I will try to fix you(The outsiders/Johnny Cade fanfiction)

Chapter 10

"Um, o-okay."

"What about us? Can we come with you?" I looked at Johnny who looked sort of upset. I turned back to Dally.

"Nope." I said popping the P. Johnny started to smile a bit and that made me happy inside. "Come on then Johnnycake, I need to talk to you." I grabbed his hand and we were off. "Bye, everyone. See you when We can be bothered to come back." I just got a bunch of groans and a cheery goodbye from Two-Bit. Typical Two-Bit.

Johnny and I had been walking in silence until Johnny spoke up. "Why did you ask me to come out with you?" He said it very rudely, I was shocked.

"I just wanted to spend some time with you." I sounded a lot more ruder than I intended.

"Why don't you go spend time with your precious boyfriend?" Johnny started shouting. I didn't know what to say.

"What boyfriend?"

"Dallas. I know you two are going out together tonight!"

"What? How did you find out?"

"I saw him asking you out last night after I stormed out, I also saw you kissing him. Not him kissing you, YOU kissing him. Oh and don't worry, I won't tell anyone about your secret date but I sure as hell won't lie about it if someone asks!" I was taken back. It took me a while to process what was going on.

"I hate you Johnny Cade. I honestly thought you cared about me but clearly I was wrong. I'm always wrong because I'm such a fucking screw up. Don't ever talk to me again. I never want to see your face ever again." Tears threatened to spill out of my eyes but I kept them held back. Johnny's face went from anger to concern so sadness. He reached his hand out for me. "Florence-"

"No, Johnny, don't. You made your self clear enough already. I don't need my heartbreaking anymore." And with that I ran off, making sure my switchblade was still in my pocket. I hadn't learned my way around Tulsa yet so my first instinct was to run home. I walked in the back door and everyone was staring at me as I breathed heavily. I just stood there like a deer caught in headlights. I couldn't wait any longer, I through my long board on the ground and ran upstairs as fast as I could. I herd footsteps behind me. I locked my bedroom door and sat in the corner with my switchblade in my hands. Someone tried opening the door. "Florence let me in. Tell me whats wrong."

"Go away! I don't want to talk about it. Just leave me alone, Two-Bit!"

"Florence-"

"Please, Two-Bit, just go. I don't want to hurt you too." I heard him sigh and walk back downstairs. I through my jacket at the door and stared at my wrist. I promised mysel I would stop. I would've if my life wasn't a death trap. The blade glided across my wrist perfectly and I tried not to gain satisfaction from it. I started crying and I didn't even realise until I saw a dear land on my fat thigh. I started to carve worthless into my arm when Soda burst through the door. He stopped right in his tracks when he saw me. "Florence." I felt like time froze because neither of us was moving. I felt the tears fall and the blood trip onto the carpet and my leg. "What have you done?"

"I deserve it, Soda. I deserve the pain." I started crying harder. I felt an arm around my shoulder.

"Come here, Kiddo."

"I don't want to be here, Soda. I'm not worth the time and effort."

"Now you shut your mouth right now. You are worth everything."

"I'm not, Soda. I'm ugly and fat and stupid and worthless. Everyones lifes would be better off without me in them. No one cares about. I just mess everything up."

"We all care about you, every single one of us. Did you know that shortly after you ran up to your room, Johnny came in crying looking for you. And he never crys after what he's been through. You're beautiful and you are most definately not fat. I'm a high school drop out, I'm the dumb one here. Shoot, I can barely spell real words. You're not worthless to me or Johnny or Two-bit or any member of the gang. You're our sister, our family, our everything."

"Don't kid yourself, Soda. Promise you won't tell no one about any of this. Promise me."

"Just tell me one thing, how long have you been doing it." I looked down at the blood and tears drying on my thigh. 

"For as long as I can remember. I-I even tried." I started crying again. "I even tried to kill myself once. Then I met you guys and I felt like I didn't  have to and then everything started to go downhill and I'm sat here in my best friends arm with blood all over me." He hugged me even tighter.

"I promise I won't tell no one." He kissed the top of my head. "Lets get you cleaned up, shall we?" I nodded and Soda walked me into the bathroom and started to clean my cuts. When he realised I'd carved worthless into my arm he started crying. I didn't think Soda could cry.
