Previous Chapter Next Chapter*Sweetie Belle POV*
"AND MAKE IT EXTRA SPARKLY!!!!" Sweetie screeched ecstatically. Rarity gave Sweetie a look like she was saying "Seriously?" Sweetie jumped around the entire work floor.
"Sweetie..... Don't you think you're.... overdoing this?" Rarity asked, a worried look on her tired and stressed face.
"Nope!" Sweetie exclaimed, continuing to hop around the shop.
Rarity rolled her eye's and grabbed her sister, pinning her on the ground. "Calm down! You're knocking stuff over!" She yelled.
Sweetie rolled out of her sister's reach, giving her a confused look. Rarity once again rolled her eyes and sat on a nearby sofa.
"Look darling, I know this is your first date and all..... But you don't wear a fancy gown at a movie theater!!!!" Rarity said, turning away. "I found that out the hard way....."
"Please Rarity!!!"
"No..."
"PLEASE!!!!"
"NO...."
"PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!"
"NO!!!!!!"
"PRETTY PLEASE WITH COTTON CANDY ON TOP!?!?!?!?!"
Rarity face-hoofed herself, realizing if she was gonna get Sweetie off of her back..... She had to make her SOMETHING. Rarity looked up at the determined filly. She still couldn't believe that her own sister was going on a date! A DATE!! It was miraculous! It was surprising! IT.... WAS.... DRAMATIC!!!!
"Ugh.... If I make you something will you leave me alone?" Rarity whined.
But before Sweetie could answer, there was a knock on the door. Sweetie jumped into the air and ran all the way to the door. She thrust it open and jumped on top of the unexpected visitor. "HI PI-!!! Wait..... Button?"
Button blushed red and looked up at the filly. "Um.... hi?"
Rarity walked out of the boutique and smiled at the two. There was a hint of passion on her face, as if she knew everything. "So, is this the Pip you keep talking about?"
"RARITY!!!" Sweetie shouted, looking strait at the mare, anger and embarrassment emitting from her now scrunched up face.
"Um.... no miss..... My name's Button...." The gamer colt mumbled.
Rarity smirked at the young boy. "And what is it that brings you here?" She taunted, obvious to what was going on.
Button blushed intensely and jumped out from under Sweetie, who front flipped up and smashed into the ground.
"I-I-I...... I JUST W-WANTED TO V-VISIT!!!" He stumbled over his words. Rarity laughed and opened the door wider.
"Now's not a good-"
"PLEASE COME IN!!" Rarity exclaimed, interrupting her sister.
Sweetie Belle rolled her eyes and followed Button back into the house.
[5 minutes earlier]
*Button Mash POV*
It was a clear and sunny day, something Button rarely saw since he was usually inside with his video games.
But today was a special day. He actually enjoyed being outside, another rare concept. Maybe it was the fact he was doing something he wanted to do. Maybe it was the fact that Button was visiting a friend. Or maybe it was the fact that he was visiting SWEETIE. He didn't really know. All he did know was that his heart was thumping out of his chest.
He wanted to go to the next level with Sweetie Belle. But, he was reluctant..... It was like beating a big boss in one level in a game, then realizing that there was a level AFTER that..... Which would be even HARDER to defeat. He couldn't just walk up to her house and be like "Hey I like you!" Or "Yo I lurve you!" Or maybe "You make my world better each time I see you!" No.... that was cheesy.... he wanted to make it subtle. Than if Sweetie freaks out.... he can come up with a solution. Which is why he chose the phrase "If you were a Pokemon.... I'd choose you!" It was a stupid pun, but it implies something romantic. And if Sweetie starts to freak out he can always say: "I meant that as a FRIEND sort of thing!" Because the phrase can also mean friendship. But still..... when he finally reached Sweetie's little boutique, he was hesitant about knocking on the door.
"Come on Button..... You can do this....." He said to himself reaching out a hoof to knock, but he quickly jerked it back. "No I cant!!!"
"Yes you can!"
"No I can't!!"
"Yes you can!"
"NO I CAN'T!!"
"YEESSSS YOOOOUUU CCCCCAAAANNNN!!!"
"Who are you talking to?"
"I am talking to you!"
"What?" He exclaimed, realizing that he was arguing with himself. He was glad that nopony was around to hear that.....
He reached his hoof out yet again.... and knocked softly on the door. Who knew that would be his death statement?
Suddenly he saw a flash of white burst from the door. The flash crashed into him, causing him to tumble backwards, the flash on top of him now. He blocked his face, bracing for impact.
"HI PI-!!! Wait..... Button?" A high pitched squeaky voice said. That was the moment Button realized that SWEETIE BELLE WAS ON TOP OF HIM. Her soft fur lightly brushed his stomach, causing him to blush beet red. He looked up at the beautiful creature. It was obvious that she had been putting on and taking off makeup for hours. Though... she didn't really need it.
"Um.... hi?" Button uttered.... searching for words.
Before he could say anything else, a white unicorn with dark purple neat curls for hair appeared at the doorway. She smirked at the two, eyeing Button. ~Oh please tell me she didn't notice me blushing.....~ He thought, quickly blocking his face with his hooves.
"So, is this the Pip you keep talking about?" The mare asked. ~Pip? Who the heck is Pip?~
"RARITY!!!" The foal above Button screeched. He couldn't help but looked at Sweetie Belle. Her face was scrunched up at a point that was indescribable, her cheek's a slight tone of pink. He gazed up at the filly, smiling a bit.
"Um.... no miss..... My name's Button...." He mumbled, deep into thought. ~Am I really gonna do this? It's just some stupid girl! One .... pretty...... nice..... adorable.... stupid girl...~
Rarity, noticing the gaze from Button stated: "And what is it that brings you here?"
Button's blush darkened as he snapped back into reality. He quickly looked at the mare, who looked as if she might start a giggling fit. ~DAMN IT SHE NOTICED!!!!~
He jumped up and out from underneath Sweetie, who was tossed up and fell down, hitting the ground.
"I-I-I...... I JUST W-WANTED TO V-VISIT!!!" He stuttered, glancing back over at Sweetie, who which seemed slightly annoyed.
Rarity finally let her laughter out into a loud giggle. She pushed the door open all the way as if saying "Come on in!"
Sweetie Belle, now standing, looked annoyingly at Button. "Now's not a good-"
"PLEASE COME IN!!" Rarity interrupted.
Button gulped and slowly trotted inside the building, Sweetie following closely behind.
Button's eye's opened wide as he looked all over the place. It was HUGE compared to his home! It didn't even LOOK like a house!
"Nice place! Where's the maid?" Button asked, receiving a chuckle from Rarity.
"We don't have a maid..... just a really clean dressmaker with OCD....." Sweetie said, receiving a growl from Rarity.
"I DO NOT HAVE OCD! AND DON'T POKE FUN ABOUT THAT TYPE OF STUFF!" The mare shouted, turning away from the the little filly.
Button couldn't help but guffaw at that. Rarity smirked once again, turning back to the two, as if she was plotting revenge.
"Well, I have to work on Sweetie's...... clothing item..... Why don't you head upstairs?" Rarity said, staring into Button's sole. Why didn't she just do her evil laugh already? MWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
"Zaykaliff......" Button mumbled under his breath in Humgonian.
~*~*~*~
"So this is my room...." Sweetie said, walking alongside Button into the tidy room. The bed was draped in blue and green, the walls purple and a small toy box against the wall, with a vanity on the other side of the room.
"I kinda switch houses with my parents and my sister... you know.... so I can visit her?" Sweetie continued, plopping her self on top of her bed.
"Oh look at that a train!" Button exclaimed, dashing over to a small train set.
"Yeah.... I was thinking about giving that away..." Sweetie muttered.
"Are you kidding?!? Train sets are AWESOME!!" He rolled the toy train across the floor, before the train BURST INTO FLAMES!
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Sweetie screamed.
"Oh come ON!!!! That's the SECOND time this has happened!!!" Button yelled, grabbing a nearby glass of water and extinguishing the fire.
Sweetie sat on the bed and Button did the same. "Well..... at least I don't have to worry about the train set anymore......"
"Yeah......"
They sat in an awkward silence, as if Sweetie expected him to continue talking. But, before he could continue, he noticed a small, suspicious notebook on the vanity. He quietly slid off the bed and trotted over the mysterious notebook. "What's this?" He asked, before being shoved out of the way by a deranged filly.
"NO!! YOU CAN'T READ THAT!!!" She screamed, grabbing the book and squeezing it tight. Button raised and eyebrow at this behavior. Then he smirked looking Sweetie into the eye.
"Ohhhhhh..... Is that your *ahem* DIARY....." He taunted, causing Sweetie blush.
"N-no.... it's my..... songbook" She whispered. "I've had it for a long time..."
Button looked at the shaky filly, holding the songbook as if it were a baby. "You can..... r-read it..... if you want..... I haven't showed it to anypony..... but I think you.... might like it...."
Button smiled and sat back on top of the bed. Without making eye contact, she slipped the notebook into Button's hooves. The front was decorated with "My Songbook" in fancy Purple letters on a light blue background. Button flipped through the pages..... It was like a diary.... but explained in song. Sweetie smiled weakly and flipped to a random page. "This is my latest entry" She muttered, pointing to the writing quickly scribbled onto the page. "I'm not exactly familiar with notes and stuff..." He said, looking at the page next to it. The other page had notes and time signature's to follow up to the lyrics.
"Well.... I can always sing it...." Sweetie grinned, grabbing the book. She sighed and sang the slow song with passion and feeling.
(I DO NOT OWN THIS SONG.... THESE ARE NOT THE ORIGINAL LYRICS...... Regina Spektor: Eet)
[This is meant to be SLOWER that the original.... also no music break with only the instruments..... since this is meant to be sang with no instruments]
It's like forgetting the words to your favorite song.
You can't believe it; you were always singing along.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to feel the beat.
Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-
Eet eet eet.
Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-
Eet eet eet.
You spend half of your life trying to fall behind.
You're using your headphones to drown out your mind.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to get out of your seat
Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-
Eet eet eet.
Ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-
Eet eet eet.
Someone's deciding whether or not to steal.
He opens a window just to feel the chill.
He hears that outside a small boy just started to cry
'Cause it's his turn, but his brother won't let him try.
It's like forgetting the words to your favorite song.
You can't believe it; you were always singing along.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to get out of you seat
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can't remember; you try to feel the beat...
Button stared at Sweetie the whole time. He was in a daze. The fillies voice was crystal clear and right on point. It was almost as if bells were ringing in his ears.
Sweetie noticed his gaze and blushed. She closed the songbook softly. "Yeah well...." She said at a loss for words.
"Your voice is very pretty.... You know that?" Button asked.
"No... it's not..... I probably sound like a choking dolphin." She stuttered.
Button laughed to himself. "Chocking dolphin? Where did you get THAT from! Your voice is amazing!"
Sweetie smiled and giggled. "You know Button..... I have never met a colt like you..."
Button smiled widely. ~Now's the perfect moment for my terrible pun!!~
Button gulped. Suddenly, he felt a lot more nervous. "I....uh.... I...... Um.... You know Sweetie.... If you were a-"
"SWEETIE BELLE!!!!!!!" A VERY dramatic voice SCREECHED from downstairs. ~Great... Moment lost....~
"What Rarity?!?!" Sweetie asked, slightly annoyed.
"Hello? Date? Getting ready? Your *ahem* OUTFIT...... Ring any bells?" Rarity called from downstairs. ~Date....?~
"OH MY CELESTIA I TOTALLY FORGOT!!!" Sweetie screamed, heading for the door.
"Erm...... Sweetie Belle?" Button muttered.
Sweetie stopped in her tracks. "Oh sorry..." She said, turning around to face Button. "I kinda.... sorta... have a date.... with Pip...." She slowly uttered from her lips.
~Have a date with Pip, Have a date with Pip, Have a date WITH PIP~ The words echoed through Button's mind, as if they were cold knives stabbing at his heart.
His whole world screeched to a stop. He could feel all the happiness and determination drain from his essence. He felt cold. He felt alone. He felt betrayed.
He felt..... heartbreak.
"Um... Button are you alright?" Sweetie asked, concerned about the pure look of torture on button's face.
Forcing a smile he looked up at Sweetie. "I'M FINE!! I'm... uh... HAPPY for you!! I-i just.... HAPPY!!" Button said, quickly poured excuses out of his mouth like waterfalls.
"Well.... Ok...." Sweetie mumbled, turning to the door.
"Sweetie Belle would you hurry u-" Rarity yelled, until she got close enough to see Button's face. "Oh....."
"Erm.... Sweetie Belle! Why don't you uh..... Go look at that outfit I made for you! On the um..... SHOP FLOOR!!!" Rarity quickly said.
"Ok?" Sweetie said, now confused as ever. But, she obeyed her sister's order's and walked out of the room and downstairs.
Rarity walked from her spot in the doorway and sat in front of Button.
"Look..... I know what your going through...... I gave you a chance today, because I knew that you needed one..... I know you like her a bit more than a friend...... But... she does like this other colt..... and there isn't anything I can do now...... But don't worry...... It WILL get better....." Rarity reassured, putting a hoof on his shoulder.
"I'm fine..." Button snapped, sliding her hoof off of his shoulder. "You have no idea......" He mumbled.
"Oh darling, YOUR the one who has no idea! I've read every romance novel there is!" Rarity exclaimed. Button gave her a look which said: "Irrelevant."
"Oh.... heh heh...." Rarity laughed nervously as Button started towards the door. "Like I said..... It will get better..."
As Button made his way down the stairs and out of the boutique, he grumbled to himself:
"Yeah right....."
