(You are a Curtis sibling in this chat by the way) A few months after the fire, Darry got a new job so the Curtis family could buy a bigger house. There was enough room for another person, so they invited Johnny to come live with them. Darry and Soda shared the bedroom, so Ponyboy, Johnny, and you slept in the attic. There were two large bookshelves up there, but Pony had read every book on them and Darry refused to buy him any more until Christmas. Because of this, Pony quickly got bored.

One night you and Johnny were asleep when Ponyboy went to each of their beds and shook them awake.

“Guys,” he whined. “There’s nothin’ to do. I’m bored.”

Your sleepy eyes drifted to the clock on the nightstand. It read 1:00 AM.
