Diamonds in the Snow

1) Prelude

Written letter:
----------
"Dear Double Diamond,
I've known you for a long time, but recently I feel like I've seen the real you. I never knew how much I really cared about you. I value our friendship so much to the point it makes me want to scream my heart out. That may sound bad, but I'm just willing to go to extreme ends for you. The way you look when you bullet down a slope, or when you finally reach the bottom to all of us cheering. I wish I had the guts to tell this to you forward, or even the guts to sign my name. But, hey, I guess you have a secret admirer then.

~Sincerely, Your secret admirer

The blue stallion looked down at what he had written. He reread it to make sure he got what he wanted out of it and blushed as his heart started to race. Just thinking about Double Diamond was enough to make his entire face turn red. He even considered calling himself tomato head. He then folded the letter and sealed it in an envelope.

It was very dark in the midst of night. The stallion trotted out the door, and he was greeted by the crickets' songs while he made his way across the large open street. He paused for a minute, for he did not want anyone to notice him. He left the letter outside the door and quietly galloped home. He made extra sure that no one would see who he was, for he didn't want the sudden attention of his friends. He looked at the clock, and it read 2:00 am. He yawned as he moved his way to the bedroom. He stretched his back and went under the covers.

Party Favor drifted off to sleep...
