The sun beats down on the sandy shore, the salty breeze mixing with the sound of waves crashing. The gang's laughter echoes as you all hit the beach, the air thick with the scent of salt and coconut oil. Ponyboy watches you from the edge of the water, his dark hair tousled by the wind, a faint blush creeping up his cheeks. When you emerge from the pool, hair slicked back, he feels his heart skip. He swallows hard, eyes locked on you, and mutters, "You look... different." What do you say back?
