> Will You Be My Valentine? > by ShadyAwesomeness > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Perfect Gift > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was another beautiful day in Canterlot high as the students walk along the halls into their classes. Well..... almost everyone. Button Mash stood in front off his locker with his head down looking a bit depressed. Tomorrow is Valentines Day and he has no idea what to do. Ever since last week, almost all of his friends were going crazy on choosing who should they ask out. A number of people like his best friend Rumble just asked Scootaloo to be his Valentine with she happily accepted. And his other best friend Shady Blaze who just recently asked Apple Bloom to be his Valentine which she also happily said yes. It's kinda weird considering the fact that both them and the girls have been wanting to admit their feelings to each other. But as for Button, he finds it somewhat cute. Almost all of his friends are just spending their time finding and asking girls which he thinks it's a waste of time. He would usually spend his Valentines staying home and playing with his video games. But all that changed when he first meet Sweetie Belle. Ever since he was transferred to CHS about year ago, she was like to first person to talk to him. Over time, the two have been really close and would usually hang out almost everyday. He could remember that whenever they are close to each other, he could see her blushing and always thought it was cute. But on that day on, he started to realize to he was starting to develop feelings for her. It's no wonder that she was top of one of his bestest friends. But he ever doubt that he could admit his feelings to her. Not even his friends knows his secret. As soon as Button got his textbooks out of his locker, he then hears Shady Blaze calling him. "Yo Button, over here." he called out. Button then started to walk towards him with a big frown on his face. "Hey Shady." he mumbled out. It was so obvious for Shady to see that Button had a really sad look on his face. "Button, what's the matter." he asked worriedly. He knows that if he tells him he would think that he would start making fun at him. "Nothing, just a lot of things going on." he said. Shady knows that he wasn't fooling him and that it was pretty obvious that he was lying. "Button, I know that your lying, whatever that's bothering you, you can just tell me." he said. He was a bit hesitant on telling him the truth. But then again, he is his best friend. So he knows that maybe he will understand. "It's just, everyone's busy finding dates and girls for Valentine's Day and it's just really bumming me out." said Button. He then looked up to see Shady with a big smile on his face. "Ohhh I see." he said. "Your having trouble finding a girl to be your Valentine huh." "Well that to but, you see, there's this girl I know and I've been wanting to ask her for awhile now and I just don't know what say or do." It was pretty obvious for Shady to know who Button was talking about. "Let me guess, is Sweetie Belle isn't it?" he asked. Button then shot his head up like if an explosion was heard. "Ho-how did know?" he asked. "Come on Button, it's pretty obvious that you and Sweetie Belle hang out like all the time." He was pretty shocked to know that he knows that he has a crush on Sweetie Belle. But then again, he does have good point that they usually hang out all the time. "Yes it's true but I just don't know what to do."he said with a worry look on his face. "I really want her to be my Valentine and all, but I just don't know what to do." He then could feel the hands of Shady Blaze touching his shoulders. "Dude calm down, you don't have to do this alone." he said. "Well then, what can I do?" Button asked. "Listen, first I want you to chill out, second, you don't have tell her just yet." Shady explained. "What I would suggest is that why not go to the store and pick something out for her, and by that I don't mean buy her a big pack of chocolates for her, just something small and simple but that represents on how you feel about her." Button wasn't so sure about this. He really wants to ask Sweetie Belle to be his Valentine. Not just that, but asking her to be his girlfriend. Okay, maybe that's a little bit to far. But then again, he really wants to tell her. "Ughh what choice do I have but then again, maybe it's not so bad."he thought for himself. He then looked up at Shady Blaze who was waiting patiently for his answer. "You know what Shady, your right." said Button as he smiled. "Now that's the spirit." he said patting his back smiling at him. Just then, the school bell rang signaling for all the students to get to their classes. "Well I gotta get to class but just remember what said alright." said Shady Blaze. "Of course dude." said Button. "Alright man, see you later." With that said, he started walking towards Ms. Cheerilee's class. As Button watched his best friend walking towards his class, Button thought that maybe his idea wasn't so bad. He knows that if could a least give it a try, maybe Sweetie Belle will say yes to him for sure. He then started walking towards his towards his class. ***** Hours later the school finally came to an end as everyone made their way home. Button made his way down the road to the store to pick up a gift for Sweetie Belle. He wasn't sure what to buy for her, but remembered what Shady told him. As he was walking, he then spotted Rumble down the road with a soccer ball on his arms. "Hey Rumble!" Button called out. Rumble looked up and smiled as he sees his best friend. "Oh hey Button, what's up!" he called back. Both guys came to each other and fist bump each other. "Where are you going?" asked Rumble. As much as he wants to tell him where he's going, Button thought that he would make fun of him. But he remembered that he talked to Shady about his problem. "Uhh, I'm just, going to to store." he said. "Oh the store huh, your gonna buy something?" asked Rumble. He then notice Button with a, yet another frown look on his face. Before he could ask him what's wrong, Button spoke up. "Uh listen I uh, need to get going alright, I'll see you tomorrow." he said. He then ran all the way down the road leaving Rumble confused. As he made his way into the store, Button thought on what might be the perfect gift Sweetie Belle would love. A box of chocolates, nah, to cheap. A stuffed teddy bear with a heart around it saying, "Will You Be My Valentine"or "I Love You", no way! That's a bit to far there. He doesn't want her to know yet? He started to think that maybe this was all a bad idea. After all, she isn't worth it to him. Is he? He sighed softly and remember the first time when they first met. He remembered how he introduced to himself to Sweetie Belle and shook hands with her. He could even remember that blush that formed in her cheeks. The times they would head over to Button's house playing Minecraft and Call of Duty. Wait a second- that's it! Button then started to make his way down the aisle and soon made his way to shelve that contain a bunch of Valentine yet video game look like items. Button searched for the one that he saw a few day ago. Finally, he spotted the perfect gift for Sweetie Belle. "I just hope she'll love this." he said to himself ***** The next day, Button made his way the hallway in CHS to find Rumble and Shady. As he was walking along the hallway, he spotted ton of students either giving each other their gifts or kissing. As much as he really wants to gag, he thought it was somewhat cute since it's Valentine day. Finally he spotted both of his best friends down by there locker along with Apple Bloom and Scootaloo. "Hey guys!" he called. "Oh hey Button." Rumble called back. As he made his way to his friends, he suddenly sees Shady and Apple Bloom holding hands. "Uh, are you guys- you know...," said Button thinking that maybe they are together. "As a matter of fact, we are." said Shady smiling. He then leaned closer to Apple Bloom's face by planting a small kiss on her cheek. Apple Bloom blushed brightly as Rumble and Scootaloo giggled. "What about you guys? Button asked Rumble. He and Scootaloo stared at each other with blushes on their cheeks. Before could say anything, Scootaloo grabbed him by the shoulders and kissed him passionately on the lips. Rumble stood in shock as he felt the softness of her lips touching his. Both Shady and Button had their mouths wide open in shock while Apple Bloom smiled at the two. Once they pulled away, both were blushing brightly red as they turned there heads to their friends who still were in shocked of Scootaloo's action. "Now we are." said Scootaloo smiling. She then reached out for Rumble's hand who then blushed. "Wow congrats you guys." said Button as he smiles at the new couples. Before any of them could thank him, Button then remembered something. "By the way, have any of you guys seen Sweetie Belle?" he asked. Shady then raised an eyebrow and smiled remembering the talk the they both had yesterday. "Uhh no, haven't seen her since we came this morning." said Scootaloo. "I could've sworn ah saw her with Rarity earlier." Apple Bloom concluded. "From the look on her face, ah don't think she looks okay." "Oh no, I hope she's okay!" Button thought. "Button, are ya alright?" Apple Bloom asked a she noticed Button's concerned eyes. "Uhh I, yeah, I'm alright, just uhh- gotta go bye!". He then dashed out running down the hallway leaving his friends confused except for Shady who smiled as he watches his friend running down the hallway. "You can do this Button, I know you can." he thought for himself. ***** A few hours later, students were then released for lunch. Both Shady and Rumble with their girlfriends. Then Scootaloo started to realize that Sweetie Belle wasn't there with them. "Hey, have any of you guys seen Sweetie Belle?" she asked. Shady then started to look around and sees if she was around but sees nothing but students grabbing their food and sitting down talking. "No, have you girls seen Button anywhere?" asked Rumble. They all started to notice that neither of their friends are nowhere in sight. "Ah wonder where their are." said Apple Bloom. ***** Outside in the CHS statue, Button looked around to see if Sweetie Belle was anywhere. He began to worry as if he thinks that he'll never find her. "Aw man where is she?" he said to himself. "I could've sworn I saw her in second period.& Suddenly, he spotted her walking along the trail to a nearby tree. He then noticed a sad look on her face. Worried if something bad happened, Button started walking his to her. Once he got to the tree, he could see Sweetie Belle with her head and tears leaking down at her eyes. "Uh Sweetie Belle, what's wrong, are you okay?" he said as he sat next to her. Raising her head up, Sweetie Belle smiled as she sees her friend next to her. Her green eyes looked towadly into his brown eyes. Wiping her tears away, she spoke up. "Hey Button, uh yeah, I'm okay." she says as she moves her head around avoiding looking Button in the eyes again. Now Button was starting to become more worried. Did something bad happened to her, was she hurt, sad, depressed or bullied again. Button could remember clearly on what happened to Sweetie Belle a few weeks back. Diamond Tiara was mockingly and harassing her by making fun at her looks while pushing her to the ground. Her best friend Silver Spoon tried to make her stop, but was shoved down by her. Even Apple Bloom and Scootaloo tried to help Sweetie Belle, but was also pushed down to the ground. Witnessing the horrible sight that Button was seeing, he furiously charged at the rich spoiled brat and pushed her away from Sweetie Belle delivering a punch into her face. From that day on, everyone was in shocked of seeing him this really messed up, even Shady Blaze and Rumble thought he was insane, but were proud of him to help Sweetie Belle. She even thanked him for saving him and give him the biggest hug anyone could ask for. Not only that, but she also thanked him by planting a small kiss in his cheeks, surprising him. He was so surprised that he didn't even expected that, but was glad to her alright. Snapping himself out from that memory, Button then looked over at Sweetie Belle who had her head still down. "Sweetie Belle, tell me what's wrong." he said softly by placing his hand over to her shoulder. Surprised by the his touch, Sweetie Belle then turned her head to see Button who is smiling at her softly. She was happy to know that someone was there to comfort her. She didn't want to tell him why she was crying, but felt like she had to tell him. "It's just, earlier this morning, Diamond Tiara came up to me and started calling me names like stupid, ugly, fat, retarded, and that no one will ask me to be their Valentine." she said as more tears began to fall down cheeks again and begins to cry quietly. When those words came out of her mouth, Button did his best to not even scream or anything violent. As much as he really wants to go and find Diamond Tiara just so he could start beating the living crap out her, he realizes that he'll only get himself into even more trouble. He knows that Sweetie Belle needs him, so is best off if he stays with her to comfort her. He then grabbed Sweetie Belle by the waist and pulled her into a warm hug. She cried to herself for a moment before hugging him back tightly. "It's alright Sweetie Belle, don't listen to what Diamond a Tiara says about you." he said as he rubs her back gently. A huge blush came across as she felt to softness of his body embracing her with a loving and caring hug. "He's hugging me, oh my Celestia!" she thought for herself. She gently pushed him away and stared at the ground for a minute before looking up at him. "It's just, ever since I saw my friends going out with your friends, I've felt so lonely now today is Valentine's Day." she says as she wipes her tears away. "And ever since Diamond Tiara started to make fun of me on how no one will ever ask me to be their Valentine, I've been feeling so depressed." Button felt so sorry for what Sweetie Belle has been going through. He could picture why, but then again, he does like her. He then grabs Sweetie Belle hand and begins to stroke it gently with his hand. Another wave of blush appeared on her cheeks as he stares at him. "Sweetie Belle, about what your going through, there's something I want to tell you." said Button as he looks into Sweetie Belle's eyes. "What is it?" she asks. Buttons heart began to pump fast, he felt that it might explode. He had to tell her how he feels about her, and now. " You've told me that you've been sad for thinking no one will ever ask you out on Valentine's Day." he said. Sweetie Belle then nodded at his response and waited to see what he meant by that. "I uhh, I- I li-like-y-you." he says in a quiet tone, but loud enough for her to hear him. He then shut his eyes not wanting to see her reaction. Before he could open his eyes open, he felt his lips being touched by some else's lips. When he opened his, he was shocked to see Sweetie Belle kissing him on the lips. His heart was racing so fast he began to start sweating. But soon closed his eyes slowly and kissed her back. He then put his hands around her waist pulling her closer deepening the kiss. Sweetie Belle then wrapped her arms around his neck. Feeling the sweetness taste of his friends soft lips, Button was feeling excited on the inside of his chest. They both pulled away gasping for air before Sweetie Belle pulling him into a hug. "I like you too Button." she said as she smiled at him. He smiled back but then only to remember why he was looking for her. He reached into his pocket and pulled a shining necklaces that had a silver diamond around it. It was similar to the diamonds that finds in Minecraft. He puts it around her neck before smiling at her. "Oh Button, it's beautiful." she says softly as she looks up at Button. She then leaned forward by planting a kiss on his lips. He smiles at her before kissing her back as he gently takes her hands to his. "Sweetie Belle, can I ask you something?" he asks. "Yeah?" she says softly. Feeling so nervous on her telling her this, Button knew it was now or never. "Will you be my Valentine?" he asks his face all red. Sweetie Belle could only smile at him before kissing him on his cheeks. "Oh Button, of course love to be your Valentine." she says smiling at him. Button then smiled before pulling her into a hug. She hugged him back feeling the softness of his body touching her. "Button, can I ask you something?" she asks. Not wanting the hug or end, Button then moved his face in front of Sweetie Belle's face looking into her eyes. "Sure, what is it?" he asks. She looks down at the ground for a moment before facing him. "Will you be my boyfriend?" she asks with her eyes looking directly into his eyes. Before he could say anything he pulled her into another kiss before pulling away. "Of course I love to be your boyfriend." he said smiling at her. They both then hugged each each other never wanting the moment to end. Unknown to them, their friends were watching them by hiding in a nearby bush smiling at the new couple. "I love you Button." "I love you too Sweetie Belle."
