On a late Tuesday night you and Johnny had gone out for ice cream, Pony couldn't join because he was on another date with Sheri, and are walking in the park taking your time to get home.
"Omi gosh I remember that!" You laugh into tears from something Johnny said.
Johnny smiles big at your reaction.
Your smile quickly turns into a frown."Oh shoot, I still have to write that stupid essay"
Its as if a lighbulb goes off in Johnny's head. "Hey, why don't you come over to my house and I can help. My folks are outta town anyway."
"Sure Johnnycakes. I've never been to your house anyway."
*at Johnny's house*
The two of you are lying on Johnny's bed with your books laid out in front of you along with a bunch of snacks.
"It really sucks that you have to apologize to Cherry after how mean she's been to ya." Johnny says
"Bullying will not be tolerated at this school Ms. Y/L/N" You say this in a mocking voice of the principal, making Johnny laugh.
God. That's one of the best sounds in the world, you think to yourself.
Two hours later you and Johnny had eaten a ton of snacks and laughed a lot,yet you hadn't done a single piece of work.
You're lying asleep on Johnny's bed when he shakes you to wake you up.

"Y/n, wake up, my folks are back!" He whisper shouts it, loud enough it alerts you but quiet enough his parents don't hear.
You jolt from horizontal to vertical exceptionally fast cause you know how nasty his folks can be.
"Here. Sneak outta my window quietly." Johnny pushes up his window just big enough for you to crawl through.
"Thank you Johnnycakes. I had fun tonight." You kiss him on the cheek as you squeeze through as silently as possible.
The next morning you head to the Curtis's house for breakfast like almost every morning. Your folks aren't around a lot, so why bother being at an empty house.
"Heya Y/n." Soda greets you warmly as you step into their living room.
"Hey Sodapop. You smile back at Soda because it's impossible not to. His smiles are legendarily contagious.
Ponyboy approaches you with a sheepish look on his face "Hey y/n, look I just wanted to apologize about Cherry.
"It's not your fault Pony. Sheri's just evil." You say the last bit with a forced laugh.
"Nah. She just is more shy I guess" Him clearly not getting your forced sarcasm.
"Anyway. I wanted to apologize by inviting you to a party tonight. It's supposed to be super fun, probably full of rich stuff since it's thrown by socs. But still pretty cool."
You see the hopefulness on Pony's face and just can't say no.
"Fiiiiine. But can Johnny tag along. Don't wanna be the third wheel.
"I don't wanna see why not."
*at the party house
"We really stand out here." Johnny says while adjusting his Jean jacket.
You barely hear him over the blaring music.
"We're only here for Pony's sake. Trust me I don't wanna be here anymore than you."
"Oh yeah, he reeeaaaly needs saving,"
Johnny nods his head over to where Pony and Sheri are making out.
You make a throw up motion causing Johnny to smile.
*down stairs in the basement*
"Who wants to play truth or dare, if you don't your chicken." At the chicken part the soc that made the game announcement glances over at you and Johnny, who are huddled in the corner away from everything.
"We'll play" You don't know if you said it out of bravery or idiocy.You tug Johnny to the centre of the room against his will.
The different socs ignore you and dare their friends for the most part until someone mentions Sheri's name.
"Cherry truth or DARE!" A soc asks
"Dare of course" Sheri says with a gloating smile.
"I dare you to do seven minutes in heaven with little grease dude here." He gestures to Ponyboy whose face has gone red as a tomato.
You cringe as every minute clicks by on the watch.
When the timer finally is done Ponyboy emerges with Sheri completely disheveled. And is that a hickey you spot on Sheri's neck. You didn't know Pony had it in him. Even though no one is probably watching you, you blush out of embarrassment at looking so intently at the pair.
What the h8ll went on in that closet?
Sheri's turn. "Truth or Dare Grease?"
At first you think she meant you, and are about to yell at her for calling you grease instead of your name, but realize she actually meant Johnny.
"I, uh, truth I. Uh. Guess" Poor Johnny manages to stammer out.
You and Pony share a worried glance.
"No fun" Sheri frowns. "What pretty girl has your little heart grease?"
He shrugs and bites his lip."Just a really pretty girl I guess. Prettiest eyes, hair, humour. She's one of kind."
You look to Pony for clues but he looks just as confused.
"Great vocab greaser." A soc pokes fun at Johnny.
Before you can say anything to defend Johnny a soc comes storming down the stairs.
"COPS!"
Who knew one sentence could cause so much fear amongst teenagers. Everyone scatters in a panic. As soon as things start to get hectic you grab Johnny's hand to stay together but not long you're torn apart. When you finally make it out to the street, neither Pony or Johnny are in sight. You hear Darry's voice in your head warning you not to get into any more legal trouble. So with one last glance back at the house you leave to your house, hoping that the boys show up sooner rather than later. As you jog off you can't help thinking how fun the epic hangover is going to be tomorrow.
