❛ his fiancé didn't want to invite you, y/n. ❜
ponyboy says in disappointment. i rubbed my lips when i felt the whole gang stare at me.
we were discussing johnny's wedding without johnny, he was getting married to steve's sister, rachel. i liked rachel a lot but she didn't like me from the day we met 10 years ago, we were both 14.
i was 14, dating johnny at the time. johnny's as 15 but he was turning 16 the month after we started dating. johnny and i dated for a good 4 years before i left for stanford university on a full ride from basketball.
we decided it'd be best to breakup but leave it on good terms, i was never a big fan of long distance relationship since i'd only see johnny twice the days i'm home.
"rachel doesn't want me there, doesn't she?" i asked.
"y/n don't take it to heart, it;s probably because you guys don't talk." steve shrugged.
"steve, her and dally never talked once and he's still invited." i complained.
"it's because i'm better than you." dally scoffed.
i got up from the couch and grabbed my coat with me, "have fun at the wedding, tell me all about, show me the pictures, and le-"
just as i was about to finish, i see johnny and rachel standing by the door all puzzled.
"hey johnny, rachel." i awkwardly greeted, "see y'all around."
i felt so overwhelmed when i walked out...
