Meeting The Fillies

Previous Chapter

The walk home took almost longer than it did the ride there. The stallion knew this was so, because one, his daughters had been teasing him about the dating and foals but two, mostly he was thinking of what to where. Shamrock rolled his eyes and gave a small chuckle after hearing all of his daughters' gossip and finally reaching home.

"Sunset, we're back!" He hollered throughout the house, no response. He trotted inside his room, he heard a slight humming come from inside the bathroom, he knew it was her. He opened the closet, picking out a black tux, with a blue tie. He walked back out into the living room, seeing the girls playing with their dolls. He called his wife again,

"Sunset!" Then finally, she stepped into the room, Shamrock stood stuck in place, his jaw to the floor. His wife wore a beautiful turquoise dress, made of fine lining, her hair was done up neatly, and her glass slippers clicked as she walked in front of her husband.

"It's not too much, is it?" She asked, concerned. Shamrock closed his mouth, then shook his head rapidly. Sunset giggled and started to walk away.

"I'll just get my purse and we'll be on our way." She said. There was a knock at the door, and Shamrock glanced up to the clock, gasping, turning back around, and rushing to the door. He slammed it open with so much force, the pony on the other side gasped and took a few steps backwards before calming down and clearing her throat.

"Hey, remember me? The one-" She started.

"Who's foalsitting for us! Come inside-" Shamrock stated, pausing at the end, realizing he had never caught her name.

"I'm just so cool, to not ask somepony their name before talking them." He thought to himself in a sarcastic tone.

"StarHeart Wavesong. But you can just call me StarHeart." The green unicorn replied.

"Oh. Uh, right, StarHeart, I want you to meet the girls.." He said, pulling StarHeart over to the spot the girls were playing in.

"The eldest is Cinnamon Drop, only by two seconds however." He told, dragging the mare to a green earth pony filly besides Cinnamon Drop.

"This is the second-eldest, Sweet Pea."

"And finally.." Shamrock began,

"ME!" Poinsettia shouted. She flapped her wings, zipping across the floor slowly up to the mare. StarHeart gave a worried fake smile, introducing herself.

"Hi I'm StarHeart..." She mumbled loudly enough for the foal to hear.

"And you already know my name!" The filly yelled, bouncing away.

"No I don't..." StarHeart said, confused. Poinsettia gasped.

"You don't!?" She screamed at StarHeart's face.

"She doesn't!?" She continued, but now looking at her dad. She rolled her eyes and went back onto playing with her siblings.

"Poinsettia." Shamrock finally said.

"Well, if you have any problems..." He began once more, seeing his wife trotting out the room, holding her purse.

"It took me forever to find it but-" Sunset stopped, looking up to StarHeart.

"Who's this?" She asked, curiously.

"Oh, this is the foalsitter!" Shamrock answered, StarHeart shyly waved her hoof to the mare.

"Oh! Really! Nice to meet you!" Sunset Shimmer said.

"I'll be outside." She continued, walking away.

"As I was saying any problems, you have our contact information." He said walking towards the door.

"But-" StarHeart began.

"Bye! Oh, and, good luck." He told her, slamming the door.

"Whoohoo! No parents in the house! Whoop Whoop!" Cinnamon Drop screamed, beginning to jump on the couch. Sweet Pea, just walked to a room, by herself, coming back with a music box, turning it on, and almost blasting StarHeart's ears out. Poinsettia rushed to the kitchen, pulling out the cookie jar and began to munch away. StarHeart frowned and gulped. She thought to herself silently,

"What have I gotten myself into?"
