i need help finding this outsiders fanfiction

hi...im way too old to be reading outsiders fanfiction but i got back into it because of the new musical. i read this fic in like 2017 or 2018 but i think even back then the fic was old. im pretty sure i read it on m.fanfiction.net but if not there it was ao3. i have been searching for days and i cannot find anything, and i can't remember the title or author, so i was wondering if anyone could help me.

it was a one-shot (i think?? maybe 2 chapters?) taking place shortly after the curtis parents died. sodapop was gone for the night, leaving ponyboy and darry alone together, so things were tense. Darry was worried about ponyboy because he had been quiet all night and went to bed early. I remember the very first scene was darry sitting in his recliner in the living room, watching reruns on TV. while he was doing that, he heard ponyboy in the bathroom throwing up. it turns out ponyboy was sick, but he didn't want to seem weak in front of darry so he tried to hide it. darry then took care of him and it was a nice bonding experience for the two of them. they fell asleep on the couch together that night.

if anyone knows what im talking about or is able to find it, please lmk
