TULSA, OKLAHOMA; 1966


" just because i let you go, doesn't mean i wanted to. "
        
         " but we won't forget each other right? "

" maybe our paths will cross again. "
 
        " then i'll tell you how desperately in love i was."


where a simple girl and a rough boy 
find themselves in love, 
the type of love people like them wouldn't expect,
but young teenagers find out that sometimes,
life isn't fair, and people come and go
so they are forced to see, 
if their love can last the test of time,
and if they don't forget in the meantime.

I stopped dead in my tracks that time. "I am not a child Dally. Stop treating me like one!" He hesitated to say anything but then spit something out. "I need to protect you from the Socs. They could make unexpected appearances." He looked over my head avoiding eye contact. "I can handle myself." I continued to walk home, and that was that. ••••• Maria spent last summer in Tulsa Oklahoma with her cousin Two-Bit, where she was sweet, innocent and friendly. She fell in love with one of Two-Bits friends, a greaser. After a tragic accident that killed her parents, Maria decides to live with Two-Bit in Tulsa. It's been a year since she's been there and she's just about to start school. Maria gets closer to the gang and the events that they face as well as some personal issues with the Socs.

Madeline Craft. 19. College freshman. Ex-greaser, or so she thought. When she gets a custody call that her two siblings were seemingly abandoned in their Tulsa home, there's no option: she has to go back. It wasn't ideal, but her little brothers, four-year-old twins Jack and Graham, they needed her more than she needed college. Besides, college would always be there if she could ever go back. But on a cold day, back at her high school job working at The Dingo, she meets someone that makes anything poor become great. All rights to SE Hinton besides my additions :)

I Owe You My Life | Ponyboy x female!OC **COMPLETE** by i_like_chopped_liver

Just a trigger warning on this book: mentions of self-harm and course language. Delaina Campbell is just a young girl trying to get buy. Her parents died and she's in love with her best friend. There are a few bumps along the way, but eventually, she gets her happily ever after she's always dreamed of. I don't own any of these characters except for Delaina Campbell. Everyone else, S.E. Hinton has the right to. Credit goes to my best friend @bangtanxjackharlow for helping me come up with the title and some other ideas. Start Date: June 29th, 2021 End Date: December 1st, 2021
