Los Pegasus College
Chapter 32: Twilight's Bookshelf
Previous Chapter Next ChapterYour eyes opened slowly, looking around and seeing you were in a foreign place. What you remembered was that Luna missed your fist and punched you in the general mouth area... You were rushed to the nurse by her and then you passed out because of the red tooth. But what you didn't know was where you were. Where the hell am I? And why am I being poked on the shoulder...?
"Are you awake?"
"Yes, I'm awake. Now why am I in a dark room?" You answered back, standing up and jamming your hip against a wooden table, "FUUUUUUU-"
The girl flipped a light switch, as told by a flick. A light on the ceiling brightened and illuminated the tiny wood cylinder that seemed to be a private library. You turned while grasping your hip, seeing Twilight smiling at you with her glasses off, which is unusual.
"What's this place, Twi?" You questioned.
"It's my bookshelf!" She clapped her hands together excitedly, giggling and putting her hair in a ponytail.
"This is a bit big to be a bookshelf."
"It's a nickname, idiot." Twilight started climbing up stairs, motioning you to follow her, "I heard you played a prank on Principal Celestia. You cruel jerk."
"Hey! It was the girl who knocked out a tooth of mine's idea!" You defended yourself, stepping upwards.
"Oh. Then it's fine." She sat down at a desk and pointed to the other side, which had another chair.
"Love you too." You growled and rolled your eyes, sitting, "Why am I here?"
"I want to chat." Her smile grew, "Like... Alleys?"
Bad memories hitting n-... HNG.
"What about alleys?" You wiped a sweat bead off your forehead.
"Murderers in alleys?" She coughed, "You told me about Dash almost getting murdered in an alley... I know why."
"You do?!"
"Indeed." Twilight's hand slipped into a folder, where she pulled out a picture and slid it over to you. There was a school name on it, and you gasped at knowing that the school was Los Pegasus College's arch enemy, "Seuss."
"Oh my Celestia. That college went to extremes to try to murder a student?!" You stared at the picture of 'Seuss', flabbergasted.
"Seuss was told that if she could kill the star athlete, her school would be the top. She tried." Twilight shook her head and put away the picture, "Let's get onto a happier topic. Such as a walk in the park?"
Your emotion represented confused, "As a date?"
"No! I-" She blushed wildly, "Just to chat!"
"I'm only joking Twi. I'd be glad to go on a little walk." You stood up and started following the nerd out of her 'bookshelf', laughing as she plucked a book from the desk.
The snow was melted and the roads were clear, it being a sunny day in town. The foliage was green as ever, flowers colourful and bouncy. The purple haired girl beside you pointed out a patch of grass that was dry, and plopped her derriere down into it. You did the same thing, yawning.
"So how are you today?" She said while taking off her black sweater to rest her head on it. This revealed that she was wearing a one-piece magenta jumper.
"I lost a tooth. I'm good." You looked up at the clouds, seeing a book, "Look! It's your best friend!"
Twilight looked at you and frowned, "My best friend is my brother."
"Pshh- BAHAHAHAH."
"Don't laugh! He was my favourite person in the world when I was younger! Then he married my babysitter and I barely see him anymore..." She closed her eyes and slowed her breathing, "I wish I could see him. Just for a minute. Cadence, his wife, is a Chemistry teacher."
"So you're basically lonely? I thought you had Spike?"
"I do have Spike, but he's not as close to me as my big brother, you know the feeling?" She slowly turned her body towards you.
"Kind of." You paused and looked at Twilight, "I never noticed how you aren't just a big nerd. You have a life outside of school and reading."
"Well duh. I love reading and everything, but it's not my entire life. For example, I like volleyball... And figure skating." She giggled, "I know I don't have the shape for skating, I'm no hourglass."
"Oh Celestia, now we're talking about your body shape, are we?" You were awaiting the wave of self-conscious words that were gonna come out of Twilight's mouth. She has a perfectly fine body to you, but she'd just swipe away the compliment and whine.
"Only if you want to, I'll change the subject... Like how perfect Rarity is?" Her eyes instantly flew open, a sigh coming out of her.
"Twilight. What are you doing. Twilight. Stahp. You're beautiful."
"Really? Because I think my hips are too skinny- Argh. Topic change! Want to go back to my bookshelf?" She got up and tied her jacket around her waist.
"I guess."
The door swung wide open, and Twilight hopped onto a railing... Sliding down to the floor below. She landed on her feet like a cat, then waiting for you to do the same. After you got yourself onto the railing like Twi, you tumbled down and slammed into a couch.
"And I'm called a klutz." She giggled and helped you up, pulling you onto the couch with her.
You had a thought of what Twilight said earlier, and you put your hand in her pocket to search for her cellphone... Only getting a slap from her and a growl, "What do you think you're doing?"
"Getting your phone. Why don't you have it?"
"I have it. Just somewhere people wouldn't steal it from." She reached into her shirt and pulled out her phone, making you gasp and have a look of disgust. You took it from her and shook your head at the sheepish girl, opening the heated electronic.
After running back into Twi's dorm, you scrolled through her contacts. Luckily, she barely had any. You found 'Shining Armor' and clicked it. You quickly sent a text to him, pretending to be Twilight, and he responded instantly.
[12:00] You: I'm really lonely, can you come over? We haven't seen each other in a long time.
[12:00] Shining: Sure Twiley, can I bring Cadence?
[12:00] You: I'd love too see her too!
[12:01] Shining: Be there soon.
You sneaked into the bookshelf again, throwing the phone to Twilight. She turned her head to it a few second after it hit the ground, and she plucked it up to stuff back into her shirt. What was strange is that she had no questions, she just flicked a button on a remote for the TV she implanted in a wall. She switched it to a sport channel and looked over to you.
"You boys like your sports. So here it is." Her body went from vertical on the couch to horizontal, her feet on your lap and her head on the arm part of the furniture. She eventually fell asleep, you paying attention to the game.
Only ten minutes later did you hear a knock on the door, making you stand up and Twilight jump up from the scare. She lazily walked to the door, opened it, walked to the other door and opened that. Her reaction to who was there made her act like Pinkie Pie on a sugar high. Who are we kidding, Pinkie Pie's always on a sugar high...
"SHINING? CADENCE?" She group hugged the male who looked nothing like her... And the tall, thin woman with yellow, pink and purple hair, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
"You messaged me to come over..." Shining looked confused for a second before he smiled lightly, like his wife.
Twilight turned to you and had a humongous smile, "Thank you, I called him earlier today, and he didn't respond, so I gave up... Who knew he would be available at lunch? Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"No problem, I'll let you and your family have some peace. Glad I helped you reunite. I feel like a... Guidance counselor or something." You shrugged at laughed at the possibility of you being a counselor.
"That spot's already taken at this school. Anyways, I'll see you in class? I'm going to have lunch and I'M BUYING!" Twilight shouted the last part with all her might.
"Twiley, I'll pay for the food." Cadence showed Twilight her wallet, which must've been full because the zipper wasn't closed all the way. Chemistry teaching pays a lot.
"Fine." Twilight and you walked out the door together, and separated to let her go the opposite way with brother and sister-in-law.
You glanced back at them and adjusted your jacket, pulling where the zipper cord would be on each side together, proudly. Then, you would've pushed the two sides away from each other if you could... But you were laying on the ground rubbing your head at the some impact with someone else. You helped up a pale hand and looked at the owner of the hand, who bit her lip and looked ashamed of something. Fluttershy shouldn't be ashamed of... Locking you in a dumpster... Maybe she should.
