THREE MORE DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!! I’m practically overflowing with joy!

Also, it started snowing today. Luckily, there’s just a few millimeters, so we’re not like, snowed in or anything.

Celestia gives me twenty bucks for Christmas shopping, then she comes with me to make sure I find everything okay.

For Tiara, I picked up a fur coat that looks like it would be over a hundred bucks. In reality, it was only five dollars. Score!

Silver Spoon’s gonna get a fake silver and gold necklace that has a faux sapphire hanging from it. Just so long as she doesn’t figure it out, I’ll be okay… Only two bucks!

Apple Bloom will get a set of apple-scented lotions. Another five bucks…

I already “borrowed” some of Twist’s candy canes. Free!

Rarity will cover Scootaloo and Celestia’s gifts. Also free!

With my leftover money, I buy myself a coffee and some weird little peppermint pastry that I’ve never seen before.

Celestia leaves a while later, so I just spend some time wandering around the store until they make me leave for loitering. Luckily, the store is attached to a mall, so I meander around there. I go window shopping at a couple of clothing stores and jewelry stores, when I see something… interesting.

Button Mash is in the jewelry store.

I drop to my hands and knees and peer in through the doorway.

He’s buying a beautiful pair of emerald heart earrings. I love emeralds.

The clerk puts the earrings in a bag, and the two of the talk for a minute. Then Button starts to walk towards the door. I leap to my feet and hide behind a sign that’s near the store.

I watch him walk away, and I decide to follow him. That’s not like, stalking him though. That would be totally creepy.

Eventually, he stops and sits down on a bench and puts the bag by his feet. So, I decide…. what the heck? I walk over to him.

“Hi Button.” I say super-casually as sweat pours down my face.

“Sweetie Belle! Hi!” He says as he pushes the bag under the bench with his foot.

“Well,” I cough as I start to perspire even more. “I gotta run. Later!”

“Later…?” he says as I run off.

I sit on the couch in the living room and have a laughing attack while the others stared at me.

“Are ya alright, sugarcube?” Apple Bloom asks me.

“Yup!” I say louder than is needed.

“I saw Button at the mall! We chatted for a while…” my voice starts to move up and down in a strange way. I laugh again to regulate it.

Apple Bloom nods slowly. “Right…. is there maybe some medication ya were prescribed ta that ya have taken too much or none of?”

I cough and hack for a good five minutes, then shake my head. “Nope! I’m perfectly fine!”

I end up going to bed SUPER early that night.
