Human Mind, Pony Body

Chapter 8

Love

By TheFablequestria

I still couldn't get over the fact. He likes me, and I knew it. I looked through the corner of my eye. He was still there. I started to feel weird, and I looked back. After a while, Peachy decided to go inside. I followed her. "Peachy?"

"Yes?"

"He likes me." I moaned.

"Well, you ARE a pretty good looking filly!" I felt like blushing, but I'm not sure I really was one. I'm a filly yes, but I cant...I..it..I'll.. I'll see if he likes me for sure. I had no choice.

"I'm going out for a bit."

"Okay, stay safe!" I put on my pack and went outside to his hiding spot. I was behind him. He was facing the wall, deep in his thoughts.

"Can I help you?"

"Wah..Oh.. uhm.. no.. I'm.. just.. finding rocks for my... rock collection." He smiled embarrassed. I knew it was a lie, but I didn't care. I looked at him with a curious expression. He likes me, but do I like HIM?

"Well.. okay. Stop by if you need anything. Glad to help. Anyways, best be on my way. Bye!" I trotted off. 'Might as well go to the park for a bit.' I started to trot to the park.

"Uhm.." He was trotting beside me.

"What?"

"Where..where are you going?"

"To the park." I smiled.

"I-I.. I'm going there too." It was funny. He tried to win me.

"I assume you want to go together?" His eyes flickered.

"Uh.. yeah! Sure!" He was smiling. Heh, he's glad to be with me. We arrived. I went over to the swings and started swinging slowly. He joined me.

"So um.. what's your name?" He asked.

"Skyrose." I replied.

"Oh.. uhm.. I'm .. Midnight Wander.."

"Hm... I wonder why..." I grinned.

"Well.. I kinda enjoy going out at night."

"Heh.. well, the night can be beautiful." I said. It was getting late. The sky was becoming orange.

"Wow... the sunset is so beautiful" He commented.

"Mhmm. Well, I'll best be on my way, it's not too safe out at night."

"Oh, okay." I began to trot home. He galloped, catching up to me. I arrived at my yard. I opened my door.

"Peachy!"

"Yeah?"

"I'm just going to stay out near the house for a bit longer okay?"

"Okay!" It sounded like she was in the shower. I decided to lay on the ground and star gaze. Midnight Wander went home, and came back 5 minutes later, and layed beside me.

"Those stars look like a tree!" He pointed out.

"Yes, that is quite true, and these bunch of stars are in the shape of a brush." I stated. After stargazing with Midnight for a while, I decided it's best to go inside.

"Well Midnight, today has been.. fun.. and well, I'm going to go inside, okay?"

"Okay. See ya around sometime?" Okay, is he going to try to take me out on a date? I giggled at the thought of him trying.

"Uhm.. sure!" We parted ways, finally. I went inside and ate a quick snack, and layed down on the carpet with the fireplace on, and reading a book. Peachy came downstairs and saw me.

"Hey Rosy!" She smiled. She was wearing a towel on her head. I didn't know Equestria's almost the same thing as Earth.

"Peachy!" I looked up at her.

"So.. how was the date?"

"Date what date what are you talking about there was no date?" I blushed, and I talked so fast. Even though it was true. No date. But, he did seem kind of interesting.. UGH... my second part is taking over.

"Sure, whatever!" She giggled. "So are you getting ready for bed?"

"Mhmm... uh.. I'm going to stay a few more hours if I can .. if it's okay?"

"Yes, it is okay, sis."   She brought a mini lamp you use to read books and stuff at night and turned it on, placing it beside me. I enjoyed my new life, finding it very comforting. I continued reading my book. Let's just say, for some reason, I'm reading the elements of harmony book Twilight has. No I did not steal it, I found it on the bookshelf oddly. I enjoyed reading it. Heh, I'm like a mini Twilight Sparkle. After reading so many pages, I felt sleepy. I yawned, and put a bookmark on the page where I left off. I decided to call it a day, and so I put the closed book on the table, and went to sleep.

I woke up. I didn't have a flashback, Thank goodness. It was 11 AM, and I wasn't feeling tired. I went outside and sat on my yard. No, I was not hoping for Midnight to come. I just looked at the orange sky. I felt something odd. I galloped away, like something was leading me. I stumbled upon Twilight's house. I just stood there staring at the door. It's weird how I was led here. I didn't know what to do. I found her house, but I couldn't just knock, it seemed kind of risky. I now knew the path to her home, and so I trotted back to my home.

When I arrived, Peachy was in the kitchen eating a bowl or carrots. "There you are, Rosy!"

"Hi Peachy!" I smiled.

"You hungry?"

"No, not really." I went to the bathroom and also read a bit more of my book. It became 1 PM. It was obvious Midnight would be awake. I put the book in my pack, put it on along with my key (which was already on.) and notified Peachy.

"I'm just going outside with.. uh.. to go to the park for a bit?"

"Mhmm, okay see you around sis!" She waved me off as I trotted outside. After I closed the door, I turned around to see Midnight.

"Woah, uh, good morning Midnight." I was kind of surprised.

"Hi Skyrose" He was happy, and you probably know why.

"Uhm, I was just going to.. uh.." I didn't know what to say. Yes, I was going to get him, shut up, we're not dating.

"Oh, I almost forgot! I forgot to show you my house!" He led me to his house. It was right behind his hiding spot, heh.

"Oh.. um.. okay. So.. do you want to go to the park again?" I asked.

"Yeah!" We went back to the park and I went on the swings again, with him. "Uhm.. SkyRose?"

"Hm?"

"I... I'm starting school tomorrow. At your school." Wow, he hasn't been at school!? Maybe he was at a different one before.

"That's nice to hear." I felt somepony breath on my neck. I felt a hoof touch me. I turned around to see Peachy.

"Peachy!" I was surprised to find her here.

"Heheh, so how's your date going?" Peachy asked. Midnight just stared at me with his mouth open.

"It's not a date!!!" I blushed. Like I said, it's not a date, but seen with him may show different.

"Yeah yeah whatever you say!" She smirked. Peachy joined on the swings too, because hay, why not. I felt happy and relaxed around these 2. Yes, I have to give in. I'm done. There is no option. Peachy thought we were dating. It seemed so. But I deny it.
