was done and dumped the rest down the drain.
Soda walked in as I placed the cup in the sink. "I'll do the dishes later." I said starting to walk away from the sink. "It's fine man I got it." He smiled. "Thanks Soda." I said smiling back.
"Hey can I uh talk to ya for a minute?" He asked looking down. "Yeah sure. What's up?" I asked and we sat at the table. "So Pony you know you can tell me anything. Right?" He asked. What was he getting at? "Yeah I do." I replied.
"I noticed you haven't been eating." He blurted out and looked me in the eye. He didn't think I was...did he? "Soda I'm gonna have to ask you to believe me and I'm fine." I told him.
"Pony aren't you hungry?" He asked ignoring everything I just said. "I actually just ate before you walked in." I lied. "Mhm. What'd you eat?" He asked. Crap. "Cake." I replied quickly. "Ponyboy I have not even made cake this morning yet." He told me.
"Yeah I ate the rest from last night." I said with an assuring grin. "Pony, TwoBit ate all the cake last night. Now tell me why aren't eating." He demanded.
"I'm legit just not hungry!" I yelled causing TwoBit and Darry to walk in. I wish Johnny and Dally were here they'd stick up for me.
"What's going on in here?" Darry asked in a stern tone. His hair was wet so I'm assuming he just got out of the shower.
"Ponyboy is starving himself!" Soda yelled and I threw my head onto the table. "I'm not staving myself." I mumbled. "What?" Darry commended.
I looked up at everyone and screamed. "I'M NOT STARVING MYSELF!" I yelled and ran upstairs and left the group star struck.
I decided to call Ally but we hadn't talked since it happened. I nervously pick up the wall phone and dialed the numbers.
"H-hey." She stuttered which I found so cute. "Hey!" I said in a chirpy tone. She giggled. What was so funny? "Hey uh...we need to...um talk...can you come over?" She asked. Oh. My. Golly.
A Soc...a social had just invited me to their house. A Soc! I must have been thinking longer than I thought I was because she spoke up. "Pony you there?" She asked.
"Y-yeah! I'll be over soon. Bye!" I said quickly and hung up. Soda walked in. "Who was that?" He asked. "No one." I said and grabbed my leather jacket and left.

I think my writer's block is starting to go away...yay! It's really late and I'm outside because I'm an outsider. (Sorry bad joke...) but what did y'all think of this chapter I like this one much better than the previous one :).
Stay gold,
