I do not own The Outsiders or any of the characters.

"What's it gonna be Ponyboy?"

We stared at each other for what seems like forever before I made my decision.

I cleared my throat. "I made my decision."

She looked at me expectantly. I took a deep breath, preparing myself for what I was about to do. Instead of answering I hopped over the side of the car into the back seat. She turned to look at me with a huge grin on her face.

"You're a smart kid." She said starting the engine and driving.

The whole way to her lab she explained that I could see into the future as well. My body would still be in the present but my mind would show the future. After explaining how I need to do it I tried. My vision went white then I could see what was happening.

I saw my brothers and the gang at my house, but I wasn't there. Everyone looked miserable. Soda and Darry had huge bags under their eyes, and Johnny was looking down at his feet. Two-bit wasn't watching Mickey Mouse, but the news. The news and Two-bit? What kind of dimension would that happen in? Steve acted as if he was happy but in his eyes was sadness. Dally wasn't acknowledging Johnny in the tiniest bit. I turned around and I saw myself and the doctor in a big room. It was full of huge machines and testing equipment. I was tied to a chair and she was yelling at me for not going far enough.

"You are a failure!" she yelled in my face, "I'm glad your brothers cant see you as a failure!" That made me mad and I went back to present time.

As soon as my eyes reopened I was having second guesses about my choice. Darry always says I don't use my head, and at this moment I had to agree. They are my brothers. I cant just leave them like this. What will Sodapop think? What about the gang? I started panicking looking at both of my sides. I had to get out of this car. It was a stupid idea in the first place.

If I wanted to get out I had to jump. Luckily I never used my seat-belt, so she wouldn't hear the click. The car approached a red light and she stopped. This is my chance. I jumped out of the car and started sprinting in the opposite direction, towards the DX since it was closer.

"What are you doing!" she was yelling behind me. I didn't look back. I pushed passed people, not stopping once. I almost got ran over three times. People were flipping me off and yelling at me to slow down. When I finally started slowing down I was at the DX. I burst through the doors, and ran strait up to counter. There were girls surrounding it so I knew Soda was working the counter. I pushed past all the girls and approached Soda."Woah Pon-" I hugged him tightly before he could finish.

"I'm sorry Soda." I kept mumbling, "I'm sorry."

"Why are you sorry?" he questioned, returning my embrace. That was followed by multiple 'aww's from the girls. He pushed me away, holding me at arms length. We walked into the garage to avoid the girls.

"Hey Steve go work inside for a minute would ya?" Soda demanded more than asked. Steve was about to protest until he saw me. He nodded and went inside.

"I'm sorry." I said a little to quick. His eyes showed concern and confusion. He shook his head showing he didn't know what was going on.

"Soda please forgive me. Please."

"What am I forgiving you for exactly," he pulled me back into a tight embrace.

"I was gonna leave you guys." I talked into his chest, "You. Darry. The whole gang. I was gonna leave."

"It's okay," he whispered. He let go of me and wiped tears off my face I didn't know I had. "You came back. You didn't leave." I could tell he didn't know what I meant by 'leave', but he accepted my apology anyway.I stayed until Soda got off, just like before. This time though, he was able to leave earlier. When we got home home the whole gang was there, except Darry. They probably were done with whatever they had going on.

"I'm sorry." I told the whole gang. They looked at me then at Soda, who shrugged. Soon Darry came home and as soon as he entered the door I threw my arms around him. "Thanks Darry. For everything." I felt him hug me back. He must have gave Soda a confused look because Soda said , "I don't know." I was glad to be here. I would give anything up just to stay with my brothers.
