Danny had woken up again when he was at the hospital. He saw his dad talking to a doctor. It was quick, and the doctor stepped out of the room.
"Dad."
Trix turned around and smiled.
"You okay son?"
"Yeah. I don't have a headache anymore."
It was quiet then. I guess they both never knew how worried they both were. Danny spoke up first.
"Dad. I'm sorry for the way I acted. It was stupid."
Trix looked at his son. They both hoped it wouldn't become some emotional moment.
"Don't blame all of it to yourself. I was acting crazy too. I just didn't want you to end up like I did."
"It's okay."
They both smiled. Trix then spoke up again.
"C'mon. The doctor said you could leave when you woke up. Can you walk?"
"Let's see."
Danny got up and swaggered a little bit but kept his balance. Trix helped him a little bit.
"I'll help you a little. Let's get to the lobby."
Trix helped Danny into the hallway and into the lobby. When they reached the lobby. A cop was talking with this one lady in an office dress. Everyone was in the lobby and was real happy to see that Danny was okay. But Danny just wanted to know what the cop and lady were talking about. He sat down beside Jack.
"What's going on?" he asked.
"Alex. He might have to be put in a boy's home. They can't figure out where his dad is."
"A boy's home! Where is he now?"
"He's at the home now. The cop was just making sure he has no other guardians."
Crud thought Danny. Alex would hate to be in a boy's home. Suddenly Steve walked through the door. There was another lady behind him. They went over to the cop and lady and talked more. Finally, the cop and two ladies left. Danny hobbled over to Steve.
"Where is Alex gonna end up?"
Steve just smiled.
"Y'know. All of the other people in the gang have kids running around. I wanted that."
Danny smiled. He knew exactly what Steve meant. He was gonna adopt Alex. Alex would get to stay in Tulsa.
"Thanks Steve," said Danny.
"No problem kid."
Maria then walked up to Danny and asked,
"Can I speak to you alone?"
"Uhh…sure."
They walked outside the lobby and Maria sighed.
"Danny. I hope you're not mad at me for telling. I was just so worried about you. And-"
"Hey, hey. Don't worry about it. It's actually a good thing you told. I probably would have ended up worse looking."
Maria laughed. They looked at each other for a while. Then they kissed. That was the longest kiss they had ever shared.
…
'It was a week later and Danny was sitting on the porch of the Curtis house. Alex and him had stayed there for the night. They were working on a project with Rachel. It was real early in the morning. He wanted to see the sun come up. He saw it. It was just like his uncle described it. Gold.
"Hey Danny."
Danny turned around and saw his best friend.
"Hey Alex."
"What are you doing up so early," said Alex sitting beside Danny.
"Just wanted to see the sunset. Wanted to know how good looking it was."
"Well, I missed it. How was it?"
"Gold."
"C'mon. You've got to give me more detail than that."
"Then you shouldn't have missed it."
"You're mean you know that."
Danny just laughed. Alex spoke up again.
"I'm gonna go inside. Your uncle is already making chocolate cake. I love this family."
Danny just smiled. He loved this family too. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a harmonica he had just bought. He then played the harmonica part of the song "So Gold".
It made his vision of the sunset more beautiful. Everything wasn't okay now. It was better.
Well, that's it. Hope you enjoyed it. Well this is the time, I will tell you about upcoming events. I guess is that the next one will be the fic about the kid who wonders through Tulsa. Sorry if you wanted the other one, but I think this one will be better. Plus, I'll do something different. I think I might have Dallas and Johnny alive in this story. Y'know, so it'll take place before their deaths. Also there will be more Trix fics but I'm saving those for later. Also expect a fic with the characters of That Was Then, This is Now. I'll also do a song fic. So be on the look out for these. Catch you later!
