//------------------------------// // Planning A Better Life // Story: A Beautiful Light From Within The Darkest Clouds // by Princess Glitzy //------------------------------// Chapter 11 "Shining Armor and I have decided to make my life better because right now it sucks." She began to go through the list of things that need to be done so that she can fully accept them. "I will get a new style and start making friends. I will also start up my studies again once I have acquired some new friends." Shining Armor felt better than he had for a couple of days. "So you`re happy now?" he asked anxiously. Twilight summed up her life and feeling at the moment and said "No, not at all, but I want to be so I`m going to force myself to be no matter how much I wish I could just disappear. " Shining Armor didn`t know if he should be happy or not so he decided to be happy. "Yeah! You`re trying! That`s a start!" "Wait! Hold it mister. If I`m going to suck it up and be happy by making friends then you have to ask Cadence out and make at least one friend." He felt offended. "I have friends!" Twilight glared at him. "Do you have friends who will stick by you through this and help you out?!" "No." Twilight smirked "I thought so and did you hear the part about asking out Cadence?" I have to ask out a princess?! She is a princess of love for Celestia`s sake! She could have anypony! Or anygriffin for that matter. Mares, stallions, pegasi, earth ponies, unicorns or even alicorns! "Does she even like me that way?" Twilight looked at the ground like she`d done something wrong. "Oh yeah, that. Funny story." "Tell me what you did!" Twilight searched for a way out of this, but he would just follow her or pester her. "I kinda, sorta..." "Kinda, sorta WHAT?" She shouted nervously. "AskedCadenceifshelovedyou!" Shining Armor pretended that he didn`t hear that right. "Huh? What did you do?" "I asked Cadence if she loved you while you got the swords." she said quietly. "I`m so mad at you for asking her something like that and putting your snout in other ponies` business, but... what did she say?" he asked. She laughed at how he started angry and then finished the question while acting like a little filly. "She said 'yes'." OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!!! She LOVES me! Why am I keeping this inside? "PRINCESS MI AMORE CADENZA IS IN LOVE WITH ME!"
