//------------------------------// // Picture This! Picture That! // Story: A Tale of a Loving Sister: Better Together Short Stories - Volume I // by GoebelTron //------------------------------// When Sunset and Chase made it to school, Sunset suddenly realized that today was Picture Day. Chase wore a green polo shirt with a white color and blue khaki overalls. They saw the girls walk over to them, and they walked over to class, but Chase went to class by himself, and he saw his classmates dressed up. When he sat down, he took out some of his toys he got for his birthday and then started playing a dinosaur attack with them. Suddenly, the door opened and it showed Rarity coming in with her makeup bag. “Sorry to intrude, Mrs. Chrysalis, but could I borrow Chase Tucker? I just need to do something for him.” Rarity asked. “Of course, but make it quick,” Mrs. Chrysalis said. Chase stood up, then Rarity placed him on an empty stool, unzipped her makeup bag, and applied some hair gel onto his hair and then softly rubbed the gel around every corner of his hair and then combed it. “Aww... you look smashing, darling,” Rarity said, the she kissed him on the nose, until she gave him a hug. “Alright, I will see you at the gymnasium for our pictures.” Rarity then left the room after she gave Chase a blow kiss. “Alright, children. Put your toys away, so that we can start a quick review before we go to the gym for our pictures,” Mrs. Chrysalis said. The students were in the gymnasium getting their pictures taken. When it was her turn, Sunset went up, sat down on the stool, straightened her hair back a little so that the camera could see her face, and then she got her picture taken. When she was done and more students got their pictures taken, the line lasted a little while until Twilight, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy were having theirs taken, then the line continued on and on. Suddenly, the preschool kids were having their pictures taken, and Chase was in between a couple students. When he went to the stool, he sat down and gave a soft smile, then he got his picture taken. When he was done, he met up with his classmates, and until they were all done, they went back to the classroom to get ready for recess. After school, Chase was playing with the classroom toys, until he saw Rarity walk in with her backpack. “Hello, darling,” Rarity said. Chase got up and went to give her a hug. “If you’re wondering why I’m here again, Miss Blue Belle, Sunset asked me to pick up Chase and watch over him until Sunset is done with an assignment she forgot to turn in. She’ll probably be done soon.” Miss Blue Belle understood, “Okay, Rarity. That’s fine. Nice job on his hair, though.” Rarity giggled with her fingers on her lips, “Thank you, Miss Blue Belle. I appreciate the kindness. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a friend who’s waiting to take her little brother home. Come along, darling.” Rarity then took Chase’s hand and they walked to Mr. Cranky Doodle’s homeroom to meet up with Sunset. When they got there, the girls were looking over their pictures from today. “Hey, that’s a nice smile I made. Even like the background,” Rainbow Dash said. “Ya said it,” Applejack said. The girls continued to make comments about their pictures, until Rarity felt a gentle tug on her purple skirt, she saw Chase with puppy eyes, “Where’s mine?” Sunset realized he also had his pictures taken, until Twilight found the envelope with Chase’s name on it and gave it to her. “Let’s all take a look,” Sunset said. When she opened the envelope and took out Chase’s picture, they all made a “d’awwww” reaction to his handsomely cuteness. “He’s so cute!” Fluttershy said. “I know,” Rarity said. “Chase, you really made yourself look handsome,” Sunset said. “But how’d you manage to get your hair combed with gel?” “Rarity did it,” Chase replied, until he went to her and wrapped his arms around her leg and nuzzled his cheek around her waist. “You’re welcome, darling,” Rarity said, until she hugged him back. Sunset then rolled her eyes and smirked with a soft chuckle.
