TW: Brief mentions of death and heartbreak
I think that Ponyboy wouldn't really care when they started dating. I hc that he got with Curly after the events of the book so he wasn't really focused.
Cherry and Soda wouldn't date until a year after what happened. She was still trying to figure out how she felt about Bob's death and Soda was still upset about Sandy. They started dating because I feel like they always had crushes on each other but they started to have those feelings again when they were both single.
They kept things very low-key. They weren't super open about their relationship in the beginning but they would hang out after work/school, they would go on mini dates and just talk and gossip. They didn't really tell anyone until like 4-5 months after dating when things felt more serious.
Darry was kind of worried for Soda since he witnessed him become so heartbroken about Sandy and he didn't want him to go through that again but he witnessed Sodapop became even more happy with Cherry.
The rest of the gang was very suspicious of it. Cherry used to date the guy that one of their best friend's had killed after being jumped by said guy. It felt awkward since the class was still going on but Soda didn't totally care about their opinions.
At this point in her life, I think that Cherry would just be super done with caring what other people thought or the class war since it had gotten so bad that led to 3 deaths in less than 2 weeks. A few of her other friends didn't like it, but she didn't care. She was happy and felt like that was all that mattered.
Marcia was super happy for Cherry. I feel like she never really liked Bob that much at all she was happy that her best friend was happy.
I'm sorry that these were super short but send me anymore asks y'all have about The Outsiders
