Jesse's Pov
I see Soda looking at me a little funny. But I just blow it off; I get looks from a lot of people a lot. I think it's because I'm a girl and I'm still not afraid of you. And I like that. Even though I do get scared sometimes I just don't show it, I find no need to and if I do people will treat me like I'm a little girl. I am no little girl! And I will beat anyone up whose says I am.
See I was always called princess by my dad when I was little, I didn't get it. Being a Greaser you don't hear too many fairy tales, so I asked him one day what a princess was. He said this girl who had big puffy dresses to wear every day and had to be nice and sweet to everybody she knew. Then and there I promised myself something…never be a princess, ever.
"Hey Jesse can I talk to you?" Asked Sodapop.
"Sure what?" I say just finishing my pancakes and throwing the paper plate at Dally. "Here are your pancakes back, Dally." I scream as I watch the syrupy plate hit him in the face. Okay I was actually going for the hair, but I guess that the face is the next best thing.
"Alone." Soda says to me with a serious face. Ohh, now I know what this is …Sally problems.
So we walk to his room. It is a mess if you ask me, but isn't any better. So why am I complaining?
We sit on his bed and he starts to cry. Hard. Unfortunately I know what this means, Sally left him. No one has ever cried this hard. At least no one I've seen in my life time. She really meant something to him I guess. No, I know that she meant the world to him.
"It's okay, don't worry she just left the best thing that ever happened to her." I say to him, and mean what I say.
"She is having another mans baby." Now he's crying even harder.
I hate that girl. She never deserved someone as good as Sodapop Curtis. She just makes me so mad. And sad at the same time, how could she do that to him. No one deserves this, not even Dally.
Johnny's Pov
I see Rach looking at me while I eat my food. So I do the best I can. At least I thought this is what she wanted.
"Want some of my pancakes?" I ask.
Rachel's Pov
Oh my gosh! How does he think that what I like about him? I can feel my eyes begin to water; I have to go before I start to bawl in front of the boys.
"I have to go use the bathroom." I say as I start to walk to the bathroom, but I just go outside on the back porch.
When I get to the back porch I start to bawl, and I can't stop. I hate boys, I HATE them. They are so inconsiderate. Maybe he was just being nice, you know the real Johnny? I hope so. But what if thinks that I just like him as a person, when really I think that I'm in love with that boy.
He deserves better parents. They treat him like crap. Maybe, someday, they'll realize how amazing their son really is.
Sodapop's Pov
I can this look in her eyes, this look of hatred. I could never feel that about Sandy, I think that I still love her. How can't I? She needs someone more than ever now. But I can't reach her, she's in Florida. Guess I have to just hope that she knows that I love her.
