    Summary

    Darry didn’t know the last time he had slept.

    Not really, anyway. It had been intervals of one, maybe two, maybe three hours a night- if he was lucky.

    He just couldn’t. Not with the bills piling up, not with the social workers breathing down his neck, waiting for him to mess up.

     

    or, Darry Curtis is making himself sick, trying to work as much as possible to support his brothers. He wants to make sure their family stays together.

    Sodapop and Ponyboy just want Darry to take a break.

    Summary

    It wasn't even that high up.
    The thought surfaced from the murky depths of Darry Curtis’ mind as he slowly blinked his eyes open, warm dirt pressing hard into the back of his skull. Getting one arm braced against the dry grass, he started to push himself up and immediately had to stop when the world spun around him and his vision blurred, almost sending him back to a prone position. His stomach gave a sickening lurch; whether it was from nausea or anxiety, he wasn't sure. He did, however, recognize what he was feeling from his days playing high school football.
    Yes, Darry was almost certain that he was concussed.
