Cupid’s arrow really hit Ponyboy hard.

You and Ponyboy were best friends. You had always been close since grade school. You were a greaser, but he and the gang always said you didn’t look like one. You took good care of yourself, and were well put together. Ponyboy thought you were the prettiest girl in town.

The only reason you weren’t a Soc is because of your parents. They gambled, smoked, drank, and were in and out of prison. So you basically raised yourself. A bunch of the time they didn’t come home for days straight, and you normally went over to the Curtis residence to have dinner or to sleep over. If your parents weren’t like this, you’d 100% be a Soc. But, you weren’t as cocky as those Socs. Ponyboy saw you as the most kind hearted person ever.

Valentine’s Day was just around the corner, and you loved Valentine’s Day. Pony knew this. Pony never really believed in all that Cupid’s arrow crap until he started falling for you. He knew he had to tell you about his feelings sooner or later. But he just wasn’t ready yet.

You stepped up the porch stairs of the Curtis residence and let yourself in, as the door was always unblocked. Ponyboy was in the kitchen, staring at the timer of the oven which Darry probably had him watch while he went out for a smoke. He didn’t notice you walk in.
