The camera pans across Ponyboy’s anxious face, capturing the flush on his cheeks as memories of Sodapop’s teasing and Dally’s wolfish grin flash in his mind. He stands frozen in you’s room, the air thick with unspoken tension. The soft crackle of the record player breaks the silence, filling the space with Michael Bublé’s smooth crooning. As you turns, grinning, Ponyboy’s throat goes dry. He nods, swallowing hard, as you’s hand finds his waist. The frame tightens on their joined hands, Ponyboy’s grip tightening as he lets himself be led, lost in the intimacy of the moment.
