TOUGH TIMES
A/N: Ok sorry bout the late updates but Fan fiction wouldn't let me update!!! Enjoy this chappie!!!!
Two-Bit
When I woke up next, Two-Bit had gone and the house was silent, so Candy must have gone too. When I looked at the clock, it was one. I cursed and then remembered lying next to Two-Bit. I wasn't sure how I felt about him, I mean he was a great friend, but anymore than that, I'm not too sure. I groaned as I slowly got out of bed. Never again was I going to one of Buck's Parties! I then realised a note on the bedside,
We got some clothes for you, and your work clothes! Hope it helps! Candy
I smiled, as I realised a pile of clothes next to the bed. It helps so much that they wouldn't even know! I had a nice, long warm shower and once I was out it was about two. Still two more hours until I had to be at work. So I went to the DX. I didn't really know Soda and Steve that well, but I beat you they would be better company than a desk.
"Soda? Steve?" I called out uncertainly.
"At your service! Hey it's you" Steve said, looking me up and down. I laughed,
"Don't sound so surprised! I was bored so I decided to come down here."
"What about school?"
"Oh. I had a HUGE hangover when I woke up this morning so I decided to skip."
"Want some help with those cars?" I asked, pointing at the mustang that him and Soda were fixing. Steve shrugged, probably thought I knew nothing about cars. I opened the trunk and whistled,
"Have they burnt out the piston rings or what?"
"Yeah. Wants them replaced. I am so tempted to bash in the windscreen" Steve replied as I laughed. I then realised that he was out of school too,
"Why aren't you at school?" I asked, curiously. Steve shrugged,
"It's busy and Soda needed help."
"I did not! I never need help!" I snorted and then started whistling innocently.
"I'm going to go grab some milkshakes, want some?"
"Well if you're paying for them, I'll have a chocolate one" Soda replied from under the car,
"Me too" I smiled,
"Be right back" I replied, as I crossed the road over to the diner. I grabbed three milkshakes, and headed back to the DX.
"Here ya go. That'll be one dollar!" I grinned as I looked at their shocked faces. "Just kidding! It was my treat!" Soda and Steve sighed in relief and started drinking their milkshakes.
"This is so much nicer tasting than beer! And way better affect afterwards. Instead of the vomiting everywhere, I'm bouncing everywhere! Well for me anyway! Gets me really hyper!"
"Really? Same here!" Soda replied, laughing. I hopped off the counter,
"I had better start heading back to Two-Bit's place. See you guys later" I saluted them and then started on the five-minute walk back. When I arrived back, Two-Bit was already there, but Candy wasn't.
"Hey. You skip last period?"
"You know me too well!" He grinned, but then looked kind of awkward, "You know about last night, I'm sorry for yelling and stuff. I was just kind of upset" I nodded,
"I know. And just so's you know, when I asked you to sleep in the bed next to me it was just as friends" Two-Bit looked so relieved,
"Well I'm glad that's settled then! Want to grab something to eat?" I shook my head,
"Nah sorry, I have to start getting ready for work and then I just want to rest until I have to go."
"That's cool. Well I'm going to go find myself some trouble. Have fun at work" I laughed,
"Will do! With the bitch of a supervisor I'll have a splendid time! You have fun too!"
"Always!" Two-Bit replied as he walked away. Two-Bit was really a great guy, but only as a friend. Ponyboy was the only guy I wanted, and yet he hated me right now. I sighed,
"Oh the complexities of life!" (A/N: I didn't even know complexities was a word!! Hahahahaha) I smiled to myself, well at least I've still got Candy and Two-Bit to be there for me when everything stuffs up again. I went inside and changed into my work clothes.
Right at the moment that I sat on Candy's bed, I concluded NEVER to wear the clothes I wore yesterday. 1) Because they smell of vomit and 2) It wasn't me. I am only going to be myself from now on and even though Ponyboy doesn't want me, some other guy will. I smiled at myself,
"Things are starting to look up for you, Celestial" I said, lying down on Candy's bed.
"Celestial! Wake up! You have to go to work!" I groaned, and looked at the clock. It was 3:45.
"Thanks Candy!" I said gratefully as I raced out the door. It took me ten minutes to walk to work, but I still wanted to get there early because that boss was a bitch and I needed to show him that I am good and I CAN make it to work on time! When I arrived at work at 3:55 I could see it was going to be a long night.
A/N: Sorry it's a bit shorter but hey!!! Please R&R!!!!
