You gotta kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight.

“Her love is heavenly, when her arms enfold me,/I hear a tender rhapsody; but in reality, she doesn't even know me./It's just my imagination once again, running away with me.” –The Temptations, ‘Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)’

Caramel is working his tail off at Sweet Apple Acres and, of course, having a string of bad luck. However, despite all of his misfortune, a yellow pegasus catches his eye and he is instantly smitten by her. The question is does she notice him, or is it just his imagination?

I like this so far.

These was a normal occurrence for the earth pony and it didn't phase those who worked with him that much, but the increasing number did puzzle them.

This should be changed to

for correct grammar.

D'aww so sweet!
But I don't think Fluttershy stutters that much. It's always really easy to accidentally overdo that, but it's still a good story :twilightsmile:
Wait a second...
This is my first "First comment" comment!
So exciting! :yay:

I BUCKING LOVE THAT SONG!!!!:flutterrage:
Favorite simply for title/description.
Don't have time to read it right now, though.:ajsleepy:

"It's a shame, really. She doesn't even really know me," Caramel gave a sad, defeated sigh as he went to resume his task.

Don't worry I'm sure you'll see her again

So far this is a pretty interesting start of a story and also nice to see the most underrated character let alone background character caramel to have a story anyway looks like he's working today with Applejack at the Apple Farm and he meet a female Pegasus name Fluttershy they had a pretty cute interaction with each other and it was pretty nice of him to offer her an apple but Applejack call him out and needing him to get working because they're way behind and was that he kind of went and unfortunately he didn't even get her name

Well apparently this day is really been difficult for him because he's been having hard time concentrating on his job and it looks like Apple Jacks took notice caramel admitted that he was thinking about Fluttershy's which he didn't know the name until Applejack told him the name and apparently he really is love strong about Fluttershy and Applejack and see that as well I wonder what else he could do if he can fight this kind of feeling

So apparently caramel is still having problems concentrating he even hurt himself a couple of times but when the day have ended he asked Applejack if he can help with Fluttershy to talk with her and how he supposed to approach this Applejack told him that she can be shy but she can be really kind and a lot of people like about her and he even explained how much she told me is beautiful kind and everything from the heart so it looks like Apple Jacks is going to help out but it won't be easy especially when you're dealing with the shyest pony in town

With a sigh, Caramel finally spoke what his heart wanted to say, "Fluttershy, I don't know really how to say it, but I think I might be in love with you."

Whoa ok that's kind of dropping the ball right there

Wow ok then so it looks like caramel is working inside the barn so there won't be any more incidents since it was Apple Jacks idea to give him that so there won't be any more mess up but then in a few minutes later Fluttershy showed up and talking with caramel about some stuff and everything and it looks like things are getting a little bit nice and Fluttershy I was about to walk away but then caramel needed to say something that he was in love with her which again that was really fast for him I wonder what's her reaction

Caramel still couldn’t lift his head up to look at her, “I mean it. I really think that I am in love with you. I know it’s sudden and what not, but I can’t help it. Sorry about that.” The stallion finished his statement and returned to his work.

Outside of the barn, looking in through the open door, Applejack was watching from a hidden location in the bushes. While she couldn’t exactly hear every word that was being spoken, she could piece the puzzle together on her own. A smile on her face, Applejack quietly talked to herself, “Finally it’s over. Ah thought those two would never go through with it. Still stumps me why everypony comes ta me with their problems.”

I'm assuming that Fluttershy ask you for some advice about him as well right Applejack

Well this was certainly a very interesting and kind of cute story and a very rare shipping between Fluttershy and caramel so after a few moments when he said that Fluttershy felt a little flustered but yet like in the feeling that he actually likes her and then he accidentally fell down and Fluttershy was worried that he got hurt but he didn't and she even has him for a date and he accepted it and something tells me this would be a beautiful friendship once again this was a pretty cute story keep up the good work
