The Shimmer In Her Eyes, And The Sunset On Her Body

Arin's Little Confession

The alarm blares, I wake up, eat breakfast, and get going, ready for another day at school, and another day with Sun- wait where was she? I didn't see her on the bus as I made my way down to the last lone seat, because everyone just wants to be by themselves, apparently. Is Sunset absent? Aww. That kinda sucked. I was just wishing to just talk to her some more, and get to know her more. Well, guess I can spend some time with my old friend, Arin, and my friends, Gavin, Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Applejack. So, the bus moves onwards to school. Meanwhile, I put my earbuds in my ears, and listen to Green Day. Basically American Idiot the whole ride. I love that song.

And as soon as I get off, I walk in, noticing that buff guy talking to his buddies again. Bruin. Oh, I hope this day doesn't suck because of him. Well, maybe he'll just ignore me. Oh, who am I kidding? He's going to drill me. But that's til later! Lucky me!

But hey, anyways, the day starts with Reading/Language Arts with Arin. Ya, we had a good kick. He was just talking some jokes and everything, in which I responded with a laugh. "Oh, so, Rayne." Arin said to me. "Are you missing Sunset yet?" He was joking around, as usual. Almost as annoying as Rainbow Dash doing those stupid smooching noises when we were together yesterday.

But anyways, I answered with, "Just call it off, dude. You are really starting to act just like Dash, now." That was when he suddenly sat there, shocked. Huh?

"You talked with Rainbow Dash?!" He said fast. "THE Rainbow Dash? Rainbow-colored hair, blue skin, plays sports and guitar, and pretty much the tomboy of the school. For Pete's sake, bro, tell me!" He really seemed to be hipped up about me saying her name. Oh wait. He likes her doesn't he? Well, well, well. I quickly make a loud smooching noise, which irritated Arin. "Tell me, dude. PLEASE. I need that answer."

"You like her, dude. And yeah, I talked to her." I answered. "What? You wanna talk some romance into her and be her boyfriend? The party of two formed?" I chuckled and laughed. "Just messing with ya, bro." I kinda chuckled some more after that. How do you like it, Arin? Sweet, isn't it?

Arin then sighed. "Ya." he said without any hesitation. "Ever since I saw her, I got a beat on my chest. A rapid heartbeat. Like dude, I mean, I kinda got your feels whenever you looked at Sunset, which I'm sorry for joking around with you on that. I'm seriously yet scared of talking to her. She's cute, but she's like... AWESOME! So tomboyish, and that's what got me into liking her. Plus, her stunning looks. Yet, I never had the balls, the grapefruits, the very nerve to just move close to her and have some time to talk with her. Too scared to do so, as I feel like I'll screw up immediately, kissing goodbye to my chances of having a positive relationship with Dash. I mean, you and Sunset, it all just happened at that moment. Right then and there. Me? Oh, I don't know if I'll get the lucky chance of having the moment of success." I kinda frowned after hearing this.

"Hey, don't worry, dude." I told him, patting his back. And when the first period bell rang, we didn't leave, because this class filled two periods, but meanwhile, Rainbow just happened to walk in the hallway, and stopped to give a smiling wave to me, as Arin just sat there, watching. I kinda felt bad for him seeing that. "Don't worry, I got the Sunset, you have the Rainbow." I told him, as he looked down.

"You have it so easy right here, you know?" he said, sighing some more. Then, it hit me. Yesterday, I couldn't sit with him at lunch, so I sat with Shimmer and her friends, one of them being Dash, so maybe...

"Hey, Arin," I whispered to him. "You know, if you really want to have the girl, don't just stay in the shadows where she can't see a darn thing. Be out in the open." He then gave me a look. "Maybe," I continued. "You can sit by me, where Dash sits." Arin then took a big gulp. He had a quick sweating moment, thinking about it. Hard.

With a hard thinking moment, he finally sighs and says, "Alright, Arin is going to sit with you at lunch, right where Dash sits, and I'll try to make the move on her." I then stop him there.

"Woah, dude." I told him. "Don't just dive in like that. Just try to become a friend at first or something. Then move up the rankings to be that guy, just for her." He then smiled, and we bumped fists afterward.

"Well, damn, dude. Thanks." he told me.

I told him, "No problem." Quickly, Mr. Blazing, the teacher, coughs very loudly, as to get our attention and focus. He gives us both a look. A very serious look in the eyes of the beholder.

"Sorry." we both said.

"Sorry, again, is not an answer here." Mr. Blazing spoke out loud. "I just need your full attention and focus, and which means, you all should keep your mouths shut for the better good. Or maybe you can keep talking, and have a nice conversation with Principal Celestia. I'm sure she'll love to hear your shenanigans." We both shut up by then. Principal Celestia? Oh HELL no. Hell to the no. Though, she's sweet, she's the boss for god's sake. I will not take any punishments here, world.

And then the time passed again. We read the book some more again, and the period ended. Now, *sigh*, time for the next class... GYM.
