DQ- Darry & Jordan
Jordan's POV
As soon as we got here, my sisters and my friends went there separate ways. Mariah, Jamie and Katy were gonna drool over the Greaser Guys, and Kallista, Laney and Sapphire went to go see the new songs on the jukebox. I was alone. I didn't mind it though. I've been alone by myself at the house. I walk over bar of DQ, and sit down on the moveable open backed seat.
"How may I help ya." the waitress asked her.
"A strawberry milkshake, please." I said cheerily. I dig into my pocket to find my money, but the waitress stopped me.
"For you, girlie, it's on the house." the waitress said to me, "You look like ya need a break..how old are ya?"
"Twenty." I answer. The waitress' eyes widened.
"You look so overworked!" she gasped. I laughed.
"Yeah, but have to take care of my sisters. Our Mom died 20 years ago, and our Dad is never there. So the house, my job and my sisters are all my responsibility." I said. I remembered when Mom died. Me, Katy, Sapphire and our Dad changed.
"You remind me of this one young man named Darry." the waitress giggled.
"Darry...Darrel Curtis!" I exclaimed. He was my best friend since forever. We had so much in common after our parents died, but then we just drafted.
"Do you know him?" The waitress asked me as she placed my milkshake in front of me.
"Well yeah ya can say that." I said felt a little dizzy. Darrel Curtis.
"Oh, good. Darry hasn't ever been the same ever since the parents died in an autowreck." the waitress said to me, "Maybe you can shake his core a little, girlie."
I blushed. Darry always been so serious, and so have I. We could be a couple, but those relationships never work. Or would it.
"Well..Darry probably doesn't remember me-umm. Wait what's yer name?" I ask. Great I've been talkin to a complete stranger.
"The name's Pandora." Pandora said smiling at me.
"Pandora, Darrel probably doesn't remember me." I complained.
"We'll see 'bout that 'kay." Pandora said winking at the twenty year old. Then the waitress disappeared in the kitchen. After 20 minutes, she was out. I had finished my milkshake.
"Darrel will be on his way in a minute." Pandora reported to me.
"What! Pandora! I'm not ready to commit yet!" I exclaim.
"Oh yeah you are. You like maybe even love Darrel...believe me yer ready." Pandora said takin' my milkshake flask.
"Fine, but no easvesdroppin'." I said. Pandora wasn't lyin' Darry did come. I looked Darry with eyes widen.
Darry's POV
I'm at the DQ. Ponyboy and the rest of the gang are here. I personally didn't wanna come until Pandora called me. I broke down and went. I approach the bar where a twenty year old young girl and Pandora waited for me.
"Hey Pandora, whatda want?" I ask as she poured me a cup of coffee.
"Well I invited ya down here for two reasons." Pandora started.
"Those reasons are?" I ask annoyed.
"First, ya needed to get outta of that house, and second a girl here that remembers ya." She smiled.
"Are ya screwing with me?" I asked her.
"Nope, she remembers ya from school." the waitress continued.
"Grade or High School." I said takin' a sip of my coffee.
"Both." the waitress smirked. I almost dropped my coffee. The girl lookin' at the menu giggled a little. I rolled my eyes
"She was also yer best friend, and went through the same things as yer." Pandora chuckled at me when I almost coffee.
"The only girl I remember Pandora is Jodie. Or as I called her Jordan.
"Oh so that's her name. She somewhere in this restaurant, Darrel." Pandora teased.
"Look Pandora. She was my first crush and my best friend. That was 20 years ago. I rarely doubt she'll remember me now." I said gettin' angry. Pandora still had a smirk on her face.
"Jordan." She called. The girl that was lookin' at the menu smiled and waved at me.
"Darrel, this is yer old friend and first crush." Pandora said pickin' up the twenty year old by her opened plaid T-shirt. I can't believe my eyes. Jodie Kristin Henderson is standin' right in front of me.
Jordan's POV
I see the expression on Darry's face. Either it's excitement or astonishment.
"Jordan?" Darry asked me as he touched my face.
"Hello Darrel." I say actually happy for once in my life. I couldn't tell if Darry was happy or taken away.
"Jordan if that's you..how did my parents die?" Darrel aked me as he placed his free hand on my face softly.
"In an autowreck, Darrel. Now how did my Mom die?" I asked as he pulled me closer.
"She was hit by a train in her car." Darrel said to me.
"Darry! That is you!" I said huggin' him tightly. He hugged me back swirlin' me around. Is this love or friendship? Probably both. But I don't care. I'm happy just to see Darry.
"See." Pandora said mockly. I chuckled as Darry put his strong arms around my waist.
"Thanks Pandora. Me and Jodie have some catchin' up to do. Jordan how 'bout I buy yer a shake?" Darrel asked.
"I love one Darrel." I smiled as he brushed my hair outta my face. Pandora got us a private table, and brought one large milkshake.
"Thanks, Pandora." we say as she puts down the shake.
"No prob, you lovebirds." Pandora said leavin' Darrel and I alone.
