//------------------------------// // What now? // Story: My little Love Story. // by Layla Bell //------------------------------// "Alright... Fluttershy told me to meet her here. I'm so nervous!" Layla stands outside the entrance to the Popcorn Movie Theater, digging into the ground with her front right hoof. She's wearing a cute little pink and black tie in her hair to compliment her mane. "Should I wear this bow? What if she thinks it's tacky or doesn't like it? What if she goes off to her friends and makes fun of me about it? Gah!" She kicks a large clump of dirt a few feet away and Fluttershy sneaks up behind her. "Yay." Fluttershy says with a cute, quiet tone, which sends Layla jumping up in the air, hanging there for a few seconds before landing back down. "F-fluttershy! H-hey! You almost scared the wings off me..." Fluttershy giggles "I'm truly sorry, I just had to see how cute you would look scared~" Layla smiles gently, blushing lightly. "I-it's okay, Fluttershy. Just don't do it again." Shy looks around before turning back to Layla. "Why do you think we're here?" Layla looks confused. "I never actually thought about it." Shy giggles once more. "We're going on a date, filly." Layla flushes a deep deep red. "A-a d-d-date?" Fluttershy nods with a big smile. "B-but two m-mares can't... c-can they?" Fluttershy nods. "O-oh..." Shy grabs Laylas hoof and pulls her inside the movies. Two hours pass and the two ponies walk out of the theater. "Wow, that was a great movie!" Fluttershy says with a smile. "Y-yeah. I liked the part when she saved the rabbits." "Aww! So cute!" Fluttershy gives Layla a big hug, which makes Layla flush deep red again. "Ahh..." "Come on, Lay, I'll walk you home." Layla tries to hide her smile. "O-okay." Both Layla and Fluttershy walk to Layla's house, talking about the movie that they had just watched. They reach Layla's front door and stand there, staring into one-anothers eyes. "I-I had a fun time Flu-" Fluttershy interrupts Layla's sentence with a kiss on the snout, sending Layla's wings straight up. "I did too~" "I-I-I-I-I" Layla is unable to fathom any words. Fluttershy giggles and starts to fly away. "I'll come over tomorrow, cutie. And you may want to do something about those wings~" Layla stands frozen until Fluttershy is fully out of view, and she collapses onto her plot, smiling, blushing and sighing happily. "I think I may be in "love"."
