Applebloom is suddenly hit with a crush, a normal occurance for little ponies her age. But theres a twist--it's on a filly! In a society where fillyfooling is looked down on and treated like it doesn't even exist, there can be horrible implications if anyone finds out the truth of Applebloom's strange feelings towards a certain purple-tinted grey unicorn, Dinky, a new friend she makes at School with a glum past. With the help of some familiar accepting ponies around town including her faithful friends, sister Applejack and brother Big Macintosh and other likeminded ponies, maybe she can survive the harsh judgement of everyone else, but who will accept her and Dinky? Who will be less accepting? And what will they do about it? (Warning: Starts rather slow and upbeat but will get sadder in later chapters.) Read on, as crushes, opinions and cutie marks are found, but the cost of a little filly's crush may tear apart the town...
