HI everypony, I'm glad so many people like my story so far, that's really all I've got to say at this point so let's just get right to it.

Enjoy

Chapter 4: Flying lesson

The next morning, I awoke to see the book was in my face, I must have fallen asleep while reading again.

I pushed the book off my face and let out a big yawn. When my vision cleared more, I was at first a bit confused where I was but then I remembered I was in the library's guest room.

I got out of bed and walked out of the door into the next room. Twilight and Spike weren't in their beds; I figured they were down stairs so I went down the stairs and into the kitchen, that's when I saw Twilight sitting on the table and Spike cooking breakfast.

"Morning Matt, how was your sleep?" Twilight asked

"It was nice, the bed was really comfy." I said while sitting at the table.

I suddenly felt a bunch of irritating itches all over my body and I was wheezing every time I breathed. Oh no not here too.

I was scratching all over. So bad in fact, that some of my coat was falling out.

Twilight then got a concerned look on her face, "are you ok?"

"Sorry, I suffer from Eczema and Asthma, it's terrible." I explained while still scratching.

Twilight the tapped her chin and then she walked out of the room, a few seconds later she returned with a book called curing spells.

"Hold still Matt, this might tingle" Twilight said as she flipped through the pages, she then stopped to read the page and then her horn started to glow.

I saw a purple glow form around me and I felt tingly, the glow then faded away and I felt nothing, which was exactly the point.

All the itches were gone and I could breathe clearly. I couldn't believe it, after 16 years of scratching and coughing, I was finally cured.

"I don't believe it, I've been trying to ease my diseases for years but you managed to do it in mere seconds, Twilight your amazing." I cheered as I gave her a warm hug.

She blushed as I did and hugged me back "you welcome."

My eyes shot open when I realized how awkward this must be and then broke the hug.

"Well…I...Errr….should get going, Rainbow Dash said she'd teach me how to fly today." I said as I got off the table and headed towards the door.

"Oh….do you have to go?" Twilight asked a little disappointed.

I turned back to face her, "Yeah, I'm really excited about flying. Don't worry, I'll be back later."

Twilight's ears lowered slightly "Ok, do you need anything before you go?"

I turned back to her "well, there is one thing. Where's the bathroom?"

Twilight then pointed to a door and I ran through it. "That's the closet." Twilight yelled.

I ran out the closet to see another door next to it, "I knew that." I said as I ran through the bathroom door.

Twilight let out a slight giggle.

Later: Fields outside Ponyville

A while later, I headed to the open field where Rainbow Dash said she'd meet me. I saw her with Fluttershy waiting for me so I went down to them.

"Hey Dash, whys Fluttershy here?"

"Oh, I..I'm here to teach you how to fly too, if it's alright with you?" Fluttershy said in her quiet voice.

I nodded my head, "sure it is."

We all then headed to a high cliff above a lake. "Ok, now the first thing you have to learn about flying is to find your inspiration and when you do, let it into your heart and when you feel it's rhythm, you fly." Rainbow Dash said while hovering over the cliff.

"How do I find my inspiration, I don't even think I have one" I said.

Rainbow dash then landed in front of me. "Well, you better find it soon because the only thing that's stopping you from falling into that lake is flying." She said as she walked behind me.

"WHOW WAIT! You want me to jump of the cliff?" I said in shock.

"No need." Rainbow Dash said with a deceitful grin.

"No need? What do you mean no-AHHH." I didn't finish my sentence as Rainbow Dash kicked me off the cliff.

I flapped my wings as hard as I could, I hovered in the air for a few seconds but it didn't last as I plummeted down to the lake below and landed with a big splash.

We tried it three more times which all ended in disaster. First I fell into the lake again, then I did manage to get into the air only to crash into a tree and finally I managed to get in the air again only to land in a prickle bush. After plucking all the thorns out my ass, I decided to call it a day and go back home to the library.

That night: Library

By time I reached the library, it was already dark out and all of Ponyville was asleep. I entered the library to find the living room was empty, I closed and locked the front door and went into the next room to find Twilight asleep with her head on a desk.

"Why is she sleeping on a desk? Did she stay up waiting for me? Why would she do that?" I forgot all my questions when I noticed Twilight shiver a bit.

"She must freezing, the poor thing." I thought to myself as I looked around to find a blanket on the floor.

I walked over to the blanket, picked it up with my mouth and carefully covered Twilight with it.

I then left to go upstairs to bed. As I walked upstairs, Twilight opened her eyes slightly and noticed the blanket covering her, she saw me going upstairs and smiled warmly, she then put her head back down and went back to sleep with a smile on her face.

The next morning, we were all at the kitchen table eating breakfast, I wasn't sure about most of the food here yet so I just ate sliced apple.

Twilight decided to break the silence. "So Matt, are you going to try and fly with Rainbow Dash again today?"

I let out a big sigh. "I don't really see a point anymore; I'll just end up falling into a lake, smacking into a tree or crashing into a prickle bush again." I then lowered my head in depression.

Twilight tapped her chin and a smile came on her face, she left the kitchen and then returned holding up what looked liked a necklace with her magic.

I felt the necklace fall onto my shoulders; I looked down to see a small purple diamond attached to a silver chain that went around my neck.

"It's my good luck charm; it helped me pass a magic test once, maybe it'll help you with you flying lesson." Twilight said with a confident smile.

I looked up to face Twilight. "Thanks Twi, I promise I'll take care of it."

Later: The cliff

I soon left the library and headed back to the cliff to find Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy waiting for me.

I walked over to them and Rainbow Dash's deceitful grin returned. "Ready to fly again Matt".

I smirked at her. "You bet. And this time, I'm jumping."

Fluttershy had a concerned look on her face. "Oh, I hope you'll find your inspiration Matt." She said in worry.

"I hope so too" I said under my breath.

I walked to the edge of the cliff and closed my eyes. "Come on Matt focus, inspiration." I said to myself.

I opened my eyes and looked down at Twilights necklace, I held the diamond in my hoof and thought about how nice Twilights been to me since I got here. I then felt my heart beat faster and my eyes shot open when I understood the situation.

I then closed my eyes again, flapped my wings and jumped off the cliff.

When I opened my eyes, I was surprised to see that I was high above the ground, soaring through the air.

"I'm flying, I don't believe this. This is too cool." I cheered as I turned back towards the cliff.

When I got back to the cliff, I saw that Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash were looking up at me.

Fluttershy had a cheerful smile while Rainbow Dashes mouth was hanging open.

"Who falling on their face now, Dash? Haha" I yelled down to her and then flew off towards Ponyville.

I flew through the streets of Ponyville and started doing a few stunts while doing it, catching the attention of some ponies.

Later that evening: Library

I landed outside the library and walked through the door to see Twilight reading a book, she looked up from her book to see me.

"Twilight guess what! I flew, I actually flew; I found my inspiration." I cheered.

Twilight's smile grew. "Matt that's great, what was it?"

Crap, how do I tell her the SHE was my inspiration?

"Errr well….my inspiration was…..HEY, here's you necklace back. It really helped." I quickly said taking the necklace off, trying to change the subject.

She then forgot about her previous question. She gave me a sweet smile "Keep it! You need it more than I do."

"Really, thanks Twi" I said warmly.

We then looked into each other's eyes. But the moment was interrupted by the sound of falling books.

We looked over to see Spike appear out of a pile of books "Sorry" he said sheepishly.

Twilight giggled and then turned back to me. "Well, I'm kinda tired so I'm going to bed. Goodnight Matt."

As I watched her go upstairs, I felt like calling for her to come back but decided to let her rest.

"Goodnight Twi." I said kindly.

She's so good to me. Tomorrow, I'm going to find a way to repay her. But how?

So how'd you like it? Hoped you enjoyed it and as always next chapter will be up soon.

Goodnight everypony.
