Chapter 12
Erica's POV
I was quiet the whole way to the dingo. Of course the whole gang had to come to spy on me!
"Miss America you are being awfully quiet" Sodapop said gaining everyone's attention. We were now sitting at our booth at the Dingo getting ready to order. I just shrugged my shoulder in response not wanting to talk to any of them.
"Aw man PMS is starting early here" Dally smirked which caused Steve to choke on his Pepsi with laughter and earned at chuckle out of Two-Bit while my brothers just glared at him.
"Not funny Dallas!" Darry responded. Ponyboy's cheeks were flaming red by now. Darry turned to me then "Erica eat you chicken fingers…now" he gave me a stern look I hadn't really eaten anything since I was so mad at them but with that one look from Darry I knew I better. So I started eating one slowly to settle down Darry.
"So…. Miss. America did you have fun at Ben's house?" Darry asked I just nodded and he left it at that but the other boys didn't. I got questions from everyone "Where you in his room?" "What did you two play?" "What did you eat?" "Did he touch you?" they were asking all these questions and I couldn't understand why I was so confused. Eventually Darry noticed "ENOUGH" he said "leave her be you are scaring and confusing her stop it!" It was then I felt Darry put me on his lap protectively and brushed off the little tear on my cheek I hadn't even noticed was there. The rest of the evening went by like normal the boys went back to talking about whatever it is they talk about and I stayed close to Darry.
The next few weeks went by as normal it was now April which I was happy because that means summer is getting closer! Ben and I are going to spend the whole summer together playing I am so excited! It is Thursday night and I have something that's been on my mind. I walk down to the living room where everyone was. I walked over and sat next to Ponyboy on the floor I figured I'd ask him since he was the smartest.
"Pony?"
"Yes.."
"You are really smart right?"
"Are you kidding? Our own Little Pony here is as smart as Eintien Little Lady" Two-Bit interrupted I giggled at that.
"Well can I ask you a question then?"
"Yeah sure"
"What's a gina (Pronounced like va-GINA)?" Dally spit his beer at when I said that word I think everyone's eyes bugged out while Pony and Johnny were as red as a tomato!
"Maybe I said it wrong I think it starts with a v va-"Pony clamped his hand over my mouth
"Erica where did you hear that word!" Darry was now standing from his chair looking angry I just want to know what the word means!
"I heard it at school. Patty came in talking about how she heard her brother talking about one but no one knows what it is!" I explained. Sodapop picked me up of the floor
"Listen Erica that is a grown up word that you shouldn't say understand?" I nodded but I still wanted to know!
"Erica that word is a name for something that you will learn about in health class when you are older ok?" Soda tried to suppress me asking more…it didn't work
"But if you know what it is why can't you tell me now?"
"Erica that's enough I don't want to hear any more about that word. It inappropriate to ask people" Darry told me with his stern face.
"Fine" I humph and wiggled out of soda's arms to watch Mickey which was on the TV.
…
After the whole me saying the bad grown-up word disaster the gang was being really weird around me like they didn't want to say something in my presence. I'm suppose to be sleeping right now but I just can't tomorrow I'm going to the Tulsa fair with Ben and Kimmy and I am so excited I can't sleep I really wanted to go but Darry said he had to work in the morning and no one else wanted to take me so when Mrs. Jennings told Darry that Kimmy was taking Ben and I could go I was super excited!
I sneak out of bed I can still hear the whole gang here and I want to play detective since I cannot sleep.
"Man lucky Erica she gets to spend all day with that hottie" I think Steve said but than I heard a slap "Ow"
"Dummy she's a little girl she probably just happy about getting cotton candy or something" I wonder who the hottie was?
"Yeah maybe we should tag along and ya know help her babysit the kids" I think soda said someone else went to reply but I couldn't hear since a hand went over my mouth and I got picked up I started trying to wiggle free. Who has me? Finally we got to my room and the person put me down I turned around to face Ponyboy!
"Hey what was that for?" I asked
"What are you doing out of bed and spying" ok he got me
"I-I-I.."
"Yeah that's what I thought" he smirked "Look I won't tell the guys just get back into to bed ok?" I nodded and Pony tucked me back in before leaving. All I could think before drifting off to sleep was tomorrow will be very interesting.
Please Review!
