The Outsiders Imagines

Ponyboy (Christmas)

You and Ponyboy had been best friends since kindergarten. You two are inseparable. If he isn't with Johnny, he's with you. You study together, you go to the movies together, you eat lunch together, you're even in most of the same classes. You two are always inviting each other to your houses. Whether it's for a holiday, to study, or to hang out. So it wasn't a surprise that he had invited you over for Christmas.

Even though you spend a lot of time with him, you have been nervous around him. Whenever he's around you get butterflies in your stomach. And when he smiles it makes your day. You can't help but smile when you see him, and when you walk away your still smiling because he hasn't left your mind. When he talks you hang on to every word he says. You get lost in his greenish-grey eyes.

You haven't always felt this way. It started just a couple years ago. You've always thought of Pony as a brother until one day he came over to your place because he had been jumped. As you were bandaging him you looked at his face. You were checking to see if he had any cuts or bruises you didn't notice before when you locked eyes with him. You looked away quickly. You knew you would start crying if you looked at him like that. You could see the pain in his eyes and it was hurting you too. Once you were done you told him to go lay down for a while. While he was in your bed sleeping, you were in the living room crying.

Ever since then you felt different about Ponyboy. You couldn't help feeling the way you did. And you couldn't help but feel nervous as you walked up the steps of his porch. You were about to walk inside but someone opened the door. That someone was Ponyboy. He had a huge smile on his face.

"Hey, (Y/N), come on inside. I don't want you freezing out there."

You smiled and walked inside. "How's your break been? I haven't seen you since school got out," You asked.

"Good. We've been decorating the house for Christmas. I wish you could have came over to help, though. I know you love Christmas decorating."

"Yeah. I got to decorate at home so it's fine. I'm glad you've had fun. My breaks been nice. Kinda boring without you to hang with."

Pony smiled. You talked about what you did over break and what you will be doing. You talked and talked and talked until Soda interrupted you. "(Y/N), what's that?" He pointed to the bag in your hands.

"Oh, that's a present that I got for Pony. I forgot about it when we started talking."

Soda chuckled. "That's like you two. When you two are alone it's like you forget everything that's around you."

That's true. You two can spend hours just talking. You do it when you work on homework. You come over to study and to get your work done but end up talking for over half the time and get nothing accomplished. You do that at school sometimes when you get to pick partners.

"Oh, I got something for you too. Come here." Pony grabbed your hand and dragged you into is room. You sat down on his bed, waiting as he grabbed the present from his closet. Once he found it he sat down on the bed and you exchanged presents.

You opened yours. It was a hoodie and a book. You smiled. "Aww, thank you, Ponyboy."

He smiled and opened his. He pulled out a book and two movie tickets. You knew Pony had been dying to see that movie and you decided to buy the two of you tickets. Well, that is if he wanted to take you.

"How'd you know I wanted to see this?"

"Oh, I don't know. You talk about wanting to see it, like, every day."

Two-Bit came to the door, knocked, then opened it. "Come on, you two, dinners ready."

You and Pony walked to the kitchen. You stood at the doorway taking in the smile. You could hear the guys snickering. "What?" You asked.

"Look at what you two are standing under."

You both looked up and seen a mistletoe. Pony looked at you. "Uh, do you wanna—I don't think we can get out of this."

"Y-yeah," You stuttered. Pony leaned in a placed a soft kiss on your lips. Of course, you kissed back, considering that you liked Pony. Sadly, the kiss only lasted for about 5 seconds.

When you pulled away you both were smiling. All the gang was cheering and doing things that made you both blush. After that you sat down and ate. You could see Pony look at you ever once in a while with a smile on his face. You'd smile back. You couldn't believe that you had gotten your first kiss with Ponyboy Curtis.
