#(he is absolutely doin it to scare darry)

[broareweabouttoviberightnow]

pony has a real affinity for sittin his ass down to read in weird spaces n then bein utterly silent for hours. which usually ends up one of two ways. either darry comes home n asks soda where pony is n he just points behind the couch where ponys been curled up for the past four hours despite every chair in the house bein empty. OR. darry opens his closet n nearly jumps outta his skin cause ONE guess whos there.

Can you do a Dally x Curtis reader where the reader wants to fight in the rumble, but Dally is worried about his girlfriend because she is super angry about what happened to Johnny. Could you possibly do Josh's Dally, please

Author's Note: I love this like actually

"Let me fight for him, please"

Dallas Winston x fem!Curtis sister reader

The tension in the Curtis house was thick enough to choke on.

You were pacing. Again.

Boots laced, jaw clenched, knuckles red from punching the side of the garage earlier. Your brothers were out back getting ready, but you had your own plan: fight. Make those Socs bleed. Make them feel something close to what you felt.

The loss was rotting you from the inside out.

Johnny was dying.

Johnny — sweet, quiet, scared Johnny — was dying. And the only thing keeping your lungs from giving out was the way your fury burned hotter than your grief.

“Absolutely not.”

You turned sharply. Dally was leaning in the doorway, arms crossed, voice hard. But his eyes — God, his eyes — they weren’t angry.

They were scared.

“You can’t stop me,” you said coldly.

“The hell I can’t,” he snapped, stepping forward. “You think Darry and Soda’d just let you go get your face bashed in like it’s a street game? You think I’m gonna let my girl walk into a damn rumble like it’s nothin’?”

“I’m not just your girl, Dal,” you hissed, voice shaking. “I’m Johnny’s friend. I love him. And he’s dying. And I can’t— I can’t breathe unless I do something about it.”

He grabbed your wrist when you turned away, but not rough. Never rough. Just firm enough to stop you.

“You think I ain’t dyin’ over him too?” he whispered. “You think I’m not barely holdin’ it together? But I got you. That’s what’s keepin’ me from doin’ something stupid.”

You blinked hard, the edges of your vision blurring.

“Dally…”

“Don’t make me lose you.”

There was a long silence. Just your breathing. His breathing. The crackle of your anger dimming under the weight of his grief.

You stepped toward him. “I wasn’t gonna stand there and let them win.”

“You don’t gotta fight to win, baby,” he murmured, brushing your hair from your face. “You just gotta live.”

You fell into his arms then, finally letting the tears fall. And for once, Dally didn’t pretend to be made of steel. He held you like you were the last thing keeping him grounded — because you were.

Author's Note: hey guys

hcs for ponyboy getting pneumonia 🤩

cant wait for this fucker to die off already (i would b very sad if he did)

•ponys got pneumonia a couple of times before and after this poi t, once as a baby, twice as a teen, he WILL get it in the future, hes a sick guy what can we say

•part of the reason y everyone in the gang is so protective of pony is BC he was pretty sick as a baby, ponys had 2 near death experiences and THAT was one of em.

•imma b frank n tell yall that they havent rlly went to the hospital for it before, each time pony got it, it was mild and even then they didnt know it was pneumonia SPECIFICALLY, just that he was pretty sick

•when he “got it” after dallys death n such, what caused it was being in that church for so long w all the dust, mold, shitty air, etc etc. he had bacterial pneumonia and its not like it just POPPED up one day, he was sick and just ignored it w pills n such to keep on pushin.

•w this pneumonia however, it was just flat out thee worst hes ever had it and ever will have it, the other times were more manageable while this time, combined w pony being very hallucinative, they feared pony was gonna die and thats y soda stayed at ponys side, scared he was gonna go out alone

•they knew it wasnt no regular ass sickness when ponys lips and fingernails started lookin blueish, im not kidding they thought ole ponyfella was gonna have to b put DOWN

•smoking can make it rlly hard for u to rlly clear ur airways, so ik ponys coughs were WET, he could cough as hard as he wants, hes done for either way (if u wanna hc him w asthma as well, it sounded like he was genuinely struggling to breath, he was wheezing loud and couldnt take deep breaths, just drinking was hell for him

•the type of pneumonia pony got is contagious for like 48 hours, he absolutely got a few ppl sick as well, maybe not as bad, but it was still there for sure, soda most def got sick but he was just glad ponys doin better while pony felt bad

•darry stuck by pponys side but i love thinking he felt a lil guilty for what happened to pony so he can only do it for so long before feeling like shit, he does make his soup and gives pony a lot of orange juice so he still feels a lil helpful

•bc bacterial pneumonia has symptoms that rlly do require medical attention, when pony was able to gain so semblance of consciousness in between his bouts of confusion he would refuse to go. he doesnt like hospitals and mumbled about the social worker finding that put and taking him away but darry and soda for the first time in forever didnt gaf about that, just wanted pony alive damn it!!

•funnily enough as much as he fought against it, pony doesnt remember it, but instead they just called a doctor to come over and take a look at the guy. he probably just thinks of it as a delusion or something, but he didnt rlly care that much to ask, cause a week and a half later he was feelin better

now THANKFULLY i get ur other ask before i finished this one so heres that curly bit🙏🏽🙏🏽

•they didnt see each other for MONTHS after pony got sick bc curly still had the 6 months to serve, tim told curly what was happening w pony but he focused more so on the fact that his 2 friends instead if him being sick which honestly, yea i get.

•so pony being sick COMPLETELY skipped passed his mind he thought it was like a kinda bad cold, nothin BAD like pneumonia😭

•reason y curly was like “hmmmm somethings off w him,,,” is bc yes, once again his friends died not too long ago, but also the pneumonia lowkey fucked his mental up, someone save this kid😭😭

The Other Woman…Part 2!

Summary: Reader leaves the Curtis house and bumps into 2 certain people

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

“Jesus, what is her problem?” Sylvia says before pulling Dallas back into another passionate kiss. Soda is on the couch opposite to them, looking at the back of Sylvia’s head with an upset and angry expression, one you don’t see that often from Soda.

“You” Soda mumbles under his breath. Clearly not quiet enough because Sylvia broke the kiss with Dallas and whipped her head around to look at Soda. “You wanna repeat that?” She said, acting all tough.

“Yeah, you know what, I will. You’re the problem, Sylvia. So are you, Dallas.” Soda says in an angry tone. You don’t hear that from Soda. Ever. At all. “You’re both the problem and you know it-“ Soda says. He was going to continue before Dallas cut him off.

“I can’t do this” he says, defeatedly. This is also a tone you don’t hear from Dallas often. Sylvia looks back at him. “What do you mean, honey?” Dallas looks a bit more angry. “Don’t call me that”. Sylvia looks shocked but gets off of his lap. “What’s wrong, Dally?” She asks, desperately. “I can’t be with you. I just can’t. I don’t love you” he said coldly. “What-?” She said, just to be cut off by Dallas. “Get out. I don’t want to see your face” he says, pointing to the door and not looking at her. “Dallas-“ she says, getting cut off once again. “I said, get out” Dallas said, louder than last time. With that, Sylvia left.

You were already long gone, too far away for anyone to find. You left the house in a daze, feeling hurt at what happened. Tears fell from your eyes as you walked. The cold night air hitting you like a train, even through the black leather jacket Darry had gotten you for your 17th birthday a couple of months ago

You felt anger, sadness, and all together confusion. Why were they back together? Why was he kissing her in front of you? Why did he sit RIGHT next to you? You questioned as you walked, eventually leading you across the train tracks. You were too caught up in your thoughts to realize you stumbled to the Soc side of town

You realized as soon as you saw a familiar dark blue mustang pull up beside you. Bob Sheldon and Randy Adderson. Soc boys. Bob was driving (he surprisingly wasn’t too drunk) and looked up at you

“Hey, reader” he said with a devilish smirk. Randy was in the passenger seat. You tried to ignore him and kept walking, but he kept up to your speed, driving slowly in his mustang.

Finally, you got fed up. “What do you want?” You look at him and finally stop walking. He stops driving, keeping the car on, and looks at you. “And what’re you doin all alone out here, hm? It’s late. Your friends know you’re out?” Bob says, looking you up and down

“Yes, they do. Now leave me alone.” You said, walking away. Bob started driving again, not pulling his gaze from you. “Come on, lady. We’re just tryna have some fun” Randy says from the passenger seat. “Come on, reader. Get in the car” Bob says, commandingly

You just stop walking and look at him like he’s stupid. Well, he is. “Absolutely not. Why would I do that?” You ask. “Well we’ll drive you home, pretty lady” Bob says. You were so completely confused. Why was he acting like this? Why wasn’t Randy doing anything to stop him? You and randy had been semi-friends, you were partnered together for an English project and just became somewhat friends.

Next thing you knew, you were sitting in the back seat of bobs mustang, the radio playing softly in the back. You weren’t necessarily scared but you weren’t calm either. Just a bit on edge. You didn’t know if you could trust them or not. You knew how Greasers and Socs acted towards each other, so why was Bob doing you a favor?

“What were you doing out, reader?” Bob says, sounding genuinely curious. “I just needed to take a walk. Clear my head, ya know?” You say, fidgeting with your hands in your lap. “Ah, I see” Bob says before pulling up to the Curtis house. Darry is standing on the front porch. Shit.

Darry was kind of a father figure to everyone in the group. When he say who’s car you were in, he instantly got angry. “Reader, where the hell have you been? Why are you with these socs?” Darry erupted, walking towards the car you were in.

“Calm your tits, Darrel. We found her walking by herself and decided to drive her home. Is that such a crime?” Bob says, looking out Randy’s window at Darry. “For you, it is. Reader, get out” Darry says, urging you to get out of the car

You were suddenly walking back into the house with Darry. “What were you thinking?” He said, sitting you down next to Soda on the couch. “What happened?” Soda asked, seeing Darry so angry wasn’t something new, but he usually was never angry at you. “She stormed out of this house. Then, Bob fucking Sheldon and Randy what’s-his-face drove her home!” Darry said, his tone getting angrier and louder. “Come on, Dar, lay off. She’s okay, right?” He says to Darry, the last part more of a question for you. “Yeah I’m alright” you say, looking at Soda then Darry. You haven’t realized Sylvia left yet. Darry was pacing in the living room. You were next to Soda on the couch opposite from Dallas. Then, you notice. Sylvia. She’s gone? You look over at Soda and give him a look that says ‘where’d she go?’

He looks at you and gives you the ‘there’s so much you missed’ look. Darry runs a hand over his face. Then, Dallas speaks up. “I wanna talk to her”. Everyone looks at Dallas. “What?” You say in confusion. “Alone. Please”. ‘Please’. You don’t hear that word come out of Dallas’ mouth unless it’s VERY important. “Okay” you say, standing up. Dallas leads you outside to the front porch, shutting the door behind him. The familiar squeak of the floorboards beneath both of your feet brings you a sense of peace. You look up at him, he’s always been taller than you. “What do you need?” You ask.

He looks puzzled. He looks torn between two options. Hes shaking, clearly nervous. He was fidgeting with his hands and pacing back and forth. He was breathing raggedly and looked like he’d seen a ghost. He ran a hand over his face, like Darry did when he was stressed. You’ve never seen him like this, no one has. Then, he suddenly blurts something out. As if he didn’t mean to.

“I love you”

Did Something Bad Part 2

You finally tell Darry what you did

A week passes by and you still haven't told Darry what happened, the amount of Socs even looking at Greasers to start something has gone down, to them it's a miracle.

Finally, at the end of the third week you know you have to tell Darry before Dally or Tim does. You wish you knew how he was going to react but you're trying to be prepared for anything.

You get off from work when Darry has a day off, once you get to the house, Pony, Dally, and Darry are at the table talking.

Your heart goes to your throat as you set your things down by the door, all eyes are on you.

"Darry," you say. "Can we talk?"

He looks at you nervously for a moment and then nods, he follows you out to the porch and you lead him to your car and sit with him in the side of the street.

"Listen, I did something really bad and you're going to think I'm crazy or maybe even break up with me but you deserve to know."

"Ok.." he says

So you tell him, you tell him your plan, that you did it because you were tired of being scared, tired of seeing the boys come home bloody and bruised, and tied that they took on one person with more than half the people needed, but you also tell him you're not sorry, you don't regret it.

He's really quiet for a long time, you sit there nervously twiddling your thumbs, pressing your palms to your work uniform.

"I figured you were doing something..."Darry said, "Pony said you asked about the plate and who they were but...I never could've thought.."

"I know." You say, "I understand if you can't be with me anymore but I don't regret it Darry. I'm so tired of them hurting you all."

"I can't be mad." He says, "Because I'd do the same for you.."

"But you're horrified by it?" You ask.

"No," Darry says grabbing your hand. "Just amazed."

He looks at you and pulls you close, you hold onto him tightly.

"I am mad you put yourself at risk though and that you didn't tell me sooner."

"I know." You say quietly, "I wanted to let you heal up just in case you pulled a stitch or something."

"You still should've told me."

"I know but I'm not sorry."

He nods and squeezes your hand.

"Don't do that again without me though ok?"

You nod into the hug.

"I mean it." He says pulling away. "We do things together."

You hold out a pinkie and he grabs it with his pinkie, you smile at him and kiss his lips.

"You're absolutely incredible." He says.

"Aww." You say taking your hand back. "You're not too bad yourself."

You jump out of your car before Darry can grab you, he chases you out of the car and grabs you as your running back up to the house. With his hands around your waist he lifts you up and you laugh as he spins you around.

When he sets you down, Pony and Dally come out of the house.

"You tell him?" Dally asks.

"Sure did." You say.

"He pissed?" He asks.

"At you two for not telling me sooner and for you letting her do that type of shit."

"She'd have done it without me," Dally says, "And I know full and damn well she'd do it again for any of us."

"Do what?" Pony asks.

"I'll tell you later." Darry says, "And I know she would but damnit you two could've been hurt, I ain't worth that."

The three people stare at him in confusion.

"Darry," you say, "Not worth it? You're worth everything to us. If they'd killed you, I don't think that side of town would be left standing."

"You're worth everything to all of us. You're loved so much more than you know."

"Exactly." Dally said, "You'd do the same for us, so don't be pissy cause we're doin it for you."

Darry stands there for a moment looking at the three of you before nodding. He gives you a chaste kiss on the cheek, rubs Pony's head and Dally's head before going inside.
