Chapter 10: 10. Chapter 10

Previous Chapter

Shadow sat down in the chair, "She said, yes," he blushed a small bit.

"Cool," responded Dylan. "Where you to going?"

"She, didn't want me to say anything to anypony."

Dylan was confused, "Did she say why?"

"No, not really."

Dylan shrugged and joined in a conversation with his friends.

As time went on it got late. Pinkie Pie just finished saying, "And then I said, 'Oatmeal, are you crazy'!" which made everypony laugh. The eight ponies laughed.

Applejack noticed there was nopony else besides them, then proceeded to look at the clock. "Wow, it's pretty late. I gotta hit the hay." Applejack began to get up then said, "Coming Dylan, Astral?"

Dylan responded, "I'll stay here for a few more minutes, I'll follow back later."

Astral said, "I'll stay here with Dylan."

"Suit yourself," responded Applejack as she left.

As time progressed more of the mane 6 left. Then it was just the 'out of this world ponies'. "Guys, I have something to ask you."

"Yeah?" was the type of response from the three ponies.

"We've been here like what, a week?"

"Actually," Shadow said, "it's now the end of January so we have been here for a month, if you include the time we've been in the hospital."

"Whatever," Dylan replied. "I was kind of wondering if we should tell the others where we really came from. Not from Fillydelphia, but back on Earth."

"Really?" asked Shadow, "because I actually had the same idea." He looked at Astral and Andy, "What do you two think?"

Astral and Andy shared a glance, Astral responded, "I guess it would be okay."

Andy said, "Why not, it's not like they have asked us anything about Fillydelphia."

Dylan began to nod, "Alright so it's settled, we'll tell them."

"But how?" asked Shadow.

"How else?" responded Dylan with a smirk, "Pinkie Pie throws a party and at the end we tell them." After a few seconds he then said, "Or we could tell them individually."

"I like the party idea better," said Astral.

Andy and Shadow agreed with Astral. Dylan said to Shadow, "Alright, I guess you'll have to tell Pinkie to have a party with just the four of us and the mane 6."

Shadow nodded.

They all said good bye to each other and left to their respective homes. Shadow not leaving Sugarcube Corner due to him living there.

Andy left to the boutique and went to his room. Before going to bed however, he doodled a bit in his drawing notebook. Most of the picture obviously Rarity in different poses and different outfits.

Dylan walked to Sweet Apple Acres with Astral. Astral went straight to bed, being up for 2 more hours than he normally does. Dylan was walking passed Applejack's room and heard talking.

The door muffling most of the sound Dylan couldn't make out what was being said. He knocked on the door softly. The talking suddenly stopped, moments later the door opened up revealing Applejack, "Hello?"

"Applejack, you alright? I heard talking."

"It's uh, it was nothing. I just had a slightly bad dream and woke up. Whenever I wake up from bad dreams I need to talk to myself to calm down."

"Would you like me to, uh, keep you company, fight away the bad dreams," Dylan gave a small blush and nervous chuckle at his bad joke.

"Dylan, you don't really need to," Applejack was blushing a bit back.

"I insist, I could just stay in the room with you until you're asleep then go back to my bed."

"I guess some company wouldn't be too bad. I just don't want you to just stay in my room until I fall asleep." Applejack paused for a second then said without thinking, "You could sleep in, uh, my bed with me." After realizing what she said her face went as red as the apples she bucks, "I, uh, didn't mean that, I meant, um-."

Dylan stopped Applejack's babbling by giving her a kiss for a few seconds. His face was somewhat crimson after she finished talking. After the kiss broke Dylan noticed Applejack's face was still red, "It's alright with me if you want me to sleep in your bed with you tonight." Dylan's face was almost as red as hers.

"Well, uh, alright then," Applejack gave a small smile as she walked back to her bed and laid down.

Dylan followed her and closed the door behind him. He set down his glasses and joined her in bed. Both of them smiling a bit with bright red blushes.

As the land started to wake up, Andy woke up along with it. The first thing he did was head to the bathroom and fix his mane and tail. After that he left for the main room. As Andy arrived he saw a letter just in front of the door.

He walked over to it and picked it up, "'You're invited! To a Pinkie Pie Party at Sugarcube Corner, 9PM.'" Andy had read the letter out loud, after he read it he put it on the counter for Rarity to see.

As time went on, Dylan and Applejack just finished their harvesting work. Dylan looked up at the sky and can't believe it was getting dark already. Astral -who only saw the letter about the party several hours later- came running towards them. "It's almost 9! We should have been at Sugarcube Corner by now!"

"Astral," said Dylan, "you know we had work to do, and besides you were with the Crusaders, I'm sure you had stuff to do with them too."

"Oh, speaking of Crusaders, that reminds me, can Applebloom tag along to the party?"

"Why just Applebloom? Why not the others too?"

"Well, while I was slicing apples with Applebloom she saw the letter and asked if she could come, so I said I would asked, so can she?"

Dylan looked at Applejack, she gave a small grin with a shrug, he looked back at his brother and said, "Sure, I guess."

Astral, with a smile on his face, ran back to Applebloom. The both of them returning 2 minutes later. The four of them started walking to SCC.

As they walked in Shadow said, "Now the party can begin!" somebody started the music as all, but Dylan, started dancing. Dylan only sat at a table watching everypony else having fun.

Andy, Astral and Shadow didn't go to Dylan to ask why he wasn't dancing because they already knew, Applejack however, did. "Why aren't you dancing like everypony else Dylan?"

"I uh, I don't dance," he responded.

"Well why not?"

"One reason would be for embarrassment and another is that I can't dance."

"Have you seen Twilight?"

They both glanced at Twilight, doing that awkward dance she does. "That may be true, but I just don't dance."

"Alright then," Applejack replied sitting down next to him.

Dylan looked at her, "What are you doing?"

"If you aren't gonna dance then I'm not either."

Dylan sighed, he remembered that years before he went to a summer camp where they were doing a camp pride thing with painting their nails a certain color and he didn't do it. Since he didn't do it a Counselor didn't either, which guilt-ed him into doing it anyway.

"Applejack, you don't have to do this, I'm fine being alone not dancing, I do it all the time."

"Well this time you aren't gonna be alone."

"I don't want to ruin your fun, you should go back dancing."

"Dylan, I am having fun. Sitting here with you is all I need to have fun."

Dylan slightly blushed.

Hours have passed, Applejack and Dylan were still sitting on the staircase making smalltalk. The music died down and Pinkie Pie had said, "Now that this party is coming to an end I was told that our friends, Andy, Astral, Dylan and Shadow, have something to say."

Dylan got up and walked to his friends that were at the counter and the mane six -including Applebloom== gathered at a table.

Dylan was the first to speak, first starting with a sigh, "Andy, Astral, Shadow and I would like to tell you about our past. The thing is we haven't been completely honest about it..."

Andy carried on for him, "We decided last night that we should tell you the truth about us, and you can even ask Princess Celestia to clarify."

Astral then said, "The thing is we don't actually come from Fillydelphia, nor did we go adventuring and get hit from there ending up in the hospital."

Shadow continued, "Where we actually are from is a place called Earth, in the United States to be exact."

The same patterned continued as they talked, Dylan starting again, "We aren't actually ponies either, we are, well Humans."

"It was Dylan's birthday when the accident happened, I called them over to meet me at a cafe where we would celebrate Dylan's birthday."

"And as Dylan, Shadow and I were heading over to meet Andy, Dylan fell of this thing called a skateboard, breaking his knee."

"His skateboard hit the one I was riding and I fell of mine and scraped my knee, that's when Andy and Astral came over to help us."

"As they did a truck came, which is like a cart here I guess, came and hit us. The next thing we knew... we were in the hospital not knowing where we were or what happened to us."

"However," said Andy, "we realized where we were when Twilight healed us."

After a few seconds of silence Twilight said, "So you're saying that you're humans from the United States on Earth..." the four nodded their heads.

"So why didn't you tell us the truth from the beginning," asked Rainbow Dash.

Dylan spoke up, "Tell me, would you believe a pony you just met saying that they were from a different planet with humans the inhabit it?"

"Well... no not really."

"We didn't want to seem like outcasts from all of you, and something we forgot to mention was that back on Earth, there is a show about all of you. From since Twilight first came here to, well, now."

Shadow then said, "If you don't want to hang out with us anymore, I guess we should accept that."

"Why wouldn't we want to hang out with you anymore?" asked Fluttershy.

"Yeah! Having new, different kinds of friends seem great!" added Pinkie Pie.

"W-What? Really?" Dylan said somewhat excited.

"Eeyup," said Applejack and Applebloom simultaneously.

"Of course," replied Rarity.

"Why not?!" practically screamed Pinkie.

"Seems nice," added Fluttershy.

"Would be awesome," responded Rainbow.

"Yes, really," plainly told by Twilight.

The four 'out-of-this-world' ponies were excited, each one of them giving out smiles.

Rarity yawned, "I think I should be getting to bed soon, I do have dresses to make in the morning."

Each one of the ponies slowly began to leave, except for Pinkie and Shadow.

As Dylan and Astral began to leave Applejack at her room she said, "Dylan?"

Dylan stopped as Astral continued to bed, "Yeah, Applejack?" he asked.

Scratching the back of her neck she said, "If you want could sleep in here from now on, or um, I mean, again," she ended with a weak smile, but a big blush.

"Uh, sure, why not?" Dylan returned the weak smile with a small blush.

Dylan followed Applejack into her room and joined her in bed after she put her Stetson away, and Dylan put his glasses down.

After a few minutes Applejack thought Dylan had fell asleep. She rolled over to look at him and he was facing to a wall. Applejack had been thinking if she should do this ever since she got into the bed. Making her decision she got up a bit and kissed Dylan on his cheek. She then went back to lying down and closed her eyes.

What Applejack just did shocked Dylan, even though it shouldn't due to what happened between them on their date. It was probably the heat of the moment Dylan had told himself due to how forward she was on the date.

Thinking about what just happened, Dylan turned over a minute later. His eyesight was blurry, everything except for Applejack due to him being near-sighted. Dylan counted to three in his head then closed his eyes, turned his head a bit and leaned forward, kissing Applejack.

Applejack opened her eyes from shock. The first thing she saw was Dylan kissing her. Nothing else was there, as if the both of them were in a blank space. She then closed he eyes and started to kiss back.

The kissing ended only seconds later, they both went to bed smiling with blushes.

Note from the author: Yes, because there are 6 OC characters in this story and I'm only focusing on Dylan...

No but seriously, I will get to the others soon enough, like Star Blitz with Fluttershy, Andy with Rarity, Astral with Applebloom and Shadow with Vinyl.
