Timidwings

Timidwings was slowly flying to a town called Ponyville. He wanted to work at the cloud factory in Cloudsdale, and Cloudsdale was very close to Ponyville. He saw the town in the distance. He was a shy pony and did not want to become the center of attention by landing in town square, so he flew towards the woods.

He set down in a clearing near the center of the woods. The wind slipped through his feathers as he folded his wings. The birds chirped out a beautiful melody. It sounded almost practiced and coordinated. He always loved nature, and he wanted to hear more of this glorious song.

Timidwings listened in and got an approximation of where the song was coming from. He walked closer until he could see the birds, and finally realized that he was not alone in the woods. A pale yellow mare was standing in the sun, waving her hoof in the air and conducting the bird's song.

The pony suddenly suddenly sensed another presence and turned around. Timidwings jumped into a bush and hid. He was shy and wanted to avoid a conversation.

The yellow pony spoke. "Um, could you, uh, come out of, the, um, bush?" Timidwings was suprised. This pony was as shy as he was.

He stepped out of the bush and quietly said: "Um, I'm sorry, you made a nice song, and, um, I wanted, to, um, hear it."

"I'm Fluttershy, uh, what's your name?"

"Timidwings." He told Fluttershy.

"It's, uh, nice to meet you, Timidwings."

She walked past him in the direction of Ponyville. As she passed him, their feathers slid against each other, and he shivered with happiness. He was in love.
