word count: 1.8k
warnings: cussing, avoiding, being uncomfortable with physical touch and emotional talk, struggles in relationships
PONYBOY CURTIS
you and ponyboy were in your history class, working on notes, studying for your upcoming test
the teacher had given the class the questions beforehand, so you wrote down the odds and your boyfriend wrote down the evens
you later wrote down the even number questions and answered them, along with answering all your odd questions besides one
you stared at your paper with confusion, not wanting your boyfriend to notice that you were struggling with a specific question
you frantically looked through the textbook, trying to find the answer to no avail
ponyboy glanced over to you, seeing your worried face, asking quietly, “you want some help, y/n?” not wanting you to be embarrassed
you shook your head, not looking back at him, still flipping through the pages of the history textbook
he wanted you to get the question without telling you or asking once again if you needed help, so he flipped to the page where he found the answer in his textbook, and put it into your view
ponyboy stayed quiet, you glanced at his desk to see the textbook on his desk, flipped to a certain page, the topic of your question in big red text
you flipped to the page in your book, writing down the answer in your notes page
your boyfriend smiled at you, asking if you’d like to go over your notes to see if you got the same answers
you nodded and read over your notes, all of your answers matching
ponyboy would help you in discreet ways, ways that you would hardly think about as helping
but he was fine that you didn’t consider his actions as helping, he didn’t want you to think he was helping, because then you would become distant
he would try to be on his own sometimes, to be independent, but would get used to asking help from people even though he was fine with doing things on his own
he would try to get you into the habit of asking for help, failing profusely, but you knew he cared
JOHNNY CADE
you and your boyfriend were at the drive in, watching an elvis movie together
but before the movie started, you asked johnny if he wanted to get some food and drinks from the concessions stand, so the two of you walked over to where the food was
“you want anything, johnny? i can pay.” you asked
he said, “oh, maybe we can share popcorn? um, i can pay, actually..” not wanting to be rude
you replied with a yes to sharing the popcorn, but refusing to let him pay for the food
he nodded, knowing you wouldn’t let him pay, but he wanted you to know that he would pay if you let him
johnny is someone who didn’t really get a lot of affection, so he kind of craves it
but the two of you make your relationship work, and he respects your boundaries, knowing how difficult it was when rules and boundaries were crossed
so he showed his love for you with affectionate words, even if you wouldn’t say it back
you would help him with things, along with his emotions but never opening up yourself
he knew you cared for him and loved him, but you had a very difficult time expressing it
SODAPOP CURTIS
you and soda were walking down the street after getting two milkshakes from a diner
the two of you were walking back to your house and he was talking about a weird person who walked into the DX
“so, there was this guy, right. and he walked into the shop, hardly fitting through the doors. and as a reminder, we have double doors, you know? anyway, he ordered a soda and a burger, then when he walked away, me and steve saw his asscrack!!! then guess what steve said! he yelled after the guy, ‘pull up your pants, man!!’” while giggling constantly
you laughed and he lightly hit your shoulder, but you moved away quickly, slouching and looking around the road nervously
he apologized, continuing to talk about other things that happened at the shop, knowing you’d want the conversation to keep going, distracting you
he’s naturally a very touchy person but tries hard not to be physical with you since he knew you would get uncomfortable
DARRY CURTIS
you and darry were at his house, planning to make chocolate cake together, trying to work on collaborating with each other
the two of you were talking while measuring ingredients, putting them into the bowl
“is pony still doing good in school?” you asked, being genuinely curious, looking at your boyfriend for a split second
he nodded, explaining that he was the top of his class and got number one in long jump for his track meet the other day
the two of you continued your conversation, darry passing by you, not before putting a hand on your hip
you cowered and moved away slightly, his hand coming off your hip, apologies coming out of his mouth
“oh, um, it’s ok dare…” you muttered, your boyfriend replying with, “if you don’t want me to do anything, i’ll respect it. just gotta tell me, okay?” and looked at you with worry in his eyes
you smiled at him and continued talking about ponyboy and the gang
he also had a difficult time asking for help, people often expecting a lot for him, more than he could give
so he naturally became independent, just like you
the two of you would try to practice relying on each other, just to get used to being a bit dependent on each other
the two of you knew you didn’t have to be dependent on each other in order to love each other, and you knew that
he would give you little kisses and affectionate actions, but if you pushed him away then he word respect your boundaries
DALLAS WINSTON
the two of you were sitting next to each other in the police station, your boyfriends knee touching yours
the two of you were quiet, but you moved your leg away, not comfortable with the touch
a man with big muscles, wearing a black shirt and jeans came into the station, asking for a y/n l/n and a dallas winston
you recognized him as darry, whispering to your boyfriend that darry was there to pick the two of you up
the officer talked to the both of you, telling you it’s wrong to steal, and recommending that you break up with him, that dally would only get you into more trouble
the two of you previously got arrested for stealing money from someone
you and dally were very alike, both of you hardly asked for help or showed affection in public besides laughing and talking with each other
so you and dally were a good couple and had the same boundaries and expectations
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
you and your boyfriend, keith, were at his house hanging out after school
both of you were in his room and you were helping him out with homework, even though you were younger than him but in a higher grade, him being held back many times
after your boyfriend was done struggling and you were done explaining the questions, you brought out your science homework and stared at it for a couple seconds
two-bit noticed and asked you, “need help, babe?” and you politely shook your head, muttering, “no thank you..”
he watched you struggle and knew you wouldn’t ask for help, he knew you picked up habits from your childhood that caused you to be highly independent
but he understood you more than anyone else did, more than you even understood yourself
keith would try to help you in little ways, things you hardly noticed, like giving you your pencil if you couldn’t find it, or scooping up a cup of flour for your cake
he would, however, often need help himself because he was lazy and didn’t always have a drive for things
STEVE RANDLE
you walked to the DX to see steve, wanting to be with him after a difficult day at school
when you walked into the shop, seeing your boyfriend at the register, you smiled
“hey y/n, didn’t expect to see you here. how’d that test go? i knew you were talking about it for the past few days..” he said
as you walked up to steve, you hesitantly said, “oh, um… i didn’t get that good of a score. eighty-four percent, i’m gonna retake it.” looking away, feeling shameful
steve looked at you, telling you that he could help you study if you wanted it
you turned down his offer, wanting to do everything on your own, he knew you were independent but thought you needed help sometimes, however you wouldn’t let him help you
“you sure? don’t want you to be stressed, no shame in asking for help.” he told you, and you stared at him for a few seconds, saying “thank you, but i’m fine. really. i’ll study for a few days, the retake isn’t until thursday.”
he nodded and looked down, mumbling an “alright” then asked “you wanna go out to eat if you get a good score?” looking at you then smiling
you smiled widely at him and blushed, nodding at his question
he’s a little more stubborn than the rest of the group, so you can get a bit frustrated if he keeps persisting to help you with something
but he just wants to show you that he cares about you, and with the small chance that you’d want help, he would help you
authors note: sorry i didn’t post yesterday! i have a little bit of homework but only have a few more days left of school. i’ll try to get some more requests done this weekend 💗
can you please do dating johnny cade hc?
authors note: this is my first time writing for a singular person :3 thank you for sending this request!! i’ll try my best so i hope you enjoy. sorry i didn’t get to this request sooner 💗
word count: 0.8k
warnings: mentions of fighting
he still gets all blushy, smiley and shy around you whenever you two talk or you admire him for a while
he just craves comfort and you give him exactly what he needs
loves it when the two of you will cuddle when it’s just you two, feeling safe in your warm embrace
you’ll kiss him and praise him, tell him he’s amazing and is perfect, that he’s handsome and sweet, etc
you gave him a reason to live and the gang can see the difference from before dating you to while he’s dating you
baking with him was probably one of the cutest things you’ve ever done, johnny loved it so much since he didn’t get to do those types of activities at home
you always let him stay over at your house since his home situation obviously isn’t the best
he really enjoys being open and emotional with you but gets embarrassed when crying about something
like, he sometimes thinks ‘none of my friends cry about things, why am i so emotional??’ and you comfort him
he also likes pda and holding your hand everywhere
still gets nervous around other socs, since you know how to fight and you won’t get in trouble for it, you somewhat protect him
he’ll invite you to hangouts with the gang sometimes
since he didn’t really have that much of a mother, if he’s stressed you’ll give him a bath and massage his scalp, he feels cared for when you do things like that for him
you introduce a new music artist to him, named lesley gore, him and the gang have never heard of her
misty is your guys song and NOTHING can change my mind
once the two of you went to a field to pick flowers
you gave him tulips and he gave you peony flowers, he put the tulips in a vase and kept it in his room so he’ll have part of you when you’re not together
if you have a specific perfume you use, he’ll save up money or you’ll get him a bottle and he’ll spray it in his room
then it’ll smell like you, it comforts him and makes him feel like you’re there even if you aren’t
he likes being the little spoon when he wants to be comforted, so he’ll curl up to you and put an arm around your chest and a leg over yours
then if you put an arm around his torso then he’ll feel protected and safe
when you guys go on a date he’ll get you your favorite flowers and some candy
occasionally, he’ll get pony to help him write a note or a poem for you
johnny asks him “wait is this good” “should i add more??” “no wait that’s kind of awkward” “did i spell this right?” constantly since he wants the note to be perfect
johnny loves you so much and expresses it many times
he gets nervous to compliment you but he does it anyway, your presence makes him nervous since you’re so important to him and pretty and perfect
you guys sometimes go to bakeries or restaurants where there’s milkshakes
you two will share a milkshake but drink out of different straws and people in the restaurant will think ‘when will i get a relationship like that’
sometimes he’ll talk to you about a movie he lately watched, or something he likes and gets excited about
he smiles and gets a bit fidgety but in a cute way around when he gets really excited to talk about something
and when you talk to him about something he always pays attention and remembers little details
he’ll randomly get you something from the store like a little snack you like or supplies for school, etc
once he got you a little keychain, which said johnny
you got a matching keychain for him that said your name, he put it on his backpack too
in his jacket, he always keeps a photo of the two of you so he gets reminded of you when you’re not with him :3
whenever he’s hurt, like after getting jumped, you’ll disinfect his wounds and make him his favorite food so he feels a bit better

warnings: mentions of taking clothes off in front of each other but not suggestive
you and your boyfriend, johnny, were at the lot, sitting down on the grass and watching the stars. your head was on his shoulder and he realized you started to drift off into sleep, your head lowering and going back up every couple seconds.
he rubbed your back and moved into your sight, suggesting, “hey, y/n… it’s kind of late, do you think we should go home..?” and you slowly nodded, moving almost as if you were a sloth, closing your eyes once again.
he lightly patted your shoulder and got up from the ground, he held his hand out for you to grab and lift yourself up. you gently grabbed his hand and used your energy to plop up, him using his to bring you up.
it was quick, too quick to the point where you saw dots in your vision, static. you stood in your spot for a couple of seconds and closed your eyes, rubbing them. johnny was concerned and asked, “you okay?”
you replied and nodded, “yeah, i’m okay… just got up too quickly…” you thought for a moment before stating, “let’s go to my house, my parents won’t mind that you’re there.” you had previously told them you were going to see johnny and would stay out late, planning watching the stars together.
he held your hand, guiding you to the exit of the lot because you were feeling drowsy. although you knew the way to your house, johnny knew the way too, and walked in that direction while you followed. it was quiet the whole way, he didn’t want to annoy you or disturb how tired you were.
by the time the two of you arrived at your house, only the lights outside and the lights in the living room were on. you grabbed the keys in your pocket and put it in the keyhole, twisting it and opening the door. you twisted it in the opposite direction and pulled it out, walking inside and johnny following behind you.
you closed the door behind you, both of you taking your shoes off and leaving it by the door. you dropped the keys on the table next to the couches, turning the lights off in the living room and waking back to your boyfriend, gently grabbing his hand.
both of you walked up the stairs to your bedroom, you opened the door softly in attempt to not wake your parents up. you put your hand on johnny’s back and gently pushed him into your room, closing the door behind you.
because the both of you were in clothes you had been in for a long time, you walked over to your dresser and pulled out your matching pajama set. you took your clothes off, johnny glad that you were comfortable enough to do that around him. you looked back and smiled at johnny, mumbling, “remember when you left your sleepy clothes here…?”
he smiled at you, nodding, “that night was nice..” recalling the memories, the two of you playing card games but having to stay quiet because you didn’t want to wake up your parents. you pointed at a spot on your dresser, muttering, “they’re here, i kept them for you in case you would sleep over..”
you continued pulling your shirt over your head while your boyfriend walked over to the dresser, right next to you. he gently put his hand on your waist, giving you a kiss on the forehead, thanking you. he unbuttoned his pants and pulled them down, fully taking them off and putting on his pajama pants.
he walked over to your bed, flopping down on top of it and smelling your perfume on the pillows. he held it and closed his eyes, smiling at the memory of the two of you cuddling for the first time.
you walked over to the other side of the bed, pulling the sheets up and climbing under them, johnny doing the same. he cuddled up next to you, you began to spoon him, both of you feeling as if it was the most intimate moment the two of you had ever had.
even though hardly any words were exchanged that night, you began to whisper softly while playing with his hair, “i love you so much, johnny.. you’re the best guy i’ve ever met.. i love the way you talk about things and how excited you get.. the way you stand up for me and yourself, even though i can tell you get nervous sometimes.. i admire the way you love your friends and how you spend time with them.. your handsome smile and how it lights up the whole room.. your eyes.. i love everything about you. you’re the most important person to me.. thank you for making me want to be here, johnny..”
he opened his eyes even though it was dark, but he looked up to you anyway. your breathing seemed to have evened out, he realized you were asleep. he gently kissed your cheek before mumbling, “goodnight, y/n…” and you didn’t know that he reciprocated what you had said. he loved every part of you, as did you for him.
authors note: i kinda liked this i hope u guys do too!!
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

warnings: cussing, mentions of being jumped and made fun of
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
Hi! Can you write headcanons on the gang with the youngest Curtis (Curtis!reader) being a hockey player? (Platonic ofc) I watched Inside Out 2 and now all I can think about is how cool hockey is. Also your work is literally astronomical I love reading it 😭
authors note: i’m so happy you like my writing! but i think im gonna start posting every other day, im getting a little stressed out about it. i hope that’s okay with you guys, please enjoy! also i reached 200 followers, thank you!

PONYBOY CURTIS
you had been talking about your next game for weeks, spending time at the ice hockey rink for hours on end for the past week or so
when the day finally came, darry and soda already had their schedules for work, both busy, so ponyboy volunteers to go to your game
at the game, pony is watching from the stands, hardly saying or making any noise besides the occasional cheer when your team makes a goal
as you have the puck, aiming towards the goal with your stick, getting ready to hit the puck when a player from the other team shoves you, causing you to fall to the ground and lose the puck
“motherfucker—“ you grumbled, standing back up and grabbing your stick as the couch waved his hands around, “time out!” blowing his whistle
“curtis, bench!” he commands gesturing to a spot meant for resting after getting hurt
you roll your eyes, skating over to the spot, pushing the door and sitting on the bench, you just began to feel the pain in your right side of your body
ponyboy walks over closer to you, yet still in the stands, asking, “looks like that guy hit you hard, you hurt?”
you look at him through the clear screen, replying, “my right side hurts… i’m guessin’ when i take off my gear, im gonna have fuckin’ bruises everywhere.”
“you’ll be okay,” he paused, trying to convince himself, “when are you gettin’ back in the game?”
as on que, your coach asks, “curtis! you good enough to get back in?” you stand back up and push the door open, nodding at his question and saying goodbye to your brother, skating onto the rink
pony does a sport too, he always feels disappointed when no one goes to watch him at his meets, he wants to feel supported
so he always goes to your games as he wants you to feel supported and loved
JOHNNY CADE
johnny knew you were excited for your hockey game that was coming up, so he decided to support you and go to your game
as he entered the building, he kept his head low because he had snuck in, not wanting anyone to notice
he glances to his left, spotting you, your teammates and the opposing team already on the rink
johnny smiles at you when you look to your right, seeing him sitting down at the stands, you wave at him before the referee calls for everyone to get in their positions
as you are all playing the game, he keeps quiet but his attention is fully on what is happening in front of him
skating to the opposing player with the puck, you take it and skate towards the goal when the opposing player puts their hands out, pushing you to the ground
“damn it…” you mumble, quickly standing up almost as fast as you were pushed to the ground
a goal was scored, so you stand in your place until you feel ready to travel over to your teammates
“y/n, are you hurt?” johnny asks, his voice cracking slightly as you skate over to the stands, both of you face to face but separated due to the dasher board
you shake your head although you are holding your shoulder in pain, apologizing as you had to go back to your team
he enjoys to go to your games because it helps him feel emotionally better, it forces him to interact with others and also puts him in a foreign environment
he just wants to support you too, he knows it was hard for you to not have your parents at the games and your brothers to not be available
he values your relationship and sees you as a little sister although you’re not blood related
SODAPOP CURTIS
your brother had taken a day off to watch your hockey game, as you had been talking about it for days
“you’re gonna do amazing, sis! when i’m older i’ll finally be able to say, ‘my sister’s a pro hockey player!” he exclaims, attempting to make you excited for your game
it works, you begin to jump around as you enter the building, soda following after you and patting your shoulder, waking to the stands
you change in the locker room, coming out in your gear
the game starts as you skate onto the rink, you and a player from the opposing team face off to get the puck
you gain the puck first, skating straight across to the goal when the same player from the opposing team hits your leg hard with the stick
soda furrows his eyebrows, a confused look on his face as he watches the scene unfold in front of him
the player pushes you to the wall as you yell, “you ain’t allowed to do that, jackass!” pain is felt all over your left side
the referee doesn’t notice, soda yells after you, “you okay, sis?” you reply by nodding and looking at him
your focus is brought back to the game when the same opposing player charges in your direction, the puck in his possession
you skate towards him then turn in his direction, both of you next to each other as you push him to the ground, hard
taking the puck and skating in the opposite direction, your brother cheers for you as you score a goal
after the game, your adrenaline wears off and you realize you’re in much more pain as you realize
the two of you drive home then you both sit on the couch, you lean into your brothers side as he rubs your left shoulder
you sigh, closing your eyes as he continues to ask you, “this hurt?” you shake your head before he reassures you that you’re okay
soda’s literally your hype man, he’s glad another person in the family is good at sports because he knows he isn’t
always tells you that you did amazing in your games and practices, doesn’t want you to feel insecure about it and truly believes you’re amazing at hockey
DARRY CURTIS
it was your first game without the whole family being able to go, so darry took the day off work to support you
he drove you to the rink, asking, “you excited for the game?” glancing at you for a brief second, his attention going back to the road
you shrug, replying, “i don’t know…” looking outside the window as you arrive at the building
the two of you get out of the car, walking towards the building as you move closer to your older brother, a bit nervous for your game
as you walk into the building, you see the rink and direct darry towards the stands, “i have to change. i’ll be wearing dark blue.”
once you are done changing in the locker room, you bring your skates over to the rink and tie them
after warming up with your team, the game begins, a player on your team has the puck and passes it to you
you skate to the goal, getting ready to hit the puck when you feel pressure on your stomach, as you look down, you see a player on the opposing team kicking you as they lose balance
rolling your eyes, you hit the puck into the goal as another player from the opposing team grabs your helmet, smashing your head against the wall
your head suddenly felt warm, like something was running down your face, you recognized it as blood
yelling is heard around you, feeling someone pulling you up and skating you to the edge of the rink, you feel arms around you and your vision is blurry
“y/n are you okay? you’re… bleeding, hey, does anyone have a first aid kit?” darry talks quietly before yelling to the referee
he walks you to the bench and sits you down, your ears ringing and you hardly have energy to keep your head up
you hear the referee coming over to you with a first aid kit, giving it to your older brother while he takes your helmet off and wipes up the blood on your forehead
the referee kneels down to your eyesight as you are looking down, telling you, “you’re real injured right now, i’ll give that sheldon boy a talking to. you go home and rest, it isn’t a problem. get better soon, okay, kid?” smiling at you and patting your shoulder before he leaves
once darry is done with wiping away the blood and making sure you feel okay, he asks, “you ready to go home, kid?”
it’s really rare for him to find time off from work, so if he goes to your games then you’re really happy
you remind him of himself when he would do football, his parents and brothers would watch his games and he would feel proud
so he tries to take time off to go to your games, loves to support you and make you feel happy when you see familiar faces in the stands
always tells you to do your best in the games, congratulating you after the games even if you didn’t do particularly well
DALLAS WINSTON
dally had offered to take you to your game, your brothers were all busy and he had nothing to do
as you skate onto the rink, dally yells after you, “kick their asses, kid!” sitting down and looking to his left, spotting a soda bottle along with a pack of cigarettes
the game starts and he grabs the cigarettes, placing them in his pocket and grabbing the soda, taking a drink of it
as he watches you pass the puck to others, the other team gains the puck, you chase after the player with the puck
he holds his stick in a position to hit the puck into the goal, as he swings, you happen to be right behind him, causing you to be hit in the face
dally yells, “hey, that little shit’s stick just fuckin’ whacked her in the face, man!” looking out for you, watching you put your hands over your face in pain
the referee calls, “penalty for high sticking! sheldon, you’re on the bench for two minutes! curtis,” he pauses, looking at you, “you feel good enough to play?”
you think before answering, “yeah!” taking your hands off your face, you turn your head towards dally
as you skate closer to the stands, he asks, “you okay, kid?” you nod at him, he continues, “hit ‘em back, hard.”
you smile and nod, beginning to skate back to your side of the rink, your friends swarming you and asking if you’re okay
dally knew his parents never gave a shit to be seen with him, so he wants you to feel cared for, he’s weirdly enough your chaperone even though he’s not responsible at all
if you ever want to practice but the rink is closed, he’ll probably find a way to break in so you can work on how you play
probably gets super pissed off when the opposing team scores for no reason even if they actually deserved it
TWO-BIT MATHEWS
two-bit and his younger sister decided to support you at your hockey game
you were already playing, keith and his sister found a spot to sit in the stands
you glance over to the stands, spotting two-bit and his sister watching you, you wave and smile at the both of them, directing your attention back to the puck
as your teammate passes the puck to you, you begin to skate towards the goal, preparing to hit the puck
right as soon as you hit the puck, a player from the opposing team shoved you into the wall, chasing after the puck and therefore preventing your team from scoring
pain shoots up your back, you would for sure have bruises all over once you got your armor off
two-bit’s sister gasps behind you, “y/n! are you okay?” concerned looks on her and her brothers faces
“yeah!” you yell back, glancing at the both of them for a brief moment, skating quickly in the direction of the puck
“y/n!” your teammate says, grabbing your attention and passing the puck to you
you skate across the rink, aiming the puck into the goal and succeeding, your teammates cheering for you
standing where you hit the puck, you try to rub your back to ease the pain, failing because of the thick layers of gear
your whole team is already grouped up when one of them turns their head, skating over to you and asking if you’re okay
staring at the ground, you whimper in pain, trying to rub your back again, two-bit noticing and asking, “y/n, you terribly hurt?”
you look at him, still standing with your teammate as the referee orders, “curtis, bench! doesn’t look like you’re feeling good enough to play!”
as you get escorted to the bench by your teammate, the player who hits you skates by the stands
“hey, way to go fuck face!” two-bit yells at him, making you turn your head and laugh gently
cares about you as he cares about his little sister, he goes to all of her school events as he goes to yours and your hockey games
sometimes he’ll just go because he loves seeing the smile on you and his sisters faces when you see each other, her running up to you after your game although you’re sweaty and tired
STEVE RANDLE
steve took the day off work to watch your hockey game, you had previously told him which position you would play as, the goalie
he glances to the left of the rink, seeing you with more gear on than the other players and a different stick
he watches the opposing team, switching his attention from you and them constantly
a player from the other team has the puck, skating to where you are, attempting to score a goal
the player hasn’t slow down fast enough, hitting the puck and also throwing himself onto you in the process
both of you were on the ground, you push him off and groan, your whole body hurting
“y/n, you good?!” steve yells, you shake your head as your body aches, he stands up as your teammates skate over to you, creating a circle around you
two of them grab your hands, directing you to the bench where you are to sit and rest, as you are injured
you call out, “steve?” you look around to find him, he moves near the bench yet still in the stands
“hey, you okay kid? looks like that guy hit you pretty hard.” he asks, concerned for you and your health, wanting you to check yourself for bruises or cuts
you breathe unevenly, “my ribs hurt.” straightening out your back and trying to relax, to try making your front feel better
“you’ll be alright,” he paused, glancing over to you once again to see you calming down, “how ‘bout i take you to get ice cream after this?”
you look over to him and smile, seeing concern and worry in his eyes, nodding as your referee calls, “curtis! you’re back in!”
as you are skating back onto the rink, steve comments, “take it easy, kid. don’t wanna have to call darry.”
he goes to your games because he knows you like to have someone there to support you, so you know he cares
steve normally doesn’t care so much about about things, rather nonchalant but cares about you as if you were his sister
he’ll be the most obnoxious person ever in the stands, yelling and screaming over everyone else

PONYBOY CURTIS
you two went to the same school, since the both of you had good grades and were on the same track team, you wanted to become friends
you thought he was cute so you struck up a conversation with him
you two kept talking for months and you eventually went to his house to study and met his brothers, darry and soda
darry told pony to be wary of you, but was glad to have you around since you would help ponyboy get his grades up if they faltered
you also gave him a reason to go to track meets and try since you would be competing too
soda thought you were nice and that’s all he cared about, you respected and seemed to love his brother even if pony couldn’t see it himself
he realized he started to love himself more when he hung out with you, and you made him look forward to things
he loves the way you laugh, the way you would get excited talking about specific things, your love for baking and the way you would get eating your favorite meal, how pretty you were, your kindness and selflessness, he could go on and on about what he loves about you
he later asked you if you wanted to be his girlfriend and picked your favorite flowers from a field close to his house
you obviously said yes
you were so excited and gave him a big hug, saying you were waiting for him to ask you and you’re so happy he finally did
he loves you so much but feels like he’ll scare you away if he says it quickly
he tells the gang about you being his girlfriend and they freak out, asking if they can meet you
you got nervous when he told you his friends wanted to meet you, and when you did you didn’t know when to talk or not
they could tell you got nervous and dally openly made fun of you for it
you guys had the same humor and since you were respectful and treated them like decent human beings, they liked you a lot more than they expected to
dally won’t tell anyone but he thinks you’re chill, he’s still a little cautious around you though since he’s not used to you
once you leave pony’s house when he’s walking you home, he tells you the gang like you and are fine with you two being together
you’re overjoyed since you thought they didn’t like you
he’s really happy the gang likes you and you like them too, so everything’s going well in his life
JOHNNY CADE
you met johnny at the drive-in, you were with marcia and cherry while he was with pony and dally
johnny thought you were SOOO beautiful so he told pony and dally, they both thought you’d be a bitch since you were with socs and you were one too
after dally was done harassing cherry and ran off, she started a conversation with pony and johnny
you looked back at johnny and already saw him looking at you, so you smiled
you were more on the quiet side since most of the time you just didn’t have anything to say, and you were an observer
you noticed the cut on his cheek, it was deep and he had a look that made him look scared of everything, so you guessed he had problems at home
he’d flinch at loud noises and sudden movements, so you took a note of that
you were still curious about the cut on his cheek, and asked him where he got it, he looked to pony and he pat johnny on the shoulder to go sit next to you
he went up to the front row to tell you the story about how he got jumped by a group of socs, and remembered a guy with multiple rings
you said you were sorry for him, and not every soc is like that, that he can’t control what other people do but only the way he reacts
he continued the conversation and found out more about your likes and dislikes, while pony was talking to cherry, and two-bit came to talk to marcia
johnny started to feel like someone cared about him other than the gang, and he felt full until the time you had to leave
you wrote down your number on a piece of paper since you wanted to keep in touch, and drove away in your mustang
he and pony talked about you and the movie on their way home, and talked about how you don’t seem that bad and johnny should try to pursue a relationship with you
the both of you would hang out weekly through the next year, sometimes sleeping over at your house since his parents would be drunk
one time you two were having a heartfelt talk about feelings and home life, and he asked you if you could be his girlfriend
since you were shocked but reciprocated the feelings, at first you didn’t say anything and johnny got real nervous
he said sorry for asking and it got awkward, but you said you’d be his girlfriend
bro has never smiled that wide in his entire life, he’s never been so happy when someone said something until now
you two talked about the failed times you were to ask each other to be partners, and kept giggling about it until your dad walked in and told you to go to bed, and to keep the door open
you ended up going to bed, curled into each other
he told the gang since they were the only people he trusted
you didn’t meet them for a while so johnny and pony told the rest of the gang you were chill and they took his word for it
you later met them and they liked you, even started inviting you to hang outs
DARRY CURTIS
yall met when he was fixing your roof, and you thought he was so handsome
when he would get tired you would let him take a break for as long as he wanted, and even let him into your house for snacks and drinks
he appreciated it and didn’t know how to voice it more than he did
after he was done with fixing your roof, he was incredibly sad
he really liked the attention and you did too, so you gave him your number on a piece of paper and told him to call you if he wanted to talk or hang out
when he got home he started thinking about what would be good for pony and soda
he thought he had to take care of them and he was responsible so he didn’t know if he should get to know you better, he had a lot on his hands
he figured he should try to do something that makes him happy while still doing important things and taking care of his brothers
he would call you often and you would call him, planning times to meet and do things
when you two got very close after months of talking, he brought you to his house
when he brought you to his house he didn’t expect to see the whole gang there, being loud and acting wild
you didn’t mind at all and said it was okay, he later had a long talk with them about how they can’t be at his house uninvited randomly
yeah they didn’t listen at all because it happened many times after that
you started to make food for them and do laundry, acted like a mother towards them
that’s when darry knew he loved you and wanted you to be his girlfriend
he knew the gang appreciated everything you did for them and acted as a mother figure to them, they listened to you
you even got dally to listen to you and help out around the house… it wasn’t even his house but it made it easier for darry to manage
darry later saved up some money and brought you to a restaurant where he asked you to be his girlfriend
you said yes and you were both super happy :3
SODAPOP CURTIS
you two met at the DX where he works
you came in so you could fix your car and so you could get a coke
when you saw him you were like “shiiittt he’s really handsome” and he was like “oh crap she’s really pretty look cool”
HE IMPRESSED U SO MUCH JUST WITH HIS LOOKS AND KNOWLEDGE ABOUT CARS
you two chatted for a while and he fixed your car while he continued talking to you
he knew the problem with your car was an easy fix but he stalled and tried to make it look like a bigger problem than it was, so he could talk to you more
he even considered going back to school so he could see you more
you started going to the DX more frequently just to get some snacks, but mostly to see soda
after school you would visit the DX, and one day he asked for your number
his heart was racing since he knew girls would most of the time get annoyed if their guy best friends had a crush on them
you weren’t annoyed at all, rather happy and wrote your number on a piece of paper he gave you
he’d give you free drinks and snacks since he liked you so much
you visited his house and sometimes the gang was there, so you talked with them
two-bit always made jokes about you and soda being touchy together and how you argued like a married couple
you later realized you liked him, and whenever someone would say something funny you two would look at each other immediately
soda asked you if you two could start dating, you were the only person that actually made him feel more than just handsome
you made him feel like an actual person with human feelings
you said yes to dating him and hugged him so tightly while squealing “yay!!!” and jumping around
steve was like “damn, what’s going on up there…?” since soda asked you to be his girlfriend when you two went up to his room
anyway the gang likes you and knows soda thinks you’re amazing and loves everything about you
DALLAS WINSTON
he first saw you in buck’s bar when he went downstairs during a party
he thought you were beautiful and you had a swarm of guys around you, waiting to talk to you
he knew he was a good looking guy so he just pushed them out of the way and started flirting with you
turns out you love his accent and used to live in new york for a bit
you two bonded over that heavily, and talked about all the wild experiences you two saw or things that personally happened with you guys
time flew by, hours passed and soon you two were the only ones in the bar that weren’t passed out or gone
you gave him your phone number since you didn’t know if he would ask, he took it and told you he’d call you in the morning
he asked if you lived nearby and you said you lived around 20 minutes away, so he took buck’s car and drove you to your house
before stepping foot into your house you gave him a hug and said thank you
he had a warm feeling and his chest and smiled, walked away and got into the car
for once he wanted something to be a long term relationship instead of a one week relationship with multiple arguments per day
he really struggled over it because he didn’t want someone to see over the walls he built for a while
he got a call from you a few minutes after he woke up, and you loved his morning voice
you asked him if he wanted to hang out, and this happened around two times a week for months at a time
he would always say yes and put away events just to be with you
sometimes he would invite you to events if he wanted to hang out with you
he later asked you months after you two met if you wanted to be his girlfriend
he just asked you out of the blue while you two were eating dairy queen, “wanna be my girl” and you stared at him for a bit
he was like “…what” and tried to act nonchalant but in his mind he was thinking about everything he did wrong
you smiled widely and said yes to dating him and he felt a wave of relief wash over him
his heartbeat finally slowed down after a few minutes
he offered to bring you to the curtis’ house so you could meet the gang
when he brought you there, he asked you if you could stay outside for a few minutes because he had to talk to them
he told the gang he’d bash their heads in if they weren’t nice to you
he went back outside to grab your hand and bring you into the house, where you saw multiple people
they all tried to start a conversation with you and dally glared at them since you immediately got overwhelmed, so they backed off
they slowly started making conversations with you and small talk, you got along with them great
they weren’t only nice to you because dally told them to, but because you treated them good too
he was really happy you and his friends got along but didn’t really show it
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
i kinda know jack shit about him so this one’s probably gonna be short sorry
you two met at the drive in when he was messing around with everyone and random people
you two were at the concessions part to get food and you pulled out your wallet, showing a mickey mouse plush and you as a child in a photo
he was like “holy shit, this girl likes mickey too??” so he asked you about it
you were a little weirded out that he payed that much attention to the point where he noticed the plush in the photo, but you still talked to him
you two continued the conversation and you offered to pay for his food, he cracked some jokes which you laughed at a lot
you two watched the drive-in movie together while making jokes along the way and talking about things in the movie
you weren’t there with anyone and he was just there to mess around with people so he enjoyed being with you
you got each others numbers and started hanging out with the gang
they thought you were funny like two-bit and made the best duo ever
yall were UNSTOPPABLE
he later asked if you two could be together after a year of talking
you said yes and, like in johnny’s section, started talking about the times you almost asked each other to be together and laughed about it for hours
that shit brought you to tears— funny happy tears though
STEVE RANDLE
i know i said i know jack shit about two-bit too but i think i actually know like nothing about steve
soda introduced him to you since you were looking for a boyfriend but all the guys who were interested in you treated you like shit
he left you and steve alone for a bit so you two talked about cars and your jobs, you decided you would visit him at the DX since he worked there
you two talked about societal problems and even opened up to each other emotionally, which was quick considering you two only knew each other for a few hours
since you two got along so well you talked to soda and asked him if he thought if was okay you two are talking
“well yeah no shit i’m fine with you two talking, i set you two up!!” he said
i mean he’s not wrong
you and steve ended up hanging out once every two weeks, then it turned to once every week, to twice and sometimes three times
he’d sometimes stay over at your house
since you two had so many common interests and problems you two got together
it was actually really mutual since you were gonna ask each other at the same time if you could date
you laughed about it later but obviously said yes
you met the gang and they liked you, turns out all of you have many common interests with each other
steve loves being with you so much and talks to soda when he needs advice
you talk to soda about steve too and he’s so happy he gets all the tea about your relationship
sorry steve’s and two-bit’s were really short!! pls give feedback if there’s something i can do better with my writing :)
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

warnings: cussing, abandonment, death, angst
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

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

authors note: fully platonic between reader and the gang!! sorry this took a while, i hope you enjoy 💗

PONYBOY CURTIS
you and pony just had a one year age gap, so the two of you were expectedly the closest in the family and in the gang in general
you had gone into the next grade early, both of you were freshman and it was getting harder and harder to hide a secret from your brother
pony sat in the back of his math class, zoning out but knowing the material of the worksheet well when he heard giggling in front of him
directly in front of him was someone you would hang out with often, yet he didn’t quite know their name yet, but they would come over to the house often and you would spend the time in your room with them
the person next to your suspected friend was of course, you, pony’s sister
the two of you were leaning into each other, whispering then passing notes to one another after getting in trouble for talking
by the time the period was done, you and your so-thought friend gave each other a hug and a kiss on the cheek, parting ways while you waited for your brother to pack up his backpack
he stood in awe at you and your friend— partner, he now guessed, his mouth open in shock while the teacher told you two, “curtis, out!”
the two of you walked, exiting the classroom while your brother continued asking you various questions
you then answered one, “we’re dating. i’m sorry i didn’t tell you sooner, i haven’t had the right time.”
you and your brother slowly walked to the next class before he asked, “they good to you?” you replied with a nod and a smile
if you’re on good terms with your partner, he’s on good terms with your partner
if you’re upset with your partner, he’s upset with your partner
he doesn’t show that he’s protective of you but guessed that your partner already knows that
if your partner fucks up your mindset or makes your standards lower somehow, for example makes you think you don’t even deserve the bare minimum, he and the gang will make sure they never walk into the school again
JOHNNY CADE
you and your brother, johnny, are extremely close because you’re all the other has besides the gang
so the two of you tell each other everything, you’re only a few years apart and trust each other more than you trust yourselves
the curtis brothers had told you that you and johnny could stay over anytime, so you decided to sleep at their house for the night, your parents were screaming and hitting each other
as you and your brother were laying on the couch and talking, you paused and looked at the ground
“you okay, sis?” he asked, concerned for you, you replied with another question, “promise you won’t be mad?” looking at him, somewhat nervous to tell him
“um… i just started dating someone…” you looked up at him, smiling slightly before looking back down at the floor, messing around with the blanket over your legs
johnny smiled at you, “really? are they nice, do they treat you well?” he was interested and wanted to hear about how your relationship was going
“they’re real nice! gave me flowers when they asked me to be their girlfriend!” you beamed, smiling widely and putting your hands in your lap
your brother smiled at you, he’s certainly happy that you’re enjoying another person’s presence but continues to worry about you
he doesn’t really have an opinion on your partner, he won’t go to them unless they come to him first because he doesn’t feel the need to form a friendship with them
he’ll only do it if you want him to, he loves you too dearly to say no to you, you’re the only family, by blood, that he truly cares about
johnny’s protective of you and wants you to be the happiest you can be, so if your partner can provide that for you then he’ll leave you two be
but if your partner cheats on you or does something to make you terribly upset, he won’t fight them himself but will instead get someone like dally to fuck them up
SODAPOP CURTIS
soda was in his room, next to yours when he heard kissing and giggling nextdoor
his interest peaked and he got up from his bed, walking slowly as to not let you notice the footsteps
he peeked into your room, seeing you and another person kissing, he swung open the door with an, “ooooooh!!!!!!” smiling and giggling, trying to control himself from jumping up and down
you and your partner stopped kissing, complaining, “soda!!! out!!!” he continued smiling and staying out of your room, “actually, im not in your room!! is this your partner?”
you stated, “yeah, soda..” and he replied, “love you, sis!! don’t do anything bad, leave the door open, have fun but not too much fun!!”
he left a gap in the door while you stated, “love you too, soda!”
he teases you so much about your relationship, always asking, “soooo what’d you and your partner do?” “did you guys kiss?” “y/n, leave the door open, you know that!!!”
soda’s honestly your biggest supporter and will always support you, he’ll always back you up during arguments
most of the time, he’s a super bubbly and energetic guy so he’s naturally nice to your partner, but he lets them know not to mess up the relationship
however, if your partner shows the slightest bit of disinterest or disrespect towards you, he’s telling them to get their shit together and act like a good partner towards you
DARRY CURTIS
darry was at work, fixing roofs when he heard a familiar voice passing by, he then heard an unfamiliar voice talking with you
he slightly turned his head to see you with another person, slushies in your hands and arms interlinked
the two of you didn’t notice your older brother and continued to walk to wherever your destination was, he decided to confront you when you would come home
by the time he was done with work, he came home, covered in sweat and dirty clothes
he walked past your room, seeing you sitting on your bed, reading a book, you glanced up at him and stated, “welcome home, darry. how was work?” you smiled at him, if he didn’t see you talking to someone, he never would’ve guessed you were in a relationship
darry slowly opened the door, closing it slightly behind him and stating, “work would’ve been perfect if i knew who you were hanging out with.”
you looked up at him, “oh, we’re dating, if that’s okay. sorry that i didn’t tell you, i hope you’re not mad...” you nervously glanced around, trying to find a distraction
he didn’t want to say something to upset you, “they do anything that bothers you, you come straight to me, understand?” he stated, putting his hands firmly on his hips
“sure, bro. thank you.” you thanked, your oldest brother walking out of your room quietly
darry’s very intimidating so your partner acts extra careful to treat you well, knowing the slightest thing that upsets you could get their life ruined
he’s probably the most protective out of all the greasers, you’re the only girl and the youngest in the family so he’s way overprotective of you and every situation you get into
at the slightest bit of danger, he is by your side and will always help you whenever you need it
he’ll still act uptight and cold around your partner even if you and them are on good terms
he will likely never trust them and will always side with you because you’re his sister
probably threatens your partner to treat you well ‘or else’
DALLAS WINSTON
you had been living at your aunt’s house for the past few years because your parents neglected you
your older brother, dally, would drop by occasionally to check up on you, he had his own place where he was staying
so one day, he decided to walk to your house, dropping by unannounced and taking the key to the door, unlocking it and walking inside
he wanted to scare you, but heard giggling and kissing sounds from your room so he paused in his place and put his hands in his pockets
as he walked to your room, the sounds grew louder and louder and he swung your bedroom door open, seeing you kissing another person around your age
“hey!!!” he yelled, staring directly into your so-thought partner, making them get up quickly and run out of the bedroom
he chased them out of the house, hearing you complaining as your brother yelled, “get out, man!! could’ve pulled my fuckin’ heater on you!!”
as he saw them running across the street, he slammed the front door shut and locked it, stomping back to your room
he put his hands on his hips and asked, “who the hell was that, sis?” standing in the doorway, making sure you couldn’t get out
you laid on your stomach, kicking your feet and reading a book, acting unbothered
“hey,” dally tried to make himself noticed, walking over to you and pulling the book out of your hands, putting a bookmark in the page you were reading
“the fuck, dally?” you asked angrily, flipping onto your back and kicking him in the stomach hard
he groaned, you began to kick at him constantly to the point where he grabbed both of your feet and swinging them to the side of the bed
“go away!!” you turned away from him, your brother asked you, “who was that person?” and you didn’t answer
he began to poke you, making you irritated, you groaned, “that’s my partner, man!! we’ve been together for five months, now go awaaaayyyy!!!”
he stared at you, “what.”
he doesn’t care how long you and your partner have been dating, dally will not warm up to them no matter what
he’s extremely overprotective of you and might even be rude to your partner sometimes, although you and your partner are young, if they argue or yell at you or do something that makes you upset, he’ll come back with bloodied fists
if you try to make the two of them bond, he’ll act as scary as he can so they know not to do anything wrong to you
dally cares about you more than he does for any other person, if anyone were to hurt you then their life would get fucked up quickly
if your partner treats you well and it is evident that they love you, your brother might act a little nicer than he normally does towards them
TWO-BIT MATHEWS
two-bit’s youngest sister, ellie, had come running to him, screaming, “keith, keith!!! there’s someone in y/n’s room!!”
he immediately turned his head to his youngest sister and got up from the couch, all his attention being on the situation now
he walked quickly instead of running and opened your bedroom door to see you sitting on the bed, another kid trying to jump out of the window but clearly failing
he walked over to the window and pulled the person down by their shirt, pushing them to sit on the bed next to you
your brother looked at you and crossed his arms, trying to appear intimidating, asking, “you gonna tell me who this kid is?”
ellie was standing in the doorway when you told her to leave, silence filling the room and your brother still staring at you
you sighed, “they’re my partner.”
keith tilted his head up and rubbed his eyes, “jesus, did you tell mom yet? how long have you two been dating, how old even are they!?”
fidgeting with your hands, you answered, “i didn’t tell mom yet, she’s always at work. we’ve been dating for around four months… they’re 14…”
‘a year older than you,’ he thought, as he saw the nervous look on your face, he softened his voice and asked, “when are they leaving?”
you and your partner looked at each other then to the clock in your room, their eyes went wide and said, “oh shit! i’m late, uh— um, i gotta be home! bye y/n, bye keith!!”
your brother made a weird face at your partner, not liking how they said his actual name, hearing footsteps running out the door and seeing them through your window
your brother sat down next to you and asked, “why didn’t you tell me, sis?” a glimpse of vulnerability in his eyes, looking at you worriedly
“i thought you’d be mad… i don’t know… sorry…” you mumbled, staring at the ground in shame, tears forming in your eyes
“i’d never be mad at you, y/n, there is no problem with finding someone you love. bonus if they love you back. you don’t have to keep secrets from me, it’s okay…” he reassured you
you didn’t say anything back, wiping your tears on your face and sniffling, stating, “thank you.” he replied with, “yeah, no problem sis.”
the moment of silence was interrupted with keith joking, “although, what was that haircut!!?”
you hit his shoulder and stated, “shut up!! they just got a haircut and i’m not gonna tell them it looks bad!!”
two-bit isn’t gonna be enraged if you end up dating, but he does want you to tell him if you do
although he normally acts the same with everyone, he’ll act differently towards your partner, appearing intimidating and protective of you
but he warms up to your lover as soon as he sees the two of you are in love, he tells them jokes and enjoys seeing you two laughing and immediately looking at each other
keith teases the two of you all the time too, laughing like a maniac once the both of you are blushing at the joke
STEVE RANDLE
steve was standing at the cash register in the DX, talking to soda while waiting for any customer to walk in
your brother, steve, glanced at the clock to see it was 3:24pm, his eyes went wide and hurriedly rushed to the back, searching for keys to soda’s car
“shit, soda, i forgot to pick up my sister from school!!” he stated, hearing a bell ringing because someone had come in
he heard two voices, one familiar and one not, he turned around and forgot about the keys, seeing you walking towards him and another person around your age following you
“y/n, i understand you’re upset—“ the other person said, you angrily replied, “leave me be, please.” you stared at soda then to your brother, a pleading look on your face that implied you wanted the classmate behind you to leave
you walked behind the register, going into the back while your classmate tried to follow you
your brother blocked them from walking into the back, asking, “who the hell are you, huh? what’d you do to my sister?”
he inched closer and closer to them, standing taller and more intimidating as they stuttered, “i’m— i’m her partner— i’m just trying to talk to her about, uh, something—“
steve stared at him, yelling back, “sis, is this your partner?” fully ignoring the other question he had previously asked your partner
“uh, yeah, that’s my partner. sorry you had to find out this way, steve!!!” you yelled back, he heard sniffles from the back room, soda not in sight, ‘probably comforting you,’ your brother thought
steve sighed, asking your partner once again, “why was she runnin’ away from you? what’d you do?”
your partner looked around nervously, stating, “well, maybe you’ll get it because you’re a guy. so, we were doing this weird circle thing in class, right? and i held hands with another girl—“
your brother interrupted him quickly, asking, “did you choose to hold hands with her and not my sister, your girlfriend?” his eyebrows raising
“well, yeah, it ain’t that big of a deal—“ they replied, steve immediately commanding in a threatening voice, “apologize to her now, then get your ass out of here.”
he pushed your partner closer to the back but not yet in the next room, seeing you sitting down and soda talking with you
“um—uh, sorry y/n. will i see you—“ steve interrupted your classmate, “no.” and grabbed them by the back of the shirt, dragging them to the entrance of the DX, opening the door and pushing them out
they scrambled up off the ground and ran into the direction of their house while he watched them, making sure your partner was gone
steve can get real pissed at your partner, depending whether or not they do something to make you upset
when they make you real upset, he confronts the shit out of your partner and makes them apologize until they realize the consequences of their actions, they could at most get beat up by him if you allow it
he might eventually form a bond with your partner if you’re okay with it, he gives them advice on what to do if they want to take you out on a date
at first he’s confused if the two of them meet on good circumstances, if not then he’ll be as pissed as you are
steve is normally pretty chill with your partner, doesn’t necessarily have an opinion on them for a while unless they’re a dick to you
could you do a gang(separate) with reader who’s like a transfer student or smth and dosent speak English fluently? They could like help her or smth idkkkkk but yeah🎀💕
authors note: my throat fucking hurts. sorry this is short, i hope you enjoy 💗
includes ponyboy, johnny, soda, darry, dally, two-bit and steve
word count: 1.4k
warnings: cussing, dally’s a bit of a dick
PONYBOY CURTIS
ponyboy’s top of his classes so he knows a lot, especially in english
because the two of you go to the same school, you guys have a lot more time together
he’ll always help you feel ready for a presentation and makes sure all your words are spelled correctly and you pronounce them right
same with when you’re called on to read, if you can’t pronounce a word then he’ll whisper in your ear and tell you, the both of you normally sit together
sometimes you’ll go over to his house or he’ll go over to yours, he assists you by studying with you
once he went over to your house, you had a vanity in your room but didn’t know what it was called, he asked you, “well what’s something that reminds you of it? of the vanity?”
you replied, “um… sticky notes because i have them on my mirror?” so he told you to connect the words ‘sticky notes’ so you could remember the word ‘vanity’
he’ll also read to you so you can learn more words and pronunciations, you also become entertained while you’re learning so it’s nice for the both of you
JOHNNY CADE
sometimes johnny goes to school with you so the both of you can learn together
he has a lot of patience so learning with him is easy, he’d make up around five words for you to pronounce and know the definition of every day
the two of you would review those words too, and because you were learning a whole new language, he decided to learn a new language too, yours
he knew what it was like to get frustrated over not being able to understand something, so the both of you taught one another your languages
you or johnny would point at a random object and the other would say it in both languages, it was a fun way to learn since it wasn’t one sided
when the two of you could have full on conversations in one another’s languages, the both of you were ecstatic
johnny even taught pony and the gang some words from your native language because he thought it was cool
SODAPOP CURTIS
man, you guys are learning english together because soda doesn’t really have a super wide vocabulary, he wasn’t that good in school
but he’ll teach you the basic words and their meanings, clothings, paintings, items, etc
he thinks it’s so attractive when you speak your native language or talk to him that way, he’ll get all blushy and smiley
his patience is actually pretty high and he’ll make you feel better if you feel bad about not knowing english that well
it doesn’t cause much of a problem in your guys relationship, it probably brings you two closer if anything
he loves it when you come to him to ask about words or what something’s called if it has certain characteristics
since you’re in school and he’s not, if you have to write an essay or presentation, he’ll give you synonyms so you won’t repeat the same words over and over
lord knows he got shitty grades because he used the same two words throughout his essay when describing something
DARRY CURTIS
he stays really patient with you because you can always learn more english, it’s not a one time thing when if you mess a word up then its messed up forever
so he helps you, since he was really smart and was good in school, he knew a very large range of vocabulary
you could ask him about a word and he’d immediately know the definition, sometimes asking you “verb or noun?” because he just knew so much
since he’s an old ass man he’ll show you magazines and newspapers, sometimes pointing to a random word, in which you tell him what it means, basically like a memory game
he teaches you a lot about grammar since most people don’t know how to use it correctly, he also teaches you how to use the correct ‘write, right’ ‘knight, night,’ ‘where, wear’ ‘here, hear’ ‘there, their, they’re’ basically homophones
darry really just wants you to have the best in life so he’ll teach you the most
DALLAS WINSTON
if we’re being realistic here, dally would bully the shit out of you
he is honest as hell and will not feel shameful or bad that he’s being rude to you for not understanding english as well as him
but he helps you learn new words and phrases, sometimes teasing you about it and giving you the wrong answers
he later tells you the truth though if you embarrass yourself by using it wrong
“dal… um, i heard some people talking about ‘left handed?’ what does that mean?” you would ask, him replying with, “means you only use your left hand, like your other is paralyzed or broken.”
sometimes he’ll randomly ask you, “what’s that?” and point at something, basically quizzing you so you can remember what is what
dally also helps you pronounce words, when you came home from school one day, you asked him how to say “pacific ocean” because all the c’s were pronounced differently, you were rightfully confused
however, if anyone else makes fun of you, he’ll get all pissed off at them and beat the shit out of them
if you start feeling guilty for not knowing words after he makes fun of you a bit, he’ll try not to as much and will focus more on teaching you words
he won’t love you any less if you struggle with english, he loves hearing you talk in your native language
you even teach him some words and phrases in your language, he complains, “that’s too hard to learn, doll, how many languages do you know?”
little do you know he’s actually impressed and would speak your language every day if he understood as well as you did
TWO-BIT MATTHEWS
two-bit is actually very sweet about you not knowing english as well as him
sometimes, he’ll help you by watching television with you, whether it’s a movie or a series
he’s occasionally a little mean about it, laughing when you say something wrong, he corrects you after though
he’s lazy as hell though so you don’t learn much from him, but if you teach him about your language then he’ll pay attention
if you’re doing a presentation of some sort soon for school, he’ll make flash cards before and help you remember how to pronounce words and what they mean
also when in public, if both of you are in a restaurant or getting fast food, he’ll help you order what you want while you know of what the ingredients are
because he is helping you learn english, it doesn’t cause much of a problem in your relationship
also, you know that trend where it’s like ‘telling the transfer student that scooby doo is a bad word and to yell it’ that’s you guys
STEVE RANDLE
steve’s actually pretty smart so he gave you detailed descriptions of what some words meant
so when you asked what a dresser was when you were just learning, instead of pointing at it and leaving it be, he told you, “basically furniture with a lot of drawers that holds mostly clothes, it can hold other things too though.”
he also tells you more than you need to know, he talks to you about cars and all its parts even though you don’t know what they are
so he explains to you what they are and how they work, what they do and where they are in the car
steve really enjoys learning about how things work, so he’ll tell you about that too when you ask about a word or its pronunciation
also teaches you about metaphors and all that stuff, if you’re not good with sarcasm then he’ll help you know when someone is or is not being sarcastic
he also tells you that there’s a ‘shit ton of stupid rules in the english language’ and things are ‘weirdly fucking hard to pronounce’ so it’s fine to not get words right the first time
authors note: happy father’s day 🎀
