One of those days

by Dusty Sunrise


Change of plans.

Twilight watched Dusty as he got up and stared outside, suddenly, she became curious and was about to ask what he was doing, but Dusty had already ran out the door, and she heard the pitter-patter of rain, and pretty soon, she began to hear thunder, the weather team had scheduled a storm, but she didn't expect it to be this bad, she looked down and noticed Spike fast asleep next to her, everything was peaceful until...

Lightning struck the house.

Dusty ran inside frantically, and soon got distracted by Spike crying, "The thunder is scaring him in his sleep.” Twilight explained, Dusty just nodded and got right to work fixing up the roof.

After a few minutes, Twilight decided to read a book that she found in Dusty's room, it was an interesting book about a long lost prince who had to regain his title. How am I going to tell Dusty how I feel? She thought, I probably won't get the cha-- Twilight was interrupted when she heard Dusty hit the floor, she was about to ask him if he was alright, when he grinned at her and stuck his tongue out. Oh, Dusty... she smiled, rolled her eyes and continued reading her story. Her mind was affixed on the way he smiled at her, How I wish you could smile at me like that every day.

She noticed out of the corner of her eye, she saw Dusty reading with her, he was so close...but yet so far, she continued reading and felt something warm against her back, she looked at her left and noticed an orange hoof around her, she looked to her right and was caught staring into Dusty's eyes, her face began to grow red, He is so close! she screamed in her mind, Twilight was just about to make her move when Dusty did it first. Twilight began freaking out, Oh my gosh! she cheered, He just kissed me! she then noticed that Dusty looked sad,

"I'm sorry... I shouldn't have..." his voice trailed off, then he got up and ran into his room, slamming the door shut.

"Dusty..." she muttered, as she blindly placed a hoof on her cheek, Now's my chance... she thought to herself, as she began to cast a spell, the bedroom door opened and Twilight chuckled as she dangled Dusty upside down and brought him to her face, “Can you please let me down?” he pleaded, “I’m getting lightheaded.” And so she did, I'm going to do it. she urged herself, she saw Dusty staring at the ground in front of her, she softly brought his head up to look at her, then planted her lips against his, as Twilight was about to pull away, she felt Dusty pull her back in for a few more seconds before finally pulling away.

Best. Day. Ever! she thought to herself as they pulled each other into an embrace.

Twilight noticed the sun began to rise, and began to start a conversation, "Remember why we started calling you Dusty?” Twilight asked Dusty, “It’s because when you’re standing in the sun, your coat looks fuzzy like dust packed up together, at first it was an insult from Rainbow, but people thought that it fit you better than ‘Sweet’ so we decided to start calling you that.” Twilight chuckled, “She said it made you look ugly,” Twilight pulled him outside, and the sun took its effect, “But I think it makes you look adorable.” After she said that, she pulled him in for another kiss.

"What in Equestria are you two doing?" Not again! she shouted in her mind as she saw Rainbow Dash in the corner of her eye.
