Tangled Up In Me

Chapter 19

Wedding Day

Molly's P.O.V

It has been six months since Keith was born and it was my wedding day. I sat in a small room looking in the mirror. Johnny stood over me and looked into my eyes through the mirror. He grinned and stood back up.

"What do you think Johnny?" I asked as he put my veil on my head.

"You look good. I mean… You look beautiful… I mean…"

"Thanks Johnny." I said standing up and giving him a small peck on the cheek.

"Well I need to get into my tux. I'll tell your father to come over here when he's ready." Johnny told me, walking to the door.

I looked in the long mirror on the wall and smiled. That day was going to be perfect.

Dally had Keith with him.

Poor Ponyboy got forced into being the ring barer.

Sodapop was Darry's best man and my maid of honor was Christina.

My bridesmaids were Abby and Mother.

There was a knock at my door and I went to open it, but I couldn't.

"Molly, it's me." Darry said through the door.

"Oh… Do you need something?" I asked leaning on the door.

"No, not really… I just wanted to talk to you before the wedding." He answered.

I smiled, "Well what do you want to talk about?" I asked.

"I don't know. When the wedding's over are we taking Keith or leaving him, Ponyboy, and Sodapop with Dally?" Darry asked.

"We'll take them home…" I said, "and go out ourselves."

"Sounds good to me. Well, your dad's here and he's looking at me weird. I'm going back to the other room to make sure Ponyboy's ready."

My dad came in and looked me over. He smiled and hugged me. "Oh I can't believe I'm losing my baby so soon."

"You're not losing me. I'm just starting my own family sooner that expected." I told him picking up my bokay of pink roses.

"Well I think it's time to go…give you away to my boss…" He said holding out his arm for me.

We stood in the front waiting for the music to start. When it did we walked into the beautiful hall.

People looked at me from there seats and when we got to the front Keith reached up to me.

I stopped and looked down to him, smiling. I picked my son up and looked at Darry, who grinned.

When I got to him he took Keith and gave him to Sodapop.

The wedding went over great and when I tossed the bouquet Christina caught it and got a smirk from Dally. She blushed and smiled.

At the wedding party Darry and I were passed around a lot, between old people, young people, and my parents. We didn't really get to dance together.

Finally when the last song came I got to dance with him.

The song started and I smiled. The song was the one that was playing when he asked me to marry him, It Had to be You.

"I love you Molly…" Darry said as we danced.

"I love you Darrel." I told him, smiling.

"Hey, that's Darry to you."

"Then you have to call me Mrs. Curtis."

The End

Epilogue

"Keith! Keith get down here!" I yelled from the kitchen.

My seven year old son ran in and sat down. He crossed his arms and looked at his school books. "Mommy… I don't wanna go to school." He wined.

I set a plate of breakfast in front of him. "Why is that?" I asked, sitting across from him. I looked at his greased back hair that resembled his fathers.

"People are mean to me. They call me a poor, white trash Greaser. What's wrong with being a Greaser?" He asked.

"Nothing." Darry said from the door.

I watched Darry go over and kneel in front of Keith.

"Keith, there is nothing wrong with being a Greaser. I'm a Greaser, Uncle Sodapop's a Greaser." Darry explained.

"Even Uncle Dally?"

"Especially Uncle Dally." Darry said smiling. "Now eat and I'll drive you to school." Darry said, getting up.

I smiled at him and started on the dishes.

Darry put his arms around me. "I think someone upstairs wants her mommy…" He whispered, letting me go.

I put everything down and walked upstairs to Colleen, my two year old baby girl.

She was crying and I picked her up. "Shhh… Colleen what is the matter?" I asked, rocking her. "Would you like to go out with Mommy to see Uncle Ponyboy? Does that sound nice? Do you want to see Patty?"

Patty was a baby Ponyboy and Johnny adopted only five years before. Patty loved Colleen as much as everyone else did.

It turned out to be a great life with the Greasers for me.

Okay… I'm going to make a sequel about the kids and about Christina and Abby.
