Opposites attract - Dally Winston

Chapter 41:

I grew with confusion. I looked at Dallas who also had his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"So I'm not pregnant?" I ask relieved, the doctor shakes her head no, "no. I'm so sorry" she says hurt. I sigh in relief and feel all the nerves and worries flow out of me. I could finally breath.

She must've thought that we wanted the baby. I don't know why, but she must've thought that way, or she wanted us to be teenage parents. I don't know, but I was so happy that I wasn't pregnant.

I let out a huge smile. The doctor gives me a weird look, and then realization came across her face, "oh you two didn't want a baby" she says, "yeah, no, we're sixteen and seventeen" I saw pointing at me then to Dally.

The girl lets out a breath "that makes more sense, I just didn't know because when I saw you two, you looked like such a cute couple" she says smiling.

I blush and look at the floor, "well thank you Dr. Jameson" I say smiling looking up from the floor and starting to stand up. Dally stood up too and followed me out the door, "have a nice day!" she says as I open and walk out, "thanks you two!" I yell as we turn the corner.

We walk out of the hospital and immediately turn to hug each other, "I was so scared" I say, my voice muffled from Dally's jacket, "when she looked at me like that, I thought I was pregnant" I say chuckling in relief, "yeah, I did too" Dally says finally letting go of the tight embrace.

"Now lets go tell the gang! I am so looking forward to not getting an ass whooping by Darry!" I say starting to skip along the road, "I don't think he would give you one if you were pregnant" Dally says walking faster to try and catch up to me.

It looked odd with me skipping in excitement and relief when so many people were running to and from the hospital crying and in pain, I felt bad, but I felt so relieved, like a giant mountain had been taken off my shoulders.

The walk back to the Curtis home was a silent one, but not like on the way there. It was a nice silence, finally feeling like you can breath freely.

Before we reached the Curtis's front door I stopped Dally, "what?" he asks confused, "let's prank them" I say with a sly smirk on my face, "you know. That sounds like the worst, but yet the best idea ever" he says returning my smirk, "let's do it" he says reading my mind on what to do.

"Okay punch me" I say.

He instantly gave me a confused look, "why?" he asks, "because I need to cry, they need to really fall into this trap, I need to not just cry, but bawl" I say trying my best to convince him.

"Gracie, I'm not going to punch you to make you cry, you do that enough" he says trying to hide a grin, "but for some reason I can't do it now. I'm trying, but nothing's coming out!" I say squeezing my eyes desperately to make them red, and teary.

"I'm not hurting you" he says in a strict voice that honestly shocked me.

"Fine I'll do it my self coward" I say bringing my hand to my cheek and then slapping it. Dally quickly grabbed my wrist, "you are honestly so stupid" he says rolling his eyes, "I like to call it committed" I say showing a toothy grin.

"Well I need to cry, and you're not letting me get hurt, so what do we do?" I ask hopelessly.

"Think about your pet puppy that got hit by a car in front of your eyes" he says shrugging his shoulders.

My heart felt a sting of pain from the mentioning of my old pet puppy Ralph who was to young to be taken.

I could feel water fill my eyes slowly as I replied the scene in my mind, "keep going it's working" I say focusing on thinking, "how your abusive dad never let you burry it, and you had to leave it dead on the road" he adds. 

I could tell by his voice that it was hurting him to say these things that make me sad, but I needed him too, "be ruthless" I say, my voice cracking as I felt a single tear fall.

Dally took a deep breath.

"say it" I say

"He was to young to go" he says 

I felt the tears brim all around my eyes, but I held them the best I could till we got to the Curtis house, "perfect" I say.

We open the door and are met with everyone rushing over to us. I then started to let the tears fall. They all looked at me, and stopped in there tracks so they wouldn't crowd me.

"How'd it go" Soda asks quietly after a few moments of silence, "I-" I was about to say before letting out more tears, and pushing my way through the crowd and taking a spot on the couch.

The guys all looked at me then to Dallas with a worried expression, "guys I'm-" I say with a shaky voice as I add in a voice crack. 

Soda immediately wraps me in a hug, "Gracie we'll help you through this you are not alone, we'll work things out, Steve and I will work extra shifts so we can help support you. We'll do anything and everything we can to help you out" he says in a soft tone.

I tried to hide my smile, but I failed, "thanks Soda" I say sniffling. He gives me a soft smile then one by one they all gave me hugs.

Once they were finished they all stood in front of me as if still in awe.

"Guys" I say trying to contain my laughter for a few more seconds.

"What?" they all ask in unison.

"I'm not pregnant. It was a prank" I say with a smile while getting up off the couch.

Before anyone could say anything Darry slammed his fist down on a small table causing it to break, "don't scare us like that again" he says while walking over to me wrapping me in his huge muscular arms he just used to demolish a table. 

"Sorry"I say, but it only comes out as a mumble.

Soon the rest of the gang joins in and it's a giant group hug, me being the centre of attention. We stayed there for a solid ten minutes not saying anything, and it made me think.

I have the best family.
