A/N: Long time no see guys! I'm so excited to be back. This story is going to have pretty quick updates because it's all written out, and I'm so excited to bring it to you guys. After taking time to mature and work on my writing, I hope this will be my best story yet.

Enough rambling. Enjoy!

Ponyboy's POV

There was a reason Darry hated cigarettes.

A star on the football team since he was young, people thought he was just a health fanatic, against risking what he had going, but it wasn't. Not really. It was about what it did to people. What the smell of smoke did to Sodapop and I. About

Boys, I think we need to teach this piece of greaser trash a lesson," another Soc growled, so close to my face I could smell the suffocating stench of chew tobacco on his breath.

Not. Good.

The blow to my jaw came out of nowhere. The fight was on.

I aimed for the smallest Soc's nose, and when I made contact blood poured out in a steady stream of red as he cursed. He looked to be about fourteen, while the rest were at least seniors, so that got him distracted for a minute. Before I could throw another punch I felt a knee in my stomach and I thought I might puke. When I leaned forward with my hand on my stomach, I felt hits all over the back of my head and my head face. I tried to block, but I was getting real dizzy.

"Hey!" A familiar gruff voice yelled. When the Socs began to scatter, I let out a sigh of relief. When my vision cleared I saw a partially blurry image of Curly tucking a knife away. Thank the stars above for Curly and his ever reliable, threatening switchblade.

"What's up, Curtis?" Curly's words weren't slurring yet, but he had obviously had a few already, despite the early time. I laughed, feeling nothing but elation and relief.

"Hey, Curly," I

    “If you smoke more than a pack today i’ll skin you”. Darry says that to not seem so mean’ because he says it in a playful way and Ponyboy sees that.

    Moving the blade across the other man's throat, he eliminated the enemy in one quick motion, the docile body collapsing to the floor. A smug smile faded onto his dirtied and chapped lips, and he let the knife slip from his grasp. He would sleep well that night, he quickly decided.…

    Jessie remained silent as Irish spoke of her beliefs. The concept was foreign to him, and he listened with curiosity and apprehension. Every religion, he had heard of so far in his life, left little to no place for women as an equal. He was more sad than surprised to learn that even the old gods seemed to be chauvinist pigs. "So, Jude, was your bad boy?…

    Hi Victoria, this is Brenden, Sydney's old boyfriend. I think we only met once at our old apartment, so I hope this isn't too weird. I just know that you two are close. Sometimes we have thoughts that won't leave our heads, so we write them down on paper, in a journal or a blog. Sometimes that doesn't cut it, though, and we want to send those words directly to the source, ya know? I'd rather not send this to her, especially right before Christmas. Hell, I shouldn't even be sending this to you, but I suppose I can't help it.…

    Pow! Right smack in my forehead crushing my skull. The metal baseball bat knocked in my skull. It was a warm sunny day in the middle of the summer. Joey, my brother, was hitting tennis balls over my house. Little 10 year old me was playing in the yard and my brother purposely pushed me far away so he wouldn’t hit me. Oh how I was a stupid little kid. I was intrigued by what he was doing so I started wandering over to like how not knowing little kids do. As I approached my brother he was so focused on himself that he did not see me. When I finally reached him he had just set up to hit another ball. He hits the ball, but on his back rotation, the bat makes contact with my head. I fell hard on the pavement. Before I went unconscious I heard my…

    One of my friends asked me if I was okay and i said "yeah I am fine". But then he asked me if I was okay after the hit? I said "yeah it hurt a little bit I'm okay now". Not thinking to much about the hit I started walking down the sideline to some of my other buddy's and then all of a sudden I felt super light headed so I sat down on the ground and soon enough another trainer came over and said if I was alright which I wasn't. The trainer checked me out for a little bit and asked me multiple questions which I thought I answered correctly but before you know it there was a ambulance and a fire truck sitting in the parking lot. With the paramedics rushing over to get me they soon put me on a stretcher and took me to the ambulance. I'm not gunna lie I was really scared one being I didn't know why I was being put into a ambulance, and because my parents were not down at the games to see if I was okay or where I was…

    My heart sank as I heard the words leave my mom’s mouth. I had dreaded this time for all of my life previous to this moment. My initial response was one of disbelief, “this can’t be happening”, I thought to myself. She was just a little sick, how did this get so serious? I sat in the car seat next to my mom as we continued driving home in silence, utterly devastated by the news that my dog had developed cancer.…

    The fight happened just after my P.E. class. We were all in the locker rooms, (me in the boy’s locker room obviously) and we had just finished changing. Another of the boys by the name of Bryce, was the one who gave me the most trouble. He had started ramming me into closed lockers by shoving me with his shoulder, using all his force to push me into it. Each time he did that, he backed away and got farther away before he darted towards me again. Finally, I had grown tired…

    Before we started I told all my cousins that they had to be quite the whole time when we ran through the obstacle course. We started the races and my two cousins did the obstacle course in really good time, I thought that if I could just run the fastest I could through out the whole course I could beat both there times and win. I started running so fast it felt like I was just flying through the obstacle course, I was just about to round the corner of my parent’s bed when all of a sudden I hear my mom yell my name. I lost my concentration for a spilt second when I turn my head to see if she was in the hall when she yells my name, I felt this sharp pain I had never felt anything like this before in my life. I look down at my leg where I felt the pain and my parents forgot to put on the safety corners to there bed frame, so my leg got stabbed by the bed frame. Blood was running down my leg like a waterfall, I had never seen so much blood in my life. the first thing that pops in my head is that i am going to be in so much trouble ,first of all I was even supposed to be in the house running…
