Our secret. Ponyboy x Johnny [DISCONTINUED]

Chapter 1

Johnny Cade POV

My eyes opened slowly, "why had I fallen asleep in this house." I thought to my self, while getting up and taking off my shirt, I could see the purple-ish green bruises my dad has left over the past couple days. I could handle his beating, but it wasn't enjoyable. I mean no one enjoys getting beat but at least he noticed who I am, unlike mom she wouldn't even notice if I was right in front of her.
I pushed my thoughts beside and swiftly got dressed, grabbing my jeans jacket from the end of my messy bed and left the house. I'm not sure what time it is but it looks to be around noon, "Ponyboy should be home." I thought walking up to his house and knocking on the door as Darry makes him keep it locked when no one else is home.
Ponyboy opened the door after unlocking it.

"Hey Johnny."He said pulling me inside and closing and locking the door back.

"Hey Pony, mind if I stay here for a bit?" I asked, he shook his head and walked back into the kitchen, doing what he was doing before.

"So JohnnyCake, what ya been up to today?"He asked looking back at me.

"Oh I just woke up."I chuckled a bit to myself and rubbed then back of my neck.

"It's 1 in the afternoon."Pony said wiping his hands off on a washrag.

"I didn't go to bed until late."I said looking down at the floor.

"How come?"He asked sitting down next to me on the couch.

"Eh I was thinking."I said sighing softly.

"Thinking about what?"He asked a question I didn't have a honest answer to.

"Different things."I said just shrugging it off.

"Oh, it's supposed if you need to sit and talk I'll me here for ya', I know none of the gang would like to sit and talk so come to me If you need someone JohnnyCake."Pony wrapped his arm around me, he kept it there and leaned back on the couch.

"Thanks."I said leaning on him taking in the moment.

"Oh Johnny it's no problem at all."Ponyboy smiled and leaned forward."Say it's awful boring here, you wanna go to the Park Johnny?"Pony jumped up and went to the door opening it.

"Yeah."I said following him down the steps and down the road."Got a weed?"I asked Pony, he nodded and opened the pack of cigarettes, he pulled one out and flipped open his lighter, the fire burring the tobacco and taking a long drag.

"Say, Pony you ever liked someone?"I asked him, walking a little slower than him.

"Eh, maybe when I was younger, I ain't really know now."He replied, giving an answer I didn't think he would give."Why?"

"I don't know there's just this person I seem to like a lot and I don't know what to do about it because they would freak if they knew."I said blushing at the thought of it.

"Well JohnnyCake who is the lucky lady?"Ponyboy jokingly pushed me a bit.

"Well they sure are a doll."I laughed and pushed him back.

"Go ahead spit it out who is it?"Pony stoped walking and looked at me.

"I can't tell you that Pony."I blushed and looked away from him.

"Why not?"He cocked his eyebrow and stared at me.

"Ponyboy...."I trailed on.

"Whatever."He said continuing to walk down to the park.

"I'm sorry Pony, I just can't tell you now."I grabbed the sleeve of his sweatshirt.

"It's fine Johnny, what's so bad about it that you won't tell me?"He asked, I sighed and walked as close as I could to him.

"Ponyboy, I'll tell you when you m ready but for now I'm not."I explained, he nodded and his hand brushed over mine.

"Is it because you like a guy?"He blurted out.I was stunned, something that blunt wouldn't come out a Ponyboy.

"What!?"I choked on the air.

"I'm just asking a question, I love you JohnnyCake but you look like you'd be a bit queer."Pony said taking another drag of his cigarette.

"Oh, um..."I didn't know what to say.

"I was right."Ponyboy said quickly.I looked away quickly, I was embarrassed."It's okay Johnny, no matter what I love ya, the whole gang will."He hugged me tightly, the pressure hurting the bruises.

"Pony."I sobbed into his shoulder.

"Let's go bad to my place actually, I need to talk with you."He said grabbing my arm and pulling me in the opposite direction. Once we got back to Pony's place we sat on the couch, neither of us daring to say something.

"Pony, I feel bad."I said leaning on his shoulder.

"Why?"He asked, looking down at me.

"Well I don't know, the guy I like is a real doll and he's great, I don't think he'll ever feel the same way."I sighed and put my hand in my lap.

"Oh Johnny, that guy would be lucky to have you, you're a great boy."Pony grabbed my face and shook it a bit smiling at me.

"I'd be lucky if he didn't freak out if he found out."I chuckled, Pony didn't let go of my face and for a moment I though about kissing him, his rough chapped lips looked so nice to kiss. The look in his eyes seems like he knows exactly what I'm thinking. To my surprise he leans in, Im about to do so too as the door opens, It was Darry.
