17. That Awkward Moment/ D'AWWW

A/N: This is going to be a very informative chapter for something later in the story. Sorry if you think it’s too short, I will try to make it up to you in the next chapter.

We all looked at each other in confusion. “What the hay just happened!” I said to them before I realized what I just said. I just said their equivalent to hell, I feel that awkward moment coming on again. I am such an idiot sometimes.

“The spell’s timer ran out. It only lasts about an hour before the connection fades. I really liked meeting your mother Kyle, she sure did accept the circumstances well” Twilight said to me happily. I knew you would like her, but what about the rest of you? I can already tell what RD is going to say.

Everypony besides Dash took their turns saying what they thought of my mother, all of which I was happy to hear the results. I turned to Rainbow “What did you think of my mom?” Here it comes.

“I thought she was alright, it’s just that…how can you take all of that mushy gushy stuff? It sounded weird” Rainbow Dash said to me.

“I’m going to tell you all something that I think you might find funny. The reason my mom acts so mushy is because she likes to make me feel uncomfortable. She knows that she will get a reaction out of me, which is why she does it” I said to all of them rubbing the back of my head with my hand. I hated saying that, incoming backfire in 3…2…1.

Dash looked at me and grinned widely. She then proceeded to fall to the floor of the library in a fit of laughter. “Th-that is the single *laughs* funniest thing I have ever heard *laughs* in my life!” Eeeyup, my spirit has been successfully crushed by RD; I have no more ‘sayian pride’ anymore. *fake sobs*

“HAR HAR HAR, very funny Dashie. I have been meaning to ask, AJ, do you think I could come by today instead? I am pretty bored right now” I asked the earth pony. Please say yes.

“Sure ya can sugarcube. Ah was gonna head back there now, ya’ll can come along with me iff’n ya want to” Applejack said to me. Yay, my first job! I feel so incredibly helpful right now I could *mental squee*.

“Thanks Applejack, I promise you won’t be disappointed!” I said as I smiled again. I am a liar! I don’t even think I could buck apples if I tried!

We both said goodbye to the others and began walking to the Apple’s farm. Applejack was humming a tune as she walked and I felt completely at ease. No I DON’T! I am completely freaking out right now! But my extremely pessimistic comment aside.

“Kyle, ah’ve been thinkin, why are ya so happy here? Ah just don’t understand how somepony could just up and leave one thing fer another…especially family” Applejack suddenly said to me. That awkward question, not sure if concerned or just curious.

When I heard her say that it took me completely off guard. I fell to the ground on my ass and sat there looking at her. WHY did she ask that? WHAT made her want to?? HOW AM I GOING TO TELL HER WHY I LIKE IT HERE SO MUCH???

“Umm, are you sure you want to know? Not that it is anything bad or anything” I said to her. Oh geez, i have that feeling again.

“Ah’m positive, ah just want ta know what makes ya like it here so much” Applejack said to me.

“Ok, better take a seat this one is gonna be a few minutes” I said to her. She walked over and sat down on my lap! Confound this pony; she drives me to feel mixed emotions! I don’t have that kind of feeling for her, but it is still pretty weird having a pony you like sit on you. But my thought filled ranting aside, back to the story.

“Ok well, back where I came from no one ever really liked me. I mean sure, I had a few friends, but no one ever truly loved my company. I don’t want to go back because even though I have parents that truly love me and I love them, I want to stay here, not just because you all love me, I love you all more” Insert D’AWWW here people. I love getting emotional sometimes, curse me and my abilities to write mushy things!

“Ya love us all that much?” Applejack said, starting to blush a little. I think she has the wrong idea. *Gulp*

I just kept going. “I do. I would do anything to protect all of you from harm; I love you all so much. You all make me so happy when I am around you. I was never this happy when I was back home, I was just living life as if it were meaningless. I had no lover, no job, everything was just dull. But when I came here I was filled with joy I never felt before. Since I have been here I already have a happier life than back home, and I may even have a job! And it was all thanks to the 6 of you” I said to them smiling. I am starting to get a little worked up now, curse my mushy brain!

“Do ya have feelins fer anypony here, I see you always lookin at RD with a funny look in yer eye. Do ya have any deeper feelins fer any of us?” Applejack was asking me.

I was the one to turn red this time. I rubbed the back of my head with my hands and let out a sigh. I was in way too deep to get myself out of now. I screwed up bigtime! I SAID TOO MUCH! I HATE MY QUIRKY TRAIT OF NEVER BEING ABLE TO SHUT THE HELL UP WHEN I SHOULD! I have to tell her now, she already knows too much. “Yes, I do have deeper feelings for one of you. When I am around her, she reminds me of my one friend that from home, always so confident, always wanted to have fun. She was the only friend that I had that was a female” I said as my face turned redder and redder. Please don’t try to guess, I need to still feel like I have at least some privacy! I am having the most awkward moment of my life right now! I want to just roll on the ground and die.

“It’s Rainbow isn’t it? Ah saw the way ya looked at her. Ah knew ya had feelins for her, ya always try ta make her happy” Applejack said to me calmly.

“It is Rainbow Dash. You really are smarter than I thought. If you do tell her, try not to make it too hard for her. I won’t be mad at you if you do decide to tell her” I said as I slumped my shoulders. C-c-c-c-combo breaker! She knows everything now. She stole my privacy, my youth, and my pride. Everything has been thrown into the open. WHY AM I NOT MAD!?

“Ah understand. Ya really do love her, don’t ya?” She said nuzzling up into my neck. I may have just poured out a little too much info, but this is still enough to make me D’AWWWWW and feel like I am going to have HHHHNNNGGG attack. I can’t stay depressed when I am around them, deal with it.

“More than you know. Now can we get to the farm? I want to see if I really have what it takes to work there” I said as I smiled for the first time since the awkward moment. I actually feel better! Not that I am not scared or anything…BECAUSE I AM! It’s just that it feels like a weight has been lifted off of me.

“Sure thing, let’s see iff’n we can’t get ya bucking apples or something” Applejack said to me.

We both walked the rest of the way in silence, I was brooding of course. But applejack was thinking most likely of what I told her. I can’t wait to get this stupid moment out of my head. I want to see if I can work so I can forget everything that had happened.

A/N: Sorry for this chapter being shorter than the others. If you read My Second Life, you would see that his chapters have a big variation in length from one to the next. I am going to start to do that as well, just so I have moar to add to the story. I will be up late tonight so I may even post another chapter after this; I hope you are all entertained. I have to go and thing about what I had just forced myself to write now. Bye!

Next Chapter: 18. My First Freakout/Telling The Truth Estimated time remaining: 12 Hours, 6 Minutes
