Chapter One
Jenny's POV
It was the first day of high school. There were a lot of unknown faces but at least I was with my two best friends, Jessica and Sam. We were all 16 and even though we were in gr.11 there doesn't mean that we knew everyone. We kind of just kept to ourselves never really bothered with anyone else. Even though we moved here last year. Jessica had shoulder length brown wavy hair, she had greenish eyes, she was an only child and she enjoyed it. Sam had her hair past her shoulders and it was really blond and curly. She had big baby blue eyes. I loved her eyes. Me on the other hand I had not perfectly straight but straight enough dark brown hair just past my shoulders and that's the way I liked it. I mostly always had it in a ponytail anyways. I also had dark brown eyes.
We were talking about the usual. But when we started talking about school, we realized that our schedules were all different. The only thing was that me and Jess had the same gym class. Another good thing was that our lockers were all going to be in the same block and we could always talk at lunch. So that was good.
Then I realized Sam looking over at a group of greasers just down the hall. I guess Jess noticed cause she said, "Sam, get real.. do you even know them?" Sam kind of just stood there staring blankly down the hall. I nudged her a bit. "Sam? Hello earth to Sam!" "Oh sorry guys." Sam replied. "see the guy there with the blond hair? I think hes kinda cute." She kinda blushed but smiled at the same time. "Oh Sam has a crush!" Jess teased. "Go over and talk to him" I insisted. But she refused she used "not knowing them" as an excuse. "well I guess im just going to have to do it for you then." I said.
I turned and headed down the hall straight to the guys. I looked back only to see Jessica trying to calm Sam down. I laughed to myself a bit. When I reached them I joined their little huddle. "Hey guys." I said with a smile. "what you up to?" They all turned their heads and looked at me. A tall lean guy with brownish blondish hair stepped over to me and put his arm around my shoulders. "hey babe." He said flirtatiously. "hey im jenny.. and you are?" "Oh im Dally." I smiled nicely and looked at the rest of the gang with a look on face saying 'are you going to introduce me to the others' He got the hint and started going around the circle.
"This is Ponyboy." He pointed to the blond one that Sam had talked about. He continued, " this is Johnny, Two-Bit and Steve." Johnny was about my height, he had jet black hair, that was greased back, tanned skin and big black puppy dog eyes. He looked kind of shy. Two-Bit was just a bit taller then me and had dirty blond hair and Steve was almost Dally's height but not quite. He had dark brown hair, but not as dark as mine.
I noticed that Johnny was smoking. "hey Johnny, can I have one of those? I am dying for a one." Obviously I was referring to the cigarette. I had totally had forgotten that my friends were still watching me. "you smoke?" Two-Bit asked in disbelief. "Yeah of course." I replied looking at him as if were crazy. This is the south side, practically everyone here starts smoking at a young age. I turned back to Johnny. "sorry I don't have any left." He replied. He seemed kind of sad that he couldn't give me one. "that's ok.. this one will do." I said and I grabbed the smoke he had and popped it into my mouth.
Just then I remembered about Sam. "Oh yeah Ponyboy, I almost forgot.." I started. "My friend over there.. she kinda likes you." I said. He looked over at where my were standing and smiled faintly. Then I added, "she is the one with blond curly hair, her name is Samantha." He smiled bigger this time. Steve realized and said "Oh now Pony likes her." He turned around and shot him a nasty look "shut up" he said. "hey I wouldn't blame you.." two-bit said. "shes gorgeous."
Then all of a sudden a teacher was lurking over my shoulder and he said "hey you aren't supposed to be smoking on school grounds.. Ms.. ms.." "Just call me Jenny" I said as I rolled my eyes. "ok.. well Jenny you aren't supposed to be smoking on school property." He said once again. "and we aren't because why? It is a free country is it not?" "you know what, I don't need your attitude." He snapped back. "Come with me to my office right now." I dropped the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it with my heel. I put my hands in my pockets slouched a little and followed. As I passed the gang they were all standing there.. in shock.
