My Life As A Stallion

  Maxwell's POV

  I trotted silently through the town of Ponyville.  As I go through this town, I see many interesting things.  I notice a sweet shop, many ponies in a variety of colors, and a ton of colorful buildings.  This place was suprisingly nice looking.

  Anyway, it was time to get back to the mission at hand (Or should I say, hoof.)  I still hadn't found this library.  Not looking where I was going, I bumped into a pony and we fell.

  " Ow."  We both said quietly.

  I got up and observed the winged pony that stood in front of me.  She had a yellow coat of fur, and pink mane, and shimmering emerald eyes.

  She was actually quite the Mare....

  "  Ugh... Sorry."  I managed to say.

  "  It's okay."  She whispered.

  Weird Silence....

  "  Um... My name's Maxwell."  I said quietly.

  "  My name's Fluttershy."  She said almost silently.

  "  That's a nice name."  I complemented.

  "  You actually heard me?"  She asked suprised.

  "  Yeah. Why?"  I asked.

  "  Most people can't even hear me when I say my name."  She replies.

  "  Oh.  Well, can you direct me to um....  Princess Twilight's Library?"  I asked.

  "  Sure!  Princess Twilight's one of my best friends!"  She said slightly louder this time.

  "  Okay."  I said as I nodded and we went off.

           -At the nearby Library-

  Fluttershy knocked her hoof on the door of the library.  I couldn't help but stare at her.  No, I couldn't possibly be starting to fall for this, this..... Pony!  Even if we do share to same kind off character traits, shy and quiet, I could never fall in love with a pony.  Suddenly, the door to the library opened as I saw a small, purple dragon-like thing open the door.

  "  Oh!  Hey, Fluttershy!  Who's that?"  He asked happily.

  "  Oh, Hi Spike.  This is Maxwell."  She said.

  "  Hello."  I greeted as I flashed a smile.

  "  Oh, nice to meet you, Maxwell!  How can I help you?"  He asked kindly.

  "  Well, I'm kinda new to Ponyville, and I was hoping I could talk to Princess Twilight about a book to tell me about Ponyville."  I replied.

  "  Sure!  Twilight!  You have a guest!"  He said.

  "  Okay!"  She replied.

  "  Come on in!"  He said as me and Fluttershy trotted into the library.

  I trotted over to Princess Twilight and greeted her with a smile as well as 4 other ponies.

  "  Hello, I'm Princess Twilight Sparkle, but you can just call me Twilight!  And these are my friends, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash!"  She said.

  " Howdy!  Mah name's, Applejack!"  She said.

  "  Sup'!  I'm Rainbow Dash!"  She said.

  " Hello, Darling! I'm Rarity!"  She said.

  " Hiya!  I'm Pinkie Pie!  I'm a Super Duper Party Pony!"  Said Pinkie.

  "  Hello.  I'm Maxwell."  I said quietly.

  "  Well, nice to meet you Maxwell.  I take it you've already met Fluttershy?"  Asked Twilight.

  " Yes, I have."  I replied.

  "  Okay, so is there anything you need?"  Asked Twilight.

  "  I was actually here to ask if you had any books about Ponyville.  I'm kinda new here."  I said.

  "  No problem!"  She said.

  She levitated a book from the shelve with what looked like magic and placed it in my hooves as my eyes went wide.

  "  This book tells you about Ponyville today!  It's basically a guide with all the building, shops, and lots of things! Hope it helps!"  Said Twilight.

  "  Thanks, Twilight.  I appriciate it."  I replied.

  "  So, do you have a place to stay tonight?"  Asked Spike.

  "  No."  I replied.

  "  Well, you're welcome to stay here!  Spike, set up the guest room!"  Said Twilight.

  " Okie Dokie!"  Said Spike.

  "  So anyway, would you like to be friends with us?"  Asked Pinkie Pie with a hyperactive voice.

  All six ponies stood in front of me, awaiting my answer.  I was shy, and I really wasn't used to making friends but if they wanted to be my friends, I wasn't gonna turn down the offer...

  "  Sure."  I said with a smile.

  "  Yay!"  They all said.

  I trotted over to them as they group hugged me... Maybe.... Just maybe....  Making friends wasn't as hard as I thought.
