Tim managed to fall asleep again following his little episode with the pillow, but he didn’t meet up with Iron Will again. After what felt like seconds to Tim his alarm went off, Tim made sure to be careful when turning of the alarm this time as he couldn’t afford to be replacing his clock everyday.
With a loud yawn and a stretch Tim got out of his bed and started his half asleep morning march to the kitchen. As he walked he tried to ignore all the damage that had been done to the house over the last couple of days, his broken door, the hole in the wall and the water stained carpets, but it wasn’t easy. ‘This is going to cost a fortune to get this all fixed up’ Tim thought to himself, as he was about to enter the living room he could hear someone was in there already and was talking to someone. It took a couple of second but Tim recognised the voice of the person talking it was Cheerilee's or more accurately Alex in Cheerilee's body. Not wanting to interrupt what Alex but still curious as to what he was doing Tim stood by the doorway and listened into what Alex was saying.
“-sounds good” Alex said, Tim could then just make out someone responding on what Tim could only assume was the phone. “Will do, I’ll call back later with the rest of my detail and organise a time for me to start. Thanks for the help bye.” *Click
With the conversation over Tim walks into the kitchen and sees Alex in there puting the phone down. This made Tim even more curious, he had so many questions flying around his head, Who was Alex talking to?, Why was he doing it so early in the morning? and How did Alex use the phone in the first place? Tim gave his head a shake to help himself focus on the matter at hand not get distracted by how ponies use their hooves.
Now standing behind Alex, who still hadn’t noticed that Tim had entered the room, “So who was that” Tim asked
Alex jumped a couple of meters into the air and landed on his back with his legs in the air like a fainting goat. Tim could help but laugh at what had just happened, while he was Alex manages to get back up and he give his brother an angry glare “Don't do that!” he half yells at Tim.
Tim manages to stop laughing and shrugs “I was just wondering who you were speaking to on the phone”
The expression on Alex’s face went from one of anger to that of nervousness “Um, ergh no one I was speaking to no one. It was a wrong number, yeah a wrong number.” While talking Alex’s eyes shift side to side and once finished he gives Tim a huge false smile.
Tim doesn’t believe what Alex had just said for a second and normally he would be all over this and pressuring his little brother to spill the bean but today he decided to show him a little kindness he was going to let this one slide they had both gone through some dramatic changes and some were bigger than others. “Ok, I was just wondering” he responds
Alex gave a sigh of relief at this, but then he appeared confused he looked up to Tim and asked “What are you doing up this early? You're not normally a morning person”
It was true Tim wasn’t really a morning person and if he had his way he would sleep into noon everyday if he had the choice but he an important reason to be up this early today. “Well I’ve got work why else would I be up this early”
Alex seemed a bit taken back by this “You're going to go to work like this?” Alex asked while gesturing at Tim.
“Of course I am, I have work and unlike you my new transformation doesn’t really hinder me doing my job plus Josh has gone away on holiday and I’m covering for him so there is no one else to cover for me today”
“I’m not going to be able to change your mind I’m I?” Alex asked
“Nope” Tim says with a shake of his head “But lets not focus on that lets have some breakfast I’ll make it”
“Deal”, Alex makes his way over to the couch and sits down to wait for Tim to make breakfast
Tim makes his way over to the fridge to see what he should make, he looks through the fridge to find something that is suitable for both Alex and him to eat. Tim finally decided to cook some eggs as he knew that ponies could eat them from the show and he could pretty much eat anything he could from when he was still human. As Tim started to cook the eggs he started to have a warm fuzzy feeling start to come over him, it continued to grow until he couldn’t contain it anymore he had to let it out he had to.... Sing!
“My name is Pinkie Pie (Hello!)
And I am here to say (How ya doin?)
I'm gonna make you smile and I will brighten up your day
It doesn't matter now (What's up?)
If you are sad or blue (Howdy!)
'Cause cheering up my friends is just what Pinkie's here to do”
Tim looked over to Alex to see how he was doing and Alex was looking at him with a confused look on his face but that quickly disappeared and what happened next was the biggest surprise to Tim, he started to sing the next verse of the song
“ 'Cause I love to make you smile, smile, smile
Yes I do
It fills my heart with sunshine all the while
Yes it does
'Cause all I really need's a smile, smile, smile
From these happy friends of mine”
Tim and Alex smile at each other as Tim starts to sing the next verse.
“I like to see you grin (Awesome!)
I love to see you beam (Rock on!)
The corners of your mouth turned up is always Pinkie's dream (Hoof bump!)
But if you're kind of worried
And your face has made a frown
I'll work real hard and do my best to turn that sad frown upside down”
Tim puts down the spatula and forgets about the eggs and goes over to Alex and they both start singing the song together.
“ 'Cause I love to make you grin, grin, grin
Yes I do
Bust it out from ear to ear let it begin
Just give me a joyful grin, grin, grin
And you fill me with good cheer
It's true some days are dark and lonely
And maybe you feel sad
But Pinkie will be there to show you that it isn't that bad
There's one thing that makes me happy and makes my whole life worthwhile
And that's when I talk to my friends and get them to smile
I really am so happy
Your smile fills me with glee
I give a smile I get a smile
And that's so special to me
'Cause I love to see you beam, beam, beam
Yes I do
Tell me what more can I say
To make you see
That I do”
Tim picks up Alex and puts him on his shoulder, Alex is initially surprised but then he smiles again and the continue to sing the song together while marching around the room just like they did during the song in the episode.
“It makes me happy when you beam, beam, beam
Yes it always makes my day
Come on every pony smile, smile, smile
Fill my heart up with sunshine, sunshine
All I really need's a smile, smile, smile
From these happy friends of mine
Come on every pony smile, smile, smile
Fill my heart up with sunshine, sunshine
All I really need's a smile, smile, smile
From these happy friends of mine
Tim then starts to sing Pinkies line during the song while Alex sing the background part
Yes the perfect gift for me (Come on every pony smile, smile, smile)
Is a smile as wide as a mile (Fill my heart up with sunshine, sunshine)
To make me happy as can be (All I really need's a smile, smile, smile; From these happy friends of)
Then Tim and Alex sung together
Smile, smile, smile, smile, smile
Come on and smile
Come on and smile”
Once they had finished sing Tim and Alex collapsed down on the couch together and started to laugh. After laughing for a while they both suddenly stopped as a sudden realisation came over them they looked to each other the happiness gone now replaced by worry, Tim was the first to speak “Did I what I think just happen just happen”
“If you mean we just performed a musical number for no reason then yes” Alex responded
“Lets agree to never speak of this again, deal”
“Deal”
With that settled they both sat up but then Alex asked Tim something “Hey Tim do you smell something burning?”
“THE EGGS!” Tim shouted
