Soda's POV

It was the next day and I decided to take the day off so I could go visit Steve at the hospital. Darry went to work, Pony and Johnny went to school, and who knows where Two-bit went. All I was worried about was going to see how Steve was doing. So I got dressed, ate breakfast and headed out the door to the hospital. Once I got there they let me right in surprisingly, they said that he had been asking for me. I walked in his room and he looked straight at me with a worried look on his face and I wasn't sure why.

"H-hey man." Steve says

"Hey, how are ya feeling?" I asked

"I'm feelin better I'd say......h-how are you feeling?"

"I mean I'm not the one in the hospital silly so I'm feelin fine." I laugh

"O-oh yeah, right......"

"You seem really nervous about something, what's on your mind?" I ask curiously

"Well I ummmm I just wanted to uh tell ya something....."

"What did you wanna tell me?" I was getting really nervous and I just wanted to know what he was trying to say

"Well Soda I uh think that I might like you and not just as a friend or a best friend, I like you as a lover a-and before you slap me for being a fag I'm sorry I-I just had to tell you a-and if you don't wanna talk to me anymore or be friends for that matter it's fine I get it......" he closes his eyes as if I was gonna slap him

It was silent for a moment and then I finally did something.

"I-I-I think I have to g-go." I say as I run out of the door and out of the hospital

'I don't know why I didn't just kiss him right then and there. I like him a lot, but I was just so surprised that he liked me back and if we were to get in a relationship I didn't wanna loose the gang because of us being fags. I mean isn't it wrong to be gay? And if our relationship didn't work out and we got into a fight we wouldn't be able to be friends again and I just didn't want to loose our friendship.'

'Am I thinking too much into this? Maybe I should turn back and tell him that I like him too. But I need to think about this for a little bit to get my mind clear and figure things out. It's a good thing I have the house to myself today.' I thought to myself as I was walking home

Steve's POV

I closed my eyes waiting for Soda to slap me but he didn't so I slowly opened my eyes.

"I-I-I think I have to g-go." He said then he ran out of my hospital room

I just sat there in shock for a couple minutes until I finally broke down crying. I cried for a good 30 minutes until I finally made myself stop. I decided to sleep on everything that just happened and figure it out later because if I tried now I would probably start crying again.
