Love Comes As a Surprise

Stuff  like the stuff that just happened, doesn't happen very often. I've been on secret guard for RD. Word got out that I like her, and now everyone is out for her blood. Including WC. I smacked the boxing bag with full force. Smack, hit, punch, kick. It was the only way to get these feelings out of my head. I kept kicking, with coach yelling at me.

"C'MON KEEP IT UP! GET TO A HUNDRED!"

"98...99...100."

I slipped of my boxing gloves, and put on a shirt. I've been doing these training sessions with coach since I moved here. And I've been working even more hard. I better be in shape, because fighting WC, won't be a easy task. He is a head taller than you'll ever be, and can punch like a WWE professional.

  It was about 5:30, and I felt I should be getting home. Saturday night Champions League soccer was on tonight. Arsenal at Real Madrid. It simply could not be missed.

I took my car keys, and made my way out of the gym. The rain crashed down like rapid gunfire, hitting me square in the head. My stomach grumbled in rebellion. I hadn't eaten anything for a good 24 hours.

I made my intention to go straight to Sugarcube corner, or as I like to call it Sugar3 Corner. Maybe a nice soup, or sandwich would do. Then maybe I can get something for RD. Like an apology for the scene sometime ago.

I pulled up my car in the parking lot, slipped out my ear buds. Once you open the door, its like an imaginary wall of scent you walk through. Pinkie Pie was the first to greet me. Her spongy, pink hair looked vibrant as ever.

"WELL HELLO THERE!! WADDYA NEED? A COOKIE?! OH SORRY WERE FRESH OUT!" she pounced. I was glad no one else was here. No one except RD.

"Uh yeah, sure, I'd like a cheese burger." I don't know if they even have that, but I needed something to get PP away from me. I needed to talk to RD. She sat on the far corner, sipping on Dr. Pepper. I sneaked behind her, and shook her to scare her. She acted like she was expecting me, because she just made a simple 'sup' gesture.

"Damn you, Soarin." She spook gloomily as ever, not calling me by my nickname. I felt like a loser.

"Hey. You look sad." I observed. She seemed to crack a smile as she lifted her hood.

"Of course, idiot."

I tried to have a normal conversation, avoiding the event. But she was making it hard. I swear the words just wanted to spill out of my mouth. Something was holding me back. Something.

"Did you see that game yesterday?" She began, as she flipped through her Ipod.

"Yeah, can you believe it? 6-0!? Man, I think Arsene could be better."

"Soarin, I get what you're trying to do, I'm really not an idiot.You're trying to say that you don't like me and you want to be friends again. It's just that now WC broke up with me, you don't want me, who am I stuck with now? I mean as much as I hate love, and shit, I need a BFF.

From her words I have to prove my loyalty to her as a friend.

"Actually...yeah, you got me and I'll always be with you"I said and we didn't talk for a while with her words the silence broke.

"Soarin...I was wondering were you serious other day?You know thing that you like me?"

I stucked by her question what should I say?one of my side wants to say her all truth but my other side wants to forget everything and just be friends with her but I had to decide.

"Yeah I guess...We have been friends for many years and I can't deny that I want to be more than friends with you but for now I'm just confused"I said for the first time I felt heat started to rise to my cheeks.

“Same here Soarin. Right now I am just trying to clear my mind. You know how all the girls are like giggling when they see us together. It because everyone is saying that we are meant for eachother. That is why I dated WC. To break all the rumors.

I stared to her nervous face she was struggling to saying something

"As weeks went by I realized girls where looking at you like you were open for the taking. So thats when my love side won out, I couldn’t let a guy like you go. So I notched up my relationship with WC, just to get you jealous. But you were too stupid to get it. I had to break up with him, and make the first move.”

I tried to say something to comfort her. She looked like a train just hit her. I can’t blame her either. She is probably being made fun of. Spat at. And worst of all, beat up.

Then it hit me. She has been beat up!

“Uh Rainbow? Could you show me your stomach for a second?” I inquired.

“Wait why?”

“Just do it!”

“Ok! Ok!” She slowly lifted her jersey to reveal a tan,  but bruised skin.

“Did he do this to you?!” I interrogated.

"N-No I just fell down to ground badly"she said from her voice I understood she was trying to hide something from me.

"Don't lie to me Dash!I saw how he angry was when you were running out from cafeteria!"

"Well...yeah he hit me but you don't have to worry It's fine and it was my fault I was the one tricked him".

“But he HIT you. I don’t care what you say right now! He HURT you!And I'm gonna show who is the boss!” I was steaming mad now.

I stormed out of the restaurant, going back to the gym. Where WC would be and If I find him I was going to give him a lesson about Rainbow Dash.
