Red Scarf

Divider opened his eyes, giving a slight cough. Scarlet was out of sight and he sighed. The coma was really getting to him, or was it? He felt sick. Butterflies in his stomach. The doctor headed inside. "You recovered more quickly than we thought Mr..." "Just call me Div. And trust me, I don't think I recovered correctly." Divider grunted. The doctor looked confused. "What seems to be the matter?" he asked.  "It's just some mare." he replied. The doctor suddenly gasped. "Oh yeah, that white mare! She left you a note. I'll leave you alone to read it. Come out when your ready to leave okay?" Divider swiped the card from the doctor's hoof. "Y-Yeah." Divider ripped the letter and opened up the note.

Dear Divider,

It been nice staying with you but I have flown home by now. My step-mother was probably worried about me.

It was really nice to meet you once again, I really appreciate your help and wish to meet you again. If you'd like, you could come over to our lovely home. My mother would love to meet you! Well see you soon!

Love, Scarlet

Divider closed the note and placed it in his bag. Of course he was going to come! He walked out of his room and sped through the door. Just as the sun was setting, he made it to her house. This house looks familiar... oh well he thought and knocked on the door. A yellow mare opened up the door, her mane in a bundle. "Hello. Is there anything wrong?" she asked. "N-no ma'm. But does Scarlet live here?" he replied. "Mom!" a voice shrieked. "I told you to not get the door until I'm ready!" Scarlet came rushing out of the kitchen. "Is this your friend? I'm so sorry honey!" the yellow mare whispered.  "Divider! You got the note. I'd thought you'd be willing to come over!" she exclaimed happily. "I'm sorry about my mom, Flutter shy!" she apologized. The yellow mare hid under her hair. "No, no, no, I understand! But she hasn't been doing anything wrong. She's has a good hello!" he said, grinning at Flutter shy. "Please, come in!"

"So Divider, your actually Scarlet's friend? She's usually quite shy." Divider froze. His ears twitched. "Y-Yes. She's a great f-friend." he said nervously, stuffing his face. Then Divider heard Flutter shy whisper something. "Scarlet. I thought you invited Maltro. Y'know, the stallion who you kissed?" Scarlet fumed. Divider's eyes stared at her. "I didn't kiss him! He kissed me! It wasn't even a real kiss!!" Flutter shy covered her mouth. "S-Scarlet! Calm down please!" she pleaded. "Maltro leaned in and I flew away! He lied to you! I don't wanna talk to you anymore!" she screamed, right before flying into her room. Divider looked down. "I guess I should leave..." "No! She's just... upset. She wanted this dinner to be perfect for you. And I ruined it." "It wasn't your fault. I'll go talk to her for you. You can come if you'd like." Flutter shy nodded. Divider knocked on the door. "Scarlet? You in there?" he asked. It was quiet for a minute. "Yes." "May I come in?" he asked again. "Please do."

He opened the door and Scarlet drooped her ears. "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have screamed like that. And mom, I'm sorry too." Flutter shy smiled. "You should leave Divider. I don't think it'd be right for you to stay here any longer after what happened." Divider looked away. He leaned closer to whisper something to her. "I see. I understand if you don't want to see me again - Mmph!" Divider felt a slight shove as he tumbled over Scarlet. He caught a glimpse of Flutter shy, but she disappeared before he could look back. His eyes slowly opened as he felt weight on his stomach. "EEP!" Scarlet shook her head. She had landed right on top of him! Her muzzle touching his. She was so close that he could feel the touch of her feathers. They both blushed intensively. "Aha... some situation we're in..." Scarlet muttered. "We should... Scarlet... What are you-" Scarlet started to lean closer and closer until her lips pressed against his. She didn't even notice, considering her eyes were closed. Divider felt a short tingle of excitement overcome himself. Her wings felt soft and he laid flat on the floor.

"S-Scarlet!" he finally shouted. She popped open her eyes and her face moved away from his. "I'm sorry!! I-I didn't even n-notice!" she stammered. "I d-don't know what happened!! It was like s-something took over!" Divider believed her. What had happened was real alright. "Scarlet I think it was-" but before he could finish, Scarlet fled into the blanket, blushing. Divider stood up and awkwardly walked out. Flutter shy was waiting. "Well... how'd it go?" she asked. Divider looked away and continued walking. When he finally made it out, he wiped his face.

She kissed me!
