There I was staring at the pony in front of me, she was a fun loving mare but could be pretty damn serious at times, but boy was she pretty! I grinned, even though it probably made me look like some sort of pleasured yokel, I’d always had a serious overbite. She laughed even harder “you’re making that face again!” she giggled “what face?” I said in my most serious voice, but it just made her laugh even harder. Her name was Derpy Hooves, I had met her after our schools had challenged each other to a Lightning Strike tournament, if you haven’t heard of this wonderful pegasi pastime I’ll explain, you have the defenders, the chargers, and the kickers. The kickers kick the ball around in the air without touching a cloud and try to move it to the opposing team’s goal, that’s where the defender’s part comes into play, they set as obstacles as they can to try to stop the kickers, the chargers try to destroy the obstacles. I had been my team’s first class kicker when I ran into a lightning cloud, formed by Miss Hooves. My team thought it was just clumsiness, they were partially right once I set my eyes on here they couldn’t move away. It would forever be recorded on how it was the first time Cumulus Cloud Academy would beat Double Voltage High School at any sport. I wasn’t planning on doing anything after the game, so I helped put away equipment and move clouds, so I was in the locker room by myself. I early finished packing up, when I saw that the grey mare with the blonde mane was watching me from the door, she blushed and said “sorry wrong locker room” and was about to leave when my mouth opened, two things to blurt out ran through my head “how long were you watching me?” and “You were great out there” I quickly called the second option to her before she could leave. She stopped, “yes!” my mind screamed, “Well, I’m not always this good, but lately I’ve been having some pretty good luck lately” She smiled, I laughed “I am on the worst fumble spree of my life” We both laughed and continued to chat about how well this Lightning Strike season was going, until she said it “So are you doing anything tonight?”She asked sweetly “No, but 5 bits says tomorrow I’m going to have drag my team out of pub, because they will drown their misery in spirits and pray to the porcelain god til’ 4 am” She giggled and said “I don’t even want to know what my team is doing right now…” We laughed and then she offered to show me around Cumulus, of course I agreed (who wouldn’t?) I spent that night sitting on a small cloud Next to Derpy under the starry sky pondering the universe and it’s worth. I had gone back to Las Pegasus the next day with my hung-over team, but had promised to keep in touch with Derpy. Two weeks from then, and here I am, at her high school prom with the mare I know I’ll give my heart to. I move towards the punch bowl, I’m exhausted from dancing for such a long period of time. I start to pour myself a cup of the rich scarlet liquid, I was elevating the glass to my lips when something taps me on the shoulder.
