I took it upon myself to let you know just how I feel about my final decision. I chose not to tell the others about this as it would only hurt them. I had that dream again last night. The one about Angel and I going to a magical place, a place up in the stars where we could be happy together. It always feels so real to me when I'm in that place, I feel at peace with everything. Do you know what that feels like? I have been doing what I promised you ever since I first told you about it, visiting him almost every day. I like to read him his favourite story, hoping that he will forgive me for doing what I'm about to do. If only he knew that I still loved him, seeing him smile again would take the pain away. After I made the final preparations I went to see Rarity for a few hours, where I told her that wearing her new dress made her look gorgeous. She was surprised when I gave her my favorite plant to look after, so I told her that I was going away for quite a while. She asked me where I was going but I couldn't tell her because putting such news on a friend could really hurt them, and they would join you in feeling the pain you feel. Do you know what pain feels like? She wanted to take me to the spa as a going away present. The guilt was burning deep down inside of me, and I wanted to tell her so bad, Diary. But I guess you have to look your best, given such an occasion. Once I returned to my cottage, I sat by the window and listened to the sounds of the wildlife in the forest. It was calming to know that all of the animals were at peace. It was a beautiful day today, the pegasi had been told make sure that the sky was clear for a few days. I looked down to the floor of my cottage, that feeling slowly creeping back up on me. But it was too late to go back now. Do you know what regret feels like? I'm sorry Diary, but it's almost time to say goodbye. I think we have had some special moments, you and I. Writing that made me giggle, I like rhymes. I must go now, time is almost up for me... *** I laid the quill down and sat in silence. It felt good, telling Diary how I had spent my day. It made me happy, a feeling I haven't felt in a while. I trotted over to the chair and climbed onto it, grabbing the rope for support. I steadied myself and stood firmly on the chair before lowering the noose around my neck. I tightened it, closed my eyes and kicked back the chair. After a few short moments, I opened my eyes. "Wha—" I gasped in shock. "I'm not letting you do this Fluttershy." Geo said as he held his arms around me, thus preventing my fall. He quickly removed the rope from my neck and placed me down on the floor before glancing over the the open door, where I saw Twilight. She simply nodded as Geo stood by her side. "I guess you'll have to wait just a little bit longer Angel." I whispered as I looked down at the floor. The feeling of regret had won.
