*Evie's Pov*
I ran through my house trying to find my pair of black heels. Steve was going to pick me up in fifteen minutes and I wasn't even ready yet. "Brenda!" I yelled as my eight year old little sister ran right in front of me, "Stay out of my way."
"Evie, some guy is at the door, asking for you," Brenda informed me. Steve. It was probably Steve.
"Brenda, get the door, let him in, and tell him that I'll be down in ten minutes." Brenda ran down the hall and then I heard her open the door. With that, I heard Steve's familiar voice.
I smiled. Lately hearing Steve's voice made me smile, yet I couldn't love him. No matter how hard I tried I just couldn't love him. Not yet anyway. We were starting to grow closer but we had only been together for two weeks without fighting at all.
"Evie! Hurry up!" It was Brenda. I'm hurryin, I'm hurryin. I thought to myself before opening my closet and pulling out a pair of tight blue jeans and a short fuzzy pink sweater. Then I put on pink eye shadow and blush with one hand, while putting my hair back with a headband.
I backed up and looked at myself in the mirror after I finally found my black heels, lying underneath the whole pile of clothes in my closet. Then I ran my hands over my hips, my hips that looked huge in these pants. I ran my hands over my legs too which looked huge in these pants. Gosh, I was fat, I thought to myself. Some days I just needed an extra boost of confidence yet on other days I loved my body and I knew I looked good. It was really weird.
"Hey, Stevie." I walked out of the hall only to see Steve getting very pissed at my little sister, who was irritating and interrogating the hell out of him with lots of questions.
"Hey baby," He greeted me. I sighed happily as he stood up off the couch and hugged me sweetly. He had been acting very different lately, more sweet, and also some days he was a lot happier then usual.
Although I did notice that when ever the subject of Christmas came up he would get all quiet and act very uncomfortable. I don't know whether it was because he didn't have any family to celebrate with or because he didn't have enough money to buy me anything.
"Steve, honey. What's up?" I wondered to him and smiled.
"Nothing sweetie. Let's go to the Dingo." He pulled me by my arm and out the door, shutting it behind me.
"What's the rush? Your fifteen minutes early anyway!" I practically screamed as Steve pushed me into the Curtis's old Ford Truck that he must have borrowed from them. "Nothing," he replied, "I just want to be with you." I felt myself blush slightly.
That surprised me. I wasn't the kind of girl to blush; I mean I wasn't sweet and innocent so I didn't try to act like it. My old best friend, Sandy, had always tried to act like she was sweet and innocent eventhough she wasn't. But the only thing that that got her was a one way ticket to Florida and boyfriend with a broken heart. I saw Sodapop Curtis, her ex-boyfriend, after she left and he did have a broken heart, he was torn up inside. All he did for days was mope around Tulsa, meaninglessly.
"Don't say stuff like that, please Steve." I begged him, because I wasn't really sure about my feelings toward him. He put his hand on my leg and just nodded his head.
"Thanks hon. Mmmm," I made a small approving sound in my throat. "This is nice, just sitting here with you, but why aren't we going to the Dingo?"
"Ok, then." He started the truck up. "We're going." When we arrived at the Dingo it was packed, with tons of greasers and may be one or two Socs looking to start fights. They, Socs, did that all the time. They were always looking for a fight, eventhough all it did was piss us, greasers, off. Besides any greaser can beat the hell out of any Soc. And usually did too. Then it was funny.
"So, where's the rest of the gang at tonight?" I asked Steve.
He shrugged. "Probably around, just waiting to ruin our lovely burgers and fries that we ordered." He sounded angry, and it sounded that he was angry because all he could afford to order for us was burgers and fries. I laughed at Steve's thought about the gang waiting to ruin our 'dates', although it was probably the truth. They always ruined them somehow or another. And if on cue, out popped Two-Bit from the booth behind us.
"Hey, Two-Bit." I smiled flirtatiously. I always liked to tease Two-Bit because he knew that he couldn't have me. I was taken and by one of his best friends at that.
"Good evein' Evie," he said, mispronouncing evenin' purposely. I rolled my eyes, because he always did that around me. Probably to make fun of my name. I didn't blame him though, who names their kid Evie? What a stupid name.
"So you got room for one more?" Two-Bit asked hopeful. "I'm here all by my lonesome."
"No, Two-Bit. You can't come on our date with us," Steve growled. I just laughed and scooted over so Two-Bit could sit next to me. "Evie, Evie, Evie," Steve shook head disapprovingly with a laugh. "You're too nice. And Two-Bit," he shot a death glare at Two-Bit. "you better not come to the movies with us."
"I won't," Two-Bit sulked and stuck his bottom lip out to pout. "I know when I'm not wanted."
"Good, then leave." I heard Steve mutter under his breath, and I kicked him with my foot underneath the table.
"Look Two-Bit, we know you want to hang out with us, but I really need to talk to Steve. It's important, so could you please fo?" I smiled as genuinely as I could at Two-Bit and then brushed his arm with my hand.
"Ok, guys. I guess bye and Steve, good luck on the talk with little miss Evie," he said and stood up, hitting Steve on the shoulder. Steve looked nervous though; I guess cause I wanted to talk to him and usually that meant breaking up.
"Evie, I don't know what I did this time. Whatever it was I'm really sorry." Steve stopped to think for a minute and then continued. "But if this is about what I did at Buck's party with that Cassandra girl, I'm really sorry." He hesitated. " I didn't mean too. You know I was drunk and so was she. It was just innocent flirting. I'm not like Dally used to be." He grew quiet. He always grew quiet when one of us mentioned Dally or Johnny.
I missed them both too. "I don't grope every girl I see." Steve finished quietly. "But please, what ever I did I'm sorry! We can work this out. I know we can."
I gave him a strange look, a little taken back. "Steve, what are you talking about?"
"You're breaking up with me, aren't you?" He wondered.
"No." I laughed. "Why would I be breaking up with you? Although I'm starting to think that I have a reason. And I will have a reason if you don't tell me what when on at Buck's party." I smirked at Steve. "I just told Two-Bit that I needed to talk to you so he would leave us alone."
"Ok," Steve stammered. He seemed a little embarrassed for thinking that I was going to break up with him. "I guess I'm rubbing off on you, huh?" he asked. I just rolled my eyes as if to say 'yeah, sure.'
Speaking of talking to him though, I did need to talk to him about Christmas.
