Chapter 16 teaser · 5:51am Jul 26th, 2018
I thought that I would post a small teaser for Ch. 16 I hope you guys like it! This is still a bit rough but I just thought that I would put this out there!
Rainbow crawled in her bed and stared up at the ceiling. The events of the last few hours ran threw her mind. While in deep thought she slowly drifted off into a light sleep. A chirp from her phone pulled her out of the realm of dreams. Lazily she pulled the phone into view a large smile tugged at her lips.
“ Hey Rainbow, I’m feeling a lot less loopy now. Some of the drugs are starting to wear off. Now I can type complete sentences again!”
“That’s awesome! Although, that one text you sent me was hilarious! I will treasure it forever!”
“Nooooo!!! If you love me, you will delete that text!”
“Never!”
“Don’t make me come over there! Missy!”
“In that case, come and get me!”
“Grrrr, you are horrible! Taking advantage of a sick man!...You're fired!”
“You can’t fire me! Xp”
“Just watch me!”
“Fine go ahead, I’m waiting.”
“Your fired….”
“After some soul searching I realized that I was a little hasty and I want to retract my earlier statement.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah, I’ve seen the error of my ways and I want you back!”
“Was it after you realized that I am your only source of kisses?”
“Maybe? XP”
“You are such a dork nugget!”
“That makes me your dork nugget, sweetie!”
“ lol you got me, so how are you feeling?”
“A little sore...everywhere. But with a few pain killers I feel okay.”
“If you are in pain then you should take some more.”
“Nope! If I took any more, then I won’t be able to talk to you anymore.”
“If you say so...I miss you.”
“I miss you too!”
“ I wish you were here…”
“Same...I’m sorry Rainbow but I’m about to fall asleep. I’ll talk to you tomorrow.”
“You better! ^///^ Sweet dreams!”
“Night! *yawn* Love you.”
“Love you too.” whispered Rainbow. With a yawn she set her phone on her night stand before dozing off.
When morning came Applejack felt Sunset’s arms wrapped around her waist. Applejack paused for a moment before carefully removing herself from Sunset’s grasp. She sigh in relief when she heard Sunset’s soft snores. Sleepy Applejack made her way down the hall and towards the kitchen. On her way her eye caught Sunset’s room; the door was wide open. Feeling impulsive Applejack went in, the morning rays softly lit up the room. Sighing deeply Applejack turned to leave, only for her eye to catch an obscured picture frame poking out from Sunset’s mirror on the vanity. When she pulled the picture free she froze. It was the picture of Sunset driving Ed home. Seeing Sunset on a motorcycle was quite the sight a small smiled tugged at her lips. Quietly Applejack set the frame down on the vanity before leaving.
When Applejack arrived at school she caught a glimpse of Rainbow. Applejack felt a pit in her stomach when she watched Rainbow enter the school. The bitterness nawed at her gut, after giving herself a good pinch. She almost felt like her old self again the comforting thought allowed her to lift her head up high.
At lunchtime Sunset and her agreed to meet up in the math lab to eat in peace. Sunset didn’t say a word about Applejack moving her photo. And in a way Applejack was glad that she didn’t. The tension was still high in their group of six. And right now, Applejack just wanted to be with Sunset, her closest companion.
The pitter patter of rain filled the empty math lab, Applejack quitely ate her lunch in the abandoned classroom. That particular day Applejack was famished. Sunset was going to join her a little later in the lunch period.
“How’s it going?”
Alarmed, Applejack began to choke on her sandwich. She was met with a sly grin from Pixel Pizzaz. Deep down Applejack knew that Pixel would be back. But Applejack was never prepared whenever Pixel reared her smugmug.
“Hhhmmmm, I see that you are busy maybe I should come back later?” Mocked Pixel as Applejack slowly recovered from her coughing fit.
Applejack managed to give Pixel the icyest glare that she could muster. “What-” Do you-” *cough* “Want?” wheezed Applejack.
Taking a seat in front of Applejack, Pixel leaned in close. “As you know, I’m always watching.” Pixel stated, with a crazed grin. “I just wanted to say that I’m impressed. I mean spying on your Ex and her new boyfriend day and night is quite the accomplishment.”
Applejack’s face turned red with rage. “Rainbow is not my girlfriend!”
Pixel placed her finger on her chin for a moment. “That’s right, Sunset is your new bae now!” Snickered Pixel.
Applejack just hissed through her teeth which made Pixel smile widened. “What do you want Pixel!”
“Well, that’s just it isn’t it! I have been thinking about that very thing for weeks now. And after a lot of thinking I want you to wear this.”
Pixel pulled out the biggest ugliest bedazzled hair bow Applejack had ever seen. Applejack recoiled at the very notion of wearing such a monstrosity!
“I’m not going to wear that thing!” Growled Applejack
Pixel frowned. “Yes you are, and if you don’t then I will leak that photo of you and Sunset! You won’t want your little secret to get out do you?”
Applejack’s fists were clenched as her hands began to shake. An angry snort burst from her nose. With an icy glare Applejack snanchted the bow from Pixel’s hand. Pixel flinched with Applejack’s fingernail scratched her hand. Applejack was furious Pixel had her connered; she didn’t care what people thought of her. But she did care about Sunset, she felt obligated to protect her. Sunset was now part of her family and Apple’s look out for each other no matter what.
“Fine I’ll wear it!” Applejack gritted her teeth. “Tomorrow morning!” She added.
With a cat like grin, Pixel was now only inches away from Applejack’s face. “Now that’s what I want to hear!” Pixel flicked the tip of Applejack’s nose as she turned on her heel to leave. Before Applejack could react Pixel was out of arm's reach. Moments later Sunset popped into the room she had an uneasy look on her face. “Is everything okay?” Asked Sunset.
Applejack tossed the rinstone bow onto her lap to keep it out of sight and swallowed hard. “Yeah, everythin’ is great...”
Sweet I cannot wait for the rest of the chapter.
