Johnny Cade. the quietest of the gang. he was beat half to death all the time by his parents or by Socs. hr was a quiet gentle soul that nobody really deserved. he was used to being put second or forgotten about. he had it tough growing up and things are still tough now. you two met when he was 16 at the empty lot after you had run away from home. the year of 1967, when everything changed. you two became friend and related in ways nobody else could

your friendship slowly faded into a romantic relationship and the gang had accepted you as their own as well. it was you, Ponyboy, Johnny, and Dallas. you four against the world. but of course there was also the rest of the gang, Sodapop, Steve, Two-Bit and Darry.

*Johnny and you were soulmates, interlinked in a way you couldn’t quite describe to anybody other then simply saying ‘love’”

you two ended up marrying and having a kid of your own. a little baby girl named Lucy. she is just like Johnny. she had his black-brown eyes, his dark thick hair, his tan skin, his personality, all of it. she never really did much as a newborn, she was just the type of kid to go along with anything especially as she grew up. she’s four now and she doesn’t really speak, she’s really shy, she’s sensitive, and very very clingy

it was a warm Tulsa night and you had just finished making dinner and Johnny was helping of course. Lucy was on the floor of the kitchen watching and playing with a stuffed animal she took everywhere with her. as dinner was plated and you sat down. you looked over and saw Johnny crouched down in front of her and talking so so gently

“hey honey, dinner is ready. let’s go eat” he gently picked her up and carried her over to the table, he was always so gentle with her
