Summary
“Pony,” Soda whispered, voice barely more than breath. “Please talk to me.”
Pony didn’t move. Didn’t flinch. Just stayed curled up, facing the wall.
“Pony, please,” Soda said again, and now there was a crack in it. Real worry. “Me and Dar, we’re scared. I miss you, honey.”
The words hit him harder than the bruises ever could.
A hand slipped gently into his hair, brushing it back the way it always used to. Pony swallowed, hard.
“‘M okay, Soda,” he mumbled. His voice was thin, frayed at the edges. “It’s okay.”
“It’s not,” Soda said softly. “You look like you’re fading away.”
—
When a group of Socs corner Ponyboy and beat him up, they don’t just leave bruises — they leave doubts. Doubts about whether he really belongs with Darry and Sodapop. Doubts about whether he’s anything more than a stray they took pity on. Afraid to be a burden, Pony begins to pull away from the only real family he’s ever known. But Darry and Soda aren’t about to let him go without a fight.
