Knowing Your End

Six

"You can go see him now." A nurse said as she peeped her head outside his door. "Please be quiet, since he is sharing a room with someone else."

We all paced inside, with me in the front. The first person we saw was a man, maybe thirty, who was out cold, while someone else talked quietly with a doctor about his shattered knee. On the other side of the curtain we saw Dallas, whose first comment was that the nurses weren't letting him smoke inside.

"Gee, you guys look like you've seen a ghost. I don't look that bad, do I?" He laughed.

"Aren't you suppose to be wearing one of those sexy hospital gowns?" Two-Bit asked.

"I threw it away, man those things are uncomfortable." He rolled his eyes, then looked at me, "You're more crazy than I thought you were." He pointed out. I laughed falsely, telling him everything, fiddling with my thumbs the entire time.

"You're kidding."

"I'm not, Dal."

"Stop messing with me."

"She's not." Ponyboy argued.

"Who are you then, Dorothy from 'The Wizard Of Oz'?"

"What are you talking about?" I said, concerned.

He stood for a moment, biting his bottom lip. Then he cursed under his breath. "So we're not even real?"

I looked downwards, "Not in that other... universe.... But here you are. You guys know you're the most important people to me, right?" I looked at them all. "

Ponyboy suddenly hugged me, then everyone else, except Dally, who still lay naked in his bed. "I love you guys." I told them all, and I meant it, they were my family. They were all I've got.
