Johnny has always been different, the gang knew that. He was always doing something to be proud of but he'll forever be a greaser unless his folks actually started to care for him, and even then, he'll always be an outcast, a delinquent. Johnny doesn't mind that though, he likes it the way it is, but he mainly would just like things to be different at home, but he's content with the gang. He was okay with them.
Until his father dies.
His old man had always treated him like shit anyway, but there was something inside that was crushed. Dad would sometimes help little Johnny out, it was his mother that had made things worse for him. After his death, Johnny couldn't cope much anymore, he was used to being able to, but now his emotions were out of control. He starts to spiral downwards.
The gang is with him the whole time and tries their hardest to keep him at his best, but Johnny becomes irrational, too unpredictable for the gang to even understand but Johnny doesn't go down alone, he brings someone with him.
Y/n Jones, a girl who has been by Ponyboy Curtis side ever since they were born. Through thick and thin they dealt everything together. Their problem would be the others too. They were an inseparable duo but what happens when Ponyboy slowly becomes distant with his childhood best friend Y/n Jones? What if she falls for someone else other than him? Is it too late to confess his love or not? Read and see.

"I can explain" He began. "Shut up Ponyboy Curtis!" I raised my voice. I stood up now and stood in front of him. "Let's just go to the lot, Y/n." Johnny said but I ignored him. "How come all of a sudden your hanging out with socs? How come everybody has been looking at me with disgust and laughing behind my back? They were all looking at me when you walked passed me!"

"Johnny?" a small whisper called me. I turned and Y/n was holding my wrist. "Will you stay with me?" I didn't want to say no, I wouldn't say no anyways. I nodded and took both of our shoes off before I got in bed with her, making sure to keep my distant. I looked at her and smiled. "You're gonna be okay."
