Ponyboy's POV

I walked with my friend Devin. He's a chill guy. Maybe if he made an effort to his clothes he would look better. Same with me though. I didn't really care how I dressed though or looked. Plus, I have a boyfriend now. An amazing boyfriend. I couldn't imagine Dally ever turning on me. If he did I'm not sure what I'll do. Probably restart my life and get away from here?

No one knows that Dally and I are together. Only each other. So it's our secret. People would totally make fun of us for it. They wouldn't just make fun of us either, I know people gets beaten for it. I don't wanna end up in the hospital.. I don't want to see Dally in there either.

Oh! It's almost Valentine's Day. I need to do something for Dally. Yikes, I'm bad with ideas. I'm not that creative. I still gotta think though. Since I'm the best person in the world to anyone. There's totally no reason to hate me. Maybe I'm a little selfish but I can work things out.

"So about Dally..." Devin starts and I quickly look at him. Ready to hear either a bad thing or good thing slip out of his mouth about Dal. "I've heard a rumor that he actually likes guys. I think you need to watch out." I almost choke on my spit and I squealed. "Where did you get that information from?" I asked.

"I just heard it around. But since I knew you and Dallas were close and like best friends or something, I thought you would want to hear that or he might do something bad to you."

I shook my head. "Those are just rumors dude. It doesn't mean it's true right?" I said nervously, letting out a little chuckle. "I mean, even if he was gay, I don't think I would hate him for it. But please don't spread this rumor anymore it's fake. He doesn't deserve this type of bullshit and if you keep spreading this rumor we're not friends." I told him, taking a sip from my root beer.

"Um okay. Also, Joel's spreading all the rumors. Aren't you guys friends or something." Devin adds. I shrug. "I'm not sure, now that I know he's the one with the rumors. It makes me feel like I'm being watched right now!" I kinda looked around us.

"I'll talk to you later Pony. I'm hungry!" I watch Devin run away.
I crushed my can and dropped it on the ground.

When I heard the bell ring for class I quickly got another root beer first.

I walked into the building. I went to get my stuff from my locker. Since I had English I grabbed my notebooks and my binder full of English stuff. Of course, my pencil.

I walked into my class where I was early. I was the only person in the classroom with the teacher. The classrooms were smaller. It's like this school is big but not really big. I don't even know if that makes any sense but it's like that. I sat there patiently waiting for the bell to ring again. I started fidgeting with my pencil and also pretended it was like a skateboard. It wasn't a good skateboard but I was bored, I didn't know what to do.

_______________________________

Class was finally over. It was weird. The topics were everywhere and we couldn't stick to one any longer than 1 minute. I wanted to escape class because of that but at least I wasn't tortured to write all the time like at my other school. This school is less strict about school work and stuff. This school is strict about the most unnecessary things.

When I walked out of class, Dally was waiting for me, leaning on the lockers. I smiled at him and walked up to him.
"Hey cutie. How was English class?" He asks me. I put my hands in my pockets and sighed.

"It gave me a little headache. I hate when topics changes a lot. I get headaches." I laugh awkwardly as I feel sharps of pain in my head.
"You'll feel better soon. Once we get into the dorms and I hold you." He says.

"Aw.. How about you, Dally? How was English for you?" I ask.

He scoffs. "It was fine. Just very boring. Ms.Taylor is fucking boring!" He tells me and I laughed.

We started walking out the building and got outside. "What should we do?" I ask. "The dorms." He says while taking my hand and dragging me towards the building. When we made it he brought me to my bed and just held me like he said.

"So how was your day so far." He asks me. "Oh wait I have to tell you something." I said and faced him. He hums. "Hm?"

"You know my friend Devin right?" I asked. He nods. "Well, he said that there were rumors about you liking guys. Joel was the one who came up with it but do you think he's watching us? Do you think he's watching us right now?" I became paranoid. I mean most likely he's stalking us or something. I knew he's a weirdo.

"Chill. Look, I'll just tell everyone, when it's lunch time, that he's full of bullshit and move on. If they don't believe me, I have some ideas." Dally tells me. "Like what?"

"Umm shush. I'll come up with ideas." He says.
