"What's up, Sunset?" >Her smile brightens a little as she stalks around to your other side. >Like a giant fucking cat, she is. >Another smirk as she lifts your chin ever so slightly with her index finger. >"Well, I was thinking that since the Fall Formal is coming up and you're new to the school, you could use a date." >Please. >You're not interested in that shit. >...Okay maybe a little. >Seeing you consider her offer, Sunset smiles wider. >"I thought so. Well, here's a once in a lifetime opportunity. You. And. Me." >She takes great care to emphasize the last three words, inching closer with each utterance until her fingers rest on your chest and her face is a breath away from yours. >With a coy look in her eyes, she raises her eyebrow. >"What do you say?" >The heady scent of her perfume is intoxicating, but after a few seconds you shake it off. >You open your locker and shrug. "Yeah, nah, you're a cunt." >Collecting your books, you slam the door shut and walk away from Stunnedset Shimmer. >After several seconds, you hear her shout after you. >"WE'RE NOT DONE YET, DO YOU HEAR ME?" >You shrug and keep walking. >So much for the normal school life you'd been hoping for.   >Lunchtime >You manage to avoid the grey glop Ol'Granny was slinging onto everyone's plate >Thank goodness for the little things >As you take an uneasy bite into your 100% all-recycled beef burger, you feel someone tap you on the shoulder. >Out of the corner of your eye you see it's Sunset Shimmer. >Here we go. >Without bothering to swallow, you turn your head and grin. >You make sure to showcase the gristle you bit into. >Sunset's face falls ever so slightly, but that doesn't stop her from sitting down next to you. >Fucking cunt, you'll need to step up your game. >"Listen, Anonymous. I think we may have gotten off on the wrong foot." >You swallow the food in your mouth, making a show of licking your chops to knock loose anything hanging around and disgust the hell out of her. >It doesn't work as well as you hoped. >Leaning in closer, she gives a strained smile. >"I think that both of us can benefit here. I need a date to the Fall Formal and you can gain some credibility. It's hard being the new kid, believe me I know." >Placing a hand over the black pit of her heart, Sunset arches her eyebrows and gives you a pleading look. >"So, let's help each other." >Cunt or not, she sure knows how to work the puppy dog pout. >Would it really be that bad? >A quick glance around the cafeteria confirms that, yes, it would be that bad. >Everyone and their brother are staring at the two of you. >Though Sunset's right, you could use some credibility. >Reaching up, you place a hand on her shoulder and smile. >The girl smiles up at you, expectant. "Not a fucking chance." >You pat her on the cheek twice before getting up and leaving your lunch behind. >For some reason you've lost your appetite. >Oh well >The stares fueling your ego will hold you over until you get home. >You just hope the bitch gets where you're coming from this time. >"NOBODY REJECTS ME TWICE, ANON! NOBODY!" >Fucking drama whores.   >The boy’s locker room reeks of B.O. and feet. >You suppress the urge to gag as you change and head back out onto the gym floor. >The basketball coach stands in front of the students and nods his head >"All right, for you slowpokes that are just coming out, we're playing dodgeball today." >Ah yes, dodgeball. >The great equalizer. >You smile a little at the mental image of drilling Sunset Shimmer in the face with an over sized ball >A man can dream... >As you stand and chuckle at the thought, you hear a familiar voice call out to you. >"Anonymous!" >Your eyes snap open and settle on... >Vietnam fucking shits, it's Sunset Shimmer >She gives her usual finger wave and grins. >"You're on my team!" >It figures. >You drag yourself over to her and try to look as sullen as possible. >The rest of the class shares your pain. >After splitting up into several teams, the coach pits you against one another in different locations around the gym. >Sunset gives a few brief orders to the rest of the grunts on her team before turning to you. >She opens her mouth, but you cut her off. "Look, I'm not interested in going with you to the Fall Formal. Why can't you get that?" >The popular priss pouts, pursing her lips into a thin line. >"Well that's all fine and good Anonymous, I kind of figured that out at lunch." >Awkward... "W-well fine then. Glad to hear it." >Sunset giggles a little and holds out her hand. >"Let's agree to leave all that behind us and have a good time, okay?" >You stare at the offered hand for several seconds before nodding and wrapping your own hand around hers, giving it a firm shake. >She smiles wide, and for a moment you almost feel bad for being so mean to her. >After all, what had she done to you anyway? >The coach's whistle tears through the air and you suddenly feel yourself being twisted around. "Hu-uh? Wait!" >You shout, even as Sunset flips you around so that you face the oncoming hail of dodge balls. >One hits you in the face.   >Another in the gut. >And another in the dick. “Ow…” >You make an attempt to keel over and die, but Sunset has your arm locked behind your back, forcing you up on your toes as you try to free yourself. >She gives a small laugh and pats you twice on the cheek with her free hand. >"Like I said, the two of us should make sure we have fun today." >"Anonymous! You're out!" >The coach cries out and you feel Sunset's grip on your arm loosen. >You crumple to the ground, cradling your bruised... pride. >The devil woman gives a small grin before catching an incoming ball and hurling it right back into the face of her opponent. >"See you at the next match, Anonymous." >With a wave of her fingers Sunset struts away, her long legs on full display before she starts her rampage of revenge. >Who knew that a girl like her was so proficient at catching, throwing and generally handling balls? >Before long the match is over. >Sunset plops down beside you, wiping off her face and neck with a towel before dropping it on your face. >"Here, clean yourself up a bit. You're a mess." >Sputtering, you drag the soggy sheet off of you and glare at Sunset. "You're a bitch, you know that?" >A long moment passes before she turns to you and smiles. >"You have no idea." >Another whistle signifies from the coach and Sunset pulls you to your feet. >Her hand, despite her prickly exterior, is incredibly soft. >You have the piece of mind this time to move as far away from Sunset as possible before the whistle is blown again. >As you hurl back another ball, you see another come flying back towards you. >No time to move your hands back. >Shit >Resigning yourself to getting hit, you sigh and wait for the inevitable >The sound of rubber of skin rings through the gym. >But you don't feel the ball hit home. >Glancing down, you see Sunset's hands positioned in front of your middle. >She gives you a coy smile.   >You're about to say something when she yanks you in front of her again, leaving you face to face with one another this time. >A ball pings off your back and rockets up towards the ceiling. >This fucking cunt. >"Anonymous! You're out!" >Flinching at the coach's words, you glare down at Sunset and sneer. "What happened to having fun?" >Sunset winks and gives you a small shove. >"I don't know about you, but I am having fun. Aren't you?" >When you don't respond, she shrugs and sighs. >"Well that's not my problem. Though, if you wanted to go to the Fall For-" "Nope." >You throw your hands up into the air and storm off towards the locker room. >Coach calls after you. >"Hey, Anonymous! Where are you going? If you don't stay out here I'm going to have to mark you absent!" "Go ahead!" >You shout back, shooting Sunset a look. >She seems stunned. >Good. >You hope she gets hit in the face. >Anyway, fuck gym. >It’s stupid. >As you push your way into the locker room there's another wet ringing sound of rubber on flesh followed by a whistle. >"Shimmer, you're out!" >You really hope whoever that was enjoyed that hit. >Because you sure did.   >Last period of the day. >You find yourself glaring at the clock. >It's been an eternity since you started staring. >You're convinced the hands have stopped moving. >At last, they creak into place and the bell chimes throughout the school. >Hurriedly jumping to your feet, you cram your stuff into your backpack and make a beeline for the door. >Just as you step out into the open air, you feel a palm smack your chest. >It doesn't hurt, but it stings enough to make you grit your teeth. >Glaring down, you aren't the least bit surprised when you see the green-eyed she-devil staring up at you. >She doesn't look too happy either, but you couldn't really give a single fuck about that. "What do you want?" >Sunset is quiet for a moment before reaching down and taking your hand. >"I really need to talk to you." >Nope, not again. >You pull your hand free of her and shake your head. "Not a chance. I've already said my piece." >Stomping her foot, Sunset glares at you. >"Fine, then at least listen to what I have to say!" >Despite every nerve in your body telling you to choke this bitch, you cross your arms and raise an eyebrow. "What's up?" >Sunset sighs and glances around before scowling and leaning up to whisper in your ear. >"Look, Flash and I are... not doing so well." "You broke up." >Your deadpan doesn't seem to phase her, though she does sneer a little before continuing. >"Fine. But I need a date, otherwise Snips and Snails are going to be hounding me all night." >She jerks her thumb in the direction of the Doofus Duo. >You glance over at them, noting that they seem fully focused on picking lint out of their belly buttons and comparing them against one another. >Ick. >Nobody deserves that.   >With a tug on your shirt, Sunset draws your attention back to her. >"It's just for one night. I would..." >Gritting her teeth, she hisses. >"Really...appreciate... your help." >With a heavy sigh, you shrug. "Sure, fine. Whatever. Can I go home?" >Sunset's face brightens and she claps her hands together. >"Oh thank you!" >She hops up onto her toes and gives you a peck on the cheek. >"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" >Hopping down the stairs, she turns to you with a smile and stars in her eyes. >"It's next Friday, we'll meet here at the school. You won't forget, will you?" >A shake of your head is enough to send her bouncing over to the Lint Lords. >Well, that's enough of that. >You make your way home, but press your hand to your cheek several times over. >It felt, kind of nice. > > "What the fuck are you niggers doing? Are you fucking blind? Guard the fucking point!" >You screech into the headset. >Fucking preteens, can't play shit. >Sighing, you take a break and sip on your drink. >Despite your unquenchable rage, there's something nice about playing video games on the weekend. >Almost, liberating. >It sure is a good thing you didn't have any plans. >You smile and mark through the calendar on your wall. >In big red letters it reads, "Stand up Sunset Shimmer." >Part of you does feel bad about it, but it's good for her to get used to disappointment. >It's not like she's going to destroy the school or anything when Twilight Sparkle beats her out for Fall Formal Queen. >Besides, you've already got a date >Grabbing another handful of snacks, you return to the lobby and get ready for another game.
