Ponyboy accepted Steve only because Steve was Sodapop's best bud. He didn't like Steve because Steve thought Pony was a tagalong. "He didn't like me- he thought I was a tagalong and a kid; Soda always took me with them when they went places if they weren't taking girls, and that bugged Steve."

Steve, who is a Soda's best friend, is initially annoyed by the somewhat nerdy Ponyboy, who he believes is too young, always hanging around and a follower rather than a doer. He resents that Soda is always inviting Pony to go places with them and considers him a pest. Steve sets up numerous activities with Soda which will necessarily exclude Ponyboy. After one such occasion, Ponyboy confesses that sometimes he really hates Steve. Ironically, toward the end of the book, Steve is more accepting of Ponyboy and occasionally hangs out with him.
No. Darry just doesn't want to loose Ponyboy like he lost his parents. He truly really loves Ponyboy.
