I will never leave you

Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon sat in Diamond Tiara's bedroom, passing the time with a makeover kit when they heard somepony ring the doorbell, the door was answered by the butler who then summoned the two fillies.

"Mistress Tiara, Mistress Spoon, you have two gentlemen callers." At that the two fillies proceeded down the stairs. "Shall I inform your father?" The butler asked with concern.

"Not necessary, these two will only be staying a moment," she replied

"Very well madam," the butler said before promptly leaving the room. Diamond Tiara focused her attention back on the two colts in her foyer.

"Snips, Snails, report." She ordered. The two colts saluted and told of what they saw.

"Button Mash walked Sweetie Belle home," Snails began, "then they just stood in front of the Carousel Boutique talking."

"Talking about what?" Diamond Tiara demanded.

"I don't know, we couldn't hear them." Snips answered for his friend. "But we did see them kiss"

"You did huh, well I guess you two aren't completely useless, okay you're dismissed." Diamond Tiara said while gesturing toward the door with her hoof. Snips and Snails promptly left the house and returned home. "Well this proves they are together," she said pacing back and forth, "we can use this against both of those losers." She continued maliciously, "come Silver Spoon, we have plans to make."

The next day was a Saturday, the weekend, no school. But that didn't mean the CMCs could take a lazy day. Button Mash was on his way to the School play ground where the CMCs were waiting for him, when he was suddenly approached by Snips.

"HEY BUTTON, WAIT UP" Snips yelled as he ran up to Button. "I got a note for you, It's from Sweetie Belle. I don't know what it says, she told me to give it directly to you, she said it was super important," Snips said trying to sound as convincing as possible.

"Uh thanks," Button said, taking the note from Snips.

"See ya," Snips said as he galloped away. Button opened the note and read the contents

"Dear Button Mash. I need you to meet me at Sugar Cube Corner, don't worry about Crusading. Scoots and Apple Bloom know I want to talk to you alone and they are okay with it.
Love Sweetie Belle" with that Button went as quick as he could to Sugar Cube Corner dropping the note in his haste. The note landed with one corner sliding under a rock.
_________________________________________________________________________________________

The CMCs had been waiting for over an hour for Button to show up, all the while Sweetie Belle had been telling her friends about the events of the previous night. When suddenly Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon showed up with Snips and Snails in tow.

"Well well well. If it isn't the Cutie Mark losers," she said in her usual smug condescending tone. "Where's your new member? I guess he got tired of hanging out with you losers"

"You're wrong. He's on his way right now," Sweetie Belle said defiantly.

"Oh, what would you know Squeaky Belle," Diamond Tiara said mockingly, "you're probably the reason he's avoiding you guys now. Did you really think he liked you? You loser." Diamond Tiara said, now beginning to zero in on Sweetie Belle with a malicious grin.

"HE DID! I...I MEAN HE DOES!" She yelled, she could feel a lump beginning to form in her throat as she struggled to hold back tears.

"Yeah, how do you know? Did you ask him before you kissed him?" Diamond Tiara said laughing evilly, every feature of her expression seemed to emanate pure unrestrained malice.

Apple bloom had heard all she cared to hear, she leaned over to Scootaloo "go find Button Mash". She then turned her attention to comforting and defending the now visibly distraught Sweetie Belle as Scootaloo slipped away on her scooter, heading full speed for Button's house.
_________________________________________________________________________________________

Scootaloo arrived at Button's house and knocked frantically on the door calling out for him. Button's mom came to the door as quick as she could to answer the panicked filly.

"Hello dear can I help you?" She said in a friendly concerned tone. Scootaloo answered breathing heavily,

"I need....to....talk to...Button," she said frantically.

"He's not here, he left to go meet some friends two hours ago." Button's mom replied calmly.

"Do you know where he went?" Scootaloo asked still in a panic.

"He said he was going the the school house play ground," Button's mom replied.

"But that's impossible. We were just there, waiting for him for two hours," Scootaloo replied, confused and still panicked.

"I'm sorry dear, that's all I know," Buttons mom replied in an apologetic tone.

"Okay, well thanks anyway," Scootaloo said disappointed.

"Be safe." Buttons mom said cheerfully as she closed the door. Scootaloo got back onto her scooter, she noticed some sudden movement in the bottom corner of her eye as a slight breeze blew by. She reached down to retrieve the abandoned piece of paper and read its contents.

"Love Sweetie Belle? This isn't Sweetie Belle's hoof writing,who wrote this?" Almost immediately after she asked the question the answer hit her, "Diamond Tiara." Scootaloo strapped on her helmet, got back on her scooter and raced full speed to Sugar Cube Corner.

She raced down the streets of Ponyville, houses and store fronts appeared as nothing more than multicolored blurs as she sped past them, going as fast as her wings could propel her. She came to a stop in front of the front doors of Sugar Cube Corner, she ran in, franticly looking for Button Mash, she saw him sitting alone in a both drinking a milkshake

"BUTTON," she yelled as she ran over to him, Button was startled by the sudden intrusion into what was his otherwise silent wait.

"HUH WHAT?...oh, hey Scootaloo, what are you doing here?" Button asked, confused by her appearance

"You need to come to the playground now," she said frantically.

"But I got this note from Sweetie Belle saying to come here" he said before noticing he didn't have the note.

"You mean this note?" Scootaloo said presenting the note to Button Mash. Button took the note and read it.

"Yeah, see, it says to be here," He said.

"Only it's not from Sweetie Belle, that's from Diamond Tiara, she's at the playground right now saying you left us because you don't like her," Scootaloo explained frantically. It was then that Button remembered Diamond Tiara's words after he hit her with the cupcake the other day and sighed in frustrated comprehension. He got up from the booth and approached the counter were Pinkie Pie was putting a fresh batch of cupcakes out for display.

"Pinkie Pie, I'll take a bakers dozen of cupcakes I need to borrow something if that's okay" Button placed a small bag of bits on the counter as Pinkie Pie smiled.

"Okie dokie Loki. What do you need to borrow?" Button smiled as he answered.
_________________________________________________________________________________________

Scootaloo and Button pulled up to the schoolhouse, screeching to a halt. And raced to the playground, Snips and Snails had been ordered by Diamond Tiara to watch out for his arrival. Knowing full well of Scootaloo's departure and of its purpose. The pair approached Button Mash from either side, Button untied the twine securing the box of cupcakes to his back and pulled out a slingshot he had brought from home, he loaded a cupcake into the slingshot and fired at Snips, being that he was closest. The cupcake exploded in his face sending him tumbling over his own hooves. He then loaded another and fired at Snails, the cupcake frosting covered Snails' face blocking his vision causing him to run into a tree. Button retrieved the box of cupcakes and galloped full speed to the playground, he turned the corner of the school house with Scootaloo in tow and saw Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon making fun of Sweetie Belle, causing her to cry uncontrollably.

"KNOCK IT OFF, DIAMOND TIARA," Button Mash yelled as he galloped over to the school yard bully. "Leave her alone she's not the one who embarrassed you at lunch, I am. You can take that up with me, not forge notes to get me to go to Sugar Cube Corner so it looks like I ditched, so Sweetie Belle would break up with me. Yeah your plan was that easy to figure out once I found out the note was fake, you aren't as clever as you think you are, and on top of that you're a coward, you only pick on the ponies too scared or too nice to tell you to back off, and until now that were the Cutie Mark Crusaders, a group of fillies too polite to tell you to kiss their flanks, but now that's changed, they got me now and I tell it like it is, so make your move Madonna," his eyes narrowed into a challenging glare.

"Who do you think you are talking to me like that, you loser. I am the most popular and powerful filly in school. I can ruin your whole life, I can make you a laughing stock of the whole school. I hold all the cards. So why don't you just go back to your video games, you insolent little introvert," Diamond Tiara said. It was obvious from her voice that what Button said had gotten to her.

"Most powerful filly i school? Oh please get over yourself you're a spoiled brat with self esteem issues who can't handle being told no. I mean, look what you brought today two henchponies who don't average half a brain between them, and a yes mare. And you think I'm afraid of you just because you can bully other ponies into picking on me? You may have a fear based position at the top of the popularity ladder, but I don't care, I love Sweetie Belle and I won't let you or anypony else hurt her. if there is one thing video games have taught me its that when the odds are against you, USE MODS," and with that Button grabbed two large frosting tubes from the box of cupcakes, "GG PRINCESS!" Button squeezed both tubes as hard as he could, sending purple and pink frosting flying into the pink filly's face and mane. Diamond Tiara screamed in horror and ran home, Silver Spoon in tow. Button Mash walked over to Sweetie Belle who was still wiping tears from her eyes, "Hey don't listen to her, I will never leave you," he said with a smile. He then opened the box of cupcakes and held it out to her, "cupcake?" Sweetie Belle looked first at the box then at Button Mash and smiled, she lunged forward and kissed Button Mash.
