Tales of the CMC
A Surprise and A Rejection
Previous Chapter"Orange Blossom, sit there beside Sweetie Belle, the unicorn with the pink hair's left," Cheerilee announced. The lively unicorn hopped to her seat and sat down, giggling. Sweetie Belle did not look at her. I guess she wanna wait till recess. "And Pineapple Cake, sit on Scootaloo's right. Yes, that pegasus with the purple mane." The pegasus grudgingly walked there. I think the boy don't want to sit next to a girl. Sorry, Scoot.But I was wrong! Pineapple sat down with a thump, his tail twitching. Just then he looked at Scootaloo. He stared and stared, and I swear, I swear, his hazel eyes shaping into hearts. What in the hay..... Could he... have a crush on Scoot? Pff! That is the silliest thing I've ever heard! But anyway,I'll find out more about that later.
"It's recess!" Sweetie Belle declared, happily,"Let's go play with the new kids!" "Agree!" "Hey there, Orange Blossom!" The unicorn, who was tinkering with a ball, turned around in surprise. "You know me?" "You just introduce yourself during class!" I exclaimed."I'm Applebloom." "Oh hi Applebloom!" Orange laughed. "And who's that? Oh my right partner, Sweetie Belle!" "Yes, and I'm Scootaloo, and we have a request for you! Will you join the CMC since you don't have a cutie mark?" asked Scootaloo. Orange Blossom's smile turned into a wide grin."OH YESSSS! I'M SO DESPERATE TO FIND OUT WHAT MY CUTIE MARK IS!" "Then you're in the right place," I told her," we'll have a ceremony to welcome you!" "Ooh! That is so exciting!" The cute filly bucked up her back hooves. "How about your brother?" Scootaloo pointed toward Pineapple Cake, who was staring at her intently, all dreamy.
"HEY!" Scootaloo hated being watched by colts. "Who do you think you're looking at, punk?" She bellowed. "Urm-" stammered Pineapple, his face flushing and blushing red, not daring to look in her eyes,"My sister! You know, she's urm-so pretty?!" He then scowled at his own words. "Really?" Delighted sister leaped into the air and held out a hoof,"Wanna dance, my dear sibling?" "NO!" Pineapple Cake yelled. "Alright. I know you're a bad dancer," giggled his sister."So," Sweetie Belle said, changing the subject," Wanna join our club, Cutie Mark Crusaders? It is a society to help you get your cutie mark." Pineapple looked thoughtful then. He glanced at us all, especially long at Scootaloo, and then replied with a firm tone,
"NO."
"What?"
"NO."
"Umm-why?"
He responded so fiercely tears came to poor Sweetie's eyes. "NO NO NO! I WANNA GET MY CUTIE MARK BY MYSELF! NOT WITH SOME DUMB CLUB! Especially with girls that have cooties!" "How old are you?" Scootaloo demanded in disgust," Seriously?" Pineapple looked speechless for a while." Well, why can't I say it? I'm like, bigger than you!" he responded."And you've made Sweetie Belle cry!" I yelled angrily, comforting my friend. "We're not dumb, right?" whispered the white-furred unicorn, tears rolling steadily down her cheeks. "Big brother, you are soooo mean!!!" Orange Blossom spoke again, a determined and furious look on her face." Goodbye, you loser!"
And off we marched. Into another corner of the school playground. Just then the bell rang! Oh alright.. We headed back to our classroom glumly.
