The Outsiders (Private Imagines)

Sodapop- ShannonHearty

I got out of my dads pickup truck “Mmm Yeah!” I heard someone call from behind. I swung around and saw a guy no older than 17 leaning against a red Corvette. He ran his eyes up and down me and smirked. He wore an unbuttoned DX shirt. I continued to wash the windscreen of my car studying him closely as he did the same to me. He was tall and lean and combed his hair into complicated swirls “Car man, c’mon” He yelled behind him “Comin’ Comin” Someone yelled from inside the shop.

The door from the shop opened and a boy about the same age walked out and headed my way. He started filling up my car. I leaned against the boot next to him “You’ll have to ignore him” He laughed and studied me also. He was movie star handsome with silky greased hair and reckless brown eyes. His goofy smile alone was enough to make me blush.

“Names Shannon” I offered him my hand and he shook it gently “Sodapop Curtis” 

“So, Sodapop, I don’t think I've seen you around school before” I asked

“I dropped out” He looked down at the ground and finished with the car.

“Wish I could drop out” I said and his head rebounded back up “No, don’t! School is better than you think. You’d miss it when it’s gone” He said.

I got into my car and handed him the money for the gas. “Will I see you around Shannon?” His eyes pleaded and I definitely wanted to get to know him better “Don’t know. Here’s my number. Give me a call and find out” I handed him a small piece of paper with my name on it. He folded it in his pocket. I pushed my blonde hair behind my ear and he glared into my dark blue eyes. He leant down and kissed my cheek softly. Then again but this time on the lips. I winked at him as he walked away and he shot me that goofy grin that makes me melt inside. I drifted out of the DX and I could feel his eyes watch me as I left.
