Lyra was trotting through the central square, looking for some apples to buy. In the distance she saw an apple stand and quickened her pace. As she came closer, she saw a pony that she thought she knew. As she got closer, she caught a glimpse of the pony's cutie mark, and instantly remembered the mare. It was Bon Bon! Lyra remembered the days in college when they shared a room. They were the best of friends.
Approaching Bon Bon, who appeared to be carrying a saddlebag full of apples, Lyra put on her friendliest smile.
"Hey, Bon Bon!" she called. Bon Bon turned her head, instantly recognizing the turquoise mane and coat. The two ponies embraced, speaking of their college days. They remembered how much fun living in the same dorm was, and decided to live in the same house.
Lyra brought Bon Bon back to her house, and they cooked some dinner.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Bon Bon, come on it's time to go to lunch!"
"Okay!" yelled Bon Bon. She trotted down the stairs and followed Lyra out of the the house. They went out for lunch, where Lyra purchased a delicious apple pie.
"Hey, look at this cute little thing!" said Bon Bon.
Lyra looked at the parasprite, but before she could do anything, it ate her pie.
Bon Bon tried to comfort her, but it was no use, so they just went back home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"It sure is a nice day," said Lyra.
"Sure is," replied Bon Bon. They were sitting on a bench together, enjoying the sunny day.
"Lyra, why are you sitting like that?"
"My neck is tired, so I'm just resting it against the back of this bench."
"Oh."
They were silent for a short while. Lyra heard a faint tapping noise.
"What's that?"
"I'm not sure yet."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lyra looked around the house, but there was no time to lose, she had to get going. Without thinking, she grabbed Bon Bon's saddlebag and rushed out of the house. Bon Bon came down the stairs, Lyra's saddlebag on her back. She looked for Lyra, but couldn't find her or her own saddlebag. Giving up on her search, she trotted out of the house with Lyra's saddlebag on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lyra and Bon Bon sat under the shade of an umbrella, enjoying a friendly meal. They conversed about their day until Lyra put up a hoof and silenced Bon Bon.
"Do you hear that?" she said.
Bon Bon's ears perked up as they searched for a noise, and sure enough the light tapping they had heard before was now louder and faster than ever.
"Yes," responded Bon Bon.
"What is it?"
Bon Bon sighed and decided she should tell the truth.
"It's millions of shipfics being written about us."
"What's a shipfic?"
"I'll tell you when we're older."
This... I... Wow. I didn't expect me to laugh so hard at this chapter.
AHAHAHAHAHA!
YES. Reminds me of the good ol' days with NetHack. ("You hear a faint typing sound)
Best chapter so far.
BRILLIANT!
Bon Bon broke the 4th wall. Egag. lol
That ending is so full of win.

Heh, BFFs doesn't mean romantic relationship.

YES! This is a story abotu Lyra and Bon Bon I can get behind!
Wat. LOL.
this is what i was thinking about Bon Bon and Lyra my brother was saying that bon bon and lyra was cannon because we always see them together, and this is what i think about bon bon and lyra shipping in the show, not the forth wall breaking
Attention! The 4th wall had been breached! Everyone to their stations and write more shipfics!
599716 OH NO! THE FOURTH WALL! QUICK! RETREAT TO SKYRIM UNTIL OUR DRONES FIX THE WALLS!!
Wow. That...was actually very clever. Taking all the instances of Lyra and Bon-Bon realistically being "close" and turning them into possible, logical occurrences. I can see your point; just because they're always together doesn't mean that they're "together". It COULD mean they're just best friends. BUT...it could also mean more. I found this humorous and realistic, but...hell, I still like the pairing.
is all that needs to be said here.
whats to say they arent dating? i know a lot of people automatically assume they are lesbian but hey what if they are? whats so bad about it? not saying that you say but hey everything is a possibility i just like mine of them being together i guess lol sue me.
Too funny nice job!
You sir... are a GENIUS

Oh my word, someone else actually played that game!

Quoted for Truth.
There's a small typo in the second sentence: " In the distance she saw and apple stand" no biggie. The story was great.
The meta, it hurts!
602196
Err...no.
The 'an' is the indefinite article for 'apple stand'.
'a apple stand' would be grammatical incorrect because if the word after the 'a' begins with a vowel, it has to be 'an'.
Or did you higlight the 'and' because it was the wrong word in the sentence and has to be 'an' and was corrected before I wrote this comment? In that case:
Sorry!
Anyhow, I think, this is the best chapter until now, followed by Rarity x Spike! I´m looking forward to read the next parts.
"My neck is tired, so I'm just resting it against the back of this bench."
Must. Resist. Urge. To break fourth wall....
cant breathe

wow oh wow that was brilliant

ok? not the worse i,ve read
One word:
BRILLIANT

YOU have just solved the mystery.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Haha, this was cute.
I get what you're trying to do, but wow is this bad. You just reminded me of how little fimfic ratings matter, when you can slap together a series of <500 word chapters and hit the top spot in the featured box. Shippers have enough problems without someone pointing out how unrealistic some pairings are. At least your story is crap enough that it shouldn't matter in the long run.
Funny, but drifting away from the title and summary.

Amen. FINALLY someone gets it!
Bon-Bon knows too much...

WHY CAN'T I LIKE AND FAVOURITE COMMENTS
The first second:
The Next:
"I'll tell you when we're older."
Hey, what about that scene next to the well? You know, the one where Derpy pops up? If you're going to spoof shipping (which is a worthy cause, let me tell you) of Lyra and Bonbon, that one cannot be overlooked, since too many people think they were about to smooch or something.
