I remember waking up in a bed, not comfortable or uncomfortable either.
I sat on the bed, but I couldn't see anything, my vision was black, until my eyes got used and I realized I was in a room: a hospital room.
I looked at the window of the room, on the right, it was night time. Then I looked at the door on the opposite side, there were some lights turned on.
I tried to get up but I noticed something on my side. I turned on a lamp next to me.
There she was, looking as peaceful as she did on the train to Canterlot.
"Fluttershy."
I stroke her mane a little, and she moved. So I turned off the lamp and with a lock of her hair entangled in my hoof I drifted off to sleep again.
I woke up again, it was daytime now. Fluttershy wasn't there, but I saw a bag in a chair right under the window, maybe she went out to do something.
I just laid down in my bed looking at the ceiling for a while, thinking of what happened this last week; the kiss at the train, the fight with Shining and with my dad, and the unicorn that once we helped, turned against us.
I looked around again and realized that this wasn't the hospital of Canterlot.
Then Fluttershy entered the room.
"Oh Flare thanks Celestia you are awake!" she ran to me for a hug "How are you? Are you okay? Is there something I can do for you?" she rushed her speech.
"Fluttershy I'm OK, don't worry." I assured her laughing a little "where am I anyway?"
"You are in the hospital." she said.
"Well duh, why am I dressed like this if this wasn't a hospital?" I joked showing the green attire I was wearing "I'm asking where this hospital is."
"Oh sorry, this is the Ponyville hospital." she replied.
"Ah so you brought me here from Canterlot?" I asked.
She looked at me weirdly.
"Um, we never left Ponyville Flare." she said.
I made her an intrigued face, then laughed.
"Good one Fluttershy!"
"I wasn't joking."
I stopped laughing and looked at her.
"Please tell me you REALLY are joking."
"Well um, I could, but I'd be lying" she said.
Something wasn't right, I hit my face to see if this wasn't a dream, it hurt.
"Something's not right here" I said while poking my chin "if we didn't go to Canterlot, then what did we do this week?"
"I took care of you, while you slept all week." she answered
"Slept all week?"
"Yes, after the thievery we were victims of, you passed out. And didn't wake up until today."
My eyes were wide open now.
"So I didn't pass out, I was in a coma!" I exclaimed.
"Um, I think so." she replied, a little scared "Besides, the doctors kept track of your reactions while you were asleep."
"In a coma" I corrected.
"Please don't say that" she said while covering her ears "I don't like that word!"
"Okay okay! Wait, kept track of my reactions?"
"Yes, they take note on the reactions and changes of the patients."
"Let me see that."
She gave me a little board at the end of my bed and gave it to me.
Day 1: More colour on the cheeks - Night time
Day 2: Reaction (spine curved upwards) - Night time
Day 3: Reaction (turning head in different periods of time) - Around noon
Day 4: Nothing remarkable.
Day 5: Reaction (body shakes) - Noon
Day 6: Reaction (body shakes) - Morning
Reaction (body shakes) - Night time
Now everything made sense, and at the same time, it didn't.
The kiss, the light becoming brighter, skipping time, my doubt about the cutie mark appearing, and the battle with Shining, dad and that unicorn.
Everything was a dream.
"Does this tell you something Flare?" Fluttershy asked.
"Yeah, it does." I replied, and told her what I dreamed this whole time.
I only skipped the part of our kiss, I didn't want her to think bad of me, or to startle or confuse her. I didn't want to ruin the friendship between us.
But I can't think of her as a friend anymore.
Even if it was a lie, that kiss made me realize how I feel about her.
