Thanks to all of you who have reviewed so far. I finally hit the 50 review mark! You don't know how happy that makes me. Thank you especially to Curtisbrothersfan and Twilight of Fate for catching my grammar error. Sorry about that I guess I get to typing and don't think. Thanks a lot! Now let's get on with chapter 12.

Chapter 12

It had been two weeks since Ponyboy had stepped into Dr. Heart's office and he's starting to get the feeling of what it's like to be happy again. He was glad that the evil Dr. Sharp was arrested he didn't need to be helping patients anyway. Dr. Heart was way different she was calm and patient. When he went to see her twice a week she would always greet him with a big smile and ask him how he was. Through the session he would tell her what was making him unhappy and she would listen intently like she really cared. On some days he really didn't want to talk. Dr. Heart completely understood that and instead of pressing him about it she would talk about something else. It really helped Ponyboy to have a doctor like Dr. Heart to talk to when things were bugging him. He reminded him of his mother. She also reminded him of Sodapop the way she listened. She was a Sodapop but in a girl form.

Ponyboy's P.O.V.

"Well, I just got back from another session with Dr. Heart. We talked a lot today I opened up and told her about my parents, Johnny, and Dally and how they were important in my life. I was really sad when they died. She listened closely occasionally nodding her head in response of what I was saying. Then she told me her thoughts on the matter. I feel comfortable talking to her. She doesn't think I'm a screwed up kid and she told me to stop telling myself that I was to blame for Johnny's death because I wasn't. I don't always tell her about the bad things. She asked me what my hobbies are and what I like to do for fun. I told her I like school, hanging out with my buddies, sunsets and sunrises, and that I like to write."

"I like sunsets and sunrises too." Dr. Sharp commented smiling. "Ponyboy did you say you like to write too?"

"Yes I do, why do you ask?" I asked her.

She went over to her shelf and pulled out a notebook and gave it to me.

"Well when I was your age when I would get mad, sad, or even happy. I would sit down and write my thoughts from the day. I would like you to take this notebook and try it. It might help you discover writing skills and help you figure out who you are as a person. It sure helped me." She said smiling. I took it from her and smiled back. "Usually I wouldn't do that for someone but who knows it might help me.

"Ponyboy, you know you can call me anytime to talk right?" Dr. Heart asked.

"Yes, I know." I said getting up because the session was over.

"Well, Ponyboy I'll see you next week goodbye." Dr. Heart said.

"Goodbye Dr. Heart." I said and walked out the door.

"Well that was what my session was about today. Now if you'll excuse me I have to write in my journal."

Darry's P.O.V.

"I can't believe what two weeks of seeing Dr. Heart has changed Ponyboy so much. He is slowly getting back to the way he was before all this stuff happened. He's been eating a lot more and gaining a little bit of his weight back. He's still doing well in school and getting good grades. He's not completely healed but he's not to far from being that way. I'm very proud of my brother and his progress!"

Soda's P.O.V.

"Golly I can't believe how much Pony is looking and doing better for himself. He talks to us more now then he used to. His appetite is starting to come back, and he's not having as many nightmares. Talking to Dr. Heart is helping him out so much. I thank her for helping my little brother get on track. He's going to be back to the old Pony in no time." I'm so very proud of my little Pony."

So that was chapter 12. I know it was a little on the short side. I hope you like it! Now I need your help I'm having writer's block with what to do with the rest of the story so ideas are welcome! C-ya later
