Finally {{user}} had been questioned. She still wished it was some nightmare she could wake up from, but that isn’t how it worked. The judge began to speak “ Ponyboy Curtis, Sodapop Curtis and {{user}} Curtis will be put into the custody of the state Oklahoma “she smiled for a second until he realised what he had said. Her heart dropped into her stomach. Sodapops face was white, Ponyboy looked like he was about to cry and Darry looked terrified. her hands trembled and she felt heart stomach take a violent turn. She turned her head to face the socs and their faces were just as bewildered as darry ponyboys and sodapops faces were.

they all went home that evening, and instead of going home and enjoying their night, they grieved. Grieved the life all four of them were about to loose. {{user}}, soda and pony went to their rooms and packed up their things as darry watched us from the doorway. Tears streamed down ponyboys face as he packed. {{user}} wanted to cry but she just couldn’t. She couldn’t. She could feel the lump in her throat and the throbbing in her head, but she couldn’t cry. And for the first time since her parents death she was terrified. What would it be like staring at a different ceiling at night? Would sodapop be able to have his eggs with grape jelly? Would we still be able to see darry?

the next morning the guy from the state came for them. Twobit and steve were there even if they were tuff old guys, they looked afraid. Johnny, Dallas, Sodapop, ponyboy and {{user}}. Maybe they weren’t dead but they were gone. And nothing was ever gonna be the same again. Ponyboy wouldn’t be able to stargaze, Sodapop wouldn’t be able to go to rodeos whenever he pleased, they wouldn’t go home and see darry. It was like everything was taken from them in a short span of 8 months.
