Hard to Love

   Rarity's Fashion show. It was a disaster. Simply disastrous.

   Fluttershy glumly walked into Rarity's Boutique, for she was one of her models. Other models were chit-chatting about but Fluttershy was much too scared to interact with anyone.

  "5 minutes!" Rarity exclaimed nervously.

.  Fluttershy slipped into her long, silky dress. It was a soft sea blue sprinkled with sequins on her top. She wore simple white flats which hurt her tiny toes but Fluttershy kept it in. Her long pink hair was all curled, but felt somehow unnatural.

.  The Fashion Show started and Fluttershy already had start to sweat. She was the last model to walk out so Fluttershy was terrified.

Finally, it was her turn and Fluttershy pasted on a fake grin. She strutted out and the lights shined at her from all directions. She felt like a poor animal standing in front of a monster truck's headlights. Everyone was watching her every. Single. Move. They were giving her their undivided attention and Fluttershy squeaked. She slipped on her dress walking her way back and stumbled, which led her to falling. The crowd became aroused and a wave of giggles drowned Fluttershy. She lowered her head and walked backstage.

"What happened, Fluttershy?" Rarity asked.

"Nothing. I'm fine."

Fluttershy wasn't in the mood for Rarity's sassy and stubborn mood to burst so she ran straight back home. She tore the dress off and changed into her cozy pajamas. She snuggled up into her bed, read a few pages of the current book she was reading, and fell into deep sleep.
