In The Outsiders, Johny Cade is the
smallest and weakest member of the Greasers gang. I would say that timid and caring are
his major character traits.
We can see that he is timid (or
at least nervous) in two places at least. First, in Chapter 1, Pony describes him as
having nervous eyes. Second, in Chapter 2, Pony and Johnny are talking to Cherry and
Marcia. All Johnny can say is "hi," which he says shyly. Then he gets nervous and
tries to just watch the movie.
You can see that he is
caring from this same episode. That is where he stops Dally from harassing Cherry.
This shows he cares about Cherry's feelings.
