Told You So!
Hello to all of you wonderful fans who stick to this fanfic even though I have a habbit of only updating it once a month! lol. It took me so long to write this. I'm not quite sure what I'm gonna do next so feel free to give suggestions! R&R ---please! ----see for once in my life I used manners! So, you've got too! lol.
As soon as Ponyboy left I was totally confused. There was so many emotions that were burried inside of me that I didn't know what to think about first. I should have listend to Sandy, Pony just amitted that he liked me but, it's still my fault why he's not with me. I should have asked him out when I had the chance. I was worried whether or not Darry or even Ponyboy would treat me the same after tonight. But, mostly I just wanted to kick myself in the ass.
The next day I woke up after getting up and down all night. Lets just say I didn't have the best sleep. I walked outsider to a nice day which I'd usually would have taken advantage of but, today I really needed someone to talk to about all that happend the night earlyer. So, I walked to the DX hoping that Sandy might be there.
"Hey, Sodapop, Steve," I said in a fake cheerful voice and a fake cheerful smile, hoping that they wouldn't say anything if they even knew at all of what happend the previous night.
"Hey," both of them replied back. Soda waited for Steve to leave before he said, "So, Ponyboy told me what happend last night..."
"Does he hate me now," I asked.
"No, he doesn't hate you. Look, I'm sure that you must be really confused and whatever about everything but, he is just as confussed, too," Soda replied handing me a pepsi. I was happy because he wasn't judging me like I was worrying the whole gang was going to do.
"What does he have to be confused about? Obviously, he had to choose between me and Steph and he chose her," I said looking down at my feet.
"He likes you Elektra. But, he kindof likes her, too."
"And it looks like he made his choise." Just then Sandy walked into the DX.
"Hey, can I talk to you Elle," she asked. Something must be wrong, I thought reading the ancious
look upon her face.
"Sure," I replied, "is something wrong? You look stressed."
"Nothings wrong," she lied but, I was already stressed enough and I didn't want to find out something which would add more to my tolerance level, which was running very low at the momment. "So, tell me what happend last night. Soda wouldn't tell me."
So, I told her everything about last night down to every last detail. Not to mention that I felt like a horrible date and friend to Johnny. I regret being such an ass to him the other night. I said my goodbyes to everyone and then walked over to the Curtis house.
When I stepped onto the porch of the house I heard giggling coming from inside. When I stepped through the door I saw Steph sitting on Ponyboy's lap.
"Hey, Elle," she said cheerfully, but then again what else is new? "Want some lunch? I just made it so its still warm." I was bout to decline her offer but then my stomache growledso I said, 'yes.' "Here," she said putting a load of lassonia onto my plate, "try it. It's my family's recipe."
I took a bite and unsupprisingly since she seems to be good at everything it was really good. Family recipe my ass, this has got to be out of a cook book somewhere! "This is great," I told her. She seemed satisfied with my responceand left the room followed by Pony. Johnny took a seat next to mine. "I'm guessing you heard," I asked. He nodded. "Look, Johnny, I'm really sorry for being such a bitch yesterday," I appologized.
"It's okay, Ele. I understand," he replied which made me feel better. When I finished my family recipe lunch we walked into the living room and sat down next to eachother on the couch.
Just then Two-Bit walked in. "Hey ya'll! Think you guys would come to a party today?" Then we all nodded.
"Tuff enough. But, just to let you know its gonna be pritty filled up, with couples I mean. So, if you don't have someone to go with," he said looking over to me and Johnny, "you should find someone..." I intrupted him and looked over to Ponyboy, trying to make sure he was looking.
"Which means I don't have to worry! Right Johnny, baby," I said overreacting baby and kissed his cheek. I was hoping he would follow along.
"Uh... sure," he said quietly after I knugged him. I looked over at Pony, his face was drained of all color as I wrapped Johnny's arm around my shoulder. He kissed Steph's hand as if trying to do the same thing I did to him. We're both such hypocrites.
"Hey, whats everybody up to," Dally walked in with Sylvia hanging onto him.
"Nice lipstick Dall," I complimented.
"Hey, watch it," he said pointing at me. There was lipstick marks all over his face where Sylvia must have kissed him.
"Yeah," Sylvia added, "looks good on you, too."
"No," Two-Bit added in, "Dallas I'm sorry but reds just ain't your color. You're more of a peach..."
"So, what time is the party," Steph asked.
"Ummm... Around 6:05. But, we should arrive around 6:00 before all the good spots are taken," Two-Bit replied.
"Well, I'll be off now. I need to get ready," Steph continued, "I wonder what I'm gonna wear... Ele, what are you going to wear?"
"I don't know," I replied honestly, "I haven't really thought about it. I don't have anything fancy to wear anyways."
"Well, comeover to my place with me! I'm sure I can find something to wear," she asked.
"Alright, see you guys latter," I said to no one in paticular.
On the walk to Steph's house it was really quiet until I broke the silence. "So, are you happy with Ponyboy?" If we have to talk about something it might as well be something we're both interested in!
"Yeah," she replied, "I am. I really wanted to ask you about something. Do you like Ponyboy? Because, I'm not stupid you know. His mind is always on other things. And when you're with Johnny... I don't know. You just don't seem so interested," she said as we walked into her house.
"Truthfully," I asked, she nodded. "I used to. But, I don't know. It just didn't work out." But, I was lying about one thing, I still do like Ponyboy.
"Did he know?"
"Yeah," I said as she gave me some clothes to try on.
"You can try them on in the bathroom," she said.
"Thanks," I replied. I put the clothes on and saw what she gave me. I was wearing a white tang top and a black skirt which went a few inches above my knee. The guys are never gonna let me live this down, I thought to myself.
"Ready yet? Your taking forever," Steph asked me.
"Yeah," I said walking out of the bathroom.
"You look great," Steph said, "doesn't she you guys!" I was confused who she was asking that to until I noticed Pony and Johnny in the hallway.
"Picking you both up," Pony answered.
"Doesn't she," Steph asked again.
Johnny and Ponyboy were both wide eyed. They've never seen me in a skirt before. "Yeah," Pony replied, which made me blush or atleast I think I was. Johnny nodded.
As we walked out to the car I got the same wide eyed expression from Two-Bit, Dally, Soda, and Steve. Sandy, Evie, and Sylvia was standing with them. Two-Bit however, was alone.
"Wheres your date Two-Bit," I asked, "and can you people stop looking lie you've never seen a girl in a skirt before, my god," I yelled in annoyence.
Two-Bit gave a proud grin and said, "I'm fresh on the market. I'm trying to see how many girls..."
"You mean blonds," I inturroped.
"Yeah, I'm trying to see how many blondes I can pick up in one night," he continued.
"Really? I heard there was a new blonde from Texas. You interrested?" I lied. I thought it would be funny to see him running around all night trying to find this blonde, who doesn't exsist.
"Definatly," he replied with excitement. Then we all jumped into his car and sped off to Buck's.
Sandy whispered into my ear, "there is no blonde from Texas is there, Elektric?"
"Nope," I replied only loud enough so that only she could hear. This is going to be quite a night, I thought to myself.
