A Mother's Love
Chapter 7
Previous ChapterNext ChapterScootaloo yawned as she stretched, today seemed like it would be nice. She crawled out of bed and became tangled in the blankets. She struggled to escape, once she was free from the bed sheets she stood up and looked out the window.
The sun peaked over Ponyville from behind a few clouds. Suddenly Rainbow Dash wispid past a cloud and broke it. Scootaloo waved at her, but the cyan pegasus didn't notice.
Scootaloo walked away from the window and down stairs. In the kitchen her dad was making omelets. They smelled so good, he put some spices and cheese in them. She sat down and waited for the food to be done.
"Morning dad." Scootaloo smiled.
"Morning Scootaloo." He replied as he put the omelet on her plate.
Scootaloo picked at the omelet to see what it's contents might consist of. She smiled as it was only a cheese omelets, she ate it happily. Finishing before her dad, Scootaloo jumped form her seat and put her plate in the sink. The phone rang and she raced to awnser it.
"Hello, Scootaloo here." She said into the speaker.
"Scoots, it's Apple Bloom. Sweetie Belle and everypony else want you to come to the park and play volleyball." Apple Bloom said.
"Awesome!" Scootaloo put her hoof on the speaker, "dad can I go to the park with my friends?"
He stared at her as if to remind her that she was groaned, "I guess..."
Scootaloo squealed, "ok I'll see you girls in a bit!" Scootaloo hung up the phone and ran out of the house.
Soon she was nearing the park, Scootaloo stood at the park's entrance and smiled. The warm sun hugged at her back as she walked inside. She ventured off to the volleyball net where her friends all waited for her. She ran up to them excitedly.
"Now we have an even number of players." Silver Spoon laughed.
"Who's side can I play on?" Scootaloo asked.
"Me an Sweetie Belle's side." Apple Bloom replied.
"This is going to be awesome!" Sweetie Belle jumped.
"So how do you play volleyball anyway?" Silver Spoon asked.
Dinkie looked at a piece of paper, "we need two teams of six ponies."
"Darn it!" Apple Bloom stomped.
"Tennis?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"We don't have any Tennis balls or rackets." Scootaloo sat down in the grass.
"Well...I could go and 'barrow' my dad's, maybe he won't mind..." Diamond Tiara smiled.
"It's took hard a game, don't worry about it." Dinkie shrugged. Suddenly a sound rang out in the distance. However, this wasn't just any sound. This sound was that of every kids dream on a hot summer's day, this was the angelic melody of an ice cream truck.
They ran to a place in the line, the number of ponies behind them seemed to grow larger. They watched a pale yellow unicorn with red and orange hair run towards some porta potties. Scootaloo looked up at the sky, she wondered if it could get any hotter outside, she hoped it wouldn't.
"This is taking forever!" Sweetie Belle complained.
"We've only been here for like...five minutes." Apple Bloom replied.
"Yeah but it's super hot out here!" Silver Spoon nodded.
They waited for a while, that same yellow unicorn from earlier seemed to be disturbing everypony in the line. Soon the pony inside the ice cream truck called out to the crowd that there was no more ice cream, "Can I tell you girls something?" Scootaloo asked as they walked away from the ice cream truck.
"Sure, what is it?" Apple Bloom asked.
"I think my dad and Rainbow Dash might actually like each other!" Scootaloo grinned.
"That's awesome!" Silver Spoon smiled.
"Maybe they will let us be flower fillies when they get married!" Sweetie Belle grinned jokingly.
"Yeah maybe." Scootaloo shrugged.
"Hey, let's get ice cream at Sugar Cube Corners." Dinkie smiled.
Scootaloo shrugged, "I don't know, you girls go ahead I'll just go home and do something."
"Why?"
"Well I'm grounded, my dad said I could go because he thought it might be fun, he never said I could go and get ice cream." Scootaloo shrugged again and walked home, she waved good bye to her friends. They waved back and then ran to go to Sugar Cube Corners.
Scootaloo opened the door of her house and stepped into the kitchen. Her dad wasn't at home, he'd left a note for her. She picked up and read aloud, "Scootaloo, I went out to get some things. I'll be back late probably. There is some left overs from last night in the fridge, you should heat them up for thirty seconds in the microwave."
Scootaloo rolled her eyes, her dad worried to much. She walked to the fridge and took out a plate of casserole. She nuked it in the microwave for twenty minutes insted of thirty. Once it was done she sat down alone and ate.
It wasn't really dinner time but, this would work for lunch to. When she was done she ran into the living room and turned on the TV. When it turned on, it started to play a history about the wonderbolts. She sat down on the couch and watched it.
Soon Tornado was home, he said good bye to Rainbow Dash and walked inside his house. Scootaloo was sleeping on the couch, some documentary was just starting. He smiled and turned off the TV, he looked down at Scooloo. The orange filly was peacefully sleeping, he picked up a blanket and spread it out over her, before going up stairs to his room he kissed hee on the forehead.
Scootaloo woke up and yawned, she tried to move her hooves but they were tied up by the blanket. She hastily untied herself and jumped off the couch. She ran into the kitchen, her dad was heating up some casserole for breakfast.
"So what did you buy last night?" Scootaloo asked.
"Huh?" Her dad looked at her confused, suddenly he nodded, "oh...Well, I realized we didn't really need anything."
Scootaloo raised an eye brow, she'd been up all night waiting for him to get home. She sat down and looked at her food. Her dad put his in the microwave, Scootaloo didn't believe him.
"Took you an awful long time to get home...I was up for like two hours..." Scootaloo shrugged.
"Well I got to go now, see you later. I'm late." Tornado jumped up and ran outside.
"But you have like ten minutes to get-" Scootaloo was interrupted by the door slam. She groaned and jumped gently from her seat. What was her dad hiding?
Author's Note
I hope you enjoy this..the story got 4 dislikes, maybe because I took forever to update? I mean...I've been updating every 1-4 days...this is almost be two weeks...most people write a chapter each week. idk...
Anyway...
I for one hate omelets. My dad makes them waaay to thick. It's just something about ALL that cooked yoke and no egg whites, I don't like scrambled eggs either. Hmmm....
As for the Part with the Ice Cream truck...remember that one shot I wanted to write because chapter 5 in this story wasn't coming along as nicely as I'd hoped? Yeah...that was a good story wasn't it?
And that part last chapter with Dashie and Tornado, I just needed extra words XD let's just say they both were sitting down talking and stood up at the same time and came nose to nose, the reason they blushed was because of the previous conversation.
I have just noticed I've been spelling Dinky wrong XD it's to late to fix it I'm sorry...
Enjoy!
