Shaylei Curtis (Shay for short) was never in the spotlight. Younger sister to Darry Curtis (a high school football star), twin sister to Sodapop Curtis (the best looking boy any girl could ever hope to meet), and older sister to Ponyboy Curtis (one of the smartest kids in his grade), Shay always struggled to make a name for herself in a town where status is everything. It seemed that her golden opportunity had arrived when she was awarded a scholarship to New York's finest dance academy, a place where she was judged not by her financial status, but by the quality of her talent. Now, four months after her parents' deaths, Shay has returned home to face her brothers, their Gang of friends, and the truth about the life she left behind.
*I own nothing other than Shay's character. All other credit goes to the fabulous S.E. Hinton
*While this book is set during the same time frame as the original book/movie, I will be pulling in several modern day references. Sorry if that confuses anyone. It's just kind of how I imagined everything.

Dream On Fire (Dallas Winston)
I admired him from afar. Having an infatuation with Dally was one thing, but letting it be known in my world was destructive. My brothers would have my neck if they knew I was feeling the way that I was about their best friend, and if they knew we became anything other than civil, they'd have him six feet under. So I resisted Dallas as best as I could. But that could only go on for so long.

The One That Got Away | Johnny Cade x reader | The Outsiders
This is basically The Outsiders movie but with you inserted into it. You're a cheery but tuff looking greaser girl who's close with the gang. For years the gang has teased you and Johnny about being together and you always refused not knowing of a possible crush you had on him. But when Johnny fatally stabs a Socs and you have to go into hiding you might have to realize that you feel some type of way about him before it's too late. The Outsiders is not my book nor movie, I'm just using the inspiration from both to write this novel! The lines that come from the movie and the book in this novel belong to S.E Hinton!Complete
