The School bell rang. All the other fillies and colts were walking out with candy in their saddlebags. Everypony was eager to go home and celebrate Hearts and Hooves Day with their families, but one colt didn't go home. His name was Truffle Shuffle. He told his parents that he had to help with the school newspaper, but he was really doing something he wanted to do for a long time.

“You can do this Truffle!” He said to himself, pacing around the school door scared out of his wits. ”Just ask Miss Cheerilee if she will be your special somepony. What could go wrong?”

He was more anxious than ever before as he opened the school door. He heard sniffling from somewhere in the room.

“Oh, hi Truffle! Did your family get mixed up on who was picking you up again?” Cheerilee asked, trying to sound as professional as possible.

“No, It’s just, well…” Truffle said stuttering.

“What is it?” Cheerilee said, blowing her nose.

“Uhh….. What's wrong miss Cheerilee?” He said stalling.

“Oh, it’s nothing to worry about Truffle!”

“Really, ’cause you look sad.” Truffle said concerned.

“It’s adult stuff, you won't find it interesting.”

“I'll listen, you always listen to we have to say. Why can't I?”

Truffle’s face was just so adorable and caring she couldn't say no.

“All right, buddy, I’ll tell you,” Cheerilee said, quite somber. She sat down on the floor in a defeated manner. “You know Applebloom’s big brother Big Mac?”

“Yeah”

“Well you see, he told me that, umm, that he was very sorry. He found somepony else named Marble Pie. He felt that she was…”

“She was what?” Truffle asked, kinda sad.

“That she is, a better fit for him than I am!” Cheerilee lost control of her professional tone and curled into a ball. The cubby colt gently wrapped his small hooves around her warm body. Cheerilee smiled a little, and cried over his shoulder as Truffle stroked her back as his mother did to him when he was sad.

“Truffle, am I just a horrible pony? Am I ugly? Why doesn't anypony like me?” She says.

“You’re not ugly or horrible! You're the most beautiful wonderful teacher in the world!”

Cheerilee smiles, stands up, and blows her nose.

“Thank you. You are such a nice guy!” Cheerilee said smiling.”Now hon, what was it you wanted to ask me?”

Truffle Shuffle stuttered and said, ”Oh, it’s not important!”

“Sure it is, you stayed after class to tell me! Come on, please?”

Truffle Shuffle cringed but said with pride, ”Will you be my special somepony?”

Cherilee paused for a moment. She’d had students who had crushes on her, but none who told her up front!

“You're making this up to make me feel better, aren't you?” She asked, mildly skeptical.

“No, I love you! You're the greatest teacher ever! You make learning so much fun! You’re so kind and caring that it makes want to be a better pony! You made me like reading! And gosh you're a knockout miss Cheerilee. You know that! You're the most beautiful thing in the world! You make me feel happy! You mean everything to me! That's why I made you this!”

Truffle shuffle handed her a green gemstone cut in the shape of a heart. Cheerilee was stunned! She had never been given a such a nice gift!

“Where did you get this?” Cheerilee asked with shock.

“I snuck into the Diamond Dog’s territory and dug there.”

Cheerilee looked at the gem.”Oh, sweetie, this is beautiful!”

“So will you be my special somepony?” Truffle asked, with his big eyes wide open.

Cherilee knew she couldn't break the little guys heart. Though it was illegal to date a foal, there was nothing wrong with being good friends with one. And that's what they would be.

“Yes, Truffle, I'd love to!” Cheerilee said with a tear.

Truffle leaped into her hooves and hugged her. Cheerilee even kissed him on the forehead.Truffle felt like the luckiest guy ever.

Cheerilee let go and said, ”Now, should I walk you home?”

“Sure!” Truffle said.

As Cheerilee locked the schoolhouse, Truffle asked her one more question. ”So do you wanna go on a date tomorrow?”

Cheerilee laughed.”I don't think we're at that level yet. Why don't you stop by tomorrow and we can have some Tea and cookies?”

“I’d love that,” Truffle said.

The two of them walked off feeling very happy.
