Sodapop Curtis

//request: can you do an imagine where you and soda get into a fight with some Socs and he ends up in the hospital so you admit your feelings bc you're scared and worried? oh and he feels the same. thank you so much!!//

you skipped down the street, going to meet Soda at the lot. he was facing opposite of you so you ran and jumped on his back. he laughed and held you up.

"hey Y/N " he chuckled.

"let's go." you smiled and jumped off.

as you were walking, you struck conversation.

"how's pony and superman?" you asked.

"getting along way better. glory, I never thought they'd find the same page." he shook his head with a slight smile. there was hardly ever a time when Sodapop Curtis wasn't smiling, and that's why yous started to fall in love with him.

"I heard Darry saying that the next state visit is coming up.."

"yeah, in a couple of-" he was cut off by the honk of a Mustang and the word "GREASERS!"

when you looked at soda you saw his expression was calm, but you'd have to know him to see the slight panic in his eyes.

the Mustang stopped and three boys and two girls jumped out. fuck. fuck. fuck!

"Soda.." you whispered, panic growing in your voice.

"were gonna be fine. just follow my lead." he replied quietly.

you looked at the socs, putting on the tuffest expression you could muster. you knew you didn't look at calm as Soda but it would do.

"see? I told you that oil slick would lead to something!" one of the boys laughed.

"this ain't your turf. I suggest you and your pals get a move on." Soda said.

"well you see, we were thinking of doing some... community service. starting with putting you hoods in check." one of the girls said.

"in check? glory, you must be off your rocker if you think you got anything on us." you commented and leaned on Soda, hearing a chuckle from him.

the girl fumed and glared at you. she motioned to her friend and they stood one in front and one behind you. the boys circled soda the same way.

as if in sync, all of them rushed you and Soda at once. the girls put up a decent fight, but you kept them away. you busted both of their bottom lips open, cracked one of their ribs, and gave one of them a black eye.

they tackled you to the floor and while one kicked you, the other slugged you. you were able to throw one into the other, knocking them both down. they grabbed the boys and ran off to their mustang.

you stood up shakily, your ribs sore and your head bleeding but other than that you were fine. after a few seconds, something clicked in your head. Soda.

you ran over to him - he was a few feet away - only to find him unconscious. he had a gash on his forehead. his lip was busted and his eye was swelling.

"Darry!" you yelled, knowing he could hear. "it's Soda!"

that was enough to get Darry and Pony there within a minute. Darry had Pony call the ambulance and they showed up pretty quick for the East side.

you paced the waiting room, waiting for the doctor to let you see him.

"golly Y/N, you're really worried about him ain't you?" Ponyboy asked, standing in front of you.

"well yeah... I've never seen Soda like that, unconscious." you said, looking down the hall and biting your nails. "glory, you should've seen him. he took on three of them and he put up on hell of a fight. from the glimpses I caught, he was holding his own real well."

"yeah that's my brother all right." he said, motioning down the hall. Darry came back and wrapped an arm around Ponys shoulders.

"you can go see him now Y/N." Darry said. "room 13."

you nodded and jogged to his room. you opened the door, seeing him shirtless with his sides wrapped and his head bandaged. the swelling of his eye went down and his lip healing. he was still out cold though.

"glory Soda." you whispered and sat next to him. "look at everything... all the bruises you got... you know, you scared me something fierce. never seen you down like that..."

you wiped your eyes and took his hand. "Sodapop, I don't know if I'll ever get this chance again. and I guess after today, everything got put into perspective for me... i.. I love you, Soda. I love you and I want to be with you. you mean so much to me and you always protect me, even if I don't need it or want it. you just, golly you dig okay."

"I love you too Y/N."he said, his voice a little hoarse. "I wanna be with you. can I take you out tomorrow night?" he smiled and winked.

you laughed a little. "if you can get out of this hospital, you can take me anywhere you want." you said with a nod, holding a smile.
