When we pulled up to Ally's house I was in shock. "Whoa." I mumbled under my breath. Her house was huge. A mansion! Talk about jealously.

Ally looked over at me. "Well ready to go in?" She asked and I nodded because I was at a loss for words.

We walked in and this place was like my dream house! I'd get lost living here. We went into her bedroom. "So?" She spoke. "So what?" I asked. " You said you needed to talk to me." She replied.

"Yeah, you never replied when I said I liked you..." I said and she giggled. " What's so funny?" I asked. "Pony, I like you too. But we should see how we get along first." She replied. I respected that.

"Yeah I feel ya." I said. "You dig okay." She smiled. I leaned into her and put my lips on hers she was stiff at first but softend up. I pulled away and blushed. "Sorry I-" She cut me off. "It's fine." She blushed.

Golly she was pretty with her hazel eyes, gold brown hair that glistend in the sunlight and a perfect smile.

After awhile of smoking and talking about life which by the way I told her everything turns out her and Cherry are pretty good friends. Soda came to get me and walked and his eyes met Ally's.

I got up and started to walk out but Ally came over and kissed my cheek. "Bye Ponyboy." She said and walked away.

Soda smirked. "Have fun?" I didn't answer and got in the car.

***************

The gang was all in the living room (or what's left of it) so I decided to join them. Darry came over and sat by me on the couch. "Hey Pone." He said. Please don't yell at me. "Hey Darry." I half smiled.

"You doin okay little buddy?" Little buddy? This is only the second time he's called me that, the first time was after Johnny..."Fine." I replied shaking off the sad thoughts.

"Ya know now that Soda's brought your eatin habits to my attention I have to agree with him. You haven't been eatin." He informed me. So that's what this is about.

"Darry I told you once and I'm fine. Just not hungry I haven't eaten cause er'thing taste like baloney." I said trying to keep my cool.

"What are ya talking about Pone?" He asked. All right being nice ain't workin. "I said I'm fine so I'm fine! I can't open up to you because you don't listen you just say what you think so what's the point of even asking if your not going to change the way you see it?!?" I yelled causing the whole gang to stare at me.

Darry didn't say anything so I walked upstairs but I heard them talking. "Golly I ain't ever seen him act like that." Twobit said.

I drowned out the rest of them and slammed my bedroom door and startled Soda who was sitting by the window. "Hey Pone." He spoke softly. I didn't answer. "Hey what's wrong?" He questioned.

I ignored him once again and threw myself on the bed burying my face into my pillow. "Ponyboy." He cooed in a soothing tone rubbing circles on my back. "Darry." I mumbled.

"What happened this time?" He asked laying next to me. "He's not letting go of the whole me starving myself situation." I told him.

"Well are you?" He asked. "No!" I shot up and crossed my arms looking out the window. "I believe ya." He said sitting next to me. "You sure didn't this morning." I snapped back.

"Yeah. Sorry about that." He laughed. I can't stay mad at him. "I know." I said and fake smiled.

"Hey Pone. I found something on the window." He said pulling out a pice of paper. Oh no.
