Darry’s P.O.V
“Daddy?” Danny asks from the back seat. He was six now, and Olivia was one.
“What happened to your mommy and daddy?” He asks.
I don’t answer for a minute, just keep driving. What do I say?
“My mommy and daddy are hanging out in heaven.” Is all I can think of to say.
“They’re partying with Jesus?” Danny asks. “That’s cool!”
“Yeah, bud,” I smile. “Partying with Jesus.”
“Yes I do.” She says in that you’ve-told-me-a-million-times voice.
“Ok… Well are 你 sure 你 want to do this?” I ask nervously.
“I’m positive.” She says as she gives me a quick 吻乐队(Kiss) on the lips.
“I swear, if 你 hurt yourself…” I shake my head.
The motorcycle starts, and goes forward. Instead of going with the motorcycle., she flips off backwards from it.
I immediately rush to (Y/N).
“Oh my god, (Y/N), are 你 ok? Are 你 hurt? Where are 你 hurt?” I say, head spinning. If she’s hurt badly I’ll just…
“Dally I’m fine.. The motorcycle-“
“Steve can fix the motorcycle. Are 你 ok? Where are 你 hurt? Do we need to go to the hospital?”
“Dally I’m fine!” She laughs.
“You worry me,” I say, as I scoop her into a hug.
你 aren’t exactly sure what you’re humming to… But it’s something.
“Hey, (Y/N), have 你 seen my-” “THUD!” 你 rip open the 淋浴 curtain to see your boyfriend had tripped over the doorway.
“Oh my god, Two-Bit, are 你 ok?!?” 你 gasp.
He looks up at you. “Oh my god you’re in the shower!” He yells.
你 yank the curtain back, covering yourself up.
“Two-Bit, are 你 ok honey?”you ask.
“After seeing that I’m not.” He says. “Damn, your beautiful.” He says, blushing.
“What a pig.” 你 laugh.
“(Y/N), please stay out of this.” Darry says, eyes still locked on his younger brother.
“She has a point.” Ponyboy snorts.
“Don’t use that tone with me, young man.” Darry says, voice raised.
“Who went and made 你 dad?” Ponyboy asked, shrugging his shoulders.
“You take that back.” Darry says, lunging for Ponyboy.
They start beating up on each other, nothing serious. Brothers will be brothers.
“Hey! Knock it off!” 你 say, trying to separate them on the ground.
Smack!
你 fall back, the hit getting 你 hard.
The boys freeze, realizing they’ve hit you.
“Ow!” 你 say. “That was my boob!”
They burst out laughing.
“Oh my god, Steve. Your eye.” 你 say as 你 remove the ice pack.
“It’s just bump.” He grins.
“A bump? Honey, it’s a huge black eye. It’s 更多 like an egg.” 你 say.
“Old Man can still pack a punch, huh?”
“Steve, 你 need to get out of there.” 你 say matter-of-factly.
“I got nowhere to go.”
“You can stay with the Curtises. 或者 me. I just don’t like seeing 你 hurt.” 你 whisper.
“I’d rather it be me than you.” He says.
“What?” He asks, glancing over at you.
“You’re gonna get pulled over,” 你 say, rolling your eyes.
“Do 你 think I’d care?” He laughed.
“Dallas Winston, I am shocked and appalled 你 just 说 that to me and ran that red light.” 你 laugh. “I’m horrified at your driving skills. Remind me not to get into a car with 你 again.”

Light cracked the sky open. The crash that followed jolted 你 awake. 你 sit up in your bed, wide eyed with fear.
你 had been afraid of thunderstorms since 你 were little… something about it just frightened 你 to no end.
The sound of your boyfriend breathing calmed 你 down. The rhythmic deep breathing soothed you, only for a second.
Another crack lit up the sky, with a giant boom that followed.
“Dally.” 你 shake your boyfriend awake.
“Babe… what’s the ma-” He stops as he sees your eyes, wide with fear. He sits up straight and wraps his arms around 你 pulling 你 close. “You’re fine… You’re fine.” He whispers, rocking 你 back and forth. “I got you. I promise. I got you.” Hands running through your hair.
“I just don’t like them.” 你 mumble into his bare chest.
“I know. I know.” He say. “But I still got you. I promise.”
But 你 were already asleep again.
