The cafeteria was loud as could be, except the table with the Rainbooms and the Dazzlings and Goldie's friends. Goldie looked at Skully frustrated, “What's that's supposed to mean?” Adagio was going to start with Aria but Skully cut her off.
“You know what I mean, all the ideas we have for videos you know all too well where I'm going with this” , Skully spoke with his arms crossed.
From experience already these girls knew by now that the new boys had a different kind of friendship. One in which they would poked fun at each other or make little joking arguments. It just seemed in there nature it felt right to them.
This feeling of fuming anger though felt real, It was totally different from what they had seem between them before. Fluttershy slowly hid herself as she slipped under the table as though taking cover. Pinkie Pie was scarfing down cookies she brought from home but stopped as she began to notice this wasn't a joke and she began to frown. Rainbow Dash and Sunset looked at each other feeling the frustration boiling.
Rarity was filing her nails but slowly stopped in a dramatic way as she noticed as well. Adagio watched as well and she thought to herself how terrible it must feel to actually be that frustrated as someone she was getting used to the joking and now this. Aria and Sonata looked at each other shrugging lost for words then turning to look at Adagio and then at Goldie and Skully.
Then finally Applejack broke the silence. “Look y'all best thing to do you two is when friends argue is to give ya selves some space to cool” Applejack spoke hoping her words would quell the argument.
Rarity nodded in agreement then said, “Exactly darling then you can talk things out” she said smiling then returning to filing her nails.
Though even with those words of advice they fell on deaf ears. Nothing had changed and it was only getting more heated at the table even without a exchange of words between them.
Goldie and Skully's friends were still watching and waiting as well. They knew how this worked and at this point the conversation was a bomb ready to detonate. They have had this moment before, and to them these moments it was best to just say nothing and leave it be. The entire table sat there quietly and watched as Goldie and Skully starred each other down.
Finally Goldie made a growling sound then stood up quickly looking at Skully, “Well I'm not in the mood to deal with you Skully I'm out here”.
Skully looked Goldie dead in the face “Whatever Goldie”, he said with a grunt.
Goldie proceeded out of the cafeteria with everyone watching and Adagio frowning at the fact. Skully gritted his teeth and looked even more frustrated than before.
“Hey Skully you OK dude?”, Gnome said concerned.
His friends looked at him not because they were mad but purely out of being worried. Skully groaned and got up and began to walk out the cafeteria too, not saying a word. Gnome looked as he was about to say something to get his attention but decided to catch himself and stop.
Dahblunt let out a long sigh and Umbro shook his head while covering his face with one hand.
“Well that went well”, Umbro said with a groan.
“Just give it some time they will bounce back as usual”, Dahblunt said looking as his food on his tray. He moved it around with his fork but didn't bother to eat anymore this argument was getting to him too.
As the Girls looked at the group of boys their behavior resembled as though the world was falling apart and today was the last day of existence. They sat there quietly till Sonata spoke up.
“Is this a usual problem between them they looked really mad”, Sonata said tapping her finger on her chin.
“Well they butt heads a lot, I was just hoping it wouldn't happen here”, Gnome said to Sonata.
“Ha butt that's funny”, Umbro said smiling looking at Gnome who rolled his eyes.
“Best thing we can do is go to class and hope they calm down, you know just as well Gnome they will bounce back from this it happens all the time”, Dahblunt he said as he looked at his friends.
Gnome and Umbro nodded in agreement. They knew this was true it would take a lot more than a petty argument to crush their group.
Aria looked at Adagio with grin, “almost reminds me of you and me Adagio”.
Adagio looked back at Aria with menacing grin in return, “Ah yes but I remember always winning the argument”.
“Whatever Adagio”, Aria said rolling her eyes but smiling a little.
Sonata smiled too at the fact they were in a way getting along. Something she thought she would never see. She was going tell them how happy she was till she quickly noticed Gnome was tapping his head with his finger in a sort of frustrated manner.
“You alright Gnome” Sonata said looking at him.
Gnome looked up, “Yeah I just feel like I forgot to tell Goldie something”.
Gnome then looked at Sonata with a raised brow. He noticing that she was pointing at the brown rice on Gnomes tray he didn’t touch. She was looking him with a blank face but almost looked like she was going to breakout into a sweat.
“You gonna finish that?”, Sonata said as she stared even harder.
Gnome looked at Aria and Adagio who were both covering their faces in embarrassment by Sonata’s question. He then looked back at Sonata who hadn't moved a inch and was still waiting for a answer. Gnome looked at his tray then back at Sonata, “Uh sure go ahead you can have it”, Gnome said confused wondering why this was a bid deal.
Sonata’s eyes widened and her smile grew huge, “Wait for realzies?”, she said excited.
Gnome now looked at Umbro who just shrugged at him and at Dahblunt who shook his head smiling.
“Yeah go head”, Gnome said pushing his tray to Sonata.
Sonata squeaked with excitement as she began to eat. All the girls laughed at this.
Only a few moments later lunch ended and everyone went to the respected classes to which they were scheduled. Sunset and Applejack were in math class together along with Dahblunt. They were doing a timed quiz and Sunset was trying to quicken her finishing time. She almost always finished first. When she finally finished she smiled and got up from her seat. She stopped in awe though when she realized that Dahblunt was already walking back from turning in his test.
Sunset bit her lip frustrated even after all she had been through there was a part of her still wanted to over achieve over other students. She walked up to the teacher dropping off her test and walked back to her seat.
Dahblunt sat in his seat patiently waiting for others to finish.
Sunset then tapped him on the shoulder.
Dahblunt looked over to Sunset, “What's up?”.
“Sorry was just surprised you finished so quickly”, Sunset said smiling.
Dahblunt looked at Sunset as he stretched out his back, “Like I tell everyone education is important, you can't say you know something unless you learned about it at some point”.
“Pretty much life is a educational experience”, Sunset smiled.
Dahblunt gave Sunset the thumbs up, “That's exactly right”.
After classes ended Sunset proceeded to gather her belongings from her locker as she closed it she realized Adagio was standing next to her. Sunset was going to ask how her day went but she realized she looked troubled.
“You OK Adagio, something on your mind?”, Sunset asked.
Adagio sighed before speaking, “It was about lunch today no one has seen Goldie or Skully since then”.
Sunset smiled coyly, “I've been watching you Adagio I know exactly which one your more concerned about”.
Adagio's face went bright red and she looked mad but within seconds she's cooled down.
“Look Sunset even though we're friends now doesn't mean you know what I look for in relationship”, Adagio flicked her some of her hair out of her face.
“Who said anything about relationships?”, Sunset said putting her things in her bag then throwing it over her shoulder.
Adagio face turned bright red again. As this happened Aria and Sonata walked up to them with their bags as well.
Adagio’s grew red again but she was speechless she didn’t know what to say. As this was going on Aria and Sonata walked up to them with their bags as well. Sonata was smiling so brightly it looked like she almost couldn't contain how happy she was. Aria looked at Adagio for a bit as though she was inspecting her till finally.
“Adagio why are you blushing it’s kinda weird”, Aria said with arms crossed and a raised eyebrow.
Adagio faced Aria with finger in her face, “No body is blushing Aria just leave it”.
As she said this Sonata perked up. “Oh are we telling secrets I love secrets”, Sonata said almost bouncing up and down.
Adagio covered her face and spoke through them muffled. “No one is telling secrets just stop”.
Sunset saw the rest of her friends, Umbro, Gnome and Dahblunt making there way down the hallway she waved her arms to get their attention. Umbro was discussing video recording with Dahblunt who was doing his best to explain the processes so Umbro would get it done properly with no errors. The rest of the girls walked next to them listening intently as they discussed what things Umbro needed. Gnome on the other hand was scrolling through his phone quickly.
“So I guess we are all here sleepover at my place again?”, Pinkie said happily as the girls smiled and began talking about what they wanted to do, but then Pinkie turned to the boys.
“Sorry guys it’s girls thing can’t have you guys over”, Pinkie said smiling awkwardly thinking she might have offended them for some reason.
Umbro and Gnome stopped and looked at each other then laughed super loud almost to the point Gnome almost fell over knocking over Umbro. Dahblunt was doing his best not laugh he cleared his throat then said, “Yeah we would have figured that plus some of us got work to do”.
Gnome and Umbro finally pulled themselves together. “Anyone seen Goldie or Skully yet?”, Umbro asked looking amongst the group.
Everyone shook their head no. “Well I’m sure everything's all right darling I'm quite sure they didn't just leave campus”.
Everyone began to head to the school entrance but Sunset grabbed Adagio then saying, “We will catch up with everyone in a second”.
They group finally made it out the main doors and walked down the steps till Dahblunt stopped dead in his tracks and with his thumb he pointing in the direction of the Canterlot Hight School yard statue. Everyone let out a long sigh of relief as they saw standing next to the statue Goldie and Skully with their bags talking and laughing. Sunset and Adagio came through door entrance as well and saw them too. As they walked up to them Dahblunt turned his head to the group smiling.
“I told you just needed some time to let it blow over”, Dahblunt said walking up to Skully and Goldie.
Both of them saw the group of guys and girls coming towards them. “Sup everyone”, Goldie said looking at his friends then the girls.
“Seems to me like ya’ll both got over your little quarrel pretty nicely”, Applejack said tipping her hat to them.
Everything was good now as it should be everyone was smiling and laughing. Sunset then walked up to Adagio to stand next to her and then elbowed her in the side. Adagio didn’t really think it hurt but she rubbed her side then looked at Sunset with a frown. Sunset jerked her head in Goldie’s direction secretly signaling Adagio. Adagio winced for a second then took and deep breath. She then proceeded up to where she could get Goldie’s attention.
“So Goldie I was wondering”, Adagio was twirling a piece her hair around with her finger. Goldie looked at Adagio only responding with, “Yeah?”.
Adagio was now trying to put on her tough girl act for some reason like when they first met Sunset. “You know if your or not to busy this weekend I was thinking maybe”, before Adagio could even finish like a gust of wind a kid they didn’t recognize came from behind the statue and with almost full force punched Goldie in the shoulder.
Goldie stumbled a little bit but caught himself before falling everyone watched as Goldie got up to swing back but stopped suddenly then out of no we’re broke into laughter. His friends began laughing to the girls though were rolling in confusion. They looked at the boy who hit Goldie he had very short black hair was wearing somewhat loose jeans with a chain.near the pocket. His short sleeve button down shirt was dark red with one white stripe in the middle. A logo was embroidered on his shirt of a Gas mask with a red “T” in the middle.
Goldie fist bumped the kid and patted him on the shoulder, “What the heck took you so long Tucker”.
Gnome snapped his fingers, “That’s what I forgot to tell Goldie, Tucker was getting back today” he said smiling now sure of himself.
Tucker looked at the group of girls who were now staring at him in confusion and awe before he finally said looking at Goldie, “So uh what did I miss”.
