The Sweet Sounding Belle

by Lewis a Cute Pegasus


The Stage Fright Strikes

Featherweight sits down on a cushion and waits as Sweetie Belle gets some snacks before the what seems like her one millionth practice begins. She comes back wearing a dress that Rarity made for the talent show, a pink and yellow fabric with a heart embroidered in and what seems like quite a bit of glitter, and a crown made from some gems Rarity generously used. She walked in elegantly too, and a smile on her face.

Featherweight had a hard time to stifle a bigger "N'aaaaaaaw!" from the adorableness, his heart skipped a few beats and almost fainted. A blush plastered above his coat as he mentally squees and n'awws. Sweetie Belle giggles, which ends up getting a "N'aaaaaaaaaaaaw!" from Featherweight and a brighter blush too. Sweetie Belle blushes a bit, and hugs Featherweight, much to his surprise.

Featherweight sits there for a good 10 minutes comprehending what just happened. Thought rushing in such as "D-did my crush just... hug me?!" and "That did not just happen, that is impossible, who would hug me?!" but then finally hugged Sweetie Belle back and faints.

Featherweight wakes up in a bed, still inside the tree house like clubhouse, and looks around, confused and gets glomped by Sweetie Belle, who was worried.
"I'm so glad you're awake! I thought I lost you!" Sweetie Belle hugged Featherweight tight and shed a few tears.
"I-I'm okay Sweetie Belle really-" Featherweight choked, "-but i would be more okay if you stopped hugging so tight"
"Oops, sorry." Sweetie Belle apologized and dropped Featherweight who dropped to the ground with a thump. His eyes span dizzily. He shook his head and sat up.

Featherweight looked around, "When are you gonna sing?" he asked. Sweetie Belle double-taked three times and gulped. She never felt this nervous before, like ever. Sweetie Belle cleared her throat and tried to sing the first line in her song but nothing came out. She was confused and scared why nothing came out her mouth.
"You okay, Sweetie Belle?" Featherweight asked, tilting his head in concern. Sweetie Belle sweat a bit, and looked around trying to quickly think of a reason, even if it did have to be a lie.
"U-U-Um... u-uh..." Sweetie Belle failed to think of a reason and tried to restart but yet again nothing came out. She kept trying and trying till she finally curled up and sobbed, making Featherweight really worried and concerned for the poor, adorable filly.

Featherweight runs to Sweetie Belle and cuddles her to comfort her, petting her mane to comfort her more, and just lets her cry till she can't cry no more before talking to her again, still cuddling.
"You done, Sweetie Belle?" Featherweight asked in a concerned yet soft voice.
"I-I-I think so..." Sweetie Belle responded, sniffling and wiping her eyes.
"What was wrong?"
"I................I............I........" Sweetie Belle hid her face in her hooves.
"I AM HAVING THE WORST STAGE FRIGHT!" Sweetie Belle shouted and cried again, only this time Featherweight snuggled up to her, making the both of them blush and Sweetie Belle to stop crying, but mildly sobbing. Featherweight couldn't bare to see her in this state, so he looked around and pecked her cheek, and covered his bright blushing cheeks with his wings.

Sweetie Belle suddenly stopped sobbing, surprised Featherweight kissed her cheek. Her tiny heart fluttered as she fainted.

Sweetie Belle woke up and looked at a sleeping Featherweight, she kissed his muzzle and snuggled up to him, and falls asleep once again
