Chapter 4: "Special Day"
Once again in Carters P.O.V
Well I had everything planned ready, I stood by the front door waiting for him. Cherry is going to be SO mad when she believes my little plot. Well Bob walked in.
"Look kid, I know you don't like me and I don't like you so why don't we think of this like a baby sitting gig where I don't get paid alright?" He sternly spits. Then Cherry comes downstairs to say goodbye and Marcia pulls up to pick Cherry up. I open the window and scream
"DON'T LEAVE ME HERE TAKE ME WITH YOU." Cherry shakes her head and Marcia just laughs and the shiny car that held my only escape drives away. I start up the stairs.
"Where are you going?"
"I'll be in my room pretending I don't exists." He gives me a nasty look, I give him a nastier one.
"Oh I'll be leaving soon cause I know you'll probably leave eventually." I yell
"OH NO you are staying here, if I have to stay here you're staying. So go in your room and I better not hear a peep from you, if I do so help me.
"What ever mama's boy." I say under my breath. Well I heard Randy's and I think Chris's voice a few minutes later, if Bob was having friends I was leaving that balances everything out. I slowly open my door to see how many people where here, but Bob saw me and started yelling at me while I flipped the bird on both hands saying
"Who's number one little Bobby is, because that's how many brains he wished he had." And with that I run to my room put my hat on, put a chair up to the handle with a string tied to the leg. I open my window and start climbing down the rose wall thing. I could still hear Bob pounding on the door. I pull the string on my way down and boy he is mad. I start running down the street hiding in bushes and behind trees because when I got off my street I heard Bob's car turn on and yelling at everybody to hurry up and get in. I kept on running my little heart out, I'm onto the east side now hurriedly looking for the D.X hopefully someone would be there. But I get there and Bob's car is parked right out front, I'm behind a very thick long bush and a tree one move they'll see me great. I look a little down the street and see a small woods, all I need is a truck to hide behind while I run. It takes a long while until a big bakery truck passes by and my plan works. I'm on Sutton road I'm pretty sure this is the right way to Pony's house, I thought I saw Bob's car and I run again thinking he'll see me I keep running until I felt a giant hard wall. Okay not a wall more of a person but it still hurt.
"I'm sor- Oh hey Carter." It was Johnny.
"Johnny-boy I'm sorry I thought I saw Bobs car. "
"It's Johnnycakes not Johnnyboy." he shyly says
"Isn't he your cousins boyfriend or somethin?" quickly changing the subject.
"We have a mini rivalry at the moment, he was "baby sitting me" and I snuck out my window since he would have caught me." I say
"Whys he mad?"
"I might have insulted him a little and showed him he's number one with the middle finger." I explain.
"Well lets go some where inside. Wanna go to Pony's house." He says
"Sure." We carefully sneak to his house, I was a little nervous to tell you the truth but made it safely there.
"Why do you both look like you were being chased to death?" Two-bit cracks.
"Cousin boyfriend mad." I manage to wheeze out.
"Hahahahaha nice." Says some guy I never met, but he looked the oldest and was probably the most responsible.
"I'm Darry Curtis my after thought of a brother said you would come over today." Ah Soda and Pony's oldest brother, that's who Pony kept talking about the other night. I smile
"Nice to meet you I'm Carter." We shake hands, he had a firm but loose grip.
"Carter if you need anything you just come here alright. The door is never locked just let yourself in. " he slowly says
"alright thank you."
"Two-bit no corrupting her mind with mickey mouse and beer alright."
"Yeah what ever. Carter let me tell you everything there is about Mickey mouse." Darry smacks his forehead hypnotizes Two-bit with a beer.
"SODA HAVE YOU SEEN PONY?" He yells through the chaos.
"YEAH, HE SAID HE FORGOT SOMETHING AT THE LOT AND HAD TO GO GET IT. HE LEFT TWO SECONDS BEFORE CARTER SHOWED UP!" he yells back.
"That kid is always forgetting something, one day I think I'm gonna have him carry around a giant sign with stuff he's suppose to do." he says under his breath. Johnny comes back in the room with Pepsi and slices of cake handing me one of each. Steve walks in holding a deck of cards
"Poker anyone?" And we all rush into a circle receiving chips and cards.
"Anyone wanna play black-jack?" I ask
"Alright." Haha what they don't know this is my best game. Well everyone looked a little itchy, I saw Soda kept scratching his ankle, I know he has an ace hidden in there for the next poker game. Two-bit literally hid his few cards up his sleeves, Steve had his sticking under his shirt, I know Johnny had his in the bottom of his jeans and Pony came in with his book and slid it in while we dealt him in. I think we needed a little lesson and teach these guys how to hide their cards so much better. Everyone was under 19 except me I had 21 on the dot winning half of their chips. Then we decided to play actual poker and I "accidently." kicked Soda's leg by "mistake" and grabbed his ace slyly. Steve moved seats making all his cards and I quickly picked them up and switching my terrible cards and replacing them with his cards. Two-bit was caught trying to hide his cards but we let him think we didn't notice. I couldn't figure a way to get Johnny and Pony's hidden cards, so I let them be.
While Soda "scratched his ankle" he tried hiding panic on his face, I evilly smiled and he shook his head. Steve "rubbed his stomach" and I held some of his cards with a "surprised face" and he laughed. Johnny and Pony managed to win the first few rounds and after the fifth round we got bored.
"Who wants to play fifty two pick up?" I ask
"No one does." So I made all the cards fly towards Steve. Soda and Steve did some arm wrestling which some how managed to spin into an all out wrestling match. They knocked the table over, books, empty plates, cups pretty much everything they ran into until they ran into Darry who pulled them apart giving each a special noogie. We were going out to eat but we remembered Bob was probably looking for me we decided to stay. So for a few hours we lounged around tossing the foot ball back and forth until 5:34ish. Dang it Cherry had to be home soon.
"Guys Cherry didn't know I snuck out and I need to get Bob in trouble so I gotta get going." I quickly say.
"We can drive you." Darry offers.
"No Bob will see your car can you drive me half way, I need to sneak in." I say
"Of course, just tell me the way." Well on the way there I fill him in on everything that happened then I walked out and started my journey which wasn't to much of a problem. Bob and his friends were looking out the window, I snuck around the left side of the house, I just make it behind the house when I see Marcia's car. DANG IT what else will happen. No I have to finish this or she's gonna kill me. I see the basement door, please please OH PLEASE be open, YES SOMETHING GONE RIGHT. Well I go down stairs and pull on the door that leads upstairs YES ITS LOCKED.
"Hello, Carter?"Its Cherry. I start banging on the door yelling.
"C"MON BOB LET ME OUT! BO-" Cherry opens the door.
"Carter what are you doing down here?" she asks.
"I left my hat down here, I went to go get it and Bob locked me down here."
"BOB GET YOUR BUTT OVER HERE NOW." He comes jogging over acting Mr. smooth
"Why would you lock Carter down here?" She asks tapping her foot, ohhh her comes her snappy side.
"I didn't lock her down there I-" I interrupt
"So I go down here lock the door and act like you locked me down here. Why would I do that?" Well he's speechless this is working perfectly.
"I bet Chris and Randy di-"
"Why were they here Bob? Hm when I said just you and Carter I meant you and Carter only. No what just go home." She says. And with her words slowly processing into Bob's small empty head he leaves. She goes up the stairs leaving me alone, so I decide to call my sister and tell her what happened.
"No you didn't Carter."
"Yes I did. It was fun."
"That's great Carter, hey I gotta get going Sam is over bye." Oh Sam I remember how sad Kimmy was when she moved they were best friends and she moved to New York. Out of all of Kimmy's many many friends I think I liked Sam the best, she never thought of me as the annoying tag-along little sister. Or the pain that won't leave them alone, nope most of the time she invited me to go with them to parties and dinners as long as I let Kimmy dress me up of course. I only had one rule for that
No skirts at all.
I don't know why I always hated them they didn't look comfortable I guess. I shake my random thought and remember the last time I wore a skirt which had to be first grade, second grade the latest. I was always the jean lover not so much into skirts and make up. I did put some on and wear a dress once in a while if it was a special occasion or a fancy dinner or holiday/party. Those were the only times I allowed myself to dress like Barbie but not as revealing like most of her outfits. But I'm getting off topic here, lets say skirts and I not the closest quaintness Dresses completely fine, skirts was a huge no, like if I could make a parade of skirt hating I would, I would need a good enough reason for that. I remember the first night I was here like it was a few days ago (which it was)
"Please Carter just wear it this one time that's all I'm asking you'll look really cute in it, I promise." I shook my head being the stubborn person I could be.
"I let you do my makeup and hair there is NO WAY I Carter Allison Ride (aka C.A.R girl) is wearing a skirt."
"Why not you would wear them in first grade." She pouted
"Yeah when I wasn't allowed to wear what I wanted. Now I am allowed to choose my outfits and I choose my perfectly fine jeans." She rolled her eyes this conversation went on for a few minutes but she gave up. I never really told you guys this because I thought it wasn't important until I started talking about skirts.
"How about heels?"
"I'M OUTTA HERE!" I storm away I would rather wear skirts then heels, those two combine are torture to me. I never really figured why we needed to get dressed up to see a movie, a date I could see but there wasn't a date going on. No sirree. Besides Bob they are my mortal enemies.
