Chapter Text
Johnny
"Man I'm getting tired" I said in my head while walking to Pony's house. It was almost 1 week after the court trial of me killin that soc and they declared it self defense. I was only in Juvenal detention for a week but it was hell. I missed Pony so much in that week so I decided to go a visit him because I was just let out. I was super tired because I got barely any sleep so I'm hoping that Pony would let me stay.
I walk up to his front steps and peek in the window. I see Soda and Steve at the table playing cards and fighting like always, Darry was sitting in a chair reading a magazine, then I saw Pony... He was pacing back and forth and mumbling something to himself, he looked worried about something but I couldn't lip read very well. I walk up to the door and open it.
"Hey y'all" I say trying to be very positive
"Hey Johnny!" I herd Soda and Steve say in unison.
"JOHNNY!" Pony says instantly stopping in his tracks and running up to me.
"How was Juvenile detention? Did you sleep well?" Pony says to me very excitedly
"It was alright, everyone kinda just left me alone since I was in there for murder, but I didn't sleep well at all unfortunately"
Darry looks up from his magazine looking directly at me
"Hey Johnny if you would like we have a guest bedroom if you would like to use it for a while since we know you probably don't wanna go back home to your folks" Darry says to me
"Thanks Darry, yeah I'll definitely take that" My parents locked me out of the house because of what Two bit said to my mom at the hospital. My dad threatened to put me back in the hospital after he was done to me and pushed me out the door. I haven't been back since.
"You look super tired Johnny, I think you should get some rest" Pony says looking concerned
"Alright let's hit the hay" I said to Pony
"Here I'll show you to your room" Pony says grabbing my wrist and pulling me along. I blush because I definitely wasn't expecting it but I follow him to the room.
Ponyboy
"Man I'm worried about Johnny, He hasn't called in at least 3 days, What if he got beat up while he was in Jail or worse something happend to him" I said pacing back in forth.
"Don't worry kid he's gonna be alright, he probably just forgot to call that's all" Darry said without looking up from his magazine but while listening to him I heard the door handle turn.
A shadowy figure peeps in the door, but then I realized it's Johnny
"JOHNNY!" said stopping in my tracks I'm so glad he's okay I've missed him so much
- skip this because we already said it in johnnys pov and I'm a lazy shit -
I grab Johnny's wrist a pull him to the room, he starts blushing which I find adorable but I shouldn't be thinking like that.
Johnny
Pony pulls me into this tiny little bedroom, there's one bed, a nightstand with a lamp and a single book. On the opposite side there's a brown dresser that seems to have a jewelry box on top and a vase of flowers and there was a door which I'm guessing is leading to a closet of some sort.
"Here's your room!" Pony says while smiling. Ponys smile has always been so adorable. He doesn't have one of those creepy toothpaste ad smiles and which I find makes him look human. I've always suppressed my feelings about Pony but sometimes they come up in my head which makes me embarrassed.
"Make yourself comfortable and if you need anything me and soda are in the next room." Pony says while turning around about to walk out.
"Thanks Pony and tell darrel I said thanks to him too"
"No problem Johnny" he says with a smile and shuts the door carefully. Pony knows I hate when people slam doors because it reminds me of my parents so he's all ways very careful about that stuff.
I sit on the bed and immediately fall asleep.
