Johnny's POV
Love hasn't been easy for me this year, it's been worse than the last.

I stood flat there on the ground, with a cancer stick in between my fingers. My mood was terrible, I felt so empty. I felt underestimated and left out.

I threw the cigarette out of anger.

I thought no one cared about me anymore. It gave me more pain than anything I've ever been through in my life.

Why cant it just go away? Why does it always have to hurt this bad? I may never know, but what I do know is that something hit me last summer.

I really can't go too in depth with that something because it's been confusing me forever. I also can't explain that well when it comes to these things, especially since it came to me at this certain age in my life.

I might as well understand that some things are just supposed to be a certain way.

Ponyboy's POV
My mind's been up to something all night, I have no idea what it was doing. But it felt strange, I felt something tell me to leave my house. I quietly got out of bed, with Soda sleeping.

It was a feeling I had for Johnny, oddly. I thought we were just best friends, but I feel like there's more to it than just friends.

I threw on a white shirt and pants, hastily making my way out of the living room and running outside. I saw Johnny sitting there on the curb and I walked up to him.

"H-hi Johnny." he looked unhappy.

"Hey Pone, what brings ya here at this hour?" I feel nervous about asking him.

"J-johnny," I saw the look in his eyes and they told me he was going through a lot right now. "Tell me, what's wrong?" I could see his eyes turn glassy and very sparkly.

"Johnny? You okay?" I put a hand on his shoulder and pulled him close to me. He gave me a hug and buried his head into my shoulder, almost nuzzling.

"Oh Pony, it's just that-" he sniffled. "I-I have feelings... and these feelings can't be solved until I figure out what they mean. They hurt because they... they make me confused and... they make me want to cry and be in your arms."

I blushed.

"M-my arms?"

"Y-yea." His sobs loudened.

"Shh Johnny it's okay, I will help you get through this, we'll make it together." I rub his back softly.

"I love you Ponyboy."

I blushed harder. "I-I love you too Johnnycake."

He pulled away from the hug to look in my eyes.

"I-in that way?"

I nodded.

"Even though we're just friends?"

I nodded again.

"Still?"

I came closer to him. "Oh Johnny," I leaned in and pecked his lips, I suddenly felt him start to kiss back.

Our lips collided, I felt a nice feeling, like a gush of something strong. My hand moved up to his cheek, lightly stroking him.

The movement of our kiss stopped when we had to reach for air. I backed away to breathe again as so did Johnny. I slightly panted and realized that I did love Johnny after all.

"My feelings... they can't hurt me no more."

Nice, short one, ey?
