Pinkie blues eyes kept moving left and right. Up and down and just all around, waiting by the mailbox. Her hoof tapped on the dirt covered ground. Her eyes searching the skies and the ground for any site of the postman.
A light brown stallion, wearing a red postman hat and the saddle which holds the mail. Pinkie smiled wider than Hearth’s Warming Eve. He just seems to ignore her and walked right past the pink earth pony. Pinkie frowned.
“Stop! Wait a minute Mister Postman. Please can you look and see. If there's a letter in your bag for me.” the stallion rolled his eyes in annoyance.
“No, miss Pie” he said, walking away leaving Pinkie in a grump.
“I’ll be waiting here, waiting for something from that mare of mine.” Pinkie waved him a goodbye, her smile returning to her lips.
Pinkie started humming a tune, as she rocked her head back and forth. It been two days, Pinkie getting more and more worried about the promise letter.
She hoped that it hasn't been forgotten, or worst she has been forgotten. She was about to shed a tear, before she saw the postman. Coming her way, forcing a smile. She straightened herself out, just for the postman to walk past her.
“Hi there, please let there be some word today. From my marefriend, who’s so far away, please mister postman, look and see. If there's a letter, for me?” Pinkie question, putting on her best puppy dog eyes.
“Sorry Pinkie, just like the past two times. The answer is still no.” The postman said, leaving her site.
Pinkie sink to the ground, her eyes drifted to the ground. She kept her chin up, but couldn't help it. Pinkie looked towards the skies, wondering where oh where was that blasted pegasus.
”Don’t worry Pinks. I’ll write back. I promise, you’re my number one girl”
“She promised. Of course she’ll write, I bet it just got lost. That it, she lost her Quill and can't find one” Pinkie said, trying to make herself believe. That it was true and there is a letter on its way.
Pinkie looked seeing the postman once again, everytime she saw him. Joy fill her up, hoping that today might be the day she gets the letter.
“Hey mister postman!” Pinkie yelled, jumping to her hooves.
“There must be a letter today. Right?” All he did was shake his head and walk away from the pink mare.
“Why's it takin' such a long time. To hear from that mare!” Pinkie scream out, falling back towards the ground. Her head fell on the postbox.
Rain fell on the town of Ponyville the day, Pinkie let out a sneeze. Her wet mane covered her left eye, she hugged herself to keep warm. She once again notice the postman, she just didn’t say anything. All she could do is watch him walk right past her like she was invisible.
“C'mon deliver that letter, the sooner the better. Mister Postman” she whispered to herself. Before giving a small sign at her hope breaking. Hope or her heart, it felt the same sometimes.
Sun shined the next day, a rainbow was in the sky, the sight made Pinkie’s heart hurt more. The first thing that made her happy, is making her hurt. The postman coming by once again, Pinkie began questioning why he comes by here if there no letter to deliver.
“Why?” She asked, causing him stopped suddenly and look at her.
“Why, every day you passed me by. You most likely seen the tears in my eyes. You don't stop to make me feel better, by leavin' me a card or a letter. So I ask you why mister postman?” Pinkie question
All the postman could shake his head with a smile, “You’ll find out soon enough, Miss Pie. Good day to you” he said, before he started trotting away.
Pinkie moved her head to the side, confused on what he meant by that. She decide to move it to the back of her mind, and wait for his next visit.
Tomorrow is the day is when her marefriend would return, Pinkie felt weird, the postman decide not to come today. Maybe because it was Sunday or it getting close to when that mare of her’s is going to return. Pinkie began thinking the worst. Maybe she forgot her, or found somepony better than her.
Why would somepony as wonderful as that pegasus would want to stay with her. She just doesn’t know. How can she trust her anymore.
“Please, oh please mister postman. Please see, if there's a letter in your bag for me. I have been waiting to hear from that marefriend of mine” Pinkie said, but then she stopped believing.
Today the day, she meant to return home. That marefriend, Pinkie didn’t know how to feel. On one hoof she felt like she could fly, but on the other. Her heart was so broken it didn’t feel right anymore.
Her head lower to the ground, she just walked inside Sugar Cube Corner. Sat on her bed, looking out the window at the town having fun. While Pinkie sat on her bed, sad, heart broken and tired.
The pink earth pony let out a sneeze, she rubbed her nose with her hoof. When she heard somepony open her door. Pinkie turned to face the pony, her eyes widen seeing her marefriend. Standing there, with a bag on her back, letters falling to the ground.
“I didn’t write, because I wanted to give to you, personally. I love ya Pinks” Pinkie rubbed the tears running down her cheeks.
The pink earth pony rushed up to hug her marefriend, the pegasus drop the bag and return the hug.
“Pinks, I’ll love ya forever. I hope you know that” she said, causing Pinkie to truly smile the first time since a week.
“I know and I’ll love you forever too, my soon to be Wonderbolt.” Pinkie said
The End.
Author's Note
I got bored... One raining Sunday afternoon, I was listening to my music. Then a song pop up, then it made think back to that episode where Pinkie stood by a mailbox for the whole episode. Based off the song Please Mr. Postman from The Marvelettes
It something from the 50’s I think... The main thing is this isn’t the only thing I started writing, I think I be coming back... Huh, that’s something.
