Fluttershy wipes a few stray tears from her face as she starts to calm down. “Oh that’s nice of you to say, but it’s not like the pony of my life will just walk through the door.”

“Now Fluttershy, don’t be like that.” Twilight tried her best to calm her friend down. Out of all the things she knew, dealing with a ponies love problem was something she had NO experience in. All she could do was just let her cry it all out.

Fluttershy wiped the last of her tears off her face. “I……. I think I need something to drink, excuse me Twilight” she quietly walked away from her friends.

She didn’t know what to think, she had always wanted a very special somepony, especially on Hearts and Hooves day, but she had always been too shy and timid to ask, and no colt would ever ask her because she was so distant with most ponies. Oh how she wished that just for once she could be able to talk to somepony of the opposite gender without losing her voice or running away.

BUMP

“Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t see you there.” They both said. She looked at the other pony she had just bumped.

“It was a colt about her age. He had this large and stocky orange body and short well-kept dirty blonde hair. Taking a quick peak at his flank, she saw the three strips of haybacon cutie mark. He looked up and stared at her with his glimmering, beautiful blue eyes.

She had just bumped into the one. The only other pony she would ever truly love. She had just bumped into Krispy.

“Are you okay?” Krispy asked the pony. He looked at the shivering little yellow mare. Was she nervous? It was hard for him to believe that such a beautiful creature could ever have any sort of confidence issues. He tried again. “Hi, I’m Krispy” he lifted up a friendly hoof for her.

Fluttershy tried to say something. “H-H-H-H……mmmmmm” she squeaked. Her heart was racing as she tried and failed to produce anything more than a squeak. “I-I-I-I-I’mmmmmmmm” she stuttered.

A look of concern grew on Krispy’s face. “Are you okay?” he asked, he then got an idea. “Hey would you like some punch?”

“He’s offering me punch” thought Fluttershy.“Oooo Fluttershy, don’t ruin this, you want this to work. Remember, be confident.” She gave a nervous, crooked smile and slowly nodded.

“Okay this is good, this is good” he turned around to the punch bowl to pour her a glass of punch.

Fluttershy couldn’t help but take a look at his finely tuned flank while he was turned around. “Oh, my” she whispered as she admired his behind. She quickly averted her eyes back to normal as he turned around.

“Here you go” he said as he hands her the punch. She does her best to balance it with her hoof, but she ultimately loses her grip and drops it. “Oops, sorry” Krispy quickly apologizes.

Fluttershy’s entire body began to shake nervously as she begins to tear up again. “Oh no” she sniffles. “I’m so sorry!” she cries as she runs away from the mess. However in her haste, she did not notice her hair clip falling out of her hair.

Krispy picked it up from the ground and looked up. “Wait!” he said, though it was hard to talk; he had to use his mouth to pick up the hairclip. But it was no use, she was long gone. He felt like a complete idiot, he had just scared off the mare of his life, and he didn’t even get her name! “Stupid, stupid, stupid!” he muttered as he tucked the hair pin in his tail for safe keepings.

He tried to find the scared mare, but he was soon blocked by a rainbow maned pegasus.

“Hey! What’s your problem pal?” Rainbow demanded. “What did you do to Fluttershy!?”

“I didn’t do anything to anypony” he told her. “I was just getting her a glass of punch, and then she dropped it and now she ran away.” He was speaking as calmly as possible to the enraged pony. “You’ve got to believe me.”

Rainbow dash just stared at the orange pony, trying to see if he was lying. After a few moments that felt like decades she finally spoke. “Fluttershy does get scared pretty easily” she finally sighed.

A look of relief rushed on Krispy’s face, happy that the pegesus had believed him.

“But know this” her voice had turned very serious. “I’m watching you…. Even when you think it’s safe, I’m always watching you” she began to fly away backwards, never breaking eye contact. “Watching you……..”

In the Mares bathroom of Sugarcube Corner, a pink pony was sitting hunched in the corner balling her eyes out.

“WHY DOES EVERYTHING I LOVE HATE MEEEEEEEEEE!” Screamed the over-dramatic Pinkie into her hooves. Two streams of tears pouring like waterfalls from her eyes. “IT’S NOT FAIRRRRRRRR!!!!”

Just there is a knock on the door. “Pinkie Pie?” are you in there?” asked a familiar voice.

“LEAVE ME ALONE TWILIGHT!” she cried. “AND LET ME BE IN HERE WITH MY SHAAAAAAME!”

Twilight sighed on the other side of the door. “Pinkie come on, your acting ridiculous.” She thought to herself before speaking again. “Your acting worse than Rarity did when-“

“RARITY!!” scowled Pinkie, the very mention of her name filled her with rage. “THAT OVER-DRAMATIC, SELF CENTERED, STUCK UP, DAUGHTER OF A MULE!”

“Pinkie Pie!” Twilight shouted, shocked at the things the party pony was saying. “How can you even think of such awful things? Rarity is your friend” she slowly entered the bathroom to find a wreck of a Pinkie Pie.

She began to tear up again. “Oh I know, I’m being such a meanie-bo-heamie, b-b-but it just that she seemed to like Ink Spot so much! A-a-and I like him so much! A-a-a-and I wish she didn’t like him so much! A-a-a-and I just love him sooooooooooooooo much!” she lifted her face up from her hooves. Her usually pink face was beet red, her perky cheeks were stained with salty tears, her normally joyful eyes, watery and broken. Even her puffy mane and tail seemed to have deflated. She turned to ask her friend a question. “Twilight, do you believe in love at first sight?”

“It depends on the pony” Twilight responded.

Pinkie let out a little sniffle. “Well Ink Spot was the one” she moped.

Twilight sat on the ground beside the distressed pony. She patted her on the back and smiled. “You really do love him, don’t you?” she asked.

“Twilight, you have no idea” she said before looking to the ground with her sad expression. “But I guess it’s too late now.”

Twilight had had enough of this. “Pinkie” she spoke with a strong, and demanding voice. “It’ never too late, it’s like I told Fluttershy, you are an amazing, talented, and unique pony, you just have to make him see it.” she turned her friend’s head towards her. She was getting good at these little pep talks. “So tell me Pinkie, are you gonna just sit here and let him slip away?” she looked to her friend, her tears were beginning to dry off.

“No” Pinkie whimpered.

“What was that?” Twilight demanded.

“No” she said a little louder.

“What was that!”

“No!”

“WHAT WAS THAT”

“NO!” screamed Pinkie Pie, and just like that, she was back. Her face seemed to magically clean itself, her mane and tail puffed back to their normal state, and her blue eyes burned with a new sense of determination. “Thank you Twilight you’re a real good friend” she began to head out before turning around. “Twilight, those things I said about Rarity….”

“Already forgotten” the purple unicorn assured her friend.

“You forgot? How did you forget that already?” she asked. She then realized “OOOOOOOO I get it” she gave a little laugh and a wink before heading out the door.

Pinkie knew exactly what she needed to do. She scanned the party room for her special pony, finally spotting him next to the muffins table, talking to Derpy. Quickly, she began her decent towards him.

Ink Spot spotted her walking towards her. “Hey Pinkie, sorry about earlier, I was just-“

“Shhhhh” she hushed the cleaning pony. “Don’t speak, now’s not the time for speaking.”

Confused, Ink Spot responded. “What do you-“he began, but his words were muffled by the Pinkie’s hoof.

Pinkie put a hoof on each side of his face, staring lusciously into his yellow eyes. “You have a pretty mouth.” She said before diving in for a kiss.
