A long day, a fruitless search, leaving the mare numb. Nothing was more aggravating than a day wasted, a day lost. Love lost. It had been three seasons since Twilight had been dumped by Time Turner, and all of her friends kept telling her it was time to get back up and try again.
But it was hard. Twilight had to retreat to the confines of the world wide web to manage this feat, and that was just barely. She never looked seriously, only just observed. She stayed out of chats, and never turned on her camera. She was a digital ghost almost, just a byte of data wasted.
Often, the mare found herself here, on Match.com. She didn't know why. She would just flip through the pages of stallions for hours, thinking of how silly this whole pursuit was. There was no way she would ever find a love like this.
Often, Twilight would poke around the mare for mare pages, telling herself it was just for a chuckle. But no pony checks those pages daily for just a chuckle. But today say something new happen for Twilight.
As she flipped through mare after mare, she came across a gem. Literally. GemLuv26, or as she clearly was, Rarity. Twilight almost snorted with laughter, stopping herself just short, out of respect for her friend.
"Rarity's a lesbian?" Twilight muttered as she clicked on the profile. She just had to see what Rarity had written. She had to see it all. She would, too.
I made this profile the day my friend did, the day we talked her into trying again. I made the move publicly as a show of support, being a good friend. But my motives were impure.
To be honest, I love her, but she's just not that kind of mare. I am smitten by the mare with a heart of gold and a champion intellect. Before her, I was convinced I would move out of town not long ago, till she came into my life. Now, I'll stay here, just too see her some more, even if it's just as friends. I don't want your comfort, or your pity. I know my place, and I have long ago accepted that. I am just here on this site to fulfill my promise to a friend, and have some place to just get this off my chest.
Interests: Her alone.
Updates: Please, stop messaging me looking for casual sex! If I have to tell one more pony that, I will track you down and hurt you. Also, stop messaging me to tell me how wrong my life choices are! I don't recall asking you now!
Twilight felt numb again. This was something else. Rarity loved... loved her. With a trembling hoof, Twilight clicked on the send message link, and began her own.
Rarity, I think you and I should talk about a few things. Over diner, and just us please? I would really like that. I don't even know if you still check this page, but if you do, I wanted to say that what you said was beautiful. I... Just please reply. Twilight.
With a blank mind, Twilight pressed send. She knew not what guided her hooves, but she still just had to do this. Minutes passed as Twilight just sat there, moving only to breath and blink. Had she made the right call? What if-
Beep Beep Beep!
A new message called out for Twilight's attention. She was numb before. Now she moved at speeds that blurred all of time. She just had to see...
From GemLuv26
You sure know how too keep a lady waiting, Twilight.
Twilight never felt more alive.
