//------------------------------// // Day 5- The Fashionista // Story: From the Brink // by Silent Sir 224 //------------------------------// Ah, another amazing night's sleep, Fluttershy I love you! So I have two more days until I leave, I need a plan, where should I take her? What should we eat? What does she like to eat? My head is just going to start spinning with these questions until my release aren't they? Is Fluttershy sleeping in the chairs over there again?.. Yep. I feel kind of bad, sleeping like that cannot be good for her at least today she will go home and enjoy sleeping in her own house. Now I just wait for her to wake up, watching her sleep so peacefully, makes my heart beat a little faster thinking about what will happen in two days. "WINDBREAKER, NO!" Whoa, what? Fluttershy? What in the name of Celestia? "Fluttershy? Fluttershy! What happened are you alright?!?" No, no don't tell me she had another nightmare. "Oh-oh Windbreaker you're okay, thank Celestia!" Whoa calm down, you're hyperventilating and sweating a lot. "Yeah, but you should sit down, you seem a bit excited, what happened? Did you have that dream again?" Sweet Celestia every time she has this dream it makes me feel so bad, being responsible for making Fluttershy so worried. "N-no, I had a different dream, it was scary though." Okay, so she isn't worried about me dying anymore that's good. "What happened in your dream?" What could have made her so scared to scream like that? "I... I dreamed that you just left, you were just gone and you didn't tell any pony and you didn't even say... goodbye." Wow, the thought of me just leaving is making her cry, she really does care about me. "Fluttershy, I can't believe that you think I would do that to you. I will never just leave without saying goodbye, I'm considering the idea of just not leaving entirely." I have no reason to leave, no obligations no place to actually go, so I might as well settle down here... with Fluttershy. "R-really, you're thinking about staying here in Ponyville?" Well, yeah why wouldn't I? "Yeah, you look like you might need a shoulder to cry on, and mine won't be doing anything here." My mind is made up, I'm staying, Fluttershy might need me here but definitely likes that I'm here and that's enough. "Windbreaker, that- that's wonderful to hear!" I suppose that it is, and I don't have to worry about where I'm going next but I will miss the nomadic lifestyle. "Just please make sure Pinkie Pie keeps the part sm-" gah- ... the pain... is a lot better today, these hugs are actually getting less painful. "Of course, but you still have to meet another friend of mine before you get out of the hospital." Oh right I almost forgot. "Can't wait, you okay now? Seeing you cry like that just tears at me and I want to make sure your okay before you go." "Yeah, yeah I'm okay now and I saved my best friend for last, I can tell that you two will get along well. Be back in a few okay?" "Please hurry." I really hate being alone around here. ... About ten minutes went by, last time it was twenty, gah, that's too long! ... Oh, there she is, and she looks a little flustered, "hey Fluttershy is everything alright?" "N-no not really Windbreaker, being here has neglected my chores and house upkeep so I need to get that done right away." That's a shame, I don't get to spend more time with her today, or tomorrow, horse feathers! "I understand, the world won't stop spinning for my sake, but could you work fast? I won't be able to see you tomorrow." "Okay, I will try before I go this is my friend Rarity I'm sure you two will be good friends by the time I get back." "Bye, Fluttershy I will miss you." "Bye Windbreaker." Okay, so Rarity, a white unicorn with a royal blue mane and tail, both well maintained, so she takes pride in her appearance. "Hello." I'm curious to see how this will go. "Hello, my name is Rarity a pleasure to meet you- uh Windbreaker correct?" "At your service, or I would be if not for all the bandages." "I see, Fluttershy has told us about you surviving such a ghastly ordeal." "Only because of her, I really owe her a lot." Just more than my life, I need to know how to repay her. "You really hold her in high regard don't you?" Of course! Why would you ask that? "Well, of course I do! She saved my life out of pure kindness, and ever since has made my life better than it has been for a number of years, I l-." Whoa there, don't go spilling your guts sir the wolves already tried to do that, oh she caught on. That look in her eyes tells me oh so much, including all of the ideas that she's getting. "You love her, don't you?" Well, she got me, she got me good, might as well tell her the truth. "Y-yes, but I don't care who knows, I'll announce it to the heavens if I have to." Well, I kind of want to keep it under wraps around Fluttershy until I'm out of here. "Ah romance, seeing such a mutual love just makes me wish it would happen to me too." Wait mutual what does she mean by that? She can't mean- "Wait, you're telling me Fluttershy feels the same way?!?" "Oh, you didn't know? I thought it was a little obvious for you." Ow, she just insulted my intelligence right now, but I can't call her on it, she still has to answer my questions. "How so?" Enlighten me, Ms. Rarity. "When Twilight visited, do you remember when Fluttershy left unexpectedly and had to be dragged here the next day?" What does that have to do with the situation at hand? "Yes." Where is this going? "Well, Fluttershy came to my house that day, completely frazzled, she explained what happened and was so confused, she never really felt this way about any pony, she told me. When she realized she promised to come back the next day, she was terrified and AppleJack was forced to keep that promise for her." Wow, I'm gonna blame those pain pills for that, yeah it definitely was those pills. "We finally convinced her the next day that you needed her here and she needed to put her feelings aside, for you. Then, Rainbow Dash came to me after her visit and told me what happened, that's when it hit me. I realized that you had similar feelings, now I haven't told Fluttershy and I won't depending on how you answer my next question." "Okay," not exactly fair but I'm not in any position to challenge that. "Now that you know all of this, what do you plan to do?" My dear, this is a simple question, with a simple answer. "Get out of this hospital, then take Fluttershy on the best date either of us ever had!" I assume that answer is satisfactory. "Good, now I'm going to make you a suit, get her an elegant dress and set up reservations at one of the nicest restaurants in town, leave it to me and everything will go perfectly." Wow, that just happened. "Well, that really only leaves me one task, doesn't it?" "Yes, when do you plan to do it?" "I was thinking when I'm released, but I think if I can today that would be best." "Then with that I will get everything set up and get Fluttershy back here, good luck." "Thank you Ms. Rarity, for everything." Let's see if it pays off. So, now I just sit here and wait, keeping these doubts at bay. ... Maybe she couldn't come! ... Maybe she doesn't want to see me! ... That's it then it's been over an hour, she isn't coming. ... I should just sleep, I need it for tomorrow.... ... "Windbreaker?" Uh, Fluttershy..? Fluttershy! "Fluttershy, you came back!" Thank you Rarity! "Yeah, Rarity said you had something important to tell me." Okay here goes nothing! "Would you like to go out with me when I get out of the hospital the day after tomorrow?" Please, please, please... "I, uh... y- yes I will, I would love to go out with you!" Yes! Life is good, thank you, you stupid, stupid wolves you just made my life perfect, I don't think I've ever been this glad to be mauled by a bunch of wild animals in my life. "Thank you Fluttershy I don't think I've ever been s-" ...okay, I knew her lips were soft, but I didn't know they were this soft! Our first kiss, yep perfect, everything is just perfect in my world, I don't ever want this moment to end, but I know it has to, and it just did. "Oh my gosh, I don't know what came over me I'm s-" No, no more pointless apologies, I don't know if this is our first kiss still, but I really don't care. "That was... for lack of better words magical, now please get some sleep in your home tonight I will see you when I get released okay?" "U-um, o... okay I will, goodbye Windbreaker." "Goodbye Fluttershy, I can't wait to see you again." This day could not be described by any other word besides perfect, absolutely perfect. Now tomorrow, that's a different story, oh well it's the last day might as well get it over with. Goodnight world....
