Or, In the summer before senior year, Ponyboy tried to kill himself. Now, it’s a year later—the summer before his freshman year in college and things need to change before he leaves.

Summary
The church basement smells like instant coffee and grief, and Darry Curtis is standing at the top of the stairs holding his baby sister like a shield.
She's wearing a dress that cost seventy-five cents at a thrift store and took a week to restore. Soda did her hair. She's perfect. She's ridiculous. She's the only thing keeping the three of them from coming apart at the seams.
Five months since the funeral. Five months of checking locks three times and reaching for coffee cups that aren't there anymore. Five months of learning that love, in the aftermath, doesn't look heroic—it looks like folding chairs and macaroni salad and letting strangers hold what you can't bear to put down.
Or: the Curtis brothers take Pone to her first church social.
Nothing happens.
Everything happens.Series

Summary
Pony Curtis has always been a good liar...so good she can even fool herself sometimes. It's a skill that comes in handy when Bob Sheldon ends up dead, and no one can know that she had anything to do with it. Not even her brothers.

Summary
“I think he’s dead. I really think he's dead.”
The bomb in his heart explodes.
“What?” Darry exclaims, his grip on the telephone growing so tight he’s worried he might shatter the plastic. “Pony, who’s dead?”
“He was coming at me, Darry, and I don’t know--”
“Kiddo, you have to calm down. Who's dead?”
There’s a heavy pause. “I don't know. I don’t know, I don’t know.” Pony trails off with a shuddering exhale and another sniffle.
This does nothing to help the situation at hand. “Are you hurt?”
“Busted my lip. I think I’m okay,” he replies, his voice more calm but still shaken. “Darry, he had a gun.”
“Ponyboy! Next time, lead with that!” Darry roars, his eyes so wide he wonders if they’re falling out of his head. The headlights of their Ford light the living room momentarily, and Darry swallows hard. “Your brother just pulled in. Don’t move, you hear me?”
