Chapter 1: The Tomato Vendor

One Saturday morning, I met someone I’ll never forget; Dr. Whooves. I know it probably seems stupid to just be walking down the street and meet someone fabulous, maybe a bit famous. That’s because I’m the opposite of pretty, smart, or talented. I’m weird, stupid, and have deformed eyes. It’s really weird to be cross-eyed, because nothing is what it seems like. Maybe Whooves is really ugly, and wears braces, and always wears cheesy rock shirts, but maybe he’s really cool. Maybe he really likes me.

I was just walking down the street, trying to find Pinkie Pie because I needed to buy a balloon for my mail delivery system (don’t ask why). Then, because of my cross-eyed complexion, I was accidentally talking to a tomato seller.

“Hi Pinkie, umm, I needed a balloon but I wouldn’t find you. So, can I have one of those red ones you seem to have so many of?”

The tomato seller looked at me and raised what I supposed was his eyebrow, and then said,

“Hey kid, you gonna buy a tomato or what?”
“Excuse me? Pinkie, I like your new voice. How come you have tomatoes? They aren’t exactly party stuff.”
“You stupid little mule! Get out, or buy one!”
“Pinkie, don’t-”
“Hey derp, the Mayor is coming right now, and you either buy one and boost my business or I accuse you of stealing all these,” he motions to the tomatoes.
“Pinkie, what’s going on with you? You couldn’t do that!”
“MAYOR! This worthless citizen of Ponyville has stolen half of my tomatoes!”

The Mayor started walking towards me, and asked,

“Is this true?”
“No!”
“Because this stallion is a senior of this town! If you are lying, I might as well arrest you!”
“But-”
“She’s not lying!” screamed a voice from behind me.
The Mayor and the tomato vendor were quiet as I heard the stallion behind me stand up for me.

“She didn’t do anything. This stallion just wants you to arrest her for getting confused! She thought this vendor was her friend, and that’s not her fault. Everypony makes mistakes. Now will you please apologize to this fine mare?” he asked the tomato vendor.
The vendor shook his head.

“How do we all know he’s not lying too?”

Now the Mayor knew something was up. She walked away, and gave the vendor a I-have-my-eyes-on-you look. I sighed, and I think I was as pink as Pinkie Pie after the stallion said that. I couldn’t stop blushing. Then he took my hoof and said,

“You okay? I can help you find your friend if you want. I don’t exactly need these tomatoes; especially from these kind of vendors.”
“Thanks. no, really. I just don’t know what went wrong with me. I’m stupid, don’t worry. I don’t need that balloon anyways.”

But he still said,

“Follow me. I have red balloons at my house. It’s right down the street, don’t worry.”

I knew that I was feeling something for him, and maybe vice versa. Then, just as we neared his house, and he opened the door for me, I hugged him and whispered into his ear, “Thank you,”

“No need to say so,”

Author's Note

Please note that we know that this FanFic is not logically correct. It's just for entertainment, if any of you are looking for an alternate ending to Whooves's and Derpy's love story.

Chapter 3: Derpy Bucking Season

"Ummm... That was awkweird."
I knew, that once again, my face was PINK. Whooves was just looking at me and my crossed eyes. How could anypony look at me so long? I felt stupid. I was stupid. I didn't know what to do, so I tried to escape. I tried to fly but remembered we were in a house so I didn't go very high. Then I ran in the direction of the door, but Whooves grabbed me by the torso. I kept blushing but then i kicked his face by accident and rolled onto the floor, stumbling. The scrambled up but one of my hooves caught on the television wire and I just tripped again. Whooves was rubbing his cheek while I shyly waved and walked out the door. The last thing I saw were his eyes, lovestruck. I felt wonderful.

Then I walked straight into a tree.

"You okay darling?" I heard a fancy voice inquire.
"What do ya think?" I muttered.
"Let's get you a fancy dress, it should cure you up! Good thing they sell them at Carousel Boutique!"
But I was off before I even got to see the dress.

I walked farther into Ponyville, careful not to bump into anything or mistaken anypony as one of my friends. I tried not to, but I couldn't stop thinking about him. Nopony sticks up for me like that. But he did. Why did he? Because he likes me, right. I can be so stupid sometimes. No, all the time.

"Argh!" I shouted, not meaning to have said it out loud.

I started walking again, but I accidentally ran into Princess Twilight.

"Oh! Sorry Princess Twilight!"
"Umm, thats okayy, Derpy."

Twilight's to-do list had unraveled and Spike was picking it up.

"Thats okay Derpy." said Spike.

After bumping into Twilight, Derpy was extra careful not to get near anyone else. She flew up high and sat at the entrance of her house.

"I can't do ANYTHING right!"

Derpy tore a piece of cloud out off a cloud.

"I can be so stupid! Why does Whooves even like me? Maybe he's stupid too."

Derpy paused and then smiled.

"I guess thats why we're totally, completely perfect for each other."

She then flew from her house and headed towards Sweet Apple Acres.

"Applejack?" asked Derpy
"Applejack?"
"Huh?"

Applejack was apple bucking the tree that Derpy landed on. She bucked Derpy right out of the tree, along with 5 apples. Derpy shook her head a few times, and grabbed one of the apples.

"This will do! Thanks Applejack!"

And Derpy was gone.

"What in tarnation was that about?"

Derpy flew all the way to Dr. Whooves' house. She knocked, and he then opened the door.

"Package for Dr. Whooves?" she said and smiled slightly.

She reached into her saddlebag and pulled out a zap-apple.

"And who's it from?" Whooves asked, knowing already who it was from.
"Hey Derpy? Why don't you come in?"

She walked in and they sat on the couch.

"Whooves, Im sorr-"

But before she could finish, his lips touched hers. Just like last time, but better. And this time, she went with it. No struggle, no escape, she just went with it. And at that, she put the apple back into her saddlebag, thinking of nothing but the stallion sitting right next to her on his velvet couch.

Chapter 4: Klutzy But Lovely

Dr. Whooves and I were there for a while, just doing nothing and acting stupid. We would just like, tell a dumb joke and laugh like dumb ponies. Then one of us would roll off the sofa and hit our head on something on the floor, and the other would laugh, and then the other would laugh too. I know, it was weird. But it was... I don't want to sound all gushy and girly, but, it it was also... it felt good. It felt good to have Whooves right there, kissing me, loving me. Nobody had ever loved me as much as he had before, even if this crazy relationship had been around only a day old. I mean, I didn't exactly remember my parents, cause when I was small, I had my eyes too crossed, and I don't remember what they looked like. When I got eye surgery to make them a bit better, my mom was already dead, and my father had left us when I was still a filly. But they hadn't exactly loved me anyways, since they left me and died. I mean, my mom didn't have the power to keep living, but she could have at least lived until I got my eye surgery!!!!!

"Derpy," Whooves muttered. Well, that's what it sounded like he said. My head was feeling hazy.
"Whooves..." I gasped between a kiss.

Whooves stopped, and stroked my mane. I was feeling girly and I thought I was going to go crazy for Whooves, and not be able to do anything else. But I just laid back down on the sofa, and Whooves kissed me as I laughed at something stupid he had just said. I think he had said, "Chicken fence," or something dumb. I just laughed and rolled off the sofa.

"Ouch!" I cried, hitting my head with a table leg. I rubbed my head. Then Whooves helped me up.

"Thanks," I said.
"I'm a big klutz, as you can see." and I laughed a little to lighten the mood.
"Derpy, I don't think you understand."
"Understand what?"
"Derpy, you may have deformed eyes, and you may be a little clumsy, but thats what I like about you."
"So....... if I was normal you wouldn't like me?" Derpy giggled.
"Derpy! You are beautiful! Even if you don't look like every pony else you are beautiful. Inside and out."

Derpy had no words. She had no response for the words that had just been said to her.

"Derpy, I love you."

Chapter 5: A Trip of Problems

I looked up at Whooves. I gazed into his eyes like I was in a trance. I shed a tear, and Whooves wiped it with his left hoof, and held me with his right.

"I love you too." I said
"Derpy, you don't have to say it to spare my feelings."
"No. But its true. I love you Doctor Whooves. And i knew it from the start. I just, I just, I just,"
"I understand."

I closed my eyes as he brushed through my mane with his hooves. I truly loved this stallion. He understood me, and he didn't judge me. Later, after we had dinner, It was time for me to go home. I didn't want to leave. But I had to, it was getting late. So I kissed him goodnight and I flew home and slept with a grin on my face.

For the last few weeks, I'd been coming to his house every day like I did that day. We would watch movies, talk, and do what couples do. But one day i came and knocked on the door, but no pony answered. I then saw a note on the door.

"Dear My Little Derpy,

Im sorry I didn't tell you in person, but I will be away for one week in Canterlot, for a medical emergency. Do not worry about me, I just wanted to let you know where I am. I will come back in one piece, and I expect you to be in one piece as well. I love you Derpy :D

-Whooves"

I took the letter home and put it up on my wall. I wanted something to remember him while he was away.

The next day I went to Cherilee's schoolhouse for career day, to tell the fouls about being a messenger. When I finished my presentation, many of the kids had questions.

"Ms. Derpy, how do you deliver mail with your messed up eyes?"
"Snails!!" scolded Cherilee.
"Derpy do people give complaints when your so clumsy?"
"Derpy, whats with your cutie mark?"

All personal questions, and some offending, about me. I ran into the wall, the class laughed, and then I ran out the door. When I was out the door, I ran into some ponies of my age, and they laughed too. I didn't notice I was crying. It was my childhood all over again. As I flew to my house, I thought, "But they're right! Im so stupid! Derpy you, you, you DERP!" I ran up the stairs and onto my bed. Then I picked up the phone to send a voice message to Doctor Whooves. *BEEP*

"Hi. Whooves? its Derpy. I got your note, Im glad you're okay. But, but, *sniff*, I'm not sure we're... right for each other. You're a smart, handsome doctor. And me? I'm a dumb, cross-eyed, klutzy, messenger who can't even fly straight. You are way out of my league. I think you'd be better off with a smarter, prettier pony who can tell a sales pony from a close friend. I'm really truly sorry. It's not you. Its ALL me."

I slammed the phone down and then buried my face into my pillow. 30 minutes later I hear someone knock loudly at the door. I wipe my freakish eyes and I open the door. The second it opens he wraps himself around me. I immediately begin to cry. He closes the door and sits me down on my couch.

"Derpy.." He says. His voice seems sad.
"Derpy what happened?" His voice was serious, yet so gentle and comforting.
"I-I-I Im not good enough for you, and you know it!" I yell at him but just hold him tighter.
"Derpy, what in Equestria are you talking about? You are more than 'good enough' for me! Derpy, I would be lost with out you."

I dont respond but he knows I'm understanding what he's saying.

"Derpy, It doesn't matter what any pony else says about you. Just listen to this. You are the most beautiful mare I know, and I would give my world away to see you smile."

I hug him so tightly and he holds me the same way. I love him to much too ever let him go again. I am more proud of myself now, but still, I can be REALLY STUPID sometimes.

Chapter 6: Muddy Anniversaries

The next day I felt good about our "relationship", but I felt kind of embarrassed hehe. But i shouldn't be, because he loves me with all my flaws and stupidities. I started coming to his house everyday again, and it wasn't awkward at all. It was like how it was before my huge, embarrassing breakdown. Before we knew it, it was our one year anniversary, and I didn't know what to get him! He said that the boy was supposed to get the girl a present but I wanted to show how much I cared for him. Then, it hit me. Its zap-apple season! I went to Sugar Cube Corner, and asked Pinkie Pie for a small gift box. I then went to Sweet Apple Acres and actually landed on the ground. Applejack let me have one free zap-apple, but i decided to buy some zap-apple jam too. I then brought everything to my house. I attached a little note that said,

"Dear Whooves,

~ Happy Anniversary! ~

LOVE YOU :D -"
with some ribbon that Pinkie also gave me.

I got the present ready and then I went for a walk in Ponyville. I don't like dresses, but this was a special night, so i went to Carousel Boutique. Rarity was "Sewwww excited" that she gave me a dress for free.

The dinner was at 7:00 but it was only 6:30, so i put on my dress and took another stroll around Ponyville. As I flew, some mare flew up to me and said,

"Derpy hooves, was it?"
"Yup!"
"Whats with the dress, derp?"
"Today is my anniversary with Doctor Whooves!"
"Let me see the dress."

I, a bit confused, gave her the dress and she began to fly away.

"Bye derp-face!" she shouted
"Wait!" I said. She turned around.
"WHAT derp!?"
"Give me my dress please!"
"Dresses aren't your thing, hun. Stick to blowing bubbles."

It was already 7:25.

"I need my dress miss, please."
"If I can't have it, Neither can YOU!"

She then threw the dress towards a puddle of mud. The pony left me there, in the mud, with my ruined dress. There was no time to buy a new one. So I tried to dry it off with my wings, and I put it on. I raced back to my house for the present, and raced back to Ponyville where he lived. I came into his house, but he didn't say anything about the dress.

"The spaghetti is almost ready, my little Derpy." he said, as we sat down on the couch. I quickly got back up.
"Oh no! I got mud on your couch!"
"Its okay, sit back down."

I took a second, but I sat back down, making another stain.

"Oh," I said, "here's your present!"
"For me?" he asked surprisingly.
"No, for Spike. YES YOU!" I laughed.

And I handed him the small box. He opened it. He then ran into the kitchen. What? But the he came back out with some bread.

"To eat with the jam." he said and smiled.

Then he saw the apple and read the card.

"Hmm... an apple. This reminds me of something..." and then he moved me an inch over.
"We were sitting right here." he finished.

This is where we were sitting when we first kissed. Soon we went into the dining room and he made THE BEST pasta i've ever tasted.
I noticed that there was only one plate of spaghetti.

"Wait, you only cooked one plate?"
"Yup!"
"But how-"

Oh. Then I knew. We were supposed to share it like in that romantic movie called "Filly and the Colt."I just went with it. Soon it was just like in the movie. There was one noodle, and one meatball left. He rolled the meatball to me, so I ate it. He giggled, and so did I. We each bit one side of the noodle and began to slurp it up. We were about to have that perfect moment when you seal a date with a kiss. But, the noodle broke, soooo. Well I stayed later than I thought I would. It was 11:00. I was about to say goodbye, but of course, he kissed me before I could speak. When I got home, I took off my dress, and plopped into bed. But then I realized something. Whooves didn't give me a present.

Chapter 7: Time in a Bubble

I was so tired. But couldn't believe it. Did he.. forget? He couldn't! He came home from an important trip just because I had a "tiny" emotional breakdown! And he loves me. Right? Right. Don't doubt it Derpy, he loves you. Oh, I can't help It! I have to ask him about it!
The next day I flew down to his house and he let me in.

"WHY DIDNT YOU GIVE ME AN ANNIVERSARY PRESENT HUH?" I said, more intense than I'd expected.
"Haha what? Your Present?" He chuckled.

Then, his smile turned upside down.

"Oh."

Just then I became saddened. He did forget.

"Its okay." I said and then I made it out the door.

We'd been together for so long. And how could he forget our first anniversary? Well, the present I mean. All day I just lay in bed, bouncing a ball against the wall. I was so bored. I would usually go to his house, but nope. Not now.

I went to Twilights kingdom. Its so... crystaly. Does she live there or something? All I see are a bunch of big, colorful rocks. But unlike her old library, not anypony can just waltz in. Only her BPFFs. I think Applejack made that term up or something. Maybe i can help Applejack! I flew to Sweet Apple Acres, and asked Applejack if she needed any help. She said that they were selling the zap-apples already and that was keeping them busy. I know i can't make dresses. Once I tried, but I kept poking my hoof no matter how many times Rarity told me how to do it. And I DO NOT want to model for her. Thats soooooooooooooooooooooooooo boring. Fluttershy tried, but I remember how that turned out! Im not making ANY Pinkie promises.

I tried helping Fluttershy with her animals, but I accidentally let the chickens loose and I couldn't round 'em up because I can't see when they're going to fast. I would help Pinkie, but she doesn't need help. She make EVERYTHING herself, and its always derpTASTIC! Rainbow Dash can clear the sky in 10 seconds flat. She doesn't need help. NO ONE needs help! I feel so useless. All I do is deliver mail. Yay. Im soo proud.

Later I couldn't help myself. I walked to Whooves' house and knocked on the door. No pony was home. But then he came from behind me, opened the door, and offered me to come in. I did. When I was sitting on the couch, he handed me a box. I looked at it for a second.

"Whooves, I don't want a present that you just ran to the store and bought. I-"
"Just listen. Please?" he said. I nodded, and he began to speak again,
"When I went to Canterlot, It wasn't all for the medical stuff. Partly, but you see, they have the best glass crafters in Equestria. Since I came home early, I didn't have time to get you present."
"Whooves! That trip was almost a year ago!"

Oh wait... He just had a trip to Canterlot last weekend because some a major amount of royal guards were injured.

"Oh never mind." I said, "Im just dumb. I am so stupid. You are the nicest stallion ever, and you have to deal with a Derp every time you do something nice." I felt so ashamed and stupid.

I wanted to give him a hug but it felt so awkward. But luckily he hugged me instead. I don't know what got into me, but I resisted. I shook him off. He seemed confused. Then I started to speak,

"I was right Doctor. One year ago I was right. You are too good for me."

You could see his face sadden.

"Derpy, dont do this."
"Whooves Im not good enough! Im a useless piece of messed up junk! I don't deserve you! You should go find a smart, pretty, scientist or something, who's actually right for you!"
"Derpy you're perfect for me!"
"No doctor. Im not perfect for you," I was holding back tears.
"And I am no where near perfect. I can't be with you. Its not right. Celestia wouldn't want this, its all wrong!"

He was silent. His legs looked unstable. His face looked sad. He looked broken. I couldn't look any longer. I turned to the door, but before I left, he gestured the box to me enthusiastically. And then I left.

When I got to the house I really didn't want to, but I took the box and opened it. In the tissue paper was an hourglass. Just like his cutie mark. And the hourglass was inside a glass bubble, and on the bubble it said, "I LOVE YOU WHOOVES+DERPY" Derpy lay it on her side table and cried herself to sleep.

Chapter 8: My Shattered Heart and Cutie Mark

The next morning, I woke up with crusty eyes. Which made me feel blind. My head was pounding. I went to the bathroom to wash my face, and then came back to me room, just to look at his gift. It was so beautiful. But how did he pull it off? Wait. Maybe he did it when he went to Canterlot last weekend, and faked that he forgot it just so he could pick it up yesterday! He is the best stallion. And I love him.. But we can't be together. Im just not good enough. And I love him enough to let him make the right choice and forget about me.

Every day when I got home from work, I would just sit in my room with the hourglass and think about him. I missed him so much. So I picked it up and hugged it. It was all I had left of him. Suddenly, I wasn't holding it anymore. That thought was followed by a loud crash.
I looked down and saw the broken bubble with sand all over my floor. I wanted to cry but I didn't have any tears left. I knelt down and found two separate pieces of glass that said, "Whooves" and "Derpy." I picked up the two pieces and put it on my table. I cleaned up the rest, and put it in a drawer. I began to walk.

"Ouch!" I yelped.

"I had stepped in the broken glass, and now my hooves where bleeding. I stepped in alot. I guess I didn't clean it up properly, knowing that I can't see tiny, clear pieces of glass.

"Oww."

I flew out of my house, and went to Twilight.

"Oh Derpy, it might be infected!" Twilight was looking away as she said it.
"You should go see Doctor Whooves."
"...Uhh," I said awkwardly.
"His house is right down the street."
"I know."

Then I thanked her and flew to the entrance of my house.

"What should I do!?" I shouted into the sky.

My hooves were still bleeding and it really stung. I had to go see him. So I used part of a cloud as gauze for a moment to help stop the bleeding, and flew to his house. I knocked on the door with my head. (Note to self: Don't knock on doors with your head). It took a moment, but the door finally opened. There were bags under his eyes like he hadn't slept in a month. He had whiskers on his face. His tie was wrinkled. I'd never seen him like this before, but it felt good to see him.

"Derpy!" he said.
"You're bleeding!" he said and pulled me into his house.

He sat me on the couch and disappeared into a room. It felt good sitting on this nice, velvet couch again. So many memories made on this couch. Our memories went from kissing, talking, and head bumping, to break-ups, mud, and cut hooves. Soon he came out with a bunch of first aid stuff. He put on some weird spray, and a band-aid. The spray stung but I didn't yelp or anything. I didn't want to make it even weirder. When he was done, I thanked him and I stood up and headed for the door. But before I left, I began to speak.

"Are you... okay?" I asked.

There was a silence between us.

"Do I look okay?" He asked me.
"Not really."
"Derpy I haven't been okay ever since you broke up with me."
"It is for the best, Whooves, I love you."
"If you love me, why did you leave me?"
"Because I am not good enough!"
"Yes you are! You are more than 'good enough'!"
"I'm dumb! You're super smart!"
"Im smart?"
"Yeshh!"
"Ok. If Im so smart, I SAY YOU ARE PERFECT for me no matter what you say! I don't care if you move to Cloudsdale, I will go to Twilight every day and ask her to put a spell on me to walk on clouds, and I will pay Cherri Berry to use her balloon! I DONT CARE where you are Derpy Hooves, I will ALWAYS love you!"

I landed. I sat down. I landed and sat down on the cold wooden floor. Then I lay down. I landed, sat down, and lay down on his cold wooden floor.

"..What, are you doing?"

I just lay there and closed my eyes. He carried me to the couch and I fell asleep. I was tired.

Chapter 2: Just a Balloon

Whooves's house was a mess. The entrance to his house was filled with millions of coats hanged on an ancient-looking coat rack. There were hats on the coat rack too. But the funny thing is that they all looked the same. When you came in, there was a sofa which you couldn't tell what color it was because there were so many things thrown over it. There were newspapers, unused boxes, blankets,and a great amount of pillows.

"Mind those," he said with a cheeky grin (or what I thought was a cheeky grin).

He lead me through the mess of documents, bottles of something, and what looked like CDs. then he lead me through his kitchen (which you can only guess how messy it was) with pots and pans in the sink, opened cabinets and closed ones oozing strange things. The floor was dirty and the table was missing a leg. There was what looked like frosting spread on the table, and the walls were covered in cake mix and multicolored cooking errors. He looked ashamed of such a mess.

"Sooooo.... I'm Derpy. It's nice to meet you, but I don't really need to go into your house for the balloon; I'm pretty sure Pinkie Pie had some-"
"Derpy, I'm Dr. Whooves. Whooves, for short. And I know, we're not in here for a balloon."
"Then what are we here for?"
"Because I like you."

I was quiet for a while, and then I said,

"I like you too."

And then something marvelous happened; something I didn't think would ever happen to a run-down and stupid, crazy ugly pegasus like me.

He kissed me.

I melted.

Chapter 9: An Apple a Year Keeps the Doctor Near

When I woke up, it was the next morning.

"Oh my glob." I said.

Then I noticed he was sitting in a matching velvet chair next to the couch. He was awake.

"You slept well." He said.
"Were you up all night.. watching me?"
"More like watching over you. I just wanted to make sure you were okay."
"I wasn't okay. I mean, ever since I broke up with you."
"Niether was I."
"I know. But now, Im okay- at least I think..."
"Derpy, do you still want to be with me?"
"Yes."
"You don't even want to think about it?"
"Doctor, when you're in love, theres no time to think. And me, you know I don't think." I smiled. So did he.

I got up from under the blanket and walked up to his chair, and sat on his lap. We talked about everything that happened during the time we were apart.

Later, I said goodbye, and went for a walk in Ponyville feeling better than ever. This time I was proud of myself. I was proud of my job. I was proud of the way I flew and walked. I was proud of my eyes. I was proud of my weird voice. I felt beautiful. I accidentally bumped into the girl who ruined my dress.

"Look, Its the messed up mare!" She said, and all her friends laughed.
"I am not messes up. I am clumsy, but I am proud to be me."
"Oh! She knows how to speak!" Her friends laughed again.
"You already know I know how to speak! I remember talking to you when you ruined my dress."

Her friends looked at her but didn't laugh, and then left her. She scowled at me and then sashayed away. I felt good. I went to Sugar Cube Corner to buy a muffin, and then headed to my house. When I got to my door, there was a small box. I opened it. Inside, was a big, shiny zap-apple.

THE END
