Broken

Hey somebody calls somebody a slur⚠️⚠️⚠️

     I sighed, looking up at the stars.
     "You ok?" Ponyboy asked.
     "Oh... yeah. I'm just thinking..." I mumbled.
     "About what?" He asked me.
     I sighed again. "Just love... relationships and shit like that."
     "Oh cool. There's a lot of cute girls at school. I could hook you up with one of them I'm sure," he rambled on and on.
It's not girls I'm interested in! I wanted to scream at him. It's Dallas Winston!
     "And there's this one really cute girl, she's got real dark hair, green eyes, freckles-"
     I zoned back out again. I should tell Dal! I thought, then immediately disregarded it. There's no way he could ever love you.
     "Or there's this short little blonde girl with curly hair! And the brightest blue eyes you've ever seen!"
God this kid doesn't shut up.
     "Oh! And this amazing girl with red hair! I think her name is Bridgette or something weird like that? I don't know but she's in all of my honors classes-"
     I was done with his babbling. "I don't like girls!" I finally whisper yelled, thankful for the darkness so Ponyboy couldn't see how bright my cheeks were.
"What?" He spat, and I flinched back.
     "I said... I said I like boys ok?"
     "What the hell Johnny that's fucking disgusting!" He screeched, hopping up.
     I sat there, feeling tears streaming down my face.
     "Pony-"
     "Don't ever talk to me again you fucking fag!"
Wow, even your best friend doesn't accept you for who you are. Maybe you should just kill yourself like your parents told you, the voice in my head said.
     I started sobbing. What am I gonna do now?
     I'm not sure how long I laid there. It may have been minutes, it may have been hours, but I never stopped crying.
     Suddenly I heard footsteps, and jolted up into a sitting position.
     "Johnny?"
     I recognized the voice immediately. "D-Dal?" I said, half relieved, half petrified.
     "It's like three in the morning kid. What are you doing out here?" He asked me.
     "I-I Uhh..."
     He studied me better in the darkness as I continued to stutter, looking for words. "Hey, are you crying?" He asked me gently.
     "No." I said too quickly, and he cocked an eyebrow.
     "I know you're lying Johnny Cade," he said in a gravelly voice.
Damn he's hot. "Ok, fine. I was crying but now I'm not," I muttered, standing up and walking in the opposite direction.
     "Johnny, come on man, talk to me. What's wrong?"
     I chewed on my lip. I really wanted to tell him... but what if he reacted like Ponyboy? I couldn't lose him too. Before I knew it I was crying again, and Dally had wrapped his arms around me.
     "Hey hey hey, it's ok," he said, rubbing my back.
     I sniffled. "S-Sorry." I pulled out of the hug. "I'll see you around I guess." I turned and started walking away.
     He grabbed my shoulder, turning me back around to face him. I yelped in surprise.
     He looked down at me. "Please tell me what's wrong?" He tried again.
     I shook my head, feeling more tears leak out. "I don't want you to hate me too..." I murmured quietly.
     "Hate you? Who hates you?" He asked, shock filling his tone.
     I let out a small sob. "Ponyboy."
     "What? Why? I thought you guys were best friends," Dally said.
     I shrugged my shoulders. "A-apparently he doesn't want to be friends with a f-f-faggot..."
     "Did he call you that?" Dally asked, pissed.
     "Yeah... but I told him I liked boys..."
     "It shouldn't matter who you like, nobody should be allowed to use that word!"
     I had never seen him so angry, then I realized something. "W-Wait? You don't hate me?" I asked meekly.
     His eyes softened immediately. "Of course not, you're still my Johnny."
     I blushed deep at the nickname and giggled.
     "So if I said I liked boys too, you wouldn't hate me either right?" Dally quietly asked a few minutes later.
     I looked up at him, completely shocked. "Of-of course not!"
     "Good. Because I like boys..."
     "You know the first guy I ever had a crush on? And still  do?" I asked, looking down at my shoes.
     "Who?" Dally asked, and I glanced up and saw him grinning.
     I bit my lip again. "You..."
     "Called it," he muttered, before crushing his lips to mine.
     He kissed me roughly, wrapping his fingers in my hair. I moaned a little.
     He pulled away, smirking down at me. "I like you too," he said, shrugging his shoulders.
     I smiled at the ground and blushed. "Hey Dally?"
     "Yes dear?"
     "I think I love you," I blushed scarlet, I didn't even mean to say that.
     "I-I love you  too kid," he said to me, grabbing my hand in his.
     We started walking down the street, and Dally let go of my hand and put his arm around my shoulder. I was content, and I leaned my head against him.
     "Where are we going?" I finally asked.
     "A surprise," was the only answer.
     He took me to an old park with a fountain, and I looked at him, confused. We walked up a hill, and then dally spoke.
     "Sit," he said, motioning to the ground.
     I obeyed, and he sat down beside me. "What are we doing?" I whispered.
     "Watching the sunrise together," he whispered back.
     We sat there, and soon, pink and orange spread it's way across the sky, the sun in suit.
     It had been a while since I'd watched a sunrise; I was mesmerized.
     I felt eyes on me, the looked up at Dally, blushing.
     "Has anybody ever told you how cute you are?" He asked me.
     "You... just now," I said, and he chuckled a little bit.
     "Can I ask you something?"
     I nodded. "Sure." I suddenly felt very nervous, but I shook that feeling away.
     "Willyoubemyboyfriend?"
     "What?" I'd heard what he said, but I wanted to hear it again.
     "W-Will you be my boyfriend?" He asked again.
     I grinned. "Yes!" I was so happy, I went to hug him and we both toppled over into the wet grass. I was straddling him, and when I realized, I blushed and began to get off him.
     He grabbed my hips, not letting me go. "No," he whined. "Stay, please."
     I blushed, but I would die of embarrassment if someone caught us like this.
     "What's it gonna take to let me go?" I asked.
     He bit his lip, looking at mine. I sighed, then pressed my lips to his. This one was softer, and I smiled into it.
     He ran his tongue along my bottom lip and I shivered. I finally pulled away, gasping for breath.
     Dally released me, and I stood up, hoping he wouldn't notice the blush on my cheeks.
     "Hey, I love you," he said, and I smiled.
     "I love you too."

Just wanna say I don't think Ponyboy would actually react like that.
This is also my last chapter until I find something good to write about.
