I'm...Fine

Ever since Grade 6, Fluttershy had been bullied and made fun of, and it still continues on now in High School.

People made fun of her name and called her the nastiest things, but each year it seemed their vocabulary would just get worse. They would find and point out her hidden insecurities and make them public, they would take advantage of her vulnerability and just keep pushing and pushing until...she broke into tears.

Rainbow Dash tried her best to protect her friend from the cruelty of the world but no matter what she did, it seemed that Fluttershy would continue to be victimized.

Said girl, was sitting at her desk in Math Class writing down the math equations that her teacher, Ms. Cheerilee, had written down on the whiteboard. She sighed as her teacher started writing down the answers for some of the equations, some of which Fluttershy had gotten wrong.

She slowly moved her head up to look at the clock. It was only nearing the end of first block which meant she still had 5 hrs left of school. She lowered her head back down, towards her paper.

Trixie sat at the the desk to Fluttershy's right but, said buttercream girl, couldn't notice the light violet eyes peering at her. Trixie turned to the girl on her right and whispered something in her ear. Soon enough, a small rumour, that Trixie had started as if it were a game of telephone, spread throughout the entire class.

The bell rang and the students started to stand up and collect their binders, pencil cases and loose sheets of paper.

"Now, everyone remember that the homework assigned is due on Thursday," Ms. Cheerilee exclaimed.

Fluttershy started to head towards the door at the back of the classroom, but felt a small prick on her back. She turned around but only found a bunch of students trying to exit the room. She slowly turned around and tried to shrug it off.

As she walked out the door and into the hall, she noticed that the most of the eyes in the hallway were following her. She tried not to look back into their eyes and tried to hide her face in her binder.

When she got to her locker, she completed her lock combination and opened it open to shove the contents, that were in her arms, inside. She had a mirror inside her locker that hung on the swinging door.

As she reached down to put her binder away, her eyes caught something in the mirror. She put her hand to her back and felt something big but light. She bit her lip as she realized that it was a piece of paper. She cautiously ripped it off her back and looked at the words that had been written on it.

Flutterdumb that had an arrow above it pointing to her head.

Fluttershy slowly crumpled the piece of paper into a ball as she leaned her head against another locker. She bit her bottom lip as she held back tears.

"Stupid," she whispered. She solemnly turned around and put the piece of paper in a recycling bin. Fluttershy sighed strongly and then walked back over to her locker. She took out her binder for Science class and her white pencil case with pink butterflies. She placed the lock back on her locker and made her way towards her classroom as the first bell rang to tell students to get going.

While classes were in session, a teenage boy sat on the outskirts of the school, talking to Vice Principal Luna on a bench.
The principal gently straightened out some files in her lap as she turned towards the young student.

He had a light grey complexion, was very tall and slim, had jet black hair, skinny cheek bones, red eyes with yellow sclera surrounding them and a small tooth that stuck out of his mouth.
He was wearing leather jacket with a red T-Shirt, along with dark blue jeans and different coloured shoes. Green and red.

"Everything seems in order, but have you yet to take a tour of the school?" she asked sweetly.

"Umm, no...but I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually," he said, plastering a smile on his face. The last thing he wanted was to be given a tour that would take longer than it should by some boring person that would probably ramble on about their love life or how they feel about the cafeteria food.

"No, it's quite alright. I'm sure I could get one of the students to give you a tour," she smiled. He put on a fake smile.

"No, it's no trouble at all...I'm sure I can manage," he protested.

"Nonsense, besides, it'll give you an opportunity to make new friends."

"No, really it's-" he was cut off.

"It's decided, I will find a student to give you the grand tour of our High School," she grinned sweetly.

"Wonderful," he gritted through his teeth. Luna seemed very oblivious to his attitude.

"Well, Discord, I shall be right back. Stay here," she said standing up and waving to him. He pretended to smile back while he waved. Once she was through the doors, he slumped down on the bunch and groaned.

"This is so stupid," Discord complained.

The first classroom Luna went into was Mr. Hooves Science class. She slowly peeked her head through the door and waved towards him. He pulled his attention away from the whiteboard and towards the Vice Principal.

"Can I help you?" he asked politely.

"Umm, yes. Sorry to bother you but I was just wondering if any of your students would be interested in giving a tour to a new student?"

The room was silent until a young male teenager, named Score, that sat beside Fluttershy, took the latters hand and raised it high.

"Fluttershy would!" he called out. He immediately dropped her hand as Luna's attention turned towards the pink haired student.

"Oh umm, I really don't thin-" she was cut off.

"Thank you so much for volunteering," she exclaimed. Luna just seemed to be totally out of it today and seemed desperate for a tour guide, despite her agreeability.
Fluttershy hung her head in defeat but then raised her head to look at the Vice Principal. Fluttershy slowly stood up and made her way towards the door.
Well at least I get to skip class. She thought, though it didn't quite cheer her up. Fluttershy followed Luna towards the outside front of the building. She stopped when she saw the back of a head leaning against the bench, facing his back towards her. She just looked at her feet nervously while her hair blocked her face.

Luna walked towards the student.

"Thank you for waiting Discord...I've found a student to give you a tour of the school," she said. She moved her fingers up and down, gesturing for him to stand up. He gave an inside groan as he lifted himself off the bench.

Looking down he walked towards the unknown girl as Luna walked along side him. He could tell that this student was only a few feet in front of him, for he could...smell her?

She smelt like flowers and honey? She's probably wearing perfume. He thought.

"Discord, this is Fluttershy. Now you two be careful and don't get into any trouble." Can't make any promises. Discord smiled. "I hate to leave you so shortly but my sister and I have a meeting with the school board. I'll see you after the tour at my office," she said before walking off.

Discord slowly turned his gaze to the girl in front of him. She was staring at the ground and then took a deep sigh. She turned around before he could glimpse her face. She made a gesture with her hand to tell him to follow her. She went to the right of the building, showing him the outside first.

"Umm, th...this is the soccer field," she said softly as she made a small hand wave towards the field. He was surprised to hear how soft her voice was. No wonder her name is Fluttershy.

He walked faster so that he was walking side by side with the girl, wanting to get a glimpse of her face. But when he tried, she seemed to turn away. He was puzzled. She was very quiet, something Discord hadn't expected. His view on teenage girls was that they were all chatty and gossipy about pretty much everything. This girl, however, seemed to be the exact opposite.

"This is the...umm, er these are the tennis courts," she said nervously, feeling stupid for messing up. The only words that came out of her mouth were to show him her school. He was...disappointed? Why? Perhaps he was just bored, yes that was it.

"So umm, how long have you gone here?" he asked feeling dumb afterwards. Fluttershy started sweating. She hadn't expected him to to talk to her, or ask any questions.

"Oh, umm. Since I left Elementary," she said quietly. Once again there was an awkward silence. Discord tried once again to look at her face but she just looked the other way. Was she doing it on purpose?

"Umm why do you do that?" he asked bluntly. Fluttershy paled.

"D...do what?" she asked softly.

"Turn away...I mean, I'd like to know what the person's face I'm talking to looks like," he said. Fluttershy looked down. No one had ever wanted to look at her, except Rainbow Dash (I guess), unless they were making fun of her. What if that's what this new guy wanted to do. What if someone from her school told him about her, and he just wanted to laugh at her?

Discord noticed she was taking a while to answer. He was confused. He decided to leave it for now, but he knew eventually he would see her face. He had the rest of the school year to do so. What was she so worried about anyway?

The rest of the tour was just Fluttershy telling him the names of different locations, rather quietly. She would never show her face towards him, worried about what he might think. She didn't want another student poking at her insecurities.

They didn't talk much but that only made Discord's curiosity increase. Who was she?

Nearing the end of the tour, Discord tried once more to look at her face but she pulled away.

"God dammit woman, just let me see your face for crying out loud!" he turned in front of her quickly and grabbed the bottom of her chin, with his right hand, and lifted her head up. His grip softened as he slowly examined her worried face, although her eyes were closed. He slowly took his hand off as he stared at her face, trying hard to commit every detail to memory.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw that he was staring deeply into them. Fluttershy was scared and started brushing her left arm with her right hand. She realized she hadn't gotten quite a good look at the new student either.
She found it strange, yet interesting, that his sclera was yellow, and she hadn't ever seen blood red eyes like this. Nor had she seen someone with a tooth sticking out of their mouth.

"You...you're..." Discord started. Fluttershy was ready for the insult. Ugly? Weird? Stupid? Fat?

"Beautiful," he said, instantly regretting his words. Ugh, now she's gonna think I'm a sappy romantic or something. He brain slapped himself.

Fluttershy's eyes shrank. What? No, he's just playing me. He's just trying to get my attention. He just wants me to tell him everything so that he can use it against me. She thought. She turned away like nothing had happened and led him to Luna's office.

"She's inside waiting for you," she whispered. Fluttershy turned and started walking away.

"Bye," he said. Fluttershy gave no response, although she felt bad about it. He was just trying to be friendly, unless it was just another trick.

Discord wanted to slap himself.

"Ugh," he said, leaning up against a wall. He kept repeating stupid as he banged his head against the wall next to the door. He was so confused, and not in a good way. He never minded some chaos but this was, for some reason, really bothering him.

What was her deal? Did she think he was being too forward? Was was she so skittish? I mean I know her name is Flutter-shy but there was more to it than that.
Of all the people who could've given him the tour, it had to be the one who was beau...er pretty, but shy?

"Agh, stupid, stupid, stu-" he was cut off from the sound of the door opening.

"Hello Discord, I hope you enjoyed the tour. Let's discuss your student schedule," she said before shutting the door on both of them.
