A Broken Bloom ch 4

"Bye sugarcube! Have a nice day!" AJ called out to her younger sister. She had gotten Apple Bloom up the steps to the schoolhouse and now had to get back to the farm to do her chores.

And yes, today was Apple Bloom's first day back at school since the accident. Ms. Cheerilee was made aware of the current situation and was glad to have the young filly be able to return to class. Apple Bloom had to come to school early though to discuss what she missed and needed to make up.

At school Apple Bloom received great amounts of sympathy. Too much sympathy. She didn't wish to become a pity party!

"No really guys, I'm OK. You don't have to worry about me." she told her fellow classmates who were surrounding her; she didn't like all the pitiful attention she was getting.

Slowly but surely each of her classmates went back to their desks. The rest of the day was actually rather normal for the little yellow filly...

Including the day to day insults from Diamond Tiara.

"Hey blank-flank, guess you're a cripple now too?" Diamond teased before laughing menacfully.

Silver Spoon did not join her in the teasing now though. No, quite the opposite, she stood up for Apple Bloom.

"Stop it, Diamond Tiara! Teasing somepony for being a blank-flank is one thing, teasing somepony for a disability is another!" Silver scolded her friend.

Now that surprised a lot of ponies.

Scootaloo usually would be the one to stick up for her friends but she couldn't bring herself to. Not after the accident. The accident she blamed herself for.





Durring recess Apple Bloom tried to talk to Scootaloo but she kept on trying to run away from her.

"Scoot, why do you keep running away from me?" Apple Bloom asked on the verge of crying when she finally caught up to the speedy pegasus.

She was convinced Scoot didn't want to be her friend anymore. That wasn't the case at all.

"I'm...I'm sorry! If I didn't suggest B.A.S.E. jumping none of this would have ever happened!" Scootaloo cried.

"Scoot, is that you were avoiding me?" Apple Bloom asked her orange friend whom only responded with a nod.

"Scoot, its not your fault what happened! It wasn't your fault my parachute didn't open! Get that thought out of your silly filly head right now and give me a hug!" Apple Bloom told her friend with a giggle.

And Scootaloo did exactly that.




Sorry I haven't gotten to update in months. I've been having finals, then entrance exams, then WM so I've had my hooves full!
