Love Blooms

1: Why do I have feelings for her?

By rainbowscoots1

What are these feelings? I feel really weird sometimes and I can't explain them! I could be either at school with my friends and we would be having issues with Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon (as usual). I could be at a CMC meeting with Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle and we could be doing something to get our cutie marks - with no luck.

To make matters worse, its ALWAYS around my friends! I have no idea why but it just is and I want it to stop!

Like I said, these feelings are weird... Know why? Well, I'll explain what I feel when the feelings are there but they vary for some reason:

One of the BIG feelings is that I get butterflies in my stomach whenever I'm with friends! I also seem to get really nervous, especially when I'm with Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom but that's never happened before! I'm not the nervous one, Sweetie Belle usually is!

I also seem really happy at the thought of being around my friends but I can't tell why! It's nothing like the usual happy thoughts, this is more than that.

But I remember when it was just me and Apple Bloom the other day because Sweetie Belle had to stay back and help her sister and the feelings were there! They were there when I was alone with her!

Ugh, I need to talk to someone about this. Maybe Rainbow Dash will know about how I'm feeling and will point me in the right direction.

I left my bedroom and went downstairs to see Rainbow Dash reading a Daring Do book, as usual. "Hey, sis!" I said

Rainbow Dash stopped what she was doing and turned to face me. "Hey, Scoots! What's up?" She asked

I stuttered. "I... I need to ask ya about something..."

She then sat down at the table and motioned for me to sit too. I did as I was told. "Is everything okay? What did you wanna talk to me about?"

I was so nervous. "Um... I'm having these feelings and I can't explain them and they're annoying me! Can you help me? I just need to know what these feelings mean..."

Rainbow Dash nodded. "Well okay. Tell me about these feelings. Do you feel anything? Do they happen when you're around someone?"

"Yeah! I used to get them when I was around Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle but when me and Apple Bloom were alone for one CMC meeting, the feelings were there!"

Rainbow smiled at me. "Can you describe some of the feelings for me?"

I nodded. "Well, I get butterflies in my stomach, I also get really nervous too and that isn't like me! I also seem to be really happy around Apple Bloom and I don't know why!" I huffed in frustration

My big sister chuckled. "You're in love Scootaloo!"

My eyes went wide. I was in... Love? "Are you sure?"

My sister nodded. "I know that for a fact. I used to have those feelings too. You are in love!"

"I'm in love with Apple Bloom..." I trailed off, in thought

"So... Are you gonna tell her how you feel?" She asked me

I froze. "I d-don't know yet... I might but what if she doesn't love me back? What if she doesn't wanna be my friend anymore?" I started to panic

"Calm down Scoots! It won't be that bad. Sure, it'll be awkward for a while if she says that she doesn't feel the same way but you will get over it in time. Maybe, bring it up after a CMC meeting or something."

I nodded. "Thanks, sis! I'll leave you to reading your book!" I hopped down from the chair and I went upstairs to my room. I was going to tell her how I felt.

Author's Note

I know this is short and I know it's only got the POV of Scootaloo and not Apple Bloom as well but this should be cleared up in the next chapter.
