“What did you ask me?” she put on a little smile and blushed. Silver Spoon then put a hoof under Dim’s chin and directed his head towards her so they were looking in each other's eyes. “What do I want to feel?”

Dim was about to question what Silver Spoon was trying to do. He opened his mouth but no words came out, his eyes were suddenly dazed in ecstasy for a few moments. There were colors everywhere for three seconds then everything slowly went black, as if he had gotten up too quickly. Dim was really confused. This headache is terrible.

He shook his head quickly to get his vision back together and looked at the floor. “Sorry, headache was getting uh, um, weird. What did you… what did you…” he looked back at Silver Spoon who was still looking at him with a smile. He looked right into her eyes. “Whoa…” Dim was struck with a flurry of new emotions when he stared at the gray filly.  

“Something wrong?” Silver asked, keeping the smile on.

“I-I don’t know.” Dim replied standing up but then instantly staggering back and bumping into a dresser. 

“I think you should sit down before you hurt yourself, Dim.” Silver Spoon began to walk towards him slowly.

This isn’t right at all. Why am I feeling like this? I don’t like this pony one bit, especially not like this! Sweetie Belle surpasses her in everyway. But she’s so beautiful… and amazing…

“Yeah, good idea. Where’s a chair?” Dim looked around but there were no chairs present in the room. Odd for such a rich pony to have no chairs. 

“Chairs are stupid. Your options are the floor, which you seem to not be good with. Or the bed, which you should feel honored to be in the presence of I might add.” Silver Spoon said adjusting her glasses and still not breaking that same smile. 

Why does she keep smiling at me? It’s getting a little creepy. But cute at the same time. Agh! No! She’s not cute! She’s a horrible pony who since I got here has only been trying to hurt me, my filly friend, and her friends. She just told me to be honored to be near her bed. It’s literally impossible to like somepony like that.

‘Quit lying to yourself.’  Dim Shadow’s inner subconscious rang. 

“Yeah,” Dim turned around and began to walk towards the Silver Spoon’s bed. “I’m soooo honored to look at your bed.” Dim said sarcastically rolling his sapphire blue eyes. 

        Dim hopped on to the bed and sat down letting his back hooves, from the knees down, hang off the bed; then slowly lowered his back down onto the soft silky sheets. They felt like magic on Dim’s body. They had to be professionally made and who ever made them definitely put time and effort into it. A smile of comfort came upon Dim’s face. However that moment of peace was broken when suddenly Silver Spoon’s face flashed above Dim’s from the other side of the bed.

“So where were we? What do I want to feel, you asked?” she continued to persist at that question.

“Y-Yeah, you said what you do doesn’t make you feel happy but only makes you feel something. So again, Silver Spoon, what do you want to feel?” Dim flipped over and looked up into Silver Spoon’s eyes all while trying to resist any and all new feelings as hard as he could.

“H-h-h-honestly?” Silver Spoon nervously asked.

“Yes, I’m just trying to help you. I won’t judge.” Dim said reassuringly.

“Dim Shadow, I want to feel y-” 

 -CRASH- Deafening roars of thunder could be heard as streaks of lightning flashed from out the window, blinding both of them. Startled, both ponies grabbed each other on impulse and held each other close. 

After a few seconds, the impact had passed, leaving the two ponies in eachothers arms.

Dim put on an awkward smile, “Eh, heh heh, sorry about that.” He tried to break away from the naturally forced hug but Silver wouldn’t let go. “Umm…”

She whimpered, “I hate thunder and lightning.” she hugged tighter.

“It’s okay… it can’t hurt you.” Dim let her continue to hug him.

Stop enjoying this.

‘Make me.’

Suddenly heavy rain came down in massive amounts, sounding like rocks hitting the house.

“Man, it must be awful to be stuck out there now. It’s gonna suck having to walk home from here.” Dim drifted off.

After a couple silent minutes of Dim comforting Silver Spoon because of the storm, a pony knocked on the door.

“Ms. Spoon, may I enter?” the same butler who greeted Dim at the door from before asked.

Silver Spoon quickly threw Dim off of her, “Yes, what is it?”

“A recent discovery has been made, which is this storm shall last until early tomorrow morning. That being said we have arranged for your friend here to spend the night. Is that okay with you two?” the butler asked regally.

Dim Shadow and Silver Spoon looked at each other intently

Absolutely not! I’d rather sleep in the rain!

‘Yeah right.’ his subconscious rang.

“Uh, sure?” Dim agreed somewhat hesitantly.

“Ms. Spoon?” The butler turned to Silver Spoon.

“Yeah yeah yeah, it’s okay.” Silver agreed.

“Good, I shall inform your parents of your approval.” the butler turned around and walked out the door, shutting it behind him.

“Well it looks like-”

“Don’t remind me, it looks like I have to tolerate you all night now.” Silver Spoon huffed.

“Well you were tolerating me pretty well a few minutes ago.” Dim smiled with a chuckled.

“Hey! That’s only because you were going to sob your eyes out because of a little thunder and you needed comfort!”

“Didn’t you say you hated the thunder, and wasn’t I the one you wouldn’t let go?”

“No, I-”

-CRASH-

Silver Spoon instantly latched herself around Dim, slowly staring into his eyes, annoyed that she just proved him correct. 

“Told you so.”
