“Instead of a diary, Fluttershy...I want to tell it tonight.” said Trey, surprising her.
“Oh...ok then.”
“Trust me, we’ll read it later.” he added, smiling at her. “Now...” he began.
“...I’m going to skip the parts with Twilight and get right back to the good stuff. I had to leave your house after you returned the gift, sadly. You wanted to make me breakfast...but I had to...” he started, cracking up. “...give you a...rain check.” he finished, bursting out in laughter, remembering Fluttershy’s confusion. She laughed with him, eventually subsiding. “You were just so cute right then...funny, undoubtedly, but cute.” he added, stroking her side. “Anyways, throughout the days ahead, I learned things about you. Uh...” he said, remembering that he wasn’t supposed to know before he told her.
“What kinds of things?” she asked, smiling at him.
“Well...” he started, thinking something up quickly. “...the more I thought about it, I learned just how beautiful and kind you were. How perfect your coat was, how perfect your mane was, how perfect you were, and still are, I might add.” he finished, kissing her. She blushed heavily, once again, returning the favor. Trey sighed in relief as Fluttershy urged him to continue.
“Well, anyway, you visited me late at night and told me something I never knew. And...”
“...you listened to me patiently.” she added, interrupting him. “Just listening to that was one of the kindest gestures I’ve ever received. I know I probably shared too much, but...you still listened and didn’t judge me.” she added, nuzzling her nose into his chest. “And, I got to return the favor soon enough when you admitted some things to me.”
“And you simply listening was all I needed. The fact that you didn’t run away means so much to me.” he started, stroking her nose with his hoof. “In fact...all I need is you.”
Fluttershy looked up at him curiously. Sure, she’d heard the line hundreds of times before but it never ceased to make her feel special. She couldn’t help but smile and look away. She knew exactly what he’d do next, and she loved it.
He brought his hoof under her chin, making her look at him. She gave him those eyes he loved, staring deep into his soul. Then, as always, they passionately kissed each other, Trey cradling her face with his hoof, Fluttershy leaning heavily into him. She kind of liked being under his control, hence her leaning heavily upon him.
“I love you.” she managed to say between kisses. Trey simply hummed a simple “uh huh” before releasing, staring into her eyes.
“I love you too.” he added, flipping out the lights, casually slipping the covers over them.

“C’mon! It’s Friday! Friday! Gotta get up on Friday!” yelled Trey, waking the foals up. “It’s the final day of your first week of school! Everypony’s looking forward to the weekend, come on!”
“Just 5 more minutes...” said Anacrusis, sluggishly stirring.
“NOPE!” said Trey, trotting over, Picking Anacrusis up out of bed and trotting about the room with him on his back. Anacrusis played dead on his father’s back. “Now get moving! Are you really going to let Flutterwing beat you?” he added, pointing to her, who was already up, brushing her mane. Anacrusis had the typical musician’s sense of superiority...he was bound to be a trumpet.
“No way!” he added, hopping off Trey’s back to get ready.
“Works every time.” he said to himself, greeting Fluttershy in the kitchen.
“Good morning!” she said, preparing a delicious feast.
“Another good breakfast as always?” asked Trey, giving her a quick peck on the cheek.
“I hope so.” she added, smiling, as Flutterwing and Anacrusis trotted inside.
“Good morning Mommy!” said Flutterwing, smiling innocently at Fluttershy as she marched in. Anacrusis Forgot about greeting either parents and quickly settled at the table, ready to chow down.
“Good morning, Anacrusis!” said Fluttershy.
“Oh! Good morning Mom! Good morning Dad!” he added, quickly catching himself. He was taught good manners. They made sure he followed them.
After a nice family breakfast, Trey trotted Anacrusis and Flutterwing to school, Fluttershy not too far behind. Cheerilee smiled as they trotted up, eager to see the foals again.
“They haven’t given you too much trouble I hope?” asked Fluttershy.
“Oh, no, not at all.” she added, giving Anacrusis a small look of encouragement, as if to say ‘Watch it’. “They’re both well behaved, especially Flutterwing. I’m sure they’re both sad to see the week end. Now, go on inside, you two! We have something special planned today!” she said, to which the kids happily trotted inside. “It was a pleasure seeing you ponies again! I guess I’ll see you once school ends!”
“Of course.” said Trey, bidding her farewell. He and Fluttershy trotted off back towards the cottage. He still had about an hour before high school started, so he planned to make the most of his time with her.
“Guess what?” asked Trey, shortly before they reached the cottage.
“What?” asked Fluttershy.
“Tickle.” he said, nuzzling his nose into her neck, making her laugh out loud. She tried to return the favor, but he hurriedly trotted off back towards the house, making her follow him. She smiled to herself. He was goofy sometimes, but she loved that about him. But all the same, he would pay for it.

Had to give Twilight a piece of my mind today.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure she’s a great filly at heart, but she has some...odd...intentions going on right now. She seems as if she’s almost trying to sabotage Fluttershy and I. Today she decided to “interview” me (Which was complete bullcrap because she didn’t bring any notebook paper or quills.) I decided to put up with her game. She’s had something odd going on with her recently, and I’ve been trying to figure out what. This is where years of social ineptness plays into my abnormally good sense of psychology.
So she asks me questions, and I answer them slightly sarcastically, giving her the bland answer to everything. Eventually, Fluttershy comes back and she interviews us together. Now, for whatever reason, she thinks it’s a good idea to ask us if we’ve done it. Of course, I warned her against it. But she persisted, mentioning something about the “sexual revolution.” which I never wanted to be a part of. Of course, Fluttershy, with her history, started crying, and I had to soothe her. She yelled at me, but it looks like she got that part out of her system.
Afterwards, I went to give Twilight a piece of my mind. I launched into a spiel about how I’m different, my erotophobia and basiexia, how books won’t help her learn anything about love, and that she generally needs to stop trying to sabotage Fluttershy’s relationship with me. Of course, she denied trying to do so, but I could see it in her eyes. I’ve never been filled with so much rage as that day...maybe the following days after Fleur broke up with me, but Twilight...the way she generalized me with other colts, after I’ve spent my life tyring to be different...that really upset me. I had to lay it straight with her...I felt terrible afterwards but she hurt Fluttershy and that’s not forgivable in my book.
I’d better rest up. School and stuff. Away from Fluttershy, tomorrow’s bound to be uneventful.
Ready for the uneventfully eventful,
Trey
