Going the Distance

It had been a week since we had all been in school, but if you asked me, it felt like one long day. To my surprise, the days were going by fast, and it had to do with her. Every time I talked to her, my heartbeat would run wild and I would automatically work up a sweat like I had never before. The most I had done to this point was introduce myself and talk to her about five times in that one week. When we arrived for the next week of school I couldn't get my eyes off her. It wasn't perverted either, it was a look that was respectful and awe inspired.

"I can't stop thinking about her, she is just too amazing. What do I do?" I whispered to Blaze as I still gazed at Sweetie Belle. He turned to look at me, but found me caught in what appeared to be a trance castes by her. He grabbed my head with his hooves and faced it toward him.

"Well, how about you two have lunch today? That should grab her attention don't you think?" He suggested as I felt my eyes slowly trying to get back to my angel.

"Me..........and her.......l-lunch?" I nerviously replied to Blaze. He shook his head and I felt my stomach turn. I looked back at her to see her talking with Scootaloo. I tried to swallow my nervousness but it wasn't budging at all. I looked back at Blaze and he had this hope for me in his eyes that I could actually go up to her and still have an actually chance with getting her to say yes.

"Well, what do you think? Go up to her and ask her to sit with you during lunch, it's that easy." He said to break the silence between us both. I looked over at her again and just took a deep beath in and exhaled as my eyelids slid half way down my eyes. Suddenly I snapped back into reality.

"I can't do that! She seems to good of a filly to waste her time with a pony like me." I replied as I looked down to the floor. My friend just started laughing. What could he be laughing about? What was so funny for him? I looked up at him confusingly. He stopped laughing and put his hoof around my back.

"Here I'll walk you through it. You go up to her and just start up a conversation and after you two get to talking just ask her what she plans to do during lunch and then ask her if she wants to spend lunch with you. It's as easy as 1,2,3." He assured me as he looked over at her. I looked too and I decided that I could ask her to just hang out with me during lunch. It couldn't be that hard?

"Ok, I'll do it. It should e easy right?" I weakly replied to Blaze as I started to sweat just at the thought. Just as the teacher released us to a five minute break, I walked up to talk to her as I normally did.

"Hey Sweetie Belle. How have you been?" I said to her to spark up some sort of conversation. She looked up at me with a smile.

"Hey Morning Mist and I've been good, thanks for asking." She replied with a smile. I couldn't get over how gorgeous her smile looked as I was struggling to say something back to her.

"So um...I was wondering if you are doing anything, you know, special for lunch today?" I asked nervously. I was a wreck as those words fell off my lips. I was almost shaking. All this sensation, over a pony named Sweetie Belle. It made me question how she could make me have this cauldron of different emotions all at the same time. She looked surprised that I had asker that. She looked down for a second, then back up to me.

"Um no I don't think I am. Why do in ask?" She replied in a weak tone. My face lit up as I asker her the question.

"Well I was wondering if you wanted to hang out during lunch today? That's if it is ok with you." I said to her. The words flew out of my mouth so fast that I thought I would mess up on what I was saying. She let out a short giggle and smiled. That made me want to laugh at how cute she was being.

"Yeah, I wouldn't mind to spend lunch with you." She replied with a smile. Just as she responded, Scootaloo was calling her over for something. She turned to look at her and then back to me. "Well, I have to go. I'll see you at lunch. Bye." Sweetie Belle responded. She then came towards me and hugged me. I almost jumped back. I was filled with immense joy as she did this. I hugged her back and when we finished, I looked over at Blaze and he was smiling. Class was dragging on and lunch was taking forever to reach. It seemed like it would never arrive. Then, the bell sounded and everypony was going towards the door. I waited and walked over to Sweetie Belle's desk and there she was, still beautiful as ever. She stopped and noticed me standing near her desk. I smiled awkwardly and I could feel myself sweating. She grabbed her lunch and walked up to me as I moved out of the way and let her walk in front of me. Just as we went outside, two other ponies were waiting for her to come outside. When we got close to them, I could hear Sweetie Belle let out a sigh and roll her eyes. It was Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon.

"Well, well. Look who it is. It's Sweetie Belle. Why don't you go hang out with your other friends that are freaks and have no cutie mark?" Silver Spoon said. I looked at her weirdly. She was insulting my angel. My eyes grew wide.

"Yeah, why are you even wasting your time with her Morning Mist?" Diamond Tiara asked me. I looked over at her and gave her a mean stare.

"She is a very nice pony and doesn't need low lives like you two to ruin her day so why don't you two just take a hike! Her not having a cutie mark is actually a good thing! She isn't restricted to doing just one thing. She can become good at anything she sets her mind to! I'm actually jealous of her so just back off!" I said to the, as I stood in front of her. I stared at them and waited until they left. When they did Sweetie Belle walked in front of me and smiled.

"Thank you so much for that, I have never had a pony stand up for me like that. I really appreciate that Morning Mist." She said as she gave me a hug. I smiled and looked down at her mane.

"Well I had to, they were gunna mess up this awesome day we were about to have." I replied as she looked back up to me. Her smile was so innocent and amazing, I loved it. She was making me feel like I had never felt before. It is just simply an amazing smile I could never forget. Even with all this only one question was in my head during the whole lunch we spent together. Does she love me as I do her?
