Discord paced around his land nervously, Fluttershy was coming to visit him today, so why was he feeling so nervous all of a sudden? he then felt a sudden urge to change his land to impress her, it was one of the most top things that he would never do, but then he thought "I would do anything to make her happy" then he snapped his fingers and changed the land to normal, which didn't help much since he was in the Everfree forest,so he snapped his fingers again and changed the land to look like a spring-green field of grass in Ponyville, he decided to add flowers, and maybe a few animals, he was certain that she would love this,he then waited for her to come,
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fluttershy just came from Sugarcube corner, she a two-liter bottle of chocolate milk, she thought that discord would like it, just as she was stepping towards the forest, she heard a voice say
"Fluttershy?"
The yellow pegasus turned around and saw Twilight
"Are you going into the Everfree forest?"
"Yes I was going to see if the forest grew any herbs for salads" she lied
"But I thought you were afraid, and plus, couldn't you get fruits and vegetables from the market?" asked Twilight slightly suspiciously
"Oh, well, I wanted to face my fears" she lied again
"Today?"
"Yes"
"Alone?"
"Yes"
Surprisingly twilight hugged her
"Fluttershy, I'm proud of you"
Twilight let go of her
"Good luck," she said smiling
Fluttershy smiled and said "Thank you" as she made her way into the Everfree forest to see her friend.
------------------------------------------------------
Fluttershy was lost, she couldn't find anything, then, she stumbled upon a tree with a door, she walk towards it and knocked
"Come in, my dear, I am here," said a voice within, Fluttershy then walked in, shutting the door behind her, she then saw what looked like a white earth pony with black stripes, and her tail was different than a pony, Fluttershy guessed this was a zebra, Twilight had told her about them, she then took a seat the table as the zebra gestured her to sit down, The zebra then did the same.
"I am Zecora, I live in this forest, I am an expert, on problems, and great pests, I'm glad you left my door shut, but tell me, who are you and why are you at my hut?"
"Oh, I'm Fluttershy, and, I'm,....Shy?" she tried to rhyme
Zecora chuckled"I can see you usually don't rhyme, but if it were your goal, I'm sure you would reach it with time, in rhymes, you don't have to speak, to give me information that I seek"
"Oh, well, I'm Fluttershy, and I came here to visit a friend"
"Ah, a friend of yours lives here, is that why now you don't possess any fear?"
"yes, but I can't find him"
"I have a hoof I can lend, but first tell me, who is this friend?" she asked while drinking tea
"Well, his name is Discord and-" Fluttershy started to say when Zecora suddenly spit out her tea
"As I go through my memory in my intellect, you said Discord, is that correct?"
Fluttershy nodded
"Why? do you know him?"
"Indeed I do, are you sure he's not troubling you?"
"Yes, do you know where he is?"
"Take this map, it will show you the way, now you may go, without any delay," Zecora said handing her a map
Fluttershy thanked her and left.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Discord sat on the grass, he had been excited to see his new friend, he then saw a cute little Pegasus trot over to him
"Fluttershy!!! it's so good to see you again, did you miss me?" he asked giving her puppy-dog eyes
she giggled "Discord, it's only been a day"
"Really? it felt like an eternity" Said Discord, though he didn't mean to say the last part out loud
she slightly blushed then said,"Okay, well I missed you too, so how about we just sit down and have our picnic?"
Discord nodded as he sat down,
Fluttershy didn't notice the animals until a bunny hopped up to her, When Fluttershy saw the bunny, her eyes widened and she nuzzled the little animal as it jumped into her hooves.
"Aww, she so precious" cooed the mare as the bunny nuzzled her cheek
Discord smiled"Indeed," he said, although he wasn't referring to the bunny
Discord then stopped,'What's happening to me?' he screamed in his head, he felt as though there were butterflies inside of him, 'What is this feeling?'
"Discord? Is everything all right?" said a voice
"Hmm?Oh yes sorry I was just, thinking" he said rubbing the back of his neck
"Oh, Okay, well, I got you this," she said holding the two-liter of chocolate milk from Sugarcube corner
Discord's jaw dropped "Is-Is that f-for me?" he stuttered
"Yes and I hope you like it" she said with hope in her eyes
Discord then brought her into a hug
'I like you' he thought
then he got back to reality, he placed her down and smacked himself in the back with his tail, he didn't say anything, but he wasn't exactly smiling either, when the pain went away, he saw that she had a look of concern on her face, he smiled and patted her head,"Don't worry about me my dear, I'm fine," he said "Now how about we start setting up?"
Fluttershy smiled and nodded, he then helped her set up the picnic.
