//------------------------------// // Chapter 4: Almost Over // Story: Dinky's first year // by marineproductions100 //------------------------------// Chapter 4: Almost Over Summer is almost here to the students. Bells and Dinky started sleepovers three months after their fight. They became closer and closer friends. They eventually started calling each other best friends. Derpy started to know more about Bells' parents and also Space got fired from his job. So Derpy helped him out by getting him a job at the post office. Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara didn't bother Dinky and Silver much after the fight. Everything was going good. Last day of school, morning, 7:30. Derpy was getting Dinky's lunch. A flower sandwich and two muffins like everyday. Dinky didn't get her backpack ready because the school said that none of the students need it for the last day of school. Derpy gave Dinky her lunch and they headed outside. Like everyday Derpy puts Dinky on her back and flies her to school. Once they got to school Derpy gives Dinky a goodbye kiss on the forehead and Dinky heads to class. Dinky entered the classroom and saw a bunch of soda and cupcakes in the classroom. All the students were sitting down in their desks. Bells was in her desk waiting for Dinky to come sit right next to her. Dinky sat down next to Bells. "Hey Dinky, you excited for summer?" Bells asked. "I am excited for summer. I'm glad to finally get out of school." Dinky replied. "Yeah same here. Hey maybe we can hang out more during summer." Bells said. "That sounds like a great idea." Dinky acknowledged. Ms. Cherilee walked in the classroom. "Good morning class." Ms. Cherilee said. "Good morning Ms. Cherilee." All the students acknowledged. "Now I know this is the last day of school. So I decided to bring my friend Pinkiepie." Ms. Cherilee said. Pinkiepie walked in the room with cupcakes. "Hi everypony I hope you'll enjoy the cupcakes because I certainly do. It's not a party when there are no cupcakes." Pinkiepie said. "Now we can't have any of these cupcakes until lunch. So for now we'll play some games. I brought board games today for everypony." Ms. Cherilee said. "Make sure to thank Pinkiepie for the cupcakes." Ms. Cherilee said. "Thank you Pinkiepie." All the students said. "Your welcome." Pinkiepie said and then she left. Ms. Cherilee put out a bunch of board games on her desk. "Now everypony can come up with a friend and pick a board game together." Ms. Cherilee said. Dinky and Bells walked up to her desk and chose checkers. They scoot their desks close to each other and started playing the game. 12:00, lunch time. Instead of going out to the courtyard like all the students in the class would do. They all stayed in the classroom and ate cupcakes and their lunches. Dinky only grabbed two cupcakes. One for her and one for Bells. They both enjoyed the cupcakes and the muffins that Derpy makes for them. Then, once they were done eating they went straight back to their game of checkers. They played the game of checkers for so long that they lost track of time. "Okay everypony before we leave we gotta clean up this room. So the janitor doesn't have to do so much work. Make sure to return the board game and all the pieces that go with the game back to the desk." Ms. Cherilee said. All the fillies cleaned up the room and put away all the board games. Dinky was actually happy on the last day of school she didn't get bothered by Silver Spoon or Diamond Tiara and she got to play with her friend Bells all day. 2:45. All the fillies were in their desks talking to each other. "How are we supposed to keep contact of each other while we're gone?" Bells asked. "Don't be silly. My mom works at the post office with your dad. I'm pretty sure I can write a letter that can go to you and my mom will give it to your dad and your dad will give it to you." Dinky said. "Oh right. I almost forgot about that." Bells said. They looked up at the clock it said 2:49. "One more minute and we'll out of school for two months." Dinky said. "I know right. No Silver or Diamond walking around going." Bells made a mock face of Spoon and her voice. "I'm Silver Spoon and I despise anything that doesn't look clean and dazzle." Bells mocked. Dinky giggled and then tried to mock Diamond. "I'm Diamond Tiara and I follow Silver Spoon around all day saying nothing and always making a frown face whenever Silver does because I got nothing better to do." Dinky said. They both laughed at each others mocks. Then, the bell rung and all the fillies ran outside except for Dinky and Bells they walked outside. Once they were outside the school they walked together until they've reached the entrance of Ponyville and that's where they had to take two different roads. "I'll see you later?" Bells said. "Yeah I guess so." Dinky said. "Try to see with your mom to see if it's okay for us to spend the night at your house and i'll ask mine." Bells said. "Okay." Dinky said. They gave each other a friendly hug and walked down their roads to their own homes. Dinky got to her house and unlocked the door with the key under the mat. She walked inside and it was all dark. Dinky put the key back and locked the door and flipped her lightswitch. Once she turned on the light a muffin hit her in the face. It was Derpy she had a sign on the kitchen door that said "happy summer". "Hi muffin, did you have fun on the last day of school?" Derpy asked. "Yes I did. Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara didn't bother me or Bells today and me and Bells got to play checkers all day. Also Pinkiepie brought in cupcakes for the class." Dinky replied. "Sounds like fun but do you know what's even more fun?" Derpy said. "What?" Dinky asked. "Muffin fight!" Derpy yelled and started throwing muffins at Dinky. Dinky grabbed some of the muffins and threw it back at Derpy. They played Muffin fight for about thirty minutes and then they started to clean up. "Hey mom can I ask you something?" Dinky asked. "Sure muffin." Derpy replied. "Can Bells come over and have a sleepover today?" Dinky asked. "Sure if it's okay with her parents." Derpy replied. Then there was a knock on the door. Derpy answered and Space was at the door with Bells. "Hey Derpy, Bells was asking me if it was okay for her to spend the night here with Dinky and I was checking in with you if it was okay." Space said. "It's perfectly fine. Don't worry i'll take good care of her." Derpy said. "Thank you Derpy." Space said. "No problem." Derpy said. Space left and Bells came inside. Dinky greeted Bells with a hello hug. "What do you want to do?" Dinky said. "Muffin fight." Bells said. Derpy shoved a muffin in both of their mouths. They both laughed and Derpy started to laugh too. "I'll let you two play. I'll be in the kitchen making us some dinner." Derpy said. "Okay mommy." Dinky said. Dinky and Bells sat down on the couch and started to talk. Derpy peeked her head out of the kitchen door and smiled. THE END. This story was inspired by true events. Written by: Cameron.
