     The school bell rang. I placed my text books on my desk as I dusted off the dust in my chair with my tail. I groaned as Diamond Idiot sat in her desk next to me, batting her eyelashes all innocent-like and giggling to herself.

     "Why hello there blank flank." she smugly told to me.

      "Why hello there buttface." I said back as I tightened my bow up in my red mane. Silver Spoon stalked behind me as a sweat rolled down my back, like I always do when someone is just watching me.

      "Applebloom, why such rude words? It's not our fault that you're too stupid to get a cutie mark." she teased.

      "I don't think she even tries" Diamond Tiara scoffed.

      "Will you two just leave me alone already? Why do yallz give a crap about me anyways? Isn't there something else you two twerps could do?" I asked.

     The bell rang again for the second time as Cherilee walked into the classroom. "Hello class! We have an important lesson to get to!"

     Diamond Tiara raised her hoof "Um, like, Miss C! Are we still learning about algebraic integers because I left my homework at home!" she yelled.

     "Quite alright, Diamond! Because we're going to learn about something different today!"

     "Thank God!" I muttered to myself.

     "We're actually going to learn some more about Hearts & hooves Day, just as last year! But first, I need you fillies to meet our newest student! This is Butter Toffee! He's from Manhatten, and is related to Pinkie Pie! He's working the afternoon shift after school at Sugar Cube Corner! Now Butter, why don't you pick a seat... right... um..."

     Diamond's eyes quickly brightened as she quickly shoved me out of my desk.

     "What in the hec-" and then SHOVE as my head banged onto the floor and my papers flew everywhere. Everypony was laughing.

     "Like, Miss C! Here's an empty desk right here!" she yelled.

     "Thank you Diamond. You can go sit there next to Diamond Tiara and Silver spoon, Butter." Cherilee responded as he quietly trotted over to my desk.

      I then got up, "Oh, Applebloom, don't you have a seat?" I looked at her.

      "I-I-I u-u-um y-y-you see-"

      "You can sit in that back seat over there!" she responded as she pointed her hoof at the old jacked up desk in the far right side corner of the class room. I gulped as my fellow fillies snickered, especially DT & SS. I quietly pondered to my new ugly desk.

     "Alright now class, let's get on to our lesson!". I grumbled. I hoped that I would never get to sit in the jacked up desk back here. At least I was closer though to Scootaloo & Sweetie Belle. Maybe things won't be SO bad.

     "Now class, who can remind as all what's Hearts & hooves day?" Everypony raised their hoof.

     "Let's see... ummm... Diamond Tiara? Can you remind us what's Hearts & hooves day?" Diamond Tiara smoked on her catchy smile and giggled softly as she said "Hearts & Hooves day is the day where ponies do something special with their very special pony!".

     "That's right Diamond! Hearts & Hooves day is all about that someone special in your life!" Cherilee announced.

     "I already found MY someone special..." Sweetie Belle whispered to herself as she kept her eyes hypnotized on Butter.

       "Alright class, this year, we're going to dig a little deeper into hearts & hooves day! Oh, and class, did you know that some ponies can get cutie marks from hearts and hooves day? Every Hearts & Hooves day, some ponies discover their cutie marks on their flanks. These are very special cutie marks, because they are matched into a holiday. These cutie marks all resemble, love, kindness, and lots and lots of hearts! You could get cutie marks from being a matchmaker, or the master flirt! Or maybe by showing kindness, or the love to your family, because remember! Hearts and Hooves day is also about kindness to the people you know! Friends and family too!" Cherilee announced, "In fact, our school was going to have a special Hearts & hooves day dance, but I'm afraid it has been canceled!" The whole class moaned. "I'm sorry kids, it's just that the Equestrian Economy just doesn't give us enough bits these days to-"

     "HOLD ON!" Diamond Tiara interrupted loudly, as she then flashed an innocent smile as she walked to the front of the classroom, "The dance is back on my fellow fillies! We can like, totally have the party at my house! After all, daddy is the richest pony in ponyville and can totally afford such a big party like this one! May I Miss Cherilee?"

      Cherilee stared at her and smiled, "Of course you can, Diamond. All right class! The dance is back on at Filthy Rich's mansion!" The class cheered.

     I moaned. It was great, just great, not only do I have to deal with the annoyance of a Hearts & Hooves day dance, but now even worse, DIAMOND TIARA is hosting it! And she's JUST the most snobby, insecure, overgrown spoiled brat that roamed ponyville. I turned over to look at Scootaloo & Sweetie Belle. Scoot looked like she was sick, but of course it's normal because she hates mushy stuff like this, and even more hateful DT & SS. But Sweetie Belle was actually CHEERING with the rest of the class, yet staring at Butter at the same time.

     I was shocked! "Now class, open up your text books to pg 890, and please welcome Lovestruck! Who is here to tell you fillies the history of her very flirty cutie mark! Welcome Lovestruck!" The class clapped as a light pink pony with hot pink hair and eyes as neon green as if they were contacts!

     She took a deep breath as she started to speak, "Hello kids! I'm Lovestruck! And I want you all to take a good look at my cutie mark! It's a pink bow and arrow with hearts all around it! I got it from helping out my friends with their special someones! Not only did I show kindness, but I showed the loving spirit of the holiday by helping out friends get the perfect colt for their life! This also shows a lovingly flirta-"

      "Psst!" I heard somepony whisper in my direction as I turned to Sweetie Belle.

     She passed a piece of paper onto my desk as I opened it carefully and read it to myself, "Meet me at the clubhouse after school, I have an idea for our cutie marks!" I looked at her as she looked at me with a sly grin.
