Order-Up!

Meadow was brushing her mane as she went through her closet to pick out a dress. Meadow continued brushing her hair until it was silky smooth. And then proceeded to brush her tail. Meadow lifted a bottle of perfume over to her with her magic. She had taken lessons from Bumper, Blood Bones, and Timidthy so she could get better. Blood Bones especially. Meadow had taken a shower using coconut scented shampoo. And made sure to scrub her mane, tail and coat so she'd smell her best. And now she was using lavender scented perfume on the front and back of her neck, her chest and the cheeks of her face. She and Blood Bones had dated for two weeks. And she had learned that Blood Bones's favorite scents we're lavender and coconut. Though he never fully admitted it she had done slight experimentation. By using numerous perfumes and shampoos to see how her reacted to the scents. As Meadow put the perfume down she put her mane and tail into a beehive style. Meadow then put a velvet, frilly dress with gold trimmings on and put on glass velvet coloured high heels. Meadow smiled dreamly as she put on some pink lipstick. After Meadow was done she walked out of her room with a skip in her step.

Meanwhile........

Blood Bones was putting a black tux on as he nervously tightened the red bow on his suit. Blood Bones troted over to his bed. And looked over the ruby-lily fusion corsage he had blended together. He then pulled out a black box and put the corsage in it. Blood Bones had undid his man's from his usual pompedor hairstyle (much to his discomfort) and put it in a mullet. He looked in the mirror and wanted to punch himself. 'I look like a dork.' Blood Bones thought. But despite the humiliation and nervousness he felt with what he was wearing and his hair style. He decided to go with it, after all he loved Meadow. And he wouldn't let his blown-up ego and self confidence get in the way. Once Blood Bones was sure he'd be able to walk without his legs shaking. He headed towards the castle entrance, clutching the boxed corsage to his chest. As Meadow walked to the newest restaurant, she noticed that more colts we're noticing her. Meadow giggled as blush came to her face, she knew Blood Bones would get a rise out of this. And she wasn't sure why but she licked looking nice. Soon Meadow came face to face with the restraunt. The building was painted a very pale yellow as the roof was a regal black with a sign that blinked: Le Petite. Meadow smiled and walked into the restraunt. Blood Bones sat at a table with a halloween orange table-cloth on it. His ears flickered nervously as he felt every cell in his body to run away. But he stayed, he wasn't going to be a coward. Blood Bones then heard small clicks and turned to see Meadow. Blood Bones eye's widened and he could feel his face heat up. Meadow giggled and sat in the chair across from Blood Bones. Meadow smiled sweetly and noticed a black box on the table.

"What's that?" Meadow said innocently as she battered her eyelashes. Blood Bones snapped out of his trance and gave Meadow the box.

"I-It's for you." Blood Bones muttered, Meadow giggled again and opened the box. And saw the corsage safely tucked in it, the lily was white with shreds of red ruby in it and at the tips. Meadow smiled even bigger and put it carefully in her hair.

"It's beautiful." Meadow said softly, Blood Bones smiled sheepishly and said,

"Yo-You're beautiful." Meadow blushed.

"And you look very handsome. I like your hair it's a lot less show-offy." Meadow said, Blood Bones looked away and said,

"Thanks, to be honest I feel a bit dorky like this." Blood Bones said. Blood Bones was usually a pony who didn't care what ponies thought of him. Even with his big ego and self-confidence he didn't stir from it. But stepping outside of his comfort zone. And going to a date in a formal restraunt was a bit unnerving. Meadow shook her head,

"You don't look dorky, you look cute! And I'm glad to be your marefriend." Meadow said. Blood Bones smiled softly and was about to say something until the waiter came over and passed out the menus. Meadow opened her menu and was shocked to see it was in Italian. Blood Bones smiled and his ego swelled up back to full size. He smiled a toothy grin making sure his fangs showed,

"I'll have the dandelion sandwich on a bed of oat fries. And the lady will have a club with lettuce, eggplant, and carrots. And we'll have two Pepsi's." Blood Bones said as he handed the waiter the menus and he left. Meadow looked impressed,

"I didn't think you knew Italian." Meadow said. Blood Bones felt his ego swell up more,

"There are a lot of thing's you don't know about me." Blood Bones said. Meadow smiled, Blood Bones sniffed and swore he could smell lavender and coconut. 'She didn't......' Meadow giggled and said,

"I may have used coconut shampoo and lavender perfume. I made them myself." Meadow said. Blood Bones smiled, '........she did.' For all thing's considered the date was going very well at least for the moment. As the two waited for their food, they talked. During the conversation thought Meadow said,

"I was wondering Blood Bones......why do you like to execute ponies?" Blood Bones looked stunned. But he quickly shook it off,

"I don't like to execute ponies but unlike my brother I tend to be less forgiving. I don't really like ponies who hurt the one's I care about. But......I'm sure if their was an exception the pony would tell me who they really we're." Blood Bones said. And Meadow's mouth went dry. But before she could respond the waiter came with their Pepsi's. And Blood Bones excused himself.

Dinner

Author's Note

Here comes Meadow's first solo! Her singing color will be purple.

Dinner

Meadow nervously tapped her front hooves on the table as she was trying to rack her brain as she was thinking. 'How'd he find out!? Or is he just testing me!?' Meadow was so busy in thought. She didn't see the waiter come and place their food down and as the plates hit the table Meadow jumped slightly. The waiter then left, Meadow blushed slightly and tried to relax herself. 'I'm being silly even if Blood Bones knows he wouldn't be so nice to me if he didn't like me.......right?' Meadow then heard hoof steps and saw Blood Bones sit down in his chair, Meadow smiled nervously. Blood Bones levitated his sandwich over to him but stopped when he saw Meadow.

"Arn't you gonna eat?" Blood Bones said, Meadow blushed.

"Yes of course. Just a little distracted." Meadow said as she was trying to hide the nervously I'm her voice. Blood Bones looked concerned, he put his sandwich down.

"Listen you don't have to eat we can go if you want and put your dinner in a take-out box. I understand you might be a little nervous but no matter what I'll love you." Blood Bones said sweetly, Meadow felt her face redden even more.

"No it's fine, I'll eat." Meadow said as she wrapped her magic around her sub and started eating. Blood Bones smiled slightly and started eating his. As they both ate Blood Bones kept sniffing the air. Blood Bones didn't want to admit it but he liked how Meadow smelled. 'Should I tell him? He said he'd love me no matter what. But what if he doesnt know who I am but just knows I'm hiding something? Then if I tell him he'll hate me!' Meadow thought just before she felt something wrap around her horn. Meadow snapped out of her thoughts. And she was met the eyes of Blood Bones and they held frightened and concerned look. Blood Bones had his magic wrapped around Meadow's horn,

"Your horn was starting to spark. Are you sure you don't want to cut the night short?" Blood Bones said. Meadow smiled sheepishly and said,

"No. Let's just enjoy ourselves." Blood Bones still looked worried but he undid his magic.

"Well okay but I'll order desert. And while I do that you can go freshen up." Blood Bones said calmly. Meadow smiled and nodded, she then got out of her seat and walked towards the fillies room. And as she walked away she heard Blood Bones call the waiter over and ask for two take-out boxes. As Meadow walked into the fillies room she walked into one of the biggest stalls and locked it. Once she was sure nopony would hear her she sat on the tile floor and sighed. She then cast a silence spell on her stall. (Unknowingly to anypony) sad music began to play, and a glittery blue spot light fell onto Meadow.

I may not be the purest of fillies but for some reason somepony gave me pity and saved me from death's hooves.

But now I'm wondering if he should've. Cause now I'm stuck in a hole that I can't dig myself out.

Should I tell my special somepony who I really am? Should I tell him I was a psychopath who hurt the one's he loved.

It seems like the answer is simple but I really don't know......after all honesty is needed to make a relationship grow.

If I tell him he might kill me, or dump me and shatter my heart. Or he might humiliate me and make my life worthless!

Or he might accept me for who I've become, but why would he when I nearly killed him mum.

Should I tell him or keep my mouth shut. For I may not be the purest of fillies but I don't want my special somepony to hate me.

I may not be the purest of fillies but this decision is mine alone.

Meadow sighed and wiped tears from her eye's and left the stall. She then left the restroom to finish her and Blood Bones's date.

Desert

As Meadow walked back to her table she saw Blood Bones had ordered a fudge lava mountain cake. With vanilla ice cream around it. Meadow smiled, him and Timidthy both loved chocolate and fudge. Meadow did worry if their craving for it was unhealthy. But Celestia and Luna hadn't complained so she guessed it was okay. Meadow sat on her chair and saw Blood Bones was eyeing the desert with the biggest eye's he'd ever pulled off. Meadow giggled and cleared her throat, Blood Bones snapped out of it and smiled shyly. Meadow giggled again and picked a spoon up with her magic and Blood Bones followed in pursuit. The two ate in comfortable silence but Meadow was still trying to see if she should tell Blood Bones or not. Blood Bones spoke up just before he placed another spoon full in his mouth.

"So are you doing okay now?" Meadow nodded as she swallowed,

"Yeah I'm fine, it's just I'm concerned about something and I want to tell you but I'm not sure if I should tell you." Meadow said. Blood Bones's eye's seemed to sparkle with joy and curiosity,

"You can tell me anything. No matter what I'll love you." Blood Bones said. Meadow smiled slightly as she took another bite. 'Maybe I should tell him?' Meadow thought. Blood Bones looked at Meadow for a moment and spoke again.

"You know I really like you. You're sweet and you can make perfumes. Lotions and shampoos and lots of other good smelling stuff. You're determined at learning new magic and you're a mystery to me. I know your hiding something but I can't place my hoof on it. You remind me of this filly but I prefer to gather all the facts." Meadow blushed slightly, he was already so close to finding out. Meadow felt a knot tie in her stomach again she didn't want Blood Bones to hate her but he wanted to know. Blood Bones then ate the last bit of the cake and excused himself so he could go and pay the bill. Meadow then frowned as she thought of the pro's and con's of telling Blood Bones. 'If I tell him he might hate me, tell everypony else. I'll die and Timidthy will get in trouble. Or he might be grateful for me telling him break up with me and spare my life. Or he might love me even more for telling him. But I won't know unless I tell him! But what if it's a mistake!?' And as Meadow thought her horn started sparking wildly. And before she could even process what was happening around her. Her horn shot out a beam of plum-colored light. Ponies started screaming as the blast caused part of the ceiling to fall. And just when everypony thought it was over sharp thorny vines spread into the restraunt. The vines also had different variations of sweet-smelling flowers, fruits, berries, and herbs. Meadow was so worried and frazzled she didn't even realize it. When Blood Bones put her on his back and made a mad dash out of the restraunt. Blood Bones kept running as he knew that Meadow would get in trouble if caught. Blood Bones didn't stop until he couldn't hear the screams coming from Le Petite.

Catharsis

Blood Bones had finally stopped as he put Meadow down in a meadow not far from the castle. Blood Bones took a couple of minutes to gulp down as much air as possible. Blood Bones then was about to ask why Meadow had lost control over her magic. But when he looked over to Meadow she saw she had curled into herself and was crying. Blood Bones hugged Meadow tightly and pet Meadow's mane.

"Meadow, please tell me what's wrong?" Blood Bones said softly, Meadow put her face into Blood Bones's chest.

"I-I don't want you to hate me." Meadow said in chocked sobs, Blood Bones's eye's widened.

"Ha-Hate you? I would never hate you." Blood Bones said calmly. Meadow blushed deep red as she spoke again,

"Yes you would if you knew who I really was?" Meadow said. Blood Bones hugged Meadow tighter,

"Meadow you're a sweet, nice filly. I know something is up but I can't be sure unless you tell me." Blood Bones said. Meadow cried harder as she spoke,

"I-I've been lying to everypony for a while! Ti-Timidthy saved my life and changed my voice and body so I'd go undetected and helped me come up with a new name! And at first only me and him knew but then Sweet Dreams found out and I hate lying but if anypony finds out they'll hate me! A-And I can't lie to you anymore! I-I-I'm.......Bully! The evil sadistic filly that tried to take you and your friend's lives!" Blood Bones blood ran cold for a minute. The thought that this filly was the cold sadistic murderer scared him slightly. But his brother had trusted her and.........he loved her. Blood Bones blushed as he realized he couldn't possibly hate the filly in his hooves. She had taken his heart. Blood Bones pulled Meadow off his chest. And saw Meadow's face was stained with tears and black mascara. Blood Bones smiled slightly and Meadow smiled a meek one back. Blood Bones kissed Meadow and Meadow blushed redder. As she leaned into the kiss and let her and Blood Bones's tongues dance with each other. Meadow's horn lit and flowers began to glow, Blood Bones then pulled back.

"Come on let's head to my room." Blood Bones said calmly as he let Meadow wrap her hooves around his neck and he held her with one of his front hooves. Meadow smiled sweetly as hugged Blood Bones's warm body. And as Meadow's eye's fluttered closed she felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. And as Meadow thought Blood Bones continued to walk towards the castle. 'I have to admit I'm impressed she kept something like that from me for so long. I thought there was something more about my little angel and now I finally know. And I like it not only is she mysterious but she's dangerous and I like danger.' Blood Bones thought as he walked into the castle and ran into his room. He then placed Meadow on his bed and took the tux off. Blood Bones levitated a brush and a moist rag. He used to rag to gently wash Meadow's face and put his hair back into his usual style. Blood Bones teleported the two objects away as he walked over to Message and undid her mane. And took the dress off Meadow and undid her tail, Blood Bones smiled. Blood Bones then levitated Meadow in his bed and wrote a letter to the orphanage. Knowing if he didn't the boss around their would get worried when Meadow failed to show up. Blood Bones smirked and smelled Meadow's coat, she smelled amazing. Blood Bones then got into the bed himself and turned the light off. All thing's considered it was a great first date. Meadow woke up as the sun rose into the sky she smiled as she looked at the sleeping colt beside her. Most ponies would say the date was a disaster but it wasn't, at least to Meadow. She had told Blood Bones who she really was and everything ended up fine. Blood Bones hadn't hurt her emotionally or physically, he hadn't run away from her. Meadow was happy that Blood Bones still loved her. Meadow hugged Blood Bones and Blood Bones yawned as he woke up. Meadow blushed and released her grip on Blood Bones and Blood Bones chuckled. Blood Bones and Meadow then heard a knock at the door. Blood Bones smiled slightly and opened the door, Timidthy came in.

"Hey brother I was wondering........why is Meadow here? I mean not that I mind but......I don't remember seeing her last night." Timidthy said as he realized Meadow was there. Blood Bones rolled his eye's in amusement,

"She was here, but she fell asleep so I just thought getting her to bed was best." Blood Bones said. Timidthy raised an eyebrow,

"And you two slept in the same bed?" Timidthy asked.

"Yep. But don't worry I'm sure Sweet Dreams will want to sleep with you one day." Blood Bones teased as him and Meadow left the room. And they left a thoroughly embarrassed Timidthy behind.
