You want to tell Applejack something, but for the life of you, you can’t remember. You don’t want to keep her waiting while you desperately try to remember what you had to say, so you just say “Never mind.” Applejack shows a look of confusion on her face as she turns around and walks up the stairs.
You mentally kick yourself for making yourself look like a total idiot in front of AJ. The minute she gets out of your sight, you instantly remember what you wanted to tell her. You were going to tell her that you had feelings for her. Your mind must have gone blank when she turned her attention to you. You take out your phone and send replies to all your other texts saying the same thing: “Sorry, I have a previous engagement.” You get responses within seconds.
Rainbow Dash: “No worries, then. I can find someone else.”
Pinkie Pie: “Awwwwww! Okay, then.”
Rarity: “Well, I suppose it can’t be helped. Good luck with whatever you’re doing.”
Twilight Sparkle: “Alright then. I wouldn’t want to interrupt your ‘engagement’.”
You can’t help but think that Twilight put some passive aggression in her message, and you can sense the disappointment in Rarity’s message. Well, you can’t please everyone. Just then, you hear a familiar voice.
“Hi, [your name]!” the voice says. You turn to see a yellow pony with a pinkish-red mane and tail coming down the stairs.
"Hey, Applebloom." you say.
"So, I was wondering'… if you'd like to see my clubhouse." she says. You were aware that Applebloom hung out with two other ponies and that they were known as the Cutie Mark Crusaders, but you didn't know that they were a legit club. "Umm… sure." you say.
"Great! Come on!" she says as she practically drags you by your arm to her clubhouse, with her older sister trailing behind the two of you. Applebloom spends the next several minutes showing you around the club house. You catch sight of a long list of talents that the Crusaders attempted in order to find out what their special talent was. You chuckle to yourself. After the "grand tour," you and the Apple sisters lounge around outside the clubhouse. You decide to take a chance and ask AJ out, but you had to get her sister out of the way, first.
"Hey, Applejack," you say.
"Yeah?" she says, turning her attention to you.
"Can I talk to you in private for a second?" you ask.
"Okay…" she says, unsure of where you're going with this.
"Applebloom," she says. "Could you give me and [your name] some alone time for a hot minute?"
"Ummm, okay." she says, and she walks back to the house.
"Alrighty, we're alone now, so what is it that you were fixin' to say?" asks AJ.
This was your chance now. You silently hope that you don't screw this up. "Well, I was wondering…" | Members who added to this interactive story also contributed to these: |
