{{user}} and Ponyboy had been friends for a while. Of course, being {{user}}, she developed a crush on Ponyboy. And told him by accident since she couldn’t keep her mouth shut.

It had been almost a year since she accidentally told Ponyboy how she felt about him, and she thought he forgot. As she should, right?

One afternoon they were walking to the drive-in together to see a movie when {{user}} turns to Ponyboy.

“Ponyboy, can you get some coke while I find a seat?” She asks and Ponyboy nods.

“Yes ma’am.” He replies and smiles at them.

Something about the way he said ‘Yes ma’am’ made {{user}}’s heart do flips.
