Ponyboy's POV:
I swallow the rest of the brownie, giggling at Johnny's comment.
The gang was in the living room, eating brownies and treats that Sodapop had made.
"I dare you to see how many you can eat in 10 seconds," Two-bit dares Dallas and he glares with a grin.
Suddenly, there's a tingling in my throat. I try to clear my throat but it doesn't go away. There's an itching in my mouth and I stand up to go get a drink of water.
As I pour the liquid, my throat starts to feel tight, like it was swelling or something. It started getting hard to breathe and the itchiness became more harsh.
"Darry!" I shout, placing my both my hands on the counter and trying to breathe properly.
"Yeah, Pony?" He comes into the kitchen and his eyebrows furrow in confusion and slight worry.
"Are you okay?"
I shake my head, my throat getting tighter and feeling my tongue start to swell.
"I-I think I'm have an allergthic reacthon," I take a deep breathe and feel my face grow warm.
His eyes grow wide and he grabs me, pulling me towards the living room.
"Whoa, where ya going?" Dallas asks, swallowing the last bit of food.
"Keith, meet me at the hospital."
I gasp for air as my throat swells more and practically cuts off my air supply.
Darry picks me up and runs me out to his truck, setting me in the passenger seat and rushing to get into the drivers seat.
He speeds down the road, careful to not catch an officers attention.
My lips starts to swell and everything goes blurry. I keep gasping for air, trying to take deep breaths.

"He's going to be okay. He's not deathly allergic to tree nuts but it was close. He should probably have soups and not thick stuff because the swelling still needs to go down. Other than that, he'll be fine," the doctor says, leaving Darry with a paper about important stuff and... those things.
I open my eyes but my eyes are just a bit swollen so I can't open them all the way.
"Hey kid brother, feeling okay?" He asks, Sodapop sitting in the chair next to me.
I nod, wanting to laugh it off.
"You really scared us. I didn't know you were allergic to that. Funny how we never knew that and you eat Sodapop's cakes all the time," Darry chuckles.
•How was this? I couldn't think of anything else to write so here's this shitty chapter. Sorry for the lack of updates•
