We all know how odd it is to see a rich girl living on the East Side of Tulsa Oklahoma. A girl with a mustang is new to Tulsa and out on her own. Still with the financial stability of her rich Soc parents living on the West Side with her older brother. Upon meeting Ponyboy who is two years younger than she is, he has him acting out against his usual self as they grow to like each other. Dallas Winston who lives across the hall has a bigger problem than just their social status with them dating. He wants her. Just Around the Corner is a love story between Dallas Winston, the arrogant JD who has problems with keeping his ex out of the picture and Mona Brown, the girl with the rich family who wants nothing less than another Soc for her to date. Dally has to prove to Mona the kind of guy he can be while Mona figures out if possibly being cut out of the will is worth the boy she grows to love. Jackie Mona Brown lives right across the hall from Dallas Winston. Being just around the corner from each other quickly becomes a blessing and a curse as the two can't keep away from each other, but the toxic relationship filled with make outs and fights blossoms into a deep emotional connection between the two. No ones ever seen it from Dally, and Mona needs to find a way to show her parents and overprotective older brother that dating a Greaser isn't so bad.

Roxanne Miller, a 16 year old prostitute, and Dallas Winston, a 17 year old delinquent, meet and unfortunately they're all too perfect for each other. She's serious and demanding yet reserved and insecure. She's quite the flirt and usually doesn't take shit from anyone. She pulls in good money and her customers always keep coming back. Dallas is quite the same. Always seems to not care about anyone or anything, will do anything for the adrenaline rush and man does he get what he wants. Dallas and Roxy become friends, and before Dallas will allow him to even think about dating her, she needs to get out of the industry. While it's easier said than done, Dally sticks by her nearly every step of the way. The only thing coming between Roxy and her escape from prostitution and drugs, is her pimp, her desire for money, and her lack of self control.
