A Unexpected Romance of A Showmare
Helping Trixie
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTrixie, Twilight, and I were on our way to meet up with Twilight's friends Trixie being a bit nervous so i try to strike a conversation to get her mind off of what was make her so nervous.
"So Miss Lulamoon-"
"Please just call me Trixie." Trixie simply smiles which causes me to smile.
"Very well Trixie. Why don't you tell me a bit about yourself?"
"Well Trixie is a traveling showmare i put on shows of magic for other ponies to enjoy. Though Trixie isn't as good as she would like to be." I look at Trixie confused.
"Why are you speaking in third person?" Trixie blushes out of embarrassment.
"Oops i did it again didn't i?" Twilight giggles and nods. "I Apologize i used to talk in third person in the past but i am trying to change that like i changed myself." I nod and being a bit curious of what she is talking about.
"What do you mean by changed?" Trixie immediately has a depressed look on her face as she stares at the ground.
"Lets just say Trix-i haven't always been a good pony." You put a wing around her trying to comfort her.
"If you like you can tell me about it if you are comfortable with it that is but i wont force you." Trixie nods and tells me about the incident with the Ursa Minor and the entire time she was in Ponyville at that time.
"That's pretty much what happened." I nod as i give her a comforting smile.
"Well i can kind of understand why you are nervous to see Twilight's friends now but what you did wasn't that horrible. Everypony makes mistakes from time to time. What matters is you are taking responsibility for your actions. I am sure everything will be fine." Trixie gave me a small smile but then went back to staring at the ground.
If you knew what i did to them after that then you wouldn't be saying that. Trixie thought to herself.
As Twilight, Trixie, and I were walking many of the ponies in town were giving her angry glares that felt like daggers. Trixie and Twilight noticed this as well as tears started to form in Trixie's eyes until me and Twilight sent them angry glares back. Trixie still had tears in her eyes regardless because she felt guilty for what she has done. We arrived to a spot where Twilight's friends were waiting for us with a picnic set up. They noticed us and started smiling and waving until they noticed Trixie which caused their happy expressions turn to expressions of anger. Rainbow Dash was the first to speak up.
"Hey Twi glad you could make it." Rarity nodded and smiled at me and Twilight.
"Yes and it is very nice to see you joining us as well Fiction." Applejack though continued to have an angry look on her face.
"Yes we are happy to see you two, but what is SHE doing here?!" She points as Trixie which causes her to back up in fear until i wrapped a wing around her again in comfort.
"Yeah Twi what gives? Why did you bring HER here she isn't wanted here." Tears once again began to form in Trixie's eyes as Twilight began to speak.
"SHE is the reason i called you all here. I want you all to be friends with her and help Ponyville to forgive her."
"WHAT?!" All of her friends yelled in unison.
"Darling you can't be serious?!" Applejack nodded to Rarity's response.
"Yeah Twilight how can you expect us to forgive her after what she has done?!" Pinkie Pie also nodded.
"I usually love to make new friends Twilight but Trixie is a big mean meany pants!" That's when my anger began to grow. Rainbow once again decided to speak.
"We are sorry Twi but we can't be friends with a monster like her!" That's when Trixie burst into unrelenting tears and i couldn't take this anymore.
"You all should be ashamed of yourselves! Here she is trying to make amends and make up for her mistakes and all you can do is ridicule and criticize her?! I though you was supposed to be the bearers of the Elements of Harmony you all told me about at the party! Elements of Harmony my flank! None of you deserve to be bearers of the Elements! You have all accepted Discord and forgave him for what he has done and yet his actions are far worse than Trixie's, so why can't you do the same for her?! I HAVE NEVER MET SUCH A GROUP OF HYPOCRITICAL FRIENDS IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!" As soon as my ranting was done all they could do was stare at me slack-jawed with expressions of shock on their faces. Even Trixie and Twilight were in shock at my outburst. Fluttershy was slightly frightened from my outburst but decided to speak her mind.
"I am sorry girls but he is right. If we can give Discord a chance why can't we give Trixie a chance? We can't hold a grudge on Trixie. We need to give her a chance." They all now began to feel guilty at their actions.
"Your Right sugarcube. We are sorry." I now began to feel guilty from my outburst.
"I am sorry too girls. I didn't mean the hurtful things i said but it isn't fair of what you are doing to Trixie. She deserves a chance to show that she is sorry for what she has done and that she wants to make up for it." Rarity nods.
"And you are perfectly right darling your outburst was understandable and we should be ashamed of ourselves. Trixie we are sorry for the things we said we hope you can forgive us and are still willing to let us help you." Trixie wiped her eyes and smiled.
"Of course i forgive you. You have every right to be angry with me and i would love the help." Applejack looks at Twilight and Trixie.
"I am sorry too and i am willing to help but i still don't trust you yet Trixie. It's going to take a lot for me to trust you." Trixie nodded in understanding and Twilight sighed.
"Well its a start at least. Come on lets eat no since in letting this picnic go to waste."
Well all sat down and enjoyed our picnic. We all sat and talked as we ate. After the picnic Twilight sent me and Trixie ahead so she could talk to her friends alone for a minute.
"Thank you girls for agreeing to this but one thing i can tell Trixie has a thing for Fiction Quill and i think he might have a thing for her too."
They all gasped and Rarity felt a little jealous. "I thought he said he wasn't interesting in having any relationships."
Twilight simply nodded. "He did and i can tell he wasn't lying but right now this is only speculation and if he does have feelings for her then he might change his mind only time will tell but i am mentioning this because if he does like i am thinking then i don't want any of you bringing up the Alicorn Amulet incident in front of him. If they do want to be together i don't want that getting in the way of that happening. Maybe if they end up together then it will help make Trixie a better pony." They all nod and Rarity reluctantly nodded too. Afterwards they all went home and after escorting Twilight and Trixie back to the castle you headed home to get a good nights sleep.
.
It was morning and once again i decided to begin the day with some puzzles and breakfast. Soon after instead of immediately looking for material to write i decide to exercise my legs and wing muscles for a while. Rainbow Dash and Trixie spotted me as i was exercising and decided to say hello.
"Yo FQ! what are you up to?" I stopped and decided to take a break and talk for a little bit.
"Oh nothing much Rainbow just exercising my leg and wing muscles. I may be a writer but that doesn't mean i will allow myself to get out of shape. I am guessing FQ is my nickname for you?"
"Yep i come up with nicknames for all of my friends and yours was hard to work with so i just went with FQ." I chuckle as i land on the ground.
"That's perfectly fine actually it does have a nice ring to it."
"Well duh! because if someone as awesome as me gives you a nickname then it definitely is an awesome nickname." Trixie giggled as she nodded
"I will admit Rainbow Dash you are pretty awesome." I chuckled as at Rainbow's proud smile.
"So i take it you are the first one hanging out with Trixie today?" Rainbow Dash nodded
"Yeah i felt like i needed to be the first one to hang out with her and help her out." I smirk
"Because you are awesome right?" All three of us laughed before Rainbow answered.
"Well THAT and because i felt horrible for calling Trixie a monster yesterday and i felt like i needed to make it up to her." I smile at Rainbow Dash for her actions.
"Well Rainbow i must say that you are one loyal friend." Rainbow Dash smiled as she nodded.
"Of course. I never leave my friends or Ponyville hanging. I am the Element of Loyalty after all." I nod as i stretch my wings before turning to Trixie.
"So Trixie how is Ponyville treating you so far?" Trixie gave a weak smile.
"Things are doing a little better but most of Ponyville still doesn't want me around. What about you? How are you enjoying Ponyville?" I give Trixie a warm smile.
"I am enjoying Ponyville so far. So long as they stay civil and don't try to run you out of town." This caused Trixie to blush and Rainbow Dash smirked.
hehehe Well well i guess Twi was right. I start to hover in the air.
"Well i need to get back to my exercise. As i said i need to stay in shape afterwards i need to to find some new material to write about or at least try." We share a laugh as Trixie seemed disappointed but smiled.
"Will i be seeing you around town again today?" I smile as i nod.
"I am sure you will Trixie maybe we can go grab some lunch in a little bit together." This caused Trixie to have a bright smile.
"I would very much like that." I nod as i fly off to resume my exercises. Rainbow Dash couldn't help but smirk at Trixie and she looked at Rainbow with a confused look. "What?"
"You like him don't you?" Trixie blushed heavily.
"N-No i don't! I just think he is a great friend and it would be rude to turn down his invitation to lunch." Rainbow laughed as she rolled her eyes.
"Whatever you say Trix. Anyways i have to go home and feed Tank. Have fun on your date!" With that Rainbow Dash flew off to Cloudsdale. with Trixie giving her an agitated look before walking off back to the Castle.
A couple hours later i freshen myself up before going to take Trixie out to lunch. "What is the matter with me? Why do i feel nervous? I can't feelings for Trixie.... Can i?"
You leave you house to go pick up Trixie from the castle. After you knock on the door it opens to reveal Spike standing in the doorway. "Oh hi Fiction! what brings you here?"
"Just here to pick up Trixie to take her out to lunch." Spike smiles as he goes and fetches Trixie.
Trixie arrives outside just moments later with a big smile on her face. "It's nice to see you again Fiction! I really appreciate this."
I smile as i blush lightly. "Its no trouble at all Trixie in fact it is my pleasure." Wow she has such a beautiful smile.... There i go again! I already said i wasn't here for romance just for writing stories. Friends are the only thing i will accept! "So then shall we be off?" Trixie smiled and nodded.
"Yes we shall." I continue to smile as i spend my time with Trixie during lunch it wasn't a long but i enjoyed the time i spent with her regardless.
After lunch and walking Trixie back to the castle i began to search for some new blossoming romances but once again i found nothing so i decided to head some and prepare some dinner and head to bed. I start to think that maybe i should have a talk with Discord tomorrow about his feelings for Fluttershy. After dinner i take a quick shower before relaxing in bed and letting the peace of slumber take me until the next day.
