"My name is Layla. I write poems for a living; it's my forte you see.
Layla frowns, but it still happy on the inside, knowing someone is actually listening to and caring about her.
"Why do you harm yourself?"
Fluttershy asks with a sense of concern and wonder.
Layla wipes the remaining tears off her face as she forces herself to tell.
"I... w-well... u-uhh... I hate myself... I want to die. There's nothing good about me. I'm worthless and I'll never be happy and find someone who "loves" me."
Fluttershy nudges her side.
"Tsk tsk tsk... you big filly."
Fluttershy grabs her around the waist and pulls the crying pony towards her, gently spooning her.
Layla flushes a deep red as her eyes open wide in embarrassment.
"W-what are you doing?"
Fluttershy giggles.
"What's it look like? I'm cuddling you~
You're so lonely and sad. You really need it. Whenever you want to, just let me know and I'll come faster then a Sonic Rainboom!"
Layla smiles, shyly.
"O-okay..."
Fluttershy giggles.
"Told ya I'd make you smile~"
Fluttershy leans in close to Layla's ear and whispers something. Layla's ears go straight up as by some form of magic, she blushes even redder than she already was.
"I-I-I-I... o-okay."
Fluttershy giggles once more and carefully lets go of Layla before winking and flying off.
