Ponyboy
(You both were 14)
(You're Middle Class)
It was a hot summer day in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Like seriously, it was almost 100 degrees, and the humidity was insane.
You were outside in a tank top and shorts, and your seven year-old sister, Daisy, was spraying you with the hose as you both were giggling like crazy. Your parents had let you guys mess with the hose because of the heat, and the fact that you both were bored. After a few minutes of her laughing at the fact that you were literally drenched to the bone, (which she somehow found funny, cmon she's a little kid) you noticed people, or more like a very sweaty (like they were drenched) group of guys staring at you both. "Hey, do y'all wanna get sprayed too? Not tryna sound sarcastic, y'all look really overheated!" You yelled to them. The tan one with black hair yelled back, "Yeah, thanks!"
The guys ran over, and one of them particularly caught your eye.
He had reddish-brownish greased hair, and greenish-grayish, dreamy eyes. You realized you were staring and looked away, turning red.
"Hey, nice to meet you...." the dreamy guy said.
"Y/N L/N, but you can call me N/N." You said, smiling as he shook your hand.
"And y'all are..."
"Well I'm Ponyboy Curtis, these are my brothers Darry and Sodapop but you can call him Soda, and this is Johnny, Dallas, Steve, and Keith, but he goes by Two-Bit 'cause he's always gotta get his two bits in."
You smiled and waved at everyone as they smiled at you.
Suddenly, you felt a little nudge on your leg.
"Spray the sweaty guys, N/N!" Daisy yelled, throwing the hose in your hands and running inside.
"Well you guys heard her..."
And you sprayed the group with the hose.
Darry, Soda, Two-Bit and Dallas (who had told you to call him Dally) screeched like little girls, while Johnny and Steve appreciated the cold water. However, Ponyboy mumbled "Oh cmon man!" As he tried to duck from the water.
Everyone eventually enjoyed the cold water.
After about an hour of doing whatever, you guys all sat down in a circle out front, and were getting to know each other. You had Pony to your left and Darry to your right.
You guys had dried off, as your parents got everyone towels, and your mom had brought out sandwiches and lemonade for everyone. Daisy had gone over her friend's house and your parents had now gone out for a bit. It was around 1PM now, and you guys were playing Never Have I Ever.
You were next, and since it was the start of the game, only a couple people had 1/10 fingers down.
"Hmm, never have I ever....... had a legit crush on someone, like thinking about seriously dating them." You spoke.
Everyone (except you, obviously) put a finger down.
"Woah, okay... anyways, Pony, you're next!"
Pony started thinking of a question, as you went around to the side of the house where the hose was.
You decided to play a little prank on Ponyboy.
Grabbing a (clean) bucket, you slowly yet silently filled it, and tiptoed in the grass, and behind Pony.
"Shh..." You inaudibly motioned to the group, putting your finger over your mouth.
Two-Bit chuckled, Steve almost burst out in laughter, and everyone else was quietly giggling, but not drawing attention to you.
"What's so funny y'all? Wait, where did N/N go?" Pony asked, searching for you.
As if on cue, you dumped the water on him, and the guys (and you) started laughing their asses off, especially Steve.
"Oh that's it L/N" Pony yelled, and he started chasing you around the yard.
You screeched and yelled;
"Can't catch me, Curtis!"
It was like running from a cheetah, like it was crazy.
Well I guess someone does track...
You leaped over your backyard fence, with Pony hot on your tail, and you bolted to the other side of the yard to jump the other side of the fence.
Just as you started climbing the fence, you heard:
"Oh I don't think so sweetheart"
Pony pulled you back, and as you were laughing and trying to run from him, he tackled you to the ground.
You both started laughing endlessly, and realized the guys had seen the whole thing play out, which made you laugh even harder.
Y'all spent the rest of the day laughing about it and playing games.
You later found out that Pony lived down the street from you, so that's a plus.
