I guess I could try and stay awake for Johnny.

"Yeah okay Johnny, I'll stay away. Just for you." I smiled the best I could being in the condition that I was in.

"Thanks Pony." He smiled.

"Yeah. So what'd you wanna talk about so bad?"

"I wanna know why you saved me." He demanded.

"You have it rough enough. You don't deserve to be put in the hospital, you're so kind and sweet I would never let that happen to you Johnnycakes."

"Maybe you should have. I'm not worth it Pony you have a family who loves you deeply I have, well I have a house full of fights."

"Don't talk like that Johnny we couldn't get along without ya."

"Ponyboy do you not remember what I told you in the lot? That I wanted to kill myself. I shouldn't be here! I should be the one in the hospital not you!"

Johnny never yelled at me like this so this was scary.

"Johnny I-"

I was cut off cause the doctor came in and told Johnny he had to leave.

"Bye Ponyboy." He said before the door closed.

I thought that Johnny wanted this, I saved his life and this is how he repays me, maybe I shouldn't worry about it though because what's done is done now.
