The Outsiders Preferences

|First 'I Love You'|

Ponyboy- You were sitting in the park, not to far from your own home. You sat on a swing set along with Ponyboy. You notice his swing stop moving and he stands up from his seat. You creased your brows in confusion,
"Pony?" You call out. He turns around with a grin on his face, which shocks you.
"Y/N, I'm so glad that we can do things like this. I doubt any other girl would do this with me." He says; his grin growing wider. You make a shocked noise and stare at him in awe. "That's why I love you Y/N." He states with pure seriousness.

Johnny- You and Johnny always met up at different locations almost everyday. It was very calming and you would always end the night with looking up at the stars while laying on the ground with each other.
Today, Johnny decided to take you to the lot, since you haven't been there in quite awhile. You laid on the ground, which you were covered with a blanket.
"Hey, Y/N?" He called for you. You turn your head to look at him and see him staring up at the pitch black sky.
"Yeah, Johnny?"
"You know- You know I love you, right?" He asks, as you watch a smile grow on his face.
"'Course I do." You reply.

Sodapop- Soda had been non-stop complimenting you all day, but it seemed kind of odd. Finally, you decided to ask him what's up,
"Soda-" You cut him off as you knew that he was going to go on a rally of compliments once more, "Is there something wrong? Like, you think there's something you need to make up for?" You ask with nothing but seriousness. He looks down at his dark blue jeans and shakes his head,
"No," He sighs, "I just... couldn't work up the courage to say I love you." He states. You smile sympathetically,
"I love you too Soda." Your smile grows as you place a gentle kiss on his cheek.

Dally- Dally had decided it's about time you finally go and see your first rodeo. Not only will this be your first rodeo, but Dally'll be participating in it. It always fascinated you- the fact that horse riding was even a part of his reckless life.
"Ready Dal?" You ask as you look up at the Greaser readying himself on his horse. He nods his head with a sly smirk, as if he knows he'll make it first.
"Ready as I'll ever be, babe." He answers. A man at the other end of you and Dally begins talking, but you and Dallas are so fixed on each other that you hardly notice the man. "Bet on me, I'll win for you, babe, 'cause I love you." He speaks with absolute seriousness in his voice. You smile at the simple three words,
"Love you too Dal, now knock 'em dead, cowboy."

Darry- Darry had just gotten back from work and walked into his house to see you already sitting there.
"Welcome back." You say happily, but see a worn out and defeated look on Darry's face. "Woah, you okay? You look like a truck's just roughened you up." You state.
He sighs quietly and flops onto the couch, "Yeah, I'm fine, jus' tired." He says truthfully and closes his heavy eyelids.
You stand up and walk over to him, placing you two hands onto his back. You begin rubbing the muscles in his aching back soothingly, just the way Soda taught you to.
"Feel better?" You ask.
"Of course it does. Anything feels better when you do somethin' for me. That's why I love you Y/N." He says suddenly. You continue to rub his muscles as a smirk plays its way onto your lips.
"Love you too Darry." You say and bend down to kiss behind his ear.

Steve- Steve shows up at your work anytime he has free time during his work days. You work as a bartender on a nearby street and work there for most of your time.
One day, he comes in looking as roughed up as you've ever seen him. He had cuts and bruises forming on his body, and a small patch of blood running from his arm.
"Golly Steve, what happened?" You ask worriedly as he approaches the bar.
"Nothin' honey. Just ran into some trouble on my way here is all." He says.
"That's all? Steve, you look like you've been through the shredder. Come 'ere." You hold out your arms and he walks into them.
"Don't scare me like that. I never want to see you come straight after getting jumped. Next time, go clean yourself up first," You say jokingly, "You gave me quite a scare, but you still came in for me Steve.... I love you to pieces."
He smiles warmly and melts into your touch. "Love ya too, darling."

Two-bit- Two-bit always stumbles home drunk, but it's not like his mother really cares all that much. He once decided that it'd be better to intrude your house on a Saturday night.
"Hey Y/N." You hear a voice call from your window. You sit up from your bed and dust yourself off, going to the window and looking down. You see none other than Two-bit standing on your lawn.
"Two-bit, why are you here. My folks'll kill me if they know you're here." You whisper-shout.
"Come on, just hop down." He says with a sly smile on his face. You roll your eyes at his behavior and lean further out the window.
"Not a chance, Romeo." You joke. At this point, you're so close you might as well be on the ground. He still looks up and you and cocks an eyebrow.
"What'll it take?" He asks.
"Say the words I'm thinking and I'll come." You say, thinking it'll be a miracle if the wisecracker, Two-bit Mathews could guess the three words in your head.
"I love ya." His voice was hushed. Your eyes widen, there's no way.
"Love ya too, Keith. Now get in here." You say and reach out an arm to grab him with.
'Wow.' You think to yourself.

That was the longest but most fun preference I've ever written so far. Thank you to Your_New_Best_Friend for requesting this and I hope you like it! I hope everyone enjoys and I'm sorry for the lack of updates.
