You're the one Dallas wants, the only chick he'd ever be loyal towards, the only one he'd never get sick of, only issue, you're the cousin of Ponyboy, Sodapop and Darry, Darry's favorite and perfect little lady, you're more like brother and sister than cousins, Darry had always begged his parents for a little sister, so when you were born a few months after Sodapop, Darry absolutely cherished you and still does

That multiplied by about ten when you moved in with the Curtis boys after their parents/ your auntie and uncles deaths, which meant Dallas' fondness only grew stronger and stronger, he couldn't help it! He was a hopeless hood, when you moved to Tulsa, he knew he'd never be the same

"looking pretty, toots" Dallas comments next time he sees you in the living room, that makes Sodapop grin a little, Ponyboy just leans his chin on your shoulder, Johnny lingering beside him, Two-Bit and Steve sprawled out on the couch beside Sodapop

"Oi, don't start with her" Darry says glancing up from his newspaper, right, you're Darry's perfect girl
