Nothin' ... I ain't saying nothing ... -His accent came out thicker and there was a bit of pain in his voice. He couldn't tell the boy about Johnny. That was one thing he just couldn't explain. He sighed a little bit and he reached out brushing his fingers through that dark hair. He felt his breath hitch as the boy's scent hit him hard again and than he pulled out with a pained moan ... - Don't ... don't come close ... -He stumbled back and finally just leaned back against the tree. He slide down a little bit and brought his knees up looking like a kid. He was chewing on his bottom lip and he wished to god Soda was there. He needed him more than ever ... - We are Kit ... -He choked out softly staring at the ground ... - We're ... we're vampires ... we kill little boys like you ... or we did ... untill we stayed here ... untill we finally killed the one who made us ... and got free ... -He pushed up slowly waiting to see the horror in Kit's eyes ... - Now ... now we just eat animals ... for the blood ... we don't eat nothing else .. we don't drink ... we don't sleep ... we don't breath ... and we never ever grow up ... I'm always gonna look this ... 14 .... and Soda always gonna look 16 ... and Darry always looks 20 ... and no matter how much I don't wanna hurt you ... I might ... why you couldn't come with us Kit ... we might kill you ... -He sighed softly staring at the ground ... - Damnit ... Damnit ... why does everything good gotta die ... why ...

~Kit's eyes went wide in shock. He couldn't believe what Pony was saying, what he was trying to get out. Kit just shook his head and moved in closer to Pony, finally sitting down next to him, but keeping enough space since Pony didn't' seem to want to be touched.~
You ain't lyin, are ya?
~He could tell by the mournful way Pony was lookin at him. He sighed a little bit.~
What about Joe? He's not like you? And Possum ain't and neither is Gabriel... and you and Possum.. you guys are real close.. I've seen you two.. so... how come they can be close but I can't?
~He sounded a bit like a wounded puppy when he asked that question. He sighed some, looking down at the ground and picked up a blade of grass.~
You'd have had to tell me eventually, I'd have caught one at some point... so... where's the fangs? And you were out in the sun that first day..... so... if you're some blood suckin fiend from beyond the grave, where's all the typical vampire stuff, huh?
~It wasn't that Kit didnt' believe the boy, it was just, well he was curious. He ran a hand through his hair.~
Look... noone else has to know. I don't think Nicky's gonna be messing around with you guys much anymore. He wanted me to stay away... and... well I sort of lost it on him. He dropped me off where I left Loki and we didn't much say anything to one another... so... see... no harm... I won't tell a soul... and you wouldn't hurt me, Pony. I trust ya. I have faith in you...
~He was trying to give Pony a good reason to stay, to see it wasn't all bad.~
Just.. ya know.. don't tell Darry... he don't have to know.. and I can pretend to be stupid about the whole thing... kay? Please don't leave, Pony... you're like the only friends I got... I can't go back to how it was before...You just can't leave... you can't.

I wish I was lying Kit … I wish I was … -Pony sighed a little bit lighting up a shakey cigarette. He needed it to calm his nerves and he’d been smoking more and more since they’d been going vegetarian. He found the scent of the cigarette drowned out the scent of human a bit, enough to make it bearable. That was as long as no one was bleeding anyway. When Kit sat down beside him Pony offered a little smile … - I … -Pony was caught in a weird place. He doubted Possum would take it well if Kit found out about him but he couldn’t just tell the boy that he could be close to Possum but no one else. He stared with those amber eyes … the way Kit looked so wounded well it was a dagger to Pony's heart and he couldn't deny him ... - You gotta swear not to tell anyone anything I tell you right now Kit … promise me on whatever’s sacred to you … you keep playing dumb I’ll tell you all o.k … -He chewed on his bottom lip that dark hair falling across half his face …. – Possum’s … kinda like us … I mean … he’s like … well you know in movies … werewolves … well he’s like that only a coyote … it’s why I can be so close to him … he doesn’t smell to me like … well like food ya know … he's real strong too so I'm not afraid to hurt him ... you remember that day when I pushed Nicky off you and dented the car by accident ... I barely touched him Kit ... just barely ... and I almost killed him ... -He frowned a little bit … - I think Possum’s gonna kill me if he finds out I told you … he’ll be so mad … you can’t tell him Kit … you can't even look at him strange kay … please … -Pony sighed his voice soft and a bit mournful … - Joe is strange too … he is a werewolf … and Gabriel really is human … it’s why Soda looks … well you seen when Soda is close to Gabe … and he kinda looks in pain the whole time … it’s cause it’s so hard for us to control what we are … but we really are trying Kit ... there are others like us that don't kill people ... and they been doing it for years and years ... so I know it can be done ... just gotta try ... and I promise I won’t ever hurt you … -He smiled a bit as it all spilled out … - Well no I don’t go no fangs. Sun doesn’t hurt us … but like direct sun … when it ain’t cloudy out … it makes us stand out really bad … I’ll show you some day … why we stay mostly in the house and come out at night or on really cloudy days … I never seen anything else true like it is in the movies … no crosses and none of that stuff … -He shrugged a bit and stared across at Kit. He reached out his hand and gently brushed some of that dark hair away … he looked and sounded so much like Johnny … especially right now beginning not to be left behind … - I know Kit … I don’t wanna go … I’ll try and make sure none of them find out you know … and you keep playing real dumb … and I dunno about Nicky … if you can make sure he never tells anyone else than maybe he’ll just forget about all this … maybe … -Pony looked down at the pictured and chewed on his lip. He wasn’t sure he was doing the right thing and Darry might kill him for this but he couldn’t lose Possum and part of him couldn’t lose Kit either. Some part of him wanted to turn the boy and keep him with him forever. He looked at the happy faces in the picture. It was taken just a few months before everything went to shit … -

~Sitting there listening to Pony spill his guts was a bit much, but Kit just nodded, playing dumb right now didn't seem so hard. The more he talked about Possum and Joe, well it sort of set off a bit of a chain in Kit's head. All those stories of Coyote protecting the tribe when he was a child and his Gran paying homage to Coyote and then not that long ago Possum was taken out and trained and then when he returned, just last summer, something was different. They'd said he was a man now, but Kit had known different.~
I knew somethin was different about Possum... I knew it... He came back at the beginning of the school year and he looked different, acted different, would disappear with this other group of guys that he never hung out with before... they always kinda kept to themselves, ya know...
~He sighed some.~
So, if it's so hard on you, why do you and the others let Gabriel around? I mean he's nothin but trouble, even my Gran says and my Gran knows alot. She said he was trouble, I heard her talkin to Possum's mom.
~Finally he glanced over at Pony who pushed some of his hair out of his face.~
I can play real dumb, I've been quiet for so long, it shouldn't be hard. And I can talk to Nicky about it, if you think I should. I don't want him running off to tell anyone, not that they'd believe him.. it's not like he got any proof. I was gonna return the picture, Pony... I was.. and the book. I was gonna ask you about it and tell you. Cause I didn't want you to be mad at me...

Yeah … there’s a whole bunch like Possum around here … they know about us … say we can stay around as long as we don’t hurt anyone … the moment we do they might kill us … or run us off …
-Pony sighed a bit relaxing somewhat when Kit didn’t freak out about Possum. He’d been afraid that’d be too much for Kit and he didn’t want for Possum to find out. He couldn’t bare for the boy to hate him. He rolled his eyes as the second question and shook his head … -
Trust me … Gabriel ain’t around cause I want him … but he’s best friends with Possum and Soda likes him an awful lot too … so … ain’t much we can do about it … I guess in a way it’s kinda good to have him around … and you too … so we can get used to people … I feel … well … more human when you are around Kit … I like that feeling a lot … I haven’t felt it in a while …
-Pony smiled a bit and nodded and than the smile grew a bit … -
I couldn’t ever be mad at you Kit … not ever …
-He let his hands play across the picture and than he shoved it gently into the book and held it out to Kit for the boy to take … -
Here … I want you to keep this … those two things most important thing to me in the whole world … just so you know I won’t disappear on you … I won’t leave without those … remember that kay …
-Pony smiled a bit and than he reached out a bit slowly and tugged Kit to him hugging him close. It took all the effort he had not to bite the boy but he found in a way it was easier with him than anyone else. He ran his fingers through his hair and buried a bit into him … -
I guess you should get home and get some sleep … I should be going too … coyotes been watching us since I got here … I ain’t supposed to be on your land … come by tomorrow after school kay … we can hang out … and don’t show no one that book or picture … and yeah … talk to Nicky … don’t tell him nothing just not to talk …
-He pulled back slowly and stood feeling a bit better and he stopped staring down at the younger boy. Those dark eyes melted him a little bit. He was so much like Johnny. He looked like him and talked like him and Pony felt this was a kindred spirit. Someone he could talk to. He’d only ever had Johnny and Soda for that and right now him and Soda hardly spent much time together anymore … -
Bye Kit ...

~Kit was surprised that Pony gave him the book and picture. He took it, his fingers tracing over the edges of it and then he was hugged and Kit melted a bit against Pony, hugging him back some.~
Thanks, Pony... for not being mad and stuff... Ya know.. it feels like we've been friends for a long long time.. ya know what I mean by that. Is that corny?
~He grinned a bit and then his eyes wandered the darkness, but ofcourse he couldn't see any of the Coyotes out there. He stood when Pony did and shrugged.~
Be careful goin home... I'll see ya tomorrow...
~Kit didn't go home though, instead he crept into his Gran's house and curled up on her sofa. It felt safer there and some how he knew he was being guarded, that there were coyotes out there that could change into men watching him to make sure he was safe. He pulled down a blanket, wrapping it around him. His mind was swirling with everything Pony had told him and now, now he was so sure what to say to Nicky.~

-Pony smiled as he felt the boy hugging him back. He shut his eyes for a moment and let out a soft sigh. For a moment he imagined having Johnny back and it was like everything was good. He had that dreamy look in his eyes as he pulled back and it was hard for Kit to not believe that this boy was just 14. Just his age. No bigger cause he had a soft look in his eyes … -
Nah … ain’t corny at all … just the truth … it’s cause me and you are queer ya know … different … like Soda is different … I feel like I could talk to you about stuff … I couldn’t tell the others … like Darry who’s too hard … or even Joe … or even Possum I think …
-Pony pushed up and than laughed … -
Yeah I’ll be careful …
-He found that a little fun and than he was gone just like that. He knew Possum would know he had been on Res land but he’d just say he had come to see Pony and had forgotten he wasn’t supposed to be there. It’d be easy. Lying to Darry and Soda would be a lot harder. Lying to Soda would be worst. When he got back home Joe and Darry were sitting outside talking. Pony slipped past them and then went in his room. He dropped on the mattress and stared out the window at the moon. A part of him was now happier than ever that Kit knew. It felt like he had his own best friend. Something outside this stupid vampire mess. A part of him felt pain at the thought of not being able to tell Soda. He didn’t know but he just couldn’t tell him. He felt a disconnect now with the one person he’d never thought he would and it hurt worst than anything. Maybe it was just jealousy on his part but he felt that Gabriel had taken his place somehow. He sighed and pushed up grabbing an old book and flipping it open wanting to just forget about it all ... -

~Soda had heard Pony come in the house, he'd also heard him leave. He ALSO had picked up Nicky's scent. So when Pony was just laying on the bed, he'd fell Soda's presence in the door. The vampire was leaning on it, staring at Pony with those now golden eyes.~
So... where'd ya high tail it too?
~Soda pushed off the door jam and moved towards the bed. He could feel this chasim between them, a huge ravine that he couldn't pull back together. It was killing him some. He couldn't deny the jealousy that rocked through him. He wanted to grab Pony, pull the boy into bed and keep him there for days until Pony knew for SURE that he belonged to Soda, with Soda. But he didn't. He didn't want to ruin this for Pony and he wasn't so sure that Pony wasn't angry with him. He sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at the boy.~
What's goin on Pony? I know someone's been in the house... in this very room.. and so do you... and then you take off like you seen the devil... so what's up with that huh?
~He cocked his head, that dark hair falling in golden eyes. He still looked stunning, even here in the dark. Pony could make out some of Soda's features, but still the vampire seemed so far away from him.~

No where … just goin’ for a walk …
-Pony shrugged a little bit. He pushed up from the bed and leaned back against the broken wall staring across at Soda. He was lying to Soda and it was coming so easily. He knew than that he was angry with Soda. He’d been ignoring it but he was angry with him. He hated him for how much Soda had made him want him and love him, and for having been with Snare all those years, and now for being with Gabriel and he knew that when they did have to leave Soda would come back to him and expect him to just be there. Those dreamy eyes looked off but there was a faint edge to them … -
I didn’t smell anyone …
-Pony shrugged again and grabbed his book opening it up … -
Look Soda just drop it … it was nothing … so let it go …
-He snapped a little bit at him not wanting the boy to start running his mouth off and for Darry to hear him. He couldn’t lose Kit and Possum. He didn’t want to leave this house that had begun to feel like home. He was tired of running. Tired of it all. He shivered a bit remember the photo for a moment and his eyes become a bit distant. He wished he was back than when things were so much simpler. He’d give anything to wipe out the last 50 years … anything at all. Even so as he thought back to those times he couldn’t help but glance up at Soda and some of the anger was gone. The vampire was still the most beautiful thing Pony had ever seen, he had that movie star quality about him, Pony had been awestruck from the first moment, and than Soda wasn’t like the others, they’d gone to the movies and talked for hours. That had been and this was now … and now everything was fucked …. -

~Soda didn't like how Pony snapped at him and he KNEW, just knew that Pony was lying. But he didn't have any proof save that he could smell that someone was in the house. He moved in to Pony then, cocking his head and leaning in real close. He pulled back then, that brow cocking.~
You've been with Kit. Where you on the Res, Pony?
~He wasn't yelling, but there was an edge to Soda's voice as well. He shook his head and knew then that things weren't ever gonna go back to how they had been. Pony was out and out lying to him and worse, he was doing it so easy. He sat back on the bed, staring at the wall on the opposite side of the room.~
what'd I do, Pony? You're all pissed off at me and I don't even know what I did to piss you off so bad?
~But Soda knew as he said it, that was an exaggeration of the truth. He kinda knew, kinda. He thought though it was more because of the way he treated Possum then because he was messing with Gabriel. Soda had convinced himself that if he had Pony right now, that Gabriel would be a non issue. And further still, he'd convinced himself that Pony was the one that started messing around with Possum. That he'd just waited to long to do anything about it. And now he'd lost Pony. He wanted to pretend to be the bigger man, to stand back and let Pony have this, that he deserved to have Possum. But that was hard.~
~Soda knew he wasn't treating Possum very fair and he knew he wasn't treating Pony fair cause of it. But ofcourse he tried to tell himself that this had nothing to do with all of that. That Pony had a secret and he wasn't talkin. It stung, enough so that Soda was lookin to pick a fight with the younger vampire, enough so that Soda knew that this was gonna blow up in his face and he'd probably regret it. It wasn't like with Snare, whom he could piss off and 10 minutes later they were having angry sex and then everything was okay, it wasn't like that, cause Pony was to sensitive for anything like that. Or least that's what Soda tried to tell himself.~

-Ponyboy remained sitting there leaning back against the wall. He felt Soda suddenly close and he knew his heart would explode. It hurt now worst than ever cause he wanted to reach out and having him close but than he smelled Gabriel all over him. Worst than ever before and he could feel the irritation rising inside of him … -
Yeah I was on the Res … I walked him home to make sure he got there safe … so …
-He knew it wasn't quiet allowed and Soda knew Pony wouldn't have done it without having a great need for it because Pony never did anything without thinking about it long and hard. He was sensitive and dreamy maybe but he wasn't stupid. He was thoughtful and quiet. He didn't like the edge in Soda's voice and than the boy was staring off and Pony looked a bit startled by the question and than he frowned pushing him and as he spoke his voice rose a bit with pain … -
You don't know huh … you have go no idea … why I'm mad … cause you choosing Snare over me was one thing but now … Gabriel … over me … again … when I told you that boy is bad news and my opinion means shit to you … and when it's gonna go bad with him .. and it WILL … you gonna come to me … and expect me to just be there ... cause I'm just here to follow you around like a puppy and you still thing I'm just some 14 year old kid ...
-Pony's voice rose and he pushed up and than tossed the book at Soda and it slammed against the wall beside his head. Pony's eyes blazed a little bit and he stood knowing he didn't mean to let it all spill out or that he really angry at Soda but it hurt to see him with Gabriel and smell the human on him. When Soda should be with him … with fucking him … and he was never gonna be with him cause Soda just saw him as some little kid … -
… and forget about the fact you're putting us all in danger … cause if you kill Gabriel we're gonna have to leave … and I'm gonna lose Possum .. and Kit … now you fucking know … happy … so if you're gonna mess with Gabriel and have your little secrets I get to have mine …
-He pushed from the room moving out the door. He needed to get away from Soda. He could already feel tears sting his eyes or maybe he just thought tears were stinging his eyes. He wasn't sure but he knew he'd never lied to Soda before and never yelled at him and he had that night and it hurt worst than anything had ever hurt before …. -

~Soda was shocked. That was the best way to say what he was feeling. He was out and out shocked. He'd never once had Pony yell at him, not once. And to toss something at him like that. It had totally shut Soda up. But more so the words, they'd cut Soda to the quick. He watched Pony stalk out and for a moment the vampire just sat there. But then he pushed up. He was infront of Pony so fast that it was like he'd just appeared there. He grabbed the younger vampire and slammed him into the wall roughly. The plaster on the wall crumbled beneath them and those golden eyes were blazing.~
You got any CLUE how UNFAIR that was?
~He snarled into Pony but he didn't let the boy go, he was so close Pony could smell him, feel him, and for a moment Pony had to wonder if Soda was going to fuckin hurt him.~
you WERE a KID when we met PONY... a KID... a little fucking KID... and I LOVED SNARE... so... ya know... fuck you... Pony... You think any of this is easy for me. Stepping back for you to be with Possum... cause I see.. I SEE how happy he makes you...
~He slowly let Pony loose, slowly, but his hands were still in Pony's shirt.~
What makes you think that I don't SEE you Pony? Jesus Christ Pony... I'm see you so much, I'm GREEN with it...
~He pushed off Pony then and his face was filled with so much pain and sorry that Pony had never not once seen Soda look like that, save when Snare was gone. He pulled away and turned, his head shaking. He turned and started down the steps. At the bottom of the steps Joe and Darry were standing staring up at them. Soda froze, but the look on his face would chill Death. Joe's brow arched and Soda moved down the steps brushing past the two of them. Joe blinked and then looked upstairs at Pony and then nodded to Darry to go after Soda as he moved up the steps to go after Pony.~

-Pony had just wanted to get away. He wanted to run back to the reservation and curl up in bed with Possum and Kit. Than suddenly Soda was close to him and Pony gasped as he was slammed against the wall. He stared a bit shocked and for a moment he actually flinched when Soda came in even closer. He was sure the boy would hit him, hurt him, and he wasn't so sure he didn't deserve it but it stung all the more that it was Soda. They had always gotten along, they'd never yelled at one another, and Pony had never imagined he'd be afraid of the boy ... -
I ... I ...
-He couldn't speak for a second and than Soda had let him go ... -
DAMN YOU SODA POP! JUST RUN ... I'm NEVER gonna talk to you again!
-Pony yelled after him feeling tears cloud up his vision as he moved back into the house and slammed the door behind him. He slipped into his room and leaned back against the wall bringing his knees up to his chest. Pain slid down his chest wracking him with pain. The look on Soda's face had made him feel like was just 14 all over again and he felt like such a child. He couldn't stay here anymore. He just couldn't. Not with him fighting with Soda who had never ever wanted to fight with. He wondered if Possum would let him stay with him and the coyotes. Maybe they'd accept him. He pushed up and Joe would find the smaller vampire packing up some of his clothes and books as he wiped away a few tears from his eyes looking like a little kid running away from home. Darry's eyes had widened a bit and he sighed a bit. He moved after Soda letting him walk a little bit and let off some steam before he stopped him slipping up in front of him ... -
Woah Soda ... wanna tell me what that was all about huh?
-Darry hated that Joe had been right. Something was obviously going on between Soda and Pony with them fighting like that and he needed to make them make up. He couldn't lose Soda or Pony. He just couldn't. They had to make up and of course they would. It was Soda and Pony. They always got along. This was just one fight in 50 years. It was bound to happen and they'd get over it right? He sighed putting his hand on Soda's shoulder ... -
Hey ... it's o.k ...
-Darry frowned a bit seeing the look in Soda's eyes ... he rarely saw the boy in this kind of a mood. This had to be something big. Something bad maybe ... -

~Joe slipped into the room quiet as a thief, just watching Pony for a moment, then he walked over, took the shirt from Pony and pulled the boy into him, hugging him. Darry probably wouldn't have been so gentle, but Joe was just wrapping those warm arms around Pony and nuzzling into him.~
It's gonna be okay, Pony...
~He could see how bad the boy was hurting and Joe was no blind fool. He'd seen this coming even if Darry didn't. So he slowly pulled back and brushed that dark hair from those eyes.~
Stop packin, you ain't goin nowhere... this is your family... for better or worse... come on... come here...
~He tugged Pony to the bed and set down with him. He'd wrap his arms around Pony again if the boy would let him.~
I'm sorry Pony. Honest I am. I can see how bad this hurts you, you were all your emotions on your sleeve for the world to see. Want me to kick his ass for ya?
~He was trying to make Pony feel somewhat better. He knew arguing with Pony wasn't going to work, but he'd wait to plead Soda's case a bit until Pony was feeling a little better.~
~Outside Soda was walking off and it wasn't until Darry was infront of him that he stopped. ~
no... you're wrong Darry... it ain't gonna be okay... I could have hit him back there.. shit... I almost did, or just as good as.. I'd never...
~He closed his eyes shakin his head. He was tryin to keep it together infront of Darry. Big ole strong Darry, who Soda was pretty sure wouldn't really get this. But when he looked up at Darry, the pain was evident in Soda. He looked away with a sigh.~
He blames me... blames me for being with Snare... said I chose Snare over him... and that I'm doing the same thing with Gabriel....
~His voice was raw with it as he spoke. He started chewing his lip to keep himself from just bawlin like a little kid.~
How am I suppose ta... Maybe it's my turn to be the fuckin monk... huh?
~He shrugged a little at that, acknowledging to Darry that he'd known for all these years, he'd known that Pony wanted him. He pulled away from Darry and leaned against a tree. He realized for the first time in a very long time he was shaking.~
He's right... about Gabe... he's trouble... and he wants me to bite him... he WANTS it... and he pushes me...
~Soda laughed, but it was cool like a man loosing his mind a little bit.~
And all I can do is think how sick and pissed I am to watch Pony and Possum all fuckin wrapped up on one another... God... FUCK...
~He turned then and punched the tree, causing the trunk to splinter a bit. His forehead went against it them and he closed his eyes trying to push back tears that were already stinging his eyes and rolling down his cheeks.~

-Pony wanted to push Joe off for a second but he crumbled a bit into that embrace and shivered. He could feel the pain wracking into him at the certain knowledge he’d just fucked everything up with Soda and that was it. He couldn’t stay here. Him and Soda wouldn’t be friends. Soda would never forgive him. Fuck he’d looked so mad and so hurt … -
It’s not …
-His voice hitched in his throat as if he couldn’t breath. He stared up at the stunning vampire. Those big dreamy eyes that seemed to feel too much and hold too much were now full of pain. He shook his head almost violently … -
I can’t … I’m not staying … he hates me now … I can’t stay here … I’m gonna go stay at a hotel … or beg Possum to let me stay with him … I don’t care but I’m not staying here and you can’t make me Joe …
-The words spilled out quickly and Joe could almost see that for a night or two Pony did intend to leave. Or at least right now he intended to leave. He sighed though faintly and allowed the wolf to tug him down to the bed and when he pulled him in closer Pony slipped against him and buried into him a bit. He liked that the wolf was warm and he smelled so much like Darry. He pulled back a bit shocked and than he stared down at the ground … -
You know …
-Poor boy he’d been so certain he’d been hiding all his emotions so no one could see at the very least than he could pretend that Soda didn’t know but now he knew that he had known, everyone knew, and he didn’t care for him and now he’d managed to fuck up the friendship part too. He smiled a little at the last bit before shaking his head softly … -
I really fucked it up … I didn’t mean to yell at him honest … it just spilled out and now … he was so mad … he looked like he might hit me … I never thought … I have to go … please don’t stop me … I just need to leave … I can’t face him … not right now … maybe tomorrow … please will you drive me into town …
-The boy stared across with a pleading soft look in his eyes. He felt like just crying and he didn’t care that Joe would know he wasn’t tuff. He didn’t care anymore. He’d lost Soda and that hurt worst than everything else in the world. He couldn’t look at him right now when he came back. He just couldn’t. Outside Darry sighed brushing some of that dark hair from Soda’s face … -
Come on … it’ll be o.k … you both just got mad and had a fight … me and lucky got mad lots of times … don’t mean nothing … you’ll go in there and make up with him and Pony will read you from one of those stupid books of his and it’ll be alright …
-Darry smiled a little bit trying to sooth Soda but it fell slowly and he shook his head a bit as he moved in a bit closer. He didn’t try to hug Soda. That wasn’t in him but in those eyes Soda could almost see that the vampire knew but he wasn’t sure what to say. He wasn’t good at talking like this about feelings and emotions. He wished Joe was here to talk with Soda too but finally he just tried a little bit seeing Soda so upset … -
Do you want him Soda … as more than a friend?
-He cocked his head to the side a bit his brow furrowing but than Darry’s eyes widened … -
Gabriel fucking wants WHAT?!
-His voice rose a bit at the end but than Soda was talking and than he punched the trees and Darry could see him crying. He sighed a little bit pausing for a moment and standing there and than he leaned in a bit and tugged the smaller vampire into him and held him close. He was crushing him a little bit but they were both vampires so it didn’t hurt all that much. Darry’s mind was racing. He knew Gabriel would be trouble and now Possum was pushing a hole between Soda and Pony. He sighed running his fingers down Soda’s back-
It’s gonna be o.k Soda … I think … maybe we should move on from here … it’s bringing us trouble … and I don’t want to lose you or Pony … maybe we need to go … for a little while anyway … and come back in a year or something…
