Y/n's POV
"Hey Y/n, you coming to the dance tonight?" My friend asks me. I shrug "If Darry lets me" I reply as we continue walking to my locker.

"Well...I heard rumours of someone that wants to dance with you" she smirks. I whip my head to her. "What!..who!?" I ask. She covers my mouth.

"Clayton" she whispers. My eyes grow wide.
She nods. Clayton is a greaser like us, I'm pretty sure he's 16. I'm only 14. But then again, I'm not complaining, he is pretty cute.

At home~
All of us were eating dinner, the gang included. I look towards Darry. "Hey Dare?" I ask. He looks up at me. "Ya, Y/n?" He asks.

"Could I go to the school dance tonight?" I ask. He sighs "I don't know...is Pony going?" He asks.

"Ya I'm going" he charms in. I smile. Darry looks at me for a moment before Soda cuts in "come on Darry, let em go. They'll be fine" he says. That's why I love Soda.

Darry sighs again "Okay..but keep an eye on her Pony" Darry orders. Pony salutes him.

I slipped on a pair of white flats. I had on a white dress to match it. My hair was curled as well. I take a deep breathe as I look in my mirror. "Perfect" I whisper with a smirk.

I slowly walk out of my room. As I reached the living room, all eyes were on me. I could already feel my face heating up. I hated attention like this, especially since I'm insecure.

"Wow.." Steve whispered, but seeing as it was so quiet we all heard him.

"That a girl" Dal smirks. I blushed even more. Soda slapped in upside the head.

"You look great sis" Pony says. I smile "thanks Pones" I reply.

"I swear, if any boy puts his hands on you at that dance I'm gonna.." Darry trailed off. I chuckled a little.

"Don't worry" I reassure him. Then I remembered Clayton apparently wants to dance with me.

"So should we get a move on?" Twobit asks. Him, Johnny, and Pony were all coming sconce we all go to the same school...and are in school as a matter of fact.

We all agree it's about time to go. I hug Soda "Promise you'll tell me if any boys hit on you?" He asks, in more of a protective brother way. I sigh and nod.

Then I hugged my oldest brother "have fun kiddo...but not to much" he says.

The boys and I head out the door.

We arrived at the school. I saw my friend and ran straight to her while hollering back at the boys "I'll meet you guys later" they all shrug and keep chatting with people in the school gym, where the dance was being held.

"Hey girl" Ali, my friend, greets me. "Hey!" I greet back with a smile. She looks over my shoulder.

"Pony's here?" She asks with a smirk. She has a crush on him. "Yep..Darry made him come to keep an eye on me" I roll my eyes.

"Well...how about while your dancing with Chase, I can keep Pony busy so he won't see you dancing with anyone" she suggests with that trouble smirk of hers. I nod "good plan"

—————
"So anyways, then she said.." Ali stoped her drama gossip and jerks her head behind me. I confusingly turn around to see Clayton coming over to us. Shit! I was so nervous! I turn back to Ali with a 'what do I do!?' look.

"Hey, Y/n"I hear behind me, knowing it's Clayton. Ali gets up from her seat and walks over to Pony. Now the plan was in action.

"Uh-I-Hey Clayton" I shudder. I mentally face palm myself. He chuckles which makes me blush of embarrassment.

"So you wanna dance?" He asks as he puts a hand out. I smile and take his hand "sure"
He takes my hand and walks us to the middle of the gym where people are slow dancing. He places his hands on my hips as I place mine around his neck. We slowly sway to the music.

I tried not to make direct eye contact, I'd blush like crazy. I was sure enjoying the moment though...Dancing with a cute greaser.

I suddenly spot Ali and Pony dancing. I smile
at how nervous Pony looks. I then hear the slow music turn to rock n roll. We both take that as a sign to stop the slow dance.

"I had a great time" he smiles at me. I nod "me to" I reply. He kisses my cheek before he walks away. My cheeks were bright red by now.

I smiled to myself as I start walking back to where Ali and Pony were now sitting. I saw Johnny and Twobit sitting near the bleachers, it looked like Twobit was blabbering to Johnny about something stupid so I didn't have to worry about them....or that's what I thought anyways...

~at home
The boys and I walked through the front door to find Dally, Steve, Soda, and Darry. Two had driven us home.

"Hey guys, how was the dance?" Soda asks, from the table where him and Steve were playing cards.

"Did Y/n have to deal with an Handsy boys?" Dal asks while cracking his knuckles.

"Oh don't worry, Dal" I say as I plop down beside him on the couch.

"Well...I would worry to much" twobit smirks as he walks into the kitchen for a beer I'm guessing. My heart starts racing, did he see me dancing with Clayton? My brothers would flip.

"What do you mean?" Darry raises an eyebrow.

Twobit walks back in with, yep a beer. "Well.." he takes a big gulp of beer before looking towards me. "Little Ms. Curtis over here..had a dance with a boy" he chuckles. Everyone's head snapped towards me.

"What!?" All the boys say in sync.

"It was just some greaser boy" I try to cool it.

"I thought Pony was suppose to watch you!?" Darry's head snaps towards Pony.

"Well..This girl came up to me and asked me to dance...And ya know, I couldn't say no" Pony explains.

"Ha, little Curtis got a boyfriend now" Dal chuckles as he lights a cancer stick. I slap his arm.

Later that night~
I felt a tap on my shoulder. I toss my body around in bed. "Yes, Soda?" I sigh.

"So, Tell me about him...is he nice at least?"
Soda asks. I take my arms out from the covers and lay straight on my back while I look up at the celling.

"He's sweet...really cute.." I say quietly. Soda smiles. "..I think he's Curly Shepard's friend" I scrunched my eyebrows together. "Nope." Soda said as he turns around and starts to fall back asleep. I chuckle to myself as I do the same.
