Chapter 1

Fluttershy slept in her bed, warm and cozy. The moon's glowing rays shined through Fluttershy's window, dust particles were visible in the light, and silence was left to be heard. It was serene. While Fluttershy dreamt peacefully, Angel struggled to rest in his own sanctuary. He shifted side to side repeatedly. Frustrated, Angel walked out of his shelter and hopped inside the cottage. He hopes Fluttershy could help him with his problem, she's a caring pegasus after all.

Through the darkness, Angel quietly hopped upstairs towards Fluttershy's bedroom. He slowly pushed the door, creeeek, it sounded. He navigated through the room to find Fluttershy's bed where Fluttershy herself will be sleeping. Using the shine from the moon as light, he found the bed. With enough but not too much strength, he jumped on top. Fluttershy turned to the left, facing Angel. He didn't hesitate, he poked Fluttershy on her hoof. She hummed and faced upwards. Angel frowned, he leaped on top of her chest he poked her again, on her muzzle this time.

Fluttershy opened her eyes. The sight of Angel made her smile, weakly. She stood up, rubbing her tired eyes, and yawning silently and somehow gracefully. She saw Angel's face, which looked tired and struggled. She laid her hoof on his head.

"Is there something wrong, Angel?" Fluttershy worriedly asked. He nodded yes. He started to act out his problem; he put both his tiny hands by the right of his head, he closed his eyes and snorted. Fluttershy slightly understood, she tried stating the obvious.

"You can't sleep?" Angel nodded yes, again.

"It's okay, you can sleep with me tonight, if you want to" Angel hopped once more next to Fluttershy, he made himself comfortable. She weakly smiled, once more. When Angel found a relaxing position, Fluttershy started to sing.

"Hush now, Quiet now...It's to lay your sleepy head. Hush now, Quiet now... It's time to go to bed...", She closed her eyes as so did Angel. She went back to her solace sleep.
