That branch came out of nowhere I’m telling ya.” >”Yea, well I’ll see you another time Derpy.” “Oh okay, see you” ~slam~ “later…” Your ears now slumped. >Turning around and taking flight back to town you have finished up your deliveries for the day. >Oh almost forgot to get stuff for muffins! >Now cruzing through the market you make your way to the stall you frequent. “Hiya Seabiscut.” You chirp out. >”Oh well if it isn’t my best customer Ditsy Doo! What is it that I can do for you my dear?” The old stallion voiced exuberantly, glad to see a familiar face. “I need my regular order, but doubled.” >”Alrighty then, if you don’t mind an old fool being curious what’s with the extra?” “Oh! I’m showing my friend how to make my special muffins today.” Now blushing at the thought of Anon in an apron. >”Ah I See, well your friend is very lucky then.” Nodding his head in affirmation. >You hear giggling behind you and you see a group of mares looking in your direction when you turn your head. >Noticing they’d been spotted they quickly turn their heads away and begin whistling like nothing had happened. >Your ears start to droop and you turn back around, eying the ground… >You knew what was so funny… >”Hey! Don’t you three have better things to do than stand around!?” Seabiscut gruffed. >You look back to where they were and all you see are dust clouds. “Thanks Seabiscut…” you sigh. >”Anytime for my best customer.” He says while smiling warmly. >”Now buck up, your friend isn’t gonna want to learn cooking from a sad sack is he?” >Being as motivating as he can. “Yea, you’re right.” Now feeling a smile creep up on your face. “But… How did you know my friend was a he? Your head now cocked. >Seabiscut now grinning just nods and says, “Let’s just call old-timer’s intuition.” >”Now get going, hears the order Ditsy and lets just call this on the house for being a great customer.” “Oh I can’t do that!” You retort. >”Nonsense Ditsy. Now go on, you go have a good day.” Still donning his trademark smile. “Okay, thank ya Seabiscut. I really mean it!” >Now placing the sacks into your saddlebag you turn around and start to walk off, but not before turning around one last time to wave goodbye. >Should probably know better by now that not looking where you’re going isn’t such a great idea. >Before you can stop yourself you stumble into somep0ny, twisting them and yourself into a pony pretzel. >After your eyes stop spinning and you have checked yourself over, you look to see if the victim of your surprise assault is alright. >It takes a second but you realize just who you sacked, it was Fluttershy. “Oh! I’m sorry Fluttershy I just don’t know what went wrong.” >”Ouchy...” dusting herself off and getting back to her hooves. >”It’s okay… maybe next time watch where you’re walking if that’s okay with you…” she replies quietly. >After a deathly awkward moment of you just eying each other you decide to speak up, don’t want any problems with an Element of Harmony anyways. >You take notice that she has a large amount of oats with her, looks like she has been shopping too. “Soooooo you feeding your animals with that Fluttershy?” You ask pointing to the oats while wearing a cheesy smile. >”Umm no…” she’s now squinting. >Oops, that wasn’t the right guess I take it. >”If you must know I was gonna cook something for Anon…” ending her sentence behind her mane, looks like she’s blushing. >”Oh that’s nice of you, he sure does get hungry. I’m actually having him come over to my house today so I can show him my muffin recipe.” >Begin to blush at the thought of Anon in an apron; I have got to get him to wear one you giddily think to yourself. >”…oh yea… that’s right…” Fluttershy now is glaring at you from behind her mane it feels. >This isn’t like her at all; maybe she’s not feeling good. “Umm anyway… I gotta get going, Dinky should be getting home soon so… I’ll have to catch ya later. It was nice umm running into you!” You awkwardly chuckle out. >”Try anything…Anon…I’ll deal…you. You derpy… mare…” she murmurs under her breath. >Umm Ditsy… >Yes Fight or Flight? >LET”S GTFO THIS AIRSPACE!!! “LOL K BYE!” And like that you take off as fast as you can home, not looking back. >Honestly you’re too scared too, the tone in her voice was so…so… menacing… That’s wasn’t the Fluttershy you knew from Flight School. >Slamming the door shut you sigh and collect yourself, can’t let Dinky see you this way. >One big, deep inhale and exhale later. >Alright…much better. >”Mom! I’m home!” Screeches through the house. “Ah! Oh… It’s you Dinky…hehhehhe” >Your heart now taping up your ribcage after it jumped almost clear through them. >Sorry bout that boss… >It’s okay, you repeat to yourself. “So Dinky I have a surprise to tell you.” “Oh what?” Dinky asks while shrugging off her bag. “We have a guest coming over later, a special guest that you have been wanting to see.” You tease playfully, drawing out the excitement. >”Oh come on! Who!?” she exclaims. “Well it’s your good friend Anon of course!” cheering as you deliver the good news. >Dinky’s face lights up and she squeals in pure bliss. >”Yaaa!” she yells at the top of her lungs. >”Oh I have so much to show an tell him, my drawings of him and me playing together and…” Now set in max speed she flies through her agenda of things to do. >In all the commotion you feel a tear well up inside, it’s been ages since she had this much joy in her voice. >You knew the other kids laughed at her, called her weird cause her mom was different, teased her and wore her down. >But you weren’t about to spoil this moment by crying, not even if your life depended on it. >After all, she talked constantly of Anon since that day he walked her home. >That coincidently was the first time you met Anon, and you have had a crush on him since that day. >Looking back down at Dinky, you scoop her up and hug her tightly. >Ugh! Mom let go I gotta get stuff ready for when Anon gets here.” She squirms around in your arms. “I love you my little muffin, don’t you ever forget that.” You fight back the tears roaring inside. >Dinky calms down and returns the embrace. >”I love you to Mommy.” She whispers. >You let out a sigh and scooch her on. “Go get ready, Anon could be here anytime ya know.” >An audible gasp escapes her lips and she runs to her room, giggling all the way, and little sparks flickering from her horn. >It takes you a couple seconds to get yourself together before you start setting out the muffin ingredients. >You had company coming soon, very special company… -End Part 2
