You are a failure. You felt your eyes water as you looked at your paper that had a big F on it. You had promised your parents that you would score high on this test since you were doing very badly in school ever since you started hanging out with the gang. The bell rang. You packed up your bags and started walking home. Your mind kept repeating the day Your parents had a agreement with you.
-Flashback-
"Y/N! how do you expect to get into a good college with these grades!" your mom said as she slammed the papers on the kitchen table
"I-Im sorry.." you said softly. You knew it wasn't the best answer but it was better than no answer. Suddenly, your dad came walking over to you and your mom.
"ITS BECAUSE OF HER NEW FRIENDS- EVER SINCE SHE STARTED HANGING OUT WITH THEM HER GRADES HAVE NEVER BEEN WORSE" Your dad hollered
"Dad! you began Its not the gang! there nice guys! " you said defending them.
"I DONT WANT YOU HANGING OUT WITH THEM" He cried
"DAD PLEASE- THERE MY f-first friends in Tulsa." you said trying not to let the tears pour out of your eyes. Your mom looked at you, then to your dad
"Ugh Y/N, I hate it when you do this she said while scratching her head. Okay here's the deal you have that big math test coming up next week and.. if you get a good score... I guess we'll reconsider" she said
"THANK YOU SO MUCH MOM!" You said while running over to hug her.
-Present-
Well. So much for that day you mumbled as you looked over your test. You arrived home when you stared at the door just waiting for all the yelling and crying inside the house. You opened the door and found your dad sitting on the couch watching tv and your mom in the kitchen making brownies. As you shut the door behind you, your dad looked over at you.
"Hey Kiddo!" he said while getting up. "How was the test? he said while grabbing the paper from your hands. "Well, I uh- you started to explain but it was too late, your dads eyes were getting really wide.
"Y/N, Y/M/N, Y/L/N" He said "HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN I-" he started
"Dad I can explain I- "
"NO" he cut you off. "I don't want to see you hanging out with them anymore, " he said
"BUT DAD YOU CAN'T DO THAT" You said while storming past him and grabbing the paper from his hands.
"I'll see them when I want to" You said coldblooded.
"Y/N YOUR NOT GOING OVER THERE ANYMORE AND THATS FINAL"
"You cant tell me what to do, I'm old enough to make my own decisions without you getting on my back"
Then that was it. For a split second there you felt a sharp sting on your right cheek as you hit the cold hardwood floor. You looked over at your dad who was shaking and looking at his hand and your mom was leaning on the kitchen doorframe wide-eyed.
"Y/N" your dad began But you got up and bolted out the door. Making the house shake after you slammed the door. You were running with all your strength, while wondering where to go. Suddenly you remembered the Curtis' house. you turned right and didn't stop running until you reached their house. You pulled up your hoodie and walked inside the house. It was warm and welcoming, and it smelled like Vanilla. You looked around and saw Johnny on the couch.
"Hey Y/N" he said smiling
"Hey Johnny.." you said while taking a seat next to him. It was an awkward silence for the next 5 minutes. But you didn't care. Your cheek stinged really badly and you tried to cover it up with your sleeve. Suddenly 6 hyped boys walking through the door broke the silence.
"Hey Johnny, Hey Y/N" Sodapop said
"Hey.." you replied softly
"Hey guys where ya been? Johnny said
"Target." Darry said firmly while placing all the bags on the table "But we got kicked out because these 5 nincompoops decided it would be fun to hit people with mannequins. Darry said while placing all the groceries in their place.
You let out a small laugh, of course they would do that. Suddenly, Soda sat down next to you
"So what have you been doin' doll? he said
"What's it to you?" You said firmly
Everybody stopped what they were doing and looked at you. You never said anything like that to any of the gang.
"Well Gee I don't know maybe cause I care about you and want to see what your up to?" Soda said
"Whatever"
"Y/N.. Darry said while walking towards you "take off your hoodie" he said Coldly.
You didn't say anything.
"Y/N take it off now" Darry repeated it again only this time it was a bit louder. You let out a shaky breath and took of your hoodie. Reveling a big purple bruise on your cheek.
"Oh my god!" Steve said while walking towards you..
"Y/N what Happened?" cried Johnny
"M-My father.. he-" you started but was cut off by Dally
"I KNEW IT!" he said
"Calm down Dallas" Sodapop said "and Y/N what's with the blood on your face?" he continued
"Blood?" you questioned you walked up to the mirror to find your bottom half of your face covered with blood.
"Oh.. " you said finally remembering "I fell on the floor pretty hard and hit my nose"
"Y/N that better be from your nose" Two-bit piped up
"It is."
"Well why did he hit you?" asked Ponyboy
"I'm failing school.. I made my parents a promise that if I got a good grade on my test they would allow me to hang out with you guys.."
"WOT!?" the gang cried
"Y/N THEY DONT LET YOU HANG OUT WITH US?" Ponyboy screamed
"mhm.."
"WHY!?" Cried Dallas
"I don't know.." they think your a bad influence on me.. and that you're playing a big role in my grades dropping.
"Why didn't you tell us this sooner?" Darry asked
"B-because.." You began. But it was no use. Just thinking about it made you want to cry. Then, you burst into tears
"I DONT WANT TO LOOSE YOU GUYS.." You cried "YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST FRIENDS I EVER HAD.. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'D DO WITHOUT YOU!" You said while putting your face in your heads.
"Y/N.. your not gonna loose us we love you too much to let you go" Sodapop said
"Shoot Y/N your the reason why I come here everyday" Johnny said
"Yeah kid.." Dally said
"And you're welcome to stay here anytime you want" Darry said
"yeah.. and You can come stay with me at the lot" Johnny said
"awe shoot man- I guess You can come stay with me at Bucks too" Dally said uncomfortably
"Thanks guys.. you said while they all came in and gave you a big hug.
"Of course Y/N.. We love you to the moon and back"
