“Still trying to grease that hair, hood?” 你 laugh from behind him.
He whirls around. “(Y/N)?”

“Missed 你 too.” 你 squeezed him.
“Well look at what we’ve got here… Damn 你 were like, nine the last time we saw you? 嘿 Ponyboy…She’s really uh ‘grown up’, hasn’t she?” Two-Bit laughs.
“Shut up,” Ponyboy mutters. But he was looking at you.

But I was happy.
