"hello, uh were the moretti's and we moved to Tulsa a few years ago from New York" - Hugo
"we don't take charity, were fine on our own, yes we are Italian, and i can say for the both of us we fuckin' hate those soc's" - Maria
face claims : Emmy Rossum (Fiona Gallagher) & young! Jospeh Perrino ( Lorenzo carcaterra : sleepers)
Ponyboy Curtis ::
"i've seen Maria around, she scares me a bit actually, one times she was yelling at some guy working in a corner store cause .. uh i think i heard her say he was staring somewhere to long and too low.. and i'm guessing that ain't' too good if u put the piece together. Another time i saw her hauling Hugo down the road by his hair and man she looked pissed.. like Dallas when some soc thinks they own the place. i haven't actually met Hugo, so i cant say much i just see him around town hes a normal kid like me a think? hangs with his own friends and i've heard Steve talking about him being around the DX so i'm guessing he helps out working there?"

Hugo was currently working at the DX under a car while music played from a radio near by. He poked his tongue out with focusing on the metal he was trying to repair. “Stupid .. shit” he muttered as he couldnt unscrew a tight bolt. He heard someone walk in the DX but didn’t mind it knowing Steve or soda would handle it.
-@morettisiblings
He heard Soda greet the potential customer, and the two talked for a while. Steve eventually joined in, and after a while he heard footsteps enter the garage.
“MORETTI!” Steve called from the entrance. “You’ve got a customer.”
Steve pulled Hugo’s rolling cart he’d been laying on with his foot, looking down at him. “Me and Soda are busy, so you’re on own with this one. Think you can handle it?”
The other boy with Steve was a boy around their age, with light brown hair that almost looked blonde and brown eyes. He smiled down at Hugo, friendly and genuine, and something about his smile made his stomach twist.. Not good.
Hugo hit his head as Steve pulled him out from under the car "fuck, jeez Steve!" He snapped his hand holding the head where he hit it before he looked up from where he still sat on rolling cart.
Hugo froze for a second seeming the young grease but quickly snapped out of it. "Yeah man, what's ur you need?" Hug asked simply.
he stood and grabbed a rag wiping the grease off his hands although it didn't do much. "You wanna buy a car part?" He shrugged while grabbing the tool box he was using before and putting it on the bench. He finally turned leaning on the car in the works and facing the greaser looking at him longer than he ment to.
The boy shoved his hands in his pockets and leaned against a tool box. “I was wondering if you could tune up my car a bit? I’ve got a race coming up, and I just wanna make sure I’m not gonna have any problems.”
Hugo cleared his throat and nodded “yeah, yeah is it uh parked outside?” He questioned as they both walked out the garage door to the car. “Sweet ride” Hugo smiled as I looked at the car “so u just want me to check the engine and tires?.. I can check the brakes to” he nodded already lifting up the hood.
He leaned against the side of the car. “Yeah, I just don’t want it to give out on me in the middle of the race.”
After a moment of silence, the boy seemed to realize something. “Aw damn, what’s wrong with me? I never even told you my name!” He extended a hand for Hugo to shake. “I’m Griffin. Griffin Conroy.” He gave a slight shrug. “Most people just call me Griff, though.”
Hugo raised his brows but after a second he shook the boys hand. “Hugo Moretti” he nodded before turning back to the car and checking the engine “shoulda known you was griffin..” Hugo laughed slightly “Steve and soda always talk about drag races and you were mentioned” he nodded as he continued working on the car.
“how old are ya?” Hugo asked simply making conversation.
”same” he nodded as he closed the hood of the car and started testing the tires and how much air was in them. “Yeah except their pissed you alway beat them” he laughed standing back up from where he was kneeling. “Ur all good” he nodded to the car.
Griff chuckled again. “Well, you can tell them they aren’t so bad themselves. I’ve actually worked up quite the sweat trying to keep up.” While it was well known that Griff was one of the best drag racers in Tulsa, he still had reputation for being shockingly modest. It was easy to understand his popularity.
”yeah sure” Hugo said in an amused tone knowing griffin beat them easy. “They’re good but not that good” he smirked while fiddling with the St Mary necklace around his neck. “I ain’t seen you round town much?” Hugo questioned “or maybe I’m just blind, thought I guess it’s the first time we are meeting?” He shrugged.
“Oh I live on the East side. I just don’t really hang out in town a lot. All my friends live on the same street.” What he left out was that he lived in one of the non-white parts of Tulsa with his mother, where all of the ethnic families lived. It was just easier hanging out with the other Mexican kids in town than it was to feel like he was walking on eggshells around everyone else.
”fair enough” Hugo nodded while closing uo the tool box he used and picked it up. “Uh.. yer’ car is fine, brakes are good” he stated while testing a tire one last time. “Don’t doubt you will win, from what I’m hearin ya real good” he nodded to the car.
“come by again if you need somethin’” he shrugged while starting to walk back inside. But he had a twisting feeling in his stomach when they both made eye contact while talking.
”hm?” He turned back around with his brows raised as he watched griffin walk towards him. His thumbs hooks in his jeans, watching another car drive into the DX but soda was already on it. “Yea, man?” He asked waiting to see what he has to say.
“Would you wanna come tonight? To the race, I mean.” Griff asked, his hands shoved into his pockets. “They’re usually pretty fun, and it’d be nice knowing I’ve got another fan in the crowd.”
Hugo paused for a second before nodding “yeah sure, I’ll bring soda and Steve down .. their still fixing their car so I don’t think their racin’” he shrugged “see you later man” he gave a simple smile, he was definetly exited.

Steve pulled Hugo’s rolling cart he’d been laying on with his foot, looking down at him. “Me and Soda are busy, so you’re on own with this one. Think you can handle it?”
The other boy with Steve was a boy around their age, with light brown hair that almost looked blonde and brown eyes. He smiled down at Hugo, friendly and genuine, and something about his smile made his stomach twist.. Not good.
Hugo hit his head as Steve pulled him out from under the car "fuck, jeez Steve!" He snapped his hand holding the head where he hit it before he looked up from where he still sat on rolling cart.
Hugo froze for a second seeming the young grease but quickly snapped out of it. "Yeah man, what's ur you need?" Hug asked simply.
he stood and grabbed a rag wiping the grease off his hands although it didn't do much. "You wanna buy a car part?" He shrugged while grabbing the tool box he was using before and putting it on the bench. He finally turned leaning on the car in the works and facing the greaser looking at him longer than he ment to.
Hugo was lounging in his living room while watching the lousy box they called a tv, some baseball game playing. Maria was on the phone to one of her friends in the kitchen. After a second the screen door opened and in walked 2 people me and Maria both knew very well.

” hey man, what’s up?” i said as i went to go get Hugo, hearing Maria talking in the other room. “I was out runnin some errands with Char, figured we’d stop by for a bit”
”oh hey” he nodded while glancing at Dez then the tv again. “That’s chill.. come watch the baseball” he muttered while eating popcorn from a bowl. “Don’t mind Maria shes talking with someone I dunno who..” he shrugged.
hugo just laughed in response before he stood up cheering at a home run. “Yes!” He cheer begore quieting down and facing Dez again properly this time and waving to Char “hey char” he nodded.
Charlotte waved to Hugo slightly and i could see the slight confusion in her eyes, like she was trying to make a connection. “you remember Hugo, right Char? i know it’s been a bit. he used to hang out at the house with us a lot before dad died.”
i looked at who was playing and made my assumptions about who would win. i always wanted to play baseball, maybe i’ll get into it soon. “who ya rootin for man?”
”dodgers” he smiled and sat back down watching the game again “sit” he nodded and watched the screen. Maria walked into the living room drinking a beer now off the phone “oh hey Dez” she nodded “Hugo! Shoes off the coffee table!” She snapped and sat down on the couch.
”Hey Ria, hows it going lately?” i asked as i scooched over slightly, making some more room on the couch. “dodgers aint a bad team, they got potential and all”
”getting by” Maria stated simple as she relaxed I to the couch more and glanced at the tv. “Woah, dodgers are the best team out there man!” Hugo shot back while pointing at the tv and rubbing his eyes to see the screen better.
“Hugo sit back ur gonna get square eyes” Maria muttered while lighting a cigarette. “I’ll lean back when u quit smokin” he shot back not moving.

Nathan and Hugo had been hanging around together a bit more lately after talking 2 weeks ago. right now they were outside some cheep diner,
“Those soc’s even worse at school all the time?” Hugo asked simply while chewing on a toothpick and watching a group of girls walk past with a small smile.
-@morettisiblings
"It's not worse, at least I don't think so, but still bad. I mostly get ignored, but when they do notice me, it's... not great, but nothing I can't handle. None of them want to talk to me, but it's not like I want to talk to them either."
”yeah man” Hugo nodded while chewing on a piece of gum and chucking a small loose rock at a car driving past. “You should do something big.. like go smash up one of them rich kids cars” Hugo laughed.
"Oh my goodness, that would be hilarious. They'd beat my ass for that.." He glanced around. No rich kid cars here, but they wouldn't come to a place like this. "It would be fun though."
”I’ll do it” Hugo smirked while standing up and brushing off his jeans “nah.. aint worth it. Anyways let’s go do somethin’” he shrugged and started walking down the street expecting Nathan to follow.

”hey webs!” Hugo called as he caught up to Dez who was walking pretty fast down the street. “Why’s you walkin’ so fast huh?” Hugo asked while his hands were shoved in his jeans
-@morettisiblings
”gotta get home quick, i think my sister’s gonna burn the house down with her baking or somethin, Elisha had to go somewhere this morning so Char decided to bake and just called saying it smells like somethin’s burnin… i had to leave work early man”
”you sound busy” he joked while trying to keep up “I’m sure ur sisters fine?.. like what’s the worst that could happen” he shrugged while following Dez. “I’ll tag along.. ain't got nothin else to do? And I mean a burning house could be a crazy story for my kids in the future man” he laughed awkwardly
” she could burn my house down man. and i really don’t need that right now, i just paid the bills…” i kicked a rock as i was walking “but yeah, you can come along… might be better if it does start burning anyways, then we can at least put it out quicker”
“Your stressing like Maria’ chill out its fine” Hugo snorted as the rounded the block and made it to Dez’s place, both walking inside .. just a bit of black smoke coming from the kitchen but no real big fire. Hugo got distracted half way as Dez rushed in, Hugo was in the living room looking at photos uo around the place.
”motherfu— CHARLOTTE WEBER.” i screamed as i rushed in to turn the oven off and take the burning cookies out of the oven. two with small flames near them.
“dammit how many times have i said not to bake if no ones here…” i opened the kitchen window and started fanning smoke out, “you wanna keep tellin me to chill now Hugo?” i shouted around the corner
Hugo rounded the corner after getting distracted and came into the kitchen searching the back of hsi neck .. “oh jeez..” he scrunched his face up at the sight. “Hey it could have been way worse?” He stated.
”mhm yeah my house coulda burnt down. we were already at the start of the process for that apparently though… im gonna have to start locking the oven when i’m not home.” i tossed the object i was using to fan the smoke to the side, making my way towards my room. when i was passing Char’s room i knocked on the door
“hey, just letting you know i’m not mad or anything, just frustrated really. next time wait till someone’s home before you decide to do this please.” i said to Char before walking into my room and flopping face first onto my bed before rolling onto my back, motioning Hugo to come in.
“you can come in ya know. my rooms not like diseased or anything.”
((sorry i lowkey only just responded, i looked at the activity earlier and only just remembered i never responded to this rp😭🙏)
”wouldn’t put it past ya… when’s the last time you washed them sheets?” He joked while walking in the room and sitting at his desk chair. “Cozy” Hugo laughed while spinning on the chair and looking around. “How olds ya sister again?” Hug asked simply while rummaging through things on his desk.
”damn do you really think that lowly of me? i washed ‘em on Sunday.” i teased while grabbing my pajama pants, “you care if i put my pajamas on and just chill?”
“she’s 9, her 10th birthday’s in a few months though so she ain’t gonna be 9 much longer”
((theory that Hugo and Dez could be like childhood or long-term friends??? maybe like before Dez transitioned and stuff which is why he feels comfortable being able to wear his pajamas (which basically just consist of pajama pants) and that Dez js wasnt allowed to have friends inside after his dad died so it looks different (hence why Hugo as looking around maybe?) ))
”it’s chill” he shrugged while crossing his arms and leaning back lazily in the chair, the sun was setting anyways, the room filled with a low glow. “Maria is just old..” Hugo laughed slightly. “I think I own like one pair of pjs and I’ve out grown em’ I just sleep in clothes or boxers” he shrugged.
((yes that is legit amazing I was thinking they were childhood friends!! They can like say anything and not judge each other))
i switched my shorts out for a pair of faded plaid pajama pants, something i had gotten for my birthday or Christmas or some celebration quite some time ago, and just shrugged my shirt off, tossing it to the bin i dedicated as my hamper. I’d known Hugo for so long now i didn’t care what he saw, he’s been there through it all so why should i care if he sees my scars from surgery, tattoos , or scars i’ve gained along the way? i walked back over to my bed and fell back into it.
“yeah, she’s just grown up i guess now, lot more serious than she used ta be but i guess we all are…” i looked over towards the window for a moment, thinking about when we were younger and didn’t have a concern about the stupid class divides or having to worry about how we would be able to pay for everything to survive. “honestly i only have most of these pajama bottoms because i stole ‘em or Elisha got them cs she wanted to match or somethin i dunno man. before that i was sleeping in whatever i had or whatever i could find from my dad’s old clothes”
”fair enough..” he nodded while grabbing the pack of gum in his pocket and putting a piece in his mouth begore he chucked the pack to Dez so he could have some. “Once Maria gets a boyfriend she might be happier ..” he muttered “but she always snaps and scares guys away” he laughed slightly as he spun on the chair still.
“she had a boyfriend in New York called Lorenzo, and everyone called him “shakes” he was real cool” he nodded while talking mindlessly as he sat in the chair. “You know anyone we could set up with Maria?”
”thanks…” i muttered as i took a piece of gum and threw the pack back to him. “sounds like her.. she’ll find the right guy though.”
“why the fuck did they call him shakes” i asked extremely confused, “he do snow and get shakey all the time?” i thought for a few moments on Hugo’s last question, going over people i’ve seen around town. “hey. theres this guy i used to see at Buck’s when i would go there… looked like he was in the army or marines or some shit… he might be able to handle her, they get trained for that or somethin. i could start stoppin by again to see if he still goes there if you want.”
((lwk i dont actually know of anyone like this character i js feel like its something Dez would say, i thought abt making another character that i could offer up but im gonna be so fr i have 3 blogs rn and its so confusing sometimes i feel like if i made another i would lose my marbles 😞))
”I dunno we just called him shakes it was a whole thing” he shrugged “and I dunno if she would date a marine .. she would probabily steal his gun and shoot someone when she’s angry. That would be me” Hugo muttered while grabbing a baseball from the desk and throwing it up then catching it.
“But still go past bucks and check if he’s there or if there is anyone else that would suit her.” Hugo nodded while catching the baseball again. Then throwing it at Dez for him to catch while he had a grin plastered on his face.
((Ooc :: it’s Alg don’t stress it! If u have more oc’s u want to have a blog u could just make one that’s for all of them so it’s not all individual? But just an idea!))
” youre probably right… maybe we shouldn’t set her up with him. i can go by but i dunno who would suit her round here man…” i barely caught the ball thrown at me. “you tryna kill me with this thing or somethin?” i joked before throwing it back to him
Hugo just smiled and caught the ball again. “I should get home” he muttered while standing up from the chair and stretching. “Maybe when we go up to New York to visit my folks she might have a thing with Lorenzo again” he smirked while walking to the door “cya late man.. u can come by with Char anytime doors open” he shrugged and walked down the hallway leaving.
”hey webs!” Hugo called as he caught up to Dez who was walking pretty fast down the street. “Why’s you walkin’ so fast huh?” Hugo asked while his hands were shoved in his jeans
