Ponyboy described Johnny as "smaller than the rest, with a slight build. He has big black eyes in a dark tanned face; his hair is jet-black and heavily greased and combed to the side, but it is so long that it falls in shaggy bangs across his forehead. He always has a nervous, suspicious look in his eyes."Johnny reminds Ponyboy of a little puppy that had been kicked too many times and was lost in a crowd of strangers[2]. His hair is always greasy, and he wears a dark t-shirt with a sky-blue denim jacket and jeans. He has a scar on his left cheek from when he was jumped and beaten severely by a group of Socs, the gash being left by the rings worn by one of the Socs who attacked him. Johnny is very quiet, not getting in the way of the gang very often. This is a result of constantly being neglected and verbally abused by his mother and beaten by his alcoholic father. He is able to hold his own at a rumble, but distances himself from the running and common conflict of being a greaser
Johnny shivered as he tugged on his jacket, running out the front door. His parents were fighting again and he couldn’t take it. He stumbled over to the vacant lot, and lit a cigarette, shivering from the outside cold. He tensed up when he heard someone, his trauma responses.. “s-shit”
