Asking Her Out/Getting to Know Each Other Part 1

It had been only two minutes since lunch ended and I had been following Sunset, I had followed her to her homeroom, where I took my chance and went up to her.

"Uh Sunset?" I said getting her attention, "Um, uh, I was wondering, if later after school you'd want to hang out with me? Me and the band ain't got anything planned for today and Flash and his band is booked until next week and I was wondering if I could possibly spend the rest of the day with you."

"Are you asking me to a date?" she asked

"What?! Um, uh, n-no of coarse not, I-I just wanted to spend some time with you since, um we don't really know each other all that well." I said trying to cover up the fact I WAS asking her out

"Well we only knew each other for a little while back in the hospital, so sure why not." she said

YES! I thought happily

"Well wait outside the school, we can walk to where I have in mind." I said

"Okay see you later then." she said

"Keep on rocking it!" I said backing up into a wall

I rubbed the back of my head and blushed with a sheepish smile as I pointed to Sunset with both my fingers and thumbs in the air and left. I ran a little down the hall and when I made sure no one was around i let go of my sheepish look and smiled.

"YES!" I shouted happily fist pumping in the air

The rest of the day went on as normal, but I got most of my work finished early because I was too eager to take Sunset where I was thinking of going.

"And that class is how (9x4)3 can equal 27x12." Discord said before the bell rang, "Remember class that when it comes to those types of problems it's no big deal and dividing in exponents is easy!"

We all poured out of the classroom and then once we all made it to the front doors out we went. Some students were leaving via parent picking them up, using their parents car, or a car of their own, while most either walked or rode the bus, I saw moms car and went up to them saying that I was gonna spend the rest of the day with Sunset, I even told them I asked her out on a date and she said yes. L mom joked about how I was growing up on her and me and C mom face palmed. C mom and L mom are the terms I use to call Luna and Celestia since both of them are my moms. C mom told me to be careful and rode off towards home.

I had been waiting for Sunset and when I saw her come out I  went over to her.

"Sorry I'm late Flash wanted to talk to me." Sunset said

"About what?" I asked

"Nothing important." Sunset said,"So where did you have in mind for us to go?"

"I thought about going to Sugar Cube Corner since most of the students tend to go there for a nice hang out, I know where it is since L mom drove by it when I was coming back from the hospital." I said

"L mom?" Sunset asked

"It's what I use to call Luna my mom, same goes for Celestia when I call her C mom." I explained

"Oh." Sunset said

"We can begin talking once we get there best to make sure we don't wanna go in as soon as we got there." I said

Sunset just giggled as we walked down the sidewalk. The rest of the walk wasn't far and soon we found ourselves at the corner and found ourselves a set inside where I bought ourselves some chocolate milkshakes. Put one in front of Sunset and one in front of me I decided to start explaining a bit about myself.

"So I guess I should start." I said, "Well I know for a fact that I was born in Equestria, but I was mainly raised in Manehatten."

"I hear that's a pretty good place to be." Sunset said as she took a sip

"Yeah, it can be if you like to hear news of murder every 24/7." I said, "Murder is a pretty common crime where I'm from."

"We rarely get crime here, practically the only thing we got close to crime was me turning into a raging  she demon." Sunset said as I took a sip

"I head about that." I said, "What exactly happened?"

"Well back then just like you I too was born in Equestria, but spent most of my life there. I used to by Princess Celestia's own personal protege too, but I let power get to my head and it made me go down a path that turned me cruel and dishonest." Sunset said

"Thanks to Darkness." I added

"She tried to help me, but unfortunately there was nothing she could do, I left here and became the ruler of Canterlot High for most of my life there, but the SHE showed up." Sunset said taking another sip

"Twilight Sparkle?" I asked

"Bingo." she said, "And her little dragon friend turned dog too."

"Why did Twilight come here anyways?" I asked

"I stole her crown which was the element of magic, an element in the elements of harmony." she explained, "I switched it with one that was quiet similar to the one used in the last Fall Formal."

"To me if anyone says that there was no way the two being identical is a coincidence I call bullshit on." I say, "This world is like a human version of Equestria, from what i know, so SOME things had to stay similar, so it is in my opinion pure coincidence."

"Exactly." Sunset said taking another sip while I did, "I didn't know it was Twilight then, but when I saw that she had signed up to be Fall Formal princess I knew it HAD to be her."

"Trying to protect your pride?" I asked

"I won EVERY one from my Freshman year to Sophomore year." she said, "Even the Spring Fling, which you DON'T want to know about."

"Something tells me if you told me you'd have to kill me right?" I asked

"Eeyup." she said as I took a nervous sip, "I would've won this year as well if only it hadn't been for Flash proving Twilight innocent."

"How?" I asked

"I told my lackeys Snips and Snails made fake photos of Twilight trashing the school gym, and it would've worked too if only Flash hadn't found those cut outs in the library trash can." Sunset said, "I got kicked out of the Fall Formal because of it."

"No offense, but serves you right for doing that, back then at Manehatten High if you did that they would suspend you for 3 weeks." I said

"Glad I didn't go there." Sunset said, "Anyway, when the night came around I had to use threats to get the crown back, only for it to not work and we ended up having a game of keep away for it."

"Someone probably had a barrel of laughs at that." I said taking another sip

"Well when I finally got it back I placed it on my head, only for Darkness to corrupt my head." Sunset said

"Hope I don't have to go through that." I said

"That's when I turned into a raging she demon." Sunset said, "I used my newly acquired powers to turn the students into my own little teenage army."

"Did you at least tell them to pick up some kind of weapon?" I asked

"Well, no." she confessed

"Worst. Plan. Ever." I said

"I know." Sunset groaned, "But if it hadn't been for the fact that Twilight had reunited Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash back together after I tore them apart I wouldn't be like this."

"What happened?" I asked as Sunset took a sip

"The magic inside the crown had both dark AND light magic inside it, and somehow it protected Twilight and her human friends from a fireball I threw at them." Sunset said as I took a big sip, "Magic came from the crown and turned them into half pony half human things and then all of a sudden a rainbow shot out from them turning me to normal and curing the students."

"Well that was nice of her." I said

"She and her friends as well as Flash forgave me, but everyone else not so much." Sunset said

"I don't blame them." I said, "No offense."

"None taken." Sunset said, "But enough about me, what about you?"

"Me?" I asked, "Well during my elementary years I didn't have many friends, I was kind of the loner."

I took a sip of my shake and continued.

"It wasn't until my 6th grade year that some people actually gained the courage to talk to me."

"Didn't anyone want to talk to you?" Sunset asked

"Unless you count the teachers no." I said, "My 6th grade year was also the same one that I joined up for soccer."

"I heard." Sunset said taking a sip

"When the tournament came around that's when I discovered my ability as a leader." I stated, "It was near the end of the game and the Ponyville Crusaders had us pinned 6 to 6, a tie game, but then one of the Crusaders broke the leg of one of our teammates causing a time out."

"How?" Sunset asked

"Well apparently one of them must've thought we were playing football for some fucking reason and tackled our kicker before the match could begin and just as he kicked and was tackled he landed on his leg, but then the tacklers spiky cleats went through the guys leg cutting through his bone."

"Oh Jesus!" Sunset said

"After that I was called in to replace him an while the others were stratigizing I looked at the other team. An idea then came to my head and I went in telling them to give the ball to me and I'd do the rest of the work." I continued, "They didn't like it at first, but when the time out ended and the ball was given to me I went by all of the team. All of a sudden two of my teammates came up to my sides and to my left I shouted, 'Bright Glow get ahead of me!' and to my right I shouted, 'Clash Bomber head for the right part of the goal!' then I turned my head back to the others that were following me and shouted, 'Half of you hold them back, half of you distract the goalie!' and when saw some of them get ahead of me my morale soared."

Sunset giggled at that, must've been the word morale.

"But then I started to fumble with the ball, I knew it would happen, Heck i even shouted, 'Crud I knew this would happen!' and then I kicked it over to Clash Bomber who kicked it in before the goalie could notice and won us the game." I said, "After that people actually started coming to me for soccer advice, but I mostly just told them to follow what your instincts told you to do and after that  can't tell you how many people started winning at soccer games at Manehatten Elementary."

"I hear you're quiet clumsy as well." Sunset said

"Yeah I discovered that during summer break when dad needed the blow torch to stop a leak in the basement and my not looking I accidentally aimed it at his ass and he was all over the place trying to put it out." I said

Sunset just laughed getting a bit of a blush.

"I guess I should go onto my middle school years then." I said, "Well almost everybody that was in my 6th grade year went to Manehatten Middle where things got A LOT tougher from there on out."

"They say middle school is the worst years of your life." Sunset said

"And it's true." I said, "Five minutes to get to each class, eight school periods, stricter teachers, it's just one slip up there and it's game over for you."

"Glad I never got to experience that." Sunset said taking a lick at the whip cream

"But you should've been there when the school got taken over by terrorist." I said, "It was one of the best moments of my life."

And that's how I got to know Sunset Shimmer, now onto part 3 where I told Sunset one of the better moments in my life.
