Today was Hearts and Hooves Day in Ponyville. A day where everypony goes around and enjoy the beautiful day of birds singing wonderful tones throughout the air with their very special somepony. Most ponies in Ponyville would go to Sugarcube Corner to gather together and have a splendid time with their special somepony.
In Sugarcube Corner, Button sat on a table by himself playing away at “Ponycraft” the game. He had his chocolate smoothie in front of him, but was too busy start drinking it. He got to a point where he saved and turned off his game. He looked around at all stallions impressing their special somepony with chocolates, flowers, and other gifts.
Button raised an eyebrow and stared at his smoothie. He wanted to drink but deep down inside he wanted to offer it to his special somepony. His Mom demanded that he go out of the house for an half hour of fresh air, but he wanted to play his game. So instead of playing outside he figured Sugarcube Corner would be the best place to play. Since there were a lot of grown ups around him he didn’t have to worry about some foal stealing it from him.
“Arrgh, I should be playing at home. This is so borrring,” Button looked over at a clock that was set right above the entrance of the bakery. He sighed when realized only ten minutes had passed from when he left the house.
“Oooh man! Why does it have to be so crowded today? Yeah… I forgot,” he pulled out his game again and continued from where he had last left off. After a few moments of playing, he slowly slouched in his chair, sighed, and looked out at all the couples who were sitting and french kissing all around him.
“Eww, blaah kissing? Lame. I’m gonna head home now…” Button trotted off to the exit when the Sweetie Belle entered. Button stood and stared in awe as Sweetie Belle swayed her mane and looked at him with her adorable green eyes. She then smiled and sent him a wink. His eyes widened, the propeller on his head spun and his ears shot up.
She slowly closed the door and trotted closer. Button’s body stiffened.
Dammit, Dammit, what do I say, howdoIsayit?, Darnitall, why am I such a dunce, he thought still watching as Sweetie Belle came closer. His heart started to pound madly. Not wanting to act like more of a fool, he stared down at the ground and blushed.
When Sweetie Belle trotted to him, she galloped right passed him without saying a word. She continued over to the table where Button last sat. He then trotted to the entrance wiping the sweat from his face.
“Phew, that was close. Alright, now to get on home. I could really-” he turned around looked at Sweetie Belle as she was about to sip his chocolate smoothie. He extended his little hoof as best he could, his pupils shrunk.
“Noooooo!”
He ran back to her saying in slow motion, “My smoothie! Nooooo!”
He jumped into the air soaring over to save his smoothie but was too late. Right at the moment he was about to grab his smoothie, Sweetie Belle quickly turned sucking away at the smoothie holding it in her hooves.
Button crashed onto the wooden floor on the other side of the table, and some couples glanced at him but quickly averted their attention back to enjoying themselves. A tear came down his cheek. He sat on his little haunches, his ears flopped down and he then stared at the floor. His reflection mirrored onto the shiny floorboards.
“I swear. I hate this day...”
Upon watching Button crash to the ground, Sweetie Belle rest the chocolate smoothie onto the edge of the table and quickly came to his side.
“Are you alright, Button?” she stared at him with an expression of concern.
“No, I’m not!” Button frowned crisscrossing his hooves.
“What’s the matter?” Sweetie Belle began to frown.
“You drank my Smoothie!” Button raised his hooves in the air and glared down at her.
“Well how is that my fault! Isn’t that you’re fault for forgetting it on the table? Besides it saved me the work of having to wait for a smoothie drink,” she continued to frown.
“Well I don’t care anymore. I going home!” Button turned around sharply huffing about and bounced his head right into the table. The glass of chocolate smoothie tipped over and landed right on top his head.
Button eyes widened, and his left eye began twitching as the chocolate began to run down his body.
“Darnit! Mooooooooooooooooooom!”
“Okay, you really disturbing the couples here. You two, outside now!” Mr. Carrot quietly gestured to the entrance while glaring at them. Button and Sweetie Belle walked to the entrance.
“You just had to blow it didn’t you?” Sweetie Belle raised to him an eyebrow of disapproval. Button began huffing at her.
“Hey Sweetie Belle, you finished your drink!” Scootaloo hovered off the ground and fell to the ground on her belly afterwards.
“C’mon we got some crusadin’ to do,” Applebloom turned and trotted off.
“You’re the one that caused this and because of you I’m out of my peaceful zone. I hate you. You hear me?” Button frowned and held out his hoof towards her. Sweetie Belle turned, stood on her hinds and stuck her tongue at him before leaving off with her friends.
Button became infuriated but then confused. She seemed so beautiful to him in that moment that his anger towards her quickly vanished was replaced with love.
Before he started on home, he checked his game to make sure nothing was wrong with it. His pupils shrunk, and his left eye started twitching.
“W-wha… no… no…” Button tried pressing the controls harder and faster. But the game caught fire, and he quickly dropped it onto the ground. He then took off his hat and looked up to the skies with his pupils on fire.
“Sh@#!”
