//------------------------------// // Chapter 14: Wounds Heal // Story: Fluttercord In Equestria Girls // by vcjb242 //------------------------------// MONDAY: Discord began his day ecstatically as he had never been this happy before. He walked down the hallways of the school, wiping down the lockers with a cloth and a sponge. Although he was elated, something was bothering him. The students of the school would normally look at him with disdain or repulsion, but this time it was a look of curiousity. Some students would walk by him and gave him a thumbs up as if greeting him or admiring him, while most of the guys would look at him with envy. Discord noticed that some of the girls would smile at him in a flirtatious way, others looked at him with disapproval shaking their heads. All of a sudden, two girls walked up to Discord. "Hello." Said one of the girls seductively. "I'm Lyra." "Eh?" Said Discord. "Hi?" "I really admire you assistant." Said Lyra. "You're really good at assisting." "Thanks....." Said Discord. "Lyra?" "Do you like ponies?" Asked Lyra. "I love them!" "Ok.....Lyra." Said Discord starting to feel uncomfortable. "They are majestic creatures but I don't like them that much." "Would you like me better if I was a pony?" Asked Lyra, blushing. "Wait, what?" Asked Discord, taken aback. Bonbon intervened. "Lyra!" Said Bonbon giggling. "I didn't think you would actually ask him." "F*ck yes!" Said Lyra saucily. "How embarrassing." Then Lyra ran away and Bon Bon ran after her. "What the hell just happened?" Asked Discord, looking in the direction that Lyra left. Then he continued with his normal day: He helped out in the cafeteria with Granny Smith and the Cakes. He helped out the students with their homework. Then after a long day of work, he had to go spend time with Twilight, but before going to see the girl with the purple skin, Discord wanted to see Fluttershy. The bell rang and all the students began to go home. Without wasting time, Discord looked for Fluttershy. He looked throughout the whole school. Then, after 10 minutes, he managed to find Fluttershy at the entrance of the school. "Hello Fluttershy." Said Discord greeting her in a friendly way. Fluttershy looked at Discord in surprise. "Ummm." Said Fluttershy shyly. "Hello Discord." "You're not happy to see me?" Said Discord feigning a sad face. "Are you?" "No Discord, it's not that!" Said Fluttershy comprehensively. "You just took me by surprise." Discord smiled. "Want me to walk you to your house?" Said Discord, happily. Fluttershy confirmed by nodding her head with a small smile. Discord grabbed Fluttershy's backpack and put it over his shoulders. Fluttershy smiled at how chivalrous Discord was being. Then they both left the school, walking side by side and laughing at some jokes that Discord told. Without noticing, some of the students saw that Fluttershy and Discord were together. They watched the couple walk away. The walk to Fluttershy's house was short, but very tranquil and happy, Discord made Fluttershy laugh, she adored Discord's company, none of her friends were as fun as he was. Upon getting to Fluttershy's house, Discord said his goodbye, then he had to go back to see Twilight. Twilight was waiting for Discord in the library. Discord arrived and apologized to Twilight for being late. "Oops."Said Discord. "Sorry Twilight, I had an important matter to attend to." Twilight gave Discord an annoyed expression. "You're very late." Said Twilight, very annoyed. "You ditched me." "I said I was sorry!" Responded Discord. "It wasn't my intention." "You're a very bad friend." Said Twilight creasing her brow. "I trusted you." Discord wanted to avoid anymore problems with Twilight. "Ok Twilight." Sighed Discord. "How can I make it up to you?" Twilight had an idea. "Will you accompany me this Saturday to Canterlot hill." Said Twilight. "To see the meteor shower." "Ok ok." Said Discord, not caring about what she said. "I'll go." "That's great!" Said Twilight happily. TUESDAY Discord began his day with enthusiasm, Fluttershy no longer was afraid of him. When he walked her home the other day, he made her laugh a lot. Discord felt very optimistic, maybe Fluttershy would be the right girl. Discord blushed thinking about this, but he quickly shook his head. Discord thought that Fluttershy was too beautiful for him. After finishing his morning chores, he went to go work with the Cakes. It was curious, he had a big number of students to attend to, the majority of which were girls. For Discord, it was a bother. He detested having to attend people but he had to do his duty. It was a strange occurrence; the girls would greet him, and this was a strange thing because they had never greeted him before, they only looked at him with disgust before. Some of them would ask Discord some things that were confusing: "I also like animals" Others said: "Out of curiousity, do you have Facebook?" Others said: "What's your number?" Discord wasn't very sociable, the comments coming from the girls bothered him, but they weren't as bad as the comments coming from the guys: "You sly dog" Others Said: "How did you do it?" Others said: "Who's the better kisser?" Discord didn't know what was going on but he didn't really care. All he wanted was for the day to end so he could go see the girl with the butter colored skin. The day was finally over, Discord knew that he had to go spend time with Applejack today, but the apple girl would have to wait, he wanted to be with Fluttershy. Discord found Fluttershy at the school entrance. They left but first they stopped by the animal shelter, to feed the animals. Then they went to Fluttershy's house. At the main entrance of her house, Discord watched Fluttershy as she entered her house, she waved goodbye affectionately. After Fluttershy entered her house, he sprinted on over to Sweet Apple Acres to spend time with Applejack. Applejack was disgusted with his tardiness. Discord hadn't shown up on time to help her with her chores. When Discord finally arrived at Sweet Apple Acres, he also had to apologize to Applejack. Applejack was mad at him. "You're so insensitive." Said Applejack. "I trusted you ta get here on time ta help with ma chores." "Pardon me Applejack." Said Discord, bowing slightly. "How can I make it up to you?" Applejack blushed. "I'd like for you to accompany me on Saturday." Said Applejack. "To see the meteor shower?" Asked Discord. "Exactly, sugar cube." Said Applejack. "I'd like for you to go with me." "Eh....ok?" Said Discord. WEDNESDAY Discord continued with his routine, and it was a very boring routine but it was worth it, in hopes of seeing his girl. He finished his cleaning and kitchen duties but he still had to tutor the students. He was helping out the Cutie Mark Crusaders. The three girls were fun compared to other students, Discord got along really well with them. "Ha ha" Said Applebloom. "That was fun, mister Discord!" "It's easy girls." Said Discord. "I hope that it really helped you." "Your way of doing it is a lot more easier than Cheerilee's method and way more fun." Said Sweetiebelle. "Haha" Said Discord happily. "Thanks." Then Scootaloo took out a big gift from her backpack. "This is for you assistant Discord." Said Scootaloo. "For me?" Said Discord. The three girls smiled at him. "We did it for you." Said Applebloom. "For being such a good friend." Discord looked at the gift with curiosity. "You're now an official member of the Cutie Mark Crusaders." Said Sweetie Belle. Discord smiled. "Wow!" Said Discord. "Thank you!" He opened the gift, the surprise was enormous the gift was a scooter. "Incredible!" Said Discord. "It used to be Scootaloo's." Said Applebloom. "But she broke it and I fixed it up." "I painted it." Said Sweetie Belle. "I wrapped it." Said Scootaloo. "Thank you!" Said Discord happily. "It really means a lot to me." After finishing his work with assisting the students; Discord used the scooter that the crusaders gave him. He set it down and used it to glide through the school hallways. He sped through the hallways at great velocity, for Discord this was fun. Some of the students had to step to the side, much to their annoyance thanks to Discord's antics. He whooshed by Celestia, making her mad. "Discord!" Yelled Celestia furiously. "It is strictly against school rules for anybody to be using skateboards and scooters inside of the school." "Relax Trollestia!" Discord yelled back, enjoying the rush of adrenaline. Discord continued to scoot down the hallways of the school in the direction of the main exit. He passed by Luna. "Hey Lulu!" Said Discord, laughing at her. Luna was offended by this nickname and she just happened to be holding a metal ruler. She calculated the trajectory and aimed it at Discord's scooter. The ruler hit one of the wheels of the scooter, causing him to lose control, due to the velocity, Discord went flying full force out the nearest window. Discord flew out the window, breaking the glass and falling onto the lawn of the school. Some of the students looked out to see if he was alright, Luna also looked out the window to look at Discord, worried that she might have made him break something. Discord was on the ground, and all around him there was broken glass. "Ouch!" Said Discord in a low voice, moving a bit from the ground with his eyes still closed, feeling pained. "I'll have to take money from your salary to pay for that broken window! Also, sorry I made you fly out a window!" Yelled Luna from where she was, giving a small smile. Then Luna left the scene of the accident with the curious students following, Discord spent a few seconds on the ground then he got up and it was very painful. He went to get a broom and dust pan to sweep up the broken glass, but he didn't take the glass out of his back. Finally it was the end of the school day. Discord went to look for Fluttershy despite the fact that he was in pain. He found himself with Fluttershy. "Hello Fluttershy." Said Discord smiling, even though he was in pain. "Hello Discord." Said Fluttershy returning the smile. Discord accompanied Fluttershy to her house. While they walked, they talked. "How were your classes?" Asked Discord. "They were great." Said Fluttershy taking a good look at Discord. "Are you ok Discord?" "Yes!" Said Discord a bit nervously. "Why do you ask?" "I found out about your scooter accident." Said Fluttershy. Discord frowned. "Wow, good gossip sure travels fast. Don't worry about it Fluttershy." Said Discord. "Nothing incredibly bad happened." Fluttershy held out her hand to stop Discord. Discord didn't really know the reason why they had stopped and was confused on why they stopped. She got closer to Discord and began to examine him. Fluttershy took notice that Discord had a lot of wounds made by the broken glass from the window on his arms and his back. Some of the wounds were pretty deep, because they were bleeding. Fluttershy was scared upon seeing Discord's terrible state of health. "Oh my god!" Said Fluttershy. "This is serious." "Don't worry." Said Discord. "I'm fine." "No!" Said Fluttershy. "It's not fine." Without wasting time, Fluttershy took Discord by the hand and took him somewhere to clean his wounds. Fluttershy took Discord to a veterinary clinic. They entered the clinic and Fluttershy took Discord by the hand and took him into a nearby room. Discord was not happy with this, and he looked at Fluttershy a bit annoyed. "Fluttershy..." Said Discord a bit offended. "Believe it or not, I'm not an animal." Fluttershy began to giggle softly. "It's not what you think." Said Fluttershy. "I also volunteer here at this veterinary clinic." "What?" Asked Discord. Fluttershy put on a white lab coat and opened a cabinet and got out a first aid kit. She took out hydrogen peroxide and cotton swabs. "Um, can you take your shirt off?" Said Fluttershy, blushing. "What?" Said Discord now blushing as well. "Forget it!" "I have to clean your wounds and remove the remaining glass fragments." Said Fluttershy now beet red. Discord felt very embarrassed, but with much hesitation he removed his shirt. Fluttershy was blushing a lot upon seeing Discord shirtless. Without wasting anymore time, she began to clean his wounds and remove the glass. Using medical tongs, she carefully removed the remaining glass shard and disposed of them carefully. Discord winced after each shard was pulled but he knew it was necessary. Discord felt very agitated from the peroxide, even though Fluttershy was cleaning the wounds carefully. Then Fluttershy used band aids and medical tape to cover up the larger wounds. Discord felt a lot of shame, because she had seen him shirtless. "Why didn't you go to the school nurse?" Asked Fluttershy. "You had a lot of wounds." "Everytime I get hurt, I never clean my wounds." Said Discord. "I don't seem to die from them getting infected becuse they never have gotten infected somehow. It's always been that way." "Well it won't be that way anymore." Said Fluttershy. Finally, Fluttershy finished cleaning and bandaging his wounds. Discord put his shirt back on and Fluttershy hung up the lab coat. "Thank you so much Fluttershy." Said Discord. "No one had ever been worried about me before." "Don't worry Discord." Said Fluttershy. "That's what friends are for." Discord smiled, and Fluttershy smiled shyly. It began to get dark and they walked to the main entrance of her house. "Again, thank you so much Fluttershy." Said Discord shyly. Fluttershy smiled. "No problem Diz" Said Fluttershy timidly. "I'll see you tomorrow." "See you tomorrow Flutter." Said Discord with his eyes shining. Fluttershy smiled and entered her house. Discord went back to the school very happy, he had spent an entire day with Fluttershy, although Discord felt like he was forgetting something. It was night time by the time Discord entered the school, he noticed that Pinkie Pie was still waiting for him next to the main entrance outside of the school, in the dark. "Where have you been?" Asked Pinkie angrily. Discord noticed that there was something different about Pinkie, her hair was straight and it looked more gray than pink. "What's going on Pinkie?" Asked Discord "'Ive been waiting for you for hours and you took forever to show up." Said Pinkie angrily. "How could you do this to me?!" Discord got a little scared seeing an angry Pinkie. "Wait, calm down." Said Discord. "I'll make it up to you, I promise." "Will you go with me to the meteor shower!" Pinkie roared at him. "Don't tell me." Said Discord wanting to smack himself for even agreeing to this. "It's gonna be on Saturday?" "Okie Dokeie Lokie!!" Yelled Pinkie Pie, hugging Discord and letting her hair go back into it's usual poof and her skin turning back to pink. "It's a date." Discord was frustrated from the sudden affection, and he quickly got out of Pinkie's iron grip. "Okie Dokie Lokie!" Said Pinkie, waving goodbye to Discord. Then Pinkie bounced away happily. "For the love of God." Said Discord angrily. "What shi.. do they have in their brains do these dumb students have. Also, why did I agree to go with them?" Then he entered the school and went to the library to sleep. TO BE CONTINUED
