A/N: sorry I didn't post 2 or 3 days b/c i was busy all weekend! 

You had met Ponyboy when you were showing the new freshmen of your school around, you were a senior so knew the school very well. You spotted Ponyboy in the crowd of freshmen, something drew you to him, and to this day you're not sure what it was. He was so shy, you found it adorable. Yes, everyone was shy for the most part but he was more so than most of the others.

Every time you made eye contact with him he would blush and you'd smile sweetly at him but it would make him blush even more. He looked and seemed pretty mature for his age, he looked cute too.

When the tour was over and you answered questions, one of them being 'Can I get your phone number'. You laughed along with everyone else and didn't tell them. Pony had watched intently to see your reaction. At the time you thought nothing of it but now you knew he wanted to know if you'd date a freshman.

You told them that if they ever needed anything they could find you and ask. Or that if they saw you in the hall they could ask you questions regarding school. That was how Ponyboy first talked to you.

You were getting books out of your locker and he came up, he was quiet so you didn't notice he was there until you slammed your locker door shut. He was on the other side of it and you screamed when you saw him, not expecting anyone there. You laughed at your goofiness.

"Don't scare me like that." You smile now, done laughing at yourself.

All he did was blush and you smirked at his innocence.

"Do you need something or perhaps have a question?" You ask.

He was still blushing and staring at you, it took a moment for him to respond.

"Uh, yeah. Um, I... Can you show me where room 202 is?"

Room 202 was Mrs. Pul's room, she taught science and math. You had her your freshmen year for science, she wasn't strict at all and made the work way too simple. He would pass the class easily.

"Yep, she taught me science. What will she teach you?" You say as you start heading there.

Pony quickly trailed after you. You would find out later that he was going to ask you out but got to nervous but he honestly didn't know where the room was anyway. Two-bit told him where your locker was, Two had seen you around and his locker was close by so that's how he knew.

"Science, same as you had." Pony then only has a light blush on his face and it was disappearing pretty quickly as you two talked.

"What's your name?" You question.

"Ponyboy, some people call me 'Pony'. Yours is Y/n right?"

"Yep, that's my name."

You talked along the way. Talking about family, friends and school. He thanked you multiple times for showing him where to go and you giggled and told him that if he needed help finding anything else he should ask you. You told him that you'd probably either be at your locker, the school library or at the front entrance of the school.

At that point you didn't know if he would talk to you again, you were surprised he even managed to begin with.

The very next day he found you at the library, not because he was looking for you but because he was checking out a few books. It caused you to be more interested in him when you found out he liked to read.

You got up from your table just as he was finishing checking out his books, you stop him before he leaves. You had asked him if he'd like to sit with you and talk for a while, it was lunch and your friends were all busy. He agreed and sat down at your table with you.
