Told You So!

This by far has got to be the longest chapter it took me to write. I gave a whole lot of effort into this chapter, I'm confused what I'm gonna write after it.

"I- I like...," I started before we were inturopped.

JOHNNY'S P.O.V.

Wonder whats taking them so long!

"Wonder wahts taking Ponyboy so long?" Steph asked, as if reading my mind.

"Probably having trouble carrying all of of the drinks back," I lied. I knew he went after Elektra, but its not like I was gonna tell his date that.

"Maybe I should go hel-" She started but I stoped her.

"No!" I yelled and she gave me a confused look, and I realized that I said it alittle too hastly. "I mean, no, Ele is out, she'll help him."

"But, okay," She changed her sentence.

"But, what were you gonna say," he asked quietly.

"Oh, nothing. Just that Elektra was heading to the bathroom not the consesion stand." This was one smart broad, or was it just common sense?

"I've known Ele, for a long time. When she says the restrooms she means the consestion stand. She does it when she wants to be alone."

"Then why did Pony follow her," she asked turning away from me and focasing all of ther attention onto the movie screen.

"Look," I said quietly so the people around us wouldn't start to get annoyed, "Ele and Pony have been friends and neighbors ever since she moved next door. They're just friends." This time I focased all of my attention onto the movie screen.

"Yeah," she spoke doubtfully, "But, I'm not stupid you know."

"So, whatcha sayin'?"

"She's hiding something." She was right too. She is hiding her feelings for Ponyboy from him. But, I can't tell Steph this, so I don't. I can't tell her that Pony feels for Elektra, that he only said 'yes' her out of doubt. So, I don't.

Elektra's P.O.V.

Great, I was just about to say something really important to Pony before I was inturopted by Steph.

"Ponyboy, the movie just ended. My parents want me back home soon," Steph lied, I think I'm the only one who noticed that the movie doesn't end for another 20 minuets.

"Okay," Pony said, as we started back towards, Stephine's house. Half way there a car pulled up.

"Hey guys," Dally said, "any of yah want a ride?"

"Um, no thanks," Steph said uneasly.

"Yeah Dal, I have to walk her back," Pony declined.

"I'll go," Johnny said.

"Ele, you commin'," Dally asked me.

"Nah, go ahead. After Stephine's dropped off I'll walk back with Pony. Socs could come on the way back and we shouldn't be alone."

"A' right, see yah," Dally said and spead off.

"Y'all friends with Dallas Winston," Steph asked with a conserned look.

"Yeah," I said.

"Isn't he dangerous though?"

"Yeah," Pony said, "he's got a tough rep, don't get me wrong he is tough. But, he'd leave you alone if he knew who you were."

"Yeah," I said, "he's a cool guy once you get to know him." I saw the worried look in her eyes. I hate myself for giving her a rough time tonight so I wanted to make it up to her. "Don't worry about it, Pony's older brother Darry is a tough guy, not even Dally wants to tengo with him, he'd handle it! I'm telling you, he won't give you any trouble unless you give him reason too and your best not to do it. Unless your me, who couldn't really give a shit and will bug him anyway."

"Okay," she said slightly eased.

"If he gives you any trouble let me know, I'll handle it," I told her.

"Okay... But, won't he hurt you?"

"No," Pony answered, "Ele knows how to fight, shes a tough dumb broad!" Pony said mockingly.

"Hahaha, very funny Pony," I laughed.

"Um, okay," Steph said confused. Remember time I indented Dally's nose when I first met him? After I hit him he called me a dumb broad, we've got along ever sinse.

We finally arrived at her house and I waited at the curb while Pony walked Steph to the door. "Bye Elektra, nice meeting you!"

"You too," I lied. When Pony was saying his goodbyes, right before Steph stepped into the house she gave him a kiss on the lips. I would've cussed her out, or cried on the spot, but crying isn't something I do very often. I was too confused to have any emotion what-so-ever.

I wonder if he liked it, I repeatally asked myself.

Then when we were half way to Pony's house a car pulled up, and this time it wasn't Dally. "Hey, greasers," someone called.

"Ready to run Ponyboy?"

"I always am!"

"One," I counted.

"Two," he continued.

"Three," we counted together.

We ran as fast as we could to my house, and heard bear bottles smashing behind us. We ran to my house and I unlocked the door and ran inside. While I locked it, Pony checked the windows. "Coast is clear," he said.

We were both breathing heavy, and his hair was messed up from running, the same with my shirt.

"So, she kissed you."

"Yeah, she did."

It was silent untill we hear slamming on the door. "Ponyboy Micheal Curtis," Darry yelled. I opened the door to let him in.

"What did I do?"

"You don't ever think do you! Socs pass the house, your not home and... what do you two think you're doing!" We're breathing heavy from running, his hear is messed up, my shirt is, too. This doesn't look so good does it?

"Oh, Darry," I started, "it's not what you think! We weren't doing anything!"

"Well, what am I supposed to think? Pony's hear is a mess, your shirt is... and your both breathing heavy! Shoot, just this morning you were telling me you liked Ponyboy, too. It doesn't look like nothing!"

Atleast now I wasn't the one who had to tell Ponyboy! I looked over in his direction, "Pony.."

"Darry," Pony asked, "can I have 5 minuets alone with Elektra?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know..." Darry started before I inturroped him.

"Yeah, I would have really spent my day watching his date if he fuckin' knew!" I screamed.

"Pony, 5 minuets," Darry told him and walk back to his house.

"So, now you know," I told Ponyboy.

"Elektra, I really like you, I really do, but, it's just that..."

"That you like Stephine, and I'm just the girl next door."

"I don't know if I like her, I know I like you. Things are just so confusing! I didn't give Steph a chance, you didn't either... She's a nice girl and she really likes me."

"I do, too," I started crying and sat on the couch. Pony walked over to the couch and sat next to me, held my hand trying to comforte me.

"I know, I really like you, but I should Steph a chance. I'm not sure if I should ruin our friendship."

"You not. Give her a chance..." I lied, about giving her a chance, I would never let anything become between our friendship. "You should get going."

"Okay," he whispered. As he got up and started to head for the door. I couldn't hold it in any longer, for if there was a chance for us, for if there wasn't, I'm not even sure. Maybe it was for myself, what I gained enough courage to do.

"Ponboy," I yelled jumping up from the couch. He stopped at the door and turned to me, I walked over to him and gave him all the emotions that I've been holding in for so long. I pushed him up against the door and flat out kissed him, hard, with passion and force. It seemed to last forever, like time was going slower then it really was. Then I pulled away, though I didn't want to.

"Darry's gonna be worried," I told him looking him in the eyes.

"See yah tommorow?"

"Yeah, tommorow."

Hey! I updated! So, please R&R. I'm not sure how I'm gonna get the original plot idea into the story, but, I'm gonna work on it.
