I Need To Tell You Something

Fluttershy

It was the day of Fluttershy's baby shower, where Band was elsewhere still finding a second job while Fluttershy sits at Sugarcube Corner with her friends. He belly has grown a little since she had told Band about the newcomer and she has gone to wearing blouses.

"Who's ready for cake!?" Pinkie asks, bringing out a big red cake topped with white frosting.

"I could have some," Fluttershy says.

"I'm sure you could," Rarity agrees, "I've heard that girls who become pregnant tend to eat more then they usually do."

"Oh," Fluttershy says, feeling a little concerned.

"Oh, but don't worry, dear. It's natural."

"Okay," She says. Pinkie walks over to them and places the cake on the table in the middle of everyone and slices a piece of cake for Fluttershy.

"Just save some for me," Pinkie jokes. Fluttershy looks at her cake and remembers Band for a reason.

"Girls," Fluttershy says. Everyone looks to her, "do you think Band could be an okay dad?"

It's silent for a moment and Twilight says, "Well, that's not our place."

"Oh, sorry."

"Fluttershy," Dash comes in to the conversation, "if you had to ask me. I'd say that, based on past experiences and challenges he's overcome, Band may surprise you."

Fluttershy smiles, "He might. Thank you, Dash."

Band

"I need a job, Derpy," Band said to her at the front post office counter.

"Well, we may have an opening that opened recently," She said, picking up a notepad and flipping through the pages. One eye fixed on the notepad, "Yeah, right here. We need a deliverer that can drive through town correctly. I can't really drive." She blushes slightly.

"Great," Band sighed, "So when can I apply."

"Just write out this application," Derpy places a paper on the counter that she got out of her desk, "and you'll see if you're hired."

"Kay, thanks," Band grabs the paper and fills it out to hand it back to Derpy.

"Alright," She says placing it in an empty basket labelled "Application", "You're halfway there."

Band walks out and Bulk Biceps calls. Band answers as he walks to his car, "Yeah?"

"Dude! Are you coming to hang out, or what!?" Bulk screams enthusiastically.

Band cringes and pulls his head away from the phone. Bulk always screamed into the phone, "Yeah, man. I'm on my way," He opens the driver's door and gets in, "Just be less loud. Kay?"

"Will do!" Bulk yells a little quieter.

Band hangs up and calls Fluttershy.

"Ring... Ring... Click."

"Yes, Band?" She asks.

"Just wanted to check on you," He says, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah," She says happily, "Thank you."

"Kay. Just call if you need me."

"Did you find a job, yet?" Fluttershy asks.

"I found a place and signed an application, now I'm going to Bulk Biceps' party he's throwing me."

"Alright, love you."

"Love you, too."

"Click."

Fluttershy

Fluttershy hangs up and stuffs the phone in her pocket.

"What'd he need?" Apple Jack asked.

"He was just checking to see if I'm okay," Fluttershy answers.

"See there," Applejack says, giving a smile, "That shows how much he cares."

"We're out of cake," Pinkie says, "but I can make more!" She gives a gleaming smile.

"No," Fluttershy declines, "that's enough cake."
