The fun tune of Mickey Mouse filled the living room as the rusty haired greaser sat on the couch. Today started the first day of spring break, so he slightly wondered why Darry had worried about Pony's homework yesterday. However he learned not to question to elder male, it just wasn't smart. An opening door sounded through the house as Pony stepped out of his room and walked into the living room. Sitting next to Two-bit, he looked at him closely causing the older male to cock an eyebrow.
"What on earth are you looking for?"
"Well there is no sign of a black eye, so Dally must not have hit you,"
Two-bit chuckled. "Well I was getting some dirty looks when he thought the rest of the guys weren't looking,"
"Awesome," Pony chuckled.
"You are one mean little person, but I can't blame you in the slightest,"
Pony smiled and stretched out, leaning against the back of the couch.
"Well I'd love to stay and chat, but my mom needs me today," Two-bit said, standing up.
"Ok, I'll see you later then,"
Pony got up and headed into the kitchen to find something to eat. Just after checking one of the cabinets, the front door opened and closed.
"Well that was fast Two-bit," Pony called.
"What is going on with you and that clown?" A rough voice from behind him said, making him jump.
Turning around Dally was standing there with him arms crossed, his blue eyes blazing with fire.
"What's it to you?"
"I just want to know,"
"I don't think its any of your business," Pony said, trying to swallow the lump that was starting to form in his throat.
Dally made a huffing noise low in his throat. "Well it's a bit obvious now who took your virginity now isn't it,"
"Oh really?" Ponyboy dug his nails into his hands to stop them from shaking.
"Yea and who else have you slept with huh?"
"Why does it fucking matter?"
"It-It doesn't," Dally growled, opened his mouth one more time then shut it with a snap.
Turning on his heels, Dally walked out of the house, closing the door with a loud slam. Pony put his hand over his heart to try and stop it from pounding so hard against his ribcage. Moving to sit on the couch, Pony put his head in his hands and sighed deeply.
Why did he Dally have to make things so complicated?
He was still contemplating this a few hours later when Two-bit came back in and looked at him with that knowing look.
"What happened?" Two-bit asked, sitting on the couch next to Pony.
Pony moved and laid his head in Two-bit's lap as he told him what Dally did, the older male frowning slightly.
"I see,"
"Why does he have to be so god damn frustrating?"
"It's Dally," Two-bit said, with half a smile.
"Well he's an ass hole,"
"Where did you pick up all this cursing from?" Two-bit cocked an eyebrow.
"Hmmm I wonder,"
"Don't get sarcastic with me little man,"
"Scuse me?"
"You heard me," Two-bit laughed.
Pony tried to look insulted but ended up laughing with him and every time they tired to stop, they would just start all over again. They were still laughing when the gang walked in just a few minutes later.
"What is so funny?" Soda asked, cocking an eyebrow as him and Steve sat on the other couch.
"N-n-nothing," Pony stammered out, still snickering.
"Doesn't sound like nothing," Johnny said, tilting his head as he sat by Steve's feet.
Dally sat down on the couch next to Steve, trying to keep his anger under control at seeing Pony's head in Two-bit's lap.
"Please tell me you didn't give him any beer," Darry said, sitting in his chair.
"I am not that stupid," Two-bit stated, making Pony crack up more.
"Keep telling your self that," Pony laughed, making Two-bit fake huff.
There was near silence, save for Pony snickering, when Two-bit smacked said male on the chest.
"Did you forget you were going to ask Darry something?"
"Huh?" Pony asked, pure confusion on his face.
"Wow, you really don't remember anything do you? How many times was he dropped on his head as a baby?" Two-bit asked, looking at Darry.
"You're real funny Two-bit," Pony mumbled.
"None that I know of and why don't you just ask me since he doesn't remember,"
"He was going to ask to spend a few nights at my house, get away from Soda's snoring," Two-bit cracked a wide grin over at said male.
"I do NOT snore," Soda said, crossing his arms.
"Sure sure, then there are people with chainsaws in our room every night," Pony said, smirking.
Soda made a hmmpf noise, causing Pony to start snickering again.
"So what do you say Dare, get the laughing maniac out of the house for a few days?"
"I don't see why not, just no beer and no getting in trouble," Darry said pointing at Pony.
"Sir, yes sir," Two-bit said, saluting Darry, making Pony start laughing harder.
"Just take him away before he laughs himself to death," Darry said.
"Go get your bags packed you," Two-bit said, pushing at Pony.
The younger male got up, still snickering and headed into his room, trying not to smile bigger at the look on Dally's face. After getting his stuff packed up and headed back into the living room, where Two-bit was standing by the door.
"After you," He said, motioning to the door.
"Bye Soda, Bye Darry," He said, giving then both kisses on their cheeks real quick.
"Bye Pony," They said.
He waved at Johnny, Steve and half at Dally, then was ushered out the door by Two-bit. Getting into Two-bit's car, Pony looked over at the rusty haired male, giving him a weird look.
"What?" Two-bit asked, heading to his house.
"Why are you doing this for me?" Pony asked, leaning his head against the head rest, still looking at Two-bit.
"Because I want you to be happy and I love getting under Dally skin,"
"Thanks, I think?"
Two-bit chuckled lightly and ruffled Pony's hair, still driving to his house, making Pony swat at his hand.
"I still say you're going to get a black eye,"
"And I still say it's going to be worth it,"
"You are crazy,"
"Yup,"

Next chapter of Spilled perfume.
I hope it lives up to expectations.
Will Two-bit get that black eye? Will Dally just admit his feelings? Will I stop asking questions that only I can answer?
Who knows.
