I yawned as I made her way to the Curtis's later in the afternoon a Saturday. I walked into the house and wasn't surprised to find the whole gang there and Ponyboy reading a book. "Hey Sierra" they all greeted mildly and Darry kept quiet and sipped his coffee after nodding tome.

Pony glanced then kept reading "I'm beginning to think you live here" he muttered to me.

"It's fun here, though and I never get to do anything on Saturdays" I complained.

"You've got money, go to the movies or something" he answered placing a book mark in the book and setting it on the table.

"But… those boys keep hounding me" I answered and Ponyboy sat up straighter and raised an eyebrow.

"What boys?" he asked.

"Just a bunch of rich boys who think they can get a date by having a nice ride and haircut" I answered then smirked "which is something you lack, Pone" I added ruffling his reddish brown hair then his face turned a red that I had never seen before.

He moved my hand off his head gently looking serious suddenly "did the boys try to do anything to you?" he asked, his eyes seemed so much brighter suddenly when they flared with slight anger.

"Nah, just some catcalls" I replied gently and he seemed to relax his shoulders

"If you wanna go then I'll go with you, okay?" he replied and I beamed at him.

"Someone's gotta make sure you don't get into trouble, right?" he added turning his head away but I kept my smile knowing that what he said didn't always line up with what he meant.

"Then let's go now" I told him excitedly.

"Now?" he asked incredulous and I pulled him up suddenly and I guess I went too fast because pretty quick we were nose to nose. I blushed and the same happened to him but I quickly laughed nervously then pulled him out the door.

"I'll bring him home by 10:00" I told Darry.

"Keep him longer!" Soda yelled grinning and I wondered to myself, when did Ponyboy get more important than Soda?

I brushed the thought to the side and we left for the theatre "perfect timing, the credits for it just started" I said and he rolled his eyes as I pulled him into the theatre.

Watching the movie was fun and Ponyboy had a lot of attention span for the whole movie like I did. After the movie we walked out of the theatre and he seemed suddenly nervous.

"What's wrong, Ponyboy?" I asked turning to him, he had forgotten his jacket and was shivering but that didn't seem to be the only problem.

"Nothing I just have bad memories about things happening from theatres" he answered and stiffened when I suddenly hugged him. "What are you-"

"Sh… those boys are here" I whispered in his ear spotting them behind him "ready for a make-out fake-out?" I asked and his eyes widened but I didn't care and kissed him.

My brain kind of froze there and somewhere along the kiss, it became real. Suddenly, his arms were around my waist and we were both really kissing, like, with tongue. When we pulling away the boys were gone and we were both breathless and blushing.

"W-what was that?" he asked, his cheeks burning as much as mine.

"It's called a make-out fake-out, to escape confrontations, awkwardness is the best tool because they just left" I answered.

We were both silent when I blurted "please tell me you liked that as much as I did."

"Yeah, wanna go again?" he asked and he pulled me in again and there it was again. I think we must have kissed for hours that night because we finally went home at midnight, but each time it just got better.

That night, I couldn't sleep, I just kept thinking about the kiss. His lips, his toned arms, his eyes, his chest and oh god, him. When I finally did get to sleep I couldn't wait long enough for church to be over and I asked dad to drop me off at the Curtis's.

I waved dad good bye and practically ran into the house and I didn't care if I still had a blue dress on. "Where's Ponyboy?" I asked trying to keep my stomach butterflies under control. Dear god, I think I'm addicted to him.

"His room but good luck waking him u-" I was already in his room before he got to finish his sentence and I shook Ponyboy awake and when he opened his eyes, I kissed him, I couldn't wait any longer.

"Mmm…" he retaliated the kiss as expected and it was better than anything I had tasted.

When he parted "when the hell…" Soda started.

"Did that happen?" Steve added.

"Last night" I answered.

"I think she works much better than coffee" Darry added and I glared at them all and they left then sat on Ponyboy's bed.

"I think I'm addicted to you" I whispered and he bit his lip which was a little swollen from all the kissing we did last night.

"Me too, I mean I'm kind of addicted too" he answered.

"But that's just hormones right? Just a reaction of chemicals and all that Sigmund Freud stuff" I replied talking in a shaky breath, this had never happened to me ever.

"I don't know, I've had a few girlfriends but I didn't feel like…" he trailed off and he didn't have to finish his sentence because I already understood.

I got up and then shut the door so that no one would hear "Pony, I feel like if I don't have you then I'll drive myself crazy, seriously I tried everything but I can't get rid of the jitters" I whispered.

PONYBOY

I knew exactly what she meant, after we left, I tried to fall asleep but for a long time I couldn't. I think I just about drove Darry up the wall with my pacing around the living room. This was definitely a whole lot of lust and it raged through my body like wild fire.

"Yeah, same" I answered, for the first time in the past few years I actually felt lost. My heart beat inside my chest faster than a metronome and felt like it would burst and I couldn't calm down.

Now I knew exactly what people meant by sexual tension because I couldn't even look at her without my heart threatening to explode. She looked beautiful today, her lips were pink but not with lip stick and her medium length was tied into a ponytail with her bangs framing her face.

Her dress was one of things that made him blush though, it came up a light bit above her knees and though it flared out. Her legs were smooth and long and he avoided staring too much because her exposed collar bone and neck was kinda turning him on.

"So what do we do?" he asked.

"Be my boyfriend and we go from there?" she asked.

"What do we say to people who ask? A greaser with a nice girl like you?" I asked.

"If they ask say that I'm in lust with you" she replied grinning and I sighed and leaned away when she crawled closer then gave in to another one of those more-addicted-than-candy kisses.

When we both went into the living everyone was looking at us like aliens. "What happened last night?" Darry asked looking slightly afraid to ask.

"A make-out fake-out gone wrong" I answered sarcastically then stiffened when I saw Sierra place a cherry in her mouth from the jar of them we bought. I ignored the burn of a blush come to face.

"So you guys are going out now?" Soda asked carefully.

"Yeah" I answered.

"Just like that?" Steve asked skeptically "uh any reason why so suddenly?" he added.

"I'm in lust with him at the moment" Sierra answered then laughed when Two-bit pulled a grin at her slightly lame pun.

"Hmm… use condoms and birth control" Steve told me with a blank face and I glared daggers at him.

"Kissing satisfies me for now" Sierra replied.

"And careful not to bite his tongue" Steve added and my anger boiled and glaring didn't resolve my problem so I tackled him and we wrestled.

"Say uncle!" I yelled.

"Nooooo" Steve groaned and I tightened my hold and hold his arm at a bad angle.

"Say it!" I growled.

"Ughh…" he groaned.

"Now!" I shouted.

"FINE, FINE, I GIVE! UNCLE, UNCLE!"
