Summary
He hasn’t called home in forever, actually, not since sometime last month in November.
It was a month ago, the night of his second calc midterm, right in the dead middle of November. All he sort of vaguely remembers is that he was a mess of babbling tears over the line with Darry who was trying to ease him down from all his panicking that he was going to fail his test the next morning. Darry had reassured him over and over he was a smart boy, that he was sure Ponyboy studied real well, that the answers would come to him in the moment like they always used to. Pony really did let himself believe Darry’s affirmations ‘cause they let him pass out at his rickety kitchen table from exhaustion.
Turns out he got a 53.
So he didn’t call back home after that.
—
or, ponyboy's failed out of his first semester at uni and he gets suspended from what was meant to be a fresh start at northeastern — maybe fresh starts just aren't meant for himSeries
- Part 7 of my outsiders canon :p
