3 days after the carnival (The Pink Ladies & the T-Birds
Rizzo P.O.V.
"I think we should hang out this weekend to celebrate now that we all are going to college we could have a bon-" "A bonfire at the beach" Danny said as he cut Sandy off . She had a little pout on her face as Sonny exclaimed "Yeah that's a great idea ain't it?" Everyone nodded their heads except Rizzo and Kenickie who were busy exchanging saliva.
"Would you two stop eating each others for one minute!" Putzie yelled. "What are we talking 'bout?"Kenickie asked? "We're all goin to the beach this weekend to have a bonfire, you comin?" Frenchy asked. "Yeah, right babe" Kenickie directed his question at Riz. "Um... Sure yeah umhumm" Rizzo said, wrapped up in her own thoughts. "Rizzo can I come over to your house to get ready?" Sandy asked.
I know your thinking, I the great Betty Rizzo are friends with Sandra Dee? Yeah right, well I am. Once I got past the fact she's not all goodie goodie she is pretty cool. I mean I got Kenickie and she's got Danny so we all fine. She's not wearin' all that leather all the time but she's not wearin' long skirts and cardigans.
"Yeah that's fine Sandy" I answered.
The ride back was silent. Once we were at my house we got in. When we stepped in the house there was my dad Rodger Rizzo passed out drunk on the couch. Let me give you a little back story 'bout my parents. My dad owns a restaurant/bar and comes home after work gets drunk then goes back to work I don't like him one bit. Then there's my mother sweet Vivian Rizzo, after I was born my dad got bad started beating my mother, but she roughed it out for me. Then when I was 7 she got pregnant with Andrew James Rizzo or AJ. AJ is the only reason I stay in this house, then my mom got really sick. They say she wouldn't make it till the end of summer. I don't know what I'm gonna do with AJ. Dad certainly can't take care of him so I'll have to step up.
Sandy and I went up to my room when she said she had to pee so I told her the bathroom was on the right. Then I went to go check on my mom and AJ. When I got to AJ's room he was sitting there looking at a car magazine Kenickie gave him. He looked fine so I went to Mom's room. "Mom you look really bad do you want me to call grandma?" I asked. "No I'm fine did you and AJ pack up, I can't believe my little girl's going to college and gettin' your little brother outta this place." She replied. "Yeah we're all packed" "Mom I love ya" I said. "Me too sweetie me too".
With that I left to go to my room were I saw Sandy holding something. As I got closer I had a gut wrenching feeling I knew what that was. Before I could say anything Sandy asked me a question I never wanted to hear. "Riz are you still pregnant because it says so here and I don't think you can lie to me". As I looked up she could see it on my look the answer to her question but she wanted to hear words.
"Yes I am still pregnant with Kenickie's child, but you can' t tell anyone. I don't wanna hold him back in life so I'm leaving tomorrow. With AJ to San Francisco to go to college. They say my mom's not gonna make it so I'm bringing AJ. BUt you can't tell nobody got it." "Yeah but when you leave you gotta call me okay I gotta know about my little niece or nephew!"
