Sodas Cake: A Short Story
As always, Sodas cake had way too cocoa powder and sugar in it. Half the time I'm convinced that's all he puts in his cake. But this time, however, just to mix things up a bit, he decided to cook gummy worms into the cake. I tried to stop him, but all my efforts just ended in me reluctantly choking down the sour, melted gummy worms covered in chocolate.
It was extremely disgusting.
Darry let out a rare laugh when he emerged from his shower and saw the state of his breakfast.
"What did you do to it, little buddy?" He drawled, trying to seem annoyed, but he was still smiling.
"It's like dirt pudding, right?"
"No," I shook my head, which was a bad idea because it just made my head pound harder. "It's not at all."
"Alright, Ponyboy," …show more content…
Or is it Jimmy? I can't never remember.." I joked, watching as Ponyboy's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
I laughed. "Of course. You don't joke about John Wayne."
We got to the movie theaters a few minutes early so we got to pick the best seats. We sat Darry, Ponyboy, Two-Bit, Steve, and then me on the end.
I was talking to Steve about some rude Soc that brought in some tuff mustang that he had totally not taken care of when I heard Ponyboy let out a few deep coughs. I turned my head just in time to see a cloud of smoke pass between Ponyboy and Darry's heads, causing Pony to start coughing even harder. He pulled out his inhaler, administering a puff, but it was taking longer to act than I would have liked.
I glowered for a second before I saw Darry lean forward.
"Excuse you, but I think you might like to put out that cigarette. Thanks," Darry challenged unapologetically, sounding completely fake friendly. The guy was some middle class guy, at least 20-something there with some girl with black curly hair. If it was anybody else that guy would have clocked Darry, but he just silently put out the cigarette.
I glanced back to Ponyboy and saw that he was rubbing his chest, but his coughing was less
