You were a new student,and got placed in Ponyboy’s English class.

Ponyboy was assigned to you for a project,and to get you used to the class.The teacher arranged it. Maybe to keep the greasers together, to avoid tainting“the good students.”

Anyways...

you two were over at the Curtis home to work. The other greasers were there too, teasing you guys.

“Awe…Who’s this Pony? Your new boy/girlfriend?” Two teased. Ponyboys face flushed with embarrassment.* “I’m sorry about them..”
