Chapter 3:
Pony POV:
It was Friday today, and Darry and Soda both had a date. I was happy that they were moving on, well sort of, and that I had the night to do anything I wanted, which involved going to a Tim Shepard party with Dally, Two-Bit, Steve and Johnny. I was still upset about what had happened on Monday and the fact that they hadn't even thought about making it up to me, but I couldn't hold a grudge like that for too long.
"Alright, you guys have fun tonight, but stay out of trouble. K?" Darry said as he and Soda were leaving.
"ya, alright." I told him.
Not long after they left the gang showed up and we headed off to the party. When we arrived I had one thing on my mind – Angela Shepard, I'd had a SECRET crush on her for a while, even though Johnny, and I think Dally, knew, Darry, Soda, Steve and Two-Bit didn't making it as much a secret as it could be.
I saw her over by the stereo and I could feel myself blush, I only hoped that no one noticed.
"I'm going to find Evie." Steve said.
"I'm going to go get drunker and find me some blondes." Two-Bit added. Just then Dally turned to me and said…
"why don't you go over there?"
"what? What are you talking about?" I asked trying to sound casual.
"come on, I know you like her, and I also know that she likes you. Go on, go over there and ask her to dance." He told me, when I didn't budge he pushed me. I gave him a death glare and he smirked as he walked of with Johnny.
"hey, great party." I told her.
"thanks, wanna dance?" she asked as a new song came on.
"sure." I told her, and she blushed. Was Dally right? Does she like me? I thought.
We danced for a while before going o get some drinks.
"I have to admit, that's the most fun I've ever had at a party." She said.
"me too." I told her.
"I don't know if you've ever figured it out or not, but I've had a pretty big crush on you for a while." She came clean.
"really?"
"yep" she said kinda shyly, which was pretty odd for Angela Shepard. I mean she's a pretty open person, but I guess you figured that out, I mean she did just come out and tell me that she's had a crush on me for a while.
"well, to tell you the truth I've had a crush on you for a while too." I told her.
"really? Why didn't you ask me out then?" she asked.
"well, for one thing I didn't know if I was your type, and two, I'm pretty sure that my brothers wouldn't be very happy about me dating you."
"oh." She said quite upset. Well look at it this way Pone, she likes you, you like her, and Darry and Soda are dating and you don't exactly like their girlfriends, so why not? You could go out when they do, and after a while when Angie and you get serious enough you can tell 'em. I thought.
"but since my first reason has been proved wrong, then how bout we go out to a movie or something on Sunday?" I asked. Her face brightened up right away and she said…
"sure….but what about your brothers?" she asked
"they're dating people I'm not really fond of, and I don't always do as they want me too. I mean I am here aren't I?" I told her.
"true" she smiled.
"hey kid, can I talk to you?" Steve asked from behind me.
"sure, one sec." I told Angie.
"what's up?" I asked him
"what the hell are you doing asking out Angela Shepard?!" Steve demanded.
"asking her out, duh." I told him.
"but Darry and Soda will DIE when they find out!"
"so, I don't like the people they're dating, so who says that they have to like the people that I date?" I asked innocently.
"maybe cause, they're your older brothers."
"why do you suddenly care for me?" I asked, teasing him.
"I don't, I care about Soda."
"well, then go find him and spy on him, make sure his GIRLFRIEND doesn't hurt him, cause I know what I'm doing, ok? I'm not going to hurt Soda or Darry." I finished and went to talk to Angie.
Dally POV:
"can you believe that kid?" Steve asked me as he and Evie approached me and Johnny.
"no, I mean I was just teasing him to ask her out, I didn't actually think he'd go through with it. He's got more guts than I thought." I said surprised, at the fact that Ponyboy not only danced with Angela Shepard but actually even asked out.
"hey, hey, hey! Johnnycakes, Dallas, Steve and Evie. How's everyone doing tonight?" Two-Bit asked obviously drunk again.
"fine, I guess." Steve said.
"I'm pretty shocked at the moment." I told him,
"why?"
"Ponyboy just officially asked Angela Shepard out on a date." Johnny filled him in.
"WHAT?!" he asked, obviously more shocked that any of us.
