Summary
Pony looked down at the shaving kit waiting on the counter in front of him. As he ran a finger over his dad’s initials, he felt a little thrill — he was dancing on the razor’s edge between boyhood and manhood, about to take the leap into this next phase of life. The thought excited and terrified him in equal measure.
Darry teaches Ponyboy how to shave.

Summary
"I guess you leave me no choice."
Darry grabbed his ankles and yanked, and that sure woke him up. With a yelp, Pony scrambled for his bed frame and latched onto it like a lifeline. "Jeez, Darry, quit it! You're bein' nuts!"
Darry kept pulling him, looking damn near close to wrestling him off of the mattress. "Hey, I asked nicely! Ain't my fault you won't listen!"
"You haven't asked nice for nothin' a day in your life! Cut it out!"
"Yeah, cause you're challengin' my authority!" With one final pull, Darry yanked him right off the bed like he weighed as much as a feather. Pony scrambled, feeling oddly similar to a small animal as Darry shook him by his ankles and held him upside down. "You keep this up and I'm groundin' you on the spot."
"You can't do that!"
"Who says I can't? I'm in charge and whatever I say goes. You wanna start gettin' ready for school, or do you wanna be grounded for a month?"
Or: Pony refuses to get up for school. Darry makes him. Tears and comfort ensue shortly after.

Summary
And even as much as it annoys him to admit, Pony wishes this Darry - the kind, gentle one in the sunsoaked truck rumbling down Peoria Ave - could be bottled up forever. He selfishly just wants this moment to last forever. He wants to spend time with this Darry. Watch TV with him, do homework with him, play solitaire with him, toss a football around with him.
Ponyboy is used to hearing all ends of arguing from his older brother but when he and Johnny walk themselves right into trouble, Darry doesn’t chew them out like he should. Like he normally would have. Something ain’t right, and Pony’s got to figure out what.

Summary
"'You seem to want that 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙚!' Pony's hand came harder down onto the tomatoes, furiously cutting in choppy, frustrated squares. 'Feels like all I ever do is 𝙘𝙖𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙗𝙡𝙚𝙢𝙨! 𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙄 𝙙𝙤! 𝘼𝙡𝙡 𝙄 𝙙𝙤 𝙞𝙨—'
A hot pain stabbed through his finger. With a sharp yelp, Pony scrambled, the knife flying out of his hand and clattering against the table with a clash. The tomato fell off the cutting board. He ripped his hand away and held it tightly against his chest. 'Damn it, 𝙤𝙬—'
With a gasp of pain, he looked at his hand. At first, it didn't bleed. But Pony saw the large gash in his finger that was deep, deep, deep from the knife.
In a split second, blood bloomed into the cut, bled over his skin, and ran down his hand in thick, red drops."
Or: Darry and Pony get into a fight as they make dinner together. Pony (like a dunce) accidentally cuts his finger. Darry, obviously, is worried sick.

Summary
"And then, because he couldn't help it—because he had to know—Darry asked, 'You ever feel like you've done something before? Like…you've done this before?'
'No,' Soda said slowly. He'd started rubbing circles on Ponyboy's back, but now he paused. 'I don't—what're you talkin' about?'"
Or, Darry knows he hasn't been a perfect guardian (far from it). He's got plenty of regrets. So when he finds himself thrown backwards in time, reliving all his past mistakes, he realizes this might be his chance to fix things once and for all.

Summary
October, 1961
Coach says something about talking to Darry's parents, but all Darry can focus on is how close Paul is sitting to him, the way he gently grabs Darry's chin to make sure his eyes are alright, and how he takes Darry's hand and holds it up in victory when he finally stands back up.
________________________________
July, 1964
Darry slams his hand down on the dashboard, tears running down his face. He rakes a hand through his hair before pressing his head against the steering wheel. He wants to scream, to go back to Paul and deck him, to find the part of him that still wants to kiss Paul and bury it.But he can’t. He can’t do any of it.
He sits in the parking lot until the sun sets before wiping his face and driving home.
