Chapter 4:
Pony POV:
It was Friday afternoon and I was just getting ready for my date with Angie. Johnny was helping me pick out what to wear and what to say and where to take her, while the others were ushering Soda and Darry out of the house and on their dates before I had to leave. I was hoping that they weren't being too odd about it, cause then Darry might get suspicious and stay and then I'd have to cancel. And that was one thing I didn't want to do.
Johnny went to check if Soda and Darry had left yet, seeing as if I wanted to be time then I'd have leave in 5 minutes.
"they're gone" he said as he poked his head in. I walked out and received a good share of woo hoos from Two-Bit, which made me blush.
"alright, be careful on your date, Angela Shepard isn't as innocent as she seems." Dally informed me as I walked out the door.
"ya, ya, see y'all later." I yelled back.
Angie and I went to a movie, but it wasn't very good so we walked to the Dingo and then decided to head to the Park.
"so, I hear the star on track team. You're the reason our school has a good chance of winning this year." Angie informed me of the gossips at school.
"ya, well I don't like to brag but I guess it's true." I said in a joking matter, as she laughed. She had a great laugh, she was one of the only girls in the school that could pull off any look. She has long hair, but once someone cut her hair and she looked great even then.
"Ponyboy, aren't those your brothers coming towards us?" She asked quickly and I could tell the nervousness in her voice.
"Shit" was all I could say, as Darry and Soda got closer to me and Angie looking quite angry with their girlfriends following behind.
"follow my lead." I told her, knowing neither of us wanted Darry, Soda, Tim or Curly to know we were going out.
"Ponyboy, what's going on here?" Soda asked when they reached us.
"nothing" I said casually.
"doesn't look like it to me, in fact, it looks like a date." Darry said.
"it's not." I lied. " Johnny and I went to a movie and he got bored so he left and then after the movie I went to the dingo and ran into Angie. We have a project in English and she told me that she wasn't going to be able to finish her half so we were just talking about how much she's done so I could finish it for her."
"oh" Soda said, looking quite embarrassed.
"is that true?" Darry asked Angie and she nodded.
"so if I call Johnny he'll say the same thing?" Darry wasn't buying my story, and it was making me nervous because I hadn't thought about talking to Johnny about that before, I had just made that up on the spot.
"yep, I'm not lying, Dar. Why don't you just go back to your dates? I don't want you to spoil your nights for nothing." I told them.
"mmhmm." Darry said, not too convinced, but walked away.
"phew, that was a close one. Where did you learn to lie like that?" Angie said
"I don't know."
"well, what now?"
"now, we go and find a phone to call my house with so that I can let Johnny in on the scheme." I told her.
"what if he's not willing to vouch for us?"
"he will be." I told her.
We found a payphone and I called Johnny, letting him in on the lie I had told Darry and Soda not too long before that. After that was done we walked around town a little longer, before I dropped her off at her house.
"looks like we're safe, Tim and Curly aren't home from their party yet." She said. " I had a great time tonight."
"me too."
"I guess I'll see ya at school tomorrow." She said, as tension grew between us.
"ya, I guess you will." I said. We stood there for what seemed like forever before I leaned in and kissed, before realizing how late it was and that I better leave.
"bye" she told me as she walked into the house.
"bye"
