I got back to the library fifteen minutes later; I took my time getting back. When I opened the door I heard small talk, like there was another pony in here. I know spike was with him, but it didn’t sound like the kind of talk they would get into. I decided to make my arrival known.
“Hello, everypony. I'm home.” The small talk stopped, I walked into the main part of the library to see Rainbow Dash talking to Fixinit on the couch.
“Hey twi, Rainbow stopped by for the next book in her story. I didn’t know where it was but spike found it.” he smiled.
“So, Rainbow, what book are you on now?”
“Daring Doo and the crocodile king.” She beamed, she had the right to, that was halfway through the series, and this wasn’t a trilogy, no, it was about 100 books long, and each book was not short.
“Great! What were you two talking about?” they averted their eyes and Rainbow blushed a little.
“Nothing. Ya know, I should be going.” She got up to leave; I grabbed the end of her tail with my magic.
“Tell me.” They exchanged a glance, and then Fixinit spoke up.
“We were talking about Silver and his obsession with Applejack.” Rainbow looked at him, a little surprised I think, then copied his expression.
“Ok, so what else came up?” I was almost sure that wasn’t what they were talking about; again, Fixinit was the one to talk.
“Well, ya know, the usual.”
“And what might that be?”
“How weather patrols were doing, what’s happening at turners, your mood lately.” That last one caught me.
“My mood?”
“Yeah, like how you fell for two guys and they both left you. ya know, last time you were balling like no tomorrow, according to Rainbow,” I gave her a short glare “but this time you don’t seemed to be fazed at all, did you not really love Silver?” I was a little shocked.
“o-of course I loved him.”
“Then why don’t you seem to be sad that he’s obviously loving Applejack?” now I was in the spotlight.
“Um… well… you see…” I didn’t have an explanation.
“Don’t worry Twi, we won’t tell him if you never loved him.” I knew rainbow, she wouldn’t do that to a friend.
“Your right, I never loved him like Dillon. I don’t know if it was out of fear of what happened last time or if I just never had any feelings whatsoever, but I never had any true feelings for him.” I was ashamed, I was admitting that I didn’t love the stallion that I had slept with two nights before, the stallion that I was supposedly in a relationship with for the past few days, the stallion that showed some feelings towards me.
“It’s all right twilight, we understand.” They exchanged another glance.
“Fixinit likes you!” Rainbow yelled then flew out the door as fast as she could, and that was fast.
We stayed where we were for a minute, then I looked at him, more than a little stunned “is this true?” he blushed and looked down.
“yes.” It was barely a whisper, but I understood loud and clear.
“Why didn’t you say something?”
“You and silver, plus I didn’t know if you felt the same. Stuff like this can be a mine field.” He looked further away.
“You should have told me something.”
“I know.” His gaze was further averted; I was worried his neck would hurt.
“Because I would have seriously considered a relationship.” He looked up with hope in his eyes.
“No joke?”
“Why would I be joking?”
“Because I know what Dillon did to you, and I’ve pulled some stuff too, this would make up for all of that.”
“No joke, I promise.”
“ok.” We hugged, and then he looked into my eyes “I want this to be real, if there is any doubt in your mind, tell me, now.”
“It will take some work, but I think I could really love you, Fixinit.” I wasn’t lying; I really could learn to love this stallion.
Then the unexpected happened. He kissed me. It was a passionate one, not like schoolyard filly, five bit bet, nothing there. It was full of passion. He really did love me. Call me crazy, which has happened before, but there was something familiar about how his tongue moved through my mouth, like this had happened before, like a distant memory of good times. When it ended I backed off and looked into his eyes, there was love and a little hurt.
“Was that too much too fast?”
“No, it was beautiful. I loved it. But there was something familiar about it.” he suddenly got a little scared, not too scared, but I could still see it.
“How so?”
“It was just like how Dillon would kiss me.” I realized this was it.
“Is that a sign?”
“Maybe. But I still liked it.” I kissed the end of his nose.
“That’s good.” He gave me another kiss; we fell on the couch, me on top of him, we just held each other for a while.
“It’s almost time for me to go to work.”
“Hurry home.” Then he left, leaving me alone on the couch.
-----
I had gotten to the shop early today. I didn’t expect Fixinit to get here until the normal time. I was wrong; he got here about five minutes earlier than me.
“Hey turner.” He sounded mellow.
“Hey kid, you sound funny, are you getting a cold?”
“No, just got a marefriend, that’s all.”
“Wouldn’t happen to be a mare by the name of Twilight Sparkle would it?”
“How did you know?”
“Just a hunch, you’ve been living with her for the past few days, right?”
“Yeah, it’s been about a week.”
“Right and a stallion your age would get feelings for a mare after being with them for a while, especially a mare like twilight.”
“ok.” We got to work on the clocks, he worked slower today, staring off into space, daydreaming, making her cutie mark out of gears; he must really like her.
“You, uh, need the day off?”
“No, I can work.”
“Ya know, my last employee listened to music, maybe that will help you focus.”
“maybe.” He pulled out buds, I recognized these buds, they were the kind that Dillon had.
He was much better from then on, working as fast as he ever did. I decided to not take him for granted anymore, I would think about it all tomorrow.

first paragraph explination: he was a bit of a genious. he allways knew what he was doing and learned fast. he had the best teachers and not much else to do in his freetime, seeing as his parents were allways working. so he had a lot of time for education. he actually had as much time at k-12 as you or me, he just went through it in a faster period of time.
second: think, back when we first made computers we used typewriters for most writing. he can get all the tools from twilight, they already have circutry (twilights computer) and it took humanity 200 years because we didnt already know how to do it.
thanks for the feedback and i look foreward to hearing from you again.

yes, the earbuds are basically enchanted speakers. the mlp world is weird, you see vinyl with her DJ equipment and then you see Twilight with a huge ass computer. in my eyes the show itself isnt very consistant. im just trying to make my thoughts fit.
Easy, the doctor
2394637
wat?
2394642
Of how Turner, knew he will be dating Twilight, I wonder why Twilight never found the final message of Dillon
2394832
spike made it fall under the couch, remember?
2394856
Noooo…I think I eaither didn't read that part of you didn't well specify very clearly that part, your story is a little tricky to read.
And for 2 weeks she never though in asking help to the princess, I was suspecting she might at least talk to her consider she somehow knew him, no to mention they though she could bring him to his home, or at least she would had write asking why Twilight stop writing her reports…oh well, little details

She didn't think that celestia knew anything. Plus she was really depressed. Plus remember the episode where celestia says that they don't have to write her unless they learned something? She assumes twilight just hassnt learned anything noteworthy in a while.
I'm surprised that spike hasn't found the note while cleaning.
Edit, OK yet again the site didn't inform me you replied....
Arnt all these personalities in pony form going to make this story a tad complexed? also long. But I like long
2396757
he doesnt clean under the couch.
sorry, i did, its the comment above it, i accedentaly quoted myself sorry.
this aint long, long is this story. it has 69 chapters, each a few thousand words long, and still counting. all stories pale in comparison!!

Yeah I edited my post, firm fiction has been acting funny and doesn't always tell me when someone replies to a comment.
Blue angel is nice and long. I get a laugh that he always says the next chapter won't be 20k+ words then it ends up being just that.
I'm working on my own story ATM I finished the prolouge.. I think I spelled that wrong.. Anyways its at 9600 words. That's after cutting out around 5000 words bringing it to around 7000 then adding new parts and editing others.
I don,'t plan to publish it till I've got several chapters done however.
Edit stupid tablet auto spelling corrector!
