Smolder is in her dormitory, chillaxing on her bed, right before an angry Yona comes stomping in, slamming the door shut.
Noticing her friend’s mood, Smolder asks: “Uh, everything alright?”
“Yak is not fine. Ponies at this school drive yak crazy.”
“Uh huh. And how so?”
“Why, just now, friend Sandbar looked at yak weird.”
“That’s Sandbar for ya.” Smolder says while rolling her eyes.
“Yak knows.”
“Speaking of which, I too have had ponies look at me differently. Boys mostly.”
“Really?” Yona places her hoof up to her face, whispering. “Dragon don’t think what yak think.”
“And that is?”
“Ponies look at dragon and yak differently because ponies like us.”
Smolder’s eyes get wide in shock, “I... I don’t know,” Smolder gets up, sitting on the edge of her bed, “But, now that you’d mention it. I have noticed some of the boys, in our class specifically, look at me weird too.”
“Friend don’t think.”
Smolder gives a smirk.
“Hmm, now that dragon mentions it, yak had noticed extra attention from Sandbar.”
Smolder gives a look to her friend.
“Oh nono, pony and yak just friends.”
Smolder crosses her arms.
“But now that dragon friend mention it, yak do have something to say," Yona goes over to whisper into Smolder’s ear, “Yak thinks pony is cute.”
“Well dang,” Smolder quickly looks around the room, seeing how no other creature is here, “Since we’re on the topic, I do kind of, I don’t know, feel a certain way for a certain pony.”
“Really? Oh, YAK MUST KNOW!” Yona shouts loudly, Smolder placing her claw over her mouth to try to not bring too much attention to their room.
“Yak sorry," Yona says more quietly, “But still, who is he?”
“Well uh, yeah, it’s awkward.”
“Oh-”
Yona is interrupted by the door opening, revealing on the other side Silverstream and Ocellus.
“Hey guys!” Silverstream greets them.
“We heard shouting. Anything wrong?” Ocellus asks either the two.
“Well, now that you-”
“We’re just talking. Talking about... school stuff." Smolder interrupts Yona, giving a fake, cheesy smile.
“Okay.” Silverstream said, her and Ocellus leaving the two be, closing the door behind them.
“Dragon friend alright?” Yona asks right after the two leave.
“I shouldn’t talk about it.”
Yona places her hoof on Smolder's shoulder. “Dragon is friend. Friend can trust me. Yak swear.”
Smolder just smiles at her friend. “Well, since we are good friends, I can tell you.”
“The pony’s name is-” Smolder is cut off by the sound of the school bell, signifying classes are starting for today.
