Holly's POV
"Yeah, and I should have never left the circus." Two-Bit said, trying to lighten the mood. I looked at the ground, as we made our way into the building. The rest of the day came and went as usual. I sat in Geography with a friend of mine named Kali. Kali was Two-Bit's little sister, and was around my age, but the gang and I never saw much of her outside of school. She was my only gal-pal, and couldn't be summed up in one word. She was crazy-cool, and the best gal-pal you could ask for. She wasn't a priss, but would do girly things with me when we were sick of being around guys. All through the day, I was either stuck with Kali or the gang, afraid of running into Luke again. Unfortunately, I had to walk home alone, because Pony was staying for a track meet, Steve was going to work, and Two-Bit had detention. I decided to sleep over at Kali's place, because I was afraid of bumping into Dally and having a repeat of last night. I wasn't all that mad at him, really. It was just kinda weird to see your brother come through the door clutching a third-class whore.
Kali and took the long road back so I could inform her of the events of this morning. She doesn't walk to school with us, because she doesn't like to get up early, and Two-Bit is at the Curtis house bright and early.
"Glory... what a creep." she said, shivering. She knew about what had happened between Luke and I because Two-Bit had told her about it.
"I know. I need to get away from guys for a while." I said. "The new Seventeen's out, wanna get it?" I said. She nodded, and we went into the grocery store to buy magazines, and all the candy we could eat. We passed the DX, and went in for a few minutes to talk to Soda and Steve.
"Hello kids." Steve said. I rolled my eyes.
"Dally told me to tell you he wouldn't be home 'till late, so if you want, you can stay at my place." Soda said. He was such a sweetie .
"That's okay. If you see him, could you tell him I'm staying at Kali and Two-Bit's?"
"Yeah, no sweat." he said. I smiled.
"Bye guys!" I said, waving, and walknig out with Kali.
"Oh my god, he's so cute!" she squeaked. I giggled.
"I know." I said.
"I kinda thought that you had a thing for Pony." I stopped. Me? Pony? I thought.
"Yeah, he's real nice and all... let's face it, he don't like girls like me." I said thoughtfully.
"I dunno, I just might have heard from Two-Bit, who heard from Steve, who heard from Soda that he has a thing for you!" she shrieked, leading me through her door and up to her room.
"No..."
"Yeah!"
"No..."
"Yeah!"
"You know what we sound like right now?" I asked, trying to get off topic."
"A couple of shrieking Socs?" she replied.
"Yeah." I said, laughing. We sat on her bed, and listened to Elvis, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones, while we stuffed our faces with junk food and pizza, and gossiped about every Soc at school. Everything from Sandy and Sodapop, to Ringo Starrs new haircut. It was really only the Greaser guys who didn't like The Beatles. We liked them just fine. Before I knew it, we were passed out on the floor.
Sorry it's so short! I'm kinda tied up with homework right now!
