That Nerd?/ Ponyboy x Reader

Chap. 8

We didn't speak much.

The next night approached and Pony wrote a note and put it on the coffee table.

I didn't bother to read it.

The second we got to Bucks girls were on him, and he didn't seem to like it but I made my way to Curly anyways.

I smiled and sat next to him at her bar.

"Hey doll baby." He smirked and he kissed my cheek. He smelled of alcohol.

"How much have you drank?" I asked as I pushed his face back, the alcohol hitting me strong.

"Not much." He slurred. I sighed and jumped off the stool and stomped across the room.

"Oh, baby! Come on." He said as I walked near the steps.

I stoped at the bottom.

I could see Pony out of the corner of my eye. Was he... drinking ?

"If getting into your pants is what you want you can get lost." I sniggered coldly.

"No! I mean... no. You're a cool chick." Curly said softly as he placed his hands on my hips.

I saw Pony glance at us then take a swig of beer.

"Yeah... um... Curly... I'll call you." I said as I pushed past him to Pony.

I snatched the beer from his hands and grabbed him by the collar, pulling him outside.

"What the hell are you doing?" I asked.

"Drinking, duh." He scoffed.

"This isn't you." I said quickly with a shake of my head.

"Yeah it is." He tried to sound bold but he sounded like mouse.

He pushed past me right back inside.

This wasn't him. What was happening?

I scoffed and ran back inside, looking around for him.

He was in the corner with some broad on him, giggling. I felt my heart tug. Why did I feel like this?

I looked around for Curly and spotted him back at the bar.

My main goal was to piss Pony off. I was so hurt.

I grabbed Curlys collar and pulled him upstairs.

"What're you doing?" He asked as I shut the door to one of the rooms but I attached my lips to his.

He moaned against the kiss and I felt his hand snake up my shirt.

The door flew open and we jumped back.

"Hey Y/n- what the fuck is Curly doing with you?" Dally snapped. I went to open my mouth to reply but Dally had dragged him out by his collar.

"Stay away, hood." He growled and Curly stumbled downstairs, not picking a fight with Dally.

"Jealous much?" I snapped.

"Y/n. Stop. It's not me. You're hurting yourself." He sighed.

"Wow, suddenly Dally cares." I smiled.

"This isn't funny. You need to get Pony home. He's tipsy." Dally said.

I sighed and ran downstairs.

He was still in the corner but now he was swaying a bit.

I pulled a girl back.

"Get lost." I snapped.

"Pony, we need to get home." I said.

"No. Someone needs to get their broad!" Pony laughed loudly. I felt tears stinging my eyes. This wasn't Pony and I knew he wasnt drunk enough to act weird.

"Pony, please." I mumbled.

"I'm staying." He rolled his eyes.

I went to reply but someone grabbed him and picked him up by the back of the shirt.

I turned to see Dally dragging him outside.

"Like hell you are." Dally snapped as he tossed Pony into Bucks car.

I climbed in and Dally sped off.

"You have any idea what Darry would do if he found out I let his baby brother at a party?" Dally snapped. Pony just sunk deeper into his seat.

"And you!" Dally said as he turned to me.

"What did I do?" I snapped.

"Curly isn't a good kid." Dally growled.

"No duh. I like them bad." I chuckled.

"This isn't a joke. If I catch his hands on you again im going to cut them off." Dally snapped. Pony suddenly sat up.

"He touched you?!" Pony exclaimed.

"What does it matter to you?!" I snapped.

"Because-"

"Shut the fuck up! Both of you. Like a God Damn married couple." Dally snapped.

We drove in silence the rest of the way.

Dally parked the car and my heart dropped when I saw the light on inside.

I hopped out and Pony sighed before opening the door.
