Forbidden love: a Johnny Cade fanfic

Lucille Brown is a sixteen year old black girl who attends Will Rodgers high- a predominantly white high school. She used to love high school before her parents sent her to a white school for a "better opportunity". But things start to look up when she befriends the cute shy kid who sits next to her in English class. She loved that they shared similar struggles and could relate to each other. Soon she realizes she feels a little more for him...

"She's the reason I haven't ended it all...The reason I even go to school anymore. She motivates me. God she's so beautiful and smart. I remember when I first saw her. Her hair was done all puffy and she had on a nice blue dress. She looked classier than anyone I ever saw. She smiled at me, warmly, but I foolishly looked away.
I told my buddy Dallas about her. He told me girls ain't worth nothing. That all they do is cheat on you with Tim Shepard. So I decided to turn to my boy Soda for advice instead. He was good with girls. Tol' me that if I feel so strongly about her, I needed to pursue her. Basically I needed to stop being such a shy dumbass. So I gained this newfound confidence. She made me feel like I could conquer anything."

A/n:

I've felt an emotional attachment to Johnny Cade's character ever since we read The Outsiders in eighth grade. I felt as though I personally knew him. His death hit me harder than anything ever. I was super upset for a little over a year and still get a little emotional to this day. Back then I even daydreamed and made up scenarios of him and I in English class. Every time I cry, I think about him and cry even harder. To this day I still cannot explain why I am so attached to him. Though now that I am older I don't feel attracted to him anymore but I still feel that emotional attachment I've always felt. This is to all my Johnny Cade fans. I hope you can live out your fantasies through my story and temporarily escape this cruel, cruel world. Stay gold and I love you always 💛
