Good Girls Like Bad Boys

Chapter 5

I woke up at 6 the next morning, lets be fair I had been sleeping since around 5 the day before. The sun was just rising so I decided to go sit in the porch to watch it. The colours were amazing. All of my favourite colours are in the sunrise though - the yellows and oranges and blues.

The sun was up by 6.45 so I went inside to have a shower. I took the bandage off from yesterday to see that it had scabbed over, so it looked more pleasant. I jumped in the hot shower and the warm water soon filled the air with sticky steam. I remembered that I had a date with Dally that night so I quickly washed my hair and jumped out the shower.

Grabbing a towel I ran through to my bedroom and shut my blinds as best I could. I quickly put on my dressing gown and ran to the hall. I grabbed the phone and dialled Dally's number. After two rings he picked up, "Hello."

"Hi Dally?"

"That you Asha?"

"Hahah yah it is me."

"Thought so, was just about to call. You still up for tonight?"

"Yeah sure." I said trying to sound all serious. Not the energetic, silly mood I was in.

"Good. I'll pick you up at 5, okay?"

"Yeah that's fine. Love you."

"Love you too."

I looked at the clock and it was only 7.30. How was I going to waste time? I ran into my room and pulled on some jeans and a black vest top with my red and blue checkered shirt. I needed to decide what I was wearing later.

After about, what felt like, half an hour of searching I found a gorgeous deep blue dress that was a fairly tight fit and I knew it would look great with my leather jacket and black converse. I didn't think it looked like I'd tried to hard but if you've seen what I usually wear you might. I wasn't bothered though, Dally will take me as who I am. Won't he?

After 5 hours of what felt like torture it was 3.15 and I felt like I could start getting ready. I walked over to my bed and undressed. Then I pulled on my skin colour tights and dark blue dress. I walked, well practically tripped, over to my dressing table and brushed through my nightmare of what you call hair. Once all the knots were out I grabbed a piece of hair from the front, both sides, and pulled it back. I gripped it in place and then put in my navy blue bow.

Makeup was the part which took the most time. I kept trying to do eyeliner but every time one side would look better than the other. Then I'd keep putting on too much lipstick. In the end I put on a little bit of black eyeshadow on my eyelids and eyeliner on my water lines, also some mascara on my eyelashes. To top it off I put on a light, but rather bright, pink lipstick.

It was 4.25 when I was done so I sat on my bed for a bit and read 'Of Mice and Men' by John Steinbeck. At 4.55 I pulled on my converse and laced up my shoelaces, grabbed my leather jacket and ran to sit on the porch.

Dally pulled up in Buck's truck bang on 5. His hair heavily greased back, as always, and he was wearing jeans with a blue top and his only pair of shoes, converse. "Hi gorgeous." He said as he held out his hand and kissed me.

"Hi." I said back, I thought I sounded rather blunt and I must have because Dally looked me in the eye and said,

"You okay, baby?"

"Yah, I'm fine." I said smiling.

"Good come on then." He said running with me to Buck's truck. He opened the door for me, like a proper gentleman.

"Are we actually going in legally?" I asked Dally, thinking he'd say no.

"Yah. My treat for you," he smiled at me and carried on. "I know you like following the law." I laughed. I did like following the law but what was so wrong with that?

"Oh my god!" I screamed. I put my hands into a gun position. "Who are you and what have you done with Dallas Winston?!" He hit me lightly on the arm.

"Oh shut up." He whispered.

It didn't take long to get into the drive in. We parked at some gas station though so we didn't have to pay extra, but we actually did pay. We found our seats and Dally went off to get some cokes and popcorn. He came back and we watched the film for a bit. Holding hands and throwing popcorn into each others mouths every once in a while.

When the movie was about to finish Iona, Dally's ex-girlfriend, walked up to us. "Hey Dal." She said whilst playing with her hair. Dally recognised her wispy voice, more like stupid if you ask me, straight away. His eyes shot up and he gazed at her mouth open. She was the perfect stereotype of a girl. With the perfect curly blonde hair and the thin yet curvy figure and the bright, bright blue eyes.

"Iona!" He exclaimed as he shot up. I coughed a fake cough to show I was still there. He heard it and said to me "One minute, Asha."

"Yeah this'll only take a minute. Then y'all can get back to whatever this is if y'all wants." Ugh her accent.

Then you'll never get what she did. I might as well tell you. She quickly pulled Dally in and started making out with him. I expected Dally to push away but he didn't. He kissed back.

I shot up and started running. I was sobbing how could he do this to me? I should know better. 'Bad boys' don't stay for 'good girls' like me. The only problem is 'good girls' always fall for 'bad boys.' I heard Dally yell behind me, "Asha! Come back! It didn't mean anything!" I wasn't going back though. He'd ruined it. He kissed her back. It wasn't all her.
