PONYBOY CURTIS
because you’re pony’s sister and so close in age, you’re extremely close to each other
you and pony feel like you can tell each other anything even though you’re naturally pretty closed off
the two of you are academically smart and love reading and poems, both of you talking around once a week about a new poem you’ve read and how you felt about it
he began to read edgar allan poe poems, pony giving you a book filled with all of poe’s creations so you could talk about it more
both of you are quiet, sometimes enough to hear a pin drop because you’d rather listen in on conversations rather than interact in them
you prefer to talk to one another in private, both of you being next to each other in several settings but no one seeing you talk to each other
if anyone tried to mess with you or if he hears someone talking shit about you, he’ll ask, “you talkin’ ‘bout my sister?” and give them a sharp glare, a warning not to do it again
JOHNNY CADE
like you, johnny’s very skeptical of things and is always alert of what’s around him
he really enjoys being around you and pony, the three of you aren’t necessarily the closest in age all together but you’re all so different but so alike
he always tries to take care of you like how the gang takes care of him, wanting you to have a better life than he does
he doesn’t necessarily like fighting but will defend you if you get into trouble
the two of you are very aware of everything that is around you, always skeptical of people and not fully trusting others
you’ll talk to one another on whether or not you feel like you should trust a specific person or go to a certain event, knowing some socs might try to jump you
he thinks you’re unsettling at times though, you’ll sleep in the same position the whole night and won’t move in the morning, you basically normally stay still all the time
it also freaks him out that you can be in another room, far away from him then he’ll call your name and you’ll be right next to him
he loves being around you, you’re different from anyone he’s ever met and he really enjoys that
SODAPOP CURTIS
soda protects you all the time and is always with you, the both of you notice nearly everything and hardly miss a detail
even though you and soda aren’t the closest in age, he feels like he can talk to you about anything
he helped you become a little more social and persuaded you to open up to others
the two of you are basically opposites, people will see a handsome guy who’s bubbly and smiling at nearly everyone he sees, then next to him is a girl wearing gothic clothes, quietly observing her surroundings
most of the time, soda picks you up from school and will sometimes drop you off at the DX with him so you can talk together while he’s working
if anyone tries messing with you or makes fun of you, soda sticks up for you and even beats someone up if they try to hurt you
his main goal is for you to know that you aren’t alone, you can talk to him if you feel the need to or just to talk about your problems
you voice your concerns and tell him he can always come to you too if he needs to, being with him makes you feel full and happy inside even though others don’t see it
DARRY CURTIS
although you were like neither of your parents, darry feels the most obligated to take care of you
because you are the only girl in the family, he takes extra precautions to make sure you’re safe wherever you go
you’re his favorite sibling because i said so
since you know he has a lot of weight on his shoulders because he feels the need to take care of you and your siblings, you try to listen to him so his job can be easier
he gets a bit frustrated sometimes because you don’t show emotions as often as others, it causes him to wonder if you are actually mentally okay
but one day, darry asks you if you’d like to help out with the cake even though he was expecting you to say no
but you say yes, the two of you begin to make the cake and by the time it’s in the oven, there’s flour on the countertops and you thank him, “thanks for asking me to help you, darry.” not even directly looking at him but the appreciation was visible
he then realized you were capable of emotion, as was he although the two of you were viewed as people who never showed their feelings
DALLAS WINSTON
dally thinks your style is so cool, he occasionally swipes something from your favorite clothing store and gives it to you
the two of you actually really get along because it’s hard to tell if you care about him and if he cares about you
the both of you show it in small ways though like when you speak about how much you appreciate the time you have with him
or when he notices and points out a new shirt or accessory you’re wearing, knowing you like to be noticed in that way
you’re one of the kids he can actually tolerate and get along with
if he hears someone talking bad about you then they end up going home with a broken rib
he taught you how to fight, giving you a switchblade with good qualities and looks to your liking
he honestly gets really freaked out when you appear out of nowhere, he’ll be talking to johnny then will turn around to see you looking up at him
you always wear some type of covering over your eyes, whether it’s bangs or sunglasses, dally will let you borrow his sometimes
TWO-BIT MATHEWS
keith likes how you feel free to act however with no shame, socs stay away from you because you’re a little kid and they believe you know too much
basically, they just don’t beat you up or anything because they think you can do way more than others are aware of
sometimes you’ll go over to keith’s house so you can play with his sister, he loves how the two of you get along well
you’ve also protected her from getting hurt, her brother really appreciates that
he thinks your style is pretty cool because you’ll dress sort of gothic, he wonders where you get those clothes and sometimes steals some for you
once, he asked the gang if they wanted to go to a pool where it was mostly socs, all of the others were busy but you went with him
he expected you to just put your feet in but you came out with a full on swimsuit
he didn’t know you were capable of having fun, but you later confessed you just wanted to spend time with him
he also tries to make you laugh with his jokes, most of the time you only smile at them though
STEVE RANDLE
when steve first met you he fucking hated you, then he grew to appreciate you
he never really had a reason to dislike you, but gave in and started to get closer with you when soda had told him you were cool
steve finds your monotone voice pretty calming, he likes having full on conversations with you and talking about cars
probably thought you were a sociopath up until you researched more about cars so you could talk about it with him, you told him about it
he then realized you actually cared about the friendship and begins to appreciate you more
he’s surprised when you tell him you listen to death metal, he expected you to listen to angsty music
although he dislikes ponyboy, he enjoys being around you and wants you to hang out with the gang as a group
he gets really pissed off when people make fun of you, always defending your name and getting all up in their faces if something bad is connected to you
I absolutely love your writing omg, your blog is so cute too
the way i’ve had two people whose writing i’ve loved send me ask things and ur one of them 😭😭 your writing is literally amazing!! thank you so much too :3 💗
hiii i was wondering if you could do a dally fic where the reader is a part of the gang and her and dally are super close and the gang is making plans to go to the drive in but reader doesn't wanna walk so she asks dally for a piggyback (he obviously says yes cause he's down bad for her) but anyways, he gets super cocky by saying stuff like "askin' old dal for a ride, huh?" and then the gang starts teasing them for it (this is my first req ever so sorry if it's bad lmao😣)
pairings: dally x reader
summary: you are too tired to walk to the drive in, so dally carries you
warnings: cussing
authors note: i looked forward to this request so this is one of my favorites i’ve ever been asked to make! thank you so much for requesting this. i decided to change the layout a bit but does it look ok? also sorry this is kinda short💗 i hope you enjoy

you and the gang were sitting on the couch in the curtis house, bored out of your minds. you sat next to dally, your legs laying on his lap as you stared at the ceiling.
steve then asked, “hey, you guys know about that new movie that’s comin’ out today? it’s gonna be on in ‘round an hour, i’m goin’.” soda chimed in, saying he wanted to join too. soon, the others began to voice how they wanted to see the movie too.
everyone had spoken besides you, dally noticed and looked at you, placing his hand on your calf. “you gonna go too?” he asked, looking at you up and down.
you responded, “not sure, my legs are really sore… i was walkin’ around town with my friend the whole day.”
dally began to rub your calf in a caring way, he softly suggested, “how ‘bout i carry you or somethin’? that way you can still go, yeah?”
you thought for a second before nodding your head and thanking him. you and the gang had around twenty minutes to spare before you had to start heading over to the drive in.
you continued to watch the movie you were already watching, it ending around fifteen minutes later. two-bit suggested, “should probably head over now, it’ll take around… what, ten minutes? so then we’ll be like… half an hour early? is that right?”
the gang responded in different ways, nodding and talking. all of you stood up from the couch, stretching and groaning before walking out the door. dally turned to you as you stood up, taking a moment while you cracked your back.
“get on my back.” he says, bending down slightly as you jump on his back. he walks out as you rest your cheek on his back, tired and still wanting to rest.
“needed old dal to help you, huh baby?” he asked, teasing you. as your arms are wrapped around his neck, you let go to lightly push his back, mumbling, “shut up…”
he thought for a second, smirking as the gang was looking at the two of you. he decided to tease you again, “couldn’t do it on your own, huh? and out of all people, you decided to choose me to carry you. could’ve asked anyone else…”
“maybe i should’ve asked someone else… but you’re so strong, dal. so handsome, manly…” you tease, he blushes as the gang begin to tease him too.
“god, get a room, you two! don’t have to be all lovesick all the damn time.”
“why are you guys kinda cute together…”
“dally’s got the hots for y/n!”
“man, dally probably thinks he’s her knight in shinin’ armor!”
he rolls his eyes, still walking as the both of you are blushing, “shut the fuck up, man.”
Hey! Could you do something about the greasers going to a fair or some kind of event and there’s a kissing booth where reader works? Thanks!
authors note: the heading might be misleading but basically, this post is about the gang and reader going to a fair or them going to a kissing booth where reader works or new year’s eve where the greasers and reader kiss. something like that! sorry if this doesn’t really go with what you asked for, i hope you enjoy though! i’m literally so FUCKING pissed because i just had to write dally’s section and nothing saved!! it’s probably gonna be obvious which ones didn’t save and which ones didn’t, i kinda rushed this once i figured out not all of this saved. enjoy though💗

PONYBOY CURTIS
you and ponyboy were at school, sitting in your homeroom together, talking before the teacher loudly said, “class!! as you may have heard, you are going to be paired up with someone in the class, you are to take care of an egg together for a week. the condition of your egg will determine what your final grade will be. take care of the egg like it is your child, if you break it, you will automatically be failed. i have twelve eggs in this carton and will be putting your initials on the bottom of it to make sure no one replaces their egg. and i have decorations here,” she held up a bag, “you and your partner can decorate the egg however you want, which… unfortunately, includes drawing eyes or whatever on it, no inappropriate stuff.”
ponyboy leaned closer to you, whispering into your ear, “i hope we’re paired up, we can’t choose though…” and you nodded, whispering back, “yeah, i think any of the other boys would break the egg…” you heard your boyfriend giggle, a smile forming on your face
the teacher taped a big piece of paper to the whiteboard, stating, “your names are paired together on the paper. go to your partner and decide what the egg’s name will be and how you will decorate it.” then she walked back to her desk, all of the students erupting, words spilling out of their mouths
you looked for your name, seeing it was next to ponyboy’s, reading “y/n and ponyboy”
you tapped your boyfriend’s shoulder, telling him the two of you were together for the project
he gasped, exclaiming, “oh cool, we’re together!! let’s go get our egg from mrs. johnson!!” he sat up from his chair and grabbed your hand, gently dragging you to the front of the classroom
the teacher looked up at the both of you, grabbing an egg from the carton, writing a ‘PC’ and your initials on the bottom of the egg
you let out a “thank you!” and walked back to your desk, taking multiple colored sharpies out of your backpack and showing ponyboy, asking him “what color should the eyes be?”
he thought for a moment and decided, “your eye color! then maybe the hair can be brown-ish red, like mine?”
nodding, you drew eyes on the egg, along with a smile underneath them
you and ponyboy talked about the project and how you would plan out days for when the egg would be with him, and when the egg would be with you
he picked up a brown sharpie and a red sharpie, drawing hair on the top of the egg
“wait, what should the egg’s name be?” your boyfriend asked, you looked at the egg and tilted your head slightly, awkwardly asking, “uhhh… michael…? i don’t know…” you giggled
ponyboy smiled at you and agreed, replying, “yeah, i like that name. i honestly want to name my kid michael— i mean, when i have kids, that is.” he laughed
the day passed by quickly, ponyboy took the egg for the school day and the two of you went to your house after
his backpack was on his back, michael in his hands
when the two of you reached your house, you crocheted a little blanket for the egg, making it harder for it to crack and break
you placed michael in the blanket, putting him on your desk
after a few hours of studying and hanging out, ponyboy left your house, the egg still on your desk
the two of you would switch off having michael each day, and by next monday, the two of you were in homeroom again, with michael in your hands
you looked around, some of the pairs had no egg, some had eggs with cracks, one of them breaking on the table, and one other pair had a perfect egg, just like michael
“hey, i think we’re one of the two pairs that have our egg still intact!!” you beamed
he smiled, looking around the classroom and agreed, “holy shit, we’re amazing!!”
the teacher began walking to each pairs’ desks, she reached yours and was holding a clipboard
she picked up your egg and examined michael, checking if there were any cracks and if the initials were how she had written them
“good job, you two. a hundred percent! you might actually be decent parents one day.” she said, giving an approving smile and moving to the next desk behind you
you turned to ponyboy, seeing him already looking towards you, both of you smiling at each other
“we got an A!!! we did amazing, pony!!!” you exclaimed, he agreed and commented, “we might be the only people who got really good grades!!”
before the end of the school day, mrs. johnson pulled you and ponyboy aside in the hallway
“i just want you two to know that you are the only ones who got perfect scores. for getting perfect scores, you will get extra credit. i’ve noticed both of you, and i know you’re a couple. it’s not a bad thing, but if the other teachers see you kissing or showing too much affection, you might just get in trouble. but anyways, you’re free to go. good job, you two.” she said
you started blushing, both of you thanked the teacher and walked away towards your house
the two of you continued to talk about when you could hang out next, also about the project and how darry and soda would love to see you again
the two of you arrived at your house a few minutes later, you unlocked the door with your keys and opened the door
you and ponyboy walked upstairs to your room and sat on the bed, dropping your backpacks on the floor, you hesitantly asked, “do you think we’d really make good parents, or was she just saying that..?”
“i’m sure we’d be great parents. eggs crack easily, that means we were very gentle, so it’s good! don’t worry about it.” he smiled at you
you looked at him with a loving look in your eyes, putting your hands on his chest and leaning in for a kiss
the kiss was savored, different from how the two of you had kissed before, this was more intimate, more loving
when both of you pulled away from the kiss, ponyboy pulled out a book from his backpack and began to read to you, you had seemed tired the whole day
he was laying on your bed and you were curled up into him, becoming more exhausted by the second
when you fell asleep and he looked at you, you looked peaceful
he put his bookmark in his book, giving you a kiss on the forehead and wrapping his arms around you
JOHNNY CADE
your boyfriend was bored and laying in his bed at home, twisting and turning, not knowing what to do
he sat up when he decided what he would do, remembering you were at a market nearby, trying to promote a small business
so he got up from his bed and changed from his sleep clothes to jeans, a black shirt and a denim jacket
he quietly walked and closed his bedroom door, trying to be spared from a confrontation from his parents
he walked to the front door, looking around before grabbing his shoes and slipping them on, tying the shoelaces
opening the door and walking out, he turned around and gently grabbed the doorknob, twisting it and quietly closing the door
he walked towards the direction of the market, only a few blocks away
when johnny arrived at the market, many vendors were there, food, clothing, other products, animals, etc
he went there to see you, you worked at a kissing booth, and he knew you would make a lot of money because you were known to be very beautiful
he walked down the isle, looking around to see if you were anywhere near or if you would like anything from the vendors
after walking for a while, he saw your booth with around three people in line, most of them came hours ago
you were about to close up the booth soon, so one of the boys in line gave you two dollars, plus a six dollar tip, you quickly gave him a kiss, being tired and just wanting to see your boyfriend again
you repeated the process two more times when the last one walked away with a “thanks,” johnny being right behind the man
“hey, think i could get two kisses? i’m feeling kind of… lonely…” he looked at you with a playful smile, he was still nervous although the two of you were boyfriend and girlfriend
“four dollars,” you said and looked up at him, “i’m just kidding, johnny…” you walked around the stand and put your hands on his face, leaning in for a kiss
he awkwardly and nervously placed his hands on your waist, wrapping them around your midsection
after the two of you pulled away from the kiss, you looked up at him, seeing his face turn into a shade of red, he avoided eye contact
you teasingly kissed his cheek, then placed a few onto his neck, you pulled away and asked him, “you ready to go home now, baby?”
he nodded and asked you, “so, how was your day??” before telling you about his
SODAPOP CURTIS
the two of you were at the fair, wanting to spend some time together for your first new years as a couple
you and soda previously went on many rides and rollercoasters, having fun and giggling the whole time, screaming random things while other people stared at you
after another rollercoaster ride, your boyfriend wrapped an arm around your shoulder, asking, “hey, babe, wanna go to the ferris wheel? i wanted to go there with you before the end of the day, then maybe we can get some food?” looking at you intently
you smiled at him, replying, “sure soda! we can go, i was gonna ask you that too!! i think the ferris wheel is over there.” pointing in front of the two of you
he took his arm off your shoulder and grabbed your hand in a loving gesture
“i hope this doesn’t take too long, i don’t want darry to get mad at me or anything. but if we’re here past 12, then it’s worth it. i’d be with you, anyway.” smiling and winking at you at the end
you giggled at his comment and continued, “oh, shut up… you’re too sweet, soda…” smiling and looking up at him, kissing his cheek softly
the two of you got to the line where the ferris wheel was, and your boyfriend muttered, “oh, boy…”
you and soda waited for around ten minutes before getting to the front of the line
one of the workers scanned your wristband, letting you go inside one of the capsules, your boyfriend right behind you
you sat on the right side of the capsule and your boyfriend sat on the left, both of you continuing to talk about drama that happened in your school and in the DX
the ferris wheel started to move, people got off the capsules and people got on, creating a new rotation of people to be on the ferris wheel at the same time
the cycle repeated until no one from the last rotation was on the ferris wheel, and it began to move in a circular motion with no pauses
“yayyy!! i always love being on here, you can see so much from up here!!” you rejoiced, soda agreed and commented on what you had said
after a few rotations of spinning around, the conductor began to let people off of the ferris wheel
eventually, your capsule was at the top, and you told soda, “thank you for asking me to go here with you. i’ve really enjoyed it, i’m happy i get to spend new years with you.” looking at him sweetly
the two of you heard people counting down from ten, both of you looked at each other, thinking the same thing
“five, four, three, two,” people cheered, and when they said ‘one,’ your boyfriend said, “i love you so much.” both of you leaned over to each other and kissed
your hand was on his cheek, his hand was on your other hand in your lap
once the two of you pulled away from the kiss, you opened your eyes and saw his expression, remembering what ponyboy said, “he’s always talking about you, y/n. getting drunk on just plain living, but it’s even better when he’s with you. everyone can tell. he loves you.”
the ferris wheel began to rotate, and eventually, both of you got off of the capsule, hand in hand
the rides were closing so the two of you walked towards the parking lot where your car was
“you know, it was my plan to have that happen. i was worried we wouldn’t be at the top at that specific moment.” soda confessed, chuckling at the end
“aww, you’re so romantic, hon!! i love you so much… thanks for spending new years with me…” you said, blushing at his words
he replied, “i love you too baby…” knowing he was the luckiest guy on earth to have someone like you
DARRY CURTIS
you were in your house when you got a call, you picked up the phone from your couch and asked, “y/n l/n, what do you need?”
a voice from the other side stated, “hey y/n, it’s ponyboy. i was wondering if you could come over to help me with homework? it’s due tomorrow and darry’s gone…”
you replied with, “i’ll be there in five, don’t worry.” and hung up, grabbing your keys and putting on your shoes, walking outside to your car, turning the keys, causing your car to start
you drove in the direction of darry’s house, knowing the way all too well
when you arrived, you walked into the house, the door being unlocked, and saw your boyfriends youngest brother in the kitchen, sitting at the dinner table with a packet and pencil
he looked up from his work and smiled, you walked over to him and looked at the packet, asking him if he knew the formula for the question he was struggling on
you corrected him and taught him all the correct formulas and ways to solve the problems, before you two knew it, he was done with the packet
then you two heard the door open, you looked over to see darry smiling at the two of you
he took off his shoes and gently closed the door, walked towards you and his brother, he asked, “hey you two. pony, how was school? and as much as i love your company, y/n, what are you doing here?” kissing your forehead and ruffling his brothers hair, chuckling
“ah, school was okay. your girl’s here because i asked her to come over to help me with my homework. i got it done, since you always talk about how she’s really smart, i doubt you have to check my answers” ponyboy replied
darry smiled at him and looked at the clock, frowning and stating, “shit, pony, it’s late— you ought to be in bed right now, pack up your backpack, go sleep.”
his brother got up from his chair, thanked, “thank you y/n. you’re really smart.” and left to go to his room, he closed the door as quick as he had opened it
you hardly got any time to say anything, but as soon as darry heard the door close, his lips were on yours and your hands were on his chest
the kiss was long and passionate, when the two of you pulled away, he had a look in his eyes
you lightly punched his shoulder and commented, “your brother needs to sleep, dare.”
he chuckled at what you said and gave you a kiss on the cheek
DALLAS WINSTON
you were upstairs in your boyfriends room, he was partying downstairs and had a few drinks
“wh-wheres my girlfriend, man…” he kept mumbling, asking people around him where you were
“jesus christ, dally, she’s upstairs.” buck finally answered, dally still being confused, asking where the stairs were
buck pointed to where the stairs were and your boyfriend walked past many people, slouching and just wanting to see you
he cracked open the door to see you on his bed, he had a worried look on his face
“awwwh, hi dal… you okay, baby?” you talked softly getting up off the bed and opening the door, inviting him to come in
he consciously walked into the bedroom, looking around before setting his gaze on you
you gently took his hand in yours and sat him on the bed, he still had that pouty look on his face, almost puppy eyes looking at you
“you okay, dal? do you want anything, you feeling okay…?” you whispered to him, however he didn’t respond
he just leaned into a kiss, wrapping his arms around your midsection and kissing your cheeks down to your neck, to your collarbone and trying to go lower
“aww, baby… i don’t think we should, don’t want you to do something you’ll regret, okay?” you suggested
he started whining and complaining, kicking his feet like a child, something dally would never do if he was sober, you couldn’t wait to tell him about that in the morning
you laid down on the bed and he laid down next to you, his head near your chest, a pouty look still on his face
you didn’t know how to make him look happier, so you leaned down a bit and put your hand on his cheek, giving him a long and passionate kiss, feeling him trying to get closer to you, leaning more into the kiss if that was even possible
when you pulled away from the kiss, he was smiling and looked at you lovingly, he wrapped an arm around you and a leg around yours, mumbling an, “i love you…” before drifting off to sleep
you smiled at him, this was the only time he actually looked peaceful, when he was asleep
you protectively put an arm around him and put your chin above his head, drifting off to sleep too
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
you and keith were at your house, you were baking in your kitchen when your boyfriend asked, “hey, um, wanna go to this comedy thing with me at a restaurant today? i think it’d be fun, you don’t gotta go if you don’t wanna though.” looking a bit nervous
you looked at him for a few seconds before excitedly agreeing, “sure!!!” you’re ent back to measuring ingredients for brownies and mixed them
two-bit measured the dry ingredients and poured them into the dry mix, mixing them together and pouring it into a square pan
you had previously set the temperature to 350 fahrenheit, so you put on kitchen mittens and grabbed the pan, pushing it into the oven
you put the timer for twenty five minutes for the brownies to bake, and in the meantime, you and keith talked about his sister
after the timer went off, you turned off the alarm and lowered the oven temperature, opening the oven and taking out the pan after putting on your kitchen mittens
“the show’s in around an hour, should probably get dressed so we can leave soon. it’ll take about twenty minutes to drive there.” your boyfriend commented, you nodded and gave him a kiss before walking up to your bedroom
after you looked through your wardrobe and picked out an outfit, you walked to your bathroom to brush your teeth and fix your hair
you then walked downstairs and stated, “i’m ready!!” to see keith on the couch, waiting for you
he looked up and saw you, his jaw dropped and gasped, “jesus… you look stunning…” and chuckled
you giggled and walked over to him, grabbing his hand after you grabbed your wallet
you walked outside to your car, locking your house door and getting inside the car
the two of you buckled your seatbelts and steve turned on the radio, elvis was playing
you arrived at the restaurant around thirty minutes later due to traffic and raced to the entrance
the worker at the cashier greeted you, “hello, do you two have a reservation?”
“uh, yeah, we have a reservation for keith. two people.” your boyfriend replied
the worker told you to take a seat wherever, but it was difficult to find space, the restaurant was packed
the both of you walked around and eventually sat down at a booth on opposite sides, looking at the menu while talking about the setup
after you two decided what you were getting, a waitress came over and exclaimed, “hello, my name is sarah and i’ll be your waitress for today! what can i get started for you?” and wrote down on her notepad while keith ordered, then you ordered
“alright, i’ll be back in around thirty minutes with your meals!” she replied
the two of you continued with your conversation and had your drinks, around ten minutes without food, the comedian came out and thanked everyone for being at the restaurant
he started telling jokes, you and keith would look at each other whenever something was funny
you knew he really liked that comedian, so you were joyful to see him enjoying this
around twenty minutes later, the comedian was still talking and sarah came to the table with your food, quietly stating, “enjoy, you two!”
you thanked her and began gnawing on your food, nearly starving, two-bit almost spat out his food due to laughing, almost making you choke
around an hour after being at the restaurant, the comedian thanked everyone for being there, once again, and left
you and two-bit were finished with your food, sarah came by with the check and you pulled out your wallet, giving her a twenty dollar tip plus what you were supposed to pay
“alright, ready keith?” you asked, smiling at him, he nodded, feeling sleepy because he was stuffed with food
the two of you walked out of the restaurant hand in hand all the way to the car
you sat in the drivers seat and put the keys in, twisting it and turning the car on, keith in the passengers seat
both of you talked about how funny the comedian was and how you’d love to go again with him sometime while you were driving to your boyfriends house
when you arrived at his house, you walked him up to the entrance, pausing and looking at him for a couple seconds
“thank you for asking me to go with you, keith. i really love spending time with you…” you smiled, blushing at the thought of the two of you in the romantic situation
he smiled and looked away, a little nervous, then you pulled him in for a kiss and put your hands on his shoulders, his hands on your hips
when you pulled away, you smiled at him and walked back to your car
he watched you pull out of the parking space, waving at you before you fully left
he thought about how much he enjoyed being with you, he loved you so much and wanted to spend more time with you
STEVE RANDLE
you and steve were walking to a field where you would watch a firework show, it was the fourth of july and he wanted to celebrate
“yeah, this crazy lady came into the DX and was like ‘i deserve all this money because i’ve been in america for 15 years!!’ and me and soda looked at each other, because why the fuck would anyone think that…” he said, genuinely confused
“maybe she had a mental problem..” you shrugged
steve loved how you would always try to see the good in people, or maybe a reason why they act like why they do, a reason to think someone’s a good person
anyway, the two of you arrived at the field and saw hundreds of people, some sitting on blankets and some sitting on the grass, some laying down and some standing up
after walking around, the two of you saw an empty space, you placed your blanket onto the ground and sat down next to your boyfriend
the two of you were talking when the first firework exploded after ten minutes of nothing, people clapping and saying ‘america’ ‘USA’ ‘i’m gonna shit my pants that looks so cool’
after forty minutes of many fireworks and loud noises, there was a loud voice coming from a speaker, saying, “alright, this is our final firework folks! we hope you have a great rest of your night! happy fourth of july!”
multiple red, white and blue fireworks shot up into the air with loud ‘boom’s, many people ‘ooo’ing and ‘woahhh’ing
you looked to your left to see steve staring up at the fireworks, believing he felt at peace for the first time in a long time
he noticed you staring and smirked, looking at your eyes then your lips, putting his hand on your cheek and giving you a kiss
you kissed him back, and when the two of you pulled away, you put your head in his shoulder
the fireworks were still going, and steve said, “i love you, y/n.”
you replied quietly, “i love you too, stevie.” knowing his friends made fun of him for that nickname, he chuckled at it
authors note: god, the way my jaw fucking dropped when i opened tumblr back up and saw more than half of my progress gone LMAO. sorry this is posted late, hope you guys enjoyed.

you awoke from your deep sleep, a loud ringing noise coming from your nightstand. you sighed, the ringing still continued so you turned to your side and moved closer to the side of your bed.
you wondered, ‘who could be calling me this early?’ it was seven in the morning, you wanted to get up around ten so you could make some sweets for the gang.
after some pondering, you carefully picked up the telephone, groggily mumbling, “who is this..?” you then heard a distinct but gentle laugh coming from the other side of the line.
“awh, doll… did you just wake up?” dally asked, a slightly teasing tone to his voice. you smiled at the nickname, one he would call you often. you missed being in the warmth of his arms, as you were the night before.
you replied, “mhm… i miss you, dal…” he chuckled softly, knowing you would always act like this. always missing him, somehow even when the two of you were together.
“miss you too, sweetheart… say, uh, me and the guys are gonna be hangin’ at the curtis house, ‘round two, you wanna come?” he asked, secretly hoping that you would be there. at the moment, he dreaded to be apart from you. he wanted to be with you as soon as possible.
you thought for a second and appreciated your boyfriend was considerate enough to invite you. you then gasped, “aww, you wanna see meee? i’ll go then, i wanna see you too!” blushing at the thought of the two of you physically being together.
dally smiled at your comment, when he first met you, he didn’t exactly love how happy you always were. he later grew to love it, you had changed his mindset and he started to look forward to every day in the future.
“i got some errands to run, doll. i’ll let you go back to your beauty sleep.” he replied, not quite answering your question although you already knew the answer.
you sighed, “okay, thank you. don’t do anything that’ll get you in trouble. love you, handsome.” you always loved to compliment dally, it’d obviously boost his ego, but he wasn’t even aware that he was completely wrapped around your finger. he was head over heels for you.
“mm… can’t promise anything. look forward to seeing you, doll. go to bed.” he hung up, you put the telephone back on the stand and sighed. you set your alarm for ten in the morning, still wanting to make sweets for the gang.
you turned once again to sleep on your back, closing your eyes and calming down, thinking about what could happen at the curtis house. you had a hard time falling asleep, you turned to your other side to see the dip in the bed where dally once was. moving over to his side, you curled up into a ball, falling asleep only a few minutes later.
a recognizable beeping sound filled your ears, the sound of an alarm clock. you turned to your side, eyes still closed when you reached your arm to press a button and turn the alarm clock off.
you kept your eyes closed for a few more minutes, still not fully awake. you then opened your eyes and put your cheek on your pillow, staring at the wall.
you slowly sat up in bed and swung your legs over the side. gently brushing hair out of your face, you stood up and stayed there for a few minutes, not yet ready to walk around.
when you were, you began to walk to the bathroom, opening the door and walking in. you picked up your toothbrush and turned the water on, placing it under and turning the water off, once again. pulling out the toothpaste out from drawer, you put some on your toothbrush and began brushing your teeth.
after two minutes, you took the brush out of your mouth and spit out the toothpaste. you rinsed your mouth out with water then rinsed your toothbrush. you placed it on the countertop and walked out of the room.
you walked down the hallway to the stairs, going down step by step. once you were downstairs, you began to take flour and other ingredients out of the pantry. once all of them were on the counter, you began to make chocolate cupcakes for the gang.
you mixed the ingredients together and poured the batter into individual cupcake sections after lining each one. you put the cupcake pans into the oven, timing it to bake for twenty minutes.
as it was baking, you made chocolate icing to put on top of the cupcakes themself. you thought of dally, how you missed him dearly and you wanted him to love the cupcakes you were making. when the timer beeped, meaning the cupcakes were done, you stopped the timer with a button and opened the drawer, grabbing mittens. once you put them on, you opened up the oven and pulled the cupcake pans out, you gently placed them on a rack to cool down.
because the cupcake icing was done, there was nothing else to do besides wait for the cupcakes to cool off. while they were cooling down, you put a vinyl on to play, a single made by the crystals. ‘then he kissed me,’ it was called. it reminded you of you and dallas, how he could be so cold to others but was an absolute sweetheart to you.
as the music was playing for a few minutes, you looked at the clock, it was around eleven. you hovered your hand over the cupcakes to see if they were the right temperature, heat wasn’t radiating off of them. you grabbed a piping bag and put the icing into it, icing each cupcake individually.
in order to finish it off and make it look perfect, you took a small container out to the cupboard. it was filled with pink, red and white heart shaped sprinkles. you grabbed another container next to it, one that was filled with bigger pink sprinkles, shaped like bows.
you sprinkled the hearts onto the cupcakes, making sure they all looked nice and equal before putting it down. you then poured the bigger bow sprinkles into your hands, in your opinion, each cupcake only needed one because it was larger than the other sprinkles. you individually placed the bow sprinkles on the frosting, getting some on your fingers and licking it off.
you then backed up from the counter and looked at it, satisfied with your work. you bent down to get a big container, putting it on the counter and placing the cupcakes in it. you left one for yourself, taking off the liner and eating it. you were surely pleased with how it tasted and how it looked, you just hoped the gang would like them too.
grabbing a lid from the cabinet, you put it on the container and opened the fridge, putting it on one of the shelves. you looked back at the clock, it was around 11:40. you had around an hour and a half to rest before you had to get ready to go to the curtis house.
in that hour and a half, you finished a book that you’ve been wanting to read again. when you glanced to the clock, it was around 1:10, you closed your book and placed it in your nightstand.
you then get up from your bed and walk to your dresser, opening the drawers and pulling out a shirt you know dally likes. grabbing bottoms of your choice, you pick up some white socks that would look good with your heels.
you began to get dressed. as you were brushing your teeth, you walked outside your bathroom to once again, check the clock. it was around 1:40, almost time for you to drive to the curtis house. when you were done brushing your teeth, you walked downstairs and to the kitchen. you opened up the fridge, gently taking out the cupcake container and placing it on the counter.
you then walked to the entrance of your house, grabbing your heels and putting them on your feet. as you walked back to the kitchen, you grabbed the cupcake container and your keys.
walking outside and therefore exiting your house, you locked up the house and continued walking to your car, parked in the driveway. you unlocked your car, opening the door to the drivers seat and putting the cupcake container in the passengers seat.
as you began to drive in the direction of the curtis house, you saw your boyfriend seemingly walking to your house. your eyebrows furrowed, wondering why he was here.
he looks in your direction as you pull over, closer to him. he leans into the rolled down window and puts his hand on the roof of the car, “hey, baby..” smiling at you sweetly.
you smiled at him back, blushing once again at the nickname and asking, “why are you here, hun? it’s not exactly safe for you to be in a soc neighborhood. don’t want you to get hurt, dal… no one’s following you, right?”
he mumbles at the beginning, “worried about me, huh, baby..? don’t think anyone’s following me, and if someone was,” he leaned in closer to your face, lips only a few inches apart, “i’d beat the shit out of them, you know that.”
looking up at him, you order, “get in.” gesturing to the passengers seat, you grab the cupcakes container and gently place it in the back seats.
he states, “yes ma’am.” and walks around the side of the car, opening the door and sitting in the passengers seat. he notices how the seat is perfect for him, his legs aren’t as cramped as they used to be.
you state as you begin to drive, “pushed the seat back for you ‘cause you used to complain about it so damn much.” he rolled his eyes, smiling and gently placing his hand on the hem of your shirt, fidgeting with it.
at a stop light, you’re behind a few cars when dally leans over and softly grabs your face, turning it towards him. he kisses you gently and continues to go back for kisses, him initiating contact until cars behind you start to honk.
the light has already turned green, you pull away from the kiss and drive to the curtis house. the two of you arrive at the house, you park your pink car nearby, trying to somewhat hide it though obviously failing. dark colors are all around, the odd one out is a light pink mustang on the side of the road.
you get up out of your car, opening the back door and picking up the cupcake container and carrying it. dallas is right behind you, making you jump and he chuckled because of you. you lightly bump his shoulder, mumbling, “shut up.”
he gently grabs the container from the bottom out of your hands, beginning to talk to you and asking what’s in the container. you state, “oh, they’re chocolate cupcakes! pony and soda are always talking about chocolate cake, so i guessed they’d like chocolate cupcakes too! decided to bring some for the whole gang.” you smile up at your boyfriend.
he smiles down at you, “ain’t you a peach? you’re too sweet for me, doll.” he loves how sweet you always are, you always thought of others before yourself, wondering if things were safe before letting yourself and others do something. too good, too pure for him. all of your kindness made people attracted to you, romantically and platonically. he was so glad the gang accepted you right away when he told them the two of you were dating.
you continue to talk as your boyfriend looks at you, love apparent in his eyes. he opens the door up for you, letting you walk in first. loudness quickly fills your ears, two-bit exclaiming, “the fuck? dally’s opening doors for people, being a gentleman? since when?”
your boyfriend closed the door behind him, “since y/n came along, dipshit.” he replied. darry, two-bit, soda and steve greeted you and dally as the two of you came in. as you walk to the kitchen, you gently take the container out of dally’s hands, thanking him for carrying it. you then place it on the counter, johnny and pony immediately swarming around to see what you have.
“hey, y/n, whatcha got there?” johnny asks, pony agreeing and greeting you too. you smile at the both of them, dally’s hand moving to your waist, rubbing soothingly up and down.
you softly reply, “oh, it’s just chocolate cupcakes. you guys can have some if you want, it’s for all of you—“ you paused, really looking at johnny and asking, “oh, johnny, what happened to your cheek? are you okay?” you’re concerned, he had told you it was a few socs who beat him up, rings cutting his face.
as dally listens in on the conversation, observing you the whole time, he feels a sense of aggression while you were concerned for johnny. he doesn’t know how to describe it, he doesn’t want to actually hurt you, but he needs to find a way to relieve the emotion he was feeling.
so he grips your waist a little harder, pony looking at the point of contact and whispering to johnny, “think we should leave. they’re gettin’ a little handsy.” causing his friend to also look at the point of contact, he grins and looks at dally. “we’ll be in the livin’ room.”
the two walk away chuckling with each other while you don’t know why they left. as soon as the two of them turn their backs, your boyfriend kisses you on the cheek then to the lips. he slightly pushes you towards the counter, continuing to kiss you.
“you’re so adorable, baby… so important to me…” he mumbled in between kisses, your hands on his chest. you wince at the pain on your waist, mumbling, “dal, you’re hurting my waist a bit. little softer, hun.”
he softens his grip at your command, whispering an apology. the two of you were interrupted by darry loudly stating, “hey,” trying to get your attention, “you do that, you go back to your damn house.”
you look back, sensing dally was trying his hardest not to physically hurt you. the both of you chuckled at the interruption, you leaned into your boyfriend, tilting your head up to get a kiss from him. this time, the kiss was soft and passionate, savored.
once the two of you pulled away, you were once again, interrupted, this time with many boys running into the kitchen to try the chocolate cupcakes.

warnings: cussing
PONYBOY CURTIS
pony likes someone who can both yap and listen, he enjoys hearing you talk about things and how you get excited and smile, but he also loves talking to you and ranting, he appreciates someone who can listen to when he gets really excited over small things or in general
one of the first things he looks for in a person is their intelligence, if one is smarter than the other then he wouldn’t want to feel stupid or you to feel bad that you’re not as smart as him
he prefers studying together if the both of you are at the same level and classes in school
that way the two of you can have in depth conversations that he can’t have with others because they don’t know as much as he does
JOHNNY CADE
he always felt like he needed emotional support so if you can provide that for him, he’s all over you
along with someone who shows affection in public and isn’t ashamed, whether it’s complimenting him, hugging him or giving him gifts
johnny extremely values people who are loyal to him, someone who won’t leave at the first sense of danger or sadness, instead tries to work out the problem and continue communicating
he gets nervous when confrontation is involved, but communicating lets him know you care and love him, because if you didn’t care, you wouldn’t talk to him about whatever’s bothering you
johnny loves someone who is respectful of boundaries, he never really knew how to make his own because he never had them in the first place, his parents didn’t care enough to restrict him from doing anything
so if you notice he’s uncomfortable with something you’re or someone else is doing, you’ll stop or tell them to stop and he’ll love you even more
SODAPOP CURTIS
soda likes people who are good listeners and pick up on little details, like an observer
he just wants people to realize that he has problems too and wants to be listened to, someone who will check up on him randomly or if he looks sad
if you’re a naturally encouraging and grateful person, basically a bubbly happy person, then you have a huge chance that he’ll like you
he tries to be around people who make life a lot easier and happier, someone who gives him something to look forward to the next day and a reason to keep living
soda isn’t that picky about his type and values personality way more than looks
he loves someone who is upbeat, he doesn’t care if someone gets annoyed because he loves being around you
DARRY CURTIS
darry loves someone who is very patient, he can get very occupied sometimes because of work and basically raising his brothers, so it’s very time consuming and he’d love it if his partner is patient
also if you help him out with pony and soda, like buying groceries or making them food or simply taking them places, although he’ll feel bad that he’s not doing the work, he’ll appreciate whatever you do for him or his siblings
he likes it if you cherish the time you and him have together because it’s so little, so quality time is very important to him
whenever the two of you have time, the both of you will try to work something out that the both of you like, so if you’re good at compromising then he likes that
that way the two of you can do what you want but together
DALLAS WINSTON
he really appreciates someone who can stand up for themselves, basically an assertive person who isn’t afraid to express what they want and stuff
dally makes a lot of mistakes so he wants someone who is forgiving, he can get frustrated though if you don’t forgive him immediately
but he hates apologizing first and sees it as a weakness, he learns his lesson after you don’t talk to him for a few days, he struggles to say sorry but he gets it across
if you’re brutally honest like him, he will fucking love you, the two of you might disagree on things but you hardly ever lie to each other
if you say something like, “that was a bit rude, dal, not his fault that you didn’t like the milkshake.” so he’ll sigh and roll his eyes, apologizing to you and saying he’ll try not to do it again
he obviously does it again but tries not to do that type of stuff around you, he doesn’t want you to be upset at him or with yourself for not doing anything
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
keith loves someone who has the same sense of humor as him, if he tells a joke or insults someone and you come up with something funnier or more insulting, he’s head over heels
another thing he really loves is someone who’s good with kids, like they get along and can take care of kids
especially if the kids go out of their way to see you and they can tell you have a good heart, he loves that
same goes with animals, like they have a sense of intuition whether or not some is a safe person to be around, so if animals go to you then they feel safe
STEVE RANDLE
he likes someone who is respectful of others, specifically boundaries and is very careful not to cross them
also someone who sees the good and bad side of everything, if you try to see others perspectives then he’ll really appreciate it
that way he knows you’re caring of not only yourself and your friends, but people you don’t know either
he loves it if someone is protective of him but not to the point where he can’t do anything on his own, he can handle himself very well and you both know that, but if you’re protective then he knows you’d do a lot to keep him safe
authors note: pretty sure i have three full days left of school. i’m excited to write more yayyy!! sorry if you requested something and i haven’t answered it yet, i answer in order of who requested first. sorry this took a while!!
may i request the gang w a reader who has bpd? like, frequent mood swings, etc etc? tysm 💕
authors note: bpd stands for borderline personality disorder, in which the person has long patterns of unstable emotions. could last for weeks or even months, basically episodes. i’m not that educated on this subject, so sorry if this is offensive. enjoy 💗

PONYBOY CURTIS
you haven’t been in the right headspace for the past few weeks, so your grades started to slip
ponyboy would try and help you do your homework, even doing your homework for you but you wouldn’t have the energy to even try
but then, you had a test and you tried real hard to get a good grade, studying and stressing all over it for days
after you took the test and got your grade back, seeing it was an A, you suddenly felt better
at the end of the day, you and pony decided to go back to your house to study
he noticed you were talking more and laughing, so he asked you what happened
you smiled and told him you got a good grade on your test, for the first time in a while
you switched the topic and continued smiling, and pony looked at you with love
he was glad that you were feeling better, and he suspected you’d stay happy for weeks
he sometimes gets confused when you randomly switch but doesn’t say much about it
he’ll ask you about it later but not in the moment, especially if other people are there too
he knows you like it when he reads to you, so when you’re feeling upset, he’ll read to you so maybe you’ll feel better
he doesn’t want you to get frustrated if you’re not included in things, so he’ll always invite you to his track meets and will tell you about all the drama that happens if you don’t know about it
when you’re in a depressive state, he’ll help you plan things and start a routine
he just wants you to feel in control so you know what to do and have a sense of purpose
he also asks soda and darry for advice since they know you’re going through stuff, so occasionally they’ll help you out too
JOHNNY CADE
his parents were yelling at him so he went to your house, he knew his parents wouldn’t care
the only thing he was worried about was the fact that you were still in a depressive state, and he didn’t want you to feel more sad because of what he was going through
so when he knocked on your door and you answered, your eyes lit up and you smiled widely
he was shocked and didn’t know why you were so happy, but smiled back at you
you told him you were happy to see him unannounced, but asked why he came by
he told about what happened, so you invited him in and made cupcakes together
he knows what it’s like to be in a depressive state, so he’ll always try and help you feel in touch with the world
he tried to help you focus on things more and really take in information while paying attention
like focusing on how things move or sound, how strong smells are and how loud things are, how specific tastes are sweet, salty, hot, etc
when you’re happy, he tries to keep you like that by randomly checking up on you to see how you’re doing
he’ll also offer to do things for you like carrying or cleaning things for you
he just wants to make things easier for you, but of course that doesn’t always works
johnny loves you and makes sure you know it, always telling you you’re amazing and beautiful, that he appreciates everything you do, etc
SODAPOP CURTIS
you were at soda’s house, waiting for him to come back from work
you weren’t feeling that great but were trying your best to make him think you were at least feeling ok
when you hear the door opening and a creak, you look over to see soda with a dairy queen bag and two drinks
seeing his smile and the fact that he thought about you enough to bring you food made you switch
you got up from the chair and walked over to him, he put down the food
you put your hands and cradled his face while giving him a long kiss, then tracing your hand down his chest
after the two of you pulled away from the kiss, he looked down at you with a smile and said “glad you’re feeling better, sweetheart”
he’s naturally a very bubbly person and is a romantic at heart, you cannot change my mind
he literally worships the ground you walk on and will do that no matter how you’re feeling
if you’re feeling extra bad and hardly have the energy to get out of bed, he’ll take some days off work to spend more time with you
he just wants you to feel good but doesn’t always know how to handle it
he knows what it’s like to feel unheard, so he checks up on you a lot no matter how you’re feeling
when you’re happy, the two of you will go on cute little dates together
he’ll buy you a pretty necklace for your date and it’s an S for his name
when you’re angry, he’ll always try and calm you down without yelling
you try your best to not yell either since both of you know it doesn’t get you anywhere
DARRY CURTIS
you weren’t feeling that good for the past couple weeks ever since pony and johnny ran away
you stayed at darry’s house for a while, he was worried sick about the two boys
then you heard the phone ring, so you looked at darry, and he motioned you to go answer it
you got up off the counter and into the living room, where the phone was ringing loudly
picking up the phone, you said, “y/n l/n, what do you need?”
the person on the other end asked, “is darry curtis there? his brother and friend are in the hospital.”
your eyes went wide and you felt happy that the boys were back, but scared as to why they were in the hospital
you put the phone down without answering back, and ran to darry to tell him what had happened
he yelled for soda to come down since they had to go see pony and johnny in the hospital
he immediately went out the door and drove you two to the hospital, and you went to the floor where pony and johnny were
when you saw pony sitting on the chair, you smiled widely
darry was happy to see you feeling good again, but was still worried about why pony and johnny where there
he can get really impatient and frustrated with you at times but tries to stay calm because you can’t control how you act sometimes
most of the time, he knows when you’re struggling and tries to help you
so sometimes he’ll schedule an emergency therapy if you’re in a really bad mental state for whatever reason
he really cares about you but doesn’t always have the time or patience to try and reason with you
when you’re happy and feeling good, he’ll take you out to different places
sometimes it’s a restaurant and sometimes it’s just a little activity for you two to do together
he really likes cooking, so he’ll make food for you and will try new recipes
he’ll ask you to help him out with cooking since he knows you like to be a part of things
when you’re feeling sad, he tries to get you out of that mindset as soon as possible
he’ll still include you in hangouts in hope that you’ll feel better
DALLAS WINSTON
you were in one of your episodes, specifically one where you were mad all the time, which lasted for a few weeks
you knew you couldn’t do much about it, but dally would always try to get you out of the pissed off mindset
he always tried to make you feel better, even though most of the time, it wouldn’t do anything
he still wanted you to know he loves you, even if you wouldn’t appreciate it in the moment, you would appreciate it later when you were feeling better
today was your birthday, however, so dally took you out for dinner and actually paid
that got you out of your mad mindset, and he saw the moment you switched over to being happy
seeing that might’ve made him the happiest he’s ever been, knowing that he was the one to get you to switch over
you smiled and apologized for how you acted a few days ago, the two of you got into an argument
he brushed it off and said it was okay, and the two of you continued your dinner
when you were in your depressive episodes, he would help you shower, eat and go on walks since you hardly had the energy to get up
he would bathe you and buy you meals so you could eat
making you go outside at least every few days, the two of you would go on walks since he wanted you to get fresh air
when you were feeling mad, and you would feel that way for weeks, he would mostly stay away even though it was difficult for him
you were feeling happy and told him that if you were being all pissy at him, he should just not talk to you
you didn’t want to ruin your relationship or say something you didn’t mean, so you don’t him not to interact with you at those times
he still would, though, he would do little check ups on you to see if you were feeling okay, or if you wanted anything
if you were happy, he tried to keep you in that state for as long as he could
he thought you would stay happier if he gave you things, a lot of attention, and was overall with you more
it did work for a bit, until you randomly switched over, but he didn’t understand why
he would get impatient and frustrated with you at some points, but always managed to push through since he cared about you so much
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
feeling bad the past couple weeks, two-bit decided to invite you to hang out with the gang
he just wants you to get some fresh air and to socialize with others, since you hadn’t in a few weeks
all of you were getting milkshakes at a diner and were talking
you drank a bit of your milkshake when two-bit started talking
then he made a joke about someone at another table, and of course everyone laughed, including you
he looked to you and smiled, weirdly proud of himself for getting you to feel better
he’d always try to make jokes even if you weren’t feeling the best
when you aren’t feeling that well, he’ll bring you to the drive-in so you can spend time together and just to try to help you feel better
STEVE RANDLE
the two of you were randomly talking while he was on his break at work, you decided to visit him at the DX
both of you were sitting down in the back, eating burgers and drinking soda
he asked you how school was going for you, and your eyes lit up
you started moving your hands around a lot and kicking your feet, talking about a fun project you were working on with your friends
he listened and continued asking questions in order to lengthen the conversation since you seemed excited
you didn’t think much about how you were down and now you were happy, so you started talking about some drama between a boy and girl in your class
he was normally the one to talk, but enjoyed hearing you talk more than you normally did
when you’re not feeling the best, he’ll bring you into the DX so you can help him fix up cars
it’s just a new thing for you to learn and to hang out with each other
he’s weirdly smart in some ways, so he’ll occasionally help you with history, since he was always into that
when you were feeling really happy, he’d invite you to hang out with the gang
he knew you appreciated it and would invite you whenever he could
(if you can’t tell, i never have ideas for steve so sorry)

PONYBOY CURTIS
the two of you were walking home after school and were talking about piercings that you think would look good on each other
he said he thinks a vertical labret would look good on you, and you say the same for him
you say you can give him a piercing since you have everything at home, plus you were already walking in the direction of your house
he said darry might get mad at him, but he wants to have fun so he went
when the two of you arrived at your house, he followed you upstairs after he took his shoes off
walking into your room, you told him to close the door behind him and you’d get the supplies
you grabbed surgical gloves, a needle and a silver barbell
you walked back to pony, seeing him sitting on the chair of your vanity
you moved his hair away from his face and lightly kissed him, asking him if he really wants the piercing
he’s still looking up at you and nods
you pick up the blue pen and draw as gently as you can on his lip
he looks in the mirror and says “is that where the piercing would be?” so you say yes, and asks him if it’s a good place
he says yes and you wipe it off his lip, preparing to shove the needle through his lip
you count down for him “3..2..1..” and pushed the needle through his lip, his eyes closing
you told him, “you’re doing great, just a few more seconds…”
you grabbed the barbell and put it through his lip, the needle going through
when you stopped, he opened his eyes and smiled, looking at you then the mirror
he smiled widely, telling you it looks amazing and he’s happy about it
JOHNNY CADE
johnny randomly asked you if you could give him a piercing, a lip ring on the right of his lip
you said sure and let him into your house
he sat down on the couch and waited for you to get the supplies you needed
you grabbed a piercing ring, needle, gloves and a napkin for bleeding
you had a pen on a table nearby, so you grabbed it and drew a dot on his lip
he looked in the mirror across from him and said it was in a nice place
you wiped it off and smiled at him, gently pulling his lip down and grabbed a piercing ring that would go in his lip
you put the needle through his lip and got the piercing, putting it through the hole and pulling the needle out
he had his eyes closed, and licked his lips after the piercing was done
it had only taken a few minutes, so he looked at the mirror across from him once again and smiled
he thanked you and gave you a kiss
you took off your gloves and the two of you went upstairs to your room
he was tired and wanted to cuddle :)
SODAPOP CURTIS
the two of you were at sodas house, when he tells you about all the things that happened at work
he tells you about some guy who came into the DX, he had many piercings all over his face and everyone was staring at him
soda said the man looked like the tinfoil man from the wizard of oz but he’s always wanted earrings
you offer to pierce his ears since you have the right supplies and a few earrings you’ve never used, they look like ones he would look good with
soda says he’d love that but he asks darry first since he doesn’t want to get in trouble or yelled at
“yeah you can go to y/n’s house. don’t do anything irresponsible, soda. be back by 12.” darry said
soda said thank you to his brother, you smiled at him and grabbed his hand, walking out the door together
the two of you got into your car, heading towards your house
you pierced your own ears before, and if you can do your own then he can do someone else’s
when you arrived at your house, your parents greeted him and you told soda to up to your room
you grabbed some paper towels and a needle then headed upstairs to your room
you caught him looking at your vanity, where there’s a photo of you and soda at the beach, along with cute notes from him stuck on the big mirror
you grab a box filled with many earrings, only the ones you’ve never used
“pick which pair of earrings you want, soda, tell me which ones and we’ll put them in when your ears are pierced.” you tell him
he looks through the box for a few seconds, then choses silver ones, asking if he can have them
you of course say yes, and tell him to sit on the vanity chair
he sits and stares up at you while you put on your gloves, using a pen to make dots on his ears
you turn his head to look at the mirror so he sees the placement of the dots, and says they look good
you wipe off the mark and grab the clean needle, asking soda if he wants to go through with it
he says yes, and you push the needle through his ear and put the piercing in, pushing the needle out
you put the backing on the right earring
“you good, hon??” you ask, and he responds with “yeah it feels fine, hardly felt anything—“
while he was distracted, you shoved the needle through his left earlobe and heard a loud screech
“owwwwieeeeee!!!!” soda said, of course as a joke
you chuckle and pick up the other piercing, again putting it through the hole the needle made, pushing the needle out
you put the backing on and take your gloves off, brushing his hair out of his face
he looks in the mirror and has a horrified look on his face
your face turns pale and you’re like “oh shit, you don’t like it?? sorry!” and start freaking out
he starts laughing and says he loves the piercings, giving you multiple kisses on your face
DARRY CURTIS
the two of you were talking and he naturally complemented your piercings, you thanked him and showed him some you would’ve gotten but felt as if they wouldn’t look good on you
he pointed out one piercing, the helix on the ear
“i’ve always wanted a piercing like that but never had the time to get it, it just looks real nice..” darry mumbled
you told him you could pierce it yourself since you have the money to get the supplies, you just had to go get it
he told you it’s fine and you didn’t have to do it, he could get it done another time since he had to take care of his brothers
“dare, pony’s at school and soda’s at work. this is the perfect time to do anything you want!!” you said
he agreed with you and said you two could go to the store, you needed the supplies to give him a helix
the two of you walked to the front door, out to your car
you started driving to the store, you bought needles, a few piercings that darry chose himself, and sanitary gloves
after paying at the cash register, you walked out with darry, asking him if he’d like to go to your house or his
“my house, i need to be there when pony gets off from school and soda comes home from work..” he responded
when the two of you got back to his house, you told him to sit down at the dinner table
you put on your sanitary gloves and grabbed a blue pen, marking darry’s ear for where the helix piercing would be
you showed him your mirror and asked him if the location was fine, and when he confirmed, you wiped off the mark
you grabbed the needle and asked him if he was ready
before he answered, you pushed the needle through his ear so he would be caught off guard and wouldn’t be stressed
he closed his eyes, trying not to focus on the pain
you gently picked up the piercing he wanted and put it on top of the needle, pushing the needle out and the piercing in
you patted his cheek once you took off your gloves, and showed him the mirror once again
he smiled at you, said it looks nice and thanked you
DALLAS WINSTON
one day you guys were talking and the subject of piercings and tattoos came up
you said someday you want to get a little tattoo of the dates of when you had your pets
he said he might get a tattoo one day but he wanted a piercing, specifically an eyebrow piercing or a nose piercing
you told him you could give him a piercing since he probably wouldn’t pay for a professional one
the two of you go back to your house and go upstairs to your room
you tell him to take off his shoes and go sit on your bed while you grab a needle and two curved barbells from a box on your vanity
“hold on dal, i need to get gloves. need to be at least a little sanitary, right? don’t do anything while im gone.” you say
he responds with a short “take your time, doll, won’t do anything bad..”
you run downstairs and quickly get blue, sanitary gloves and run back upstairs to your room
you come back with a few paper towels in case he bled a lot
you grabbed a blue pen and marked a dot above dally’s right eyebrow, you grabbed a mirror and asked him if it’s a good location for the piercing to be at
he says it’s perfect and you wipe it off, remembering exactly where the piercing was
grabbing the needle, you stand in front of him while he’s sitting on your bed, and push it right through his skin
he winces and tells you, “fuck, baby, should’ve given me a damn warning next time…”
you apologize while grabbing the actual piercing itself, putting the barbell on top of the needle and shoving the needle through and out, putting the barbell in
he’s looking up at you the whole time then you say “you’re doing amazing, hon. we’re done with the hard part. just gotta put the ball on to secure the piercing..”
you grab the ball part of the piercing and screw it onto the curved barbell
you realized you didn’t actually need the paper towels since you put the piercing in the perfect place, and he didn’t bleed at all
you walked away and showed him the mirror, also showing him with his new piercing
he lightly touched the new piercing and flinched slightly, telling you it looks amazing and he loves it
he grabs you by the hips, causing you to put down the mirror, and sits you on his lap
he kisses you while giving many thanks, softly rubbing your back
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
he made a bet with steve that dally wouldn’t flirt with any girls a the drive in, and if he did then two-bit would have to get a piercing of his choice
he lost since dally tried to hit on cherry, and she obviously brushed him off, so he got pissed and ran off
steve told two-bit to ask you to give him a piercing since he probably didn’t wanna pay for it
so he walked from the drive in to your house and knocked on your door
when you answered, he automatically asked “can you give me a piercing… like earrings? i lost a bet.”
you stared at him for a few seconds before shrugging and saying “sure. i already have the supplies, go sit on the couch, my parents aren’t home.”
he came into your house and sat on the couch, looking around and seeing the walls were well decorated, with pictures of you and your family on stands and tables
you went upstairs to your room, got a needle, earrings and a mirror
after gathering supplies, you walked down the stairs and walked to the pantry to grab surgical gloves
you walked to the living room, two-bit was watching television
you drew dots on his ears and picked up the mirror, asked him if the dots were in a good place
he said they were, so you wiped it off and put the gloves on, then grabbed the needle
he was focused on the show he was watching, so you pushed the needle through his left earlobe
two-bit hardly had a reaction, so you grabbed the piercing and pushed it through the hole the needle made
you pushed the needle through the right earlobe, where the mark was, and grabbed another piercing
you pushed the piercing through his ear, pushing the needle out
you took your gloves off and sat on the couch next to two-bit
“holy shit, wait did you do it? i hardly felt anything..” he said, so you showed him the mirror so he could see the piercings
he touched his ear and started laughing, realizing he had no reaction but it still looked good
he thanked you, so the two of you started talking about the show he was watching
STEVE RANDLE
steve was walking down the street with you after you two were done eating lunch at a restaurant
a man passed by you, he had a madonna piercing, and steve told you that the piercing looked good
“yeah, that piercing looked cool. do you want one? cause if you do, i have what we need at home so i can do it for you—“ you said
“really?? like we could get the piercing done right now?” he said, you said yes and started walking back to your car
he followed you, the two of you got into the car and drove home
you walked into the house, told him to go upstairs since you had to get the items and talk to your parents
you told them steve is gonna stay at the house for a few hours, so you grabbed surgical gloves, a few napkins and headed upstairs
you walked to your parents room to get a needle from your moms sewing kit, and walked back to your room, where steve was
he was sitting on your bed and looking around your room
you put your supplies on a napkin on the bed next to him
you looked at your piercings collection, and saw a piercing that would work well on steve as a madonna piercing
walking over to him, you used a pen to place a dot to the left above his lip
you showed him a mirror and he saw his reflection, knowing it was in the perfect spot
wiping off the ink, you put on your gloves and grabbed the needle
with your other hand, you gently grabbed his lip and stuck the needle through it
you got the piercing and pushed it through, moving your head to see the piercing well
you nodded and grabbed a mirror, pointing it towards his direction so he could see
“woah it looks just like the one that guy had!!” steve exclaimed
he gave you a hug and the two of you talked about how work and schools going

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!”
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 💗
includes ponyboy, johnny, soda, darry, dally, two-bit and steve

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
