Author's Note

I know the chapter title probably isn't that relatable but I didn't think of the name when I was writing this. So, try not to mind it too much.

Chapter 5: Thoughts

In the Library…

Aldon was reading a book while Sunset was still trying to figure out the answer from Rainbow ponying up earlier. She groaned and pushed all of the papers off of the desk and placed her hands on her head.

“Still having trouble?”

“I don’t know what could’ve caused Rainbow to pony up like that. I’ve looked into everything that I could think of.”

“Well, sometimes things have explanations and sometimes things are unexplainable. I think this is one of those where it just need a little more time to figure out.”

“I know, but-”

“Just give it some time. We’ll get more clues and we can figure this out later.” Sunset sighed.

“Your right. I just don’t know what to do with this much responsibility on keeping the magic in check.”

“Well…” Aldon grabs Sunset’s book and places in front of her, “You could tell a certain someone about this while we’re still trying to figure it out.” Sunset looked down at the book then Aldon as he handed her a pen, “I’ll go get these books back at the shelves while you tell Twilight about this.” he grabs the books and walks away as Sunset starts writing in the book.

Later, Aldon returned as Sunset finished writing to Twilight in her book.

“Just finished?”

“Yeah. Hope she gets to it soon.”

“Well, Danto texted me. He said they’re all at the music room practicing. Do you want to meet with them?”

“Sure, at least it’ll help us pass the time until the games and help me get my mind of this for a bit.” they both started making their way to the music room to practice together as a band. As they were walking in the hallways, Aldon looked as Sunset and smiled. Sunset noticed this as she looked at him, “What?”

“Just thinking about stuff in the past. At first, you being a person people were afraid of, then ‘not liked,’ now respected all over the school. I’m surprised on how much stuff like that can change in a couple of weeks.”

“Well, I did have help from Equestria and here.”

“I know. Like I said, I was just thinking.” a door then swung open at Aldon, hitting him as he landed on his back. He was rubbing his head as Sunset grabbed his hand and helped him up.

“Are you okay?”

“Yeah, I’m fine.” as soon as he looked at her, they gazed into each others eyes. Their heads started moving slowly towards each other as they closed their eyes. However, Aldon’s phone started buzzing causing both of them to pull back. He checked his phone as he saw a text from Elu saying ‘Are you two heading over here yet? We need more instruments and vocals.’ “We should keep moving to the room.”

“R-Right.” before they started making their way to the band room, Aldon grabbed and held Sunset’s hand as she looked down at their hands and at him. He was looking away, blushing as she giggled a small bit as they started heading to the band room.

‘If only El didn’t interrupt us.’ Aldon thought to himself.
