Chapter 15: Misunderstanding Teachers

I groaned as we waited beside Fretus. Rainbow was busy today, so I had to do this myself. I am not a good speaker. I just know that I'm going to mess up. I hear the door open and I stand up and walk in. The teacher was filing her papers and she looked up and almost gasped.

"Hello Ms..." I said raising an eyebrow. She coughed and reestablished herself.

"My name's Treasured Ember," Ember said.

"Hello Ms Ember, my name's Sam Smith, Fretus' father," I said trying my best not to feel angry.

"Ah, well Mr Smith, I assume you're not married?"

"I'm married, it's just that my wife isn't able to be here right now because of work," I said raising an eyebrow.

"Well, why are you here?" She asked impatiently.

"Well, my son was bullied yesterday, and you didn't even listen to him just because said bully was a nice kid to you," I said trying my best not to glare.

"Well, that is a fact Mr Smith, he is a good child. He's never been reported for bullying," she said. I sighed.

"Ms Ember, I hate to break it to you, but that doesn't mean he is not a bad kid," I said,

"Of coarse it does, he is my son after all, so I know him best," she said starting to get more impatient. I sighed, as I am about to give up. I know for a fact that I'm not good with arguments.

"Is it also a reason to not listen to my son at all?" I asked raising an eyebrow. I then remembered something. "Because teachers are supposed to listen to children when they do have a problem," I said now using common sense. The teacher then rolled her eyes.

"Mr Smith, I respect you and all, but Debbles is not a bully, if he was, most of the kids would have tried to report by now," she said glaring at me.

"How many kids did you cut off when they tried to report Debbles bullying?" I asked raising an eyebrow even higher. She opened her mouth but then closed it. Bingo. "I'm not saying your not a good teacher Ms Ember, I'm just saying that you need to listen to any problem, even if it includes your son being the problem," I said. She looked down kind of embarrassed. I almost chuckled. "Hey look on the bright side, I mentioned something about it before it got worse," I said patting her back. She sighed and nodded.

"I just can't imagine my son being a bully though," she said.

"Hey, bullies can be like that," I said. She nodded and she told me to tell Fret us to not come in for Saturday school. I nodded and she told me that Debbles will apologize to Fret us and I thanked her. Before I walked out she stopped me.

"Hey, thank you for not saying that I was a terrible teacher," she said. I nodded and walked out. When I got home Rainbow looked at me with a concerned look. I smiled.

"It's okay Rainbow, for once in my life I actually won in an argument," I said and she smirked.

"Think you'll win against me?" She asked.

"Not in a million years," I said while sitting down beside her.

"Why?" She asked looking at me.

"Because you're too stubborn," I said smiling. "Keyword: too," I said. She punched my arm playfully.

"I'm not that stubborn," she said. I nodded and smiled like I was actually listening. I told Fretus what happened and he smiled.

"Thank you daddy," he said hugging me. I smiled and he went off. I went to check the mail, and saw that there was a letter from Pinkie.

Dear Sammy and Dashie and Wingy,

I'm inviting you to a birthday party for Ivory! This invite is also for Applecake, whose birthday is tomorrows!!! So please come!

Signed Pinkie and Maxy!

PS: Bring a gift!

I looked at Rainbow. She nodded. Fretus was excitedly nodding his head when we asked him if he wanted to come along.

"I can't wait to see Max and Pinkie! Along with Jacob and Fluttershy!" I chuckled at his excitement.

"You'll also see their children," I added. He nodded quickly.

"I just can't wait!!!" Fretus said as he jumped around.

"Woah there Pinkie, it's going to be tomorrow, not five seconds," I said. He giggled. After everything that happened today, I'm just going to sleep. I honestly felt terribly tired. I didn't think about it at first, but I felt a tug on my shirt by Rainbow. I woke up and rubbed my eyes. I looked around. It's dark and the clock said 11:55. I yawned. "How long was I asleep?" I asked. She looked up in thought.

"About six hours," she said chuckling. I stretched.

"Rainbow, I'm old," I said. She rolled her eyes and patted my back.

"Don't sorry old timer, you have enough fuel for little old me?" She asked. I instantly got up, and ran to the bedroom. She giggled. "Fell for it didn't you?"

"Good one Dashie!" I almost yelled so she could hear me from down the hall.
