Chapter 7

I slept over at the Curtis' house like I do sometimes when I get lonely, also my face was still throbbing and I didn't feel too great, getting jumped was really starting to hit me and I felt to achy to walk home so Sodapop plopped a mattress on the floor of the bedroom he and Pony share and I slept there. As I lay awake in bed I thought about everything that happened that day. Im Sodapops girlfriend. I thought to myself. Sodapop Curtis is my boyfriend. Oh my gosh. I couldn't believe my own thoughts and I went to sleep with a smile on my face. When I woke up the sun was shining bright and Soda and Pony were already up. I climbed out of bed feeling even more sore then the day before and hobbled into the kitchen for something to eat. As always the boys were stuffing there faces with eggs and chocolate cake. I went over and sat on Sodas lap seeing as the two extra chairs were taken over my Two-bit and Dally. Dally winked at me, but nobody else seemed to find this strange. I took a bite of his eggs smothered in grape jelly. I made a fake grossed out face. I always made fun of him for putting jelly on his eggs even though I didn't think it tasted so bad. He poked my cheek and smiled at me.

" I like your bedhead." He told me. I halfheartedly patted the top of my head being ale to feel my brown curls sticking up everywhere.

"Ugh hair! You boys are so lucky you don't have to deal with so much of it."
"Ill cut it off for ya babe." Two-Bit told me flicking open his prized black switchblade. He'd use any excuse to take it out and show it off.

"Nooo thank you. I wouldn't trust you near my neck with a sharp object. Plus I don't think I could rock the short hair." I sighed. Sometimes I really did hate my hair. I wanted it to be straight and blonde or at least straight.

"Oh sure you would." Darry laughed as Two-Bit fake pouted. "Want some eggs?"

"No thanks Ill stick with cereal." I told him and Soda laughed.

"We don't have lame stuff like cereal here, but ill walk ya back to your place before work if you want."

"Yeah that'd be awesome thanks" I hopped off his lap to grab my sweater and jeans because I always stole Sodas t shirt and sweats when I slept over. I didn't bother changing because I was too comfortable but I did run my fingers through my hair and end up throwing it into a messy bun. I picked up my flipflops and headed out the door as soda downed his chocolate milk, grabbed his DX cap and followed me out. I waved to the boys and told them id be back later.

Soda and I walked in comfortable silence for a little while.

"So I waited to talk to you before I told them. Do you think we should?" Soda asked me snapping me out of a daze.

"What?" I said absent-mindedly.

"…That is if you still want to be my girlfriend." He said nervously.

"Oh oh yes Soda yes of course sorry I just was out of it." I said wrapping my arm around his waist. He smiled at me and repeated his statement more clearly.

"I haven't told the boys yet, not even Darry or Pony, I figured Id wait to talk to you."

"Oh yeah."

"So do you want to tell them?"

"Yeah I think we should don't you?"

"Yeah, but how?"

"Im not sure, itll be awkward at first and lots of teasing you know that, but I think well be better off if we tell them soon, before Dally does."

"Dally'll keep his mouth shut , but yeah I agree. So this afternoon?"

"Yep." I said my stomach full of butterflys. What would the boys think? Do they think im good enough for Sodapop?
