Lately I've been getting reviews, and people following this story and i would like to thank you guys for not giving up on this story so lets try this again. Thanks to 2-kaylas-heart for having me update this (its for you)
Chapter 10: SO do ya or not?
Carter's P.O.V
"Well what do you mean by crush?" I asked without looking at them in the eye.
"You know like-like."
"Girlfriend/boyfriend."
"BIRDS AND THE BEE'S FOR GOD SAKE." That response came from Dally laughing at it. I look at the ground and try to stop my smile at the thought of girlfriend/boyfriend.
"Hey she's blushing." Steve notices great.
"Second verse same as the first Carter and Pony sittin in the tree K.I.S.S.I.N-" They're interrupted by a voice, a voice they're trying get me with.
"SODA DARRY YOU GUYS HOME?" It was Pony
"YEAH IN HERE!" They were all trying to hold in their laughter before he walked into the room.
"Whats so funny?"
"Lets let Carter explain this one." All eyes are on me, so much pressure. Must. Hold. in. thoughts. C'mon Carter deep breathes. It all slips out
"TWO-BIT WANTS TO DRESS UP LIKE A GIRL TO GO OUT WITH YA." Its silent. I look over at Steve and Dally, they are bugged eyed.
"Sorry Two-bit I don't think it would work out so well." Well you could feel the awkwardness in the room. Steve thought somethin needed to happen so he "accidentally" shoved me into Pony. Luckily he catches me, we look at each-other real fast remembering the others are in here. Pony looks up
"Oh shut it, I gotta do homework." He leaves to go to his room I'm not sure if my eyes are deceiving me or not but I swear I thought him blush ever so slightly.
Ponyboys P.O.V
If only they weren't in the room. SO CLOSE! A good moment to - never mind I shouldn't rant to you guys.
Dear JOURNAL,
Oh so close we could of-giggle- kiss. Must control yourself, alright. The perfect moment will come, I can't wait for it gotta make it happen. I have to ask her out I DO need advice, I need to ask-gulp-Darry AND Soda. Okay I'll just wait for things to calm down outside my room. After everyone leaves I'll ask 'em alright I just gotta beg them not to tell and help me out. I gotta do my "homework."
I pace back and forth waiting for everyone to leave and for Darry to get home. I check the clock. He should be home any minute all I need to hear is a
"- see ya'll tomorrow hey dar."
"Hey Two-bit going home?"
"Yeah I have a bet with my little sister to win. See ya's." My voice shakes as I call them in. Oh boy it feels like I'm gonna be sick.
"D-DAR S-S-soda c-can you come in here?" And I hear their footsteps and muffled voices.
"Hey Pone whats the matter?" I don't realize I'm still pacing until Soda points it out.
"I'm not sure how to ask but I need both of your help. But you gotta promise me you won't tell anyone or anything."
"I promise whats this about." They ask.
"H-how h-h-how d-d-do you ask." It really feels like I'm gonna be sick now.
"I know lil Pone wants to ask out our dear friend Carter." Soda says.
"We don't have to do the talk right?" Darry asks.
"But when do I do ask? I don't think I can wait any longer and I need to do it a special way." An idea sprigs into my mind better then Soda's earlier suggestions.
Johnny's P.O.V
We're at rehearsals.
"This isn't as much fun as I thought it would be." Pony whispers to me.
"Well show times tomorrow just bare through." And we go on and on song through song. I'm ready to fall asleep when
"WHERE'S MARI- oh there you are your song is on." My music teacher tells me.
"Alright." And I follow her out. I see Carter standing up with the rest of the show people.
"Since we're having trouble with the dancing, we'll just sing it standing up with tons of microphones. Okay, so now we have more time for lines well er songs. So can Johnny and Carter please come forward and start your song." The instructor tells us. Well the music starts playing and we're about to sing when Two-bit and Dal enter distracting us with toilet paper being thrown everywhere. By the time we clean up its time to leave. we all walk to the Curtis's together dancin around like usual.
"Hows rehearsal ready for tomorrow?"
"Yeah I guess." We all say. Pony speaks up.
"Hey Carter can you come with me outside real quick?" He asks quietly. She looks stunned but gladly agrees. I grab another slice of cake and I over hear them
"After the play tomorrow night meet me on the balcony in the auditorium okay? I gotta ask you something."
"Sure." I quickly walk inside and as everyone starts headin out I finish my cake and decide to go on a ride with Dal, still playing their voices in my head.
Soda's P.O.V
I decide to pull Dar and Pone into our room.
"You finally ask her?"
"Not yet I will though." he replies
"Where, when I want the details Ponyboy." Darry says like its the best teenage girl conversation ever.
"Just look up on the balcony after the play tomorrow night." And a smile slides on his face.
