//------------------------------// // A Awesome Weekend // Story: An Act Of Kindness // by Xexal //------------------------------// An Act of Kindness by Xexal edited by Darkstar0z Chapter three:   A   Awesome   Weekend I had gotten up this morning expecting that every thing last night was a dream, but instead I awoke to Fluttershy staring at me doing a little dance. " Oh thank goodness you're awake, Alex I have to go to the bathroom, but I was too afraid to wake you up or leave the room " she said while she jigged up and down. I looked at her and tried not to laugh, that dance she was doing was pretty funny. " Sorry, you could have woken me up. here let me show you to the bathroom " I said and headed out the door and around the corner to the downstairs bathroom. " Here you go, right in there " I said to Fluttershy the bathroom was a grey color and was covered with big ladybug wall sticker which mom thought were a good touch. " Please wait out here for me? " she asked giving me her signature puppy eyes. My heart pretty much melted twelve times over. " Alright I will be right out side, now hurry up, you don't want to pee your pants " I said scooting her in the bathroom and closed the door. I heard Cayle running up the stairs, he had his clothes in his hands, he was ready to take a shower obviously. " Can't go in there " I said blocking his way from the door. " Why? " he asked trying to push past me but I jumped back into his way " Flut.. I mean, Shyla is in there, so you will have to wait " I said hoping Cayle didn't catch my slip up. " Um, ok I'm going to go sit down, you just do whatever you’re doing " he said then patted my shoulder and went into the living room. A couple minutes passed and I heard no noise in the bathroom, but then I heard a flush and a yelp. Frantically Fluttershy burst through the door, tripped over her own feet, and landed on me. " Alex, Alex! The toilet growled at me when I pushed the button, then everything made slurp sound so I got really scared and ran. Thanks for catching me " she said sitting on my stomach, I tried to catch my breath after having the wind knocked out of me. “ Yeah, thats supposed to happen, it means you flushed  “ I said with a chuckle, my mom stepped out from her bedroom and gave me a angry look. “ Its not what you think, she fell, I swear ” I said. My mom just turned away and ignored me. I turned my attention to fluttershy who was laughing at me. I gave her an not so amused look. “ Heh sorry ” she said then stood up and lent out her hand to help me up. As we walked into the living room the the news was on the tv talking about strange storms up in the north east right around our area. They say its something that they have never seen before that it appeared out of know where. I shrugged it off, I didn’t care much of the weather though Fluttershy was glued to the television. “ Hey Alex, how do you guys make the weather, that man said that the storm just appeared. How is that possible? ” she asked me as  we walked into the kitchen where the smell of pancakes and maple syrup filled the air. “ Well you see, here in our dimension we don't have magic, pegasus or unicorns for that matter. I mean we have ponies but they don’t have aspirations they're more of pets than anything,um no offense to you or your friends. We use machines and technology to pinpoint when a storm will hit, but sometimes we can be wrong. We say clear day, and it ends up raining cats and dogs, not literally but metaphorically. ” I explained evolution, the rise and set of the moon and the sun, and how our nation is run on monkeys with cymbals. I grabbed two plates one for me and one for her, I grabbed a pancake off the dish and set it on the plate then repeated the step over for my on plate. I grabbed us forks and knives out of the drawer  and set the table. I started to eat when I noticed Fluttershy was having trouble with the silverware. “ Do you need help? ” iI asked, she gave me a nod and I started to cut it for her. “ See this is how you do it, you stick the fork into the pancake then slice it with the knife. Now here comes the easy part, you pick up the piece you just cut with your fork and wala! now you try. ” I said giving her a smile “ Like this? ” she said cutting the piece of pancake. “ Yep, just like that, now pick it up and eat it ” I said with a chuckle she stabbed the piece with her fork and pulled it up and ate it. “ Yay! I did it ” she cooed softly then clapped her hands together then stopped when my mom walked in, Fluttershy started to giggle and my mom just smiled at the both of us. She grabbed a cup of coffee and sat down at the table. “ So what are you guys doing today? Anything ‘fun’? “ she said putting emphasis on fun, I gave her a look as if saying don’t go there. But she just gave me a wink. “ No, we’re going to get Shyla some new clothes ” I said with a nod, Fluttershy giggled, I think she still wasn’t used to being called Shyla. “ Yeah its going to be ‘fun’ ” Fluttershy said softly mimicking my mom and I busted up laughing, I looked at mom who also couldn’t help but laugh. Fluttershy started laughing because I was laughing, so it took awhile for all of us to calm down  “ What are you going to wear there? You can’t wear pajamas, they will laugh at you. here lets see if I have anything you can put on before you guys leave ” my mom said grabbing Fluttershy’s arm and dragging her to her bedroom. I waited about an half hour for my mom to find something for fluttershy to wear. During this time I started texting jake about coming to the mall with me, I told him I would pick him up when I was ready.  “ We’re done “ mom said from her bedroom then escorted Fluttershy into the living room, my mouth dropped, she was wearing a yellow loose neck sweater with a white tank top and green skirt. “ You're beautiful ” I blurted out not even thinking. Fluttershy blushed a bright shade of red. “ You really think so? ” she said observing her new clothes. She looked pretty excited to hear that. “ Yeah, I mean it . Now  we should get going, if we want to reach the mall  before lunch “ I said looking at the time on my phone.  We headed out to the car and fluttershy was skittish to get in. “ What? ” I asked  “ What is that thing? ” Fluttershy said then, started to approach the window of my car “ this my dear, is  our means of transportation, it's like a carriage but with a motor. It’s  safe I'm a great driver. ” I said getting out. I opened up the passenger door for her to get in. “ I trust you ” Fluttershy said then sat down in the car. I drove  over to Jake's house, Jake had been waiting outside. He walked up to the door and noticed Fluttershy and gave me an odd look.   “ Hey Alex, um hi I'm Jake ” Jake said, jake said reaching his hand into the front for Fluttershy to shake. At first she was skittish because he was someone new until I gave her the ok with a gentle nod. “ N..nice to m-meet you my name is ….” She said but didn’t finish she had already forgotten what her alias was. She started to panic and gave me a hard stare. “Jake I can trust you right?” I said looking in the rearview mirror, While keeping an eye on the interstate. “ Yeah of course, why is there some thing you need to tell me?” he asked looking back and forth between me and Fluttershy. He gave Fluttershy a closer look, something dinged in his head but he couldn’t place what it was. “Jake I would like to introduce you to Fluttershy, I found her in the woods. She will be staying until I find her a way to get home. “ I said looking at jake, I pulled off the interstate and  headed down the road to the mall. Jake’s eyes were real wide and he didn’t say anything  for the rest of the way there. I finally pulled into the mall and found a really good parking space. I decided to wait for jake to come back to earth. “ Cool ” he said all composed and collective, I looked at him in shock. “Thats it?” I said but I spoke too soon, he screamed at the top of his lungs . “ This is so friggin AWESOME, I was unsure to believe you at first, but it adds up. “ he said  quickly unbuckling him self. Fluttershy who fell asleep during the ride was now shaken awake by Jake’s outburst of joy. “ Sorry Fluttershy I didn’t mean to wake you im just really really excited to meet you ” Jake said  with a smile plastered on his face. I guess he was in a state of shock because Jake didn't act like this usually. When I took the news it felt kind of  normal like I had seen this happen before even though the possibility of it happening  was slim, I always knew it was going to happen, I just can’t explain how or why I knew. “ Thats alright, are we here? ” Fluttershy said only seeming to care about the mall. I ruled it off that she was eager to get new clothes or or something along the lines. I gave her a nod and we headed inside the mall. She clung to my arm, as we walked by people they gave me looks weird look  not mean weird but jealous weird. Jake gave me a smile and a thumbs up, i shot him my look. The same one i use on cayle, and he stopped. We stopped at a clothing store and went inside. My mom made Fluttershy a list of what she needed. “ Um Alex what are underwear? ” She asked giving me a quizzical look. Of all questions she needed to ask me it had to be this one i thought, then forced an explanation “ It covers your downstairs ” I said pointing down “ What? ” she asked. I face palmed  “ Your girl parts? ” I said trying to keep calm this was one conversation i didn't want to have. “ Oh ” fluttershy said then blushed. I laughed she then gave me puppy eyes. “ can you help me find some? ” She said in  her shy cute voice. I almost fell over dead, one from sheer cuteness. The second reason is helping a girl find underwear  was one of the most embarrassing things I would ever have to do in my entire life.  We found all the clothes she wanted and she went into the dressing room. I waited a while I heard bumping around like she was struggling. Jake had went to go check a game out a gamestop and had not returned though he said he would be a while. I knocked on the door. “ Um fluttershy? You alright in there? Do you need any help?” I asked. “ Yeah im fine, I almost fell trying to put on some ‘pants’ ” She said. After we were all done shopping and we met back up with Jake. We decided to get something to eat , we sat at a nice new restaurant ,maybe not new but new to me. I ordered some french fries and gravy. Jake had almost ordered a cheeseburger but I talked him out of it  and he got a pizza with only cheese. I didn’t want Fluttershy seeing us eat meat she would think im a monster. There was a salad bar in which she had a field day, because every saturday had been free salad day. Time passed by really fast, we stopped at some other stores I got fluttershy a cell phone and  with and we got three thousand free minutes for being the three thousandth  buyer. On the way home jake and Fluttershy talked about life in equestria, some of the stuff I wanted to know came up. I didn’t talk much, because of driving at night I needed to be most concentrated.  We didn’t get home till very late I dropped jake off, then pulled into my driveway. Fluttershy had fallen asleep in the car once again, so I picked her up  her head rested on  my shoulder, and started letting out sighs that would have made my knees buckle from my heart being melted. I laid her down on my bed,as I turned to go and get on the couch she grabbed my arm. “ Don’t leave, please lay beside me? “she asked I didn’t fight her well one fact is I couldn’t it would too sensitive of me and the other was, well I  really want to lay next to her. “ I'm not going anywhere without you ” I said and got to the bed I started stroking her hair softly she slipped back into sleep  and I quickly followed after.
