Fluttershy's Secret

"Fluttershy," a tear rolled down his cheek, "Don't cry."

"P-Parker!! I'm sorry!" she hugged him tightly.

"Don't be sorry, I brought something for you!" Parker handed her the basket.

Fluttershy looked at the basket, she pushed it away, not even opening it.

"Fluttershy, why are you so sad?" Parker asked, sitting next to her.

She looked at him, tears forming in her eyes, "Well, I like somebody."

"You can tell me." he said kindly.

"No, you'd hate me." even though Parker already knew, that would have given it away.

"Fluttershy, I...I.." Parker looked at her.

"It's you." Fluttershy leaned against him, crying into his shirt.

"Fluttershy, i, I'm a human, you're a pony, I, you're the nicest, most generous, most amazing pony I've ever met, but I, I don't know." Parker was sad to not be able to accept this.

Ten minutes of silence passed, Fluttershy broke the silence,

"It's crazy, love." Fluttershy wiped her eyes as she looked up at the sky.

Parker didn't respond, instead, he showed her what was in the basket, her favorite treat.

"Oh Parker." she hugged him, "This was so thoughtful!"

"No problem Fluttershy." Parker smiled.

She gracefully picked up the cupcake, she took the tiniest bite out of it, Parker's heart nearly exploded out of adorableness.

"Parker? Are you okay?" Fluttershy looked at Parker who had the D'awwwwwwwwwwww face on.

"Yeah, oh, yeah, I'm fine." he said, blushing slightly.

"Good, thank you for the cupcake." Fluttershy smiled slightly.

"Your welcome." Parker said warmly, making Fluttershy smile a little more openly.

A little time passed before Fluttershy broke the silence.

"Parker, why do you hate your world so much, I can't understand why."

Parker sighed, "Are you sure you want ot hear the whole story?"

"Yes." Fluttershy nodded.

"Well, it all started three years ago, I was entering the fifth grade, my three friends, Seth, Cole, adn Ben all moved away, they left me, alone," he paused, "In the sixth grade, people did horrible things, things that would make you fear my world."

"Do you want to tell me?" Fluttershy asked sincerely.

"No," he sighed, "In the seventh grade, I made a new friend, her name was Jessica, she was being bullied constantly, so, in the play, Romeo and Juliet, at the end, instead of using a fake knife to stab herself, she used a real one, I saw her die, she looked into my eyes." he wiped his eyes.

This brought tears to Fluttershy's eyes, she hugged him for a minute, then he continued,

"In the beginning of this year, I was being bullied horribly again, this time though, it was worse, I had considered suicide on many occasions, I had to be strong though, so I just took it all." he finished, crying along with Fluttershy.

"That's horrible, but, but guess what." Fluttershy said in between tears.

"What?" he asked solemnly.

"I'm glad you're here." she smiled.

"What are you doing?" Gabe's little sister asked, he was about to leave his house at 1 am.

"I'm going to find Parker." he closed the door, and walked down his street.

"Where are we?" Nancy asked.

"Ponyville, the place where he is." Trixie said.
