No one expected the two people who hated each other most to fall in love. After never ending arguments, fights, and unexpected events they slowly fell. They were the type of people to hate each other so much but yet again desire each other. They were so similar but so damn different, at times they would lock into each other's beautiful hazel eyes and remember how much they need each other. How much they truly mean to each other. They would say I hate you but really they can't live with out each other. They always tried avoiding one another and separating but it never worked, they always ended up with each other. Even if they did hate each other. They never expected to slowly fall for each other. ఌ "I hate you" my blood boiled with rage, I felt like punching him or scream at him. My heart beat like a drum. A drop of sweat slowly rolled down his temple. "Say it again" he clenched his jaw and got closer to me. "I fucking hate you. Did you hear me! Did you hear what I said?! I hate you?!" I felt his hand around my throat. He looked into my eyes as I looked into his. "I hate you" I said softly feeling his hand run down my chest. "I despise you" he left walking away leaving me with want and hate.Complete

What if Darry never hit Ponyboy when he came home late? What if Darry never yelled at Ponyboy? What if Ponyboy went straight to bed with Soda? What if... Ponyboy had feelings for Johnny? What if Johnny felt the same way? • Holy woah. This story is getting quite the personality with the comments. Wow, thank you guys for all the support! I wrote this thinking it would just be some stupidly cheesy, over exaggerated gay comedy of Johnnyboy, and I did just that. This fanfic has a crapload of dorkiness that will make you explode with love, and I am never making a sequel so enjoy it ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)♥️Complete

(ANYONE WHO IS UNDER 16 AND IS CURRENTLY SUICIDAL, DEALING WITH OR EXPERIENCING THOUGHTS OF SELF-HARM PLEASE JUST CHOOSE A DIFFERENT STORY. THIS ISNT A FUN RIDE) Johnny has always been different, the gang knew that. He was always doing something to be proud of but he'll forever be a greaser unless his folks actually started to care for him, and even then, he'll always be an outcast, a delinquent. Johnny doesn't mind that though, he likes it the way it is, but he mainly would just like things to be different at home, but he's content with the gang. He was okay with them. Until his father dies. His old man had always treated him like shit anyway, but there was something inside that was crushed. Dad would sometimes help little Johnny out, it was his mother that had made things worse for him. After his death, Johnny couldn't cope much anymore, he was used to being able to, but now his emotions were out of control. He starts to spiral downwards. The gang is with him the whole time and tries their hardest to keep him at his best, but Johnny becomes irrational, too unpredictable for the gang to even understand but Johnny doesn't go down alone, he brings someone with him.Complete

Game of Survival (The Outsiders)
Darrel is stressed with work and taking care of his two brothers and was getting angry a lot recently. Sodapop felt disconnected and almost sick all of the time and was very tired of being a middleman to his brothers all the time. Ponyboy was struggling with his sexual orientation and was scared what others would say when he realised he had fallen in love with, not even a girl, but Johnny Cade. Really just me trauma-dumping onto all of the Curtis brothers and adding Darrel's anger issues to the mix.Complete
-Only in my head-
An Outsiders story✨️💛 "I can't love you. I just can't. Not after everything that's happened to me" After being caught up in a murder wrap completely by accident, she seems tuff on the outside, but on the inside, she's running scared. And she's running not only from the police, but from a bad memory that keeps resurfacing, no matter where she goes or how far she runs. She needs to get away. Otherwise she'll end up in a situation just like before. It's a long journey, but it's not so bad when you've got people to share it with. I do not own any of the characters except y/n, all other rights, characters, storylines and plots belong to S. E. Hinton. Enjoy, and stay gold💛✨️Complete
