A Winter's Rose
Chapter 33: Chapter 33. How to train your Pegasus.
Previous Chapter Next ChapterToday, like most day's, I woke up at five in the morning and did; Two thousand wing-ups, one thousand push-ups, five hundred sit-ups, five hundred trot-steps, thirty minutes of intense yoga, and did a one hundred kilometer flight. All in the span of two and a half hours. I'm am not sure how I can do all that, I never really thought about it as I usually just zone out listening to music.
I figured that it was just a montage because I listened to music and the world is influenced by music. So I gave up trying to understand that logic and focused on more important things like; Why is my body so slim and has curves in all the right places when I should be a fucking tank?! Alas, I will never know, but I do know that the colts of the school named me,’The hottest pegasus of the school,’ with Summer at number two. ‘Sorry Summer, there can be only one!’ That boost of self-esteem and ego was just what I needed to keep on doing what I love, and that's looking sexy.
Summer finally told me why she was following my daily routine today, and it was exactly what I thought. I couldn't help but laugh that she thought she was fat, and needed a tough daily regimen to slim her down. Well, it did for the most part. She did lose a bit of weight and was much sexier than before she started. Her plush flanks were a bit firmer now, giving her that zesty booty that I just want to nibble.
After laughing at her self-consciousness, I told her what Spitfire told me about weight: ‘It's all about the calories! Eat too much and you will gain a pound, but eat too little and you will gain a ton. So long as you eat healthily and drink lots of water and stick to a good routine to burn off your daily calorie count, and you will have the body you’ve always wanted.’ She, of course, didn't understand the ‘ton,’ note.
I had to explain to her that her body will think she was starving and try to hold onto as much as it could to survive. Then she freaked out and asked me how much she should eat and a crap-ton more. I sighed in annoyance and face hoofed respectively before I told her to just, ‘eat the average and add a little more, and you will be fine.’ This calmed her down for the most part and after wasting our time on the field, we went back to the dorm and had a shower.
Breakfast was fairly quiet. I had a bowl of, Sugarland Sweet-Wheats, with a cup of coffee while Aria had french toast, Maple had pancakes, and Summer had eggs and hay-bacon. Since it was Sunday, all of us decided that our living room was pretty empty and needed some improvements. Maple had the right idea to add a few bookshelves for our board games. We needed a place for them other than having them lying on the floor to be stepped on.
Summer wanted a movie projector and Aria wanted a sound system for music. I, like the mare I was, wanted a video game machine. All three of them looked at me like I was the chosen one and bowed down to me and my epic idea, before leaving me behind to get their things without asking if I would need any help. Summer was the only one to return as we were still chained together for seven more days.
Summer and I left the dorm together after I finished my breakfast. As we walked out of The House of Seasons, I saw Blue and the other's hanging out in the courtyard underneath a tree, talking like they were best buddies. All I could do was look at them, wondering what would have happened if I didn't hurt them. 'Would we still be friends? Would they have listened to my side of the story without making any assumptions?' Such questions plagued my mind as I would never know.
Summer and I walked together in relative silence down the red-brick road as trees gave us shade to protect us from the sun with wind blowing softly around our forms, sending a slight chill that was welcomed. I watched as Summers sunset mane blew gently in the breeze, making it look like a cascading waterfall of the evening colors. I felt my heart rush as I just realized that we were going to town...Together...Like a couple. I blushed at the thought and looked away before she noticed that I was staring at her beautiful mane, and pushed aside the thought that we were going out on a date. 'Like that will ever happen.'
‘If only I could tell her how I feel,' I mentally sighed as we passed the main gates to the campus grounds.
We walked together to a small shop called, ’Color Projectors and Game Machines.’ Aside from the stupid name, it was rather close to the campus and had a nice and friendly feel to it. The building had two floors in the odd Victorian style that was Canterlot. The top floor had a sign that was a merge of a game machine and a movie projector in a weird gold color. Beside it to the right a lingerie store, while to the left was an art supply store. ‘Talk about strange for a city design.’ Happy that we both can get our stuff at the same place, we walked in to get our loot.
Inside was what you would expect; Game machines against one wall, projectors against the other and everything else in between. We both set out to get our stuff, which ended up with me trying to choose between; PacPony and Alley Fighter IV, while Summer grabbed the most expensive projector she could find and waited for me to make a choice. Long story short, I chose all of them. After we paid for our stuff and had them delivered to our room, we decided to get lunch after I stopped in the lingerie store to buy some black lace since I gave my only set to Spitfire. Summer, of course, waited outside.
“I don't understand why you would waste your money on such lustrous apparel,” Summer said as we sat outside of a Mc Hayburgers. I was eating a triple Mc cheese with super-sized hay fries and a large Sparkle Cola while Summer had a fish sandwich with a strawberry milkshake.
“You make it sound like it's a bad thing?” I said taking a sip of Cola. “Well, it frankly is,” she said waving her hoof to add emphasis. I just rolled my eyes and inhaled my burger, causing Summer to stare in disgust.
“Well, the way I see it, a mare has to have options for any and all bedroom activities,” I said waving a dismissing hoof. “Since I like mares, as a lesbian, I have to be ready for all fantasies that my mare likes,” I explained as I began to devour my hay fries. She just gave me a frown at the information.
“So, does that mean you have any mare's that you like?” she asked, causing me to choke on my Cola.
“O-Of course I do! I...I, Ah...Crap,” I blurted out without thinking before I hid behind my drink with a slight blush. She gave me a sly grin and moved my cup, revealing my flustered appearance. “Well, since I basically told you about my crush with Jade. You have to tell me who your crush is,” she demanded. Like a deer in headlights, I couldn't move. ‘Should...Should I tell her?’ I thought as my face turned redder than my cup of Cola. ‘Should I tell her that she is my crush and I really, really like her? That she makes that annoying itch go away?’ I asked myself as Summer gave me an evil grin, wanting to know who I liked.
“Well, spit it out already!” she almost shouted, causing my wings to flutter in response. I gulped and prepared for my rejection.
“I...I like y-you,” I whispered so quietly that she had to lean closer. “What was that? I couldn't hear you,” she said. “Can you say it again?”
“I-I l-like you…” I whispered a bit louder in a meek tone. She frowned at me, clearly nor hearing a word I said. “Is still can't hear you and if you don't speak up, I'm going to throw out your naughty underwear,” see threatened. I gulped again and spoke a little louder, slightly afraid of what she was going to say.
“I-I...l-like y-you, S-Summer,” I stutter-blushed and waited for her to get up and leave and never want to see me again, but she didn't. Instead, she backed into her seat blushing as red as I was. She looked away from me. We stayed quiet in awkward silence as we finished our food and watch ponies walk on by. Neither of us knew what to say nor when to go. Thankfully, it was Summer that broke the silence. I don't think I could say anything to her after that.
“S-So,” she began stuttering stupidly. “T-This is sorta like a d-date then?” She asked. “Y-Yeah…” I replied. “S-So, d-does this mean w-we are going o-out then?”
‘Wait...She...Is she giving me a chance?! Does she think we are actually on a date?! Sure we are going having lunch at a restaurant and not trying to kill each other anymore. S-Should I see if I can make it official?’ I thought as my mouth didn't like working anymore.
“D-Do y-y-you want to g-go out?” I finally asked. Summer's wings fluttered for a moment before she spoke again. “I-I would like that,” she said, giving me a heart attack.
“S-So...Want to head back or do you want to hang around some more?” I asked regaining my cool. “I wouldn't mind hanging around,” she said sheepishly with a sweet hearted smile. Which caused my heart to explode twice from cuteness overload.
⚢》~☾♡☽~《 ⚢
Dear Diary.
SHE SAID YES! OH SWEET LUNA'S MILK THAT IS MY; BATHWATER, SHOWER, FOOD, AND NECTAR. SHE SAID YES!
Today is the happiest day of life!
After my daily regimen of self-harm, all of us decided to get some things for our living room. Aria went and got a huge surround-sound system for our living room which can vibrate the entire building like a small earthquake had hit the area. While Maple got a couple of bookshelves as well as some more questionable games to add to our pile. Summer had her color projector set up to Aria's sound system and we bought a bunch of movies. I, on the other hoof, bought a video game system that strangely resembled an NES with a few games, which was also hooked up to the projector and sound system, but that's not the best part.
Summer and I are going out! Like as in ♡Girlfriend and Girlfriend!♡ I always thought that she would utterly reject me and never want to see my face for even thinking about that, but that fear is now gone. What's more awesome was that she was thinking about asking me out! Me! When she told me that, all I could do is *squee* with joy that she was going to ask me out but she didn't know how. When I asked her about Jade, she said that he gave her a funny itch and believed that it was her heart telling her that he was the one. When she realized after the whole, ‘Note of doom,’ thing was over and after a talk with a mare named, Kind Heart. She learned that the itch was actually telling her that he was bad news and that ponies that don't cause the itch were good news. 'Which I was glad to hear. Fucking magic, Y U NO MAKE SENSEROO.’ Anyways...After that revelation, she tried to find a pony that didn't give her the itch and learned that only; Aria, Maple and I, didn't give her it and since we were a bit closer together than the others, she would try to see if I would be interested in her and to her happy surprise, I was and more.
We basically spent the entire afternoon talking about school and what we wanted to do afterward. We decided to leave ourselves out of it for our first real date next Friday after school and clubs to go see a see a movie. Which was fine with me.
Once we were all done making our living room all nice and stuff. We played a round of Street Fight while we ate pizza before we all turned on a movie. It was about this wolf and a filly that was going to die if she didn't get medicine. The filly living in an arctic town and the town didn't have the medicine she needed. The only way into town was by train, but the train was buried in snow. So the town had a dogsled team to go and do the mission.
'It was Balto. Fucking Balto. I don't even…'
After the movie, we all went to bed in our rooms. Summer went to her room and not mine, unfortunately, but I understood. We both had some things to sort out about each other so...Yeah…Midna was my teddy bear tonight. I still can't believe that Summer and I are going out now! But there is the issue with Aria and Maple as they both have asked me if they could join a herd. As much as I am willing to push aside what nonexistent traditional values I have about that, I just want some alone time with Summer for now.
