Finding a Friend Part 2

Big Mac trotted back to Sweet Apple Acres with smile across his face. He was glad that he had an arrangement with Twilight to meet with her. She didn't say exactly where they were going meet up, so, he was going to meet her at her Library. Since he had no idea where that was, he was going to wait until Applejack got home so he can tell him. He also assumed that since it was Applejack's friend, she was going to be suspicious on why he was meeting her.

It was going to be a long time until tomorrow, so he decided to do his daily chores early today, and early at sunrise tomorrow so he won't be late. However, he was interrupted by a small filly with a bow in her mane while he was bucking apples trees fit for his size.

"Hey big brother!" Applebloom called out as she ran over to him, "Why are ya doin' yer choirs so early?"

"Well," Big Mac began, "I'm meeting somepony tomorrow and I want to git' my choirs done early today, and early tomorrow so ah won't be late."

Applebloom was confused. She always saw him at home after she was done crusading for her cutie mark with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. She couldn't imagine that Big Mac going into town to meet somepony.

"Well, who's the pony yer meeting?"

"Just somepony." Big Mac replied to her as he bucked a tree.

"Is it Caramel?"

"Nope."

"What 'bout Mr. Cake?."

"Nope."

"How 'bout Spike?"

"Nope."

"Well, who is it?!" Applebloom exclaimed.

Big Mac sighed, "Ah told you, I'm meeting her tomorrow."

"Oooooh, it's a HER!" She said while elbowing him.

Big Mac sighed again, "Yes, it's a her."

"Is it Fluttershy?" She asked him while walking next to him

"Nope." Big Mac was a little annoyed that she was still asking him about the somepony.

"Rarity?"

Big Mac decided not to answer anymore.

"Rainbow Dash?"

Still no response. She assumed that it wasn't her since he was being quiet.

"Pinkie Pie?"

Big Mac stopped at a tree and was about to buck it.

"Or is it Twilight?"

Big Mac stopped himself just as he was about to connect his legs to the tree, and looked at Applebloom.

She gasped in a surprised tone.

"So your meeting Twilight tomorrow?" she asked him while putting her nose up to his.

He finally answered after a short silence.

"Eyup."

"Your going on ah date with Twilight, your going on a date with Twilight!" She said while jumping around him, and singing.

Big Mac's face burned up. He stopped her with his hoove and managed to get her literally on his arm, and lifted her so he can get face to face. And told her very clearly,

"No ah ain't."

She was again confused when he answered. "Then why are you meeting up with her?"

"We're jus' hanging out."

"Oh, okay." she said while putting her hooves back on the ground. "Well, maybe I can help you out."

Big Mac just looked at her.

"What?" she asked him.

"Do ya remember the last time you helped me out?"

"Oh yeah, forgot."

Applebloom completely forgot that she poisoned him and Cheerilee with the Love Poison. He was a little surprised that she forgot so quickly, since it happened about a week ago.

"Well, ah can't wait to tell Applejack that yer meeting up with Twilight." she said while galloping back to the house.

Big Mac caught up to her and stopped her dead in her tracks.

"No yer not. Cause I'm gonna tell her."

"Oh, well okay." Applebloom continued her walk to the house, still being happy for Big Mac.

"How am ah gonna tell Applejack?" he asked himself. "She's probably gonna make a big deal out of it, and give rules on what ta do, and what not ta do." He chuckled at his little joke, and went back to his chores.

It was sometime in the afternoon, and Applejack came back with a bucket full of bits, and with large empty buckets in the back of the cart that Big Mac pulled earlier. She pulled the cart into the barn with the rest of their equipment, and put the large buckets into their shed. She trotted into the house with their bucket cash register, and dumped the bits in a large glass jar, with a stick of tape on it that said, "NEW BARN ROOF". They've been saving up their money to buy a new roof, since the one that they have now, is starting to fall apart. And they want to save up as much as they can before winter comes.

"Howdy ya'll." She said to her family members, as she walked into the kitchen. "We got ah mighty fine worth of money for our roof."

Granny Smith turned her head as she was cooking dinner.

"Well, that's always good. Ah remember back in my day I..." she fell asleep. The Apple Family assumed that Granny Smith was going to land her head on the mashed potatoes, but she just stood their, sleeping standing up. She was starting to snore louder than a cattle herd full of cows. As Granny Smith was taking a nap, Big Mac was nervous on telling Applejack, that he was going into town to meet Twilight. And, to ask where she lived. Sounds a little stalker like to him. But, he just had to straight out tell her.

"Uh, AJ?"

"Yeah big brother?" she turned her head to make eye contact with him, but his eyes were going from left to right.

"Uuuh...um...well." he managed to stutter out.

"Big Mac's going on ah date with Twilight!" Applebloom exclaimed. She also managed to wake up Granny Smith.

Big Mac's face was in shock. He couldn't believe that Applebloom told her. Not to mention that she said it was a date.

"Yeah, Big Mac's going on date with Twilight tomorrow and..." She was cut off with a hoof covering up her mouth.

"Applebloom!" he exclaimed.

"What? Your were stuttering, and it seemed you were having trouble." she told him.

"Well, that's because I'm nervous, okay?"

"So yer gonna to meet up with Twilight tomorrow?" Applejack interrupted their conversation.

Big Mac looked back at Applejack, and looked down at the floor boards.

"I said, are you going to meet Twilight in town?" she said in a very serious tone.

Big Mac seemed he was going to have his face melted off with the hotness of his face. But, since the family were honest ponies, he should just tell her.

"Eyup. I'm going into town to HANG OUT with Twilight." he said while turning his head to Applebloom for a brief moment. "The thing is, ah haven't gotten a clue on where she lives."

Her serious/angry face went immediately to happy and surprised. "Oh mah goodness, Granny Smith. Big Mac is going to hang out with one of mah friends!" Applejack said to Granny Smith.

"Oh, well isn't that swell. I remember when I got my first a best friend. Her name was...uh...uh... um, her name was..." Granny Smith put her hoof up to her chin. Shortly, after she chuckled. "Well, it seems I forgotten my best friends name." Everyone started to laugh. That's what happens in somepony's life, they start to forget the past.

Applejack stopped laughing, and turned back to Big Mac, "Well don't you worry big brother, I'll be happy tah help you out."

Big Mac gave her one of his warm smiles, "Thanks AJ."

"Of course. Anything to help out mah big bro. Alright, here's where ya need tah go..."
