AN: THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS!!

DALLY'S POV

I took Pony to The Dingo after the doctor's. My better judgement said not to since he was sick and should be in bed but I couldn't resist that look one more second. He ate half his burger and a fry or two before we left. I could tell he was starting to feel bad and knew I should take him home but he insisted on seeing Johnny. I guess he wasn't comepletely convinced that Johnnycakes was OK.

We walked into the hospital, actually I did since I was carrying the sleepy child, and went up to the forth floor and to room 1345. When we walked in Two-bit was sitting in a chair next to Johnny's bed and they were laughing about something. 'Sounds like Johnny's feeling better.' I thought.

"Hey there." Two-bit greeted. "How ya feeling Pony?" He asked the boy who had his head rested on my shoulder.

Pony shrugged and smiled at Johnny. "I'm alright. How ya feeling Johnnycakes?"

Johnny smiled at him. "I'm doin' better thanks to you."

I placed Pony down on the bed with Johnny and he crawled over to lay in Johnny's lap.

"What the doctor say?" Johnny asked.

"He's got the flu." I told them as I pulled up a chair.

"They took my blood from my arm." Pony said as he showed the bandaid that covered his arm. "It hurt but I didn't cry."

Johnny and Two-bit gave a short laugh. "Is that Mickey Mouse I see on that bandaid?" Two-bit asked as he leaned over to get a better look.

Pony covered his arm and gave a sneaky smile. "No." He said innocently.

Two-bit grinned at him. "I think it is."

Pony gave him his devilish smile. "No it wasn't."

"There's only one way to find out." Two-bit said and with that he pulled Pony outta Johnny's lap and started tickling him as he placed him on his knee.

Pony thrashed around, gasping for breath between laughs, fighting despritely to get away from Two-bit while me and Johnny laughed.

"S-stop T-T-Two-bit!" Pony gasped out as he still covered his arm while trying to protect his ribs.

"Show it to me." Two-bit said with a laugh as he continued his torture game.

"N-n-no!" Pony cried. It continued for ten more minutes until Pony was laughing so much he was crying.

"OK! OK! I-I give u-u-up!" He cried out and Two-bit quite.

"Show it to me." He said and Pony held out his arm, revealing the Mickey Mouse bandaid. Two-bit made a move to take it off him but Pony hurridly folded his arm.

"You said show it to you not give it to you." Pony said as he held back a yawn. I could tell he was tired but couldn't tell if his cheeks were red from fever or from Two-bit tickling him.

Two-bit tightened his grip on him when he made a move to get up. "Were there any hott nurses?"

Pony grinned and leaned back against Two-bit. "Dally thought so." He said as he gave a divilish look towards me.

I smirked. "Some fine one's man. I think I might take the kid back there more often."

"I don't think so." Pony said instintly.

"You don't like the doctor's?" Johnny asked even though we all knew the answer.

"About as much as you like hospitals." Pony said.

I looked at the time then back at Pony. "I better get the kid back before Steve worries himself silly."

Pony grinned. "You mean he ain't already silly? Coulda fooled me."

Johnny and Two-bit laughed while I smirked. "Come on." After saying bye to them we left

STEVE POV

I herd Dally pull up around 3:30. How long could it have took to take a five year old to the doctor? When they walked threw the door I jumped up from my spot on the couch.

"Where have y'all been?" I asked as Dally handed me the kid and a pill bottle.

"We went to lunch and to see Johnny. He takes this at five and then takes it again every four hours." Dally said as I carried Pony to the kitchen. The kid looked ready to fall asleep any minute.

"What's he got?" I asked as I sat the med. down and cradled the five year old in my arms, rocking him softly.

"The flu. I woulda brought him strait back if it wasn't for his guilt treatment." Dally said. "I gotta get going." He ruffled Pony's hair and then left.

I carried Pony to my room and tucked him under the blanket. When I stood up to leave, Pony grabbed my hand.

I looked back at him and smiled. "What's up Munchkin?"

"Please stay." He says tiredly. "Please Stevie?"

I lay down next to him. "Sure baby." I stroked his hair till he finally fell asleep and then called Soda to give him the news.
