Adrianna didn't get out of bed for the next two days.
her pillow was still damp with tears.

"it's my fault." she would tell Brad.

he would just hug her and tell her otherwise.
his heart ached for her.

when she finally rolled out of bed on Wednesday,
she realized it was almost Thanksgiving.

it was actually the next day.

time had gone by so fast every since she had been closer with the gang.

maybe it was because she finally found where she belonged.

she rolled out of bed and her legs still ached from
how that dirty rat handled her.

she limped over to the mirror and looked at the
bruises on her collarbone.

she yearned for Pony.

he still had school, though. so, she went downstairs
and took a nice, long shower while Brad was gone.
once she was done, she got out and put on some
jeans and a sweater.

then she grabbed her switchblade and some
money, and headed out.

she went out to the grocery and bought some
groceries for Thanksgiving.

Brad has told her Darry had been down on work
recently and wouldn't be able to cook as big of a dinner, so she figured she might as well help out and
somehow Adrianna remained to look beautiful,
although she felt like a wreck.

inside and out.

it was about 5PM once she was done so she walked
home and put the stuff in the fridge and pantry
before headed back upstairs.

when she walked in her room, Pony was there on
her bed.

he liked to come to her house right after school
these past two days.

"hey." she said bluntly and he sat up from the bed.
she walked over and sat next to him.

"i need to tell you something." he looked at her
dead in the eyes.

uh oh.

she thought.

is he bored with me?

she questioned herself as a girlfriend, Brad didn't care enough if they dated now just no sex.

"what's wrong, Pony?" she asked.

her voice was concerned.

"nothing, Adrianna it's just.

she waited patiently for him to finish his sentence.

"i love you Adrianna . so much. i'm so in love with
you it's crazy. it's like if i didn't have you i wouldn't
have a point in life. i wouldn't have anybody to
have this type of love with. and you're the best
thing that's ever happened to me; i'm sure of it." he
said.

her eyes were glossy,'

"i love too you too Pony"

that was exactly what she needed.

the rest of the day Adrianna helped him with some
homework but he would cut her off just to cuddle

night rolled around so they eventually left her room
and went downstairs. they were surprised to see
Soda, Brad, and Johnny there.

"hey there, Adrianna !" Johnny stood up and hugged
her.
she loved how he smelled of vanilla.

"hey Phil." her voice was soft.

"heya, Georgia. how ya been?" Soda said. she sat
beside him.

"better, much better." she smiled and his heart
fluttered.

not like that, they were just so happy to see her
happy.
