you were Sodapop's twin you looked identical to Soda one morning you woke up after Darry, you got your coffee as Darry started to make breakfast you stood leaning against the counter with the half-full cup of black coffee in your hand, just straight black coffee, no milk or sugar or creamer in the coffee Soda came out of his room and sat at the table, minutes later a tired Ponyboy walked into the room, he had spent half the night up doing a 10 paragraph essay for his teacher on Monday Ponyboy walked up to you

Ponyboy: "Gimmie that coffee"

the shorter boy said as he grabbed the coffee from your hand before you could warn him that it was straight black coffee he took a big sip from it spitting it out into the sink he looked at you

Ponyboy: "are you a crackhead or something?"

he asked, setting your coffee down on the counter next to you

that made Soda and Darry crack a smile and a small chuckle
