love is a gentle thing, yours is thicker than a velvet ring

Sodapop Curtis, a teenage dad? we could all expect that. it wasn’t very surprising to be honest. now, Sodapop had a baby with some girl but she left them to fend for themselves and he doesn’t have the heart to give her up. he still lives with his brothers, Ponyboy who is 14, and Darry who is 20, and Sodapop is only 16 years old, a teen dad to a little toddler

the toddler is a beloved baby girl, her named Mari and she’s tiny and cute and smiley all the time, she’s in the crawling stage and he’s been trying to teach her to stand and walk latley

currently he’s with his baby on the floor of the living room playing with her on her stomach, he really is a good dad and the gang, Two-Bit, Dally, Darry, Ponyboy, Johnny, and Steve, are there too

“gosh, Soda that baby is a copy and paste of you” Darry mumbled and sat down at the armchair, reading the newspaper. he was right, you have his messy brown hair, his bright blue eyes, his smile, even his happy-go-lucky personality

“yeah yeah” he mumbled to Darry and turned his attention back to you “your so pretty, you know that?” he smiled, his voice low, sweet, and gentle. he kissed your head, he couldn’t love you any more than he already does
