~Ponyboy’s P.O.V.~
“Tell me about the gang. Since I will probably be spending some time with them.” Cleo said and I smiled thinking to myself. I knew that she was going to stay, which made me happy. I didn’t really have many friends and never mind any of them that were girls. Also the gang needed a girl in it. She would fit right in and I knew it. I thought she was really pretty, but I could never tell her that. I had never had a girlfriend before or even a girl that I really liked. She was both tuff and tough. She was strong and the gang would love the fact that she got kicked out of school for fighting. I was brought out of my thoughts as a phone rang. Cleo pulled a cordless one out of her pocket and a smile spread on her face as she saw the screen. I looked at her confused as her held the phone up to her ear. “I’ll explain later.” She mouthed and I nodded. She pulled it away from her ear and brought it back. “First off, ow. And Second, I’m here too so don’t worry.” Cleo said to whoever she was talking to. “Okay text me later and be careful if you go out. There are Socs around and they will jump you.” She said again after a minute. Another minute passed and she hung up the phone. “That was my friend Summer and you are probably confused about the phone.” She said and it wasn’t a question. I nodded anyways. “Okay this is going to sound really weird but,” She took a deep breath, “I am from the future.” She studied my face for any sign of disbelief but I truly did believe her. I searched her face for any sign of craziness but there wasn’t one. “I believe you.” I said and she looked relieved. “You do?” She asked and I nodded. She flashed me her perfect smiled and I flashed one back. “Okay now tell me about the gang since you spaced out before.” She said. “There are seven of us in the gang. Me and my brothers, Dallas Winston, Two-Bit Mathews, Johnny Cade, and Steve Randal. Sodapop is a happy-go-lucky kinda guy and is seventeen. He’s always smiling and can get any girl to fall for him. Which is self-explanatory when you see him. Soda’s got movie star looks. Long greasy golden blond hair and nice blue eyes. Soda has my dad’s eyes they are happy and excited one minute then blazing with anger the next. Perfectly straight teeth that are crystal white. He’s very understanding and smart. He loves horses and works at a gas station around the corner. Don’t listen to him when he says he’s dumb, cause he’s not, but he dropped out and helps Darry to support us. He only smokes to look tough or when something is bothering him and never touches a drop of alcohol. He doesn’t need to; he gets drunk on plain living. He is my best friend, next to Johnny, and my favorite brother. Darry works two jobs at age twenty and had to give up a college scholarship to support Soda and I. Our relationship has become stronger since what happened last year. He is really strong and we sometimes call him “superman”. Darry has shorter brown hair than the rest of us and has got ice blue eyes, like yours almost, but colder. He rarely smiles but has smiled more often recently, which I like. Darry’s good at football and doesn’t smoke or drink for work. He can bake really good and makes dinner for the gang almost every night. Dallas Winston is the toughest of the gang at nineteen. You remind me of him a lot. He’s hot tempered, and likes to fight. His criminal record is longer than anyone can count. No one messes around with him. He doesn’t really love anybody or anything except for maybe Johnny. You look a lot like him too. He’s got long dirty blond greasy hair and cold blue eyes that show almost no emotion. If you look close enough you can see emotion in them. Your eyes are softer than his and to me look caring.” She looked at me with happiness. “Everyone’s usually afraid of me because of my eyes, they think they are cold and that I don’t like anyone, but I do and people just judge me.” Cleo said with a hint of sadness. “Not to me. I like your eyes.” I said and she grinned at me with pure happiness. “Continue on with telling me about the rest of the gang.” She said and so I did. “Two-Bit is the wisecracker of the gang. He always gets his two-bits in, hence the nickname. His real name is Keith but no one calls him that. Two-Bit loves school for some reason and is eighteen years old. He has beer and chocolate cake for breakfast at my house every morning and watches his favorite cartoon, Mickey Mouse. He’s got rusty brown hair and fun-filled grey eyes. That’s about all I know about Two-Bit. Johnny is my best friend. We do a lot together. He is always there to listen to anyone about anything when no one else is. He’s got big brown eyes and black greasy hair. He has a scar on the side of his face from the first time he was jumped and has been jumpy ever since and carries a switchblade. He’s got tan skin and is always wearing a jean jacket. He is like the gang’s little brother and everyone protects him and he reminds me of a lost puppy that has been kicked one too many times. His parents beat him and he only has the gang as family. Lastly is Steve Randal. He has been Soda’s best friend since grade school and that’s the only reason I respect him. He doesn’t like me either. His eyes show a hatred for the whole world. He works at the gas station with Soda and loves cars. He’s got brown hair and brown eyes. Then there is me but you already know me.” I finished and she nodded. “I feel like I know them.” She said. “I am going to see my brother at the gas station want to come and meet him and Steve?” I asked and stood up. I helped her off the counter by grabbing her waist and she nodded. I barely know her and I think I like her.
