Generous deliveries

It was 8:45; normally Peter would be on his way to class, but today he had a few stops on the way to make. He rummaged through his school bag for a few books that some of his borrowers had specifically asked to see if he could find them. These weren't just single issues in bags; but collected editions that a few, "friends" I guess you could call them wanted, sometimes it was the rest of the story a single issue was only a part of like Rarity wanting the collected edition of Green Lantern Secret Origin after reading the second part published as a single issue, or the first stop on his rounds....

Lyra Heartstrings jimmied and struggled with the dial lock of her locker, the damn thing was always stuck, "Stupid cheap lock," she said hitting the side in anger. Her BFF Bonbon closed the locker just across from her and took a padlock with a key from her bag and locked it for her.

"There, I think that'll be far better then the crap the school issues to us." BonBon added before handing the key over to Lyra.

"Oh Bonnie where would I be without you?" She asked giving her a friendly hug. Peter walked up to the both of them, a book in his hands.

"Hey girls," he said cheerfully as he handed Bon Bon her book. "Here you go Bon Bon, one Best of Betty and Veronica. I gotta say you two are an awful lot like B&V, only not...split over a certain redhead." He said; taking almost all his reserves of common courtesy to not add a certain assumption why being because they where more interested in each other, something a lot of the chatty gossips where quick to spread around. Bon Bon smiled at him playfully before running a hand over his cheek, in a very uncannily similar manner to the Adagio girl from a while back.

"Well maybe that's because we just haven't found a boy we'd like to spend time with...Petey." She said with a soft coo as she plucked a bit of his brown hair, before she giggled softly. Lyra giggled playfully and gave him a soft pat on his head like a little puppy she had once. Both girls backed off from him blushing bright red and giggling like...well school girls.

"Really? Is that so?" Peter added blushing hard himself as the hands holding his other deliveries got shaky and he bounced on his toes nervously.

"Mhhmhhh," Lyra added with a nod. "You see most of the guys around school are so...they only have one thing on their mind know what I mean?" She said nuzzling his cheeks and Bon Bon's, "and they're all too busy stroking their egos or bragging about how their parents got them cars for wining the homecoming, and all that other Freudian B.S." Bon Bon added as she softly rubbed her nose against his.

"What's your point Bon Bon?" Peter asked shaking like a leaf.

"Well...we would maybe hang around a boy, If I could only find one that appreciates us for who we are and would be genuinely interested in US, not just what we can...offer..." Bon Bon said with a very playful girlish giggle.

"Caramels," Lyra added quickly "Bonnie really knows how to make drop dead delicious candy." Lyra said taking some homemade mint chews from her pocket and eating them.

"And you're all types of fun to hang out with Lye, as for you mister," she said placing a finger on his chest. I like you Petey," Bon said to him with a little pinch on his cheek. "If you ever want to say get something sweet at sugarcube corner after school...you know where to find us." She said giving a little pout and sashay of her hips she whispered into Lyra's ear "Finally a guy that's as sweet as you..maybe now people will stop talking."

"Did it bother you that they did?" She whispered back.

"Only becasue that they where...slightly wrong...and the fact that the only options around this place aren't my type." She said with a chuckle and blush. They walked of feeling as cheeky as they could ever be.

"I'd prefer the Sweet Stuff Bakery if that's okay with you!" He called down the hall to them; he checked the clock. "Oh damn, it's almost nine o'clock." "I still got six deliveries to make." He hurried down the hall losing track of where he was going and ran head first into an open locker door. When the birds cleared from his eyes he gave his head a shake to find himself looking up at a purple haired and ivory girl with a pleated skirt and blouse on. "Oh hello Rarity, funny running into you here." He said handing her a copy of Deadpool: Vol 1 by Daniel Way.

"Oh Darling I think you ran into my locker a bit too hard, I asked if you could find a copy of Green Lantern: Circle of fire." She said holding a hand out and helping Peter to his feet.

"Oh I guess I did cause this is Pinkie's request...silly me." He gave his head a final shake to clear the daze he was in and found the proper book he promised her. "I gotta say you really have taken a liking to the Green Lantern books Rarity." He said as she took the book happily and placed it in her bag.

"It's the way they remind me so much of my favorite power pony Radiance." She said with a squee hugging her self tightly.

"That's kinda the idea Rarity, Radiance is a parody of the Green lantern mythos, but I think they based her more on the Star Sapphires corps."

"Ohhh they sound divine, can you find me any of their books please darling?" She said giving a starry eyed little puppy eyes that seemed to get most people to do things for her.

"I'm sorry Rarity, but they don't make any Star Sapphire comics. DC comics doesn't like female characters too much, So I guess It only makes sense they'd be a match made in heaven with Cartoon Network."

"Oh...I see," she said with a half heartily sigh of disappointment.

"Hey I know it's not the same, but what don't you take my issue of Power Ponies? It's a Radiance centered issue this month." He said holding the issue out for her.

"Oh Darling; you've done so much as it is, you bought this book for me, and I've done nothing beyond ask. Please if you must give even more let me at least..." He held a hand up smiling.

"No Rarity, I want nothing more than to see you enjoy the printed bounty I bring to my friends and students of Canterlot High." He placed the comic in her hands and gazed into her bright blue starry eyes.

"Darling please...My generous nature says to at least thank you properly."

"Well.....okay Rarity, but no money, you don't need to ever pay me for anything." As he said this, Rarity placed a soft kiss on his cheek and blushed, prompting them both to turn awkwardly away from each other.

"You're a boy after my heart if you keep being so overly generous darling." She said twirling a few locks of her hair blushing.

"I just...want to do what's right and follow the golden rules to live by Rare." He said equally blushing as hard.

"I...I better get going, it's almost..." *RRRRRIIIINNNG!* "Time for class." She took off running to her classroom, leaving the starstruck Peter to gently touch where her lips had made contact with his cheek, her lip gloss like an autograph she left burning on his cheek. He finally got himself together and started to walk down the hall not realizing that the time was 9:07, nor did he see the yellow blazer jacket until he ran into it. Principal Celestia had her arms folded over chest and was tapping her foot as she looked at him with a look of utter discontent.

"Late for class Mr. Turner? Think it might have something to do with these da...darned things." She said pointing to the long-box in his arms.

"Principal Celestia, It wasn't like that." He pleaded softly to her good nature.

"My office...now." She said pointing to her gilded brass sun motif office door.
