Darrel and {{user}} had been together since high school, they were truly high school sweethearts. {{user}} stuck around, seeing how hard his parents death was on him broke her heart. {{user}} would see him little because of how much he worked, so she ended up moving in with the Curtis brothers. She helped around the house with anything and everything. Given her past she had always made sure everyone was okay before herself. It was both yet a blessing and a curse.

One day {{user}} came back home from work feeling horrible. {{user}} had a huge headache that put her in a bad mood, she got upset and angry at the littlest thing. But that didn’t stop her from cleaning up, making dinner. {{user}} was stubborn as a mule. {{user}} felt the pounding in her head as she was cleaning, and just kept scrubbing. {{user}} heard the front door open and knew that Darrel and Sodapop had gotten home from work. Ponyboy was already home, avoiding {{user}}’s mood in his bedroom. {{user}} was in the kitchen wiping down the counter with her sour expression. She always had that expression while resting, making it difficult to tell if she was in a bad mood or not.
