When He Catches You Singing

Johnny:

You're in your bedroom practicing a song you heard. You keep on singing it because you want to get it right. Finally, you gt it to sound perfect. You're so happy and you clap your hands in delight. Then, you see the door to your room opening. It's Johnny, and he has a huge smile on his face.

"Omg, Johnny, did you hear me?" you ask, embarrassed.

"Yeah, I did, but it was fantastic. I could listen to you sing all day. Really, it's so beautiful, baby."

"You're the sweetest, Johnnycakes," you say.

Dally:

Dally wanted to take you for a spin in his car. As he's driving, you turn on the radio. You start singing along and in your peripheral vision, you can see Dally's smiling. You're really into the music so you don't notice when Dally shuts off the radio.

You keep singing, then you realize there's no more music to drown out your voice. "Dally! Why'd you do that?" you whine.

"I wanted to hear what your voice sounded like," he grins.

"Oh, come on."

"It was hot, Y/N."

"Thank you, love," you say.

Pony:

Pony is at his desk, working on some homework while you're on his bed listening to music. You have your headphones in and you're listening to one of your favorite songs. You're singing softly to the music, or so you think... you can't really hear yourself, but you're actually singing kinda loudly. After the song finishes, you start to search for another song when you see Pony has turned his chair around to face you. He's beaming from one side of his face to the other. You take out your headphones.

"What's got you smilin' like that?" you ask him.

"Your voice. You're so good at singing, baby," he tells you.

"You- you heard me?" you ask, horrified.

"Of course I did," he says, laughing.

"Omg. Whoops. Was it actually good though?"

"YES! It was amazing."

"Awwwww, thank you, Pony," you say and jump up to give him a hug.

Soda:

You're in the recording studio. You want to see if you can record yourself singing a song. You rent out a soundproof room and everything. After you finish singing the song, you go onto your computer and start to edit your voice. Suddenly, you hear someone knocking on the door. It's Soda. You widen your eyes and open your door. You see him wearing headphones.

"Uhh, Soda, what are you doing here?" you ask him.

"Hi, angel. I knew you were recording today, so I thought I would come by and listen. You sound great, by the way." He winks at you.

"What- how did you hear?"

"I connected my headphones to your mic." He smiles.

"Omg, Soda," you say, shaking your head.

"Don't worry, love. I thought you were perfect."

Darry:

You're the only one in the Curtis house, so you decide to sing a song you've been wanting to try out. You reach every single high note. As soon as you're finished, you hear clapping. You whip around and are surprised to see Darry with a huge smile on his face.

"Darry- I thought you were working," you say, stuttering.

"I got off early. I had no idea you had that kind of voice, baby. Seriously, you should sing on Broadway or something," he says.

"Oh, stop it. I'm not that good."

"You really are," he tells you and wraps his big arms around you.

Steve:

You decided to take a shower before your date with Steve. You knew he was in the room right next to the bathroom, but you thought if you shut the door, he wouldn't be able to hear you singing. The thing was, you had a killer voice but you were too embarrassed to let anyone hear.

You started singing and it was like a voice of an angel. Steve instantly heard you and pressed his ear up against the bathroom door before quietly letting himself in.

He stood in the doorway, listening to you, holding his breath because he didn't want to make a sound, for fear you would kick him out. He thought your voice was the most beautiful thing he had ever heard. He was so focused on your singing. When he heard the water shut off, his eyes widened and he ran out of the room as quickly and quietly as possible. He made it back to the bedroom without you even being suspicious.

Your voice was playing in his head the entire night.

Two-Bit:

You're having a dance and karaoke party in your room, since no one's home. You're singing at the top of your lungs and having a great time. Little do you know, Two-Bit snuck into your house and he could hear everything. He was doubled over laughing. When you turned the music off, he came running into your room with a huge smile on his face. "Again, again!" he cheered.

You stood there looking at him. You were mortified.

"OMG, Two-Bit. How long were you here?" you ask.

"Long enough." He smiles.

You roll your eyes and put your face in your hands.

"Minnie, don't worry. I thought it was so cute," he tells you.
