Complications...LOVEly complications
It was 7:41am. Button yawned, stretching his hooves, as he tried to recall what happened last night.
"Good morning Sweetie Belle." said Button sleepily. He ran his hooves through her beautiful mane.
"What is it about you and my mane?" asked Sweetie Belle, laughing. Button shrugged.
"Button, Sweetie Belle, time for breakfast!" shouted Love Tap."Rarity will be here soon, so you'd better hurry."
"Uhhhh." Button moaned." Five more minutes." Button shoved the covers over himself and Sweetie Belle. Love Tap trotted up the stairs and shook Button out of bed.
"Mom, what's for breakfast?" asked Button, falling out of bed." Zeykamiff!"
"Button, watch your language!" exclaimed Love Tap sternly." We're having french toast for breakfast."
The two foals trotted down the stairs, high-hoofing each other. They smiled as both of them liked french toast. Both of them sat down and ate a fair share of french toast, earning themselves a journey to the bathroom... to brush their teeth of course!
"Uh, I need to brush my teeth." moaned Button, taking his toothbrush.
"What shall I use?" asked Sweetie Belle innocently. Button walked out of the bathroom. Five seconds later, he walked back into the bathroom, passing a toothbrush to Sweetie Belle.
"Here, you can have this one." Button frowned.
"What's wrong, Button?" questioned Sweetie belle with concern, looking at the toothbrush.
"Well, it's just that I got that toothbrush from a Manecraft convention." said Button, sobbing a little. Then he smiled," But you can still use it."
Sweetie Belle laughed. The two foals brushed their teeth, before the doorbell rang. Love Tap opened the door.
"Well hello darling, I've come to pick up Sweetie Belle." started Rarity.
"She's upstairs. I'll get her in a minute, so why don't you come in?" replied Love Tap.
"Of course, darling." nodded Rarity, entering the house, being met the the average layout.
"Sweetie Belle, be a dear and pop downstairs please. I've come to collect you." shouted Rarity.
"Obviously." Button whispered to Sweetie Belle. "Why else would she be here?"
Sweetie Belle giggled, trotting down the stairs after hugging Button goodbye. She held Rarity's hoof and walked out of the house.
"Bye Button's mom, bye Button!" exclaimed Sweetie Belle.
"See you later, Sweetie Belle!" replied Button, waving his hoof. Sweetie Belle returned the gesture, before trotting off with Rarity to the Boutique. Love Tap shut the door.
"So, what happened last night?" asked Love Tap cheerfully. Button gulped nervously...

Rarity opened the door to the Boutique and let Sweetie Belle in before closing it. Sweetie Belle smiled as she remembered the events of last night, giving off an audible giggle.
"What's funny, Sweetie Belle?" asked Rarity. "It's my bed-hair, isn't it? I should've brushed it!"
"No." smiled Sweetie Belle. "It's just what happened last night."
"Ooohhh, Button Mash eh? Looks like my little sister has a crush!" grinned Rarity, making Sweetie Belle blush.
"W-what, no!" stammered Sweetie Belle. "H-he's just my friend."
"You mean your coltfriend." joked Rarity, puckering her lips.
"You're just as bad as Apple Bloom and Scootaloo, you know that right?" said Sweetie Belle unamused, wearing an emotionless face.
"I'm just joking dear." said Rarity innocently, snickering a little. She loved winding her little sister up, just like a mom of a certain BM. Sweetie Belle rolled her eyes, and trotted up the stairs. She entered her room, thinking about some ideas for a cutie mark... and every so often her mind would linger off to a very special brown earth pony.

It was 4:57, nearly time for the CMC meeting, so Button trotted out of the house. Love Tap grunted; she loved the fact that her younger son was finally getting friends, but she felt that she hated the fact that Button was no longer spending that much time with her. Jealousy, thought Love Tap, chuckling slightly. I'm getting jealous of my son making friends.
Button trotted off to Sweet Apple Acres and opened the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Surprisingly, he found Sweetie Belle sitting their, smiling to herself. Both ponies blushed, and their eyes locked, until two f(buy some apples) squeaker voices interrupted.
"So, what were you two doin' in the bath last night?" asked Scootaloo, grinning at Apple Bloom. The gamer duo blushed as red as a strawberry that got dipped in raspberry pulp.
"W-what are you talking about!?!?" chuckled Sweetie Belle nervously.
"Were you two doin' somethin' really love-related?" questioned Apple Bloom.
"W-what, no!" stammered Button Mash, hitting his hoof on the wood. He rubbed his hoof after it started hurting.
"Maybe they were smooching about in the tub!!" shouted Scootaloo.
"Actually, we were trying to get our cutie marks in water saving." muttered Sweetie Belle, Button nodding his approval.
"Will, it's kinda nice that Button tried to get Sweetie Belle her cutie mark and all, but you really need ta stap acting all lovey-dovey with her." joked Apple Bloom.
"W-what do you mean?" shouted Button, agitated. "Oh, so you're telling me to NOT help ponies get their cutie mark? I thought the reason this club was so that ponies COULD get their mark, and that everypony else would help them."
"Wow, man, you need to calm down. It's just a joke." said Scootaloo calmly.
"Oh, so you want ME to calm down? Maybe you two are over-reacting over our simple friendship!" exclaimed Button Mash through gritted teeth. Even though Button wanted more, he knew that a friendship was all that he and Sweetie Belle were having. Sweetie sighed, as she had the same feelings for Button as he did for her. Suddenly, Button fainted onto Sweetie Belle's shoulder, mainly from stress. Sweetie Belle carried Button in her arms and laid him down onto the floor of the clubhouse, putting her hoof on his forehead, checking for temperature. She let out a sigh of relief knowing that he did not have one.
"A-ah think we should cut our crusades short fer today, Sweetie Belle. Looks like Button ain't doin' well. Maybe we should call fer his mom." suggested Apple Bloom.
"No!" shouted Sweetie Belle. "This is the first time Button is going on a crusade, and we can't let him down. Why don't we just wait for him to wake up then we can carry on."
"I agree with Sweetie Belle. He might just need to have a little rest after his 'moment'." grinned Scootaloo, while Sweetie Belle rolled her eyes.
5 minutes later...
"Well, looks like Sleeping Beauty's woken up." laughed Scootaloo. Button yawned, while Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom chuckled at his sudden opening of the mouth. "Why don't we go get our cutie marks?!"
"Yay!" cheered the four foals, hoof-bumping each other. They headed out of the clubhouse door, while Applejack (who was bucking a few nearby apples) laughed to herself.
"Ah miss being young." she smiled.
