Modern au 😚
Also Pony is 22 and Johnny is 24

I opened my eyes and immediately groaned at the bright light. My head ached and I felt as if I had to vomit. "What the hell.." I mumble led and sat up slowly. I was in some sort of hotel, but had no idea how I'd gotten there. Johnny was sleeping next to me, with his arms wrapped around a pillow tightly. The sight made me chuckle lightly, and I reached out and ruffled his curly hair.

  I checked my phone and saw that it was almost noon, and I that I had a few missed calls from Two-bit. I called him back quickly, hoping that he had some answers as to what happened the night before. I remembered that we had made a last minute decision to go to Las Vegas, since the three of us had all met up for the first time in a while. Well, Johnny and I still saw each other often, but we hadn't seen Two bit in a while. We went to a few bars, and had a few drinks, but the rest is all fuzzy. I guess a 'few' drinks is a bit of an understatement. We all must have been extremely drunk, seeing as how it looked like Johnny and I had passed out as soon as we got in the hotel.

"Ponyboy?" Two-bit's voice sounded extremely worried.

"Hey, I'm okay, where are you?"

"Oh thank God. Pony do you know what your brothers would do to me if I got you killed in Vegas?" He laughed lightly, trying to calm himself down.

  "I'm an adult Two, they I'd be responsible for my own death." I laughed as well, but it just made my head start pounding even harder. "God, what the hell happened last night?"

  "I've got no idea. I was just as drunk as y'all were. I can't remember a thing. Maybe Johnny knows?"

  I turned to look at Johnny. "I doubt it, he—" I suddenly gasped when I saw that there was a shiny wedding band on his ring finger. "Holy shit..Two-bit I think Johnny got married last night."

  "What!"

  "He's wearing a wedding ring! Who the hell did he marry?" I shrieked. "I'll call you back. Just text me where you wanna meet up later." I ended the call and started shaking Johnny. "Hey, wake up!"

  He groaned. "Stop Pony.."

  "No, get up. You got married last night while you were drunk, and we need to figure out to who."

  He sat up slowly. "Married?"

  I grabbed his hand and held it up to his face, where he could see the ring. "Yeah Johnny, married!"

  His face paled and he began breathing heavily. "Oh my God, I don't wanna be married to a random stranger! What the hell was I thinking?"

  I sighed and looked away. "I don't know. But I obviously let you go through with it, which is hard to believe.."

  "Was it a girl I married?" He asked. "God I can't remember anything..I'm gonna be sick." He got out of bed and stumbled into the bathroom. A few minutes later I heard him throwing up.

  I slowly got out of bed and went in to help him. "Johnny?"

  He flushed the toilet and laid on the floor, miserably. "Pony I can't believe I married someone. I don't even know if it was a boy or girl!"

  "Why would it be a boy?"

  "Because I'm gay you idiot! I figured just about everyone knew!" He groaned.

  "You're gay? You never told me that, how would I know?" I exclaimed.

  "Because I flirt with you all the time? Which is another reason why it's hard to believe I married someone while I was drunk. I've liked you ever since we were kids." He sat up and sighed. "Can you please get me a cup of water?"

  "Uh..y-yeah. Sure." I was sort of in a state of shock at the news he had just told me. I stood up and walked to the sink. "I can't believe I let you get married, since I've liked you for a while, too."

  "You have?" He said, obviously surprised. He started smiling, but it quickly went away. "Well it doesn't matter now because I'm married to some random person who I will never be able to find again."

  I sighed and reached to get one of the small plastic cups on the counter. It was then, when I saw it. Another, shiny and gold wedding band on my left ring finger. "Oh my God! Johnny I got married too!"

  "What?" He stood up and looked at my ring. "To who?"

  "How the hell am I supposed to know?" I said in disbelief. Fear began building up inside of me, and I felt the need to throw up even more than I already had. My phone began ringing but I didn't care enough to answer it. I had honestly felt like crying. Johnny and I just sat on the ground, listening to both of out phones ringing non stop.

Eventually though, they stopped ringing, and they just kept vibrating with numerous text messages. "Damnit!" Johnny said and stood up, grabbing his. "Can't whoever it is see I wanna be left alone." He began scrolling through reading everything.

"Who is it?" I asked.

"Who isn't it?" He stared at me. "They're all texting me! Your brothers, Dally, Steve, and Two bit." He grabbed my phone and checked it. "And you too!"

My phone began ringing, and this time I decided to answer. "Hello?"

"Ponyboy!" Two bit yelled. "Fucking check my Snapchat story! Oh God everyone I know has seen it already! They all know!"

"All know what?" I asked desperately.

"Just watch it!" He said, and hung up.

  Johnny heard what two had said as well. We both looked at each other before I nervously clicked on Snapchat. I scrolled to two bits story, hesitated for a few seconds, before finally clicking on it. The first two were pictures of the three of us that we had taken. I could remember taking those. The next one was a picture of the Ferris wheel that we had seen once we got there. The next one was a photo of two bit in a Mickey Mouse shirt he had found in a store. They had all been normal, until I clicked on.

  It was a video of Two bit crying and saying how proud he was of 'his two boys Pony and Johnny.' It was clear he was drunk. He then flipped the camera, and Johnny and I gasped. The two of us were standing at an alter sort of thing, holding hands. A guy dressed up as Elvis was behind us, asking us questions. We both leaned in and kissed for a while, before the video ended.

  "Johnny.." I turned my phone off and looked at him. "Dude. We got married to each other. You're my husband."

  Johnny stared at the ground. "Well..that kinda makes since I guess. If we both liked each other before, our drunk selves would definitely think that it was a good idea to get married."

  "Yeah.." I checked my text messages and saw most were from Darry.

Darry: why wouldn't you tell me that you and Johnny were dating??

Darry: I would have supported you pony

Darry: I love both of you

Darry: I wanted to be at your wedding

Darry: please call me

Darry: did you think I would hate you? I wouldn't I promise.

I sighed and read the rest of the others.

Sodapop: PONYBOY MICHAEL CURTIS I WANTED TO BE YOUR BEST MAN

Sodapop: I can't believe you would get married and not tell anybody but two bit!

Steve: fuckin knew you were gay for Johnny Dally owes me 20 buckssss lol congrats

Dally: pissed that I never saw it coming but I should have lol happy for y'all

  "Johnny my brothers are not happy that I got married without them there." I sighed.

  "Well we didn't mean to." He said. "I mean..pretty soon we're gonna have to get a divorce or something.."

  "Yeah, we could." I smiled at him, and took his hand. "Or maybe, we could try to make this work? We both admitted that we liked each other."

  "How would we go about that?" He asked.

  "What if we just stayed married, but acted like we were just dating?" I sighed. "I'm being confusing."

  "No I get it. Like we date, and then if we ever wanna get married while we're sober, we can just like..have a ceremony inviting out friends and stuff? We could just get 'married' for them again." He smiled and squeezed my hand.

  "That sounds like a good idea to me." I laughed lightly and wiped my watering eyes. "We better go explain to everyone what happened..and that were like..dating now?"

  Johnny laughed lightly. "Pony, you have been my best friend for eighteen years now and I've loved you twelve of them. Will you please be my boyfriend?"

  "Of course I will Johnny." I laughed with him. "Come on, we should find two bit."
