Your head turned to look at Ponyboy. Your friends were so insistent that all greasers were no good hoodlums and not talk to him, but he was just so dang cute. He was sweet to you once you started up an actual conversation with him, talking about his love of books and writing. You thought it was adorable the way he tried to act tough and nonchalant, but as soon as you gave him any sort of attention his eyes lit up. And that’s how you found yourself here: 

You held onto the door handle as Ponyboy took another sharp turn, “I thought you knew how to drive Pony!” Your voice came out as a frantic yell, trying to talk over the wind whipping by the open windows. 

“I said I knew how to hotwire NOT that I knew how to drive it!” His foot pressed further into the gas pedal; It was currently past his curfew and Darry was going to skin him when he got home, but your excited laughter made him want to keep going. Sure you two just hotwired a car and were joyriding around at 1am, and sure he was supposed to be the smart one, but who ever said he was boring? (Steve did. All the time. But he won’t mention that to you, you we’re supposed to think he was cool) 

“Where did the shy Ponyboy who would never be so sassy with me go! Bring him back!” You softly punched his shoulder jokingly while letting go of the handle. You let yourself relax and lean out the window, smiling as the tree’s pass by in a blur. 

He scoffed and rolled his eyes, “Yeah right, I’m not shy,” his voice came out in more of a whine then he intended and a slight red took over the apples of his cheeks and tips of his ears. 

Pony’s foot let off the gas pedal, slowing down temporarily to steal another glance at your face. He had been doing that a lot lately; During the classes you two shared where he used to pay attention, he’s been zoning out while totally not staring at you… he’s just been staring near your general direction and occasionally catches his eyes roaming over your face. (Johnny laughs and elbows Pony every time he sees this)

He snaps out of his daze and smiles slightly, you really were a bad influence on him. The banter between you two continued easily and he let his thoughts wander some more; A couple months ago he would never even think about doing this, at least not without someone like Dallas around. Your addictive personality nevertheless sucked him in and he found himself wanting to be more fun for you. His brothers definitely were starting to notice the change; How he spent less and less time around the house, they tried to interrogate Johnny on a few occasions but he was sworn to secrecy, Pony made sure of that.

You looked back at him when you were sure he was done glancing over, not wanting him to see the pink that was dusting your cheeks because gosh why did he have the banter between you two have to feel so right and why was he, a greaser, your, a soc, type. You couldn’t help the next words from spilling out of your mouth, it was now or never.

“Y’know, I really like you.” 

“Huh” 

You both flung forward as Ponyboy slammed on the brakes while facing you, the blush growing on his face.

“I-”

Blue and red lights accompanied by sirens filled the silence as both of you immediately went from blushing to pale. 

“Oh shit” You cursed and sunk into the passenger seat, your parents are going to kill you.

Hi!! This is my first post ever on tumblr and honestly my first time writing for the Outsider's so I hope it's ok! This ended up being really self indulgent and oc but it fulfilled something in me so!
