Fluttershy halfway flooded her cottage with tears, she had broken the record for who could cry the longest in ponyville, she had actually cried for a FULL twenty-two hours, it had been a day since she was finally going to confess her love for Discord, but as she went to Canterlot, she saw him tell Celestia "I love you" while holding a bouquet of Roses.

"I've should have known" she thought "Why would he want a stupid, wimpy, dumb, ugly, unwanted pegasus like her?It would only make sense that he would want Celestia, a powerful and beautiful alicorn princess" she had processed this in her mind hours ago, but her heart refused to believe it.

"I wish I was gone from his life forever" she thought, suddenly the windows opened due to the strong wind and blew out her candles, Fluttershy, walking through her pool of tears, closed them and turned around, but once she did, she let out a scream.
---------------------------------------------------------
Discord sobbed on a table, he lost the love of his life, he had chosen Celestia when he should have chosen Fluttershy, now she would never love him, he looked at the picture of him and her, he sighed.Then he stood up, he cried long enough, he will go and apologize, even if she won't love him, they could still be friends, he then decided to sleep, crying really took the energy out of him.
-----------------------------------
Rarity opened the door to Fluttershy's cottage

"Greetings dear, I'm sorry to barge in like this but I just HAD to-" she began when she let out a gasp, then a scream, alerting her friends.
-----------------------------------------
Discord appeared at Fluttershy door, nervous, he then knocked on the door, to his surprise, it was Rainbow Dash, not only that, but she had tears in her eyes

"What do YOU want?" she asked in a shaky voice

"I-Is Fluttershy home?" he asked

Rainbow bit her lip, then she said

"No"

"Oh,.....well would you be ever so KIND to tell me where she is?"

".......Gone" she whispered

"You mean she moved away?" he asked frantically

"Nope,.......worse" rainbow then opened the door as far as it would go, he saw a sight terrifying enough to give a pony nightmares, surrounded by her friends, Fluttershy was on the ground, she wasn't bleeding, but she wasn't breathing.............she was dead.

"FLUTTERSHY!!!" cried Discord, he ran over to her, he shoved the ponies aside, but they were too sad to even care, Discord looked down at the late pegasus, he cradled her head in his arms, her face expression was calm, it looked as though she was just asleep, he felt the tears develop in his eyes yet again, he gently held her body against his chest, she was gone, these three words echoed in his mind.

"............Fluttershy" he uttered softly he felt a series of hooves on his back

"H-How did this happen?" he asked unable to hold his tears

Twilight held out a bottle, it was labeled poison

"We only found two clues to what happened, this was one of them"

"W-,......W-What was the other?"

Applejack showed him two sets of hoofprints, only one of them was found on the bottle, but it didn't match Fluttershy's, Discord then knew,....someone had poisoned her.

"WHYYYYYYYYYY???!!!" sobbed a dark pink pony with flat hair in the corner, Discord then recognized her as Pinkie Pie.

Discords heart was a lot like a promise, it if was broken, it could never be fixed, he knew what could fix it, but it was impossible.

Fluttershy opened her eyes, she looked around it was dark,......too dark for her liking, she cowered.Then she saw a blue light and a silhouette walking towards her. then she saw who this figure was

"P-PRINCESS LUNA" she exclaimed

"Hello Fluttershy"

"W-Where are we?A-Am I dead?"

"That is up to you"

"W-What?"

Luna chuckled "Which do you want to hear first, the explanation, or why you are here?"

Fluttershy pondered to herself for a moment then she answered "Why am I here please"

"Well," said Luna "You made a wish that you could no longer be with Discord, so a demon came from Tartarus and poisoned you, but luckily, he's gone, and I made sure that he will never come back, you are in the realm between heaven, and the land of the living."

Fluttershy nodded, the princess continued.

"it was lucky that the gods of death owed me a favor, so I asked them to give you a decision, do you wish to return back to the land of the living, or do you wish to go to heaven?"

Fluttershy thought for a few minutes, then she whimpered

"I can't decide, I don't want to die, but I don't want to be on earth if Discord doesn't want me"

Luna raised an eyebrow in confusion

"What in the name of Estrellas are you talking about?"

"Didn't you hear? Discord is in love with your sister,.....and not with me

for a long time Luna said nothing then she whispered "She said no"

"W-What?" asked Fluttershy confused

"My sister did not return his feelings, he liked both of you, but he only loved one, he thought it was Celestia, but the day he saw you run out of that corridor, he knew it then, that it was YOU he loved"

"I don't know if I can believe that," said Fluttershy lowering her head, Luna thought for a bit, then she smiled and put a hoof under Fluttershy chin

"Then let me show you"

Lunas horn lit up and the next thing Fluttershy knew she was inside her cottage, but her body was there,......and Discord had it in his arms he was crying, her friends couldn't hear what he thought, but Fluttershy heard it loud and clear

"Fluttershy,.....I'm so Sorry, I should have chosen you, but now it's too late, I've lived a thousand years away from the past, but without you,......I have no future,......You're my everything, I love you,...but you probably don't love me,.....I hope that whoever you find up there, will love you just as much as I do"

then out of nowhere, music started, then with the girls looking Discord began to sang out loud

"You hear it every day
Once upon a time they say
Once upon a time in this place
I looked and saw on your face
A smile that spoke to me
In oh so many ways"

the girl's jaws dropped, did he,.... on Fluttershy?

"The Sunday morning bells
Rang out that all was well
Sunshine across the yard
We’d rest when we worked hard
We take a little time off
To appreciate the day.

he ran his claw softly through her hair, it was still softer than he ever thought it to be

"And love builds a garden
Grew it from the ground up
Each one of us knowing
Every inch of it was us
We pulled it all together
Hoping and believing
That love built this garden
For the two of us to dream in."

Fluttershy's eyes widened, he was singing about her,...and him, and love.

"We’d get a little rain
Then the sun came out again
But a frost it’s hard to fight
Once it takes hold flowers die
There’s only so much you can do
To keep some things alive.
And love builds a garden
Grew it from the ground up
Each one of us knowing
Every inch of it was us
We pulled it all together
Hoping and believing
That love built this garden
For the two of us to dream in."

he gazed down at her face, wishing he could see her teal eyes.

"Sad to say, it’s true
Without a lover who
Cares as much
Well I guess, I guess it goes to prove"

Discord felt the tears race down his face, the others looked at him,.....they felt bad for him, even Rainbow, and she was mad at him.

"That love built a garden
Growed it from the ground up
Each one of you knowing
Every inch of it is trust
Pulled it all together
Hoping and believing
That love builds a garden
For the two of you to dream in"

he hugged her lifeless body as the music stopped

Fluttershy felt tears run down her cheeks,.....he DID love her,....maybe it wasn't too late suddenly Luna walked up beside her

"Now then please tell me, do you wish to go to heaven, or do you wish to live?"

Fluttershy looked up, then she looked at Discord, she smiled at Luna, she had made her decision.
---------------------------------
Discord looked at her, he hugged her tighter

"I love you,..." he whispered

a few seconds of silence passed

"Discord, Since when do you ever do or Say something important?" asked a soft voice teasingly

Discord's eyes widened, he looked at her face, her teal eyes were shining up at him with joy, he gasped

"FLUTTERSHY, YOUR ALIVE" he shouted with joy, he picked her up by the waist and hugged her tighter, Fluttershy happily did the same, eventually he set her down, as soon as he did, she ran over to her friends and gave them all hugs, Pinkies mane turned back to normal, Discord used his tail to snap them all away, except for Fluttershy, she narrowed her eyes

"Discord you shouldn't-" but Fluttershy was interrupted, Discord picked her up by the waist and pressed his lips against hers, longingly, and needingly, Fluttershy couldn't help but give in, after a while, Fluttershy broke the kiss

"I know you want to be with your friends, but please can't you stay just a LITTLE bit longer" he begged

Fluttershy giggled,

"Alright," she answered, she rested her head against his chest, which he lovingly accepted.
