Hello everyone, yes I am sill alive! So I am very, very, very sorry for not updating. I am not even going to try and make excuses because I have none. So because I have left this story hanging for so long I decided it was probably time to wrap it up. I'm sorry if this is not the ending you wanted, but it's time for this story to come to an end.
Pony's POV
I couldn't seem to sleep, no matter how hard I tried I just couldn't fall back into oblivion. Every time I closed my eyes I got flashes. I wasn't sure what they were, whether they were actual memories or just images conned up from my imagination.
I sighed and rolled over onto my side. The only good thing was that the pain in my head was mostly gone now. Instead of the piercing pain I had been feeling I was now feeling a dull ache behind my eyes.
I rolled back over onto my back and stared at the ceiling, taking a deep breath and holding it in. I was just so confused and frustrated and I just wanted all of this to end. I kinda wish I had just stayed with Angel and Tab. Angel. I drew up the image of her in my mind, smiling. I really missed her. She wanted me to go, she wanted me to remember who I really was. I wish I had stayed with her.
I was slowly pulling myself into a sitting position when I was hit with another set of flashes.
I was standing in the kitchen with two eggs in my hands.
"Anybody home?" a familiar voice called through the front screen.
"In here!" I yelled, "Don't slam the door."
This was followed with the slam of a screen door. The guy name Two-Bit ran into the kitchen and took me by the arms, swinging me around.
"Hey Ponyboy," he greeted all-too-cheerfully, "long time, no see."
He pushed me into the other guy, Steve, who slapped me playfully on the back. One of the eggs went flying from my hand while the other got crushed in my hand.
"Now look what you did," I griped.
I came out of the memory flash with a gasp. I rubbed my eyes, trying to clear my now foggy vision. It was a strange feeling having your memories come back one by one, almost like piecing together a very large puzzle. If they even were memories. For all I knew they were figments of my imagination.
I shook my head and laid back down, hoping to fall asleep. I was restless and tired. I took another deep breath and let it out slowly, closing my eyes. Slowly I started to drift off to sleep, falling backwards into darkness.
I shot up with a gasp.
"Darry!" I cried.
I remembered. I remembered everything. I had dreamed, but they weren't dreams, they had actually happened, I remember!
Darry came rushing into my room, clad only in his boxers, looking like a wild man. I jumped up from the bed and ran to him, wrapping my arms around his waist. He stumbled back in surprise and grabbed onto the doorframe to steady himself.
"Ponyboy, what...?" he let the question hang.
"I remember, I remember it all," I told him.
He stood there in shock for a moment before squeezing me into a tight embrace, rubbing the back of my head. I felt his tears drip onto my forehead. I smiled and buried my face in his shoulder.
"What's going on?"
I looked over Darry to find Soda standing in the hall, stretching his arms as he yawned. I let go of Darry and ran to Soda, fisting my hands into his shirt and pulling him close to me.
"What...?" he let it hang just like Darry.
"He remembers Soda," Darry said softly.
"Ponyboy?" Soda questioned.
"I remember Soda, I remember it all. I love you," I whispered, pulling him closer to me.
Soda started to bawl and than I started to bawl and than Darry started to bawl. Darry came over to us and wrapped each of his arms around mine and Soda's necks, pulling us close to him. He took a hold of the back of our shirts and tightened his hold.
"I am never letting you out of my sight again," he whispered to me.
I didn't care. I never wanted to leave them ever again.
The End
I'm sorry if the ending was kinda crummy, but I really felt like I needed to finish the story since I had no idea where to go with it next. Anyways I hope you enjoyed and thank you so much for reading. Now that I have finished this story I will be taking request for new stories. I will try really hard to be more consistent with updates, but because I am in college now it will be more difficult, but I promise to do my best. Bye!
