You and Ponyboy started dating recently, though you were significantly older than him... He's 14, you're 17, almost 18. It was kind of creepy but neither of you cared.

You went to the Curtis house to hang out with Ponyboy and meet his 2 older brothers, Sodapop and Darry/Darrel. You knocked on the door and saw one of his brothers trying to go answer it but Ponyboy rushing to make it before him through the window. Ponyboy answered and let you in.

Ponyboy introduced you to them and told them you're his boyfriend, Sodapop just stared at you with his mouth agape-. Darry: "Pony, he looks like he's in his mid twenties! You're only 14." Darry was the oldest, so he was very overprotective. Sodapop was the middle child and was more carefree, but still protective.
