Sweet Dreams and Fluttershy, a very shy stallion having an evening tea with a very shy mare. Everyday they have the same tea at the same spot at the same time of day. Is this simply two friends enjoying their time together, or is this more then that?

Sweet Dreams, a shy stallion, having an evening tea with Fluttershy, a shy mare. Every day they have tea together, making the same conversations, sitting in the same place, drinking at the same time. Yet Sweet Dreams is starting to wonder, is there a reason for these evening teas? More then just two friends enjoying their time together? Or is this something more important, bigger then what he actually thinks.

Three thirty, a time of tea, a situation bigger then meets the eye.

Tea Time

Three thirty, tea time again. Every day for a while now Sweet Dreams had met with Fluttershy at the top of a hill. A place that only he and she knew about. It had a single tree in the middle of a large grassy field and a waterfall several yards away. The sun was shining in the bright blue sky, and the birds could be heard chirping from all around. The grass was well watered, and the waterfalls water had never looked cleaner. Sweet Dreams wasn't sure why no pony else knew about this place, yet he never seemed to question it either. He waved to Fluttershy as he made his way to their usual spot. Sitting down on the red and white checkered blanket, Sweet Dreams said in a calm, gentle voice, "Hello Fluttershy, how are you doing today?"

"I'm doing well, you?" said Fluttershy, while petting Angel (she brings him along occasionally).

"I'm okay, I received a bit of a fright from your friend Rainbow Dash during work today. But I'm sure she didn't mean to scare me".

"Oh my, what did she do to frighten you?" asked Fluttershy.

"Well we were moving a few storm clouds into Pony Ville, its time for the fall rain to start you see, and she accidently bumped her cloud into mine. The clouds nearly hit both of us with lightning you see" said Sweet Dreams.

"Goodness, no pony got hurt did they?" asked Fluttershy.

"No, everypony was fine. A little shock won't hurt us, although, its still scary when it does happen".

"Well its a good thing no pony got hurt, would you like some tea?"

"Yes please".

As Fluttershy poured their tea into their tea cups, Sweet Dreams looked to the water fall and smiled. "The water fall looks really refreshing today".

"It has been rather hot lately for it for be fall" said Fluttershy, handing him his tea cup.

"Good thing we brought those rain clouds" said Sweet Dreams before taking a sip.

"Would you like a carrot cake with your tea?" asked Fluttershy.

"Yes please" said Sweet Dreams.

For the next hour Sweet Dreams and Fluttershy talked while drinking tea and eating carrot cake. Angel acted a bit rude at one point but started behaving after Fluttershy threatened to take away his cherry pie dessert after tonight's dinner.

They talked about the weather and Discord and friends and Pony Ville. About manes, animals, and their friends.

Soon however, too soon to Sweet Dreams, the hour had passed and it was now four thirty.

"I guess I should be going" said Fluttershy.

"Do you have to leave now? We can stay a bit longer, i-if you like" said Sweet Dreams.

"Sorry I can't, I really must get going. I promised Rarity I would meet her at the spa. But I'm free tomorrow, we can do this again, if you like". said Fluttershy.

"Okay" said Sweet Dreams, giving his friend a hug. "See you tomorrow then".

"Bye" said Fluttershy, releasing their hug and walking away.

Sweet Dreams couldn't help but stare at Fluttershy as she walked away, taking the picnic basket, angel, and blanket with her. He didn't like watching her leave, he enjoyed spending his time with her. It was his most favorite of things to do. Fluttershy was actually all he could think of. Her sweet, calm, and quiet voice. How kind she was to animals. Everything about her made Sweet Dreams feel pleasant, and comfortable. He blushed just thinking about the hug he had given her. He knew what these feelings meant, he had known for a while now. It wasn't until just recently that he had accepted these feelings and decided that it was time to express them.

"I'll tell her how I feel tomorrow, at our tea time" said Sweet Dreams, confidently. He then walked home, nervous about the next day.

"I'm doing well" said Fluttershy, pulling tea cups out of a picnic basket.

"Where's angel?" asked Sweet Dreams.

"Oh I decided not to bring him today. He was acting cranky before we left. So, how are you today?"

"I'm okay, I received a bit of a fright from your friend Rainbow Dash during work today. But I'm sure she didn't mean to scare me".

"Oh my, what did she do to frighten you?" asked Fluttershy.

Time for Tea

Three thirty, tea time again. Every day for a while now Sweet Dreams had met with Fluttershy at the top of a hill. A place that only he and she knew about.

But tomorrows today, so why didn't I tell her? . . . Wait, did I say I was going to tell her my feelings today? Was that yesterday? Oh dear, I can't seem to remember. Maybe its the heat, I should get home and rest, clear my head out." said Sweet Dreams as he walked home. feeling very confused.
