Chapter 14.

** please read A/N!! If you find any mistakes, feel free to comment so I can fix.

Shattered.

That was the only word to describe me at that moment. I started crying uncontrollably as Dally begged Johnny to stay.

"Dammit Johnny!" I cry. "Please don't leave me Johnny. Johnny!" Dallas gets up next to me and walks over to the door, beating the wall. I started screaming, my nails digging into my scalp and I fell to my knees.

"It's going to be okay," Pony says, sitting next to me and wrapping his arms around my shoulders. "It's going to be okay."

"No, it's not," I say. We sat there crying for a few minutes until I could finally pull myself together. I wiped my eyes, which felt hot and puffy. "Where's Dally? I need to talk to Dally." I start to get up, but Dally isn't anywhere in sight.

"He left, Rose," Ponyboy whispers. "Come on. Let's go to my house."

I stand up and look over at Johnny's cold body. His eyes are closed, his chest still, and the stench of death surrounds him. I had so many memories with this dead boy that I can't even remember one of them. I kiss Johnny on the head and pull the blanket over his body so he is covered.

Johnny Cade was dead.

We arrive at Pony's house not much later. All the boys are beaten up pretty badly from the rumble. God, I really wanted to punch and beat something right now. Steve lay on the floor with Soda sitting next to him like a loyal golden retriever, Darry was studying his knuckles that were busted from the rumble and I heard Two Bit inside of the kitchen.

He looks up and greets us with a slight smile, but when he sees our broken faces, he asks us what's wrong.

"Johnny's dead," I hear Ponyboy say. Everyone gets up and Two Bit joins us in the living room. "I don't know, he just died. Told me to stay gold."

His last words ring in my ear.

"Dally's gone," Pony says, backing out if the room. "He couldn't take it, he's gonna blow."

"Johnny was the only thing Dallas ever loved," I whisper, staring at the wall. "He's not going to be able to keep breathing."

Pony comes over and hugs me, me leaving my arms limp at my sides but after a minute, my arms wrap around him too. Soda joins us and one by one, the whole gang is holding me.

Two Bit is the first one to let go, grabbing a beer bottle and throwing it against the wall. The glass shattered and fell to the ground. He grabs his head and screams. Falling to the ground, his tears overflow in his eyes and they fall from his cheeks.

"Dammit!" he cries. "Johnny!" He cries loudly, sending a shiver down my spine. I go over to him and he cries into my shoulder. I've never seen Two Bit really cry before and seeing his tears broke me even more.

Suddenly the phone rang. Steve grabbed it.

Two Bit's sobs blocked me from hearing the conversation. The phone clicked off.

"That was Dally. The cops are after him, we got to hide him!" Darry announces and sprints out the door, me and the gang following him. Two Bit stopped crying and anger consumed his face.

We ran through the night, none of us except Darry knowing where we were running to. The air was cool outside and we heard sirens in the distance, causing us to run even faster.

Then I saw him.

"You'll never get me alive!" Gunshots.

"No! Stop! No!" us greasers cry. "He's just a kid! It's not loaded!" I saw Dally running, being an idiot by getting back up after being shot. After about the third shot, he didn't get back up. We all ran over to him.

"Aster.." he whispered, then collapsing to the ground.

"You stupid idiot! You stupid freak!" Darry screamed at the cops.

"Grab him guys! Put him in my truck! Take him to the hospital!" Two Bit barked, picking up Dally's head and shoulders. The rest of the gang hauled him up and I was about to, but a voice stopped me.

"Aster! What are you doing here?" Did I ever mention my dad was a cop? He was the one who shot the first bullet and the last.

"You fucking asshole. Just go to hell!" I scream at him. I run up and go to the Curtis's house, where Two Bit's truck was parked. The keys hang from the rear view mirror along with a Mickey Mouse. I start the car and put my foot on the gas. In about fifteen seconds, I pull up next to the gang with dying Dally.

They put him in the backseat carefully and Darry and Two Bit join me in the front while Steve and Sodapop ride in the open trunk.

"You'll be okay, Dally. I promise."

Dallas was still unconscious as he lay in his hospital bed he had a few hours ago. He was still breathing but had slot of several internal injuries.

After we got Dallas taken care of in the ER, I checked Johnny's room out of curiosity to see if he was still there and just waiting for us to visit him. To make him laugh. His bed was empty and they didn't tell me what happened to his body.

Everyone had "alone time" with Dally in case he didn't make it. I was last. Ponyboy was at home with his brothers, he passed out when Dally did. Darry and Soda stayed with us until we arrived at the hospital and then drove home to tend to Pony . Steve and Two Bit left his room with their heads low as I passed them.

"Hey Dallas," I say, sitting on the chair next to his bed. "How ya doing?" He didn't reply, but his breathing was all I needed. "The gang is really worried. Scared us to death. When you wake up, I'm going to beat you for that stunt that you pulled. What were you thinking? I got that you were really upset about Johnny but he'd want you to stay alive. Stay alive for me at least. And even if you do die, at least you got what you wanted." I sniffle.

"We never picked out a name for our baby. I never got that chance to ask you, and hopefully I'll get to." I give him a kiss on his forehead and start to leave the room.

"Daisy, for a girl." I stop cold in my tracks and rush back to the bed.

"You little ass! You scared us to death!" I laugh while crying at the same time. I kiss him and call for the nurse.

"Or Duffy for a girl."

"That will never happen." He chuckles and I smile.
