A/N

There's only one reason why I would write a bonus chapter. Because all my readers were devastated that I ended it, So I decided to add this chapy and do it from Cyndy's POV. Hope y'all like it.

Cyndy's POV

I stepped into the quiet house, seeing how everybody else was asleep, or so I thought. But, as soon as I walked into the kitchen, I spotted Ponyboy, sitting at the table, just staring down at his hands. Is he alright? I walked over to him, and sat down in the chair, right by his side.

"Pony?" He turned to me, his eyes filled with sadness. "Pony, what happened?" He sighed before responding.

"Mary" he whispered. I frowned. My niece?

"What about her?"

"She likes Drew" he said. Oh, so that's why he's so upset. I patted his back.

"She may like him, but she LOVES you" I replied. He looked at me again, hope showing in his face.

"She does?" I nodded. A small smile spread across his face. "I'm telling her today, exactly how I feel."

"Go get her, before someone else beats you to it" I encouraged him. He stood up and started towards their bedroom, that used to be ours. "But wait until she wakes up" I quickly added. He nodded.

Mary just walked out the room. What is she doing? I walked out after her, and saw that she made her way towards the front door, where Pony was talking to Sophie, one of his friends. After what seemed like hours, Pony walked inside looking pretty devastated.

"What happened?" He swallowed hard, trying to find the right words to say.

"She... she saw me" he softly said. I sat there, confused at what he was telling me. So? I see you too.

"And?"

"I was holding hands with Sophie" he added. Oh.

"Why were y'all holding hands?"

"Because, she told me that I was like the brother she never had, after she hugged me" he explained. I raised my eyebrows at him. Really? Stuff like that gives most people the wrong signal.

"Well, explain that to her" I said.

"But, she went to the drive in with Drew" he responded.

"No excuses, go follow her" I urged. He sighed.

"Okay, but if she slaps me, it's on you" he joked. I chuckled.

"I'm willing to take that" I said. He smiled at me, before setting off. Man, I hope everything turns out alright. They should be together, they're perfect for each other. I really do hope it all goes in their liking. And, it hasn't been 10 minutes, when Mary comes running in, looking scared out of her mind. I was sitting on Soda, as payback for something he did.

"Pony's in the hospital!" I shot up, my eyes widening with fear. Oh no.

"What?!" Everybody ran out the door, heading straight for our cars. I jumped in mine, taking Soda, Steve, and Tw-Bit. Darry had Johnny and Mary. Oh god. What happened? How? Different questions were going through my head, as we raced to the hospital. When we got there, I found Dallas in the lobby. I ran up to him, wrapping my arms around him.

"Where's Ponyboy?"

"Over here, c'mon" he said, leading the way. The halls echoed our footsteps as we ran to his room. Dallas and I were the first ones to enter, and when we did, everything fell silent. The only sound was of the machine. Mary walked right up to him, tears streaming down her face, just like me. Dallas pulled me to his chest, caressing my back. But, I wasn't the one that needed to be comforted, Mary was. She looked devastated. Heart broken. Torn apart. The guy she liked more than anything else in this world, was laying completely still, on that white bed. She, suddenly, dropped to her knees, and cried. I wanted to go to her, to tell her everything was going to be alright, but how can I? Not even I knew if he's going to be fine.

I buried my face in Dally's chest, and let the tears stream down my face. Why did it have to be Pony? Why? Will he be alright?
