Greasers always have it hard. Take Johnny for example, the poor kid got beat just about every time he went home. Greasers had it rough. You were no exceptions of this. The only difference was, you resorted to self-harm. Everyone in the gang knew this. They've even seen the bandages on your arms multiple times. At first they tried to convince you to stop, but as time went on they stopped talking about it. Of course they were still worried for you, but they stopped mentioning it. Until today.

You and the rest of the gang was hanging around at the Curtis house like usual. Dallas had just bought some new weed for you all to try, so you was all high out of your minds and just chilling. Darry sat in his armchair as he watched over everyone. Sodapop and Steve was chilling on the couch talking about something only the two of them understood. Dallas and Two-Bit was having a arm wrestling match, Dallas winning. Which left you between Johnny and Ponyboy on the floor next to the TV.

Ponyboy: "Why do you cut yourself?"

Everything went quiet as Ponyboy uttered those words. Everyone looked at you or him. Dallas was actually impressed that he had the balls to ask you that.
