Stay Gold || 'The Outsiders' One Shots

Oh, Sandy... (part 1)

Okay so Soda + Sandy's story has always really interested me, and despite knowing what happend between them, we don't know a lot of how it happened and the aftermath of it, so I decided to write this.

I poured my heart and soul into this fic and am very proud of the way it has turned out. There are three parts, and I'll get them up within the next few days :)

Just a small warning of some *implied/talked about* adult themes (nothing overly specific) and violence, but nothing terrible.

And yes, the title is entirely based on the song from 'Grease' ;)

Anyways, enjoy :)

•••••••••••

Sandy sat at the end of the bed, staring into space, heart pounding in her chest.

Had this really happened?

Had she really done this?

She didn't want to believe it, but she couldn't take it back now, the damage was done.

"Sandy?"

Sandy glanced behind her at Daniel, who just happened to be a Soc, one she had met the night before - only the night before.

"You ain't looking too good Sandy." Daniel said, sitting up and moving down to sit next to her, wrapped only in the bedsheets.

Sandy swallowed hard. "This - This never should've happened." She whispered, hardly managing to get the words out.

Daniel stared at her, before frowning. "Is this because of that Greaser you're with?" He muttered.

"Daniel don't." Sandy muttered.

"Come on Sandy, don't you go worrying about him." Daniel said. "He ain't worth it, dunno why you were with him in the first place. A girl like you shouldn't be with a greaser like him."

Sandy smiled weakly, before realising she was actually smiling at what Daniel had said and quickly changing her expression, feeling even more guilty than she already was.

"I should be getting home." She whispered after a while, standing and trying to find her shoes.

Daniel laid back down, hand behind his head and smiling at Sandy. "I'll see you again?" He questioned.

Sandy froze, finding herself nodding, before she grabbed her found shoes and dashed from the room.

What had just happened?

Why was she such an idiot?

Soda was one of the nicest boys she'd ever met, he was kind, he was caring, he respected her, he was loyal - and it turned out, she was not.

She had cheated on Sodapop Curtis, she had slept with another man, and she had no idea why.

Soda had always been respectful towards her, treated her like a princess every single day no matter what. He adored her, loved her to pieces, treasured every second he spent with her.

He was so in love and respected her so much that he was even waiting for marriage, and Sandy fully accepted that and actually loved it, it was hard to find a guy like that, yet what had she gone and done? Thrown it all out the window and spent the night with some random person she barely knew... And a Soc at that.

"What am I gonna tell him?"

Sandy stopped dead where she had been walking down the street, her heart beginning to pound again.

What would she tell him?

It would destroy him surely...

"You don't have to tell him..."
