Cupcake's POV

My name is Cupcake Melody Curtis.

Sure my name is original but my dad was an original person.

I ask people to just call me just melody, at least that is somewhat normal.

I'm the sister of Ponyboy, Sodapop, and Darrel (Darry) Curtis. I'm Soda's twin sister, only a little younger by a few minutes, but Darry still treats me like the baby of the gang. I have long straight blond hair (that I always curl, so it looks like I have natural curly hair) and brown eyes, like Soda. I'm very thin, and I don't care much about fashion.

Since I'm a girl people underestimate me and my strength. That is why Darry is obsessed with me not walking out alone because I have more of a chance to get jumped by socs.

I work at the diner next to the DX so Soda always makes sure to walk me home. Me and Soda are very close cause we are twins. He calls me his baby sister even though I'm only a few minutes younger than him and Ponyboy should be considered the baby.

What really is strange and I find really irritating is that Pony is my little brother, though he treats me like I'm the little sister just cause I'm like the gang's little sister. I actually am a little jealous of Pony. Soda used to share a room with me when Ponyboy was really little, and he always played with me and comforted me when I had nightmares but now its all Pony. I still love Pony cause he always shares his books with me, and I can go to him for advice.

Our relationship with Darry is kind of weak. We used to be okay before our mom and dad died, but now I guess that he has to take all the responsibilities he became cold.

My mom and dad just died a few months ago. During that time we always used to cry and support each other because me and Pony were the sensitive ones that took it hard. Pony still gets nightmares about it. I do too, but it seems that everyone is too concerned with Pony.

Me and Pony are best friends with Johnny.

I've known him ever since I was a little kid.

In the past year I found out that I liked him, more than a friend. So now whenever he asks if I want to go to the movies with him I get all hyper and I start stuttering and I cant think straight.

I cant tell if he likes me back, it would probably ruin or friendship anyway.

Well enough of introductions, lets get this story started!
