Chapter 4
Sweetie's Disaster
____________________
Dear diary,
Its Applebloom again.
I got an email from Scythe yesterday. I am so excited, he had asked me to hang out with him. I am still wondering when our tutoring sessions will start.
He is so cute, I hope he likes me in the same way as I like him. I haven't had a very special somepony yet but, I really wouldn't mind if he would-

Applejack's reading session was cut off by a slamming door. She hid the diary back under the white mattress and took up the broom that was leaning against it.
Applejack began picking up hats and other material clothing.
Applebloom walked in and glared at Applejack. Applejack, giving a glare of her own, that spoke of tension and anger.
Applejack spoke up first, softening her gaze into a warm smile mixed with a playful grin. "Why do ya even have all these here clothes, were always prancin around in the nude and what not?" Applejack asked playfully.
Applebloom just stared at here out of anger. Applejack fidgeted for what seemed like minutes, under the younger mare's gaze.
"Ah was just tryin ta lighten the mood," Applejack said begrudgingly.
"I don't care, just get out of my room and next time it needs clean let me do it. You stay out of this fucking room," Applebloom spat venomously.
The older mare looked to her sister, a horrified expression gracing her features. In a few seconds to look changed to an angry glare.
"Now listen here little filly, ah reckon if ya don't want your jaw smacked, y'all aught not let me catch ya sayin that word again!" Applejack scolded through gritted teeth.
"Fuckfuckfuckityfuckfuc-" Applebloom was cut off by a strong yellow hoof flogging her left cheek. The swift hoof nearly knocked the young mare on her side.
Applebloom just stared at the place her head was turned in shock. Her big sister had never hit her. Applejack had always been a mare to talk through her problems, she would've never hit Applebloom when she was younger. But then again, Applebloom would've never cussed when she younger.
"Applebloom, ah am so sor-umph"
Before Applejack could finish her sentence, Applebloom delivered a strong hoof straight at Applejack's chest. The blow sent AJ staggering back until she fell unconscious.
A powerful enough hit to the chest could knock the wind and lights out of anypony, even Big Mac wouldn't be standing if one of those landed on his chest.
Well, Applebloom did not have a clue that was gonna happen. She was however worried of what her older sister might do to her if she was still around the house when she woke up. No doubt she would still be angry.
Applebloom ran down the stairs and past her big brother. "I'm going to stay at Scootaloo's for a few nights," Applebloom said, walking past the huge stallion.
Apple ballon walked out the door and a few seconds later she heard her older sister's enraged yell.
"Where is she?!"
Upon hearing that, Applebloom broke into a gallop.

Applebloom stood In front of the little cottage. She heard arguing from inside and was reluctant tho knock on the door. She hesitantly reached a hoof up to the plain wood door.
Before she could reach it though a young orange mare came walking out.
"Well We love you, Scoots," a voice called from inside.
Scootaloo rolled her eyes. She noticed the golden furred filly standing in the doorway and she went pale.
"Oh um how much of that did you hear?" The little orange filly asked embarrassed.
Applebloom snickered, "enough," she said teasingly. "I was actually hoping I could stay here for the night?" She pressed hopefully.
"Sorry Applebloom, I was actually heading to Sweeties house to ask I could stay," the orange filly said matter-of-factly.
"Oh... Wait, we could have a slumber party!!" Applebloom yelled, nearly squealing with excitement.
"Applebloom, that's a great idea," the violet mane filly agreed happily. "Celestia, we haven't had a sleep over since we were fillies."
"Ya know campin is like an out door slumber party, right?"
"Um, no it's not, Applebloom. It's way different."
"No it's not. It's the same thing different place," the red maned filly corrected.
"Is not."
"Is too."
~~~~
Applebloom laughed.
"It's not funny, it was humiliating. I thought my dad was gonna kill him," Scootaloo said in a serious voice, but chuckling while doing so.
"So your dad caught you suc-" Applebloom's mocking was cut off by an orange hoof being clamped over her mouth.
"Shhhh, I don't want everypony in Ponyville to know."
Applebloom gave an agreeing nod and Scootaloo to her hoof off. "Please don't be like Diamond and tell anypony," Scootaloo pleaded.
"Scootaloo, ya know you can tell me anything. We're friends," Applebloom said, trying to comfort her friend.
"I know. I'm just a little paranoid because of what diamond did."
"She ain't nothin but a lyin bitch. You know Sweetie would never do that."
"I know," Scootaloo looked to the ground then back at the filly.
The golden filly gave an offering smile. Scootaloo gladly returned the gesture, but the smile quickly turned to a mischievous smirk.
She pointed a hoof behind Applebloom. "Hey Applebloom, look who it is," Scootaloo said loudly.
"Who is i-" Applebloom was cut off by a very high pitched squeak upon seeing a certain red colt.
"Hey Scythe!!" Scootaloo yelled.
Applebloom froze solid. 'no he has a friend, I haven't even had a shower, what if he thinks I'm a dirty filly, I can't talk to him I have to hide,' Applebloom thought.
"Oh hey Applebloom. Hey, um? Well I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you yet."
"Oh I'm Scootaloo. Me and Applebloom are like best friends... She tells me everything," Scootaloo hauntingly.
Applebloom's face went as pale as a ghost, while at the same time wearing a blush.
"So this is Applebloom, huh?" Scythe's companion, who had remained quiet the whole time spoke up hauntingly.
Upon hearing his friend state the name, scythes face transformed the usual red color to one not unlike Applebloom's.
Applebloom looked to the ground to hide her blush.
"Applebloom's been talking nonstop about you, Scythe," Scootaloo continued.
"Scootaloo, I have not!" Applebloom shouted, causing a giggle from the orange filly. Applebloom looked to Scythe. "Not that I wouldn't mind talkin about you. I mean, I'm sure you're really fun to talk about, hehe. Applebloom said very rapidly.
"Oh don't worry Applebloom, scythe has been talking about you to," Featherweight said hauntingly.
Scythe and Applebloom. Both blush and looked away. Upon seeing their friends' embarrassment Scootaloo and Featherweight fell over in a fit of laughter.
After about a minute of this Applebloom and Scythe seemed to have enough.
"least I ain't chickens," Applebloom rebutted in a taunting tone.
Scootaloo gasped and a similar sound came from Featherweight.

Sweetie belle heard a rasping at the door and she got up from her bed. Answering, not to her surprised was her sister.
"Sweetie dear, your friends are here to see you," Rarity's voice sang.
"Ok thanks Rarity," The pink and purple maned unicorn answered.
In another minute Scootaloo and Applebloom came into the room. The where yelling at each other.
"Do you two seriously have to fight all the time?" Sweetie asked.
"Scootaloo started it, guess what she did to m-"
Applebloom was cut off by Sweeties hoof plunged into her lips. The white hoof stayed there until the mumbling under it subsided.
"Now I don't wan't to hear it. My goodness guys how old are you?!" Sweetie Belle asked them.
They both looked down to their hooves and said their apologies in unison.
~later that night~
"Sweetie why would he even do that?!" Scootaloo and Applebloom yelled to the white unicorn.
Sweetie had just told them why she had been so upset lately. And now she lay on the bed with her friend crying her eyes out.
"I-I Don't know," Sweetie cried out.
Her friend wrapped her I'm a hug and comforted her.
"Look Sweetie if he is too stupid to not know you're better than that slut, then you don't need him anyway."
"Yeah," Applebloom Agreed with her orange friend.
"I just can't believe someone had sex with Diamond. That bitch is hit," Scootaloo said, scrunching up her nose in disgust.
"Scootaloo, what thing ta say?!" Applebloom yelled.
"What it's true," Scootaloo defended.
~meanwhile~
" But Mac, she hit me?!"
"AJ, y'all hit her first, I'ma guessin thats plenty a reason ta strike back."
"I guess, but its been so hard. She been so disrespectful toward meh."
"Ya ain't momma so quit pretending ya are. I ain't got the slightest clue on how ta be a big sister but Im bettin she needs a sister not a mom."
Applejack and the big red stallion sat at the table in silence for a few seconds.
Finally Applejack spoke, "Big Macintosh your a genius!!"
"Eeyup," the red stallion said simply.
The orange mare put a hoof to her chin in thought. "Ok so I'll take her out for a bite ta eat or something to spend some time with her..."
