Lyra/Bon Fic - Mint Chocolate (part 2)

>"This is Mr. Elite and King Konverse on 102.6 jamz. It's 7 AM this Friday, and it's starting to get a little chilly today, don't you think, King?
>Winter's almost here, man. It's g-
>Your hand, after a few misses, smacks the snooze button and you peek your head from under the covers
>A thin beam of sunlight peeks through the curtain and hits you square in the eye
>As you turn away from it and closed your eyes again, there's a knock at the door
"Come in. It's not locked"
>"You're not gonna lay in bed all day are you?
>Great. LYRA is the first person you talk to today...
"All day? It's 7!"
>"What's your point? Me and Bonnie were up an hour ago."
"It's your JOB to be up early. Give me a break, I'm still getting used to this place."
>"Even if it wasn't, I wouldn't be laying around like some slouch and-"
"IT'S 7 O'CLOCK!"
>"And you've been here for 2 weeks already, you're plenty familiar with the place. Now get up and come downstairs. Breakfast is ready. I made waffles."
>With that, she turns quickly and walks back to the door from your position on your bed, you catch a glimpse of her panties
>She faces you once more and speaks
>"If you're not down in 5 minutes, I'm throwing out your food
"Whatever you say... Polka-dots"
>A look of confusion flashes onto her face that quickly changes to embarrassment
>"You...you... AGH!
>You break out into a grin as you hear her stomping down the hallway
>Well that's enough laying around, you figure. You throw on a button up shirt and some khakis and head to the dining room downstairs.




As you round a corner, you hear a female voice humming a song.
You peek your head around the corner, and it's none other than Bonnie sweeping the foyer. Her back is towards you.
>A smirk comes across your face and you decide to give her a little start.
>You slowly creep up behind Bonnie and reach out and grab her hips.
"Boo!"
>"AHH! THAT'S MY PURSE! I DON'T KNOW YOU!"
>Instead of a typical reaction, she jumps forward and swings the broom she was holding behind her.
>You don't even see the improvised weapon coming until it's going across your face.
>Down you go.
>"Huh? ANON! Oh, I'm so so SO sorry! I didn't mean it! HONEST!"
>Bonnie rushes to your side and helps you into a sitting position. She places your head in her bosom and gives your forehead a couple kisses.
>"You really shouldn't sneak up on me, Anon!. I've had some... bad experiences with that."
>When the room finally stops spinning, you look up at Bonnie and wipe the tears forming at her eyes.
"It's fine, Bonnie. I probably shouldn't have snuck up on you like that."
>"Let's get you some ice for that bump".
>Bonnie helps you to your feet and with her help, you walk to the kitchen.




>"I'm so sorry, Anon."
"For the last time, Bonnie. It's fine. It was an accident and accidents happen."
>You sit in the kitchen holding a bag of ice to your temple. Bonnie has been apologizing for the past 5 minutes now. It's cute if not a little annoying.
>"Anon, I heard your voice. Where are you?
You hear Lyra's voice ring out so you answer back
"The kitchen!"
>The door then bursts open.
>"Anon, what the hell? I tell you to come to breakfast and I walk back into the dining room and the meal I slaved over is damn near cold! Why didn't-
>It took Lyra a second to process what she saw
>"So uhh... anyone gonna tell me what happened here?
>You and Bonnie glance at each other then back at Lyra
>"Nothing." You both answer simultaneously
>Lyra eyes you suspiciously "So why do you have an icepack on your head?"
"It's uhh... the newest trend?"
>You don't think she's buying it.
>"I'm not buying it. When you want to tell me what ACTUALLY happened, I'm all ears.
>Lyra turns and walks back out the door she came through but pokes her head back in.
>"Oh yeah. I hope you're happy with cereal for breakfast." With that, her head disappears from the doorway.
"What? What happened to my waffles?
>It's muffled by the door, but you make out the words "I ate them" in a mocking fashion.
*sigh*




After your 'breakfast', you decide to go for a walk.
>The town's too far, but you remember passing a trail when you go on your morning jog.
>Lyra said the place was called... Whitetail Woods or something.
>It looks pretty peaceful. Why not?
>After about ten minutes of walking, you come across a small stream
>With a little effort, you cross it without falling in
>You notice a fallen tree in your path, so you decide to have a seat and just take in the beauty of these woods.
"I have to thank Lyra for mentioning this place when I get back"
>You're then acutely aware of growling behind you.
>You quickly turn around and jump up when you spot an angry grizzly bear
"...If I make it back."
>Immediately, you look around for an escape route and notice what probably got you in this situation.
>A bear den. You'd miss it if you weren't looking for it. It's probably a mother protecting her cubs.
>You turn back to face the bear and back up slowly as you try and find a way out of this situation. What to do? You could-
>Your thoughts are cut short when roars and walks closer.
>PANIC
>What do they say to do when attacked by a bear? Make yourself look bigger right?
>You put your arms over your head and start yelling hoping to scare it away.
>It apparently doesn't work as the bear gets closer, stands up and raises it's paw at you.
'Is this it? Am I gonna die? I never got to live life. I never found love. I never got to eat those waffles!
>"STOOOOP!!"




>Both you and the bear freeze and look behind you.
>You can see the silhouette of a woman standing on a hill
>"Bosco, stop it! What would your mother growl if she saw you attacking innocent people?"
>To your surprise, the bear actually backs down and seems... ASHAMED?
>You're currently watching a girl scold a grizzly bear... the bear finished the job, didn't he?
>She begins walking closer to both of you and you can now take in her appearance
>She's small, almost frail-looking. Long pink hair A yellow cashmere sweater and long pink skirt that ended in yellow butterflies. A gold tennis bracelet adorned her slim wrist. Attached to her waist looks what appears to be a survival kit.
>"Now go home, Bosco! Your brothers are waiting. I'll be over to check on you soon, ok?"
>The bear, Bosco, slowly turns around and heads to the den across the clearing and disappears from sight.
>You glance back to her face and she's has a frown not unlike a parent's disciplining a child until she turns to face you and it transforms into a demure smile.
>"I'm sorry. He's actually a very nice bear. I'm sure he attacked you because you were close to his family home. You're not hurt are you?"
>As soon as the threat of imminent death wasn't looming over your head, you gathered your thoughts and spoke clearly.
"N-no, F-f-f-fine."
>Sort of.




"...
>"...
>You both realize you were staring at each other and you both turn away
*Ahem* "So, uh, what's my hero's name?"
>She's stutters and a blush appears on her face.
>"Hero? Wha- No! I was just passing by and saw that you need help. I-"
>She trails off and looks at the floor.
"That really sounds like a hero to me."
>She opens her mouth again to protest but simply smiles shyly.
>*mumble*
"Huh?"
>"po-*mumble* but m- *mumble*"
"What? You're speaking too low."
>"P-Posey. My n-name is Posey. My friends c-call me Fluttershy."
"Fluttershy, huh? Yeah, I get it."
>"Get what?"
"Nevermind. So, what were you doing all the way out here?"
>"Oh, I, um, I l-live here. My house is past those trees over there."
>She points and you can see what looks like a cottage through the trees.
"Your house? You live out here?"
