A/N: Finally another chapter! Please keep reviewing!

When I woke up I was still tired and freezing cold. I glanced around at my surroundings and stiffened. I wasn't familiar with my surroundings... In fact... No. Way. I felt an uncomfortable presence in my arm and looked down, AN IV! I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL! My heart began to race as an uncalled for panic attack began. HOW THE FUCK WAS I SUPPOSE TO PAY FOR THIS?! Then it hit me. Why was I even here?

"Hello?" I asked hoarsely, so scratchy I had to repeat myself to be audible.

"Darry!" I heard Pony say excitedly. I turned my head to the left and saw him jump from his chair.

"What's happening...?" I asked confused, his sudden movement made my head spin.

"You're real sick Darry. You had a bad fever so Soda and me took you to the hospital... You were scarin us pretty bad, callin for dad and all..." He mumbled the last part and I felt indescribable guilty. I was so selfish, getting sick and all.

"Where's Soda?" I asked, I could've flat lined right there. Pony and I were so awkward toward eachother, I loved that kid to death, so why didn't I just talk to him? He didn't seem to mind the question, he was probably expecting it which made me feel much worse.

"He went to find a phone, probably callin work or Steve, I dunno." He shrugged, looking at me. "How do you feel."

"I feel like I'm ready for work." I said, giving him a grin. That was a flat out lie. I felt like I was going to pass out.

"Yeah well you don't look like that." He returned my grin with a smile. I saw concern in the bags of his tired eyes, he probably knew I wasn't kidding about going back to work.

"You don't have room to talk, you look exhausted... How long have I been here?" I asked, suddenly realizing his exhaustion didn't look like it came over night.

"Two days... Don't you remember? Doc came in here about an hour ago and said you still have a 104 fever..." He continued but I didn't hear the rest. Two days?! Two. Days. My vision began to blur as the thought of hospital bills spiked a terrible headache. "Darry? Darry?!" I heard Pony's voice say in freight, but it faded... Along with my vision.
