Dry eyes

Once more they all sat there on their flanks; the loud sound of silence consumed them all, but this time no one spoke up because he had no cutie mark, it was hard to choose a name, nor would it be smart ponies names coincide with their cutie marks, they didn’t know how it all worked just how it was.

“I don’t think we can” said Apple Bloom with a defeated look after about 30 minutes of silence. “Well at least we know that we can’t get our cutie marks there,” she had a faint grin trying to look for approval in the young colt’s eyes but…nothing. By this time they were no longer in town but in the CMC headquarters.

"But...but I need a name. I need something," said the colt; the water works started back up but Scoots walked over to him and sat next to him. She used a wing to pull him closer. He finally found that warm embrace he was searching for; he nuzzled up against her a bit more before he stopped crying. It was getting a bit late and Apple Bloom heard her sister calling for her.

"Ok girls I have to go but I’ll see ya'll tomorrow and bye to you to mister" Apple Bloom ran off.

"Well I guess I should be going too, Rarity must be worried sick about me," Sweetie Belle said this in a fashion mocking her older sister. "Um...Scootaloo you still coming over to my house tonight?"

She looked a little panicked for a second "Um...Um... no sorry my parent won't let me tonight, they will let me any other time but we are doing something tonight, probably for the next couple nights," She said the last part looking at the colt next to her, he looked pretty sleepy he was still nuzzled up on her.

"O...K...well I’ll be on my way then, bye mister bye Scoots" Sweetie leaves leaving just her new colt friend and her old mare friend. They both lay there.

The colt or mister then speaks up "Don't you have to get home um... Scoots?"

"See this is why I try to leave as late as possible I-I... don't have a home or family I live alone... like you" tears in both of their eyes started. "And the only pony that knows about where I live is..."

"Fluttershy," they said this simultaneously they looked at each other tears fading with a slight smile from both.

"How about we go to Fluttershy's tonight?" the colt continued "she will be glad to know the news."
