valentine's

Being Rarity

>"You know you're mine" Brad says while putting his arm around me
>"How dare you commoner, Rarity can only be by the side of someone such as I, Blueblood. If you want her, you and everyone else will have to go over my dead body"
>"Guys, you won't get anything from violence," says Adam, acting as the voice of reason, maybe he's the one for me "especially because I have superior firepower" he takes a bunch of machines out of his pockets. I take back my previous thoughts
>"Heh, silly Adam, you know nothing about firepower. Tim call the Saints because Rarity is mine" No, Nolan, please not you, you're almost the perfect man!
>"SHE'S MINE" the big blue guy punches Nolan's face
>As soon as Nolan was punched, every guy in the school enters an all out battle. All because of me
>I don't want this. I know I'm irresistible, but this is just too much. How did it get to this?

>This morning

>"Give this to the guy you like and his heart will surely skip a beat." Rainbow Dash says as she gives an envelope to Fluttershy "Just, don't read it, or it'll lose its magic"
>This is clearly some sort of prank, but Fluttershy trusts Rainbow Dash so much that she will inevitably fall for it. I guess I won't help her out this time, as much as I love her, she needs to learn to not be so trusting
>"Okay, I won't even think of opening it" her innocence only makes me want to interfere
What's that, Fluttershy?
>"It's a Valentine's card"
And may I know who the lucky recipient of this missive is
>"..."
>I guess telling it to Rainbow Dash was already a big hurdle for her, let's not press that issue any longer
Can I please take a look at that envelope?
>"O-okay, but don't open it"
>I take it and give it a look as the prankster and the victim watch me
>The envelope is but a plain one, clearly Rainbow Dash's choice, and no indication as to who the recipient is
I'm sorry Fluttershy, but I can't allow you to give this to the man you like
>"Why?" asks my pink haired friend
>"What's your problem?" says Rainbow dash as she glares at me. I return her murderous glance with a smirk
A proper love letter must be sealed with a kiss
>"Really?" Fluttershy asks while Rainbow Dash gives me a thumbs up outside our naive friend's field of vision
>"I can't believe how dumb I am, I forgot of the most important part" Rainbow says, following my little game
>I'm sorry Fluttershy, I just couldn't resist the temptation
>Blushing, she applies some lipstick and mentally prepares to kiss the envelope
>If her face was all I can see, I would say that she's about to kiss the love of her life for the first time because she looks really nervous. Her hands tremble and waves of red start covering her normally yellow face as she moves her lips towards the piece of paper
>Fluttershy lightly pecks the envelope leaving a pink impression of her lips' silhouette on it
[spoiler][The author is totally not jealous of a fictional piece of paper]
[/spoiler]
>Rainbow Dash and I giggled to our selves while Fluttershy removes the lipstick’s remains from her mouth
>Applejack, who was silently watching us while Pinkie and Twilight were talking about ponyworld, walks up to me and whispers "Don't cha think you're takin' this a bit too far?"
>I whisper back at her
Don't worry, this surely is just a light prank, remember that Rainbow always goes soft on Fluttershy
>"Ah hope you're right" she replies with a deadpan look
>The space of calm after my evil deed gave me enough time to realize something, this is my last year of highschool and I haven't found the perfect man yet
To think we're already on St. Valentine's day and I have no boyfriend yet
>I couldn't help but voice my frustration
Am I doomed to a life with no romance? Is it that there's no prince charming out there coming to my rescue?
>"Ah guess yer standards may be a bit high"
>"What's St. Valentine's day?" Twilight asks, her curiosity makes me remember an easily forgotten fact, she's not from our world
>"It's a day in which couples get all lovey dovey"
>"Oh, it's your version of the hearts and hooves day"
Hearts and hooves?
>"It's the day in which we celebrate romantic love, it's called like that because it's a day for those who give their heart to their loved ones, or their hoof in marriage"
Well, it really makes much more sense than calling it St. Valentine's day
>"Why are you so concerned about St. Valentine's day?" Twilight dares to ask, not perceiving my predicament "it's not like you'll be unable to find a boyfriend on another day"
Don't you get it? this is our last year of Highschool, my last chance to have a highschool Valentine
>"And?" Rainbow Dash is as tactless as always
If I don’t get a boyfriend now, I will have spent my whole life without a highschool romance and I will, most likely, end up being and old maid. You don't want that for me, do you?
>"Don't ya think you are exaggeratin' a lil' bit?"
Me, exaggerating? I am not doing so, this is the most important aspect in the life of a young lady such as myself and it should be important to you as well. We're talking about love here
>I can't believe it, my own friends being unable to see that we're wasting our highschool life
>"Uuhm... Rari-"
>"C'mon Rarity that must be the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard." The nerve she has, Rainbow Dash seems to be looking for a spot on my list "Also, your pretty girl act can only get you so far, no guy would fall for a desperate drama queen like you"
>My blood is boiling, you'll get a piece of my mind Rainbow Dash
>"Umh, you know..."
WELL, LISTEN HERE YOU LITTLE LADY, -
>"'Sup niggers, what's going on?"
>"Hi there Sunny. Nothing much, just that Rarity is all bummed because she doesn't have a BF for Valentine's"
Pinkie! why you!
>"Hahaha, oh Rares, having a boyfriend isn't all that great," here comes the know it all, just because she had a boyfriend she thinks she knows all about men "you need to spend time with him, then you have to get used to his habits, and worst of all, you have to listen to his elementary school level conversation. You're better off with no boyfriend, though it's not like you have a choice, (insert petty no boyfriend insult)"
Well, talk for yourself missy. Brad is practically the easiest guy here; he would even go out with Granny Smith if she felt like it
>"Then, how come you haven't gone out with Brad?"
Ooooh, I can’t believe you think that's a good point Sunset, Brad is the worst excuse of a man around here, I would never consider him worthy of my time. I guess you're just so desperate and lonely that you just had to conform with whatever you could take, you just got the easiest catch miss "I don't know how to make friends"
>That'll teach her
>"Stop saying bad things about Br- Sunset." Twilight joins our friendly conversation
>"Yeah, that was a low blow, even for me" Rainbow Dash says
I guess I did go overboard there, I'm sorry Sunset
>"Don't worry Rares, I was just messing with you, and I got me a nice picture for your caller id"
>On her phone there's a picture of me in the middle of my rant. Her unfazed smile shows how I fell right into what she planed
Well played
>I guess she can keep it as her trophy, and it'll be a reminder for me to not lose temper ever again
>"Rarity..." Flutershy meekly says, she has been wanting to say something for a long while, I guess I'll hear her out this time
>"Well, if Brad's not yer type" Applejack interferes "why don't you go out with Blueblood, Ah remember you were head over heels for him"
I don't want to see him ever again, not after the Fall Formal fiasco he was not a gentleman at all, I don't even know what I liked about him"
>"He's good looking and has a lot of money, way to be not superficial there"
Ha, ha, how funny Rainbow forgive me if I fail to voice the amusement your clever joke makes me feel
>"Umm..." Fluttershy raises her voice a bit "if you want someone gentle, maybe you should give a chance to No-"
>"Yes," Twilight speaks as if she had realized something from Fluttershy's little speech "Nolan is perfect for you, he has all the money and looks of Blueblood but with a gentle and caring personality"
Stop assuming I'm superficial for having had a crush on Blueblood. On Nolan, I do admit he's dreamy, but he's taken; also, there's something weird about him. The times I've seen him outside school, he's always surrounded by shady men; even at school, he always has that dangerous looking blue guy around. He can't be a good person if he has that kind of company
>"You know girls," Fluttershy tries to say something once again "Rarity may not be interested in appearances or money so instead of those guys she should give a look at N-"
>"Indeed, Rarity is not as superficial as she seems." Rainbow Dash finally said something nice about me, but her choice of words makes me unable to take it as a compliment “The perfect guy for her is Adam, he lacks the money and the face”
I think I’d prefer to be seen as superficial
>”Well,” Twilight takes the word once again “what are you looking for in a boyfriend? Because it seems you don’t like anyone”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZNTDSiqA4U
>”Did ya really need to sing that?”
Apparently, I’m a desperate drama queen, so it’s in my right to make a show out of whatever I please
>”Umm… could you listen to what I have to say, if you don’t mind?”
Okay, what do you want to say?
>”Why don’t you, maybe, give Norman a chance? It seems he like-
>”He’s like the nicest guy around” Says Pinkie while shutting Fluttershy’s mouth with her hand, then she whispers something to her ear but I can’t listen to it very well [spoiler]“you can’t go revealing someone else’s crush, he wouldn’t forgive himself”[/spoiler]
Norman?
>How come I hadn’t thought of him?
He indeed is a nice guy and a real gentleman; he’s always treated me like a lady
>”Yes indeedy,” says Pinkie “it’s surprising that he hasn’t got a girlfriend yet, you could say he’s in the same position as you, as if you were made for each other. You must have been brought together by fate, linked since the beginning of time”
But, he’s like that to everyone; I guess he just doesn’t have a crush on anybody. Whenever he does something special for me, I just feel like another one in the pile. I think that if I tried to go out with him, things would just be the same as they are now. Don’t get me wrong, I like his gentle side, but he’ll never make me feel special over the others. He’s just too kind. I want my future boyfriend to love me and care for me more than any other girl
>”So,” Twilight says “all you need for you to get your ideal boyfriend is to find out who’s in love with you, right?”
I guess so, why?
>”I read about a spell that could help you find him. Just let me get that spell book”
>”Are you sure this magic will be safe?” to my surprise, Sunset was the one who asked this question
>”Don’t worry, it’ll just last some hours and I can always revert the effect”
>Twilight takes a book out of her backpack
>”Let me read the description for you. Members of the opposite sex, there’s a little blur here, those who are in love with the receiver of this spell will think he or she is irresistible. In short, this’ll make the ones who are in love with you find you irresistible and most likely confess their love for you. Wanna try it?”
Yes!
>Twilight begins chanting an incantation
>”Don’t you think, not because I know about this, that you should, maybe, worry a little bit about that blur, if it’s not too much of a trouble?”
>As soon as Fluttershy is done speaking, a beam of light comes out of Twilight’s finger
>”Too late to worry about that,” says Twilight “but I assure you, nothing is wrong with the spell”
I don’t feel different in any way, are you sure this wasn’t just a trick with lights?
>”Of course, it was real magic”
I guess only time will tell; but, what if nobody loves me?
>”In that case I guess it’ll be just a normal day for you”
>”Except for the fact that you’ll know for sure that no one loves you”
Rainbow Dash, you’ve been testing my patience during this whole conversation, and I must inform you that it is effectively running out
>”Hahaha, okay, okay”
It’s not okay; you’re really making me angry, what’s wrong with you today
>”Well, you’re being very annoying today”
I guess you’re right
>And, with that, the bell rings and we all enter our classes
>As I walk to my seat, I can feel even more stares than usual. I guess Twilight’s spell worked, many boys are asking me to sit by their side; actually, every boy but Norman. To think so many guys were in love with me. Had I known this, I wouldn’t have been so sad in the morning. I am the most loved girl in the school
>Hours of me getting all the attention I deserve pass, guys carrying my books or holding doors open just for me, and me alone. I bet that if it was Norman holding the door, he would wait until the whole school crossed it before letting it close. That’s exactly what bothers me about him. But well, it’s not that he likes me or that I like him. Damn it Fluttershy, you’re the one who made him stick to my head. Even so, I’d thought that with me being his friend, he would have been of the ones in love with me; but, he’s just being the same as always. I guess I misinterpreted his good intentions, maybe he likes Twilight or Pinkie; they are always together after all
>Let’s stop thinking about that guy, I can’t feel down because a guy doesn’t love me, because the whole school seems to be in love with me. I can pick who ever I want as my boyfriend, let’s see who loves me the most
>As I giggle to myself, a yellow hand blocks my way
>”Rarity, I can’t believe it took me this long to realize that we’re meant to each other”
Brad?
>”I love you Rarity, all I want is to make you mine”
>He pins me to the wall and I get lost in his beautiful eyes. He had never looked at me in this way, I can now understand why Sunset fell for him
>He’s so forceful, yet the look in his eyes is gentle. I could melt in his arms
>Slowly he moves his face towards mine
>”You’re mine” he whispers
Wait!
>I yell as I push him away
Why do you think we’re meant to each other?
>”Uhhhhh….” His head seems to be completely empty “you have blue hair, like me”
>I don’t want to imagine the face I showed, after seeing his scared expression
>He may be in love with me but his feelings are not deep enough to pierce my heart
>I keep walking as guys stare at me, greet me, and some even try to touch me
>The crowd of men has become impassable; I guess that now that I know everybody is in love with me, I could tell Twilight to remove the spell, because it has certainly become an annoyance. I love the extra attention, but my beauty has become a load too heavy to bear
>If only I could be saved from this multitude by a charming prince
>”OUT OF THE BOSS’s WAY IF YOU DON’T WANT ME TO BEAT YOUR ASSES”
>As soon as the thunderous voice is heard, the crowd dissipates
>”Well done Tim” Says Nolan
>I wonder if he’s also in love with me. Nah, his crush on Amy is so big that he could never call it a secret crush at all. That was true love at first sight
>”Rarity,” The red haired prince talks to me “you certainly look charming today. I don’t know what it is, maybe the light in your eyes, the silky texture of your hair, the symphony of your voice, or maybe the cadence of your steps. I can’t pinpoint the reason, but your beauty overwhelms my senses and judgment
>Oh, no one has ever told me something like that
I must say that your words are flattering; you really know how to please a woman with your words
>”Would you be so kind to bless me with your company for the rest of my”
>He’s so bold, I can’t resist his charm. Sorry Amy, but if he’s in love with me, nothing can be done
>”No, I can’t. I’m sorry Rarity, but I can’t play with your feelings, my only love is Amy.” That’s sort of what I expected anyways “but there’s something about you today that makes you so attractive that you could make any man abandon his whole life just to be with you”
>”Yeah baby, I’d fuck you right here” how rude
>”That’s no way to treat a lady Tim, it seems you’re lacking a bit of education and discipline, follow me to a more secluded place and I’ll teach you” his strict voice is immediately obeyed by the blue guy. Why couldn’t I be the one he loves the most? I swear that all of the good ones are taken
>Nolan and his friend walk away. I better find Twilight soon; I don’t want to find another guy like Nolan’s friend
>Once Nolan is gone, the crowd starts forming again. That’s my signal to start running away, if someone like that blue guy appears, there will be no one to protect me
>Running towards the library, because Twilight is bound to be there, I turn around a corner. It’s just a hallway with nothing but lockers. Norman is there, and he looks at me like he normally would, that proves he’s not affected by the spell
Norman, help me, please!
>”What’s wrong Aryan?” he asks me with a strong look of worry
They are chasing me, please do something!
>”Who? Why? Never mind, get inside!” He shoves me into his locker
>I can’t believe he just did that with no hesitation, I know he doesn’t love me, but this is a bit too much, I’ll have a word or two with this insensitive brute once this is done
>”Hey racist, where’s Rarity?” some non-descript guy says “you ain’t hiding her in your locker, right?”
>Oh, no! Not even the metallic door of this locker can hide my beauty from the rest of the world
>”Uhmm...” Norman takes a second to think about his answer, it seems “She went to the library”
>”Of course, she’s so intelligent she’d obviously spend her lunch break studying”
>Studying is a noble activity, but I think this guy may have been blinded by his infatuation over me
>“Ah… yeah, whatever floats your boat” What?!
>“Are you saying she doesn’t study?”
Yeah!
>”Did you hear that?” oops
>”I didn’t hear anything” Norman tries his best to remedy my little mistake “it may have been your imagination, or maybe a mouse”
>I swear you’re doing this intentionally, are you in cahoots with Rainbow Dash?
>”Anyways,” the guy says “don’t say that Rarity is stupid again, or I’ll beat your ass”
>Yeah background extra number 134 Norman shouldn’t treat me in this way
>”Don’t put words in my mouth” Norman replies “it’s just that, if she went to the library, it would have been to get inspiration for her new designs; not to study. She does that at home like any responsible person would”
>He really knows me
>”Anyways, go get her. You don’t want her getting away, do you?”
>”Right, careful there racist” I think that guy was Blueblood, I’m not sure though, because the times I spoke with him are the ones I want to forget the most
>I wait inside Norman’s locker while the crowd of guys passes in front of it
>I can see something on the locker’s door. It is pictures
>There are pictures of us together. hehehe. He’s like a girl
>I can’t believe he’s got a picture of Fluttershy smiling and looking at the camera. There’s also a heart shaped picture of Pinkie blowing a kiss, maybe they are going out and haven’t told anyone; they are always together after all. But then again, I think I have that same picture somewhere in my diary. Now that I think about it, Norman has never asked me for a picture; if I had known he had photos of us, I would have given him one. Well, at least he has pictures of me, but none of them are of me alone or of us together. Maybe he doesn’t see me as a possible girlfriend
>Come on! I don’t like him in that way, why should I even care?!
>Once everyone is gone, Norman sighs in relief and opens the door
>”I’m sorry; I just didn’t know what to do. Why are those guys going after you? Normally it’s just me… I mean the one they chase, not me going after you”
I know, of course you didn’t mean that
>Now I know for sure that he is not interested in me
I’ll tell you, but promise not to laugh
>”Okay”
You know how Twilight does magic, right?
>”Goddamnit Purple, why do you always ruin everyone’s life?!” he has said this so many times that it doesn’t matter anymore, they always make up and keep being friends
It’s not her fault, she suggested the spell, but I was the one who asked her to use it on me
>”But still, she should have considered the risks, or at least she should have been watching you. By the way, what does the spell do?”
 Please don’t laugh
>”I already promised I wouldn’t”
Okay then, this spell lets me know who’s in love with me
>“Eh?! That can’t be! I’m sorry; I wanted to tell you so badly, but I just didn’t dare because of fear of losing your friendship”
Don’t worry Norman, you are a good friend, and you being the only boy in the school who’s not in love with me is not going to change that
>”What?”
I know you’re not in love with me, if you were, you’d be crazy about me, just like everyone else
>”But I love you Aryan!”
No need to fake, the spell just works like that; if you loved me, you’d be unable to resist your feelings for me. You’d be different from your usual self, but you have been acting normally the whole day. You are the only one who hasn’t changed. Even Nolan confessed he loves me, and you know how Amy is the only one for him. If you were in love with me, you would have tried to steal a kiss from me or something like that. But don’t worry, I don’t care if you don’t love me, as long as we can be friends forever
>“Okay…” It seems Norman is a bit disappointed, I wonder if me knowing about his lack of feelings for me makes him feel sad. He shouldn’t worry about that
>”How can I help you?”
I need to find Twilight, but you sent all my admirers to the library
>”Don’t worry, Purple is at the lunch hall. Let’s go get her”
>And so, we go towards the one who can release me from this self imposed curse
>However, blocking our way, an unexpected suitor waits for us
>”I’ve read the school rules many times today,” he says “and I finally realized that there’s no rule against love”
I’m sorry, but I barely know you
>It seems he didn’t like my answer. He runs towards me, yelling and with his axe in hand “We can get to know each other after we’re bound by marriage”
>Before he could reach me, Norman jumps in front of me stopping the hall monitor dead on his tracks
>”I’m sorry, but it’s clear she doesn’t like you” Norman speaks in an authoritative tone worthy of a king “I ask you to let us pass”
>”That won’t do, because I think she may get to love me if she spends some watching me deliver justice.” the hall monitor says “Seeing that there’s no possible agreement among the parties and no jury to deliberate judgment, I hereby challenge you to a judicial duel, beanie wearing student. As Germanic law dictates”
>Right after speaking, the hall monitor punches Norman on the stomach and makes him fall with a leg sweep. Despite calling this a duel, this man hasn’t got an ounce of honor
>”Time to end this” says the man lifting his axe
>I’m paralyzed in fear. There’s only one thing I can do
Norman, please run away!
>I screamed with all my strength
>Norman raises his head just to see his opponent ready to strike him with an axe; however
>”Axcelia, why aren’t you moving, we need to end this trial by combat!”
>While the hall monitor argues with his… axe? I regain control of my body and help Norman up
Let’s run to the lunch hall
>”Okay” Norman replies
>”So you aren’t going to help me, well then, I need no axe”
>The hall monitor drops his weapon and runs towards Norman, once again trying to attack him. But Norman is ready now and stops the assault
>”Hall monitor, what you’re doing is wrong” says Norman while struggling against his opponent “the school rules don’t allow fighting”
>It seems Norman is trying to make the monitor regain reason by appealing to his rumored love for law
>”I am breaking the LAW!!” the monitor grabs his head while screaming, it seems Norman’s idea worked
>But, this victory is fruitless, because my scream for Norman to run away was heard by other guys
>”Rarity, I can’t stop thinking about you” Nolan, Blueblood, Brad and a multitude of students speak at unison
>"You know you're mine" Brad says while putting his arm around me
>"How dare you commoner, Rarity can only be by the side of someone such as I, Blueblood. If you want her, you and everyone else will have to go over my dead body"
>"Guys, you won't get anything from violence," says Adam, acting as the voice of reason, maybe he's the one for me "especially because I have superior firepower" he takes a bunch of machines out of his pockets. I take back my previous thoughts
>"Heh, silly Adam, you know nothing about firepower. Tim call the Saints because Rarity is mine" No, Nolan, please not you, you're almost the perfect man!
>"SHE'S MINE" the big blue guy punches Nolan's face
>As soon as Nolan was punched, every guy in the school enters an all out battle. All because of me and that stupid spell. I should have never accepted Twilight’s good will
>Everyone is fighting around me, even Norman, but just because he’s making Brad release me
>Other guys attack Norman and Brad relentlessly, despite me being right there. Thankfully, Norman is here to receive all those hits, I need to give him something special one of these days
>After a fierce struggle, Norman manages to set me free and get me out of the fray
>”Get away from here Aryan, go to Twilight, I’ll do my best to keep the guys away from you
But, you don’t have to do it, why would you go this far for me?
>”Because, if I don’t help you, no one will”
>Why can’t he be in love with me? If this is what he would do for a friend, I can’t even begin to imagine what he would do for his girlfriend
>I run away not daring to look at the scene behind me. The longer it takes to end this, the more he will have to endure, so I won’t waste any second
>As soon as I open the lunch hall’s door I shout
TWILIGHT, UNDO THE SPELL
>Seeing my desperation, Twilight immediately begins chanting her incantation to stop the spell. An explosion of light signals that the spell has been defused
>I run back to Norman right away only to see him covered in bruises and surrounded by a crowd of guys apologizing to each other
>”Please forgive me Axcelia,” screams our hall monitor “I don’t know what got into me. Let me do at least one final act of justice with you!”
>Everyone looks at him with attention. All of us feel bit intimidated by his madness
>”Male students of Canterlot High,” he declares “due to our unruly behavior consisting of fighting, harassing, threatening, and, most importantly, running on the hallways, we all get one month of detention starting right now. So make a row and let’s all walk together to what we deserve”
>The boys obediently follow the words of the axe wielding maniac and form a row as instructed. As Norman approached the row, the monitor told him “No detention for you, you were merely defending yourself”
>Norman’s friends apologize to him, while other guys just ignore him
>Once he’s left alone, I approach him
Norman, I have no words to thank you for all you did for me
>I kiss his cheek
You’re the best friend a girl could ever have
>We have a short, pointless conversation, and I go home. Today was quite a tiring day
-Dear diary. Today I learned that, sometimes, what we want the most is what we can never have-

Being Norman

>Today I was friendzoned real hard, but at least I spent a short while with the Aryan Beauty. If only she felt for me what I feel for her
>I keep thinking of her as I walk to the lunch hall in order to finally get my lunch
>I can eat calmly because classes were canceled due to the incident. I’m glad I got no detention
>There’s no one but me in the lunch hall, as if I wasn’t enough of a loser already
>Suddenly, I feel a pat on my back. It’s Yellow
>She surely came to try and cheer me up but will end up just stuttering
>”Uhm… hi Norman”
>Typical Yellow behavior
Hi there Yellow, how are you?
>”I’m fine…” she stops for a second, seemingly, to think “Sorry things didn’t work with Rarity”
Don’t worry; it’s not your fault
>“I want you to read this” she hands me a letter sealed by a pink kiss
>Okay, what?
>I open the envelope and check the card inside
Hahahaha, you really know how to cheer someone up Yellow
>”Huh?” I don’t think she wrote this so I guess I’ll show it to her
Just look at your card, any guy would cheer up after being told this
>She reads the text
-You know how much I love animals, right?-
                               -Well then, I want you to fuck me like a beast!-
>Just to faint afterwards
>I am too tired to take her farther than one of the benches by the wall, so I just do so, and cover her with my jacket just so she doesn’t get cold
I guess I’ll have to be here with you until you wake up

Being Fluttershy

>I can’t believe Rainbow Dash did this to me, that was so indecent, but I’m glad it helped him cheer up
>Speaking about Norman, how do I tell him I’m already awake? I can’t believe he has me resting my head on his lap
>Some minutes pass and he falls asleep due to exhaustion. I take this chance to look at his hands; they are all bruised due to what happened today
>I take his hands and move them under his jacket, near my body, where they will be warm
>Without realizing, I also fall asleep, and we stay there until dusk. When a teacher tells us to go home. I haven’t slept so well in years

Being Rarity

>One day after the St. Valentine’s Day’s Disaster
>I tell Twilight about all that happened on the previous day
>”You know Rarity”
Yes?
>”It turns out that the blurry part of the spell’s description was kind of important”
What does this mean?
>”Well, the spell actually says: Members of the opposite sex, EXCEPT those who are in love with the receiver of this spell will think he or she is irresistible. Now that I think about you, what I told you yesterday didn’t really make any sense. Everyone knows that magic doesn’t affect actual love. You know, some people even use true love to break this kind of enchantment”
>Well, now I understand what happened with Nolan and the hall monitor
>”In short, it means that none of the guys from yesterday actually love you”
>Just what I needed, another blow to my self-esteem
>”Out of all the guys in the school Norman’s the one who seems to be in love with you, at least this experience helped you find out this” the smile on her face only makes me want to make some of her teeth fly
Goddamnit Twilight, that little part of info would have been really useful yesterday before I friendzoned him to oblivion because I thought he didn’t like me
>My eyes tear up a bit
To think that I fell for him just when everything is over!
>I start sobbing
Why do I see this now?!
>”Come on Rarity, it’s not like he’ll stop loving you from one day to the next one”
Do you think he may still… love me?
>”Maybe?”
That’s all I need to know
>With a newfound resolution and finally knowing who my charming prince is, I walk out the door of the school’s library (which is open on Saturday and is where Twilight sleeps) in order to look for him and finally enter the world of romance
I love you Norman!
