A/N: thank you so much for 1.64k followers!! 💞

There was nothing quite as enjoyable for Y/N then a Summer night in with her gang. Two-Bit would always be cracking stupid jokes, Dally would usually be causing some sort of trouble, and when Darry wasn't too tired, he was always there to try to keep everyone under control. Ponyboy and Johnny were like the little brothers Y/N never had, and Steve and Soda were her best friends.

Being the only girl in the gang, it was inevitable that most of the guys would take every opportunity to flirt with her. Y/N was pretty, that was something everyone around her could see from the moment they laid eyes on her. Despite her being a greaser, the Soc boys still hit on her at school, whistled at her when she walked by, but she just ignored it. Even the Soc girls respected her to some degree, occasionally stopping her in the halls to compliment her skirt, or partnering up with her on assignments when they didn't know anyone else in the class. However, Y/N understood her role in society, she was a greaser, who might have been a soc had things been a little different for her family. But she wouldn't trade what she had now with the gang for anything, especially not to become some stuck up rich kid who thinks she's better than everyone.

Johnny and Ponyboy were young and shy, and although sometimes they would definitely blush when she complimented them, or brushed their arm, they never made a move. Darry, was a couple years older than Y/N and just a little too mature for her. But Two-Bit, Dally, and Steve really enjoyed messing around and flirting with her. Sodapop, despite being the biggest flirt of the gang, hardly ever flirted with Y/N, making her suppress her feelings for him. Truthfully, she had always had a crush on him, but she knew it was pointless. He had groups of beautiful Soc girls throwing themselves at him everyday, why would he choose her?

Tonight, everyone was hanging at the Curtis house, preparing to watch a scary movie that was about to play on the television. The gang sat spread out across the floor and couches, Johnny, Ponyboy and Dally settled on the floor, Darry had taken the armchair in the corner of the room, on the shorter side of the couch Two-Bit had sprawled his whole body across it, leaving Y/N to squeeze in between Steve and Sodapop on the other side.

Everyone was still joking around and yelling, as it was still a few minutes before the movie came on. An argument had broken out about who needed to get up to make the popcorn.

"Excuse me, I worked all day, to provide for my kid brothers, Dallas Winston you don't even attend school!" Darry quipped.

"Oh, fine Darrel, you shouldn't have to get it, but I worked a whole day at the DX, and I do not find it fair that I should have to, either...Two-Bit should!" Steve replied.

Knowing this would not end soon, nor well, Y/N once again acted as the stand in mom for the group, getting up without complaint to retrieve the popcorn.

"You guys are children," she rolled her eyes as she stood up and began the short walk to the kitchen.

A chorus of, "Thank you, Y/N" rang out from the other room. With an additional, "since you're up would you mind getting me a beer?" from Two-Bit, and a "and could I get a coke?" from Dallas.

"Yeah, if you get off your lazy asses and get in here to get it yourself." Following her remark, laughter erupted before Y/N heard someone else enter the kitchen. She was still making the popcorn when she glanced over her shoulder to see Two-Bit heading to the refrigerator.

"Aww, Doll, I don't want you to think were trying to take you for granted, I know we make fun of ya but we really are mighty thankful you stick around." He softly says with a sincerity in his voice that isn't typically heard.
