In Sickness and In Health

Chapter 26

Pony's POV

We make ham and cheese sandwiches and sit down on the floor in front of the TV. Soda walks in and says, "Well, he ate a little more after you guys left- and he drank some water too. Oh, and I called the doctor and he said he'll be by tomorrow morning." Soda smiles lightly and nods. "Your sandwich is on the table, Soda," I tell him. His smile grows as he grabs his sandwich and comes to sit next to me. The rest of the afternoon is pretty peaceful. Steve and Soda get into a long conversation debating about the best kind of car to race in. I start my math homework that's due Monday while Two-Bit talks to me about just everything from football games to the Amazon Jungle. "Could you imagine living there. Pony? I mean there'd be these thick vines everywhere and jaguars and lions just roaming about and monkeys crawling around," Two-Bit imagines out loud. "Sounds pretty cool," I say figuring out what the missing angle is on this isosceles triangle. Two-Bit nods enthusiastically. I look up to see Darry stumbling out of his room and running to the bathroom shutting the door behind him. "Pony, go get his glass of water of his room," Soda tells me urgently as he goes into the bathroom after Darry.

A/N Sorry I haven't posted in like forever. I've just been kinda busy with school and work. I appreciate your patience and how much you all like this. Thank you
