Two-Bit took a tissue from the box by my bedside. (A/N: sorry, *Rockelle's POV*) He dried my eyes softly. "You okay now, Babe?" he asked.
"Yeah. Thanks," I sniffled.
Just then Dally walked in. "Hey, Dally," we all said together. "Dally?" we had to do a double take.
"Shhhh!" Dallas said as he shut the door. "Of course its me! Who'd you expect; Casper the friendly ghost? I just came from Johnny's room. The doc wouldnt tell me how Johnny and Rocky were. So how are you, Rocky?"
"I really dont want to talk about it, Dally," I said weakly.
"C'mere, Dallas. We'll tell you," Rina said. Dally walked over to Rina, Soda, Darry, and Pony. They all explained to him. Once they were done, Dallas came to my side. He looked as if he were afraid to touch me now. I hated it. People kept looking at me as if I were about to shatter into a million pieces if they touched me.
"I'm not gonna break, ya know," I said.
"Right...." Dallas trailed off and slowly he placed his hand on mine, being ever so careful not to touch the IV. "We're gonna take care of you. You know that, right?"
"Yeah, I know. Thanks."
Dallas looked at me for a moment then said, "I gotta go. But call my room if you wanna talk okay, Rocky?" "Okay."
"Sodapop, I got a favor to ask."
"What is it?" Soda said, looking a little nervous.
"Well I almost got caught when I went to visit Johnny and I need you to be a distraction for me so I can get back there unseen. The nurses are suspecting I'm not in my room."
"Well, you arent," I said.
Dallas seemed to ignore my statement and looked at Soda.
"All right. Fine. I'll be a distraction."
"Thanks. Bye, Little One." Dallas squeezed my hand gently and went to the door.
"Get some rest, Rocky," Soda said. "I'll talk to you later."
"Okay. Bye," I said.
Soda and Dallas walked out the door. Rina, Darry, and Pony left, too. Two- Bit pulled up a chair next to my bed. "I'm gonna stay."
"Thanks. I hope they'll let you stay."
"They will."
An hour later Jen came in. "It's past visiting hours, kid," she said to aTwo-Bit.
"I'm her boyfriend. Just let me stay."
"I dunno..."
"She doesnt like to be alone. Please lemme stay." He did his puppy dog face that I could never resist. Jen was just like me in this case.
"Fine, you can stay. Rockelle, you get to go home tomorrow."
"Cool," I said.
"I'm gonna go call your stepdad to pick you up."
My heart stopped. I couldnt find the words I wanted to use. But that didnt matter 'cause my mouth was so dry.
"No need for that. I'll take her home," Two-Bit said.
"All right then. I'll just call him to tell him you're here."
"Please, no!" I managed to say.
"Why not?"
"He.....he...he left me for dead before and the bruise on my cheek is from him. Dont call him. Please," I begged. I felt so pathetic.
"Okay. Okay. I wont call him."
I sighed with relief. "Thanks, Jen."
"No problem, kid." She smiled and walked out the door.
"Thanks for staying with me Two-Bit," I said.
"Its okay. Really. Just go to sleep. I'll be here when you wake up."
"'Kay," I whispered. I slowly drifted into a dreamless slumber.
Please review and tell me what you think! Bye for now! Love, Rockelle
