A few hours later at the Library... “SHE SAID WHAT?!” Yelled Twilight Sparkle. “So we don’t have to worry about you mixing anything up with the spirit of chaos, right?” Asked a concerned AppleJack. “If you were not my friend, AppleJack I swear... Just for suggesting that I would... Spike... Save my chapter... I think I’m going to be sick...” “Oh, um... O.k. Twilight...” Said spike. Spike put a marker on the chapter that the sickly purple unicorn was reading. Twilight went to the nearest washroom and closed the door. The sounds of her being sick could still be heard to the library population. AppleJack shook her head and sighed in relief. She sat next to a still sulking Big Macintosh, putting a hoof around his large shoulders. “Ya see Big Brother? It was just som’ misunderstand-in. She ain't after Discord and Discord don’t seem to want her neither. So brighten up and lets figure out what you are going to say to Little miss Fluttershy the next time you see her. hmm?” “I... I don’t know AppleJack... What if she don’ even have the time of day fer me? All busy with Discord and whatnot.” “Well you're gonna have to tell her sooner or later. And now it is sooner! Now Hearts and Hooves day is in two very short weeks. By that time you should be ready to sweep Fluttershy off her hooves, and show her your tender side. And if’in she does say no, at least you were truthful to her and yourself. Now lets give it that old Apple family try? Huh Big bro?” “Eeyup.” “ That's the spirit!” Said AppleJack hugging her older brother. Twilight Sparkle shook her head. She was noticeably dizzy and weak. She opened the book she was reading before back to the marked chapter and sighed. “Hey, Twilight. Since yer in the love business, you think you could help Big Macintosh here?” “No, no AppleJack, just hold it.” Interrupted Big Macintosh. “They're my feelin’s and I should be the one to deliver them.” “Yeah you been saying that for the last three years!” Snapped AppleJack. “Look, Twilight has her hooves full already with Fluttershy and Discord. So I think that we might have to swing by Rarity’s fer’ a spell or two in the ways of romance.” “Nope!” “Big Mac, you just come on already! The time is now!” Demanded AppleJack. “Nope, nope, NOPE!” Big Mac said unruly, with a stomp of his hoof. He then darted out of the Library. “Oh no you don’t!” Yelled AppleJack. “Granny-Smith is faster than you on a rainy day and butter on her hooves, so don’t think I ain’t gonna catch you!” AppleJack raced after her brother, out of the library. Twilight sighed in relief. “Hmm... what kind of things does the Princess like? Romantically... How should I even ask that?! Spike... I think this is going to be harder than I first thought.” A few days later Twilight Sparkle came to Fluttershy’s cottage with loads of notes, books and even graph charts. Twilight Had been corresponding with the Princess for four days on her favorite things and other personal likes. “Well Fluttershy, I might have gotten some extra questions that I had to dance around, about why I was inquiring such things. But I think we can work with what I have here so far.” “Yes and I have helped Discord with his table matters and other etiquette.” Said Fluttershy. “Ladies, why are you standing around for?! Please, please make yourself at home Twilight Sparkle. Rest those dear, sweet purple hooves of yours.” With the snap of his lion hand, Discord had Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy resting on top of large, soft pillows. They looked at each other as Discord started to arrange lunch on the table. The unicorn was impressed. And even a little dumbfounded that Discord was actually willing to work on his matters for the sake of impressing someone who she thought that he once despised. “Wow Fluttershy... he really cares about Impressing the Princess.” “Yes he does! isn't it adorable?” Fluttershy asked. “It... It actually is. And very pleasant. I just hope that he does not go overboard and not try to be something that he isn’t. He should be himself, on his own free will like Celestia wanted.” “Oh no, I’m making sure that he communicated with me everything that he is feeling. We take walks along the edge of the EverFree Forest. Have breakfast on a cloud and dinner underwater within a magical bubble.” “Um... Fluttershy... I-” “He has told me so much. Very personal things. His wants and dreams and wishes. He is so afraid that he might mess up because he has not really been very social. But I assure him and sometimes we... We both cry. Then in return I share things with him... even things that I haven’t told you guys.” “Oh, gosh... Fluttershy, listen-” “Discord and I have become so very close... He has become such a big part of me. I’m braver and more outgoing of a pony more than I was before. He has made me a better pony... And I just want to make him happy.” “Even if that means that he is with someone else?” Asked Twilight quietly. “Why would he ever be with anyone else? Discord and I are... Oh... He wants... Oh my...” TO BE CONTINUED!!!
