    Summary

    " Mav furrows his brow and slowly lowers his bottle from his mouth, eyes still trained on Bob’s nose and not his eyes, and asks, “Yeah, my foster mother when I was thirteen was a mechanic, she’s the reason I can repair an entire engine block despite the fact that I’ve never owned a car, how did you know that?”

    Bob inhales slowly and then says, “Have you ever heard the term ‘autism’ before, Mav?”

    The whole table goes silent, all realizing where he’s going with this. You could hear a pin drop amidst the quiet. Mav furrows his eyebrows together even tighter, still not meeting Bob’s eyes, and he answers, “Maybe?” "

    --------------

    aka, five times someone noticed that there is something different about Maverick and then the one time it all suddenly made sense.

    "That's a cool car," Soda stated, and then Steve looked at him.

    "It's my only one." The little boy mumbled, tightening his grip on it.”

    Summary

    Steve moving into the Curtis house was a dream come true. Getting his things to actually do it was turning into a nightmare.

    ---

    "Ever since Pony’s jumping, and especially since Darry spent those big bucks on the boys room in the Curtis house, Steve hadn’t seen any reason to go to the house except for clothes on the occasion. He had a home, and that home had a nice comfy bed, the stupidest dinosaur bed sheets he, Dally and Two-Bit could find, a dresser they literally wrote his name on like they’re children, and the best friends he could ask for. The only thing missing was some important things he needed from his room and he’d be all set.

    One problem. It’s in his room."

    Summary

    Steve is super gay. A really big fairy. How this didn't occur to him earlier is simply baffling. The worst part? He didn't have to just worry about people finding about his fat (and frankly humiliating) crush on Sodapop, he's half Mexican, an "alien." So if he could at least keep one of his secrets secret, he's jolly.

    What sucks even more than that? He's always listening to those lovey-dovey Spanish songs and thinking of Soda. Of his mother, too, which kinda delutes the romance of it.

    So it's no shock when those cats are let jump straight out of the bag, with less people leaving his than he expected...
