Human Mind, Pony Body

Gifts and Presents

By TheFablequestria

I let out a yawn. I opened my eyes, to see a color which I loved oh so much. A beautiful red colored mane, with 2 emerald eyes I could never forget. A smile owned by my favorite pony. Peachy was laying beside me. "How'd ya sleep?" she asked.

"Wonderful!" I stretched 'Man that always feels so good..'.

"Come on, let's eat." Peachy said cheerfully.

"Do you know my favorite color?"

"Uhm...no, what is it?" Peachy answered puzzled.

"Peach." I giggled. I could see Peachy blush.

"Hehe.. mines grey" She said. "Remember, I'm your 'gift'?"

"Yeah..?"

"Well you are my little present." She hugged me. "Every gift can be easily lost or destroyed, if not taken care of." She said cheerfully. "I love you."

"Love ya to sis.." I replied. I hoped she didn't see me blush.

"Cereal. Are you ok with that?"

"Fine by me!" I smiled. I went to the bathroom and went downstairs to eat with Peachy at the kitchen table. She fed me again. She was right, gifts CAN be easily lost or destroyed, if not looked after. I'm her "gift", and she's mine. If she had not cared for me, I would be probably be crying on the road. But if I hadn't cared for her, as to saving her... she wouldn't be here today... "We look out for eachother, we're family. If you hadn't been here for me.. I..."

"I will ALWAYS be here for you, no matter what!" She smiled.

"But.. you could've been killed because of me." I almost felt a tear already.

"No. I could've died if you chose to turn back. But instead, you had a spark in the caring part of your heart. You came and did your best. There were consequences..." Her ears fell back. "..and rewards."

"The reward, is you. The consequence could have been my life, but I couldn't let that happen to somepony like you. Hay, I would kill myself for your safety." I said smiling.

"Uh..too far.." Her cheeks were kind of red.

"Honest." When we were finished, it was time for school once more. We arrived at school and my sis nuzzled me gently. What is it, that makes THESE nuzzles so good? Probably Peachy.

"Have a good day!" She smiled.

"You too!" I nuzzled her back. We parted ways.. my least favorite thing to do. I sat down on my chair, and we began our lesson. It was time for recess. Everypony went outside. I could see Applebloom  heading towards me. She was followed by Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon.

"Party's tonight." Diamond Tiara mocked us.

"Nah, Peachy's my tonight." I smiled.

"You had better shut your face, SkyRose! Just because you're new doesn't make you popular."

"You're right.. I had better shut my face.." I said sadly. My friends were shocked at my response. "If my face had a handle!" I joked. She was pissed off.

"I'm still more popular than you!!!"

"True.. but how many of your 'friends' actually care about you? Let's see.. about 1 of 10 of your friends actually care about you... maybe." I smirked. "Whereas me and Peachy care for anypony. She probably does, too," I said pointing at Applebloom. "You? Nope. You're a selfish little brat. The safety and feelings of others isn't your concern. Haven't you ever heard friendship is magic? You wouldn't even care if something were to happen to Silver Spoon!"

"Thats...thats..THAT'S A LIE!"

"Coming from MY family? Odd, isn't that YOUR family's tradition?"

"SILVER SPOON. LET'S. GO." She and Silver began to leave.

LATER...

It was time for recess. "Party's tonight..?" I whispered to myself.

"Skyrose!" I could hear Applebloom call me. I stood up on my hind legs, peaking out from behind the school. I then relaxed my strained muscles, slid down, and sat until the bell rang. I wanted some time alone. 'Okay, I have to remember what episode this is... and how many I missed.. and still are..' I could've let Peachy die... but that wouldn't have been happening if I didn't become a pony. She might have not even existed. Skyrose may've not existed! It was time for some art. It was dismissal time. I grabbed my pack and galloped through the door. I was kind of excited for the party, and yes, I might be saying that so I could forget about the events that had and could occur. I saw Peachy waiting for me in the schoolyard.

"Peachy! Peachy!" I squeaked again. I kinda like it how I sometimes squeak when excited, happy, or.. well.. scared.

"Hi Rosy!" She smiled. I hugged her. We went home.

"Peachy!'

"Yes?"

"Diamond Tiara's party is tonight!"

"Oh, okay. And I assume you might know what happens?"

"Yeah, basically." When it was time for the party I went and everything went according to episode, and I became a Cutie Mark Crusader. I was also thinking of how cute I would look in a cape. But, everypony is cute no matter what they are wearing. I then went to sleep after everything, at home, curled up on the carpet again.

I woke up. I looked at the blurry clock. 10:20 A.M . I got up, and went to the kitchen. I made my cereal, and ate alone. I found some coffee in a cabinet. I tried to make it, after many disgusting and horribly failed attempts.  Finally, I made it correctly. The coffee tasted like french vanilla, my favorite coffee. I then finished breakfast and went outside. I sat down on my house's small lawn.. or yard, pondering what my cutie mark could be. "UGH! What am I doing!? I'm not going to think like the Cutie Mark Crusaders!" I got angry at myself. I saw a young male pass by. I started to feel weird. 'Oh no.. no no no no NO!' This couldn't have been happening! I looked away quickly. I felt so weird I couldn't stand up. My tail starting moving from left to right. Well that's fantastic.. a partnership is near if I don't do something about it! I glanced at him through the corner of my eye. He was a..a.... admiring me!?

I swear.. if he comes near me... I turned fully around to look at him (purely for reaction). He waved. I didn't want to be rude, so I waved back. He then continued trotting away. If he stayed for a second more, I would hyperventilate, even though I never have and don't know what it feels like, but it makes it hard to breathe, right? I then layed down, staring at the sky. It might help get my mind off some things, like that guy. I looked at the clouds, and heard a sound behind me. I felt the presence of somepony behind me. I looked a little more up, and saw Peachy smiling. Oh no... was she here all the time!? "How long were you here?" I asked. She giggled.

"Just woke up."

"Oh.. um... okay." She layed on the ground beside me a I had no choice, but to adjust to this new life.
