Summary
“Fuck off, Curly!”
Curly has been told to fuck off a lot in his life. In fact, he’d even say he’s been told to fuck off by Ponyboy a lot in his life- but until now Ponyboy’s never meant it. Not really.
Now though, with his dreamy eyes blazing and his hands curled into fists it’s clear that Pony means it and Curly has well and truly fucked everything up. Tim was right- he really does ruin everything.
“Pony-”
He’s cut off when Pony takes a swing at him, and just barely manages to duck out of the way. It’s a testament to how much he likes Ponyboy and how sorry he is that he doesn't swing back.

Summary
Ponyboy doesn’t usually wander into Shepard territory, but Curly has a way of pulling him along whether he means to or not.
What starts as a picnic with stolen sandwiches turns into something softer, something neither of them are quite ready to name.
A clearing hidden between the train tracks and the trees becomes their own small world, if only for one afternoon.Series

Summary
Curly gasped out another laugh, holding his stomach. Ponyboy doesn’t think he’s ever seen him smile this wide.
“Shut the fuck up, man!”
Ponyboy feels a hand over his mouth, and stacks his over top of it, nodding like he’s just been given an order from the president.
Curly just laughs harder, and Ponyboy feels himself smile so hard it hurts. Maybe it’s because the smile hasn’t left his face for an hour, or maybe because he just hasn’t smiled in a while.
Or,
Curly and Ponyboy smoke pot in the backseat of a dingy car. Feelings ensue.Bookmarked by irlriddler

Summary
“Don’t say shit like that to me,” Curly says after a moment. “I’m not your fucking boyfriend, Pony.”
Ponyboy knows that. He’s known that since he had asked if that was something Curly would want after the first month they’d been doing this; this meaning the hook-ups, and spending entire days together, and holding each other while they slept. Curly had laughed, a short and dismissive sound, and made some joke about Ponyboy reading too many romance novels.
or
i listened to 'casual' by chappell roan and went. yeah ponyboy/curly core.
