Y/N POV:
Christmas was around the corner and I am so ready. We have been in Christmas break for 1 day already. Today is Thursday the 23rd so tomorrow is Christmas Eve and finally Christmas. I went Christmas shopping yesterday with Dally cause we hadn't bought anything yet. I decided I'd get Pony his own copy of 'Gone with the Wind'. I also wrote a note in a piece of paper and put it in the book. I wrapped it in some wrapping paper I had laying around somewhere.

I also had gotten everyone in the gang their own presents with money I had left I never got to use. Dally got them gifts too and I went to a separate store to get his gifts. I didn't want him to know what I would be getting him. I got Dal a new pair of jeans, a new belt, and a good quality lighter for his cigarettes even though I hated that he smoked. We then joined back and I went into the car going back home with him. Today was a day we would just lay around the house. Maybe I'd go over or the Curtis home and hang out with Pony. I wasn't sure but I left it alone. Currently it was 6 p.m so I was pretty sure I'd just stay around here and watch some Tv.

Dally and I had dinner and told me he was going out to see his girlfriend Veronica. I still have yet to meet her but I did know I was gonna meet her on Saturday . I was going to spend Christmas Eve over at Pony's house and Christmas Day with Dally. I wanted to stay with Pony and the gang but he told me that he wanted me to spend time with him so I agreed. I also had then found out over hearing him call her that she would be here on Christmas. Hopefully she isn't bad news or rude. But with Dally you wouldn't get that guaranteed to you.

I went over to my room and got ready for bed. Cause tomorrow was Christmas Eve. I woke up to a kiss on my forehead. I was confused and saw Pony when I opened my eyes. "Pony what are you doing here so early." "It ain't that early. It's 11:30 a.m. Slept well?" I nodded at him and pushed him to lay down on the bed with me. I was still extremely tired but I would be up soon. He took off his shoes and laid down with me. I rested my head on his chest. "You excited bout tonight?" "Yeah I am. I'm excited for food and getting to sleep over." I said to him smiling. "I'm glad Dal agreed on letting ya sleep over y/n. I know you can't spend Christmas together with us though. Sorry bout that." "It's fine. I'm pretty sure Dal wants me to meet his girlfriend for Christmas dinner. Hopefully she isn't like one of those fake tough Greaser girls." He nodded and smiled at me. He left my room and I quickly changed my clothes. I then brushed my hair and teeth. Afterwards I went out of my room and put on my shoes to go out with Pony. Dal told me last night he was gonna hang out with his girlfriend and go to Buck's place most of the day. So I decided I'd be with Pony and do whatever he wanted. I was more than happy to do so. We first went to his house and most of the gang was there. They greeted me and so I greeted them back. "Hey where's Dal?" Darry had asked me. "He's hanging out with his girlfriend for most of the day. I wouldn't be surprised if he comes with her to dinner tonight." I said back to him. He nodded and Pony and I went on our way. We watched Mickey Mouse with Two-Bit. Sodapop was still asleep since he had to work late last night so he couldn't have work today. Steve is at work so he won't be here till tonight. And like I said Dal is with his girl. It's odd to think he is with someone. But as long as he was happy then so was I.

I had been eating some chocolate cake with Pony. I don't know how Darry does it but it's so good. For Dal's birthday back in November, Sodapop and I made the cake for him but it was too sweet cause Soda adds too much sugar to the icing. So Darry had to remake it cause he didn't approve. I remember Dally being super upset not cause of the cake but cause he hates his birthday and we celebrated it. Thing is no one knew it was gonna be his birthday, so when I told them they all were in awe. Dally was almost going to beat the Tar out of me cause of it but he didn't. It was about 3:30 now and we had been here for a while. I fell asleep with Pony at one point. Johnny came by earlier but wanted to go give Vanessa her gift for tomorrow so he left early. I had woke up by the guys surrounding me. I yelled when they all started laughing as I jumped. "We got her good huh Ponyboy?!" Two-Bit said while laughing. I was so confused but laughed with them. It was odd but it happened. Currently Pony and I are outside on the porch swinging on it. "What do you think about Dal havin' a girlfriend Y/n? I remember when Soda had been with his first girlfriend and it was rough." "It's fine I guess. I haven't met the girl. Dally sure has been happy though so that's a plus. What happens in his relationship is his problem ya know? As long as you and I are going well then that's all that matters for me currently." I said to him. He nodded "He bringin' her tonight?" "Maybe. He might just stay with her tonight." I said and shrugged. "Well you and I are still gonna stay the night together right?" He asked me shyly. I gave him and kiss and played with his hair. "Of course Pony, I wanna spend the night with ya still 100%. I'll kiss ya all over the whole night haha." He giggled at the remark and finally I saw Dal go into the drive way across from me. Pony and I stared at my house and saw that from his car Darry and some girl with short dark blonde hair and a slim figure came out of the car. "Do you think that's his girlfriend?" I asked Pony but he shrugged. About 20 mins had passed and Pony and I had went into my house. We opened the door and quietly went over to my room. About 10 mins after we settled in my room, Dal walked in. "Hey Pony. Y/n, Veronica is here and I want you to meet her, Pony you can come too." "Okay Dal. Sounds good. Come on Pony." Him and I go into the living and waited for Dal to come and meet Veronica. "Hello." She said softly. A girl with Dark blonde hair and brown eyes came and shook Pony and my hand. "Veronica, this is Y/n my kid sister and this is Ponyboy, her boyfriend. You'll be seeing them both a lot." Dally said laughing. "Nice to meet you Veronica. Like Dal said I'm his younger sister and this is Ponyboy." Pony and I smiled. "Nice to meet you Y/n and Ponyboy. Dal and I are heading to that Christmas party later tonight. I'll see you both there." She smiled and went out. "I'm gonna go spend sometime at her house see you both later." He kissed my forehead and left. "Well we were right. That was her. What'd you think?" "She was nice I guess. Pony can you help me pick my outfit out?" I asked him softly. "I'm not good with that type of stuff but I guess it won't hurt."

After that I had found a nice outfit to wear. I wore some cute Dark red pants and a Black Polo. I put on my necklace and rings and brushed my hair out. I put some mascara on and headed out. Pony loved it and I was happy about it. He had been dressed the way he would be for tonight the whole day. I put on a wedged type of pair of shoes. And we headed out to his house. I was 5:30 p.m so it would be fine. We usually ate at 6:30-7:00. We got there and saw the guys. They complemented the outfit in which I said Pony helped me choose. We sat and watched Christmas movies on the small television. The record player was playing some old classic Christmas songs. Dal and his girl finally got there and everyone talked to her and congratulated Dal on the pretty broad. We ate and everyone else started going home. I had made sure earlier to bring the guys' gifts. Along with the ones Dally chose too. I went over to Pony's room where I would be sleeping tonight. Soda would be in his room even though he usually slept with Pony. I put on the pjs I had brought for myself. It was a long white T-shirt, may I add that I had stolen from Dally, and some long night wear pants. I changed into my clothes and laid on the bed waiting for Pony. Finally I heard him open the door. "Hey beautiful." "Hi handsome." I said back to him. He had changed his outfit and was laying down. I had blushed a little being how he had only been in his boxers and the rest was bare. I had embraced his warmth and laid my head on his chest. We had kissed for about a minute but tried not to make a lot of noise. He separated and finally he spoke. "God I love you." "I love you too Pone." I said to him after that him and I had knocked out cold into our sleep.

We woke up at about 9:30 the next morning and I was so excited. IT'S CHRISTMAS!!! I had given him a kiss on his forehead and he smiled waking up. "Morning y/n." "Good Morning!! Merry Christmas Sweetie!" I kissed him on the lips and got up. I went to the living room where I saw almost everyone. "Morning! Merry Christmas!" I said hugging everyone. "Someone's excited." Sodapop said and I nodded I sat on the couch and felt Pony sit next to me laying his head on my chest. Everyone got their gifts out and I got the ones I bought and same for Dally's. "Here Pony." I said lastly after giving everyone their stuff. "Hey ya got me 'Gone with the wind!' Thank you so much Y/n." He said giving me a kiss. I smiled at him and he loved it. "Here's your gift from me." He said to me handing over a small box. I had unwrapped it and what looked like a jewelry box was there.. "Pony...you didn't have too." "Go and open it." He said to me. As I opened it I saw a beautiful necklace. It had the two letters PB meaning it was Pony. I cried. I loved it so much. "Pony.... thank you so much. I love it so much." "You're welcome. I love you." He kissed the side of my head. He had taken the necklace and I moved my hair up so he could put it on. Finally he did it and it was so beautiful. I loved it so much. The rest of the day I got ready and spent it with Dally and his girlfriend. This was the first Christmas that I had really enjoyed in a long time.
