Chapter Text
Ponyboy stands outside the gym in the cold winter air waiting for his ride, of course two-bit forgot him, he was probably drunk somewhere instead of school.
“Uh shit. Guess i have to walk home” pony thought, as he started his walk. The school wasn’t that far from his house but it was pretty annoying. He was still in his track uniform because he had practice, and the cold air froze his legs even under his long running pants. The thing he was most worried about was running into a Soc, and getting into trouble. But for most of the walk the streets were just empty. A couple blocks from his house, he notices a red truck slowly following behind him. He starts to get nervous and tries to take another street to get to his house faster, and the truck speeds up to right next to him.
“Shit shit shit” he thinks, ready to start running.
“Hey kid, need a ride?” The man in the truck asks. He looks about mid 30’s and an average looking guy, pony kinda relaxes knowing it’s not a soc.
“Oh no thank you sir, my family is expecting me.” He tries to move on his was but as he nears his house the guy pulls something out of his pocket.
It’s a gun.
“Get in the car, or I’ll shoot.”
