Do you remember your first crush? Wasn't it just so magical?
At last, Sweetie Belle, kid sister to Rarity, has managed to get her life together. She finally has her Cutie Mark, her parents have returned from an extended tour of Equestria, Rarity's business is taking off and not stopping, and now that she's entered high school, She and her fellow Cutie Mark Crusaders are some of the most popular fillies in school. Yet, this all leaves Sweetie with a terrible void. The admiration of her fellow classmates seems hollow to her and Apple Bloom and Scootaloo are starting to go in different directions in their lives.
For reasons she can't explain, she has never felt more alone. It may just be the hormones of being a teen-aged filly, but it might also be that she hasn't found that special somepony. When a new colt arrives from the backwater villa of Hollow Shades, she discovers a new tide of emotions she never thought she had. Is it love? Is it lust? Only time and tide will tell…
This is the first in a series of one shot stories I have planned called The CMC Chronicles. Each one-shot will feature one of the Cutie Mark Crusaders as they take the most dangerous of quests: high school! I'm marking this teen for some clopping and vulgarity. (Sweetie will swear like a sailor, let me tell ya!)
