"Gone...she is going to b-be......gone. Forever." I slowly said to Blaze as he was looking at me in shock. He was thinking of something to say. My eyes were fixed at looking at the floor and nothing else. "She said she is leaving later tonight. What do I do? I can't find a single thing to say. How do I stop this? How?" I said as I kept looking at the floor. Blaze put his hoof over my back and I couldn't hold in the tears anymore. I started to feel the drops rolling off my face and impacting the floor.
"Don't worry about it Mist. You did the best you could, and be proud of that. Stuff happens, it's sad to say but sometimes things are just.......too good to be true." He slowly said to me as he noticed I was starting to cry. He tapped my back twice and sat up in his seat in class. I kept looking down and saw nothing but tears and...her. Only her. I could feel nothing in my chest but pain. I tried to look up, but I couldn't. That Monday was the slowest in the whole world. Nothing could have made it go faster. I had tried to make myself happy, but nothing could fill the void. When it was time for lunch, I sat there at the table her and I sat at and just looked at the floor. I could see happy memories of her. I could see her smile, I could hear her laugh. Her beautiful laugh that struck me as innocent was now gone. No laughter was as distinct as hers. My eyes were watery even then. I could do nothing but cry.
"Why? Why must it end like this? It can't......it can't end like this. It just can't." I said as I broke into tears again. Nothing was working properly that day. When we were back in the classroom I tried to hide my tears from the teacher and the fillies around me. I only looked up once that day and it was to look at her desk. Empty, just like my heart. I saw one of her books still there and I just stared at it for a long time. I slowly looked back at the cold floor to see wet marks on the floor from my tears. I just looked at the paper on my desk and tears began to run again. When the bell had rung to signal the end of school that day, I just slowly got up and picked up my stuff. "It can't be, it just can't be. I can't lose her, we both love each other. This isn't right! Dammit I deserve and answer why!!!" I said to myself as I walked out into the front of the school house. I was slowly walking home. Blaze walked with me because he wanted to make sure I was alright or something like that.
"Look, don't beat yourself up over this, it wasn't your fault. You did your best out there kid. Nopony could've ever asked anymore from you." He said as an attempt to cheer me up. Nothing seemed to be working. I wasn't making a turn for the better. It was only getting worse as I drew closer to home. When I reached my doorstep, I looked over at Blaze and just took a deep, depressing breath.
"Thanks for all the help, but I think I am just gonna never get over this. She was truly one perfect filly for me and now she is...gone." I replied to him as he waited for me to go in. He then looked at me with a weird face and was thinking about something. I was about to turn around and go in, but he put his hoof on my shoulder and made me face him.
"Ok I didn't believe you were actually this serious about her. If you are this serious then there is more advice I can give you. How much do you love her?" He asked me quickly as I looked up at him to see what he was getting on about.
"Words cannot describe my love for her. If there was a word strong enough to display my affection towards her, believe me, I would use it." I replied as I wiped some tears out of my eyes. He looked at me in the eyes and smiled.
"Then fight! Fight for the love you desperately care for! Fight to keep that flame alive! Don't let it die! Don't just sit here and watch it happen. You fight for what you love!" He whispered to me. My eyes grew wide and at that instant, my tears stopped. I lifted my head up and looked at the sun. My spirit had lifted. I had a change of heart. My mind suddenly shifted away from sadness.
"You're....you're right! Thank you Blaze! You're a true friend indeed! I'll see you tomorrow!" I said to him as I left. I dropped my saddlebag and ran as fast as I could towards my angel. "I hope to Celestia that you are still there! I can't be late!" I said to myself as I ran across town to reach her. I saw her house with carriages outside and big boxes. "They haven't left yet!" I yelled as I ran toward the house. I ran closer and closer until I saw the door of the house open and I halted just outside the house. I saw a bigger mare come out. It was her sister Rarity. She looked down at me, probably confused on why I was here. I looked past her and saw Sweetie Belle inside. "Rarity, if I could please talk to Sweetie Belle. It won't take long I promise. Please just give me at least a minute." I begged her as she looked at me oddly. She looked back into the house and cleared her throat.
"Sweetie, there is a colt here to see you, but make it quick. We have to leave." She said as Sweetie Belle looked over at her sister, then down at the door where I was sitting. Her eyes grew wide and she ran over past her sister to me. Rarity went back inside and Sweetie and I just hugged for a solid thirty seconds. I didn't want to let her go, but I had to. When we looked at each other, I saw her once beautiful, innocent face. I was mesmerized once again by her. I jumped back into reality and remembered what I was here for.
"Sweetie. I know you are leaving, and you won't see me again, but this doesn't have to be the ending! I don't care how long it takes, I will make it to Canterlot and I will find you once I get there!" I said to her as she looked at me.
"You don't have to do that Mist. I'm not worth it." She replied as she looked down at the ground, as if she was ashamed. I grabber her hoof and looked into her eyes.
"Listen to me my love. I promise I will go after you. I don't care how long it takes, I will be there for you. All I ask of you is to wait. Wait for me and I will be there. We can still be in love. I will write you if I have to, but I will never break this promise you hear me?" I said to her. She just smiled and kissed me. Again, once our lips met, there wasn't a worry in the world. Rarity was calling for her inside and we both hugged one last time. She got into one of the carriages and off they went. I watched as they headed toward Canterlot. I stood up and walked into the middle of the road. "Don't forget Sweetie! Don't you forget! I will be there for you!" I yelled as the carriages grew smaller and smaller. I sat on that road far after they had left. I was smiling and looking at the sun setting on the mountains up ahead. I took a breath of relief. That day no longer felt like I had lost something, rather it felt like I had gained something that could not be lost. Something irreplaceable.
