Chapter 8
Previous ChapterNext ChapterScootaloo walked out of the school house and stood on the cement steps, her friends were waiting outside for her. She'd been picked to clean the chalk erasers and had just finished. She stepped onto the cool ground and waved to her friends. She ran to the flag pole were they waited.
"Hi girls!" Scootaloo smiled.
"Hi" Sweetie Belle jumped up and down. Apple Bloom, Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara all nodded.
"Hey you girls wanna come over to my house?" Dinky asked, "My mom said it was ok."
"Sounds fun." Apple Bloom nodded.
"Awesome!" Dinky smiled, "it'll be just for a few hours until she gets back from work. I'm usily lonely when I get home." The small purple unicorn shrugged.
"Well let's go then!" Scootaloo smiled, she didn't care that she was grounded, she wanted to hang lol it with her friends.
Soon the six ponies were at the quaint house of Dinky Hooves and her mother. The smell of muffins was very strong. Scootaloo stepped onto the rug that lay in the middle of the room, she looked at the walls. Pictures of Dinky as a baby or with family filled her view.
"This is a really nice house." Sweetie Belle squeaked as she stepped inside.
"Yeah it is!" Apple Bloom agreed.
"Thanks." Dinky smiled as Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara walked into the living room, "we can play a bored game or something."
They walked into her room, "do you have Monopony?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"Yeah, we also have..." Dinky pointed to a small stack of board games, "Game of Pony, SaddleShip and Chess."
"All she'll play is Monopony." Apple Bloom joked.
"Yeah!" Sweetie Belle agreed, "that's all I care about."
"Ok then." Dinky nodded, she then walked over to the stack of games and pulled Monopony out.
"We always play bored games!" Silver Spoon complained, "can't we do something else?"
"Sure why no." Sweetie Belle shrugged, "how about we braid each other's hair?"
"I'm super good at braiding!" Silver Spoon grinned.
"Ok then, I'll get some cookies from the kitchen an we'll be all set, Scootaloo, can you help me? My mom baked a lot of cookies." Dinky smiled.
"Sure." Scootaloo nodded and followed her, "first I got to call my dad and tell him where I am."
"Ok then." Dinky replied.
Scootaloo picked up the phone and called her dad. She was met with his voice mail, he was probably out or something. She sighed, "hey dad, it's Scootaloo. I'm at Dinky's house with my friends. I'm sure that's ok because your not home." She hung up and then reached to catch up with Dinky in the kitchen.
"So were dose your mom keep the cookies?" Scootaloo asked.
"There is a cookie jar on the counter over there next to the sugar and salt." Dinky pointed to the location of the jar.
Scootaloo nodded and walked over to the cookie jar. She picked it up, "Where did your mom get this?"
"My dad gave it to her..." Dinky trailed off, the melody in her voice faded away.
"What's wrong? Did he die or something?"
"No..." Dinky looked down, "He beat me and my mom after he started drinking."
Scootaloo stared in shock at her new friend. How could anypony want to beat her? Scootaloo nodded in silence, "Ok, I understand if you don't want to talk about it."
"Well it's good to talk about things, but maybe some other time." Dinky smiled as she and Scootaloo walked back to her room.
Back in the room Sweetie Belle was crying as Diamond Tiara unotted her mane. Silver Spoon was trying to help, and Apple Bloom was laughing. Dinky stepped inside and Scootaloo sat the cookies down, "What happened here?" Scootaloo asked.
"S-Silver Spoon should n-never braid hair." Sweetie Belle choked sadly. Scootaloo burst out laughing, soon everypony was laughing hard.
After eating launch at Dinky's house, Scootaloo decided to go home. She turned the corner and looked up at the clouds, a few seemed heart shaped. She looked back ahead and continued her journey home.
She soon reached the small two story house and knocked on the door. Rainbow Dash walked out, "Hey I was looking for you." She laughed.
"I was at Dinky's house for launch." Scootaloo smiled.
"Yeah I noticed the voice mail."
Scootaloo walked inside. She was surprised so see her favorite food cooking on the stove, the table set for three. Rainbow Dash stood beside her and then went into the living room, Scootaloo followed. Tornado was sitting on a chair facing them, he smiled and petted a couch cushion, "Sit down sweetie." Tornado said.
Scootaloo sat down on the soft cushion closest to her dad, Rainbow Dash sat on the one next to her. Tornado cleared his throat, "Scootaloo, I've got to explain something to you."
"What is it?" Scootaloo asked, she looked at him and then to Rainbow Dash, then back to Tornado, "Dose it involve Rainbow Dash?"
"Yes..." Tornado nodded, "You see...She and I are kind of dating now."
Rainbow Dash smiled as Scootaloo looked over at her, "Really?" Scootaloo asked with excitement as her eyes grew.
"Yep." Rainbow Dash messed with her hair.
"That's why the table is set for three, Rainbow will be eating with us tonight." Tornado smiled.
Scootaloo grinned and hopped from the couch, "Awesome!" She ran into the kitchen and waited for them. Once she was gone, Tornado and Rainbow Dash shared a smiled and stood up. The walked into the kitchen and prepared themselves for years of happiness.
