//------------------------------// // Chapter 3-Five Years Later // Story: The Pear in Me // by Creativa-Artly01 //------------------------------// Five years later, the two finally go on their first date. "Oh Buttercup, I love you," sighs Bright Mac, kissing her on the cheek. "And I love you too," replies Buttercup, kissing him in return. The two then share a milkshake. Once they're done with the milkshake, they head off and play several rounds of bowling. After bowling, the two go and get their portrait painted, so Pear can have something to take home to remember him by. The two then stroll down to the Ponyville fountain, where they then part, Pear Butter with the painting in hoof. Back at her home, Pear Butter hangs the painting in her closet where her father and sisters won't find it. She then sits down on her bed and sighs to herself. Meanwhile at his home, Bright Mac goes out in the field and helps his father do the plowing. As he plows, he smiles as he thinks about Buttercup. Once he's done with plowing, he heads to the apple orchard and gets to bucking the trees. There, he can just think about Buttercup and talk to himself without no pony noticing. He smiles as he kicks the trees. He loves Buttercup so much and swears cross his heart that he's going to marry her someday.
