Darry and Dally looked at (Y/N) from the couch. She was talking with Soda on the front porch, smiling, laughing at what he said. They both thought wewe had a beautiful laugh, and that wewe were completely adorable.
Darry was jealous of Soda, he thought he could take better care of you, provide a better life.
Dally thought he could protect wewe more, and upendo wewe better.
Their hearts both broke as Soda leaned down to kiss you.

Darry was jealous of Soda, he thought he could take better care of you, provide a better life.
Dally thought he could protect wewe more, and upendo wewe better.
Their hearts both broke as Soda leaned down to kiss you.
wewe groan and turn over. wewe had the flu. wewe were really sore,tired, and cold. wewe thought nothing could make wewe feel better.
“Hey, (Y/N), wewe hungry?” Your boyfriend Soda asks from the doorway.
wewe shake your head. “I’m just cold.” wewe sniffle.
“Well that can be fixed.” He says smiling.
He gets onto the bed, and snuggles close to you, and puts all the blankets on juu of you.
“Soda, you’re gonna get sick and…”
“I don’t care… All I care about is you, and that you’re gonna feel better.”
The cars zoomed by.
“This makes me so nervous.” wewe say.
“Why?” Soda asks, smiling.
“What if the cars blow up, and we die? au what if they crash? Or-“
“Hey it’s going to be fine,” He interrupts you. “Have some popcorn.”
“But what if I’m eating popcorn and the cars blow up and we die?”
“Then I’ll blow up and die eating popcorn with the girl I love.”
And he kisses wewe on the lips.
“Darry, how do wewe feel about kids?” wewe ask.
“About having kids?” He asked. wewe were nervous.
“Yeah.”
“I’ve never told anyone this really… But it’s been my goal in life to be a better father figure than I ever was to Soda au Ponyboy… I thought I did a good job, but I know I could’ve done better.” He scratches his neck. “So yeah I’d want to have kids.”
“Well that’s good.” wewe smile.
“Why?” He asks. “You aren’t…” He starts, but then looks at you. “You are aren’t you?” His smile lights up the whole room.
wewe nod your head. He picks wewe up in a big kubeba hug.
“Daddy, do I look ok?” Grace asks. I put down my newspaper to look at my 15 mwaka old daughter. Wow.
“You look beautiful, sweetheart.” It pained me to see her going on her first date. But I was smiling.
“I’ll be good, Daddy, I promise.”
I grin. Exactly what her mother alisema to her dad on our first date.
“I know.” I manage to say. “You’re a good kid.”
“Not like Faith,” Grace grins. Oh my Faith. Nine years old and already had a “boyfriend”. She was completely hilarious.
“Not like Faith.” I smile.
I get up off the kitanda to give her a hug.
“I upendo wewe Daddy.”
“Love wewe too, sweetheart.”
“You’re still going to be the first boy I fell in upendo with.”

Darry’s P.O.V
“Daddy?” Danny asks from the back seat. He was six now, and Olivia was one.
“What happened to your mommy and daddy?” He asks.
I don’t answer for a minute, just keep driving. What do I say?
“My mommy and daddy are hanging out in heaven.” Is all I can think of to say.
“They’re partying with Jesus?” Danny asks. “That’s cool!”
“Yeah, bud,” I smile. “Partying with Jesus.”
“Yes I do.” She says in that you’ve-told-me-a-million-times voice.
“Ok… Well are wewe sure wewe want to do this?” I ask nervously.
“I’m positive.” She says as she gives me a quick kiss on the lips.
“I swear, if wewe hurt yourself…” I shake my head.
The motorcycle starts, and goes forward. Instead of going with the motorcycle., she flips off backwards from it.
I immediately rush to (Y/N).
“Oh my god, (Y/N), are wewe ok? Are wewe hurt? Where are wewe hurt?” I say, head spinning. If she’s hurt badly I’ll just…
“Dally I’m fine.. The motorcycle-“
“Steve can fix the motorcycle. Are wewe ok? Where are wewe hurt? Do we need to go to the hospital?”
“Dally I’m fine!” She laughs.
“You worry me,” I say, as I scoop her into a hug.
wewe aren’t exactly sure what you’re humming to… But it’s something.
“Hey, (Y/N), have wewe seen my-” “THUD!” wewe rip open the kuoga curtain to see your boyfriend had tripped over the doorway.
“Oh my god, Two-Bit, are wewe ok?!?” wewe gasp.
He looks up at you. “Oh my god you’re in the shower!” He yells.
wewe yank the curtain back, covering yourself up.
“Two-Bit, are wewe ok honey?”you ask.
“After seeing that I’m not.” He says. “Damn, your beautiful.” He says, blushing.
“What a pig.” wewe laugh.
wewe knew your boyfriend was there, and all his friends.
wewe hated it when they fought.
Those stupid fights.
wewe went over to lot, to make sure things weren’t getting out of hand. If they were, you’d definately call the police.
It would risk them getting arrested, but wewe didn’t want any of them hurt; au dead.
wewe saw bodies going at each other, caked in mud and blood.
wewe start to walk towards the fight (like an idiot) and are met with a ngumi, punch to the face.
wewe fall into the mud, shocked kwa the blow.
“Hey! That’s my girlfriend!” Soda yells as he pushes the Soc over, and starts beating him repeatedly.
wewe feel a hand on your shoulder as wewe get up. wewe grab the hand and flip him over.
“Hey,” wewe thought. “This is fun.”
wewe understood why they liked these so much.
“(Y/N), please stay out of this.” Darry says, eyes still locked on his younger brother.
“She has a point.” Ponyboy snorts.
“Don’t use that tone with me, young man.” Darry says, voice raised.
“Who went and made wewe dad?” Ponyboy asked, shrugging his shoulders.
“You take that back.” Darry says, lunging for Ponyboy.
They start beating up on each other, nothing serious. Brothers will be brothers.
“Hey! Knock it off!” wewe say, trying to separate them on the ground.
Smack!
wewe fall back, the hit getting wewe hard.
The boys freeze, realizing they’ve hit you.
“Ow!” wewe say. “That was my boob!”
They burst out laughing.
“Oh my god, Steve. Your eye.” wewe say as wewe remove the ice pack.
“It’s just bump.” He grins.
“A bump? Honey, it’s a huge black eye. It’s zaidi like an egg.” wewe say.
“Old Man can still pack a punch, huh?”
“Steve, wewe need to get out of there.” wewe say matter-of-factly.
“I got nowhere to go.”
“You can stay with the Curtises. au me. I just don’t like seeing wewe hurt.” wewe whisper.
“I’d rather it be me than you.” He says.
“What?” He asks, glancing over at you.
“You’re gonna get pulled over,” wewe say, rolling your eyes.
“Do wewe think I’d care?” He laughed.
“Dallas Winston, I am shocked and appalled wewe just alisema that to me and ran that red light.” wewe laugh. “I’m horrified at your driving skills. Remind me not to get into a car with wewe again.”

Light cracked the sky open. The crash that followed jolted wewe awake. wewe sit up in your bed, wide eyed with fear.
wewe had been afraid of thunderstorms since wewe were little… something about it just frightened wewe to no end.
The sound of your boyfriend breathing calmed wewe down. The rhythmic deep breathing soothed you, only for a second.
Another crack lit up the sky, with a giant boom that followed.
“Dally.” wewe shake your boyfriend awake.
“Babe… what’s the ma-” He stops as he sees your eyes, wide with fear. He sits up straight and wraps his arms around wewe pulling wewe close. “You’re fine… You’re fine.” He whispers, rocking wewe back and forth. “I got you. I promise. I got you.” Hands running through your hair.
“I just don’t like them.” wewe mumble into his bare chest.
“I know. I know.” He say. “But I still got you. I promise.”
But wewe were already asleep again.
