Chapters 7 + 8 THE OUTSIDERS
Friendship-I think that the word friendship describes chapters seven and eight perfectly. In chapter seven the gang grows a bigger friendship with each other. The greasers spend more time with each other when they all go visit Johnny. They evolve into more of a family and evolve to create a great friendship. Many of the greasers including Johnny grow to become closer together. They are all like brothers. I especially noticed that Ponyboy and Johnny become very close and start to open up to each other. They start to tell each other more about themselves and they become very close friend. They sacrifice their lives even for each other and they become like family. They start to care for each other more and do favors for one another. In chapter 8 the greasers back up Johnny while he is sick and they make sure he’s safe. They even follow him and do favors for him like buys him things and when his mom wants to visit him Pony and Two-Bit don’t let her in. Friendship explains these chapters because they are all about the gang of greasers evolving in their friendship rapidly and becoming more of a family of brothers.
