(1425 words shawty😜)
So for background info rn. After Steve and Gracie had their little moment steve and gracie gets ice cream and hang out for a couple hours until steve drops her off at home and she stays up all night think about him until she falls asleep.

BACK TO GRACIES POV YALLL!!
Yesterday was amazing. I had the best time with steve than i ever had. He taught me some more stuff about cars.

Today we were meeting up at the Dingo for some milkshakes and food. my hair was in delicious waves and I had my make up done perfect. Im wearing a black skirt and lavender shirt with my white Converse. I pair them with some necklaces and bracelets and earrings that I got. I put on some little gold hoop earrings with a locket necklace that I gotten from one of my old best friends that moved to Florida along with a friendship bracelet that we both made together as well.

I can't wait to see what today has planned hanging out with Steve again.. ever since the last day of school, it has been the best summer yet. Me and Steve were dating, which was a dream for me when summer started, which was surprising because we got together not even a week after summer started. I was proud to say I was dating Steve Randle it was a dream come true.

Instead of walking to the dingo this time I had my older brother drive me there so I wouldn't have to walk. " hope you have a fun time and remember no funny business." my brother warned me and pointed at me as I got out of the car.
" don't worry about that it will be OK!" I assured him as I turned around and walked into the dingo.

I looked around to see if steve was there yet. He was. as soon as I spotted him, I ran over to the booth he had picked out. " Hi Steve!" I said as I sit down opposite of him.
"Hey beautiful" he smiled.
" ready to order?" he added.
I nodded to him yes and we started looking through the menus. " Milkshake?" I asked.
" to share? With you, of course." he smiled at me.

"We'll take a milkshake" Steve looked over at me and smiled once again with a grin "with two straws as well" he told the waitress as she wrote it down and went off.
"I had fun yesterday" i leaned over more towards the table
"I did too, we need to do that again sometime" he said excitedly.
"So what are we thinking of doing today?" i asked him briefly
"Well i thought maybe we would go to the arcade maybe, play some games and take pictures in the booths maybe?" he suggested to me
"That sounds really fun, we should" i agreed with him

Not too long after, the waitress came back with the milkshake and straws.
She sat them down, "anything else?" she questioned.
"We're good for now" I said, opening my straw she gave us.
"Alright holler if ya need me" she ran off to some other table.

I took the first sip of the milkshake, it was soooo good. As soon as Steve took a sip his eyes closed and you could tell he liked it alot from the look of his face.
"Oh great balls of fire, this is good" Steve let out before taking another long drink of the milkshake.

We were nearly finished with it, we weren't gonna order anything else because we were planning on going to the arcade and see about getting something there.
"I'll be right back, ok?" I got up and headed to the bathroom.
"Alright I'll pay" I heard him say before I left the booth area.
That milkshake got to me alright, I had to use the bathroom badly.
I never realized how nice the bathroom looked compared to other places I've been to before.

I washed my hands, and dried them before heading out back to steve.
Butwhat i saw left me speechless. It was Evie, Steve's ex-girlfriend; he used to mess around with back when school was going.Before I could even process anything to say, she kissed him. And that's when I had it. I couldn't stand her, let alone her KISSING MY BF!!
"WHAT THE HELL STEVE, WHAT THE HELL!!" I yelled, I didn't care if I was causing a scene.
I ran out past them as fast as I could, but Steve had already seen me.
"GRACIE WAIT!" was the last thing I heard before I took off running as fast as I could to somewhere, anywhere other than near him. All I could feel was hot tears running down my face as I ran down the streets. I didn't even care about getting jumped by socs or any of that stuff. I didn't care.

I wasn't thinking, I should have just gone home but instead I went to Curtis' house. I know that soda can help or I think he can since they are so close you know?
I was out of breath from running at least like 5 miles. I busted open the door to everyone staring at whoever just slammed the door.
"Sorry" was all I managed to let out, you could tell I was crying from the looks of tears running down and my red face.
Everyone just stared.
"Steve.." I replied. I paced into the kitchen away from everyone, soda and Darry followed while everyone else stayed in the living room.

I kept pacing back and forth through the kitchen. What if there was something going on between them? What if he leaves me for her? What if… is all I could think about right now, Soda grabbed my shoulder and stopped me.
"Gracie.. Tell me what's wrong" he demanded looking deep into my eyes.
I wiped the tears from my eyes with the sleeve of my shirt, "I went to use the bathroom before we left from the Dingo to head to the Arcade, and when I got back Evie was there. She kissed him Soda. KISSED HIM but he didnt do anything. Didn't even push her off… "I let all my emotions come out, I was balling my eyes out. Darry was watching from the table as I told them what happened. Darry got up and pulled me into a hug, I felt bad for getting his shirt wet from crying into it.

"Sorry about the shirt" I mumbled out to him.
"Hey it's fine, it's just a shirt." he rubbed my back, "and it will be ok, i'm sure it meant nothing ok." he tried to reassure me.
"But what if it meant something?" I pulled out of the hug.
"Let's hope it's not"I heard him say, pulling me back in.

I cried into his arms for what felt like hours. It was pretty late and he offered to Take Me Home so I wouldn't have to walk.You could tell he really felt bad for me.Which I don't blame him.
He tried his best to comfort me after what happened.Which I really do appreciate him doing, considering we're not even family at all, let alone friends at the most, But I have a feeling that's gonna change. And we would be friends after all.

"Darry, Thank you. I appreciate it. I just don't know why she would kiss him and why he wouldn't do anything to prevent it. I mean, he could have at least pushed her off or said something.But no, he just sat there." We approached the driveway of my house.
"No problem, sweetheart. Swing by anytime you need me or anything at all. I will have a talk with him next time I see him, ok?" he shouted from inside of his car.

I waved goodbye as he drove off and I went inside.
Being honest, I didn't even feel like getting undressed or taking off my makeup or anything like that. I just took my shoes off and went straight to my bed. I bawled my eyes out for hours and hours, My body felt numb, My head hurt, My eyes were sore from so much crying. It was too much for me. I still can't believe what a day I've had. My eyes slowly drifted asleep.

(I HAD TO PASTE OFF OF GOOGLE DOCS OK. THATS WHY ITS SO SMALL. IM SO MAD.) (WAIT I PUBLISHED IT AND NOW ITS BIG!!) 😜🎀🔥🫶🏻😍
