A Snowflake During Twilight

Caramel's voice came through the door. "Twilight, can we talk for a little bit." More knocking stated to flood through the house. They both knew Caramel wouldn't leave without talking to Twilight. Twilight jumped off of Snow as she was startled by this unexpected visitor. She smiled sheepishly and said "I'll be back in just a second." She trotted into the living room where she could answer the door. She opened the door in the middle of one of Caramel's frantic knocks.

"Twilight." Caramel said unexpectedly. "Caramel what are you doing here, I thought we made this clear." Twilight said almost annoyed. "Twilight, I want to talk about that stallion you've been seeing." said Caramel as he barged in and took a seat on the couch. Twilight took a seat near, but not next to him. "Caramel I think I can see anypony I w..." Twilight was cut off by Caramel. "You just met him! You barley even know him, unlike me. We've been together for so long and you start doing this." Caramel said raising his voice.

"Don't say that Caramel! I've been with him for two days and we've done more than me and you have ever done!" Twilight yelled. Caramel was getting frustrated, and started yelling. "You little slut! You dump me and then say you two have more than we ever had!" Caramel jumped up and got into Twilight's face. He was about to continue when a white stallion crept from the shadows. "You best get out of her face right now!" Snow Flake demanded.

Caramel laughed. "This is him? This is the majestic stallion that is far superior to me?" He laughed some more. "Look buddy, I think we both know it would be best if you left right now." Snow Flake said trying to control his temper. "Really? Your the one I'm supposed to be scared of?" Asked Caramel in a bit of hysteria. Caramel approached the white unicorn and sized him up. Snow Flake did not want to engage as he was not one for violence, but if things got bad he would use a bit of magic to level the playing field.

Snow locked eyes with this stallion and noticed that they were about the same size in muscle build. So he added in his magic and Snow Flake did have the upper hand. But, as he was studying him he caught a right hoof to the jaw. "That's for stealing my girl!" Yelled Caramel. Snow Flake was trying to recover from the sucker punch when he started to taste blood come to his mouth. He then looked up and saw Twilight crying and screaming as Caramel mounted Snow Flake. He Started to deliver blow after blow of his powerful hooves on Snow's face.

Snow started to feel a sudden dizziness com to him, he knew he was about to go out. He started telling himself to block in his mind, so he used his magic and sent Caramel flying into the ceiling, which shook the house a bit. Caramel fell back to the ground and Snow Flake used all of his strength to get back on his feet. Caramel didn't seem very faced by Snow's attack, so he leaped up and resumed his fighting position. Both stallions heard Twilight screaming in the back, yelling for them to stop.

Caramel looked toward her and it was Snow Flake's turn to do some damage. He put all of his strength into a blow with his elbow to Caramel's head. Caramel fell backwards as the blow hurt him this time. He fell on the floor and Snow jumped on top of him, but was met by the hooves of Caramel right in his stomach. This knocked the wind out of Snow and he fell backwards on the floor. Caramel again jumped onto Snow Flake and started pounding on him.

Snow could feel himself drifting out when he saw out the corner of his eye a bright orange pony walking inside. The pony yelled out "Sorry guys I forgot..." but was cut off when he saw Caramel on top of Snow Flake. "Hey, get of my buddy like that!" The pony yelled which made Caramel direct his attention towards this orange pony. At this moment Snow Flake discovered it was Orange Pop.

Pop flew through the air and directed about six quick jabs into Caramel's face. Now Snow Flake could return the sucker punch. With his last bit of strength he reached up and grabbed Caramel and started to put him into a head lock. He was very deep in the head lock, as there was no escape from this move. Snow Flake reared backwards and held on. Pop had stopped hitting him at this point and the room was pretty quiet except for the occasional grunt or two.

Twilight screamed through her tears. "Snow, let him go! Please!" Snow then let go, as hearing the mares voice, but it was too late. Caramel was already knocked out, and not dead. Twilight then trotted over to the couch bawling and sat down. Snow whispered to Orange. "Thanks for the help, I probably would be the stallion knocked out right now if you hadn't shown." Pop sighed and whispered back "No problem bud, just don't get yourself killed. I'm going to take sleeping beauty here to the nurse." Snow didn't like Caramel at all, but he sure didn't want him dead.

Snow was about to walk over to Twilight when he stopped and asked Pop. "Hey, does my face still look alright?" Snow said jokingly. He always tried to find the silver lining in things. Pop giggled a bit and said "Yea, yea your good." He really wasn't that bad off except for the gash across his left cheek and a couple bruises. The blood wasn't looking good on his snow white coat either.

The two brohooved and went their separate ways. Snow trotted toward Twilight and sat down next to her teary, deep, purple eyes. She looked back into his ice blue eyes, but shook her head. "Snow, this has gone by so fast. I just met you and we were just about to have sex. I hardly know you except this urgent feeling I get in my gut that I need to be around you. I mean that has to mean something but. I think we need to take some time." Twilight said through the sobs.

That hurt Snow more than any of the punches Caramel had thrown because this one hit him, right in the heart. "Twilight, the first time I saw you I knew there was something there between us." Snow was cut off by Twilight. "Snow, I am not denying that, I am only saying give me some time, To find out if this is truly love. I do feel something for you, I just don't know what it is." Twilight finally stopped. Snow countered by saying "You told me you loved me though." But as quick as he said it Twilight was also there to say. "I guess I just took it as love when it may have been something else."

Snow was heartbroken. "Twi, what's making you say this now?" Snow said now starting to shed some tears himself. "It's just Caramel coming here telling me I don't know you has really gotten to me. Like I said I just need time." Twilight said then started into a whimpering cry. Snow had heard enough, he had to go home. "Maybe i'll see you around" Snow said starting to cry deeply. He looked at Twilight in a hugging motion but she just shook her head. This made the tears roll, he walked out of the house and down the road back to his apartment. The whole walk home he thought about what exactly had just happened.

It hadn't entirely hit home that Snow's marefriend had pretty much just said they shouldn't see each other anymore. He walked up the steps to his apartment and unlocked the door to find Pop sitting on the chair watching television. "Hey Snow, how'd things go between you and Twi?" Pop asked still focused on the screen. After a few moments he looked at the unresponsive Snow.

He saw the tears welling in his best friends eyes. Now Pop was a very touchy kind of stallion so he hopped up and grabbed his friend in a deep bro hug. Normally this would embarrass Snow, but he needed that at the moment. "Bro..." Was all that Pop was able to say. Pop looked his friend in the eyes and said "Everything is going to be alright." At that moment it started to sink in what had just happened. Snow then went in his room and cried himself to sleep.
