Chapter 11- Just Another Day- Jenny's POV
It had been a week since the whole incident with the socs has happened. And things were finally getting semi back to normal around here. We were all slowly trying to forget about the whole thing, but it was really hard for me since my cuts and bruises were not healing as quickly as I had hoped they would. They're just another painful reminder about what happened that horrible night. Hopefully things will fully be back to normal and running smoothly again soon.
Today is Thursday and Pony and I have been doing all of our chores and cleaning the house since the Sunday morning that we got I trouble for running away. But to be honest, I really don't mind it. Only because it gives Pony and I he change to be together. We are learning more about each other every day, and if it's possible I am falling in love with him more and more every day. Our sleeping arrangements have changed, Pony sleeps on the couch while I sleep in his bed. I tried to tell him that I could sleep on the couch, but he refused to let me, and insisted on me sleeping in his bed, so I finally gave in. Also, after much discussion, Pony and I decided it was best to just skip the last week of school. We really didn't want to have to deal with Jason and the other boys. Darry agreed with us, luckily. In two days it will officially be summer, and I couldn't be more excited for it to come. It's kind of like a new beginning for all of us.
I slowly opened my eyes to realize that it was morning. I looked over at the clock next to my bed and it read 6:15. Both Darry and Soda would be at work by now, I feel bad that they both always have to work so early, but that is just how things are. I yawned, then sat up in bed. I am a very early riser, and decided to get dressed and ready for the day.
I walked out into the living room to see Pony sound asleep on the couch. I then picked up the list of our chores for the day.
1. Do Laundry 2. Mop Floors 3. Wash Dishes
Hmm, not bad. It's actually the least amount of chores we have had to do all week. I put the list back down and walked over to where Pony was sleeping. I loved to watch him sleep. All of the sudden he opened his eyes.
" Jenny, what's wrong?" he asked sitting up.
" Nothing, I am sorry. I didn't mean to wake you. I just love to watch you sleep." I said shyly.
He smiled at me, " Don't worry, I love to watch you sleep too. And don't worry about waking me up. I'm glad you did, did Darry and Soda go to work already?" he asked.
" Yes, it's 6:30." I answered.
" Wow, you really are an early riser aren't you? Anyways, what are the chores for the day?" he asked.
" Umm, laundry, dishes, and mopping. Not too bad." I said.
" Yeah, hey listen. I know I've said this a million times, but I am really sorry that you have to do chores with me. You didn't really do anything wro-" Pony began to say before I cut him off.
" We've been through this Pony, I honestly don't mind. Besides I get to spend more time with you this way." I said to him.
" Yeah, that's true. If you insist." He said laughing.
" Well, I do insist, so go ahead and get dressed, and I will go make some breakfast." I suggested.
" Okay, that sounds good." he said as he gave me a quick kiss of the lips, he went into his room.
I started to prepare our food. I made 3 pieces of toast for Pony, and scrambled eggs. While I made myself one piece of toast.
Right when Pony came into the room, I was done making the food, and we both sat at the table to eat.
" Is that all you're going to eat?" Pony asked me.
" Yes, do you have a problem with that!?" I snapped at him. I hadn't meant to sound so mean, but it just sort of came out that way.
" No, not at all. I was just curious. Tell me what's wrong Jenny." Pony said.
" What makes you think something is wrong?" I asked him bitterly.
" Well, lately you have just been kind of jumpy, you seem nervous about everything. It's not really a bad thing. I just want you to feel safe here, and you just don't seem like you do." he said.
I felt pretty bad. " I know Pony. I'm sorry about being so snappy all the time. I don't mean to be. I guess I just get like that when I am worried." I said.
" What are you worried about?" he asked.
" Well, a lot of things. Partly because of the socs, I am worried that they aren't ever going to leave us alone. I am especially worried about my parents. I mean, they've never really been gone for this long, because of their work. I guess I just really miss them. I often worry when they aren't home. You never know what can happen." I said.
" Oh, I am sorry Jenny. I understand how you feel. I'm sure your parents are fine though. Try not to worry about them. You don't need any more added stresses to your life. And about the socs, you really don't need to worry about them. The gang will take care of them and make sure that they don't ever bother us again." he said reassuringly.
" I know. I will try to stop worrying so much." I said as I smiled at Pony.
"What?" he asked when I smiled at him.
" Oh, nothing really. Just that I have the best boyfriend in the world."
Ponyboy blushed. I loved how I could still do that to him so easily.
" Well, I don't know about being the best, but I am pretty damn close." he said sarcastically. I laughed, hen stood up and pulled Pony up with me. I leaned in and kissed him. Kissing Pony was like… indescribable. I just love him so much that it hurts. I don't know what I would do without him.
Finally he leaned away breathless. " We.. Should um… get started." he said.
" Hmm, so you would rather clean than kiss me?" I asked laughing.
" Well, of course not, I just figure that the faster we get our chores done the faster we get to be together for the rest of the day.
" Okay, you win." I said smiling at him. We quickly got started on our chores so that we could spend he whole rest of the day together without having to worry about anything.
It took us a little over an hour to finish doing all of our chores. Okay, so occasionally we would get distracted by each other, but we did eventually get them done. That's all that matters. Also, we got to spend the rest of the day, just enjoying each others company.. We haven't gotten to do that it a really long time, and it was really.. nice.
By the time 8:00 rolled around, everyone was home, even Steve and Twobit. So, we decided to play a few hands of poker, since there was really nothing better to do.
" Soda! You're such a cheater!" I yelled, while laughing at the same time.
" What? I am not! How dare you accuse me of cheating!" Soda declared.
" Yeah, right, Soda! We all know you always cheat!" Steve added in.
" Well, fine then! If you all feel that way, then fold!" Soda said trying to keep a serious face, but with Soda that was nearly impossible.
" I fold too." Pony said.
" Me too." Twobit added in.
" Me three!" Darry said dropping his cards.
"I'm out." Steve agreed.
" Ha, I win.. Again!" I said with satisfaction.
" Gee Pony. You better hold on to her, it's not everyday you find a girl that can beat us at poker!" Twobit said.
" Yeah, you better hold on to me!" I said turning to Pony.
" I was planning on it." he said leaning in to kiss me. Just then the telephone rang and Darry got up to answer it.
After just 20 seconds I knew it. There was something wrong. Darry was looking directly at me and he had tears in his eyes.
TBC?
