Dinky's First Year
Chapter 1: The First Day
Derpy was in the kitchen making lunch for Dinky because it was her first day of school. She made Dinky a flower sandwhich and a muffin. She put it all in a brown bag and left the kitchen. She walked up the stairs into Dinky's room and saw Dinky sleeping. She sat herself right next to Dinky on the bed. She gazed at Dinky and smiled. She gently pushed Dinky's shoulder until she heard Dinky moan. Dinky opened her eyes and looked up at her mother while laying her head down. Derpy kissed her on the forehead and left the room to let her wake up. Dinky was in the kitchen making a bowl of oats for her and Dinky. Derpy heard Dinky walking down the stairs. Dinky entered the kitchen and Derpy handed her a bowl of oats.
"How did you sleep?" Derpy asked.
"Good." Dinky yawned.
"Good to hear. Do you wanna eat in the living?" Derpy asked.
"Sure." Dinky replied.
Dinky walked into the living and Derpy grabbed her bowl of oats and walked into the living to sit on the couch with Dinky. She looked at Dinky and saw the expression on her face that she was worried.
"Is something wrong my little muffin?" Derpy asked.
"I'm just nervous." Dinky said.
"What are you nervous about?" Derpy asked.
"Well it's just that. What if I don't make any friends on the first day?" Dinky said.
"Don't what if life. Just be yourself and i'm positive that someone will like you for being you." Derpy said.
Once they were done with their breakfast Derpy grabbed the bowls and put'em in the sink to wash later. Derpy grabbed Dinky's backup and filled it up with school supplies. Derpy handed it to Dinky and Dinky put it on her back. They walked outside of the house and Derpy put Dinky on her back and flew her to school. They arrived to the school and they stood outside of the school. The bell rung and all the fillies started heading inside.
"Have a good day at school and i'll pick you up once you get out okay." Derpy said.
"I will mommy." Dinky said.
"Goodbye my muffin." Derpy said.
"Bye mommy!" Derpy yelled while heading inside.
Once Dinky was inside the house Derpy flew all the way to work at the post office. The school had all the students meet in the cafeteria so they know the way to their new classroom. Dinky looked around and saw all the other fillies talking to each other. One of the students walked up towards Dinky and introduced herself to her.
"Hi my name is Bells. What's your's?" Bells asked.
"Hi Bells my name's Dinky said.
"Nice to make your acquaintence." Bells said.
"So what's going on?" Dinky asked.
"Beats me. This is my first day of school here." Bells said.
A speaker went off and all the fillies payed their attention to where the noise was coming from.
"Good morning every pony. My name is Ms. Cherilee and I will be assigning you all to your teachers. Now you will all line up in front of this desk here and I will ask your name and I will give you a map that guides you to where your teacher will be." Ms. Cherilee said.
All the fillies were lining up to the desk. Dinky got in line with her new friend Bells and they waited for their turn. When Dinky got up to the desk, Dinky received her paper. Ms. Cherilee was her teacher. She waited to see who Bells got and Bells got the exact same teacher as Dinky.
"Wow would you look at that. We both got the same classes together." Bells said.
"Wow what a nice surprise." Dinky said.
They both found their way to the classroom and when they got their they saw all the other fillies all lined up on the wall. So they both went to the wall with the others. Then, the teacher started to speak.
"Okay everypony. Now all of you will have to walk around and find a desk with your name on it." Ms. Cherilee said.
All the fillies scattered across the classroom to find their desk with their name on it. Dinky found her name on it and as a big coincidence Bells was sitting right next to her. 12:00. It was noon and it was time for the fillies to have lunch. Dinky sat with Bells in the courtyard while a lot of the other fillies played. Dinky pulled out her flower sandwich and muffin. Bells pulled out just a flower sandwich.
"You got a muffin with your lunch? Does your mom work at the bakery?" Bells asked.
"No she works at the post office." Dinky replied.
"So then what's with the muffin?" Bells asked.
"Me and my mom love muffins and once a week we both make a batch of muffins together. She made me this one muffin today because it was my first day of school." Dinky replied.
"What's your mom like?" Bells asked.
"She's funny, kind, sharing, and the best mother any filly could ask for." Dinky replied. "What about yours?" She asked.
"My mom works at an antique shop where she sells ornaments, bells, gift shop toys, and other neat little stuff like that." Bells replied.
"So what's her cutiemark supposed to be? An antique shop?" Derpy asked.
"Yep. What's your mom's cutiemark? I bet it's a mailbox isn't it?" Bells asked.
"No. It's a cutiemark of bubbles." Dinky replied.
"So what does it stand for?" Bells asked.
"It stands for her personality." Dinky replied.
"That's neat." Bells said.
They both started to eat their food until two fillies called "Silver Spoon" and "Diamond Tiara."
"What's this a muffin?" Silver Spoon picked up.
"Um yes. Would you like some?" Dinky asked.
"Oh no muffins are nasty." Silver replied.
"Have you even tried one?" Dinky asked.
"Not when that one idiot makes them. Oh what was her name, um Derpy Hooves." Silver said.
"Now why would you say that?" Bells asked.
"Well she's a big screw up and can't always pay attention to what she's doing. Especially with those eyes of hers." Silver replied.
Dinky started to feel rage forming inside of her.
"Oh yeah. Well my parents say never judge a book by it's cover." Bells said.
"Oh really you would get a book of an idiot with crossed eyes screwing everything up?" Silver snapped.
"Yes. As a matter of fact I would. In fact the only thing that changes you from every other pony is that fact because your parents are the richest people in Ponyville and everypony that follows you and your parents around just want your money instead of who you really are." Bells said.
"Why I never." Silver said.
"What learned a lesson from the middle-class." Bells said. There were a bunch of oo's going around the courtyard.
"Well we are out of here, right Diamond Tiara?" Silver asked in disgust.
"Right." Diamond replied
The crowd went away discussing about the humiliation that just happened to Silver Spoon. Dinky looked at Bells. Bells gave her a look.
"Is something wrong?" Dinky asked.
"No. I just wanted to let you know I know who your mother is." Bells replied.
Dinky started to feel depressed. "You do? How?" Dinky asked.
"When you told me that she had bubbles for a cutiemark and that her cutiemark stand for her personality." Bells serious look turned into a smile. "Gotcha." She started to laugh.
"What?" Dinky said in confusion. But her friend kept on laughing and once her friend was satisfied she began to speak again.
"It's Derpy. I just wanted to see your reaction if I just suddenly turned my back on you. But if you did take me seriously. I'm sorry and I hope we can still hang out." Bells said.
"It's okay on one condition." Dinky said.
"What would that be?" Bells asked.
Dinky smiled and shoved the muffin in her friends mouth. Bells took a bite and swallowed it. Bells gave her a look and then smiled.
"Don't do that again." Dinky replied.
"Okay." Bells looked at the bitten muffin. "Are you going to finish that?" Bells asked.
Dinky looked at the muffin and gave it to her friend. Bells took a bite out of it.
"Your mom really knows how to make a muffin." Bells said.
"She's the best. Pinkiepie is trying to compete with her in a friendly competition. But mommy always wins." Dinky said.
"That's why Pinkiepie should stick with cupcakes." Bells said.
"Exactly." Dinky said.
The school bell rung and the two fillies finished up lunch and head back to class.
2:50. The school bell rung and Dinky went outside with Bells and talked about how Bells humiliated Silver Spoon. Dinky stopped and looked around and saw her mother at the sidewalk waiting for her.
"Hey I had fun. I'll see you tomorrow." Dinky said.
"Sure thing. See you later Dinky." Bells said.
Dinky looked at her mother and her mother gazed at her child seeing that she has a new friend. Dinky ran up towards her mother and gave her a hug.
"How was your first day of school?" Derpy asked.
"It was really good." Dinky replied.
