The bubbly filly and the straightforward colt

Previous Chapter

I was skipping happily from school, humming a sweet melody that I once heard Fluttershy singing. Suddenly, I stopped when I saw a crowd gathered. I sank down through the floor and popped back up in front of it. I saw an Earth Pony colt bullying a Unicorn colt. The Unicorn colt had green hair as bright as grass and a black coat of fur, his eyes the same green as his mane. The Unicorn just stood and said, "You know, violence isn't the answer to anything." The Earth Pony simply laughed and said, "I like violence...gets the anger out..." Cherry glitched, her eye twitching, and she reappeared in front of the unicorn. Her face grew angrier and she yelled at the bully.

"Hey! Pick on somepony your own size!" I then turned around and bucked him in the face. He stumbled and fell, his muzzle bleeding. I turned again to face him, and gave him the stare. He simply stuttered as he said, "Y-you d-d-don't scare me!" But the unicorn trotted up next to me and said flat out, "The puddle of piss under your hooves says otherwise." The bully looked down and saw he had indeed pissed himself. He looked back up at me, and I smirked as I said, "Now go tell your mama that you picked a fight with the wrong filly."

The bully turned tail and ran, and I turned to the unicorn with a smile. He said to me, in a bray-tish accent, "You know, I could've taken care of him myself, but thanks anyway for the help." I grinned and grabbed his hoof and shook it excitedly, replying with, "No problem!" I then let go and asked, "So, what's your name?"

"My name is Ink Well," he replied. He then asked, "And...by any chance, can I get yours?"

"My name is Cherry Berry! Thanks for asking! I can tell, we're gonna be great friends!"

I then pulled him into a hug as he said, "Well, I do suppose I owe you that for helping me."

"Great!" I shouted cheerfully. I then nuzzled his neck and skipped away, back on the path home.

"Did...she just...nuzzle me?" He asked, bewildered by my actions.
