True Feelings

Chapter 2: "Reaching Stars"

"...Having a dream is something that you can't explain, sometimes it is something from your past or future, but sometimes it can be ridiculously stupid. Or not? Everything has sense, right?" - Pinkie Pie

A pink girl lied on her bed, dipped in her thought. Her name was Pinkie Pie, and right now she was suffering from insomnia. That's is something, that you won't wish to anybody, not even enemies. The reason why she couldn't sleep was her true feelings. Secretly she had a crush on Rainbow Dash, but the truth is that she wasn't sure If her best friend will accept her. She thought that If she will confess her feelings to Rainbow Dash, she will never be her friend. That's the reason why when she is happy - it's just an illusion. Her sadness is hidden under the mask of fake happiness.

(She was sleeping in her special pajamas of "loneliness", she wears them when she feels lonely. Right now she wore her favorite one - cat pajamas, with cat's ears. She had all kinds of pajamas: dog pajamas, mouse, even alligator and etc.) Pinkie tried to forget her problems for some reason, but no matter how she tried to sleep - it was useless. Pinkie have tried sleeping in different poses: on the right side, on the left, on her belly, on her back. Even her plushy alligator "Gummy" was useless. She gave up and began counting sheep, but it wasn't helpful either. The clock was showing 4:06 AM, "That's lame" - Pinkie thought while still counting sheep. "...five hundred and sixty six, five hundred and sixty seven, five hundred and sixty eight...It is so boring," - Pinkie said aloud with sadness. It felt so lonely and bored. After another some boring hundred sheep, she began observing her room, it wasn't bright as her personality, her inner world, but it had bright colors. And it wasn't random as everybody would expect, it was a cozy well-conditioned room with pink wallpapers, and a few streamers with random balloons. The window let pass the moonlight that filled the room, now it was colored in slight pale pink color. Her glance stopped at the window, something strange was happening there: The moonlight began slowly forming a bunch of tiny little creatures with legs. These "moonlights" began randomly walking and running across the room. Some of them climbed on Pinkie's bed and started dancing. "Oh, what a cute little thing. Heh, I guess counting sheep wasn't that useless" - she said with a smile. Pinkie got up of her bed, she stretched her arms to enliven her joints. Everything was so real, like it wasn't a dream at all. She was experiencing all the feelings like in real life.

"I wonder, what's outside" - she thought while trying to open the door. But, as she tried to open the door, her fingers went through it, like she was a ghost. She passed through the door, and her feet weren't touching the floor - she was floating in the air. "Wow, that's so cool! But it would be more fun If I had wings" Pinkie tried to float downstairs, but that was useless, she didn't know how to fly so as she tried to float, she flied upward. As she floated through the ceiling, she could see the sky wrapped in moonlight, enlightened with stars. After she reached the sky, she stopped at some point. Her body hanged in the clear area. She was so high she could see her best friends houses; As she enjoyed the panorama of her town, some bunch of clouds bumped into Pinkie Pie; She climbed the nearest cloud, and tried to step on it. The clouds were gathering together creating road that led somewhere. "Hmm, that's weird,... Okay, I'll just go where you want me to go" - Pinkie thought. She was walking somewhere, and she wasn't lonely. Her little moonlight friends walked on the clouds.

While walking on the clouds she enjoyed the beauty of night's sky. The sight was filled with glowing stars floating in the sky, and a giant moon that enlightened the whole city. After walking a few hundreds of "sheep" (measure of time for those who don't understand), she reached a strange house made of clouds. "Wow, what a big house, I wonder who's living there" Pinkie thought as she walked to the entrance of this big white cloud-like house. It featured classical columns and rainbow-colored streams and waterfalls. The house was resembling a tower, and at top of it was a rainbow, streaming down on another cloud. On the entrance was an image of cloud with a rainbowfied streak of lightning.

Pinkie went through the door and she found herself in a dark room, that was slightly enlightened by moonlight creatures walking on the window sill. She passed the corridor and went upstairs; While floating she saw different posters of a soccer team. Something familiar was about this. "Oh it's Wondercolts, a soccer team of our school, and Rainbow Dash is a member of this club... But that means that it is Rainbow Dash's house? Well, I've never been in her house, but I don't think she lives in the clouds, or she does?" Pinkie talked to herself as she floated across the house that was painted in blue. And of course It was filled with various posters of Wondercolts and Daring Do, another Dash's passion.

She floated through the door leading to a room with a sign: "Rainbow Dash". The room itself was empty, there was nothing except furniture and "moonlights" walking on Dashie's bed. "Oh, I thought I could meet her in my dream, It's so lonely her" - Pinkie thought. She floated outside of Rd's cloud-like house. The sky was still full of golden stars. It was a beautiful sight: Stars began falling down, floating in the moonlight. And by floating in the moonlight, I mean that white round creatures carried them. There were various stars, every star was unique and it had beautiful original coloring. One of the stars floated towards Pinkie (but without moonlights), it was a rainbow-like star with sky blue center. "Wow, it's colors are like Rainbow Dash" - Pinkie thought while carefully grabbing a star. She sniffed it - "Hmm, smells like... it really smells so familiar. Oh, it smells like Rainbow!; The glow of star was so beautiful and shiny that she could hardly resist not watching it. "I wonder how does it taste" - Pinkie thought while trying to lick it. "Sweet... like sugar" Pinkie concluded, smiling afterwards.
