The Greaser and the Socist

Help from the Curtis'

I can't believe I just did that. I just dumped my now ex-fiance without even seeing him before I left. I know that I should feel bad, but I don't. He hurt me; physically, mentally, and emotionally. Never, will I ever go back to a life of pain and social stereotyping. I couldn't bear to face him myself. He would have my head faster than you can say Johnny Cade. You can call me a jerk or say I'm being rude, but it's too late to stop me now. 

I walk up to the Curtis' house and knock on the front door, shivering from the cold rain that started pouring right after I left my house. Darry opened the door and immediately pulled me into a hug and grabbed a towel that was conveniently laying across the couch. "Elle, what happened? Are you okay? Did Duke hurt you? If he did, he is never going to see the light of day again!" Great, I've been here for 30 seconds and he is already mad. A mad Darry is NEVER a good thing. I love him though, he treats me like his little sister, not as a Soc. 

Although I was slightly amused watching him be mad, I knew I would have to stop it immediately. "Darrel Curtis!!!! That is enough! Getting mad won't do anything!" I screamed at him, making him stop and look at me. Darry may be tough, but I know how to put him in his place. "Hey, Darry! What'd you do to make her mad this time?!" I heard a third voice, making me look over to see the man I never wanted to see again, the bane of my existence.

"Duke, how did you find me?" I asked, with venom lacing every word I said. "Oh, a little boy named Samuel told me he saw you walking into the Greaser house. Shouldn't you be treating me with a little more respect?" Crap. I forgot about Duke's little brother being friends with the neighbor. 

"I don't know who you think you are, just talking to me as if I wouldn't understand you. I left because I'm allowed to go here." I stated very nonchalantly. "So you hang out with these urchins? They are a bunch of drug pushers and obviously have no taste in style!" He screamed at me.

Okay, he did not just go there. "YOU KNOW WHAT?!!! GET OUT! I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOUR UGLY FACE EVER AGAIN!!!! I'M ALREADY GOING TO HAVE YOUR CHILD! YOU DON'T ACTUALLY LOVE ME, YOU JUST WANT MY FAMILY'S MONEY !!!! YOUR CHILD WILL NOT HAVE CONTACT WITH YOU IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM! I LOATHE YOU DUKE STEVEN WILSON!!!" I storm out of the house, slamming the door and breaking it. 

I run, run as far away from him as I can. He can't treat MY child or myself like this. I come to my thinking spot, the hill. I sit under the great oak tree, sobbing into my arms. "Don't worry baby girl, everything will be okay. We'll get through this." I mumble to my 17 week baby bump. "It'll be hard, but we'll get through it.... somehow."
