Chapter 3

The Ribbon

Kenicke's POV

I had the ribbon with me until lunch. I was hanging outside with the rest of the T-Birds, man are they knuckleheads, besides Danny of course. Danny's my best friend, which is why I, Kenicke, and guilty. I can't get Nicole out of my mind. I was playing with the ribbon in my hand when Sonny took it from me, "What's this Kenicke? Like to play dress up when we're not around?"

"Give me that!" I said, grabbing it from his hands and putting it back into my pocket, but Danny had seen.

"Ain't that Nick's ribbon?" he asked, taking the ribbon out of my pocket and examining it.

"I thought so but I wasn't sure, I'll give it to her after English." I said casually, taking the ribbon back and putting it back in my pocket. I took out a comb and ran it through my hair.

"Man I'm worried about her, all the Pink Ladies get eaten up by those guys, do you think I should look out for her?" Danny asked me.

"Nah man, I got it covered, don't worry, nobody'll be messing with her." I replied. Not if I can help it.

Danny's POV

Man, I wonder why Kenicke kept that damn hair ribbon, I would've thought he would've just tossed it aside, oh well.

I waited for Kenicke outside of gym class, "You give her the ribbon?" I asked. Kenicke nodded, "Yeah, she was grateful." He said.

I chuckled at that, "It's her favorite ribbon." I said, then because I felt so girly saying ribbon a lot, I took out a cigarette and lit it, "Did you see any new meat?" I asked him, leaning against the mats in the gym.

Kenicke nodded, "I saw this chick in registration." He moaned and smirked. He leaned back on the mats and looked sideways at me.

"Were her jugs bigger then Annette's?" I asked curiously, standing up straight and blowing out smoke.

"Nobody's jugs are bigger then Annette's buddy." Kenicke replied, and we both had a good laugh before we headed home. I saw Nicole climbing into Rizzo's car, in the front seat this time, and wave at me. I smiled and waved back at her, then I knocked the ashes off the end of my cigarette.

"Hey Danny, let's go… we're heading to Burger Palace buddy." Putzie said from the back seat, I jumped over the door into the front seat and beeped the horn from where I was sitting. Kenicke revved the motor and blasted out of the parking lot, all of us were whooping and hollering.

Nicole's POV

I wonder why Kenicke kept my ribbon for so long, I mean he must've known it was mine, he gave it to me years ago. Maybe he forgot, I told myself.

"Zuk?" Rizzo was saying, I snapped out of my trance and looked in the rearview mirror to Frenchy for help, she nodded.

"Yeah, definitely." I said smiling. Rizzo looked satisfied and turned up the radio. Phew. I looked at Frenchy gratefully and hummed along with the tune of some Elvis song, I never remember the names, just the words.

"I love this song…" Marty was saying, she snapped her fingers and Frenchy, her and Jane, moved from side to side with the music. I laughed and turned around to face the road, we were at my house.

"See you later girls." I said, opening the door before it came to a stop, I was about to close it when Riz said.

"Hey Zuk, I'm havin' a sleepover tonight at my house, you want to come." Frenchy was nodding vigorously from the backseat.

"Sure, Danny'll drive me over later." I said smiling. Rizzo smiled approvingly and I slammed the door, seconds before it peeled out of the driveway and down the street.
