How He Pranks You

Johnny: He'll pretend there's something crazy cool just as an excuse to kiss you in private. He'll run downstairs and say, "Y/N, you have to see this! Come upstairs," and you're like, "What??" And he says, "It's crazy, you're gonna want to look at this." So, you get out of your really comfortable position on the couch and follow Johnny up the stairs to your bedroom. He says, "Look! Look out the window!" Then, you go to look, and he'll just grab you around the middle and throw you over his shoulder, bridal style. He'll throw you on your bed and give you little kisses. You say, "Johnnyyyy. What was that for?" and he says, "I just wanted to kiss you," with a smile on his face.

Dally: He pretends he's in jail again. He'll simply call you on a payphone and say, "Listen, Y/N, I'm back in the cooler. I need you to bail me out." And you say, "Dally, seriously? Again?? What in the world did you do this time?" And he says, "It doesn't matter. Just please come, and pay the money." And you say "ok" and start to hang up, then he says, "GOTCHA! I'm not actually in jail. Well... not yet." You say, "Dally!!"

Pony: He randomly stops holding hands with you or stops cuddling with you to see your reaction. For example, you two will just be cuddling, wrapped up in each other, and then suddenly, he just moves away from you. You say, "Babyyy." He says, "What?" You pout, "Why'd you move away from me?" "Uhh-" he starts to say, but then he can't take it any longer. He pulls you into a hug once again and says, "I'm sorryyyy, I was just trying to see your reaction. I love you." "I love you, too," you tell him.

Soda: He'll say something about his ex, like he'll pretend she visited or that he still loves him. He'll sit you on the bed and say, "I have something really important to tell you." And you say, "What is it?" And he says, "I- I still have feelings for my ex. Sandy." And then when you start to get sad or mad, he jumps on top of you and says, "No, no, no, I was only joking, baby. I'm sorry, I'm an idiot. I only love you." And you say, "You better."

Darry: He'll pretend you died. He'll make the entire gang sit on the couch while he stands in front of them. Then, he says, "Something very awful and shocking has occurred. Today, I- I lost my future wife..." And then everyone's like, "Wait, Y/N died?" And Darry says, "Yes. Y/N passed away this morning-" That's when you come downstairs and say, "Darry, come on. I'm not dead." You turn to the gang. "Guys, don't believe him-" "SHE'S RISEN!" Two-Bit yells. "No, no, I never died. He's making it up," you say. "She's alive!!!" Darry screams, and laughs.

Steve: He'll just be driving along the road and then gets a brilliant idea to prank you. He'll call you and say, "Y/N, the police are following me because I drove through a red light. They stopped me, and I said I only drove through the light because I needed to get home to my pregnant girlfriend. They let me go, but they're following me home to check if you're actually pregnant. So, can you just pretend to be pregnant or something?" You say, "Omg, Steve, why in the world did you say that?!" He says, "I didn't want to get a ticket. Just- please do it? For me?" "Fineee," you say. When he opens the door, he finds you have stuffed sheets under your shirt and you're pretending to be in pain. When you notice he's laughing his face off, you stop groaning and say, "What- where's the police??" "There are none," he gasps, still laughing. You roll your eyes and smack him with a pillow.

Two-Bit: He'll pretend something awful happened, but really, it's just a dumb thing. He'll say, "Y/N. Y/N, something terrible has happened." And you say, "What?? Is everyone ok?" And he says, "Yeah. I just can't believe this- after everything. I'm so sad." And you say, "What happened???" And he says, "Out of everything that could have happened... THIS. I'm just in shock." And you say, "Two-Bit. What. Happened?!" And he takes a deep breath and says, "All the chocolate cake is gone," with a huge smile.
