After mom told me what I have to do, I decided I am going to confess my feelings for Sweetie Belle. Mom gave me some useful advice, but I feel nervous. Applebloom already went back home, she had a stomach ache. So it was just me and Sweetie Belle, but something was different, there was something around me, I looked down to find Sweetie Belle asleep, hugging me. I wanted to wake her up, but I also wanted to stay like this, she was kind of cute when she was sleeping. I decided to embrace the feeling and closed my eyes, welcoming the new feeling.
She started to stir under me, she lifted her head up, and I looked into her green eyes and couldn't hold back a smile.
It took a moment for her to realize what she was doing, she jumped back, blushing, "Sorry, Scootaloo, I don't know what happened." She was embarrassed for what she did.
"It's alright, Sweetie Belle, were friends, it shouldn't matter if we hug each other." I said, trying to comfort her.
"Yes, but I don't think it's right!"
"It's okay," I walked up to her and hugged her again, "it's fine, I don't mind it."
"Are you sure? It seemed a little awkward." She just stood there, still blushing.
"Lets just hang out, try to get this off our minds, if it's okay with you." I asked, starting to blush myself.
She appeared to be thinking about it. "Okay, let's go."She agreed.
I took mom's advice and took her somewhere where we could just watch the clouds. The field was covered in flowers and we were just laying in the middle of them. There was no way anypony would be around this place. I turned to Sweetie Belle, she was laying down staring at the clouds, there were a few weather ponies flying around, but I didn't think they'd notice us. Sweetie Belle closed her eyes, a smile on her face.
I couldn't help but smile myself, I was with my best friend, who also happened to be my crush. Seeing her next to me was starting to start something in my chest, it felt warm, but nice.
I moved toward Sweetie Belle, sliding myself over slowly. I stopped when we almost touched, I wanted to be as close to her as possible without making things awkward. The sun was still in the sky, but it was close to sunset, the sun was shining it's different colors across the sky as it started to dip behind the horizon. I looked over to Sweetie Belle, and she opened her eyes again. We stood up, getting ready to head back, when I finally spoke, "Sweetie Belle," she turned to me, curious, "Yes, Scootaloo?"
There was no turning back now, "I need to tell you something, I just don't know how to put it."
"You can tell me anything, Scootaloo, we're best friends."
"Okay," my words were stuck in my throat, "I like you, Sweetie Belle." I braced myself for what was next.
"I like you too, Scootaloo." She responded, confused.
"No, that's not what I mean, I like-like you. I kinda have a crush on you. I want you to be my very special somepony." I closed my eyes, not knowing if she would accept it or not. But all I felt was pressure on my lips, I opened my eyes and saw Sweetie Belle kissing me, it was a nice feeling, my heart started racing. I closed my eyes again and kissed back. This was my first love, and I didn't want this moment to end, if it did, it would be too soon. She wrapped her hooves around my neck and pulled me closer, trying to bring us closer than physically possible. We held the kiss for several moments, when we broke it, we were gazing into each other's eyes. We leaned in for another hug, embracing it.
"I love you, Scootaloo, I feel the same way." Sweetie Belle said at last.
Was that what I was feeling, love? "I love you too, Sweetie Belle."
I took Sweetie Belle back home, the sun was already gone.
"Goodnight, Sweetie Belle." I told her before she went inside.
She turned around and planted a soft kiss on my cheek. "Goodnight, Scootaloo."
I went back home after that, mom would be waiting for me. As I walked up to the door, I couldn't help but remember the kiss. It was my first, but the best feeling ever. I walked inside, and my parents were waiting for me.
"Where have you been, Scootaloo, we've been worried." Twilight asked me.
"I was hanging out with Sweetie Belle." I answered, not going to lie to my own parents.
"It's alright, Twilight, I'll talk to her, get some sleep." Violet said.
"Very well, goodnight." She walked up the stairs, leaving me and mom alone.
Then she turned to me, and whispered, "So, how'd it go? Did you tell her?" She asked me.
I simply nodded, and described everything up until the kiss.
"So it worked out then?" She asked, smiling.
"Yes, thanks for the advice, mom."
"I'm happy to help," she said, patting my shoulder, "now get to bed, I've still got to talk to your mother, she's not happy with you."
"I know, but I won't stay out late again." I promised.
"Okay, Scootaloo, get to bed."
"Okay, goodnight, mom."
"Goodnight, Scootaloo."
