A short litte PonyJohnny slash. An idea I got while watching the stars a few nights ago.


Johnny stared up into the night sky, seeing the view you normally couldn’t in the city. Windrexville was the perfect place to see the stars so bright, and he loved every minute of it. It was the third day after killing the Soc and he and Pony were hiding out in the old church in Windrexville. Pony was in the church, asleep, and Johnny was outside on the porch watching the sky. Ponyboy might be the one who watched sunsets, but Johnny was the one to watch the stars. It was unfortunate that he couldn’t see a single star yet, because it was still a little too bright for the stars to appear.

“Johnny?” Ponyboy asked, sitting next to his friend.

“Yeah?”

“What are you doing?” he asked. Johnny watched Pony’s face for a moment, then adverted his eyes to the sky once more.

“Waiting for the stars. I thought you were asleep.”

“Well, I woke up.” Johnny looked back at the blond greaser and couldn’t help but chuckle. Pony looked so young with his hair cut off and bleached like that. Then he saw Pony shiver, so he moved closer to him to trap body heat between them. Ponyboy looked down at Johnny with a thankful expression and went back to watching the sky.

A few moments passed and Pony pointed out the first star. “There it is!” he called. Johnny smiled.

“You saw the first one, you get to wish on it.” Pony gave Johnny a sideways glance before looking back at the star.

“Star light, star bright. I wish I may, I wish I might. I wish upon, the first star tonight.” Pony’s eyes were closed, wishing on the star. Johnny watched him. He leaned back and waited. Suddenly, Pony’s lips grazed Johnny’s softly, only for a moment. He pulled back, blushing, and stood up.

“Pone?” Johnny asked. “Was that your wish?” Pony nodded.

“Yeah.”

“Well, it came true.”


It's way too short, but kinda cute.
