PONYBOY CURTIS
the two of you are the closest in the gang, being the closest in age and him being a protective older brother to you
he doesn’t always feel the closest to his siblings because him and darry are always arguing, soda’s in the middle and doesn’t interfere anymore
but you’re always one to comfort pony after he gets into a heated argument with his oldest brother
he helps you with homework a lot since you’re not far behind him, he helps you study and get super high grades so darry isn’t on your ass for shitty grades
pony also reads you books when you’re stressed, it’s also just something he enjoys doing in your presence
quality time means a lot to him because his brothers are never home, he’ll read a magazine or do homework in a room with you, it gives him a sense of safety
JOHNNY CADE
the two of you aren’t exactly the closest in age but you talk to each other about everything
you and johnny hang out at the lot and sometimes fall asleep there, when you wake up, you direct him to your house so he can sleep there too
sometimes he’ll give you little gifts for fun, remembers a lot of things you tell him
if you talk about a book or item you want once, he’ll get it as soon as he can
he really appreciates your friendship and will do anything to keep it and strengthen it
probably let’s you borrow his switchblade even though he always has it on him, has backups too
SODAPOP CURTIS
he’s the most annoying but loving brother to you, always asking you if you have a partner yet and teasing you if you do
“ooooh.. who were you hangin’ out with today, y/n? you like them?”
“soda, i’ve been friends with them for years!”
“yeah, but do you like them?”
he’s the embodiment of the trend ‘i know love is real because (name) is real and they are full of it’
soda makes sure you have a lot of attention and love, doesn’t necessarily try to replace your parents but is somewhat nurturing to you
he doesn’t rant to you often because he knows it can be overwhelming, you’re just a kid, as he puts it and shouldn’t be dealing with others problems
sometimes he’ll take you to the DX after school so you can gossip and you can learn about working
DARRY CURTIS
darry’s your eldest brother and is extremely protective of you, always checks up on you and asking about your day
he has the same expectations for you and ponyboy, he checks over your homework but is calmer with you
he wants you to be with some sort of guardian wherever you go, even if you’re walking down the street for fun
he knows it’s not the safest for you to be alone, especially at night
because he doesn’t have the best relationship with his brothers, he makes cake with you more often than he does with the others
he does not let you participate in rumbles, he says it’s way too dangerous for you to fight
DALLAS WINSTON
he fucking hates kids so it’s a surprise he enjoys your presence
you remind him a bit of himself, you’re a bit of an ‘outcast in the outcasts’ because you’re the youngest and told you can’t do anything
so dally teaches you how to live in case you ever get put on the streets, teaches you what to do in the worst case scenarios
he’s hard on you though, it’s tough love and he can get really frustrated if you get hurt or in trouble because he’s taught you how to protect yourself
steals random stuff for you, most of the time it’s candy or random sweets like popcorn from the drive in, sometimes it’s a drink
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
you remind him of his younger sister, he feels obligated to protect you in some way
most of the time, soda and darry are working so they aren’t home most of the time, pony’s hanging out with johnny so keith watches over you
sometimes he calls himself your babysitter because he thinks it’s funny, it’s even better that he knows you’re fully capable of taking care of yourself
he’ll tell you super inappropriate jokes and when darry’s there, he’ll smack him on the back of the head
“two, knock it off. she doesn’t needa hear that stuff!”
“i didn’t even do anything, super—“
he steals stuff for you too, whether it’s something related to your studies or a random item you want for some reason
STEVE RANDLE
originally didn’t want to be around you, he doesn’t want to be around ponyboy and you’re with him all the time
but eventually, steve warms up to you and lets you hang out with him and the gang sometimes
he’s actually pretty smart and not many people expect that from him, he helps you with homework even though he can get frustrated at times if you don’t understand
if you’re into cars, expect him to teach you all about them and for him to invite you to the DX
maybe he lets you help him fix some of the cars, of course you won’t get paid money, instead snacks he gives you for free
soda will come up to you in the morning as you’re barely awake, talking to you
“steve said to come to the DX after school, gonna teach you some stuff about cars.”
this is gonna sound Rlly funny/ridiculous, but... Gang w reader from 2024??? Somehow????? LMAO. i jus thought itd b funny. LOLOL
authors note: sorry i’m doing requests late! i have many requests and i’ve been busy. also i have 100 followers!! this post is gonna have a lot of brainrot words so sorry about that LMAO. sorry this post is really short again!! i hope you enjoy!! 💗

warnings: cussing, brainrot slang, alcohol, slightly suggestive but as a joke
PONYBOY CURTIS
you and ponyboy were in his room, reading stupidly romantic books as a joke
the two of you were close to tears due to laughing, both of your stomachs hurting because the book was so cringey
“oh my god! this reminds me of this one tiktok, so this girl was like ‘i think i made the new booktok anthem—‘ wait i told you about booktok, right?” you paused after talking
“yes, yes, very weird. continue on!” your boyfriend said, smiling widely at you
“so basically, the girl was singing, ‘i’m looking for a new book boyfriend. billionaire. six five, brown eyes.’ and would go on and on with the song!! literally everyone made fun of her and she responded to a hate comment, but then a comment on that video was like ‘we love an unbothered queen!!’” laughing at the end of what you said, ponyboy hunching over, dropping the book and wheezing
since he’s a teenage boy, he picked up on your vocabulary very quickly, using words like ‘sigma’ ‘grimace shake’ ‘gyatt’ (but only to you) ‘rizz’ etc
once he was saying those words too much and his brother, darry, got annoyed and said, “pony… just, stop saying those words. please, i’m getting a headache.”
your boyfriend responded with, “you’re such a beta, can’t handle a sigma rizzler like me.” a proud look on his face, darry sighing and walking to a different room
ponyboy thinks you’re the funniest person ever and even started using your vocab when talking to others or about something, and people would stare at him weirdly because they didn’t know what he was talking about, or what the words meant
JOHNNY CADE
you and johnny were outside, staring at the sunset together as a date
he was in your arms, feeling protected by you, you ran your fingers through his hair while the two of you were softly talking to each other
“i love you like how baby gronk loves livvy dunne…” you said with a smile on your face, knowing he’d think it’s funny and would laugh
he let out a loud chuckle, continuing to giggle multiple seconds after
then johnny sat up next to you, saying, “look over there!!” so you gasped, looking to where he was pointing
he lightly grabbed your jaw and moved it towards his direction, giggling when the two of you were making weird faces once you saw each other
you would always tell him that from your time, people would joke and do that gesture all the time but never in a serious way
he really loved the little diy gifts you would make him, telling him you would watch tiktok’s about cute cards to give your partner or friend
along with the pink bows you would put in your hair, sometimes asking him to tie them into your hair, telling him that coquette became back in style in your time
although others would stare at you on the street because they weren’t used to your style, you could care less
he knew you were so unique and perfect, so he would try to show you as much affection as he could to make you stay
SODAPOP CURTIS
“no one can rizz me up as well as you can, sodagyatt…” talking to your boyfriend in a joking tone
“ooh… yes, pookie… talk to me like that… maybe i’ll get you a grimace shake…” he replied, smirking and leaning in for a kiss
you giggled and lightly grabbed his face, pulling him in for a kiss, his hands on your waist
after the two of you pulled away, you looked into each others eyes before bursting out laughing, falling onto soda and curling up into a ball, your stomach hurting
he picked up on your words very quickly, specifically using the word ‘rizz’ a lot after you told him he had a lot
he began to call his brother, ponyboy, ‘ponygyatt’ because he thought it was funny
whenever one of his brothers did something embarrassing, he would tell them “your aura is decreasing. minus seven hundred points, darry.”
but he absolutely loved your sense of style, the way you would dress because it was from your time, but from his time, everyone wore denim and flannels
DARRY CURTIS
darry, your boyfriend, was baking a chocolate cake for you and his brothers
he was measuring the flour and cocoa powder, pouring them into the bowl
his back was facing you, your jaw dropped and eyes widened, you had a wonderful idea, and went through with it
“GYATTTTTT” you yelled, and spanked your boyfriend hard, on the ass
he yelped and you ran to the other room, him chasing after you, he caught up to you and grabbed you, spanking you too while you laughed
the two of you were out of breath, so you went back to talking like nothing happened, and darry wondered ‘how does she always manage to act like nothing happened..’ but in a funny way
so both of you waked back to the kitchen, going back to work on the chocolate cake dry ingredients
he never really picked up on the slang you used, him being an adult so he never cared much to use those words
plus he had a reputation to keep up, so he didn’t want to use those words but thought when you used them, they were funny
but you made his brothers laugh, and he really appreciated that
when you would help ponyboy with his homework if darry didn’t have the time, if you were confused, you would say something like “what the sigma is this bro!?”
DALLAS WINSTON
you were at your house, making roses made of pages of a book for dally, your boyfriend
then you heard a loud ring, it was your phone, you wondered, ‘who would be calling at this hour? it’s like… 2am, man..”
so you lay on your bed, kicking your feet while you thought about dally, picked up your phone and asked, “y/n l/n, what do you need?”
“mmm… hey baby, uh, i’m at the station right now. do you think you could pick me up? i’m sorry if i woke you up…” your boyfriend said
you gasped and covered your mouth with your hand, kicking your feet and nearly screaming at the thought of seeing your boyfriend, even though the two of you saw each other four hours ago
“say on skibidi to prove that you’re in the station right now.” you teased, wanting him to be embarrassed
you heard a sigh from the other end of the line, dally muttered a “on skibidi..” you giggled, saying you’d pick him up
“love you dal!! i’ll be there in a few minutes, i promise.” you continued, and he responded with a “love you too, doll. look forward to seeing you.” you hung up
he loved how you would ask people weird or rude things, but they wouldn’t understand, once you asked someone “why do you act like a fucking millennial?” and dally had to pull you away, laughing quietly because you told him what a millennial was
or when you quietly said to him, “why is that guy built like a discord mod…?” except you didn’t tell him what that was, so he had a confused look on his face and asked, “what…?”
you’d ask him if you were his skibidi alpha pookie bear, he would sigh but nod his head, repeating what you just said
he thinks you’re really fucking funny though especially if you have brainrot humor, no one besides him understands you and he loves that
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
you and your boyfriend, keith, were at a store when you saw a couple making out
the girl looked young, too young, and the guy looked in his mid 30s, but they were acting very touchy and sexual
“erm, what the sigma..” you said in a certain voice, two-bit looking at you, shaking his head and sighing, trying to keep a straight face
then he couldn’t hold is any longer he chuckled and looked at where you were looking
he mumbled a “what the fuck…” squinting his eyes, blinking multiple times to see if he was seeing what he thought he was
what looked like a young girl full on making out with a guy who looked like he was in his mid 30s, you and your boyfriend looked at each other, eyes wide
then the two of you bursted out laughing, you unintentionally but loudly said, “bro is NOT a certified lover boy, certified—“ but two-bit covered your mouth, seeing the couple pass by you
once they passed and got to a certain distance, the two of you giggled to the point of your stomach hurting
when you started saying some slang from the 2000s, he picked up on it and started saying it too
when he started saying that type of slang around the gang, they had no idea what he meant and thought he was crazy
he even changed the lyrics to an elvis song into a ‘brainrot remix’ according to him
whenever he wanted to annoy someone because they wouldn’t know what he was doing or talking about, he would do a ‘shh’ motion, a finger up to his lips, then moving his finger to his jaw, tracing his jawline to his chin, which you taught him and called it mewing
he also did it when he wanted someone to be quiet, they would be confused so they would shut up
but when he picked up a bottle of alcohol, jokingly twitching and shaking, trying to act like he was tweaking, you said, “boy, it’s just alkahal!!” and he nearly dropped the bottle, chuckling loudly
STEVE RANDLE
“shh… i’m about to mew…” putting your pointer finger to your lips, moving it to your jaw, tracing down your jawline to your chin, doing the motion again but on the opposite side of your jaw
“the fuck are you talkin’ about?” a slight sense of concern in steve’s voice, people staring at the two of you as you walked down the street
he never really used the slang from your time, he thought it was funny but really stupid, so he never used it because he didn’t want to make people confused
he was a smart person, but of course people wouldn’t expect that because of the way he acted
besides that one time when he was with the gang, two-bit said something stupid, so steve said, “shut up you beta, you have a negative canthal tilt and a negative aura.”
they stared at him weirdly then all began to laugh, not knowing where he got those words from
but he loved your style, you had money but it was hard to find clothes from your time
authors note: i decided to post again because i feel bad for missing the post yesterday. i guess the one i posted at midnight counted for yesterday!! i get out of school super soon so i can post more yayyyy!!!
authors note: sorry the last one was kind of all over the place. i tend to ramble when i write so ill try to stay more on topic this time. in this preference, you and the characters will already be a couple :3 im also wondering if people are clicking the hashtags then they see my posts?? so if that’s what’s happening and you can see my posts when you click the hashtags please tell me because i have no idea if it’s working LMAO

warnings: mild cussing, mentions of fighting/getting jumped
PONYBOY CURTIS
you both are academic BEASTS so you’re somewhat rivals and trying to get to the top of the class
but you’re still together, it’s a healthy relationship
most of the time, you’ll actually walk him home from wherever you are since it’s safe for you to walk home on your own, but since he’s a greaser it’s not safe for him
when you met the gang they taught you how to fight in case some greasers or even some socs tried to fight you
by walking him home, you’ve actually prevented him from getting beat up
you like to take him out to get food or something he wants when he gets a good grade since he gets happy when they’re high
sometimes you’ll get lower grades than him and you two will study together, or reversed
you’ll get him a new book every time he finishes another one, by the end of the year he has a new shelf just filled with books you’ve given him
you occasionally read him to sleep when he’s having a hard time, or again reversed
he falls asleep pretty quickly when you do this and he really appreciates it
you always sit together during assemblies and choose to be each others partner in the classes you have together
if you don’t decide to do track one year you’ll go to his meets, and after you always take him out to eat since you’re proud
if he’s extra tired then he’ll ask to go home so you will
you learned how to cook so he can have big nice meals, along with baking chocolate cake when soda and darry aren’t there to make it
pony thinks you make it better than darry but will never tell him that
he really loves spending time with you and feels like you’re the first person besides johnny to really understand him
you made him think about socs in a different way too, in a good way
yall are just humans doing what you know best, some in different environments and had different parents with different parenting styles
you like to bring him to the best places in tulsa to watch the sunsets
you also get the best polaroids of the sunsets and the colors are so beautiful
JOHNNY CADE
as soon as he told the gang that he was dating someone they were excited for him, then they found out you were a soc
dally told him to break up with you without even knowing you, johnny told him to give you a chance
when johnny invited you to the curtis house to meet his friends, you brought presents for all of them since you wanted to make a good impression
you had your ways about finding what they like and don’t like
they immediately took a liking to you when you gave them presents and a kiss on johnnys cheek
you’d patch him up and give him bandaids to take home after getting beat up by socs or his parents
sometimes you’d give him money and he would use that money to get you something you’ve been wanting for a while
he’s always so thankful for everything you do for him and everything you give him
since your parents don’t really care about the differences between greasers and socs, they let johnny stay over since they know things are rough at home
sometimes they’ll take you and him out for dinner with them and you think it’s so cute
he was nervous your parents wouldn’t like him since most of the socs parents would think he’s gross
he’s always proud of you for naturally getting good grades and seeing the smile on your face when you get your report card
sometimes when he’s upset you two will cuddle in your bed or you’ll drive him to a restaurant or fast food place
he always feels bad about spending your money but you tell him not to feel bad about it since you have more
DARRY CURTIS
things got more financially stable when you came into his life
you’d help him pay groceries and the bills if he was struggling, you also helped around the house
sometimes he’ll wake up to the smell of bacon, waffles, eggs, etc and suddenly its like he doesn’t have to be the responsible one 24/7
having you in his life has improved everything, and his brothers are so thankful to have you there too
you’re like a mother to them and they’re comfortable enough to open up to you
sometimes you’ll ask him out on cute little dates randomly just so he can get a break of hard work
he’ll take the day off and get all dressed up since you told him you were taking him to a really fancy restaurant
occasionally you’ll get your nails done just for your dates and he always notices
you’ll ask him “which color is better” and he’ll say “aren’t they the same?” then you have to explain to him that one is darker than the other
he still doesn’t see the difference but chooses one anyway since he likes to see you happy
he’s literally so in love with you and how you’ll do romantic and domestic things for him
you’re so beautiful and perfect in his eyes, and sometimes he’ll stare at you and his brothers will tease him
he really loves being around you and having you by his side
you also helped him become calmer, that pony and soda have their own problems and darry yelling at them probably just makes them scared
he starts to actually communicate with them and you’ll give him gifts for completing or succeeding because why not
he’s always like “hon, you didn’t have to get me this…” but you can see he’s happy with whatever you give him
he just loves you so much and his brothers love you too but obviously not romantically
SODAPOP CURTIS
people actually think the both of you are socs, i mean they’re half right
they think soda is a soc since he’s so handsome and think you’re a soc because of your mannerisms and how you’re very beautiful
you’ll always visit him at the DX just to hang out with him
your parents love him and how he treats you so they also let him stay over at your house
sometimes when it’s sodas turn to get groceries from the store, you’ll go along with him
he just wants to be around you whenever he can
you’ll offer to pay for the groceries plus stuff he doesn’t need but instead wants
once he got a pimple and he freaked the fuck out
you bought him some cleanser, moisturizer, sunscreen and pimple patches
you taught him how to use them and when, and in which order to use them in
his pimple went away in a few days
since you’re so smart and get good grades, you’ll help pony with his homework sometimes
soda will stare at you helping him from far away, he thinks it’s adorable that you two are bonding
when the two of you are in your room, you’ll play frank sinatra and the little dippers while having a home-date with sweets :3
you two have so much fun and he even opens up to you about his problems
you offer to get him a therapist but he says it’s that bad, you tell him to talk to you if he wants to talk about it again
he legit treats you like a princess and you love it
yall are the most attractive couple EVER no one can tell if they wanna be you or be with you
DALLAS WINSTON
when he realized he liked you he knew he had to protect you with his life
he needed a break from loud and annoying girls, then he found you
you could get quiet at times and you weren’t constantly screaming and acting like an annoying 12 year old boy
you got him to steal less since you could pay for things on your own
he didn’t really listen and still stole money from other people so he could get you things
whenever he got put in prison you could always bail him out due to the money you have
if he had to serve time then you’d give him money so he could spend it and get necessities
you’ll also make diy crafts for him on your guys anniversary and his birthday
he brings you to meetups with the gang, and they love you being there with him
you spoil him rotten and he loves it
makes him feel like a princess, weirdly enough
he’ll steal money to spoil you too, pays for your nails sometimes
you told him you wanted specific flowers once and he got you flowers sometime the next week, he acted nonchalant about it but he loved the happy look on your face
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
sometimes you’re quiet but he always finds a way to bring you to tears after laughing so hard
he’s literally the funniest person you’ve ever met
he never really expected a soc to get so loud since they were normally reserved and didn’t talk to many people
anyway you brought him to fucking disneyland once and he LOVED it
you booked a hotel and everything so yall saw mickey mouse
two-bit kinda laughed at him but he seemed happy so he didn’t care
he loves traveling with you and brags about it to the gang all the time
they say it’s cool then act like they don’t care but they’re kinda jealous he gets all that stuff
they’re happy for him though
sometimes you’ll get him little mickey figurines and he’ll put them on his nightstand, sometimes even carry it with him if it’s a keychain
he never would’ve expected a soc to be so nice to someone like him
he’s really glad that you love him and you show it
STEVE RANDLE
before you two started dating he tried to avoid you at all costs
he kinda thought you’d beat up him and his friends so he just stayed away from you
anyway when you guys started dating you’d drive him to the DX
you’d give him tips just for fun even if you didn’t buy anything from him
you’d buy him all sorts of little trinkets and such just so he’d have something to mess around with
i don’t have a lot of knowledge on him bro pls bear with me LMAO
he’s almost always with soda so you kind of became his best friend naturally
you’ll buy steve food on his breaks and drive him to restaurants or fast food places and you’ll eat on a bench or in a field together
you talk about some shit that happened at work while he listens
he’ll occasionally get you some food since he knows you like sweets
then you repay him with something he’s wanted for a while that he’s been asking for
whether it’s a book or food or a trinket idk
he loves you so much and is glad soda gets along with you so well
sorry this one’s shorter! i’ll try to make the preference longer next time. i’m gonna try to post at least twice per week but if im feeling good ill try to post more 💗 thank you for reading!

as you lay in your bed, you stare up at the ceiling, tapping your fingers against each other as you think. you turn your head, looking at the phone on your nightstand.
you’ve been wanting to call dally, to do anything with him but he’s been busy for weeks. you haven’t heard his voice in more than a week, and you’ve been feeling worried. you trust him, but know he’s been known to get around with other women. you believe it is different this time, that you can see the love in his eyes when he looks at you.
you smile to yourself, picking up the phone and taking it off the stand. you dial your boyfriends number, holding it up to your ear. it rings for a few seconds before you hear a sigh and soft whispers, a woman’s voice, you think, from the other end of the line.
“hey dal, do you think we could go to a diner tonight for—“ you begin to ask, excitement in your voice.
dally’s voice is flat, he interrupts you, “i’m busy, y/n.”
you still have hope, your smile dropping but trying to persuade him, “oh, that’s okay! maybe we can go—“
the phone rings, you look at the phone and ask, “hello? dally?” but you receive no answer. you sigh, placing the phone on the stand and laying back down. you stare at the ceiling, wondering why he hung up, maybe it was an accident.
you think about the other voice with dally, it sounded like a girls voice. there was no way he was with another girl right now, it makes no sense. he’s busy, probably cleaning up his own wounds or something, you wouldn’t know.
you look at the clock on your nightstand, it is around six, you remember the drive in would be open in around an hour. deciding to go to the drive in, you quickly stand up from your bed and walk to your dresser.
opening the drawers, you take some clothes out and accessories from your vanity. you walk to the bathroom, opening the door and taking off your clothes, putting your new outfit on. you look in the mirror, making sure you look okay.
picking up your toothbrush, you wet it and take a tube of toothpaste, putting some on your brush. you brush your teeth for about two minutes before spitting in the sink and rinsing your brush. you place your hand under the water, rinsing out your mouth and spitting once again.
you turn around, checking the time once again and seeing it’s around 6:30. you walk down the stairs to the entrance of your house and picking up your shoes. you put them on, walking back to the kitchen and picking up your keys from the island.
quickly walking back to the entrance of the house, you open the door and walk outside, onto the porch. you close the door behind you and take the keys, locking the door. you walk to your car in the driveway, opening the door and sitting in the drivers seat.
you begin to drive to the drive in, turning the radio on. lesley gore was playing, a favorite song of hers reminds you of you and dally. he always seems annoyed when you play her music, but tolerates it for some reason.
as you pull into the drive in, you park your car and open the door, walking to the concessions building. you begin to take your wallet out when you hear a familiar laugh, along with a girl talking.
you turn your head to see dally and a blonde, a girl with heavy eye-makeup and a cigarette in her hand. his arm is around her shoulder, he kisses her as it begins to turn into a make out session.
you stare as your heart drops, you freeze. sighing, you walk back to your car, opening the door and sitting in the drivers seat. you keep your eyes on the wheel, not yet driving back to your house.
looking down at your lap, you decide you’ll confront him, but he had ruined your night. you put your hands on the wheel and drive back to the bar. the drive to buck’s is silent, the sky gets darker and darker by the minute.
as you arrive at buck’s, you drive to the back of the building so your car can’t be seen. you look at the clock, knowing it would be about an hour before the movie is over. you wait, resting your head on your hand, closing your eyes.
you fall asleep, wanting a break from thinking. you wake up to a loud sound, you move your hand and lay your head on the window, taking a few moments to wake up. you open your eyes, turning your attention to the time, around nine.
you’d slept for around an hour and a half, you remember why you are at buck’s. you open the door to your car, standing up and closing it. you walk to the front of the building, opening the door and walking in.
loud voices and music fill your ears, bright lights shine in your eyes as buck greets you from behind the counter. you greet him back, walking through the bar up to dally’s room. before you enter the door, you sigh, your throat closing up and your eyes begin to tear up.
don’t cry, you think. there is no reason to be sad about someone cheating on you, it’s fine. you ball your fists up, knowing it’s not okay for anyone to act like how dally is. you take a moment for your throat to feel okay again, you blink multiple times before your tears are gone.
knocking on the door, you hear steps coming closer and closer. dally opens the door, staying in the same place but not inviting you in. he stares at you, waiting for you to say something.
you nervously look at him back, his cold eyes on yours. you ask, “can i come in?” he rolls his eyes, replying, “fine, man. make it quick.” as he doesn’t open the door for you, leaving you to do it yourself.
you walk into the room, he seemingly ignores you as you aren’t talking yet. he sits on his bed, taking a cigarette out and lighting it, waiting for you to speak. he looks at you, annoyed, “so? you just gonna stand there and waste my time?”
thinking, you ask, “why were you with sylvia today? i thought you two broke up, but you were kissing her and stuff.”
he rolls his eyes, sighing and not answering your question, “jesus…” and looks away from you.
your eyebrows furrow, you begin to feel warm as you ball your fists up. your voice begins to get louder and louder, “jesus? what the hell dallas, you fucking cheated on me and you know it! how can you act like you didn’t do—“
he yells, his attention now on you, “all you women are the same! how d’ya expect me to stay with you if we never spend time together, man—“
you interrupt him, yelling back, “we never spend time together because you’re fucking cheating on me with other girls, dumbass! i always knew you were messed up but not this messed up! how can you act like this and act like it’s okay, huh?” you move closer to him as he slowly backs up, you continue, “i don’t understand how someone can act as you do, what even is a relationship to you, dally? do you even care, do you even know that kissing other girls is considered cheating? sylvia cheated on you, two times, may i add, and you go back to her? you know, i stayed loyal and i thought we were in love. but ruining a perfectly fine relationship by cheating on me with someone who cheated on you, someone who’s probably with another guy right now, is pathetic. i thought you were smarter than that, dally. you are cold, heartless.”
as dally stares at you, he says nothing as you continue to speak, “you think you’re so tough, but deep down, you’re helpless, dally. you are nothing, people only like you because you can protect them, you think they care about you, but they don’t. and you know that, you feel the same about them. you don’t care.”
he gulps, looking at the floor and looking back at you, a blank stare on his face, you stare at him, this time a cold look on your face. his eyes are now filled with vulnerability, you say, “you have no purpose, dally.”
his eyes slightly widen, enough to notice. you turn around, heading out towards the door of his bedroom. you walk downstairs to the door of the building, out to your car. you drive home, your mind is empty, you hadn’t regret a word you’ve said to him.
dally sits on his bed, staring at the floor. he doesn’t regret kissing sylvia, what he did regret was letting you say those words about him. he begins to think, is what you said true? is he really cold, is he heartless?
he shakes his head, attempting to forget about what you’ve said. he stands up from his bed, walking to the phone connected to his wall. he spins the dial, calling sylvia’s number and placing the phone to his ear.
“hey, babe—“ he says, excited to talk to her. he is interrupted with a deep voice from the other line, “she’s busy. fuck off, man.”
dally hears a beep, the other line has hung up. he stares at the wall, dropping the phone, not bothering to place it back on the stand.
he rubs his hands on his face to the roots of his hair, yelling in anger, “damn it!”

word count: 1.4k
warnings: cussing, dally’s a bit of a dick
PONYBOY CURTIS
ponyboy’s top of his classes so he knows a lot, especially in english
because the two of you go to the same school, you guys have a lot more time together
he’ll always help you feel ready for a presentation and makes sure all your words are spelled correctly and you pronounce them right
same with when you’re called on to read, if you can’t pronounce a word then he’ll whisper in your ear and tell you, the both of you normally sit together
sometimes you’ll go over to his house or he’ll go over to yours, he assists you by studying with you
once he went over to your house, you had a vanity in your room but didn’t know what it was called, he asked you, “well what’s something that reminds you of it? of the vanity?”
you replied, “um… sticky notes because i have them on my mirror?” so he told you to connect the words ‘sticky notes’ so you could remember the word ‘vanity’
he’ll also read to you so you can learn more words and pronunciations, you also become entertained while you’re learning so it’s nice for the both of you
JOHNNY CADE
sometimes johnny goes to school with you so the both of you can learn together
he has a lot of patience so learning with him is easy, he’d make up around five words for you to pronounce and know the definition of every day
the two of you would review those words too, and because you were learning a whole new language, he decided to learn a new language too, yours
he knew what it was like to get frustrated over not being able to understand something, so the both of you taught one another your languages
you or johnny would point at a random object and the other would say it in both languages, it was a fun way to learn since it wasn’t one sided
when the two of you could have full on conversations in one another’s languages, the both of you were ecstatic
johnny even taught pony and the gang some words from your native language because he thought it was cool
SODAPOP CURTIS
man, you guys are learning english together because soda doesn’t really have a super wide vocabulary, he wasn’t that good in school
but he’ll teach you the basic words and their meanings, clothings, paintings, items, etc
he thinks it’s so attractive when you speak your native language or talk to him that way, he’ll get all blushy and smiley
his patience is actually pretty high and he’ll make you feel better if you feel bad about not knowing english that well
it doesn’t cause much of a problem in your guys relationship, it probably brings you two closer if anything
he loves it when you come to him to ask about words or what something’s called if it has certain characteristics
since you’re in school and he’s not, if you have to write an essay or presentation, he’ll give you synonyms so you won’t repeat the same words over and over
lord knows he got shitty grades because he used the same two words throughout his essay when describing something
DARRY CURTIS
he stays really patient with you because you can always learn more english, it’s not a one time thing when if you mess a word up then its messed up forever
so he helps you, since he was really smart and was good in school, he knew a very large range of vocabulary
you could ask him about a word and he’d immediately know the definition, sometimes asking you “verb or noun?” because he just knew so much
since he’s an old ass man he’ll show you magazines and newspapers, sometimes pointing to a random word, in which you tell him what it means, basically like a memory game
he teaches you a lot about grammar since most people don’t know how to use it correctly, he also teaches you how to use the correct ‘write, right’ ‘knight, night,’ ‘where, wear’ ‘here, hear’ ‘there, their, they’re’ basically homophones
darry really just wants you to have the best in life so he’ll teach you the most
DALLAS WINSTON
if we’re being realistic here, dally would bully the shit out of you
he is honest as hell and will not feel shameful or bad that he’s being rude to you for not understanding english as well as him
but he helps you learn new words and phrases, sometimes teasing you about it and giving you the wrong answers
he later tells you the truth though if you embarrass yourself by using it wrong
“dal… um, i heard some people talking about ‘left handed?’ what does that mean?” you would ask, him replying with, “means you only use your left hand, like your other is paralyzed or broken.”
sometimes he’ll randomly ask you, “what’s that?” and point at something, basically quizzing you so you can remember what is what
dally also helps you pronounce words, when you came home from school one day, you asked him how to say “pacific ocean” because all the c’s were pronounced differently, you were rightfully confused
however, if anyone else makes fun of you, he’ll get all pissed off at them and beat the shit out of them
if you start feeling guilty for not knowing words after he makes fun of you a bit, he’ll try not to as much and will focus more on teaching you words
he won’t love you any less if you struggle with english, he loves hearing you talk in your native language
you even teach him some words and phrases in your language, he complains, “that’s too hard to learn, doll, how many languages do you know?”
little do you know he’s actually impressed and would speak your language every day if he understood as well as you did
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
two-bit is actually very sweet about you not knowing english as well as him
sometimes, he’ll help you by watching television with you, whether it’s a movie or a series
he’s occasionally a little mean about it, laughing when you say something wrong, he corrects you after though
he’s lazy as hell though so you don’t learn much from him, but if you teach him about your language then he’ll pay attention
if you’re doing a presentation of some sort soon for school, he’ll make flash cards before and help you remember how to pronounce words and what they mean
also when in public, if both of you are in a restaurant or getting fast food, he’ll help you order what you want while you know of what the ingredients are
because he is helping you learn english, it doesn’t cause much of a problem in your relationship
also, you know that trend where it’s like ‘telling the transfer student that scooby doo is a bad word and to yell it’ that’s you guys
STEVE RANDLE
steve’s actually pretty smart so he gave you detailed descriptions of what some words meant
so when you asked what a dresser was when you were just learning, instead of pointing at it and leaving it be, he told you, “basically furniture with a lot of drawers that holds mostly clothes, it can hold other things too though.”
he also tells you more than you need to know, he talks to you about cars and all its parts even though you don’t know what they are
so he explains to you what they are and how they work, what they do and where they are in the car
steve really enjoys learning about how things work, so he’ll tell you about that too when you ask about a word or its pronunciation
also teaches you about metaphors and all that stuff, if you’re not good with sarcasm then he’ll help you know when someone is or is not being sarcastic
he also tells you that there’s a ‘shit ton of stupid rules in the english language’ and things are ‘weirdly fucking hard to pronounce’ so it’s fine to not get words right the first time

dally x reader
word count: 2.6k
warnings: cussing, slightly suggestive, bob being a bitch
dally was sitting on his bed in his room, above buck’s bar when he suddenly heard a ring from the phone on his dresser. “god damn it, who the fuck could it be…” he mumbled, grumpily walking over to the phone and picking it up.
“hey, who the hell is this?” he asked, receiving a response quickly, “it’s pony. you wanna go to the drive in with me and johnny and our other friend? she’s real tuff, i’m sure you’d like her. the movie’s at 7—“
dally looked at the wall, checking the time on the clock. it was nearly 3pm, he thought for a moment before interrupting pony, “i’ll come over now, we can get some food or something before we leave for the movie.”
“see you in a bit, dallas.” he responded, dally putting down the phone and therefore ending the call. he stared at the dresser for a couple seconds before making up his mind, pulling on the drawer handle and taking a plain black shirt out, putting it over his head. he then walked to another part of his room, picking up his shoes on the floor, putting them on and grabbing his denim jacket from a hanger. he put his arms through the sleeves and walked to the door, walking downstairs, telling buck, “hey, i’m taking your car. goin’ to a friend’s house.”
he rolled his eyes before grabbing the keys from his pocket, tossing them to dally before he was on his way to pony’s house. going into the car, he wondered what you would be like, knowing you were going to the drive in with johnny and pony. as he was on the road, he couldn’t stop thinking about you, thinking about what you could look like or if he would think you’re as tuff as ponyboy thought.
by the time he was at ponyboy’s house, it was 3:30pm. he took the keys out of his car and opened the car door, closing it behind him once he got out. he walked over to the entrance of his friend’s house, opening the door since he knew it would be unlocked. “hey dally, took you long enough.” he heard someone say, recognizing it as johnny’s voice. “hey, man, how you doin’?” he asked, walking over to the kitchen where he saw johnny and ponyboy eating some chocolate cake. both of them looking at dally and nodding.
“isn’t there gonna be some broad at the drive in with you guys? what’s that about?” he asked, johnny and pony looking at each other, johnny grinning and holding his hand out to pony. he groaned and mumbled a “gotta be kiddin’ me…” and pulled a dollar out of his pocket, giving it to the dark haired boy next to him.
dally watched the whole interaction but was still confused, only after pony explained who you were, he understood the two of them had made a bet. “how have we not told you about her, man? y/n’s been our best friend for years, one of the only nice socs, we hang out like three times every week, man. have you not seen her?” pony explained, johnny answering his question and saying, “oh she’s beautiful, dallas, you’d love her.” ponyboy nodding his head, agreeing with johnny.
all three of them talked for a while in the curtis house, ranging from you, to dally almost getting put in jail again, to some fight that pony witnessed, to johnny getting beat up by a soc, then once again, back to you. time passed by quickly and before they knew it, two hours had passed, they only had an hour before they wanted to be at the drive in.
dally couldn’t keep his mind off of you, he got curious because of how highly pony and johnny spoke of you. saying you were an academic beast, the most beautiful person someone could ever meet, the funniest and best person someone would want to be around, etc. “knew each other since we were… god, what were we? oh, i was around 7 i think, she was around 10.” pony stated, bringing dally back into the conversation after he zoned out.
the rest of the hour was spent talking about you, how you, pony and johnny met and became friends. detail by detail, dally grew more and more excited to meet you, but he tried not to show it. pony and dally continued their conversation while johnny glanced at the clock, noticing it was nearly 6:30. “hey guys, it’s close to seven. think we should start headin’ over to the drive in, yeah?” he asked, the two other boys nodding, getting up from their seats and walking out the door to the drive in.
by the time they arrived, the sky was dark even though it was still early. they looked around before getting on their knees, crawling under the fence and getting their jeans a bit dirtier than they wanted. “should be in a black mustang, i think. that’s what she has, right johnny?” pony stated, wanting to have his statement confirmed by his friend first. “yeah, pretty sure. wait— isn’t it dark blue?”
the two kept bickering back and forth, looking around even though many people were there. he glanced around, remembering how pony and johnny described your features, trying to find someone who described them. the three boys were near rows of chairs, your friends still arguing about what color your car was.
dally heard footsteps walking towards his direction and a loud voice, he recognized it as someone was yelling at another person. “god, won’t you just fucking listen to me, y/n!!? you can’t be hanging out with those— those hoods, they’ll ruin you!!” a boy with curly blond hair with an alcohol bottle in his hand yelled, dally realizing he was bob, someone that johnny had described multiple times, with his rings that cut up johnny’s face.
“look, bob. we’re not even together, why do you care so much about this? they aren’t bad people, you have to understand that!!” you argued back, trying to keep your voice steady and managing not to yell at him. even though the two of you were somewhat far away, dally lightly hit johnny’s arm and pointed at you, asking, “is that your friend?” looking back at him, seeing both of the younger boys smile.
pony and johnny started to walk towards you when he stopped them, worrying, “hey, hey… seems like she’s in an argument with that one guy over there. don’t you think we should wait?” the two of them paused, staring at you, watching you and bob continue arguing, him losing his temper and screaming at you, “you’re a fucking whore, y/n! a bitch too, leaving us for some gross hoods. what, you wanna live on the streets too, huh?”
you rolled your eyes, knowing they didn’t really live on the streets, they just knew them better. they weren’t as fortunate as you and bob, as the socs. you continued letting him yell at you when you heard footsteps behind you, like they were from multiple people. when bob paused and looked behind you and asked, “who the hell are you? get lost.” spitting near the people behind you, you cringed and moved away from the spit and bob, looking behind you to see johnny, pony and a boy who you haven’t seen before.
the dark haired boy, who was a bit taller than pony and johnny came closer to bob’s face. asking, “why the fuck are you yelling at her, huh? you have no fucking right to do that, you piece of shit.” pushing bob’s chest, causing him to back up. he looked at you, complaining, “this ain’t worth my time,” slowly walking backwards then turning around to walk towards his friends.
dally turned around, seeing you already looking at him and smiling. “you’re dally, aren’t you? i’ve heard about you before. pony and johnny talk about you sometimes…” you added, glancing over to the two boys at the end. he responded, “yeah, it’s dally. so you’re y/n, huh? the boys talk very highly of you, it’s a big thing to meet you,” pausing, hearing you giggle, then continuing, “you’re pretty good looking, you know. should get to know each other better, yeah?” smirking when he saw you blush.
after the four of you reached the seats, you sat in a row, two behind johnny and pony. the two of you continued talking although the movie had already started, not even paying attention. you had learned dally had an insanely long criminal record while you had none, his parents were both shitty and didn’t care about him, but yours were perfect. he didn’t give a shit about school, meanwhile you would most likely be the valedictorian. but he wanted to attend school again just so he could see you.
even though the two of you didn’t notice, the movie had ended as quickly as it started. both of you kept chatting away before pony and johnny looked behind the two of you and spoke, “man, nearly everyone’s gone. i think we should all go home, right? don’t want your parents to be mad, right y/n? don’t wanna get grounded again.” johnny teased, you rolling your eyes playfully and agreeing, “yeah, we should probably get going.”
when you looked away, dally gave the two boys a look and shrugged, a gesture for, “what the hell was that for?!” so they shrugged back and got up from their seats. the three boys walked you over to your car, ponyboy asked you all, “so, what’d you guys think of the movie?”
you and dally looked at each other and grinned, he replied, “wasn’t paying attention.” and you nodded, agreeing, “yeah, i wasn’t either.” he lightly bumped your shoulder in a teasing manner, causing you to giggle. by the time you got to your car, you felt your mood start to change drastically, going from happy to a sense of sadness. you wanted to continue talking to dally, but were nervous to ask.
you fidgeted with your hands and looked worried, staring at the ground before asking dally, “can i have your number?” his face turned into a shade of red, nodding quickly and speaking, “yeah, you got a pen and paper?” you wondered for a second before stating, “maybe, let me check.” so you opened your car door slightly and frantically looking around, yet finding a pen and not a piece of paper. you grabbed it and shrugged, “i only have a pen… sorry…” feeling bad that you got your hopes up.
he took the pen from your hands, asking if you could roll up your sleeves, you nodded and he gently grabbed your arm. as he wrote his number on your arm, you looked at johnny and pony, smiling at them while they gave you a thumbs up. “this doesn’t hurt, right?” dally asked, checking up on you. you shook your head, suddenly you didn’t feel pressure on your arm and he handed the pen back to you. looking on your arm, he wrote his number and ‘dally ;)’ at the bottom.
you smiled at the little winking face, looking up at him to see him already grinning at you. you mumbled, “i think i have to go now… i don’t want my parents to be mad…” dally looked at you, nodding and stating, “i’ll call you in the morning, ‘kay? we should hang out tomorrow.” while you got into your car, putting the keys in.
dally bent down to the window and smiled, you beamed, “it was nice meeting you, dally… i hope we can figure out another time to hang out. thanks for inviting me, pony and johnny.” they smiled and said “we’ll see you later!!” and waved as you drove out of the drive in, going in the direction of your house.
watching your car with a bit of sadness, dally turned his head and mumbled, “let’s get you two home…” johnny and pony teased him the whole way back to ponyboy’s house, saying it was so obvious that he thought you were cute and was trying to flirt with you. “your eyes were basically like hearts, like in the cartoons when they fall in love!!” johnny chuckled, getting a playful hit on the back from dally.
by the time they reached the curtis house, johnny and pony said goodbye to dally, “we’ll talk to you later, dallas. don’t fuck it up with y/n, we don’t have to choose in between you and her!!” waving at him when he got into the car, driving to buck’s. as he walked into the bar, a girl walked up to him and said, “hey, you wanna go somewhere? there’s a bathroom over there,” she pointed, “maybe we could… bang?” she winked, dally made a disgusted face and said, “i have a girlfriend, dipshit.” and walked away, knowing he didn’t really have anyone romantically, but he wanted you.
when he was brushing his teeth and getting ready for bed, he was thinking about you. the way you talked, trying to keep your sweet voice in his head, the way you looked at him with interest while he talked. you had made him feel important for those two hours the both of you talked. he yearned for you, for your attention and love, but he thought he wouldn’t admit that to anyone, not if it was to save his life.
when you got home and walked up to your bedroom after you took your shoes off, you smiled at the writing on your arm. walking to your vanity, you pulled out a sticky note and pencil, writing dally’s phone number with a ‘dally’ and a heart next to it, underneath the numbers themself.
you changed into your matching set of pajamas and went into your bathroom, grabbing your toothbrush and toothpaste, wetting the toothbrush and putting toothpaste on it. you felt a lot different now than how you did with dallas, not even 30 minutes ago. you spit out the toothpaste once two minutes had passed, you wiped your mouth, turned the lights off and walked to your bed. you turned on the lamp that was on your nightstand, turning off your big light in the center of your room.
you and dally were both laying on your own beds, thinking about each other, both wondering “are they thinking about me too? there’s no way, it didn’t even seem like they liked me. maybe they were being nice.”
only johnny and pony knew, johnny had slept over at pony’s house while you called them, ranting to them about dally and how sweet he seemed, and when you hung up, they immediately got a call from the boy you were just talking about. he was talking about you, and for once seemed like he wanted something more than a short term relationship. he tried to make it seem like he didn’t care that much, but the two boys could tell.

warnings: cussing, smoking, slightly suggestive parts, wounds, fighting
probably obvious but he protects you with his life
this isn’t necessarily a dating headcannon, but he’s brutally honest so if you ask him something he’ll always tell the truth, unless it’s to run away from the cops or something
whenever he gets arrested for something, you always bail him out since you’re his emergency contact
after he gets into a fight and has wounds, you always patch him up even if he doesn’t want you to
he actually appreciates it a lot and sees it as a very intimate situation since he’s vulnerable at the moment
he’ll also steal random shit for you, you scold him but love how he’s thoughtful enough to get you those things
he’ll smoke sometimes but tries not to as much when he’s around you, he knows you hate the smell and the smoke in general
once, you got him a few presents since the two of you were dating for a year and one of the presents was a bracelet
you made it for him and you had a matching one, he scoffed but thanked you anyways
it seemed like he didn’t care, that he thought it was stupid, but he wore it every day forward and thought it was the cutest thing ever
it always reminds him of you, so when he gets arrested and has to stay for a bit, he has a part of you with him
a lot of late night drives since he has trouble sleeping, normally goes to bed around 1-3 in the morning, sometimes later
he’ll randomly call you and ask, “hey doll, wanna go for a drive? i can pick you up..” talking quietly since you probably got woken up
you’d complain for a bit before getting up and dressed, he’s already on his way to your house
the two of you would be quiet on the drive, he’d park somewhere random since you suggested the two of you could look at the stars
he didn’t think much of the stars, nor the moon, but when he saw you looking up with interest, he could only keep his eyes on you
normally has an arm around your shoulder in a protective gesture, when you’re walking down the streets and he’s smiling, laughing and talking to you
he knows he’s in deep shit when you just call him ‘dallas’ and don’t say anything else
then he figures out you just wanted him to try the cupcakes you made
speaking of baking, he’s the guinea pig and is always trying out sweets you make
he’ll tell you if something tastes off or if something tastes amazing, but will normally eat it even if it doesn’t taste the best
he just loves it when you put your head on his chest, trying to sleep while he thinks about how lucky he is to have you :3
you get all blushy when he’s shirtless and he teases you about it constantly
he just loves seeing you get flustered seeing him literally do nothing
he’ll compliment and thank you you whether it’s about your looks, outfit, something you did for him, etc
you’ll wear an outfit he likes and he’ll compliment you, mumbling, “your outfit looks real nice today, doll” while putting his hands on your hips, kissing your neck
if you’re cold and in public then tell him, he asks “baby, why didn’t you bring your jacket?” but gives you his jacket anyway
if someone’s hitting on you, he goes behind you and kisses your cheek, saying “hey doll… oh, who’s this?” and when you look back at the person he stares them down
if you’re cooking or baking, something like that, he’ll go up behind you and wrap his arms around your waist
sometimes he’ll randomly start kissing you, then it turns to making out
occasionally, he’ll actually pay for food when the two of you go out to eat
he’ll share food with you if you’re hungry, not before rolling his eyes though
he’s actually more than willing to give you food
when he’s genuinely concerned about you, he’ll look at you with the cutest eyes ever, pulls you into his chest and kisses your forehead, telling you it’ll be alright
when he’s bored or just wants to see you, he’ll walk to your house if it’s not that far away
then he’ll climb up to the second floor, where your room is and tap on your window
sometimes he’ll sleep over and curl up into your side
your heartbeat calms him down but he would never tell anyone that
when you’re sad or upset about something, he doesn’t really know how to comfort you besides telling you you’re amazing and perfect, rubbing your back and giving you reassuring kisses
then he’ll take you out to a fast food place or restaurant
if the two of you eat sour patch kids, he says he hates the blue ones and they taste like shit, he’ll give them to you even though he actually likes it
authors note: sorry this was short! i hope it wasn’t too basic 💗
haayy! <33 May I please request platonic, and separate, headcanons for the outsiders gang with a younger reader (12-13-14) that is used to like everyone leaving her life suddenly (example: her father went to war and died, her closest friend moved out, another friend stopped talking to her) and she just like randomly has this habbit of cuddling up into them and shutting out in a 'memorizing state'?
/like she's just like memorizing everything about them because she knows fears that they'll end up leaving as everyone else and she won't have a chance to say goodbye so she just wants to memorize everything about them to remember them? poor reader's such a sweet traumatized bean that it's not even funny 😭
authors note: this is not romantic, just platonic. in the ask, it basically explains what this is gonna be about. the reader is a child who basically has abandonment issues, and clings onto everyone she meets, specifically the gang. sorry this took a while to post 💗

PONYBOY CURTIS
the two of you met at school, becoming friends instantly
both of you were good at academics, and would open up to each other once in a while
the two of you would do your own therapy lessons and give each other advice once every week
so when the two of you went back to his house, you politely took off your shoes and greeted his brothers
he invited you to his room to hang out and have your emotional talk of the week and go study
“so… some crazy shit happened and i feel bad about it, but can i tell you…?” you asked
he nodded and sat down on his bed right next to you
you told him about how a close friend ran away, your only good male friend that didn’t treat you like shit
he apologized for it, and you almost started crying
he rubbed your back and said, “you know it’s not your fault though, right? maybe he had some stuff going on..”
you sniffled and tears rolled down your face, you and ponyboys knees and sides next to each other
he told you to lay down so you could rest, and you pulled him down with you, cuddling up into him
he knew you always wanted to be close since it was just a safety thing, you felt loved when you were with someone physically
so he wrapped his arm around you, making you feel protected
you fell asleep and started to breathe normally, ponyboy planned to rest his eyes, but ended up sleeping too
JOHNNY CADE
you and johnny have been friends for a while, the two of you relating because of many things happening at home
your parents didn’t care about you, as johnnys parents didn’t care about him
the only thing they cared about was drinking, however, you and johnny tried as hard as you could to not get into that habit
johnny didn’t go to school much, but you had to
you didn’t have much friends when you were in school, and the only ones you had weren’t really true friends
when you came to school one day, your friends and everyone else were staring at you, whispering to their friends
then one of your classmates came up to you, telling you “hey, you look confused. this is probably the last thing you wanna hear, but there’s a rumor that you were kind of… having a thing with a teacher…”
your eyes went wide and you stared at your classmate, telling them that’s disgusting and not true, they said they knew but the whole school already didn’t like you
so your friends ignored you for the whole day, and you were walking back to your house, johnny seeing you and calling out your name
you turned your head and saw him running over to you, asking what you were doing and if you had a good day at school
“no..” you mumbled, telling him everything that happened
the two of you sat down on a bench, not wanting to go to your houses
you confessed, “i care too much. i just do, and that’s the problem. i’ll want to be friends with the people who talked behind my back, the ones who created the rumors. they’re two of the only people i have. i just… i want to leave.. sometimes..”
johnny knew how you felt, but he didn’t want to worry you, he couldn’t tell you
he felt the same exact way sometimes, always going back to people who hurt him, something you did too
you put your head on his shoulder and he looked down at you, your eyes closed
you were starting to fall asleep, so he put his head on yours and started to fall asleep too
the two of you needed each other, you understood each other like how no one else did
SODAPOP CURTIS
you were a little younger than ponyboy, and you actually tutored him, even though he was pretty smart
the two of you were friends and grew close, so you would come to his house at least twice weekly
you would see soda and darry, ponyboy’s brothers, and they would offer you food and activities for helping out their brother
soda noticed some things in you that he noticed in himself, you were naturally left out, and ponyboy told him that
you kept to yourself but people assumed you didn’t have problems, but you and soda got into a big conversation once, one about emotions, and you didn’t even remember how you started talking about them
you told him nearly everyone in your life walked out on you, like everyone forgot about your existence and no one cared about you
since you had no friends, people didn’t want to be your friend, thinking there’s probably a reason why you had none
“i-i don’t know, i just get overwhelmed sometimes too… like i gotta prove to everyone that im worthy of their time, even though i know no one will listen to me. i don’t know, it’s probably stupid..” you told soda
“i used to feel that way too, but you gotta make risks, right? try to be someone’s friend, go look for relationships! you aren’t gonna get anywhere if you don’t try, huh?” he gave you a weak smile
“yeah… i guess you’re right. does the feeling go away though? wanting to prove yourself even though no one listens? so maybe even people just know you made an effort?” you asked him
he thought for a moment and nodded, “yeah, it goes away eventually…”
you hugged him tightly and lay down on the couch, your feet on his lap
he put his hand on your calf in a comforting way, staring sadly into the distance, outside the window
he had lied, the feeling didn’t even go away for him, he had that feeling for years, and it was still there
but he didn’t want to worry you, you were just a kid, younger than ponyboy
soda grew to care about you as much as he cared about ponyboy, because he saw a part of himself in you, and felt a need to help you
DARRY CURTIS
he was already used to having to take care of his siblings, so he doesn’t necessarily have a problem with taking care of you
you would sleep at his house a lot, in pony boys room since the two of you were closest in age
but you’d seek out for darry and not anyone else
you preferred to stay within arms length near darry, not feeling protected or safe without him
you really looked up to him, and he knew that, he knew about your troubles at home and how nearly every guy in your life walked out on you
you knew you wanted him to stay and take care of you, but you always had the thought in the back of your mind that he would abandon you
but he knew you needed a male figure in your life, so he decided to help you build boundaries and expectations in life
you weren’t feeling the best, you had a school event where you had to present something in front of the whole school
you were nervous and needed someone to be there, someone to support you
but neither your mom nor dad came to visit you, and darry was busy working, plus you didn’t tell him about the event
so when you went home to the curtis house, you saw darry on the couch
“hey kid, how was school? anything fun happen?” he asked
“um… i don’t know, i had to do a presentation in front of the whole class..” you answered
“really? were your parents there?”
you answered with a ‘no’ and he asked, “why didn’t you tell me about it? i could’ve gone, taken the day off.”
tears started to form in your eyes, you sat next to darry and cuddled into his side, nearly laying down
he rubbed your shoulder in a calming gesture, telling you everything would be okay
you sniffled, tears still dripping down your face, repeating “i’m sorry, i’m sorry..” for no reason at all, and he told you there’s nothing to be sorry for
“thank you..” you mumbled to him, slowly falling asleep on the couch
darry just stared at you, feeling bad for you, believing no child should go through what you have gone through
DALLAS WINSTON
the two of you actually met at the police station, both of you being arrested for stealing
he managed to get out of the handcuffs because no one was watching him, and you started wandering around, the officers not cuffing you so you could feel a bit in control, you were a kid after all
dally walked over to you, seeing you secretly looking at files, looking for your name
“the fuck are you in here for, kid?” he asked
“i took something from someone, i was gonna give it back but the bitch just called the fucking cops on me. what about you?” you answered
“i stole too. name’s dally, but how old are you?”
you replied with “y/n. i’m 12.” he stared at you for a couple seconds, mouth opening a bit due to shock, and you got called over to be released
the two of you kept running into each other multiple times throughout the next few months, whether it was on the streets or at the police station
the two of you naturally got to know each other, and he thought of you as a little sister to protect
the two of you were talking about feelings, and how you didn’t know how you felt, most of the time you could never tell what you were feeling, and you never knew how to explain it to someone because they wouldn’t understand
except he understood, that was the one thing someone’s said that he’s full on related to
you told him your mom left when you were young, but you never had the words to explain how you felt, and people thought you were a shitty person because of it, which caused you to have no friends
you confessed all of that while you were sitting on a chair in the police station, next to dally
he responded with “it’s okay not to know how you’re feeling. i’m sure you know deep down, you just don’t know how to explain it. that’s fine, you’re not a bad person for it. you’re still figuring things out.” making eye contact with you the whole time, trying to get you to understand
you looked at him the whole time with a look in your eyes that he thought was sad, but knew you wouldn’t know that
you didn’t say anything back, and put your head on his shoulder, closing your eyes and falling asleep
he put his head back to the wall, closing his eyes too, a protective arm around you and falling asleep
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
he unexpectedly understands emotions very well, no one really expects him to have such a high emotional intelligence since his thing is making jokes and making fun of people
but when you walked his sister home, even though she was very young and you didn’t even know her, he appreciated it
it became routine for you to walk her home to her and two-bit’s house after school, and her brother decided ‘might as well get to know her if she’s keeping my sister safe’
so the two of you became close, and it was like you were his sister too
you started opening up about how you were never that protected in your life, so you wanted to protect those who never had it either
just so they’d feel a little better and feel like people care about them, that person being two-bits sister
she was almost in second grade, used to walk alone after school, feeling unsafe
then you walked her home and continued to do that for years
when you walked her home one day, after you had a bad day at school, two-bit let you and his sister in
you were quieter than usual, so he asked you what was wrong after you took of your shoes and put your backpack on the ground
the sister went to her room, and you told two-bit, “i got jumped at school.”
his eyes went wide and asked, “what? by who, are you okay? i can patch you up if you’re really hurt—“ but you said, “oh, i’m fine keith.. just don’t worry about it, wasn’t that big of a deal…”
he argued with you, saying some people die by getting jumped, and you sat on the couch, sighing
he sat next to you, putting an arm around your shoulder and pulling you closer, mumbling “you need to tell me when things like this happen. want me to beat them up for you?”
you smiled but shook your head, not wanting them to be hurt, because in your head, maybe they had a reason to do it
“you’re an empath at heart, y/n, but it’s gonna get in your way one day.” he told you
you put your head on his side, whispering an “i know..” and falling asleep
he knew you always tried to back up how people felt, that things aren’t their fault and maybe they had a reason for doing what they did, but could never forgive yourself for your own actions and mistakes
you were always the comforter, never the comforted, until you met keith
STEVE RANDLE
the two of you met at the DX, you coming nearly every day at the same time around 3:30pm after school
he started wondering why a kid as young as you would be walking around alone, to the same place every day
he decided to stay at work until you left, making sure no one came in to hurt you
then after you realized one of the workers were always staring at you, the two of you started to talk
he asked “why are you always here? shouldn’t you be at home or something..” and you responded with “i don’t like going home. my parents are mean, they’re hardly even at the house..”
he stared at you, and continued the conversation, telling you he’d walk you home when you’d be ready
this continued for the next couple months, the two of you growing close and him becoming like a brother to you
once, you knocked on the door of his house, your face red and puffy with tear marks on your face
“…can i stay here for tonight?” you asked quietly, and he responded with a nod and welcomed you in
he already had a bed set up for you since you would sleep over sometimes
he sat on his bed and asked “so, you gonna tell me what happened or not..?” eyebrows going upwards
you responded with, “so you know how my dad went into the military a few months ago, right?” and he nodded
“well, he died.”
silence, steve looked at you, and he knew there was pain in your eyes
your father never payed attention to you anyways, and you didn’t know why you were sad
you were close to breaking down again, so you ran into his chest, giving him a hug in the process
he hugged you back, picking you up onto the bed to keep hugging you, knowing you needed comfort
at some point, you were knocked out, already snoring
he knew you had a ton of shit going on, but didn’t understand why you missed your dad even though he never cared for you
but you were young, and needed someone to look up to, so he decided to take on that role and teach you many things and life lessons
he didn’t even know he knew everything he taught you, he just said whatever was on his mind

you decided to drop by the DX so you could buy a few snacks and hopefully see soda, your boyfriend. months have passed by since dally cheated on you, but you’ve moved on, not without encouraging words from the whole gang.
although they are still friends with dallas, they don’t approve of him cheating on you. dally’s been getting a ton of shit from the others and still hasn’t apologized to you.
you haven’t forgiven him for cheating on you, but you’ve gotten past the break up itself and not being in a relationship with him anymore.
it’s a mutual agreement that your relationship with soda is a secret, except steve, who knows because soda accidentally blabbed to him. the two of you don’t want dally coming for either or you, you being with one of dally’s friends and for soda being with his ex girlfriend.
because your mind was occupied the whole time you were walking to the DX, you hadn’t realized you arrived. as you begin to focus on the present, you open the door, flinching at the hotness of the metal.
you quickly walk in, sighing as you feel cold air envelope your skin. you look up to see steve grinning at you, his arms are crossed as he leans on the counter. he turns back and yells, “soda! your girl’s here!”
as you walk up to the counter, you hear footsteps as you see soda walking towards you and steve. he smiles at you, speeding up and walking to the front of the counter. he beams, “y/n! man, i’m so glad to see you after so long!” he wraps his arms around your waist, leaning down and placing his lips against yours.
when the two of you move away from each other, you look to see steve in the back, giving you and soda some time together. the two of you begin to talk, he guides you to behind the counter, patting a spot so you can sit there.
you hop onto the counter, swinging your legs as you listen to him talk. around forty-five minutes pass when you hear a bell ring, a sign that a customer walked in.
soda’s face turns pale as he avoids looking at you, you turn around. dally’s face is horrified, he yells “are you fuckin’ kiddin’ me, man!?” he points an accusing finger at soda.
“you guys broke up! you were in the wrong for cheatin’ on her, dally!” your boyfriend argues back. you stay silent as they continue to argue, backing up soda when needed.
steve stomps out from the back, raising his voice, “hey, what the hell is goin’ on?” he sets his eyes on dally and mumbles, “oh.”
“did you know ‘bout this, steve?” dally’s eyebrows are furrowed as his face turns redder by the second.
steve yells, “they didn’t tell you because you’d fuckin’ act like this, dally!”
before the criminal can respond, your boyfriend suggests, “now how ‘bout you leave, dallas? we don’t want you here.”
at sodas words, his eyes narrow and he glares at soda. his fists ball up, he takes a swing at soda, he luckily dodges it and grabs your hand, guiding you to the back.
steve walks up to dally, pushing at his chest and landing a punch on his jaw. he begins to bleed, they yell at each other constantly until steve lands another punch. he forces dally out of the shop, he runs, probably to the curtis house, soda guesses.
the interaction between dally and the three of you, and he hardly spared you a glance. you ask steve and soda, “are the two of you okay?” both of them nod, steve says he’ll call darry and tell him not to let dallas in.
steve walks to the back, you hear him talking to sodas older brother. silence fills the air once he hangs up.
soda shrugs and grins, “well, at least we don’t gotta keep our relationship ‘way from the gang now, huh?”
you chuckle, he places his arm over your shoulders and you reply, “guess so!”
Can you do gang x reader (minus steve and probably pony and Johnny) where reader is Steve’s ridiculously protective older sister?
I feel like that would be funny, because Steve doesn’t really need protection, so it would be embarrassing at best and super annoying at worst
authors note: please send requests i love doing them!!
includes soda, darry, dally and two-bit

warnings: mentions of getting jumped, switchblades, steve being embarrassed of reader, slightly suggestive, cussing
SODAPOP CURTIS
soda and steve were at work when you drove into the small parking lot for the DX
opening the door and getting out of the car, you walked into the shop, where soda was at the register
you asked if you could get soda and some chips, and he thought you were beautiful, you complimented him on his eyes and he smiled at you, telling you your hair was the best he’s ever seen
“hey, is steve here?” you asked soda, and for a second he thought you were his girlfriend
he yelled for steve, and he came out of the back since he was on his lunch break, he groaned and walked to the front
“y/n? the hell are you doing here? aren’t you supposed to be at—“ you cut your brother off before he could continue
“mom and dad are pissed that you snuck out last night to hang out with your friends. don’t do that shit again though, i don’t want you to get in trouble or hurt.” you said, and there was a pause of silence
soda asked if the two of you were siblings, and steve asked how he didn’t know
you had to get back to work, so you gave soda a twenty dollar bill tip, saying goodbye with a smile
he smiled back at you and waved, then steve warningly said, “soda.” and he looked back at your brother, trying to look confused
he stared soda down but then walked to the back, him following steve
“why’d she have all that money? plus you never told me you had a sister! how old is she?” he kept asking steve multiple questions, making it hard to answer
“she’s really good at school. people have payed her to participate in whatever fucking event they’re holding, plus she’s got a good job. she’s 16, turning 17 soon, and you aren’t getting with her.”
“whyyyyy???!!” soda complained, and steve told him it’s embarrassing to have his best friend be dating his sister, plus it was already embarrassing to have you barge into the workplace and scold him
soda kept thinking about you, and one day decided to randomly go to steve’s house
he was originally gonna ask if he wanted to hang out with the gang, but was secretly hoping to have you open the door and talk to him
when he knocked on the door and you answered, wearing a tight white tank top with a pink bow, along with striped pink and white pajama shorts, his face went red
he smiled and chuckled, asking if steve was home
you said yes and motioned him to come into the house, so the two of you talked after you yelled at steve to come downstairs
when steve came down, you told him, “if you and soda are planning to go around town, take my car. don’t want you getting jumped by some random people. do you have that blade i gave you?”
soda admired how much you cared about your brother, and how funny and beautiful you were
he started to realize he liked you, but knew your brother would be pissed at him, but he kept talking and trying to pursue a relationship with him
one day, nearly a year into talking, he asked you if you could go on a date with him
he saved money for a restaurant, planning to go there with you
the two of you were talking about more emotional things, and bonded over some things you had going on in your heads
then he confessed to you, and you reciprocated the feelings
he decided he would ask your brother ‘for his blessing’ before dating you, and steve responded with a “are you kiddin’ me? my sister? what— god, fine. she talks about you nonstop anyway…”
the two of you started dating and you were both so happy about it
you started talking to soda about how steve is always telling you about funny things that happened at work
you’d purposely embarrass steve since the two of you were siblings, whenever he did something ‘big’ you would say “awww, my little brothers growing up!!” or “my little brothers acting so old now :(“ or randomly picking fights with him for no reason
soda understands since he’ll pick on pony sometimes too, just because they’re siblings though
you always make sure steve and the gang have weapons and protection before going into a rumble or simply walking on the streets
DARRY CURTIS
you were dropping off steve at the curtis house when you saw a tall brunette who was really fucking muscular
you walked your brother into the house, but stayed outside because you didn’t want to come in unannounced
before he went into the house, you asked him if he had his blade on and spare house keys
he groaned and rolled his eyes, mumbling yes and walking into the house
you drove back home and stayed there for a few hours since you had a day off of work
steve told you to pick him up around 8pm, so around 7:30, you got into your car and drove to the curtis house
when you opened the door and walked to the front door, the muscular guy opened up the door and invited you inside
you walked inside and thanked him, so you asked him who he was and what his relation was to steve, you were just trying to look out for your brother
“sodas brother. and you’re his..?” darry said, and you replied with “oh, i’m his sister. not surprised he hasn’t talked about me, don’t think he likes me embarrassing him in front of his friends.” you giggled
he smiled at you and asked you more about your life, where you worked and how old you were, if you had any other siblings besides steve, your interests, etc
he enjoyed hearing you talk about yourself, then you asked him about himself, and he felt a warm feeling
people didn’t care about him since they knew he could handle himself, so he was glad that someone cared
the two of you continued talking and steve and soda came down from sodas room, and you said “took you long enough. you alright?” to your brother
he nodded and continued talking to soda, so you gave darry your number, suggested that he should call you sometime, or you’d call him
the two of you would call each other when you had time, which was rare, then you started hanging out together, first in a group then one on one
he had a difficult time identifying what feelings he was feeling, he hadn’t felt something like how he felt about you in a long time
then he realized he liked you, so he started awkwardly flirting with you and complimenting you constantly
you loved the attention, especially from him, so you flirted back and even kissed him on the cheek once when leaving his house
the next day, after a long conversation, he asked you to be his girlfriend
you said yes, and the two of you talked about how it could be difficult sometimes to be the older sibling
your feelings were ignored and you were expected to take care of your younger siblings, and darry related too
the two of you would help each other out with your siblings, knowing it could be highly stressful at times
you’d even take care of each other, and soda told steve that darry told him that you’re the best partner ever, and he feels bad that you’re always so worried about steve
sometimes he would think you didn’t care about him, but after soda told him that, he started appreciating your presence more
DALLAS WINSTON
after you dropped steve at the curtis house, you heard there was a huge rumble between many greasers and socs
you drove back to the curtis house and knocked on the door
you heard an annoyed voice saying, “man, who the fuck is it??” in a new york type of accent
hearing loud stomps coming closer and closer to the door, you backed up
the door swung open and a tall guy with brunette-blonde hair was standing there, blood on his face
he looked at you up and down and said quietly, “shit, man, you steve’s sister?” and you nodded, asking him if he was okay and if steve was there
he said “yeah.. i’m fine, uh, your brothers here, i’ll call him… steve!! your sisters here, said you’re in trouble!!”
you smiled at the last part, and he made small talk with you
he told you about the big fight that had just happened, and you brought medical supplies
you told him he should get some help, that he’s bleeding out and he needs to stop the bleeding immediately
he said he was fine and asked what your name was, you told him and he said “dally.” introducing himself
you sighed and told him, “just… hang on, i have medical supplies in the trunk. i’ll go get it, you seem like you’re on the edge of death.” mumbling the last part
after you brought the supplies back, you gave the items to dally, knowing he wouldn’t let you patch him up
he looked up at you after he sat on the couch, “thanks”
he didn’t trust you enough to let you get super close to him, but already knew you were a good person with good intentions, so he gave you his number
steve came out of the bathroom and asked what you were doing here
“the fuck is wrong with you? you could’ve died, and don’t tell me you didn’t get hurt because i know you did.” you scolded
“what— jesus, sorry sis i didn’t know you cared so damn much. are we going home or what?” he stormed out of the front door
you sighed and had a sad look on your face, so you said bye to dally, you knew you had to go
he said bye and told you to call him later
the two of you talked a lot over the next one and a half years, which he liked you for most of the time you knew each other
he didn’t know if it was genuine love or someone he would just mess around with, he then realized he wanted to be in a long term relationship with you
then, after he got into another fight with a couple of socs, he went back to buck’s bar, which is where you were
since the two of you formed a very special bond, you were worried about him and said “dal, i know you probably don’t want me to but i need to patch you up, you don’t look like you’re in the best condition right now.”
he sat down on his bed while you wiped blood from his face and his chest, his face turning a bit red because of the vulnerability involved
he mumbled a quiet thank you, and you heard him, said a “you’re welcome”
it was in that moment that he knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with you
his eyes looked up at you with vulnerability and love, both of you knowing he’d never show that side of him to anyone else but you
he blurted out, “will you be my girlfriend?” and when he saw the look on your face, he almost regretted it
then you put your hands gently on his face and kissed him, saying yes
he wrapped his hands around your waist and pulled you onto his lap, but you sat next to him, not wanting him to get any more hurt than he already was
he really appreciated the way you cared for steve whenever he got hurt, but knew he might get annoyed if it was persistent
you’d always ask dally if he had the things he needed before going out on the streets, even though you knew he could handle himself
he always loved how you worried about him, and he would worry about you every day when he wasn’t with you
he felt the safest in your arms, in your presence, he knew you would always try your best to keep him safe and loved
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
one day, steve asked you to drive him to the drive in, planning to watch another elvis movie
you said “jesus christ, steve, this has been like… the third elvis movie in the past five months, the fuck is going on?” and he laughed about it, you drove him to the drive in
when steve got out of the car and started screaming his friends names, in hopes of finding them, two-bit ran up behind him and screamed in his ear
steve yelled and the two of them started playfully hitting each other, and you smiled, knowing your brother found someone he could act like that with
then his friend looked over to see you, and started walking towards you while steve was trying to get him to stop
you looked at him, still in the car, and he introduced himself and said “you’re steve’s sister, right?” and you said yes, the two of you joked around
you found out he was really funny, and he found out you were funny too, your humor complimented each others in weird ways
he thought you were real pretty, but thought you wouldn’t go for a guy like him
but he won you over on the first day because of his humor and poor flirting
steve eventually walked away to go find his other friends, while you and two-bit were still talking, and you yelled after him, “stevie, don’t do some stupid shit! don’t wanna have to do lots of paperwork!”
when you gave him a nickname, he knew he had to ask you out
it was nearly a year after the two of you met in the drive in, and you, surprisingly enough, asked him to be your boyfriend
he said yes and joked about how steve was gonna be so pissed at both of you
you told him about times you wanted to confess to him, but either didn’t have the time, too nervous or steve didn’t want you to talk to his friends
the two of you kept laughing about things your younger siblings have done, like two-bits sister smearing nutella all over her face
and you got mad at your brother when you two were younger, so you printed out a photo of steve’s face and threw eggs at your house, hoping he’d get in trouble
sometimes two-bits sister would hang out with you two, and she’d always tease her brother about talking about you so damn much
she almost knew everything about you even though you hardly knew her
she loved you though and you were so happy about it
sorry if this is inaccurate! i actually have no siblings so idk how this is supposed to work LMAO
hi! can you do the gang with reader who has Avoidant attachment style?
authors note: i researched about avoidant attachment, and it’s basically someone who is independent, uncomfortable with intimacy, struggles with voicing emotions, emotionally distant or unavailable, and somewhat detached from relationships. i get out of school on the 14th, so ill try to work on all the requests over the summer! as i am working on this, i have 8 requests in my inbox. sorry i technically didn’t post yesterday!! this post is really short, but i hope you enjoy 💗
includes ponyboy, johnny, soda, darry, dally, two-bit and steve
word count: 1.8k
warnings: cussing, avoiding, being uncomfortable with physical touch and emotional talk, struggles in relationships
PONYBOY CURTIS
you and ponyboy were in your history class, working on notes, studying for your upcoming test
the teacher had given the class the questions beforehand, so you wrote down the odds and your boyfriend wrote down the evens
you later wrote down the even number questions and answered them, along with answering all your odd questions besides one
you stared at your paper with confusion, not wanting your boyfriend to notice that you were struggling with a specific question
you frantically looked through the textbook, trying to find the answer to no avail
ponyboy glanced over to you, seeing your worried face, asking quietly, “you want some help, y/n?” not wanting you to be embarrassed
you shook your head, not looking back at him, still flipping through the pages of the history textbook
he wanted you to get the question without telling you or asking once again if you needed help, so he flipped to the page where he found the answer in his textbook, and put it into your view
ponyboy stayed quiet, you glanced at his desk to see the textbook on his desk, flipped to a certain page, the topic of your question in big red text
you flipped to the page in your book, writing down the answer in your notes page
your boyfriend smiled at you, asking if you’d like to go over your notes to see if you got the same answers
you nodded and read over your notes, all of your answers matching
ponyboy would help you in discreet ways, ways that you would hardly think about as helping
but he was fine that you didn’t consider his actions as helping, he didn’t want you to think he was helping, because then you would become distant
he would try to be on his own sometimes, to be independent, but would get used to asking help from people even though he was fine with doing things on his own
he would try to get you into the habit of asking for help, failing profusely, but you knew he cared
JOHNNY CADE
you and your boyfriend were at the drive in, watching an elvis movie together
but before the movie started, you asked johnny if he wanted to get some food and drinks from the concessions stand, so the two of you walked over to where the food was
“you want anything, johnny? i can pay.” you asked
he said, “oh, maybe we can share popcorn? um, i can pay, actually..” not wanting to be rude
you replied with a yes to sharing the popcorn, but refusing to let him pay for the food
he nodded, knowing you wouldn’t let him pay, but he wanted you to know that he would pay if you let him
johnny is someone who didn’t really get a lot of affection, so he kind of craves it
but the two of you make your relationship work, and he respects your boundaries, knowing how difficult it was when rules and boundaries were crossed
so he showed his love for you with affectionate words, even if you wouldn’t say it back
you would help him with things, along with his emotions but never opening up yourself
he knew you cared for him and loved him, but you had a very difficult time expressing it
SODAPOP CURTIS
you and soda were walking down the street after getting two milkshakes from a diner
the two of you were walking back to your house and he was talking about a weird person who walked into the DX
“so, there was this guy, right. and he walked into the shop, hardly fitting through the doors. and as a reminder, we have double doors, you know? anyway, he ordered a soda and a burger, then when he walked away, me and steve saw his asscrack!!! then guess what steve said! he yelled after the guy, ‘pull up your pants, man!!’” while giggling constantly
you laughed and he lightly hit your shoulder, but you moved away quickly, slouching and looking around the road nervously
he apologized, continuing to talk about other things that happened at the shop, knowing you’d want the conversation to keep going, distracting you
he’s naturally a very touchy person but tries hard not to be physical with you since he knew you would get uncomfortable
DARRY CURTIS
you and darry were at his house, planning to make chocolate cake together, trying to work on collaborating with each other
the two of you were talking while measuring ingredients, putting them into the bowl
“is pony still doing good in school?” you asked, being genuinely curious, looking at your boyfriend for a split second
he nodded, explaining that he was the top of his class and got number one in long jump for his track meet the other day
the two of you continued your conversation, darry passing by you, not before putting a hand on your hip
you cowered and moved away slightly, his hand coming off your hip, apologies coming out of his mouth
“oh, um, it’s ok dare…” you muttered, your boyfriend replying with, “if you don’t want me to do anything, i’ll respect it. just gotta tell me, okay?” and looked at you with worry in his eyes
you smiled at him and continued talking about ponyboy and the gang
he also had a difficult time asking for help, people often expecting a lot for him, more than he could give
so he naturally became independent, just like you
the two of you would try to practice relying on each other, just to get used to being a bit dependent on each other
the two of you knew you didn’t have to be dependent on each other in order to love each other, and you knew that
he would give you little kisses and affectionate actions, but if you pushed him away then he word respect your boundaries
DALLAS WINSTON
the two of you were sitting next to each other in the police station, your boyfriends knee touching yours
the two of you were quiet, but you moved your leg away, not comfortable with the touch
a man with big muscles, wearing a black shirt and jeans came into the station, asking for a y/n l/n and a dallas winston
you recognized him as darry, whispering to your boyfriend that darry was there to pick the two of you up
the officer talked to the both of you, telling you it’s wrong to steal, and recommending that you break up with him, that dally would only get you into more trouble
the two of you previously got arrested for stealing money from someone
you and dally were very alike, both of you hardly asked for help or showed affection in public besides laughing and talking with each other
so you and dally were a good couple and had the same boundaries and expectations
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
you and your boyfriend, keith, were at his house hanging out after school
both of you were in his room and you were helping him out with homework, even though you were younger than him but in a higher grade, him being held back many times
after your boyfriend was done struggling and you were done explaining the questions, you brought out your science homework and stared at it for a couple seconds
two-bit noticed and asked you, “need help, babe?” and you politely shook your head, muttering, “no thank you..”
he watched you struggle and knew you wouldn’t ask for help, he knew you picked up habits from your childhood that caused you to be highly independent
but he understood you more than anyone else did, more than you even understood yourself
keith would try to help you in little ways, things you hardly noticed, like giving you your pencil if you couldn’t find it, or scooping up a cup of flour for your cake
he would, however, often need help himself because he was lazy and didn’t always have a drive for things
STEVE RANDLE
you walked to the DX to see steve, wanting to be with him after a difficult day at school
when you walked into the shop, seeing your boyfriend at the register, you smiled
“hey y/n, didn’t expect to see you here. how’d that test go? i knew you were talking about it for the past few days..” he said
as you walked up to steve, you hesitantly said, “oh, um… i didn’t get that good of a score. eighty-four percent, i’m gonna retake it.” looking away, feeling shameful
steve looked at you, telling you that he could help you study if you wanted it
you turned down his offer, wanting to do everything on your own, he knew you were independent but thought you needed help sometimes, however you wouldn’t let him help you
“you sure? don’t want you to be stressed, no shame in asking for help.” he told you, and you stared at him for a few seconds, saying “thank you, but i’m fine. really. i’ll study for a few days, the retake isn’t until thursday.”
he nodded and looked down, mumbling an “alright” then asked “you wanna go out to eat if you get a good score?” looking at you then smiling
you smiled widely at him and blushed, nodding at his question
he’s a little more stubborn than the rest of the group, so you can get a bit frustrated if he keeps persisting to help you with something
but he just wants to show you that he cares about you, and with the small chance that you’d want help, he would help you
authors note: sorry i didn’t post yesterday! i have a little bit of homework but only have a few more days left of school. i’ll try to get some more requests done this weekend 💗
