Outsiders Imagines

Sodapop Curtis

Is been best friends with Sodapop since grade school, a little after 3rd grade. I have the biggest crush on him. God if only he knew.

"Hey (y/n) snap out of it" Steve says waving his hand in front of my face
"Stop it you bum" I smack his hand away looking at him.

Steve smirks at me and leans against the counter. We both worked at the DX. I didnt work on cars or anything like he did. I was just the cashier.

"Thinking about Sodapop again?" Steve says loudly, still smirking at me
"Hey keep it down" I say quickly, luckily Soda was working on a car outside so he didnt hear him.
"You know you're gonna have to tell him one day (y/n)" Steve says hopping up on the counter.
"No I don't." I shake my head and put a magazine back on its stand.

I knew he was right though. I couldn't possibly keep it a secret much longer. Worse case scenario is he wont like me back... God I don't want to think about that. So I'm just playing it safe and not telling him.

Steve shakes his head "hmm well maybe you should." He says grabbing the magazine "you might not regret it if you do" he smirks and sets it down right back on the counter before walking back out to help Sodapop with the car.

What? Yeah I would regret it. There's no possible way he'd like me. I'm not pretty and flirtatious like those other girls. He doesn't go for girls like me. I sigh and take a drink of my coffee I had in a travel mug.

The rest of the day went on like a drag. The sun started to set by the time it was quitting time. All three of us started walking home.

"Hey you guys I'm just gonna head over to my house. I'm not feeling to good" I say rubbing my arms a little.
Soda looks down at me frowning a little "what feels wrong?"
"Um... I'm nauseous" I lie and he nods "I'll walk you home ok? I don't want you getting jumped" He insists and glances at Steve "I'll see you at my house"

Steve smirks at us both and they do their little handshake before walking off. That handshake was so cute.

"You seemed really down today (y/n)" Sodapop says softly as we walked down the road towards my house
"I'm just feeling under the weather is all" I say shrugging.
Soda softly presses the back of his hand to my forehead making my face heat up and turn red
"You do feel a little warm" he says then smiles "on the bright side you'll get the day off tomorrow if you are sick"
I smile a little up at him.

I love how he can be so optimistic in every situation. He was just too pure for this town and the shitty people who lived here.

"I guess you're right" I say as we reach my house, my parents cars were gone. Probably both out getting drunk and wastin our money on booze.

As I began walking up the steps to the front door Soda grabs my hand "hey- (y/n)"
I slowly look at him feeling electricity run through my arm
"Yeah Sodapop?" I ask softly looking up at him.
"Y'know. I um. I've liked you for a while now. And Steve may or may not have told me how you felt about me"

Fucking Steve. My face starts heating up again and Sodapop smiles at me

"Of course Steve told you" I laugh a little nervously "can't tell him nothing"
Soda looks down at our hands
"Is it true? Do you like me?"

I softly squeezed his hand "yeah its true. I've liked you since third grade"
Sodapop gives me that smile and his beautiful brown eyes were alive with happiness
"Will you be my girl?" Sodapop asks me softly
"I'll be your girl" I smile up at him and get on my tippy toes to plant a soft kiss on his perfect lips.

I guess I'll have to thank Steve for this later....
