You liked Ponyboy Curtis. Ponyboy Curtis liked you. Thing was, you both didn't know that you guys liked each other. You and Ponyboy became friends when you were paired to do a science project together. You both automatically clicked when you realized you two had the same passion of the same books, movies and music. You first meet the gang when you went over to Pony's house for the first time. Anyways, back to the love and affection shit. The only person who knew you liked Ponyboy was your other best friend Steve Randle; the whole gang except you knew that Ponyboy liked you. But you two were as clueless as the other when it came to figuring it out you guys liked each other. It was a hot summer Saturday and everyone was over at the Curtis's house, so you decided to see if the gang wanted to get ice cream; to which they all agreed. Even Dally. You were all walking and talking when out of nowhere, you tripped.
(Y/n): So yeah, I was thinking that maybe Wedn- ahhh!
You tripped and braced yourself for the hard impact your face was about to make on the hard concrete sidewalk; but it never happened. You opened your eyes to find out you were face to face with the sidewalk. You felt yourself being pulled up and you spun around to see that it was Ponyboy who caught you from falling.
Ponyboy: You okay (Y/n)?
(Y/n): Yeah, thanks.
Pony: No problem.
Two-Bit: Wait! Guys! Hold up! The young ones are getting intimate with each other!
Darry: What?!
Pony: No, we're not. (Y/n) almost busted her face on the sidewalk.
Two-Bit: Why am I not surprised? She's no smarter than a piece of chalk.
(Y/n): Hey! At least I can read!
Two-Bit: Do you want me to knock your teeth lose?
Pony: Guys, knock it off. Let's just keep going.
You all continued walking when out of nowhere you felt Steve's big and muscular bicep wrap around your shoulders.
Steve: (Y/n), I'm confused.
(Y/n): Why?
Steve: Why don't you just tell him already?
(Y/n): It's not that simple Steve! You have Evie! Soda has Sandy! Dally has Sylvie and Two-Bit has Kathy! It's not as easy as you think it is so stop bugging ME ABOUT IT!
Steve took his arm off of you and you saw the whole gangs eyes on you.
Dally: (Y/n), what the hell are you talking about?
(Y/n): Nothing…
Your eyes started welling up with tears as you turned around and began walking in the opposite direction from where the gang was walking. You wiped your face and heard the sound of footsteps behind you, to which you recognized to be Ponyboy after he put his hand on your shoulder and spin you around.
Pony: (Y/n)! Where ya going?
(Y/n): Just get away from me!
You turned away to see Pony had a look of defeat on his face. You frowned and took Pony's hand off of your shoulder, gently and caustically.
(Y/n): Sorry Pony. Didn't know it was you.
Pony: Hey, what's wrong?
(Y/n): Nothing…
Pony: (Y/n), you know you can tell me anything.
(Y/n): I know, nothing's wrong.
Pony: (Y/n)…
(Y/n): I like you Pony! Okay? There I said it! I know you don't feel the same way as I do about us so I'll just go and stop bugging you.
You ran away from Pony and the gang with tears rolling down your cheeks. You soon heard the sound of footsteps behind you.
Pony: (Y/n)! Wait!
You ignored Ponyboy's command and continued. It wasn't long before Pony caught up to you and tackled you to the ground. He did track and was really fast. You both sat up and you spit some grass out of your mouth.
Pony: Sorry…
(Y/n): It's fine.
Pony: (Y/n), you just didn't give me a chance to talk to you. Listen, I like you too. I've liked you for a while now, okay? I was just really scared to talk to you about it. I do feel the same way about it. Alright? I like you a lot too.
You sat, dumbstruck, looking into Ponyboy's greenish-grey eyes with your mouth hanging wide open. You smiled, and scooted closer to Pony and he put his arms around you. You both sat there, hugging and cuddling.
Two-Bit: Well, well, well, what do we have here?
You and Pony looked behind yourselves and saw the gang. You both chuckled.
Steve: See (Y/n)? Now was that so hard?
(Y/n): Well, if that was that easy, what about this?
You leaned into Pony and kissed him to which he happily kissed you back.
Johnny: I'm outta here.
Dally: Same with me Johnnycake.
You and Pony laughed and pulled away and saw Two-Bit and Steve reenacting the kiss and teasing you and Ponyboy. You leaned your head on Pony's shoulder.
Pony: So, does this mean you'll be my girl?
(Y/n): What do you think?
Pony: I think yes…
(Y/n): Well that was gonna be my answer too.
