Puppy Dog Eyes - Johnny Cade x Reader

~Chapter Eight: The New Couple in Tulsa~

I could feel my face grow really warm, I looked over at Johnny and his face was red too.

"I-I didn't know you guys were t-there," I stammered.

"And I didn't know you guys were a thing, but here we are," Sodapop said, Two-bit chuckled.

"I knew you two would end up together from the beginning," Two-bit boasted.

After talking for a bit with the gang, the nurse came in.

"Visiting hours are over, you guys can come and see Mr. Cade in the morning," She said.

We all said goodnight to Johnny and left the hospital.

"Dal, Y/N, you guys are welcome to stay at our place tonight, if you would like," Darry piped up.

"I'm meeting this broad tonight," Dally said flatly.

"Thank you Darry, since Dally apparently has plans, I need a place to stay,"

"No problem, your welcome anytime," Darry said.

"Dally, speaking of broads, when are you gonna get in a steady relationship?" Steve asked.

"I don't know man, ever since my breakup with Sylvia I can't seem to get a steady girl," Dally replied.

"Aww, Dally, you'll find someone," I said. His breakup with Sylvia was a mess, the broad was two-timin' him while he was in jail and it happened on more than one occasion.

We continued to walk back to the Curtis house, Dally taking a separate road after a couple of minutes. We talked and laugh along the way.

I had made a plan with Two-bit to go and visit Johnny in the morning.

We made it to the Curtis house and Darry grabbed some blankets and a pillow and Sodapop lent me an old shirt of his to change into. Everyone went to bed, I turned off the TV, and fell asleep.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up and by the looks of it no one was up. I was going to make breakfast.

I went to the kitchen and checked the time, 6:00am. I grabbed some eggs, cinnamon and bread. 

I mixed up the egg and put some cinnamon in, then I coated the bread in the mixture. Then put it in the hot pan. I put some bacon in a separate pan. The smell of french toast wafted to my nose. I had made about 6 pieces when Darry woke up.

"Mornin' Darry," I said.

"Y/N you should've let me do the cooking,"

"I insist, you've been so nice to me, with letting me stay here and all,"

"It looks really good, where'd you learn how to cook like that?"

"An old friend from New York, he was a buddy of Dally's too actually"

"Well, do you mind if I take some to go? I have to get to work,"

"Of course, go ahead!" I say with a smile, he smiles back and puts some french toast and Bacon in a container.

As I'm finishing up the last piece Pony and Soda wake up.

"Morning guys, I made some french toast and bacon,"

I grab them plates and they grab some food.

I grabbed some too, we talked and then Soda left for work.

Two-bit came through the door, he had already started drinking, or he was still drunk. That's Two-bit for you.

We all got ready to set off to see Johnny.

Hopefully he can come home soon...
