Ross

I believe the answer is:

rosie

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'this girl' is the definition.
(girl's name)

'sound in the pink' is the wordplay.
'sound' becomes 'i' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'in the' indicates putting letters inside.
'pink' becomes 'rose' (colour).
'i' placed within 'rose' is 'ROSIE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rosie that I've seen before include "Cider with --, novel" , "Cider with - (Laurie Lee)" , "Female" , "riveting woman in 40s?" , "cider drinker sounds red" .)
