Dallas Winston - 𝕀𝕞𝕒𝕘𝕚𝕟𝕖𝕤/ℍ𝕖𝕒𝕕𝕔𝕒𝕟𝕠𝕟𝕤

♡︎best friend

"Dally Winston, he's my best friend but I think I got feelings for him." I told my friend Sydney. She nodded and smiled.

"Have you told him?" She asked and I shook my head. "I couldn't. He means too much to me, I'm sure if he knew he'd run." I said, "And you won't tell him."

She put her hands up in defense, "I barely talk to the guy." She said and I nodded. She had a grin across her cheeks and I was confused. She sighed and stood up, "Sorry y/n I gotta get going. I have practice." She said and I said bye.

I decided to go too, I started walking to Ponyboy's house. I was bored and I wanted to talk to someone who wasn't acting weird. I made it there in a few minutes and I walked in and everybody was there.

"Hey boys," I said and slumped down next to Dally and Sodapop on the couch. Dally smiled at me and I reached over him and grabbed the carton of cigarettes he had on the arm rest. He snatched them and put them back. "Get your own." He said and I grabbed them back. "I'm broke." I said and he rolled his eyes and I stuffed three in my pocket and put the carton back.

"Y/n," Dally said after we watched Two-Bit fail at doing a drunk backflip on the dining table. "Yeah?" I said through laughs.

"I'm going to the drive in, wanna join?" He asked and I nodded and he stood up. I stood up too and walked out the door and we walked to the Nightly Double together.

The movie surprisingly wasn't a stupid beach movie, it was a horror movie. I sat down in the back and he told me he was gonna go get cokes. I snuggled close into my jacket.

He had been gone for half the movie and I got annoyed. I was thirsty so I went to the stands and he was no where to be seen. I rolled my eyes and bought one for myself, he didn't deserve one from me. While I was walking back I noticed a couple making out. I looked back before realizing who it was and I felt my heart drop to my stomach.

It was Sydney and Dally at the side of the entrance. I made sure I wasn't seen and I walked back to my seat and sat for a couple minutes until my drink was finished and I left.

I put my trash in the garbage and I walked passed them and he saw me and ran up to me. "Why are you leaving?" He asked me while pulling my arm back. "There you are, I thought you got up and ran to Mexico." I said and he sighed. "I'm sorry, I got caught up in some business." He said and I looked at the pathway leading out, wanting to dip so badly.

"That's fine, I really gotta get going though. Have fun with Sydney." I said before quickly walking out of there. I saw from the corner of my eyes him standing there, upset. He hadn't moved and I quickened my pace and snuggled into my jacket and walked home.

The next day, I met up with the gang and we all went to cause some trouble around Tulsa. I avoided Dallas the entire time, and he was trying to talk to me. He would always find his way next to me and he would gaze at me and I would move across the crowd and he'd still find his way next to me.

"Okay you two, what's going on?" Steve said and everybody stopped walking. "Nothing." I said and I hid behind Two-Bit. "Why is she avoiding you?" Steve said to Dally and he shrugged.

"Because he ditched me last night to go make out with my friend." I said and he shot an apologetic look at me. I hugged Two-Bit's arm, we've been best friends for years.

"Can we talk about this another time?" Dally asked and I got uncomfortable and Two-Bit looked at him and Dally got the message. He turned around and walked away. I wanted to run after him but I couldn't, maybe I should. I looked at Two-Bit and he looked at me. I let go of him and I ran to him.

I stopped him and he looked at me. "Why did you get so mad?" He asked me and I looked around. The gang was staring at us, and I looked back at him.

I swallowed my entire pride and I kissed him. And he didn't stop me. Every wall that I had built up was shattered and in pieces on the floor, every moral I was for was just in the trash, every single thing I told myself was a lie at this point. It was just him and I in this temporary world right now, until I pulled away. And I did.

He stared at me, breathless. "That's why." I said and I walked towards the group and he just stood and stared at me again like he did last night. Everybody just stared at me in disbelief and I pushed them along and we walked back to the house.

"Guys, I'm gonna head home." I said and they all said bye to me. I walked home and as soon as I stepped inside I let a tear fall. I screwed up, didn't I.

I walked to my bedroom and as soon as I opened the door, somebody rushed to me and kissed me. And judging by earlier events, I knew who it was. He pulled away and both his hands were on my face. I took them in mine and I looked at him.

"Do you know how long I've been waiting for you to do that?" I asked him and he chuckled. "Why didn't you tell me, doll? Why didn't you tell me, because we wouldn't be in this mess?"

"I thought you'd hate me, I thought I'd just be another girl chasing you and getting her heart broken when you get another girl." I said and he shook his head. "No, because you're gonna be that girl that they're broken about." He said and kissed me again. I felt the spark. I felt the feeling I always dreamt about, and I know he did too. I let another tear fall and he pulled away from me.

"Why are you crying?" He whispered sweetly. "Because, for the first time in four months, I'm finally happy."
