A Sweet and Shy Summer

by Treblebeat

Hush Now, Quiet Now

I didn't wake up this morning. I didn't even sleep. I just laid there all night, wide awake, thinking of only her, my conflicting emotions about her. Do I love her or do I hate her? I couldn't decide! I really want to love her, but after what she said it was hard...

I got up anyway, I might as well not get bed sores. I still did nothing, I just sat there in the middle of the floor. I sat there for an hour before my mind was overworked and I began to cry. I couldn't help it. I just sobbed and cried wanting all of this to end. I cried and cried and cried with nopony to comfort me. I might as well get used to it.

I cried for hours until I felt a sudden tap on my shoulder. "Pinkie...?" I heard someone ask. I turned around, sniffling, seeing Fluttershy. I looked right into her eyes.

I wiped my eyes, sniffling more, "What do you want...?" I asked, "What do you want with somepony as stupid and pointless as me? I know you're only here to make me feel better, but you couldn't care less... No pony likes me..."

"That's not tr--" she began, I didn't want to hear it, I know what she said!

"Yes it is!" I interupted, "You said so yourself! You said I was stupid! You're not my friend! You only spent time with me because you felt sorry for me! Same with the others!" I was sobbing, my sentences were getting harder to complete. I couldn't stop crying, I was rejected, no one loved me, no one will. Suddenly, she hugged me... Tight, gently petting me with her gentle hoof as I continued to sob, my tears soaking her mane and shoulders.

I kept crying, her petting and holding never ceased. I didn't do the same, I couldn't especially after what she said. But then, I heard it... I heard her heavenly singing. It sounded like... My song, the song I lived by...

As she sang, my mane and tail poofed up again. I knew that just by that, she did care about me... Maybe even loved me... I instantly hugged her back, feeling her own tears on my shoulder, she was crying now too... I pet her and held her as she held me. We stayed locked in our loving embrace for a while before we broke the hug, smiling at each other, our eyes soaked. Our tears wouldn't stop and somehow I knew, she was happy, they were tears of joy, as were mine.

I decided I would do it, I would just do it. I quickly leaned in and kissed her without thinking she would reject me or get angry at me. I had to do it. She then kissed me back, that was the biggest shock. Does that mean she loved me too? No, probably not, I'm over thinking things now, aren't I? I still had to tell her now, "Fluttershy... I... I lo--"

She then put her hoof to my lips softly, stopping me from talking. "I know... I love you too..." she said... I suddenly grinned wider then I ever have before, we were in love, happy... Together. She suddenly kissed me this time. I immediately kissed her back, wanting to hold her.

When we broke the kiss, I saw RD. I began to giggle like a little girl, she had probably been watching the whole time. How could I not have noticed this? Oh right, because I focused on her... Fluttershy, the love of my life.

Flutters turned around and saw her, blushing deeply and turning away. I giggled and went over to her and began to pet her head slightly, "Sorry Dashie, but I don't love you," I said, giggling softly.

"That's what I thought..." she whispered, grinning a bit as she flew away.

I then remembered, that cake! That cake I made for this very occassion! She said yes so it's the perfect time to bring it out! I grinned wide and turned around, looking at her right in the eye, "What are you thinking?" she asked.

"Oh nothing, I just went and made..." I said, holding the "a" for as long as I could, trotting to the closet, pulling out the cake in question. On it, was "Pinkie + Flutters 4 ever" writen in yellow and pink frosting with butterflies and balloons all around the text because I thought it was cute.. There were also little standees of Flutters and I on the cake Those took a lot of time to make them. It was a laber of love. "This!" She blushed deeply, looking flabbergasted. I love that word! Flabbergasted, flabbergasted, flabbergasted! "So it's your choice Flutters, do you want to eat it, or we can put it away and never eat it, put it on display?" I asked.

Flutters looked confused, almost as if she didn't know what to do. Did I break her? I hope I didn't! "I... I don't know..." she said. She thought for a bit longer before sighing, "Pinkie, how about instead of showing it off, we keep it in a place that only we know where it is."

"Ooooooooh! That's a great idea!" I said. I went over to her and hugged her tight, picking her up like a teddy bear and taking her to my bed for a cuddle session. She cuddled me back and had her head in my neck, as I rested my head on hers. We loved each other and I knew it.

She turned her head a bit to look at me, "I love you..." she said.

I smiled and kissed her cheek softly, "I love you too..." I said. We got back in our original position as she slowly fell asleep in my arms. I kissed her forehead softly, "Good night cupcake..." I said, resting my head on hers again. I pet her softly, singing her song.

I didn't add my own lyrics like she did for my song, but I knew she wouldn't mind. I gently fell asleep with her, holding her tight.
