Twilight's Past

I moved my hoof into the air, shaking in the wind. I can't do it. I just can't blame her like this.. Ugggg..

Hesitating, I finally found myself knocking on the Apple Family's' door. And I wasn't surprised when I saw who opened it. There she stood, the one who stole my marefriend. I would despise her, but all in all, she is my friend.

"H-Heya Twi-l-light." she stammered nervously while moving her hoof around on the inside of the doorway. "D-Didn't expect to umm.. see you here... Because.. Well, you know.."

"I would not expect myself not to come here, under the circumstances." I sounded very professional, at least, I think I did. Outside, I looked strong, brave, and confident. Inside, my walls were crumbling in embarrassment, and depression.

Wait.. Should it even matter considering I'm talking to a farm pony? Well, it is Applejack. If I talked like nothing was wrong, she would think something was up. Wait.. She knows something is up.. Because something is up... Ugg.. Why does this always have to be so difficult?

"M-My side of the story?"

"Yes. I believe it would not be right to blame you without knowing your side of the story first." I stated, poofing out my chest a little. Great... Now I look like a stallion..

"Well... Ah guess it's alright if you know... Not much else could go worse.. C'mon in, but we have to go to my room. Ah don't want mah  family hearin' 'bout this. They know so little of what happened.." she said as she opened the door and led me to her room.

I stepped inside the doorway, as she sat down on her bed. "Well, aren't ya gonna c'mere and sit down?" she teased, but ending in a blush. Sometimes I wonder what goes on in that pony's head of her's.

Quietly, I stepped fully inside the room, shut the door with my magic, and plopped myself on her bed.

"It's not Rainbow's fault, and it's not your's either." she started. It kind of sounded like an apology. "It's all mine. I should of known Rainbow was with somepony else, or at least would of thought it would never work out between me and her, because we are both fighting over who the best of whatever and whatnot." she sighed to me.

"At first, when I first asked her, I didn't know a thing about you two. I didn't even know ya'll yet.. But I did see something when I asked her though.."

"What was it?" I asked with interest sparkling in my eye.

"She sounded all surprised like. More scared than anythin' else. Like she didn't want to say no to me, because it would of been rude in her opinion, but more like something was holding her back."

"Then what made her choose you?"

"Ah still don't know. Ah think she was trying to please me, and after I found out, I realized she was tryin' to please you to, sugarcube." she said with another sigh as she fell backwards on to her pillow. "Like she didn't want to disappoint either of us. You know that mare doesn't like makin' decisions."

"Yea.. She really doesn't.."

"Anyways, ah didn't find out until our second date. When she told me, back then, me and you didn't know each other back then.."

"You and I-" I tried to correct her, but she just ignored it.

"But, no matter who ya are, nopony deserves to be cheated on. So, I was the one who convinced her to either dump me or break up with ya'll, because at least then she wouldn't be cheatin'."

"YOU told her to break up with me!?"

"I said choose me or the other mare."

"But that's still asking for her to-"

"What 'bout you sugarcube? When are you gonna make your decision?" she ignored what I said. Yet again.

"What decision?"

"If you're gonna forgive her or not."

"I don't know.. And since you didn't know originally, I guess I can forgive you.. But it's going to take a while to get used to you again.. But I do know one thing.."

"What's that, sugarcube?"

"That Rainbow likes to please everyone."

"Well.. More like she can never choose between one friend or another.. Anyways, I gotta go help buck some apple trees.. Are you gonna go see Rainbow?" she asked as she walked with me out of the room.

"N-No. I think.. I think I got to go visit Pinkie and Fluttershy.. I really have to know more about what they think of all this.. Rarity.. Well, I kind of have to wait on her."

"Well, I'll see ya soon then, Twilight."
