Chapter 5

You have no idea how long you've been sitting there in the hospital bed of "Ponyville Heart." Sitting there crying your eyes out after what Applejack had said to you. She didn't tell you that she's in love with another stallion. What's that all about? Sitting there alone in the darkness with nothing but your thoughts as you're interrupted by a thundering sound and a lightning flash outside. Guessing the pegasis must of scheduled a storm tonight huh.

You covered yourself up as your sore arm's tucked underneath you. You just laied there crying, until you start to feel your eyes getting a bit heavy. Then you start to fall asleep.

* * * * * *

Opening your eyes. You've been awakened by the princesses sun beaming down on you. But you didn't bother opening your eyes, you just wished you wake up in the guest bedroom where you slept in at Sweet Apple Acres.

You hear a door opening, but still haven't bother opening your eyes. You don't care who it is, but if it's Applejack. You'll be damned well opening your eyes and hug her as tight as you can.

"Hey, buddy." You hear a familiar voice. It's Rainbow Dash. She knows you're awake. You slowly open your eyes to greet Rainbow Dash, Pinkie, and Twilight.

"Hey." You said getting up.

"How's your arm?" Twilight asked as she looked at the bloody bandage.

"Stings."

"I'm sorry." She said as she brings you in for a hug. "We heard about you and Applejack last night. We're really sorry she broke your heart like that."

"Yeah," Said Pinkie Pie getting into the conversation. "So we brought you some cake to cheer you up."

Okay, maybe a good slice of Sugarcube Corner cake can't hurt, can it? You just smiled a little bit.

"Thanks guys." You said as you took the fork from the cake and ate away. If you haven't used your right arm. It hurts like hell. The door opens again, there, was Fluttershy, and Rarity. Where's Applejack?

"Hi, darling. How are you?" Rarity asked you with a warm smile.

"Fine."

"That's good to hear." Said Fluttershy as she walked to the right side of the bed.

"W-Where's Applejack?"

"She said she couldn't make it here to see you, darling." Rarity said with the sad look on her face, and the others.

Rainbow Dash continues to speak. "She said that she was sorry about last night. But yeah, she couldn't make it here to see you."

"Is she bucking apple trees?" You asked in a quiet voice.

The others looked at each other, then to you. Something's not right. "Uh... yes. Yes she is." Rarity said as she and the others put on a fake smile. Something's definitely not right.

"Okay then." You said as you continued eating the cake Pinkie gave you. Just by the look on their faces, something's definitely not right about them. You just can't put your finger on it.

* * * * * *

Mean While, At Sweet Apple Acres.

Applejack bucks away on her apple bucking. She can't stop thinking about you, and what happened last night at the talent show, and at Ponyville Heart. She feels really bad that you had a crush on her for six long months.

"Hi, honey." Applejack hears a familiar voice to her left.

"Oh, hi hon." She said feeling down.

"What's wrong?"

"It's uh... it's nuthin" She said as she bucked the apple tree.

Her coltfriend seems to get that little unhappy look on his face. "I see, you're thinking about that... hideous human again, aren't you?"

"Uh? No, no ah wasn't." She said as she gets that sad look on her face.

"Uh-hu."He said. "I don't want you to go near him ever again!"

"He lives with us!" Applejack shouts.

"Then kick him out." Oh, he did not just say that.

"Ah can't kick him out like that! You know what wi-" Her thoughts were interrupted by her coltfriend slapping her across the face. "D-Did you just..." Applejack's speechless, and tears flooding her eyes.

"Hurts doesn't it? I don't want you to go near him ever again." He said through clenched teeth. "Understood?" Applejack just stood there in silence, scared out of her mind. "I'll keep that in mind." He said as he walked off. "I'll see you later."

"Yeah, see ya." She said in a soft tone and felt her cheek. "Ah can't believe he did that." She went back into her apple bucking as she tries to put that thought to the side. Now she's wishing you were here. And she's probably thinking that she never turned you down like that.

* * * * * *

A week has passed, and you've been laying on your bed what feels like a hundred years now. You hear a door open.

"Hey buddy." Nurse Redheart said smiling. "You have a special visitor." Special? You narrow a brow. She opens the door to let that 'special' visitor in. It's Applejack. But wait, she doesn't look a bit happy. She feels... sad.

"Applejack!" You said as you bring her into a hug. You smiled and tears of joy run down your face. "Oh my god! I can't believe you're here!"

"Hey, Sugarcube." She said putting on a fake smile.

"AJ, what's wrong?"

"Nuthin'."

"Wait, what happened to your eye?"

"Mah eye? Um..."

"Wait, did he... did that stallion hit you?"

"Now sugar, don't be-"

"HE HIT YOU DID HE?!?" A moment passed after Applejack starts to burst into tears. "Oh my god." You said in shock. "I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind when I-"

"Sugar!" Applejack cuts you off before you can finish. "Ah have to tell you somethin'." She said as tears drop away from her eyes.

"Y-You can't stay with us anymore." Wait, what did she just say? This turns your face from anger, to shocked.

"Huh?"

"They found that portal where you came from. After you get out of the hospital, it's time fer you to go home."

"N-N-No!" You said as you brought her into a hug that you can barley hold because of your arm, but Applejack breaks it. "I don't wanna go home AJ, I want Ponyville to be my home. You guys made me the most happiest human in the world. I don't wanna leave, not yet."

"Ah'm sorry, sugarcube." She said as she starts to walk off. "Ah'm really sorry."
