Steve was great babysitter; holding the baby in one hand, a বিয়ার in the other, watching a football game.
“You see Grace, that’s a first down. We’re doing good.” He says, pointing at the screen.
“It’s not like she’s going to like football.” আপনি say as আপনি hand him the bottle.
“Nah, Grace is gonna be the first girl quarterback, aren’t আপনি Grace?” Your boyfriend says, giving her a gentle squeeze.
আপনি smile as আপনি lean against the door frame, looking at your boyfriend.
He smiles up at you. “When can we get one?”
“Get one?” আপনি laugh.
“Hey.” আপনি smile, turning your head to চুম্বন him.
“Miss me?” Ponyboy asks.
“Of course. I haven’t seen আপনি in awhile.”
“I know. I just don’t want your mom and dad to get suspicious, আপনি going to the wrong side of the tracks and all.” He mutters, just holding you.
“I know.” আপনি mutter. “I wish it didn’t have to be this way.”
“Don’t আপনি think I do too?” He says, holding আপনি a bit tighter.
“I know আপনি do.” আপনি whisper.
“I don’t know what I’d do without you. I regret everything that happened when I first walked out. I thought it’d be better for both of us. But I was wrong.” He mumbled into your shoulder.
“I can’t wait till I’m 18. They won’t be able to tell me what to do. And I can have you.”
“And you’ll be mine.” He smiles.
“Love me forever?”
“And always.”
