Ten years ago you left Ponyville, intent on traveling Equestria and seeing the world.

At least, that's what you told everyone.

As you make your way back. You realize you never should have left in the first place.

Spoilers: Takes place after the Series Finale

This whole short was inspired by the incredible picture done by xieyanbbb

You've always been a little bit on the scrawny side; you've been like that since middle school. It's now your sophomore year in high school, and things still aren't changing...

You could take years of being picked on and being shoved around the hallways by all the jocks in your school. You could take being constantly embarrassed during gym class too, but after getting rejected by Applejack to the Fall Formal, you've finally reached your breaking point.

It's time to change. It's time for Anonymous, the 140 pound bitch-boy to be no more!

As Ponyville's self appointed animal helper, Fluttershy takes responsibility for all the critters around town. And with Fall already deep underway, she overworks herself to make sure all the animals are prepared for the long winter months. At least this time she won't be alone, as you offer to lend her a hand.

Maybe she actually won't work herself ragged this year. Maybe she planned ahead and started early? Or maybe did the same as she always does. Regardless, you'll be there to help the beautiful pegasus... And hopefully not make a fool of yourself in front of your crush.

AN: Just something small I started a while back. This started as a RP with a friend of mine (you know who you are.) So It's not perfect, it's just a little cute romance story involving YOU and Fluttershy. The dialog from you is implied, just trying a different writing style as I like to do.

I hope you enjoy, partially inspired by the cover photo. Feel free to point out errors, it's only proofread by me, once through mostly. So there is bound to be errors.
