Okay so, maybe it wasn't the best idea for me to shatter the back window of a socs car. And maybe it wasn't smart of me to walk down to the Curtis house by myself a day later. I wasn't thinking clearly, in my foolish mind I just envisioned that they would leave all of us the fuck alone for once.

That was a stupid idea...

I got attacked out of nowhere, they weren't in their fancy cars so I couldn't even tell where they had come from. I kicked, punched, stomped, and even spat on after a while, they eventually left me on the sidewalk to stew in all the different bruises and cuts they gave to me. I got up after a while. I winced at the stinging sensation that ran through my body. Now my brain was rushing to come up with an idea on how to get back into the Curtis house without seeming like I was too injured.

All I needed to do was make my way to the bathroom without anyone noticing me. If Darry found out I got jumped for walking by myself he would never let me hear the end of it. I stood near the rusted gate of the house trying to formulate my plan better. I took in a deep breath and put my hood up, I rushed in with one thing on my mind.

Get to that bathroom, clean myself up, and then bolt as soon as I can.

"Hey Y/N." Two-Bit greeted cheerfully.

"Hey," I replied quickly rushing through the kitchen, I ran right into Ponyboy who was now blocking my way into the room I needed to get into.

"Y/N there you are we gotta get started on our-" He noticed how covered up my face was, he started to look worried. "Hey, are you okay?"

"Y-yeah I'm fine." I began to back out of the kitchen, maybe I could get to the bathroom through the living room.

I bumped right into someone who was standing behind me, I could tell it was Darry.

"Y/N... take off the hood."

At this point everyone had turned their attention to me, Mickey Mouse was long forgotten now.

"No." I replied stubbornly.

"Y/N..." Darry called in a stern voice.

"I don't want to, I'm fine." I winced as soon as I finished my sentence, Darry ripped the hood off my head exposing my bruised and slightly bloody face. I didn't even wanna look at Pony's face, I was sure he wasn't too happy with me either.

"Sit down," Darry ordered stoically as he pointed toward the couch in the living room. I just sighed not wanting to piss him off even more. Everyone stared at me as I sat down, all of them looked pissed off. I felt a weight on the seat next to me, I turned to see Ponyboy just staring at me sympathetically.

"Who jumped ya kid?" Dally asked, I just shrugged my shoulders not really wanting to say who did it. The last thing I needed was the people closest to me being stuck in jail.

"C'mon Y/N... just tell us who did it?" Two-bit said.

I just slouched lower into the couch not giving Two an answer, just wishing the floor would swallow me up.

"Johnny be honest, you think it was the same group of kids that did that to your face?" Dally interrogated.

Johnny looked at me, observing my injuries closely, he then shook his head. "Nah, she doesn't have any ring imprints on her face."

The bathroom door had opened signifying Darry had come back with a first aid kit. The questions had simmered down, the TV was the only sound that echoed in the room.
