AN: I don't own Grease. Thanks you toomanyfandoms4you for your lovely review. Rizzo and Kenickie were always my favourite couple, Sandy and Danny were boring. I fixed the paragraph thing up in this chapter. Enjoy!
SANDY'S POV-
"This one looks so sexy," announced Frenchy as she showed us a little leather skirt, it was Rizzo's as we were helping her get changed. "Gimme that!" Cried Rizzo as she snatched the skirt, "Riz I thought you liked leather" commented Frenchy "Well French geez I'm a grown woman, twenty years old don't I deserve some privacy?" cried Rizzo as she stuffed the skirt into one of the drawers in her closet. "Riz, Riz, Riz if we don't mock you who will?" replied Frenchy. "Well Kenickie does it all the time, really I think he just does it because he finds me sexy when I smash him over the head with a pillow!" She replied "Oh yeah that sounds like a really appealing sight" I replied really sarcastically, I still don't see what Kenickie sees that makes Rizzo look like the Miranda Kerr of Los Angeles, but really I think Orlando Bloom is a lot better looking then Kenickie. Okay I'm going off track now, Rizzo was finally dressed in a pair of little black shorts and a little tiny red shirt, Geez some people have no shame I'd never, ever dress like her, Rizzo then put on some red stiletto heels and smiled. "Girls can some one pass me that stuff on the bedside?" Asked Rizzo as she pointed to a little pile of her personal belongings on the top of the bedside cabinet. I strolled over and grabbed a Rimmel London lipstick, an iPhone 5S (Gee how can a bar waitress afford the new iPhone, really it costs around $780?) and a pack of cigarettes (Smoking Kills hasn't she seen the ads and the packets, lung cancer, wrinkles, the works. She has to quit especially if she ever becomes a mummy). Really it has nothing to do with me so I just passed her the objects and she threw them into her black clutch (the one she was holding on my first day at Rydell High School). Then she and Frenchy laughed about something and headed down the stairs. Sometimes I don't understand those girls' American teenagers are highly different from Australian ones, especially the private scholars (exhibit A: Me). I quickly followed the girls down the stairs and headed into the living/dining area. Rizzo was busy talking to Kenickie, she had her arm around him and he had his arm around her. Frenchy was standing on the other side of the room talking on her mobile phone, a really annoyed look on her face. I heard her yell "I SAID I AM WITH TELSTRA I DON'T NEED A TRANSFER," I could tell it was someone trying to sell her something. Soon enough she got off the phone and tossed it into her tote bag and strolled back over to us "Guys you won't believe it, an Indian telemarketer was trying to make me transfer my mobile phone plan to some generic company I've never heard of, AGAIN. Really where do they get my number from?" Said Frenchy. "French I once had some guy trying to sell me artwork, he came to my door front door, the worst thing was that the art was absolute JUNK" Rizzo told us. "Oh yeah we've all had those pathetic experiences, I wonder if they ever sell anything?" Asked Kenickie "Yeah Right Babe I doubt it" Replied Rizzo as she stood up and grabbed out a compact (the same one she had at the diner when she and Kenickie had the fight and the milkshake was spilled) and touched up her makeup, applying a shade of sexy red lipstick. She then strolled over to Kenickie and kissed him hard on the lips. "Whoa totally unexpected babe" He laughed as he gazed into Rizzo bright green eyes. "Well I like to surprise," replied Rizzo still looking into his eyes. Oh come on guys we're all watching isn't the slightest bit embarrassing but yet again some people have no shame. "Riz get off Kenickie's lap and let's get goin'" Cried Frenchy. Rizzo rolled her eyes and got off Kenickie's lap and kissed him one last time. I walked over to Danny and gave him a little goodbye hug and he gave me a peck on the cheek. I blushed a bright shade of red, "Danny not in public" I whispered, "Geez Sandy look at Rizzo and Kenickie they're not embarrassed!" he replied and continued to kiss me. Eventually I will have to just give up trying to improve Danny's behaviour but for now I'll just keep trying.
Soon enough we were completely off our men's laps and were waiting on the curb for a taxi. "Come on it's 10:30am in the upper-class suburbs of LA there should be at least one taxi around" Commented Frenchy "Why don't we ring one it is 1963 and we all have mobiles and taxi apps take advantage of this technology we are subjected to!" Rizzo commented with a roll of her eyes. I suppose she was correct I never expected there would be this much technology available to us; geez I'd hate to see how much technology would be available in 2014. Rizzo was now doing what looked like a really bad dance on the sidewalk. "Geez Riz watcha doin'?" asked Frenchy who looked equally as confused as I did. "Haven't you guys seen those American movies where they summon a taxi from the sidewalk" She replied as she stood up straight and straightened her coat. It was snowing now. When would this taxi ever arrive? Gee I was freezing. "Rizzo I remember that from the Babysitters Club books" Replied Frenchy. "What are those?" asked Rizzo clearly confused. "Remember those books Ann M. Martin wrote in the early 50's about those girls who babysat for kids in the town they lived in. They were a hit, I know Marty and I loved it we would exchange books and pretend we were the characters, I almost had the complete set" She replied "Never heard of that I was more of the paperback romance reader at that age" Laughed Rizzo. "Well that's you not us" I replied whilst brushing the snow off my jacket. Rizzo started her taxi-summoning dance yet again, we were freezing and if the dance didn't work this time we'd have to go back into Rizzo and Kenickie's house. I wish we'd taken a car and I was about to ask Rizzo if she owned one but then I remembered what Danny and Frenchy had told me about their occupations and if that was really their jobs their cars would stink so I didn't ask but Frenchy did though "Hey Riz do you have a car we could drive?" She asked, "Yeah French I drive a Porsche and Kenickie has a BMW but I don't wanna take it out today, Kenickie and I washed it yesterday, well really we washed each other he threw more soap at me and I threw more soap at him then we threw at the car all together" She replied as she smoked a cigarette and continued waiting for the taxi. We were about to give up and go back inside when a taxi drove straight down the street, they stopped. We got in. In the taxi I was squished between the door and Rizzo who was touching up her face with some Maybelline New York beauty products. How does she afford all of these make-up products if she just works as a bar waitress and even stranger how does she afford a Porsche. "Sandy do I look okay?" She asked as she tucked her compact back into her black clutch bag. "Lovely" I replied with a smile "What do ya think French?" Rizzo asked Frenchy this time "It's okay Rizzo pity it doesn't properly conceal those freckles, you have so many freckles people would think you are naturally a red head!" Frenchy replied. I'm a nicer person. "French I'm Italian, how many Italians have red hair?" Laughed Rizzo. Frenchy pointed to her bright orange hair "Even mine's not natural, mine used to be brown up until the seventh grade!" Frenchy replied. "I'm natural blonde" I replied with a smile "We know that the day you use hair dye Sandy is the day you die" Rizzo replied as she ran a comb through her dark brown jaw length curls. The drive was getting awkward now why hadn't we arrived at our destination yet. The driver did look a bit shady as he continued driving and hadn't spoken one word to any of us the whole drive. "Guys can we get Kenickie to pick us up?" Rizzo asked as she poured her bag contents out onto her lap. Dark glasses, cigarettes, an iPhone5S, a compact, a lipstick, a purse, a note pad and a photo of her and Kenickie hugging each other flew out of the bag, geez she must really love that man. "Riz watcha lookin' for?" asked Frenchy as she threw a dirty tissue that had fallen from Rizzo's bag into her lap back at Rizzo. "Sorry 'bout the tissue, it was Kenickie's" laughed Rizzo. A look of disgust spread across Frenchy's face. "Riz that is repulsive why would you have his tissue?" I asked with complete disapproval of the whole situation. "Well he had nowhere else to put it so I let him put it in my bag" Rizzo replied in a voice that was not bothered by the whole situation. "That is still disgu…" Frenchy started to say but was cut off by the taxi slamming to a halt. We were all slammed forward. What was going on? Rizzo swore as she picked up all her stuff off the ground. Frenchy just looked really annoyed. "What happened?" I asked the girls. "Well that stupid idiot must've been involved in some car chase in the taxi" Rizzo replied anger in her voice "Look there is some police car speeding along behind us" "How is it legal for him to operate as a taxi" Frenchy asked horrified. "It isn't" cried Rizzo just before muttering something under her breath. "Let's get outta here," Cried Frenchy as she pushed the door open. All three off us got out and quickly headed down the street. Rizzo tightened her scarf and straightened her long trench coat. "Oh God that was so scary" cried Frenchy. "Well we're out of the taxi at least none of us are hurt." I replied, "I'm ringing Kenickie" Said Rizzo as she whipped out her phone. We both nodded and listened in. Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring "Hey babe I need your help, well the taxi was in some illegal car chase can you pick us up?" She paused for a bit obviously listening to Kenickie. "Yes babe we are in some junky suburb I've never been here before, use the find my phone app," she continued just before pausing yet again. "You're the best and stay sexy, bye to you too," Rizzo concluded just before putting her phone bag into her clutch and giving us all a thumbs up. "Saved by Kenickie" Frenchy laughed. "Well that's good and all but I'm still freezing the snow is still falling hard" Commented Rizzo. "Yeah but do you guys actually think that driver actually had a licence?" Sandy asked. "Nah I doubt it maybe in India" Rizzo replied as she lit another cigarette and we continued to wait for the men. "Riz you're gonna get lung cancer before you're even twenty-one if you keep smoking at this rate" I told her, Frenchy gave me a roll of the eyes and Rizzo turned to me "Sandy, Sandy you have to learn to mind your own business!" Rizzo replied whilst giving me a look. Some people never learn I thought to myself. Rizzo was now facing the road clearly waiting for the guys. "C'mon babe just show up I'm cold and tired I need you," She muttered to herself under her breath.
As if on cue a black BMW 3 Series pulled over Kenickie was in the front seat with the window down he had a pair of aviator sunglasses on and was smiling a Rizzo. She ran of to the window and whispered something to Kenickie. He just smiled and kissed her lips hard and passionately. She returned the kiss with equal (if not more) passion. "Okay guys back up the truck can we not have some makin' out through a car window, it's not British" Danny commented from the passenger seat. Rizzo pulled away from Kenickie smiling. "I agree Zuko," replied Frenchy as she nodded at Danny. We all piled into the BMW. There were just enough seats for us. All the girls in the back and the guys in the front. "Where do you girls wanna go?" Kenickie asked from the front drivers seat. "Well we were gonna go to the mall and we'll probably still go" Rizzo replied leaning over to talk to Kenickie. "Cool the mall it is then" Kenickie replied as he swerved and turned a corner. Soon enough we turned into the underground parking in the Myer Centre. Kenickie stopped and let us all pile out. I gave Danny a little (un embarrassing) hug and the exact opposite to Kenickie and Rizzo; Kenickie had to get out the car so she could wrap her arms around him and kiss him. By the end of the kiss the atmosphere had gotten awkward. We didn't know whether to laugh at the kissing scene or to keep our mouths shut. Of course I went with option two. Soon enough the men were back in the car and reversing away. We waved and then headed into the lift.
The lift sped up to level five, Woman's Clothing, Miss Shop & Underwear. You could tell the difference between all of our styles. Frenchy went straight for pastels and floral, Rizzo went straight for the dark leather form fitting clothes and I went to flowy skirts and white blouses (girly girl clothes style). We shopped in the different sections and looked at our own styles this continued until I heard a loud "SANDY GET OVER TO THE CHANGE ROOMS IMMEDIATELY!" What was that it sounded like Rizzo? What was she on about this time? I grabbed the loose grey jumper I was looking at and headed straight over. "Riz what do you want?" I asked "Check out my outfit I want the opinion of another girl my age" she replied as she opened the door to her change room. Rizzo stepped in a pair of black leather pants and a tight dark green top the almost exposed her stomach. What an outfit I'd never, ever dress like that. " I suits you Riz, you totally have the right figure to dress like that" I replied, I liked bringing out the positives in everything and everyone. "Sandy you could wear this too. A lot of girls would envy a waist like yours" Rizzo replied as she examined herself in the full-length mirror on the change room door. "Hey ya guys watcha talkin' about?" asked Frenchy who was clutching several pairs of pastel jeans and a little Miss Shop (yes we all shop in Miss Shop and other teen fashion outlets, we all agree it's good for our age.) nail polish. "Rizzo just tried on this outfit she's wearing right now but anyway why do you have all those pastel garments?" I asked Frenchy "Well read the latest issue of either Dolly or Cleo magazine, pastels are the new thing!" Frenchy replied. Rizzo walked over to Frenchy and asked her about what she thought about the new outfit. (When she stood at the new angle I noticed that the outfit looked a bit small, I think she was supposed to wear a size smaller than hers but I didn't have the heart to tell her that). "Hey Riz that is super sexy, Kenickie will love it" Frenchy replied as she examined Rizzo, I think you could trust Frenchy's judgement she did used to go to beauty school. "Oh and girls it is meant to look tight, it's the style according to Marie Claire, I'm not trying to wear the wrong size" replied Rizzo looking at me, Oh God she must be psychic, scary thoughts. "Yeah Riz I really believe that" Laughed Frenchy. "Oh look at the size on tag of my black leather shorts, that speaks the truth, well at least it has never lied to me before" Rizzo replied as she headed back into the change room. I looked at some more clothes myself and ended up buying a soft grey jumper and some blue jeans (I know Frenchy says blue jeans are so last season but believe me they're not). I paid for the attire and waited for the others to get their outfits. Rizzo met up with me clutching a Miss Shop shopping bag. "Sandy are we gonna go get some breakfast soon, you woke me and Kenickie up and I'm starved" Rizzo asked, Bad grammar how can some people live with it "Firstly it's Kenickie and I not me and Kenickie and secondly as soon as Frenchy shows up we'll head to breakfast" I replied Rizzo rolled her eyes "Thank you teacher" she replied sarcastically. "Girls I'm back geez there was so many special offers I didn't know which one to choose" She replied clutching a matching bag to Rizzo's. "So what did you decide on?" Rizzo asked Frenchy pointing at her bag "Nail polish and stuff" she replied with a smile. "Let's go for breakfast," I told the girls. Rizzo nodded and Frenchy gave me a thumbs up. We headed straight towards a little outdoor café in the middle of the mall. "I've been here before" Rizzo told us as she pulled out a chair and sat down. "Haven't we all" Frenchy laughed sitting down as well. I sat down with them and we ordered some food. We all ate almost in silence except for the sound of chewing and cutlery clinking on our plates. "What's with this awkward silence?" I asked Rizzo. She just looked tired and turned to me. "Sandy I just really miss Kenickie, he's my best friend I just wanna go home and cuddle into his arms" Rizzo replied looking at her feet. Gee 'Miss Bad Reputation' was going soft. I can't believe that she'd settled on one guy. Rizzo loved Kenickie I could see that this morning when we walked in to their house, she loved him and she always will. "Riz are ya going soft?" laughed Frenchy "I thought you thrived on standing up for yourself and trying to have been with more guys then any other girl!" Rizzo rolled her eyes "Gee French let me be I'm human too, I am not going to be a rebellious teen all my life, I'm a collage graduate with a steady career and a house I share with my boyfriend" Rizzo replied. I thought about what she had said and I agreed. Rizzo had been that girl everyone hated but now she had grown up and pulled her life together, now and she trying to change the way people perceived her. Well I'm talking about Rizzo here I don't think she cares about how people perceive her, really she's her own person and proud of it. "Oh I 'spose" Frenchy said to us whilst rolling her brown eyes. Soon enough we finished the food and walked out into the mall. "Where to next ladies" asked Frenchy as soon as we were standing out in the mall. "We're ladies on a girls day out we deserve to get pampered" Sandy replied, "Manicures anyone?" Rizzo asked catching onto my own gist. Oh not manicures, I've never had one my parents didn't approve and I don't even really get what they are for, it would look really stupid if me Sandy Olsson a twenty year old romance novelist asking about manicures. "Sandy do you like the idea?" Frenchy asked me I just shrugged "Oh I bettcha she's never had a manicure before" laughed Rizzo "Why would you imply something like that" asked Frenchy. Rizzo turned to her giving her the look, a sort of death stare "Remember at the start of our senior year at Rydell High how you had Sandy over for a sleepover?" Rizzo began Frenchy nodded and signalled for her to continue. "Well you know how we offered her a cigarette and she said she had never smoked before and the other time when we offered her a drink and the only drink she'd ever had before was some champagne at her cousins wedding, well if she'd never done any of those I didn't expect that she'd have had a manicure either" Rizzo replied. I just blushed how did she know. I nodded I had never even seen a manicure being applied on someone else's hand. "Well then Sandy how do you feel about going to get a manicure?" She asked. I nodded. I was trying a new thing; I was being a risk-taker (alright I did go to a PYP school in Sydney and the girls definitely didn't). "Let's go then" Cried Rizzo as she started to walk down the mall high heels clicking and clacking against the pavement and putting her huge sunglasses on over her eyes.
"Guy's look it's the Nespresso store" Cried Frenchy. We were still walking down the mall towards a nail salon when Frenchy suddenly halted to a stop and pointed to a coffee machine/beans shop. "Yeah and why do we care?" Rizzo asked sarcastically "Did you hear that Sonny got a job here" Frenchy replied referring to a T-Bird that used to go to high school and college with us. "Really doesn't George Clooney advertise them?" Rizzo replied. I shrugged "Who's George Clooney" I asked, Frenchy and Rizzo rolled their eyes "Oh Sandy, Sandy, Sandy you don't know who George Clooney is, do you live under a rock?" Rizzo replied, "Do you know who Tom Cruise is?" Frenchy asked sarcastically clearly mocking me. Geez girls how hard can you make questions I thought to myself? "Who is he, some politician?" I guessed. Rizzo covered her face with her hands sighing loudly "An actor Sandy an actor. He's in that action movie Knight and Day, one of my personal favourites you know with Cameron Diaz, oh and he's also in that action movie Jack Reacher that Kenickie loves, we watched it on Foxtel" Rizzo replied in a 'geez Sandy get with it' voice, I shrugged again what sort of weird things do these girls talk about, I still don't get it. Frenchy and Rizzo looked at each other clearly thinking it's a lost cause. "Well back to Sonny and the Nespresso Corporation" Rizzo started "Well yeah I was on the phone with Marty the other day she said he got a job here at this exact store he sells coffee machines and those rip off pod things" Frenchy replied "Oh those things don't even mention them" Rizzo moaned "Why?" Frenchy and I both asked in union. She groaned, "Okay it's a totally different story about Kenickie and impulse buys, $2000 coffee machines and kids just out of college trying to pay it off" Rizzo replied. Frenchy and I just nodded and giggled because our guys were all the same. "So Riz do we wanna go in and say hello?" Frenchy asked, Rizzo shrugged "Why not, we only live once" she replied "Gee Riz it's just an old friend and a coffee store no need to get all worked up" Frenchy replied looking at Rizzo weirdly. Rizzo rolled her eyes giving Frenchy a 'Smart Bum' look and walking into the store. God I'd never seen so many coffee machines, they lined the walls the tables even the floor. Nicely dressed employees with name badges walked around showing people the machines and making them free sample coffee. We all looked around for Sonny until Rizzo say him "Sonny over here" She called out waving "Oh hey girls" He said walking over "I haven't seen you in ages" he said as he passed us some little coffees "Same vice versa, wait how's Mart, you still together" Frenchy asked "Of course she finally likes me, I really charmed her in senior year, wait Riz are you and Kenickie still together, no unexpected little babies I hope" He joked. Rizzo rolled her eyes "Ha, Ha, Ha" she said sarcastically "Of course we're still together, Kenickie has changed and no unexpected babies either" She replied smiling sarcastically and fakely at Sonny (the same smile she gave me when she told me that Danny might show up somewhere unexpected at the beginning of grade twelve) "Yes, yes" Sonny said as he listened to Rizzo. Frenchy quickly told him all the boring details about New York and he promised to let Jan and Putzie know because he and Marty were going out with them tonight. We thanked him for his time and we headed out the shop straight towards the manicurist.
Soon enough my nails were a baby pink and looked really presentable. Rizzo's looked completely different, they were long and painted bright red. "Geez Rizzo those things blind me," cried Frenchy pointing at Rizzo's nails. "French accept it Kenickie is gonna drool over these nails" Rizzo replied as she gazed at her own nails. "Oh yeah he is gonna get so excited" Frenchy replied sarcastically "You know Riz if you ever get pregnant and have a child you are definitely not going to have this figure or these nails anymore" I told her truthfully. Rizzo gave me look "Yeah, yeah I'm gonna prove you wrong Sandy, if I ever have a kid, no a girl I need a girl if I don't have a girl I'll freak, I'll still fit into this size six skirt I'm wearing today" Rizzo replied looking at me. "Yeah, yeah I can see you going to a size twenty six," Frenchy muttered to me under her breath. I giggled but Rizzo heard "If I were you I'd shut up," She cried lifting up her little black clutch. What awful friends I thought with a smile.
Soon enough we were leaning against the car park wall waiting for Doody. Frenchy had rung him up and asked him to pick him up, none of us wanted to get into another taxi after our experience this morning. "Ladies anyone want a cigarette" Rizzo asked as she got one out of her bag for herself. Frenchy and I shook our heads all of us had decided to quit (no more French inhaling for Frenchy) because of all the medical problems it can cause you later on in life. All those news reports hadn't quite gotten to Rizzo yet, what do you expect. "Alright then guys" Rizzo replied as she checked her Facebook. We stood like this for some time Rizzo smoking and Facebooking at the same time (she is a multi-tasker) and Frenchy and I just waiting. Soon enough a silver Toyota Camry Hybrid pulled over. "DOODY" Cried Frenchy expression coming back to her previously bored face. Rizzo butted out her cigarette and threw it in a bin just before slipping a Tic-Tac into her mouth. "Hey Riz are you worried that Kenickie will not wanna kiss a girl that tastes like an ashtray" mocked Frenchy smiling but before Rizzo could give her back a smart-allic retort a man's voice called out from behind us "Who tastes like an ashtray" He asked. "DOODY" Frenchy cried yet again as he picked her up and spun her around. "Hey beautiful" He said to her. Frenchy just huggled closer to him in return "Awe come on, Why couldn't that be Kenickie, I miss him too much" Gushed Rizzo "Riz you'll see your man soon enough" Doody replied with a smile "Oh yeah as if you know, since when have you been a philosopher" Rizzo replied sarcastically, the softness in her voice from when she was talking about Kenickie was now completely gone. What did I tell you she's complicated "Come on Ladies into the car, okay it's new by the way" He replied stroking the door of the Camry. Rizzo was just slowly opening the door when Doody screamed "RIZZO WATCH THE DOOR" he pointed at the door, which was about a millimetre away from the junky Volkswagen next to us. "Calm your farm" Rizzo replied as she got into the car and started applying some makeup to her face. "Never heard of natural beauty, have ya?" mocked Doody from his front seat. "Kenickie only like's me with make up" Rizzo relied "Rizzo really, do you have make up on in bed at night" Doody asked her "No, not at all why" She continued "Well he likes you then doesn't he" "Yes he does, he likes me more then anything then" "Well there you have it Rizzo Kenickie likes you without makeup we have proof" He replied "Oh Doody now I don't doubt your philosophy skills" Rizzo thanked him sarcastically. We then we continued to drive heading straight towards Rizzo and Kenickie's house.
