Chapter IV
"You can come out of the hospital now," the nurse woke her up. "But, you'll have a pretty bad limp for a while." Avianna sighed.
"That's fine," she told her. She looked at the ground.
"I'm sorry about that," she looked a little regretful. Avianna wanted to say "Well you should be!" but only replied with,
"It's alright." Avianna had to be on crutches for about two weeks. By then, Johnny was out of the hospital and Dally stayed out of trouble. She went over to Ponyboy's house often, because for one had no other place to stay, two, because she wanted to clean that house up. And she felt bad when Ponyboy was sick.
Avianna and Johnny became really close while Ponyboy was sick. When Ponyboy recovered, Johnny was supposed to appear at juvenile court, and he was scared as all-get-out. Avianna had some pretty pennies in her wallet, and she could pay for the charge for manslaughter. Bail him out, if he was supposed to go to jail. Avianna just loved how they talked, and got along, how she understood him, and how he understood her. It wasn't long before Johnny had a small crush on her. Avianna denied hers. Johnny and Avianna would just talk, staring at the sunsets, and she rested her head on his shoulder sometimes, but it was becoming more often.
Ponyboy was jealous. He liked Avianna, the same as Johnny, but by then, Avianna had become super close to the gang. She had developed a few nicknames: Anna, short for Avianna, and Sugarcube, or Sugar. It was Soda who suggested it, and everyone took a liking to it, even though it made Avianna as red as heck when Johnny called her that.
Avianna got back at him by calling him Johnnycake. He never ever had been called Johnnycake by a girl. "Johnnycake and Sugarcube sitting in a tree k-i-s-s-"
"We get it Two-Bit!" was everyone's response when he would taunt them.
Avianna saw a rabbit in the pet store, and thought of a plan. She heard a little girl saying, ¨Mommy, mommy, can we get a bunny?"
The child's mother looked upset. She had no money to buy it. "I would sweety, but we can't. It's too much." The little girl still stared at the brown, fuzzy bunny.
"It's my bunny," she told her. Avianna felt extremely compelled to buy the rabbit and all it's things for it so that little girl could have a pet. When the child left with her mother, Avianna watched as they walked to their home, just down the street. Perfect, she thought.
