//------------------------------// // Chapter 6:Thoughts // Story: Crystal Clear // by Emerald Gem //------------------------------// It was a week from the day that Candy had said those mean things about Claire. Claire had gotten over it, but that memory still lay in her mind. She was walking through ponyville to Prism's house when she saw Annie at the market and decided to say hi. When Annie turned and saw Claire coming, she got very excited. "Claire! Congratulations!" She said. "Huh? What are you talking about?" "You and Prism, of course." Annie said "Oh, right. Thanks." Claire said sadly "Whats wrong? Aren't you happy?" " Yeah, it'sjust that everpony found out, it would become a disaster." "Oooook...." Annie said, not really understanding the concept. "Ok, what I mean is, that if word keeps getting around, it will eventually reach Pokey." "First of all, how is that a bad thing? Secondly, doesn't he already know?" "He doesn't know!! Candy doesn't tell everypony everything! And it's a bad thing because if he found out that I made his daughter mad about our relationship, he would get boiling mad!!" Clair said, pulling on her mane. "Claire, Claire, relax, calm down." Annie said, It's not like he can't hit you or anything." "Prism hit whirlwind once..." Claire mumbled. ".........um...... Ok, Prism is not as..... How do I say it.....he's not.... Mature. Pokey is mature enough to know that men don't hit girls. "Yeah but still I.... I .....*Moans and Slumps on the ground*" "Hey... How about you come to my place and we could have some tea?" Annie said, patting Claire on the back. "That would be nice.... But.... I'm supposed to be meeting Prism for something." "What is it? If it's important, then just forget about my offer." "Well, I don't know." "Well then, I could just invite him over." "Ok.... Yeah... That'll work." "Than lets go" Annie said as she and Claire made their way to her house.
