I put the code into my locker and flung it open furiously.It hadn't been the best morning and I was in a terrible mood.I heard a yelp and then a sharp thud hit the floor.I hastily shoved my books into my locker and shut it to see Teddy Holmes,clutching his head. "I'm so sorry are you OK!" I exclaimed,holding up a hand to help him up.I must have hit him when I flung my locker door open.
He took my hand and pulled himself up, "It's all good,I meant to fall anyway" he told me grinning. Teddy was always friendly,he was in my math class and he always made it less dull.
"Uh Baby", he began,sounding nervous and I cannot stress how unusual that was for him. "The reason I came over was...I was wondering...uhm...do you maybe wanna come out to the Dingo with me tommorow night?"
I was stunned.No one ever asked me out before,I didn't even think anyone ever liked me.My stomach fluttered,I was so taken aback I couldn't say anything.
Eventually I managed to stutter out a "yes I'd love to".He smiled the biggest smile I had ever seen and said, "great! We can meet there at seven?"
The bell rang and we hurriedly said goodbye and ran to our next class.Teddy was all I thought about for the rest of the day.My first date! My Mother used to always talk about if I ever got a boyfriend.I always thought she would help me get ready,let me borrow her makeup and do my hair all nice.Then when the boy arrived both my parents would come to the door and tell him to have me home by ten,and I would get all embarrassed and hurriedly leave.They would be waiting for me when I came home though,and I would tell her all about it.We always told eachother everything,I mean we lived with four boys! I was closest with my Mother out of everyone else.
I felt tears well up in my eyes thinking about how she wouldn't be there for any of that.Then I remembered that I was in class and that you shouldn't let people see you cry. "Stop it Baby" I thought to myself, "You have loads of people that love you.You've got the gang and your brothers-"
Then it dawned on me,how was I gonna tell them that I was going on a date?"
...
"Dar"
My eldest brother looked up from his paper, "What's up Baby?"
"Are we doing anything tomorrow night?" I asked casually.
"No,why?"
"I just wanted to go to the dingo with a friend,that's all."
The whole gang stared at me in utter shock. "Which friend" asked Darry. "You don't have any friends" added Ponyboy.
I glowered at him, "just a friend" I replied.
"She's blushing," declared Twobit, "It's a date!"
Darry sat up from his chair and looked at me, "Is it?"
"No! Shut your trap Two-bitch!" I yelled. He mimicked my words and within seconds we were wrestling each other on the floor.
"Damnit Two get off of her" commanded Darry,standing up. I got up off of the floor, "It's not a date Dar we're just friends"
He put his hands on his hips, "but it's a boy isn't it"
"Yes he's a boy bu-"
"Which boy"
"Teddy Holmes"
"I know him!" interrupted Ponyboy loudly, "We have english together,he asked you out,wow".
I gave Ponyboy a threatening look. Why did he have to butt in all the time? I love my twin but he can be extremely irritating at points.
"Is this boy nice Pone?" asked Darry. Ponyboy shrugged, "Yeah I guess,he's real funny.And smart".
