In Which Artemis wants to leave and never return
I'm the only prince in Equestria, it's hard being the only one too! Every girl wants to be with me! Cadance never leaves me be, my sister's an idiot, and the very ones that saved me, are wanting to be with me! So needless to say, I'm hating life! Guys that I hang out with are dumb and want to be like me, they keep telling me to be with them and cheat. I have NOT found a single person who wants to help me! So for god sakes, help me! I can't even be alone for two minutes anymore! Why did I have to be the only prince in Equestria!?
I would have to say it started about...Four months ago, or maybe sooner than that. I was expecting a normal day with normal work, until I found one of the maids looking at me. It was confusing and...Weird. Besides, I don't even like any of the maids! I don't even like anyone! God! But then, Twilight and her friends started to give me the same look. What made it worst was each one tried to...Well, they tried to make me fall in love with them. First off, I only see them as friends, secondly, Cadance would kill me if I let Twilight get hurt or something. So, needless to say. I'm in deep fucking trouble.
It made my day even worst when my sister told me to just ignore them and then tell one of them I loved them. God damn it! Why does everyone not want to help me with this? I mean, I would help them! But do they help me? No! They have to make poor old Artemis suffer! I hate being the only prince. I have no clue how Blueblood handles things like this. I mean, him and Trixie, they're together! And I think Flash likes Twilight, which is fine, but I think Shining Armor hates it. Protective. He's protective of her. Like every older sibling should be, they have to protect their younger sibling.
I was hoping for a quiet day to myself, but Twilight came and had a visit. But once she found out that I was in my bedroom, I was going to dome by pure luck that wasn't on my side. And to think I'm friends with them. Have to admit, it felt nice at first but then it got annoying. Way to annoying.
"Hello Twilight." I said, trying to sound stupid and not knowing why she was here. "What do you need?"
"Don't be like that Arty." Hell no. No one calls me that! Stupid nickname. "You know I hate it when you try and sound unsure of things."
"Go away Twilight. Not in the mood to hear your confession!" I yelled, not bothering being soft on her, "Don't you like Flash? Go to him instead of me!"
"I do like him." No surprise there, "But as a friend." Okay, maybe a surprise.
"Not my problem."
"Can't you at least try us?" Nope! I don't wanna! "Please?" Not working.
"No." I told her, she didn't care, "Go away. I don't wanna be bother right now."
I saw her frown, oh well! I'm not going on a date with her! EVER! She's my friend, not my girlfriend. And I don't plan on ever having her as my girlfriend. Just no.
"Please Arty? I'll stop bugging you!" Lie. "Please?"
"No Twilight." I informed her, "My answer is no and that's final. Now go bug someone else."
I saw her look down with sadness. Okay, I kind of feel bad, but she asked for it! I'm sick and tired of people wanting to be with me! I'm not something to be played with! Or be in a relationship with! I'm never ever being with one of her friends or her! I said this once or twice, but I'm saying it again. I. HATE. Life!
"God damn it." I muttered under my breathe, "Twilight look, I like but not like that! I see you as a friend! Nothing more! I'm sure you would be happier with Flash! Look at your brother with Cadance! They're happy! I'm sure you would be happy with Flash, not me."
"But I don't like him like that." Seriously? Don't think Flash would want to hear that. "I don't like anyone else."
"To bad Twilight. We're friends. Nothing more."
I sighed, looking at her. I was done. I told her to leave and once she did, I was happy. Alone. The way I wanted to be. After all, I don't trust anyone. I keep to myself. I'm the Prince of Night after all. It's my way of living. No one can tell me what to do. Not a single soul. I don't care if Shining Armor beats me up! He may be the Crystal Prince, but I'm the Night Prince. He can't beat me up. And I can't beat him up.
Maybe if I'm gone, they would calm down? They would notice, but I would have alone time. I thought to myself, thinking of ways to be alone. If only those ways could work.
Being the only Prince in Equestria beside Shining Armor, who's not really a prince in blood, is tough. Have no clue how he does things. But then again, he's a guard. Oh well, so basically I'm the only Prince. Bad and cool at the same time. I wonder what I'll do when Twilight's birthday comes around. Since we HAVE to go. There goes my only hope for humanity.

Twilight Begs Artemis To Take Her Out
He wasn't going to ignore me. I'm the Princess of Friendship. We should be together. I don't care about everyone else wanting him, I was the only one who should have him. We both can live forever until we're either killed or hurt in a very bad way and we won't live. His sister keeps telling me it won't work, but I will make it work. If it doesn't, then his fault. We ARE going to be together!
He was last seen outside of the castle, talking to someone. It made my blood boil. I saw who it was. Rarity. She never acts like she in love with him, even though she is! I hate it when she's around him. The only one who doesn't love him is AppleJack. She respects him, likes him as a friend. We all seen them together. I slowly made my towards them and listened on to their conversation.
"She's getting worst AJ." My favourite one spoke, his voice beaming with worry, "She won't leave me be."
"Ah wish ah could tell you something partner." AJ said back, "But ah think you'll need to go on whatever she wants. Ya hear?"
"I know, but I can't." What? Why not? "I love someone else."
"And who's that?" Who?!
"....Well, I don't wanna say." Damn it! I could've told the girl to stay away from him! "But, I can say it when the Gala comes."
"Okay." I heard AJ started to leave. The Gala? He's going to reveal his love at the Gala? That's only three months away!
Since AJ left, I thought it was a good time to come out and talk to my love. Well, not yet, but you know what I mean. I slowly made my way over to him and saw him looked back to where AJ left. Then, he looked at me. He was glaring at me for listening in.
"Hi Arty." I used his nickname, "What's going on?"
"Hello Twilight Sparkle." I frowned, he didn't have to use my full name, "Nothing's going on. Go home."
"But I wanted to ask you something!" I heard him groan, "Come on just listen!"
"Fine." He muttered, but I could hear him just fine, "What is it?"
I beamed, "Could we go out sometime?"
"NO!" He shouted, "Not in a million years!"
"But why?" I asked, "Why not me?"
"Twilight, we've been over this! I'm not going out with you!"
I looked at him with fury, but then turned it into sadness. Trying out my sad face on him, it always works for Shining, but looks like it doesn't work for him.
"Please?" I asked once more, looking into his eyes. "Just this once."
He groaned, "My god. FINE! But only this ONCE!"
I watched as he took his leave, I happily sighed and went to go see all the places that were open. I got to choose the date. I wanted to be a special day, so I choose his favourite place. The lake by the woods. He loved going there, even when he was a kid. I was told that from his sister. It was going to be the perfect day ever!
Artemis's POV
Why did I just agree to go out with her? It's hard enough not being seen by everyone, but now I have to be seen with her!? Does the world hate me!? Can't be that bad right? It's just two friends hanging out. Nothing romantic.
"Somehow I think I'm getting myself into danger." I told myself as I headed towards my room. I didn't bother looking for anyone that might be around, "And I won't make it out alive."
"And how bad could it be sire?" I jumped. A guard. "I'm sure it can't be that bad."
"You wouldn't understand Ice." I told him, he was the best guard there was, next to Shining Armor, "You don't have girls wanting to be with you!"
"Might not sire," Ice went on, "But you must admit, some of them are cute!"
"Then why don't you talk to them?" I teased, seeing him blush, "I can set up with one of them."
"You don't have to!"
"You sure? They'll do anything I ask." I smirked, at his smile, "Anyone you want?"
"Knock it off sire." I chuckled and left Ice alone for the rest of the day.
Once in my room, I lay downed on my bed, looking at the ceiling. This better be good. Night court wasn't great either. I had to make sure that I went with the guys first. They always had the longer problems.
"Better work." I told myself, sitting up. "If not, then I'm dome to spend the rest of my life, being wanted by others."
Always me. Always had to be. Of course! I'm the chosen one! Hate life. Does it always have to be this bad? I mean, I'm used to it sure, but this is stupid and awful to me. No one else, but me! I'm loved right now. Why can't it be someone else besides me!?
"I hate life." Stupid, stupid life! Why couldn't I be born as a girl? But no! I had to be a boy! I wonder what I would look like as a girl?
