Pony's POV

I woke up with a splitting headache. I slowly opened my eyes and winced at the sudden light. I blinked several times to clear my vision. When I could see clearly again I turned my head to the side to find Angel asleep in a chair. I reached out and placed my hand on her knee. Her eyelids flickered open and she stared at me for a moment.

"Ponyboy, are you alright?" she demanded.

"Um…I guess so," I answered, "what happened?"

"The doctors said that you had a bone spur pressing against your brain. That's what was causing the headaches. They had to operate, said you were lucky you didn't die," Angel told me.

Then I said something real intelligent.

"Oh."

Well that would explain the throbbing pain in my head. I also had a feeling that something was seeping into my ears, but I really didn't want to reach under the bandages to find out.

"Tab's out getting something to drink; he'll be back in a minute."

"Did you tell the doctor about my memory loss?"

Angel shook her head. "No, I told them you were my brother, and our parents were outta town and there was no way to reach them."

"Did they ask how I got the bone whatever in my brain?"

"Yeah, I told em you hit your head hard on a counter last week. They didn't believe it at first, but I can be pretty convincing. Oh and we don't have to worry about the cops cause Tab paid our bail."

I nodded. Well that was a relief. I was still a little worried about the memory loss thing. If the bone had been removed from my brain then shouldn't I have my memory back? I guess not. I exhaled slowly and leaned back. My head was starting to pound even harder.

The door opened and Tab walked in. He flashed me a smile and come over, giving my shoulder a squeeze.

"Glad to see your eyes open," he said with a grin, "How ya feeling?"

"Like I had my head cut open," I told him.

Tab laughed and sat down on the edge of the bed, slapping my knee.

"So, remember anything?" he asked.

I shook my head grimly. "No it's still all blank."

"Don't worry, you'll remember eventually," Angel assured me.

"I'm not sure I want to," I muttered under my breath.

"What?" Tab question

"Nothing."

"Well you don't have to worry about anything, cause I'm gonna take good care of you," Angel said, leaning forward and kissing my cheek.

I got a strange feeling in my stomach. Tab and Angel were both smiling at me, talking like nothing was wrong. I felt like I had been here before. Not like in this hospital, but with people sitting and caring about me. I shook my head and sighed. I got a feeling that I was putting together pieces of my life through my dreams and my situations, but nothing seemed to spark. Once again I was getting frustrated. I felt a hand on my arm and looked up to see Angel's worried face.

"Ponyboy, are you alright? You kinda got this blank look on your face," she told me.

I ran a hand over my face and let out a breath through my nose. I nodded.

"Yeah, just thinking," I said.
