Bryon's encounter with Angela, leading to his realization of her pregnancy. Mark's involvement in drug dealing and the resulting violence. The betrayal between Bryon and Mark, leading to their falling out. M&M's overdose and Bryon's guilt over not being able to prevent it. Bryon's arrest after Mark sets him up with stolen property from the drug deal. The rift between Bryon and his parents due to his behavior and choices. Bryon's ultimate realization of the consequences of his actions and the importance of taking responsibility for them.
Well Bryon is the protagonist. So I would say the antagonist is Mark because of the conflict of growing up that he and Bryon face which tears them apart. Throughout the story, Bryon realizes how he needs to start behaving to get a job and be more responsible so he begins to grow up while Mark doesn't. Bryon realizes he's changing and Mark will never change because he has no sense of right form wrong. Initially, this bothers Bryon to the point he turns Mark into the police.
Loyalty is one theme of many. Bryon wants to be loyal to Mark, who is like his brother, but at the same time, Bryon doesn't like Mark's violence and drug usage. Later, Bryon is loyal to Cathy and M & M and so he must break his loyalty to Mark and have him arrested. Bryon really struggles with who to be loyal too throughout the novel. This is also a big theme in other S.E. Hinton books, including the Outsiders.
