Ok this is my 1st attempt at a story so don't bag on me to hard.
Everything is in Ponyboy's POV unless I say other wise.
Thoughts in italics and lyrics in bold.
Enjoy!
I Miss You/ Slipped Away By: Avril Lavigne
I was walking home from the movies when I passed by the house and heard it. It was a sweet voice and it was singing. It was coming from the house next door to ours. I had seen a moving truck with new people in it and hadn't had a chance to introduce myself to them yet.
Perfect time to introduce myself I thought and walked to the back of the house where the voice was coming from. As soon as I rounded the corner, I saw her. She had straight blond hair and that was all I could see because her back was turned to me. But she was singing. It sounded good to.
Na na, na na na, na na The day you slipped away Na na na na na na na I didn't get around to kiss you The day you slipped away I had my wake up Now you are gone, now you are gone The day you slipped away Na Na, Na Na Na, Na Na
I miss you, miss you so bad
I don't forget you, oh it's so sad
I hope you can hear me
I remember it clearly
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Ooooh
Goodbye on the hand
I wish that I could see you again
I know that I can't
I hope you can hear me cause I remember it clearly
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Ooooh
Won't you wake up
I keep asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened, you passed by
There you go, there you go
Somewhere I can't bring you back
Now you are gone, now you are gone
There you go, there you go,
Somewhere your not coming back
Was the day I found it won't be the same no..
The day you slipped away
was the day that I found it won't be the same Ooooh...
I miss you
The song was really sad and when the girl finally stopped playing the guitar she let out a breath and looked at the sky as almost in tribute to whoever the song was for.
Then she said something and it shocked me somewhat. She said as almost she was talking to an invisible person "Hey Johnny. Mom said you died in that car accident and I just want to say that I'm sorry for all the pain and trouble I've cost you. If it hadn't been for me we could of all lived here together and we could have been happy again. I love you Johnny." Then she blew a kiss towards the sky. Her tribute to her Johnny made me wonder where my Johnny was and what was Darry makin for dinner that night.
A voice almost made me jump and give away my position. I looked over at the girl and she was still looking mourning full at her guitar. I looked at my shoulder and hissed at Darry who was standing on the porch in front of our house "What?" He looked at me weird and said "Time for dinner. What are you doing?"
"I'll be in, in a second just go eat."
"Ok then whatever you say."
I could tell Darry was still suspicious and told myself I would deal with all that later as I walked into my house, but not before I looked back over my shoulder and saw that the girl was gone. I smiled a little to myself and thought I could go back over there tomorrow and introduce myself. I closed the screen door and walked inside and saw the entire gang in the living room watching the news. Whatever the heck was so important about the news I couldn't fathom and walked into the kitchen and sat down at the table.
Now of course my life would get a lot more complicated because well its my life and it always gets more complicated. Starting with dinner……..
Well what do you think? Please review, this is my first story and I want to see how I can improve. Thanks for reading!!!!
