It is time to go into college on the west side. I got an A on my story and was awarded with a full scholarship to a college here in Oklahoma. Cherry and I are moving into a dorm on campus. It is weird to think she is my girlfriend now. She plans to be a teacher and I want to be a writer. I wonder what the socs and greasers will think of us. Will there be a lot of them at this college?

Cherry looks at me and shouts “Pony you can’t be doing this. Out of everyone here I didn’t think you would fight.”
“I ain’t fighting. I’m here to stop everyone.” I answer to her. Both the socs and greasers look to me with a confused look.
“Ponyboy why would you not want fight?” Two-bit says to me.
