CHAPTER 5
(Third Person)
Kyle laid on the hospital bed, unconscious due to a combo of alcohol, stress, and oxygen deprivation. He still had his clothes on, even his hat and jacket. The doctors had no time to remove them when he was rushed in by Applejack and Zephyr, as he was in critical condition then. There was a large purple ring around his neck, with a few cuts dotting it, apparently caused by the rope. Nopony was there, as nopony had been told of the accident yet. Applejack just sat beside the bed, her eyes red and bloodshot from crying. When she had arrived to visit Kyle, she hadn't said anything, but just stared at him for a few minutes, soaking in the severity of his injury, then broke down crying.
"Ah' don't know if Ya' can hear me, Kyle... But Ah' guess this 's as good a time as ever t' just come out n' say it..." He could hear her, but he couldn't respond, obviously. "Ah've had... Feelin's fer' Ya, fer' a while now... Ah' don't know where they came from, but Ah' know Ah' feel this way, and Ya' deserve t' know... Ah' know Yer' married, but Ah' jus' wanted t' get that off mah' chest... Ah'll jus' go now..."
She slowly got up, and trotted out of the room, letting out a heavy sigh. She felt a LOT better after having said that, even if he didn't hear her.

(First Person)
"Being unconscious sucks..."
I was in a coma-like state, so I was aware of my surroundings, but couldn't interact with them. AJ was talking to me, So I decided I may as well listen.
"... Guess this 's as good a time as ever t' just come out n' say it... Ah've had... Feelin's fer' Ya, fer' a while now... Ah' know Yer' married, but Ah' jus' wanted t' get that off mah' chest... Ah'll jus' go now..."
It felt like my mind had exploded. Twice. Revelations like that always surprise me, and sometimes even blow my mind. This was one of those revelations that cause the latter to happen.
"AJ has feelings for me? When the hay did THAT happen? I mean, I know I'm a hard worker, and I've helped out her family a bit, but that couldn't be the reason. Nopony would fall for me just for THAT. Or... Would they? I mean, Fluttershy fell for me just because I was nice and she was a fan of mine. But that was just a fangirl like... Is AJ into rave music? Hm... I guess I have a bunch of time to think. I'm probably gonna be like this for a while..."
I heard the door squeak open, but nopony came in, as if they were hesitant. Then, Dashie walked in, and I felt my heart sink. She was probably going to be glad to see me like this.
She let out a light gasp, and it seemed very controlled. She had held back a much worse show of shock. "It's even worse than she said..." She sat down next to me, and ran her hoof along my neck, tears welling up in her eyes. "I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have just cast you away like that... I was just so upset... I should have let you tell your side of the story... Please... Please forgive me..."
"I forgive you, Dashie... If only she could read my thoughts... I wanted to tell her so badly...
"I... I-I never w-wanted you t-to get hurt l-l-like this... W-Why did I do what I-I did... Th-This is all my f-fault... I-I-I'm the r-reason you're like this... I'm s-s-sorry... P-Please... J-J-Just w-wake up... PLEASE..." She rested her head on my chest and started sobbing uncontrollably. I felt her tears soak through my shirt and onto my skin. I could feel a tear roll down the side of my head, but I couldn't do anything about it. I was just a sleeping man, seemingly oblivious to the world. All I could do was lay there, listening to her cry, unable to do a thing about it. I just laid there, while the love of my life poured her sorrow and pain out.
"Please... Just please wake up... Please..." Her voice was just above a whisper.
I wished I could do something. I wished I could answer her pleas. I wished I could just wake up, and embrace her. But I couldn't. All I could do was lay there.
"What was I thinking? Why would I kill myself when I have this? I should have just given them time... Now look at me..." I felt even more worthless than before. But I didn't want to die... But what I wanted was much more tormenting. I wanted Dashie, but I couldn't have her.
"I guess I deserve this... I wish I could just tell her how much I love her... I wish I could just say something... Oh Goddesses, what have I done? This is all my fault... I'm so sorry Dashie... I caused all of this..."
Then my ring began to glow. I felt a new strength flowing through me, something I hadn't felt for an entire year. Something very important to me. Something absolutely wonderful.
"Love..."
My entire body was glowing with a rainbow colored aura. My eyes popped open, and I saw the hospital room, and an astonished Dashie staring at me. I rolled off of the bed, and turned to face her. The aura faded away, and I felt a million times better. I looked in the mirror, and I looked like I felt otherwise.
"Kyle...?" I looked back at Dashie, and she had tears in her eyes.
"Dashie..." I fell to my knees in front of her, pulling her into a deep, loving embrace. We both cried on each other's shoulders, never wanting the moment to end.
I'd never felt happier in my entire life until that day.
........I don't know if I should happy or confused
HAPPY TIME! FINALLY!
First I was , but then I read more and I became .
Then I took an arrow in the knee.

122264 I would have found that funny then I took a sword through the chest. 122261 wow dude you finished reading and commenting at the exact same time as me.
YAY!!!! Things are starting to get happy again! Dashie and Kyle are together again!
122271
Let me guess, someone stole your sweet(t)roll?
finnaly something good happened to kyle for the first time in 5 years
122271
Suddenly, all I can hear is the Twilight Zone theme....
Derrrrr........
say what now?
122293 Wait that really old show that starts witht he guy doing a voice over with things floating in space?
122260
STOP STEALING MY THOUGHTS
Well, I see that my predictions from the last chapter were completely wrong. I wasn't expecting any happy moments for another few chapters. Good to know that Dash still cared, that scene was so heartwarming. Enjoy reading it to the music as well.
"Being unconscious sucks..."
If i was in a coma, that would probably be my general consensus as well, with a few choice words added in of course.
122309 No chance
Now that's Dashie out of the way... but now comes the difficult part (Scoots)
122311
.....
Crap.
122305
Yeah.
122260
why not both?
122282
uuh for kyle it was only one year.
For the past five years, I have only cried twice. Once was when one of my dogs died and once was when I was depressed enough to contemplate suicide.
And then you wrote this fic, and I cried twice in five chapters. Once from sadness, and once from happiness.
You are freaking magic, dude. I have no idea how you got through my stoic barrier, but you did. Take my stars. All of my bloody stars, all for you.
Aww not the path I was look for
but still great chapter

122379 #mantear so touching
I cried manly tears of manliness ok they weren't manly tears
It's amazing how a near-death experience tends to change things. This is Kyle's second one as well if you count him actually dying but coming back thanks to Luna as near-death since he didn't stay dead.
Ok we have Element of Love up and running again. Now let's see if we can work on getting the other 7 in tune again. Oh yes there's also Scoots to worry about. Explaining Kyle's side of the story might help but not too sure after the Hoops incident...don't think the attempted suicide will help much either. I have a feeling we may need to get Apple Bloom's help with Scoots.
Oho, what's this? The author has decided to make some random out-of-nowhere plot twist that surely had nothing to do with the original story? I thought only the Artemis Fowl series was allowed to do that.
122358 well in equestria nothing good has happened in the past 5 years is my point (actually in the past 5 years nothing has happened to him but thats besides the point... )(although if it matters that much to you then the past year, happy? )
damn thats touching. but now what? i cant really think of much else after everypony forgives him
this is too much I'm going to go kill myself now... JUST KIDDING this is sorta happy-sad?
This chapter started out sad. Then started looking up Now to start putting the rest of his life together Yes twilight I know.
OH yeah! Things are finally looking up. Well, in a sense. I just know something bad will happen, because I'm just that pessimistic.
YYYEEEAAAAAHHH!!!
Now I can sleep soundly tonight
-Glassed
122519 (insert response video here)
Torrentican is not pleased......
20 bucks saying HOOPS doesn't recover
122515 Yup same here, almost every night i was thinking ' what will happen next' and now finally, a good night sleep.(btw love the new avatar )

My heart just exploded. Not twice but THREE times.
I love this! YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYE-
Finally a new chapter. I haven't evem read it yet.
Holy SH** That was so sad and beautiful and (sob) (My Little Dashie Tears)
mylittlefacewhen.com/media/f/img/130512621668.gif
I'm sorry but this wasn't enough to make me cry. My mental wall is strong. It was very ad'awwable though.
122319 I have a feeling that shes not going to feel the same way as Dash but i hope she changes her mind, i also hope she takes an arrow to the knee
YAY HE IS AWAKE!
I WILL BURN MY DREAAAAAAAD!
Now trollestia will come and lock him up, taking him away from dash forever!
FINALLY
Dawwwwwwww
I really hope that Kyle doesnt start falling for AJ, that would totally mess up the story and the Element of Love thingie. Plus, I hope that Scoots changes her opinion on her dad... I want a happy ending!
I am a dream psychic. I get these flashes in my dreams that depict certain parts of the future involving technology. It has happened 9 times in my life. I recently had one where i was laughung like shit on this website reading this story and something about rape O_O.
