I was still thinking about the Twilight when the next class period started. I walked into the class hesitantly, as I was very early, and I was not entirely sure if the teacher would let me in. You could imagine my surprise when I already saw someone in the classroom, studying the textbook. It was Twilight Sparkle.
“Oh, hello, Kevin. You are very early today, but that’s good, you can introduce our new student, Twilight, to what we’re learning right now,” said the teacher. I nodded and smiled, then walked over and sat next to Twilight.
“Hello, Kevin! It’s nice to know we’re in the same science class together, I must say, this book is very interesting!” she said with a warm smile.
“You mean the textbook? Well we’re learning quantum mechanics now, so if you want to go to it in the textbook…” I said to her, not knowing what else to say. She nodded and began to flip through her textbook.
We sat in awkward silence for a few moments, not knowing what to say.
“So, Kevin, do you like music?” asked Twilight abruptly.
“Oh, um, music? Yeah I like music! Though what kind of music are we talking about here?” I said a little bit awkwardly.
“Any kind, though I do prefer classical music, it’s just so beautiful and emotional,” said Twilight dreamily.
“I’ll let you know, Twilight, that I can play the piano pretty well,” said I, with an air of pride.
“Really?! Oh how long have you been playing?” asked Twilight, clearly interested.
“About nine years,” I quickly replied.
“That’s wonderful! I would love to hear you play sometime. Who’s your favorite composer?” asked Twilight.
“Well, I do like Chopin the most, though there are so many other great composers out there, such as Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Schubert, and a few others,” I said to her.
“I love Chopin! His music is so beautiful and complex, I just absolutely love listening to it!” she said happily.
I grinned in response. Then I heard a cluster of voices coming from the hallway.
“Dagnabbit, Pinkie, you don’t just go around starting random parties in the hall, do you know how weird the people in this school think it is. Shewt, now everyone who saw us probably think we’re some kinda weirdos,” said a familiar western voice.
“I mean, really, Pinkie, if you’re going to start a party, you should at least do a royal one, put some class, some elegance, into it,” said another familiar voice.
Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie walked into the room. Pinkie Pie was wearing a sheepish grin as Rarity and AJ both scowled at her.
“But they all looked ssssooooooo down! When I saw that, I thought they needed a party!” said Pinkie, defending herself.
“Maybe so, but you don’t go all willy-nilly throwing parties in the halls, you could’ve gotten us kicked out, and on the first day, too!” retorted AJ.
Rarity just sighed and looked at the classroom and saw us. “Oh why hello, my dear Twilight, can you puh-lease tell Pinkie Pie over here how unprofessional she is being, we are in desperate need for a voice of reason, not that I’m not good at being a voice of reason, of course,” said Rarity to Twilight. She looked at me and said, “Oh Kevin! I’m terribly sorry, I didn’t see you there, and it is very nice to know that we are in the same class together.”
“Likewise,” I said quickly.
Pinkie, AJ, and Rarity took their seats next to us, with Pinkie Pie looking dejected.
“I still don’t know what I did wrong,” she muttered angrily.
AJ rolled her eyes and gave me a look that quite plainly said, don’t mind her.
I nodded and smiled at her. I watched as the class began filling up, one by one.
“Okay, class, it’s time to begin,” said the teacher when the bell rang.
As the class progressed, I noticed that Twilight raised her hand (hoof?) for every single question the teacher asked, even the ones that I didn’t even know. The same could not have been said for her friends, however, as AJ looked like she was trying to understand the lesson, but couldn’t grasp it. Pinkie Pie was fidgeting in her chair, obviously wanting to spring up and dance around, which she knew she could not do. Rarity just simply looked bored.
“Well, Twilight, it seems you might have a chance to overthrow Kevin as the best student in this class,” said the teacher to Twilight. “What do you think, Kevin?” he asked me.
“She probably has a good chance,” I admitted, chuckling.
“I’m sorry, Kevin. I didn’t mean to show off during class, I just knew the answers and I raised my hand instinctively. Can you please forgive me?” she said to me after class.
“I forgive you, Twilight, you’re really smart, I must admit,” I said to her with a small chuckle.
Twilight looked relieved, “Oh that’s wonderful, Kevin. I thought that I had offended you or something, it’s good that I didn’t.”
“You didn’t offend me, Twilight, in fact, I’m really glad we have this class together,” I said to her with a friendly smile.
“Same here!” said Twilight.
“Alright, I’ll see you later, Twilight, I need to go to PE, catch you later,” I said to Twilight.
“See you, Kevin!” said Twilight.
I walked down the hallway to my PE class; I was looking forward to it as Oliver was taking the class with me.
“Well it seems Twi has takin’ a right liking to you, Kevin,” said AJ from behind me.
“Oh hello, Applejack, are you taking PE too?” I asked her, ignoring the remark about Twilight.
“Yup, it seemed like the only class that seemed like you needed physical work, not that I don’t like learnin’.” said AJ.
“Well you can join Oliver and I; he’s taking PE, too,” I said to AJ.
“Really? Well that’s just dandy, I know Dash is taking the class, too, so we’re goin’ to have a buckin’ good time!” said AJ happily.
I smiled as we walked into the gymnasium. I scanned my eyes across the large room, finally seeing Oliver and Rainbow Dash talking in a corner of the room.
“Look, there they are,” I told AJ.
AJ and I then jogged towards them, and as soon they saw us, I saw their eyes light up excitedly.
“Hey, Oliver, how’s it going?” I asked him.
