>Day gotta get that waifu at Equestria High. >Be Norman. >Ever since Counselor Cadence helped clear your name at school, you have been trying to get her to be yours. >You don't even want to look at Rarity anymore. >Most of you lunch time is spent with Miss Cadence. >It's weird, you would think that she would hang out with the teachers, but she spends her time with you. >Oh well, you can't complain. >Thats like a free date. >You know what? >Today's the day. >Today, i'm gonna tell her how i feel. >You get your double order of food and head to Cadence's office. >You ballance one of the trays on your knee while you open her door. >When you get inside, she is there waiting for you with a smile. >"Norman! What did they have today?" she asks as she unpacks her food. Well, apparently they ran out of materials for pizza and cheese sticks, so cheese day was canceled. Instead, they brought out the meatballs. >"Ah, i see. Well, have yourself a seat and we can talk like usual." >You place down your food. >You begin making small talk like usual, telling each other how your day has been going, and what you've both been up to. >Oh yeah, gotta tell her now. Cadence, i have to tell you something important. >"Oh, actually i have to tell you something important as well!" >Oh man, what if she's gonna tell you what you want to tell her. Why don't you go first? >"Okay, but you are going to freak out when i tell you." >Oh man oh man oh man oh ma- >"I'M GETTING MARRIED!" >... Oh... man... >"I know! I'm so happy!" she says making that smile that usually lights up your day. >But right now, it does not light up your day. Wh-who is it? >"It's my old Highschool lovebird, Shining Armor. We met only a week ago, and then he pops me the question. This may just be feelings that i have from back then, but i feel that i love him the same way i did back then. I said yes! We're getting married!" I... i uh... i just don't know what to say really. >"You don't have to say anything, you're invited to come to the wedding!" she says handing you an invitation. >You just look at it, that's all you can do right now really. >"Oh, that's right, you said you had something important to say too right?" Oh... um... not really. Hay, i just remembered that Brad needs help with something... see you later... >"Oh, what about your food Norman?" Oh, you can throw it all away, i don't really have an appetite anymore... -----------------------   >Final day at Equestria High. >Be in line to take your diploma, shake the hand of Principal Celestia, and get on with your life. >"Norman Normal." calls out the announcer. >You hear the crowd of students go "WOOOOO", "YEAAAAH" and whistle really loudly. >Also, your mom is taking, like, 500 pictures per second. >Might as well be making a video. >You head up to Principal Celestia and shake her hand. >"Good job Norman." she says patting you on the back. Say something different to the next student. >You wink at her and walk off the stage to see her watch you and shake her head with a small smile. >After everyone has been called on, you all throw your hats in the air and celebrate. >You meet up with your friends and hyuck it up with them for awhile. Yo, where's Mrs. Cadence at? >"I dunno Norman, i haven't seen her." said Adam with a shrug. >That really sucks, she was the one who really fixed shit for you here, you really wanted to see her. >Oh well, time to get out of here before your mom grabs you and decides to take even more pictures. >You begin to walk out, taking off your robe and shit, and walk to your car so you can drive on home. >Wow, it's dark outside. >I mean yeah the graduation was scheduled to be late, but still. >Just before you get into your car, you hear some sobbing. >You turn around to see Mrs. Cadence, the school's counselor crying near a tree. Woah woah woah, what's wrong? >Cadence looks at you and then quickly wipes away her tears. >"O-oh, hay Norman. Congrats on gradu-" Don't "Hay Norman" me. What's going on? >Cadence's lip begins to quiver and she comes and cries on your shoulder. Cadence, what happened? >In between sobs, she tells you a slightly incoherent story about how she found out that her husband, shining armor, had been cheating on her. How did you find this out? >"*sniff* the dumbass called me with video, while he.... while he..." I get it... >She goes back to resting her head on your shoulder and sobbing. >You pat her back and try to calm her down. >"*sniff* i guess i'll just catch a bus back home..." No no no no no, I'll drive you there. >"Norman, that's sweet but-" I'm not gonna let you go home by yourself in the condition you're in. >Cadence looks at you with tear filled eyes and begins to catch a small smile. But first i gotta take you around town and cheer you up. >"Norman you don't need to-" In the car, we're heading off to a fancy restaurant. >"Norman i-" *Beep beep* You getting in or what? >Her smile grows a bit and she hops into the passenger seat. >You drive outta there seeing your mom come rushing towards you. >"Isn't that your mother Norman?" Ah, she just wants to take like, 500 more pictures and then give the story of how i grew up so fast and all that. >"I guess i would like to get away from that too if i was in your position." she says waving towards your mother. >Looks like she is just starting to light up a bit. >Lets kick it into overdrive. >You put on your tunes. >Scientifically engineered to make people smile. >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DX_rgHHWwv8 >"Heheheh. Is this what you normally listen to Norman?" Hay now, don't be dissin' on my jams. >She has herself a giggle fit. >It's always good to hear that from her. >Now, where to take her. >Maybe she could go for some italian. >Mmmmmnah. >She would probably just order the spaghetti. >How about a greek place? >Then again, the only thing i've had at a greek place was a gyro. >You don't think she would like gyro's. >Maybe she's a burger kind of gal. You like gourmet burger's right? >"What do you recommend?" Well, let me tell you about this place called "Five Guys Burgers". -----------   >You and Cadence are just stuffing your faces full of burger and fries. >Only leaving room for the occasional drink break. >"Wow, they have really good burgers here!" Yeah, and they cook them right in front of you too. >You both finish up your meal. >It grows silent for awhile. >"Norman, could you please drive me home?" >... Sure Cadence. >Damn, you were sure you were putting her in a better mood. >You throw away your trash and get a refill on your drink. >You open the door to let Cadence out first. >"Thank you Norman... for the night." Yeah, anytime Cadence. You can always count on me to at least try and cheer you up. >She gives you a tiny smile. >You open the car door for her, let her inside, close the door, and then get inside. So then, where do you live? >"I'll just give you the directions. go down the road to the left." Gotcha. >The car ride is very silent, excluding the parts where cadence tells you to turn. >You finally pull up to a two story house. >There is a lot of trash and garbage cans out in the front lawn. >She must have been throwing away his shit. >You get out of the car and walk her to the door. Well Cadence... i'm here for whenever you need someone. >She stares at you for awhile. >"You've always been there for me Norman." >You look at her. >"C-can you come inside?" Cadence isn't it best if i jus- >"Please?" >You can't refuse her. Sure Cadence. >She takes your hand and leads you upstairs. >She takes you into the bedroom. Cadence i know that- >She presses her lips against yours. >You never thought you would be doing this. >You don't know if you should feel shocked, or pleased. >She parts the kiss, looking at you straight in the eyes. >"You've always been there for me... and i always knew how you really felt..." B-but... how? >"I guess you can call it women's intuition. Norman, there are many reasons why i couldn't have done that." Yeah, you could have gotten fired. >"That's the biggest reason. I really wanted to accept your feelings Norman, i really did, but i couldn't. When Shining Armor came to town, i knew i had to be with him to keep you off of my mind." >This is a lot of information you can barely wrap your mind around. >"But... now you are Done with school, and I'm done with shining... and... i can finally accept your feelings." she says, beginning to kiss you again, this time with a bit of tongue. >You've always wanted to do this. >Ever since you met her. >Maybe you are just a terrible romantic, but this is the best. >You part once again, panting a little. >"Norman..." Cadence... >Tonight's going to be a long night.
