Love Is Not Blind, It`s Cross-Eyed

Chapter I: The Question

Derpy Hooves was a nopony, as far as she knew. She was nothing but Ponyville`s bumbling, cross-eyed mailmare. That was what she thought before she discovered something else about life...

Pinkie Pie knew everypony in Ponyville. She was a friend to everypony, & everypony was a friend to her. She was perfectly content with it, but when she found out some things about Derpy Hooves`s past, she took it upon herself to make the mailmare happier than ever.

"Hi!" Pinkie shouted, causing Derpy to fall back on her haunches in surprise.

"Oh, its you. Whats up?"

"Not much, I just wanted to talk to you. I`ve got a super important, extra-special question for you."

"What is it?" Derpy asked, rubbing the back of her head.

"Why do you live in Ponyville? Wouldnt you live in Cloudsdale, since youre a pegasus?"

"Well, thats a really long story. I dont want to bother you with it."

"I want to know. Come on, tell me!"

"Fine. Come with me." Derpy beckoned to the pink mare, walking towards her house.

The two mares sat in Derpy`s kitchen, a plate of muffins sitting between them.

"So, you want to know about why I live here?" The grey pegasus ensured.

"Yeppers! Every little bit of it!"

"Alright." Derpy exhaled before continuing.
