New guy at CHS
Chapter 16
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThat was quite the car ride. Memes, fourth wall breaks, and plot... well, not that kind of plot if you know what I mean. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
Anyway, we met up with Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna soon after we pushed the broken down car to the house.
"A house in the suburbs is great. No more weird prostitutes at my apartment complex, and hearing them from time to time. I mean, sex shouldn't feel that great, right?" This is when everyone looked at Cobalt, "What?"
"When did it come to that?"
"Well, there were a lot of prostitutes constantly coming in and out of my complex, but now I won't have to worry about that..."
"No, knowing what sex feels like..."
"Oh, my mom didn't really touch on that subject when I would study or if she would teach me."
"That's because I didn't want you to learn about that until you were 14, but you moved out before then. Wait, you haven't learned about the human anatomy?"
"Well, only from what I read in books, but I have no experience in it."
"Well, that's good. You may be 18, but you shouldn't be doing anything like that."
"I think by that age I should."
"Oh hush up son. Don't be talking about that around your mother, or other women. Didn't I teach you better."
"Sorry..."
"Well, let's see the inside of the house. It's already furnished, so all you need is to move the stuff that's in the truck."
They all nodded as they walked inside the house. The house was about the size of a normal suburban house. 2 stories, 4 bedrooms, and 1 and a half bathrooms.
"Why do I need 4 bedrooms?"
"It was the only house for sale in this neighborhood. I know this is a little overwhelming, but don't worry, everything will be paid for, and you don't have to worry about rent."
"Hm, that's good I guess. However, won't this be quite a long way from school."
"That's why your principal and vice-principal are your neighbors. They'll be taking you to school every morning until you get a car."
"Won't that mean I'll be going to school extremely early?"
"Yes, but..."
"Isn't there another way?"
"Well, unless your friends here have a car, then your only choice is to car pool with Celestia and Luna.
Most of their answers was either they didn't have a car, or they didn't have their licence yet. However, one of them did have a car and their licence. That girl was Rainbow Dash...
"How well do you drive Rainbow?"
"I'm an excellent driver."
Cobalt raised an eyebrow, and looked at the others, "Do you girls agree?" They all nodded as Cobalt sighed, "I guess, you'll be my ride to school. I can manage a ride from school. I just didn't want to be at school before anyone else..."
"Great," Rainbow Dash glanced at the others and snickered, "Hehe, this is great. I'll have Cobalt with me in the morning on the way to school. It may be a short ride, but he'll be with me and not them!"
"Anyway, mind if I look at the whole house?"
"Go on ahead sweetie, I'd like to speak with your friends. Emerald dear, why don't you go with your brother."
"Alright mom."
The two siblings walked off to see the rest of the house as their mom waved the girls over to the nearby couch, "Now, how do each of you feel towards my son?" The girls were surprised at the sudden question, "It's obvious all of you see my son in a different light. Notably, in a romantic light. I want to hear from all of you, except Fluttershy. I know about your experience, as for the rest of you, lay it on me. You first Rarity."
"Oh my uh... that's such a loaded question that I don't think I can answer properly."
"Would the reason be that you would be in a full state of bliss if you talk about why you love my son."
"..."
"I think I'm right on the mark. Please, just let me now why you love my son."
"Well, your son is just a fine person. You've raised to be such a fine young man who is respectful to everyone he meets, regardless of who they are. Yes, he does love to goof off, but he's still a responsible young man," Rarity fiddled with her skirt as she continued speaking, "Cobalt to me is like someone that comes only once in a lifetime. He's... someone I wish to marry..., and give my life to..."
All the girls looked at Rarity in shock, yet they knew about her true feelings towards Cobalt. They just didn't know she would go to this extent discussing them.
"That's a good answer. Rainbow, how about you?"
"Well, almost exactly like Rarity. I do... love him. Gosh! That's really embarrassing..."
"Why do you love him?"
"Well, not only is he caring for us, but he's crazy athletic. I asked him to come with me to the gym a few times, and that dude knows how to make the grind for a better body. He even told me his workout routine he had in the mountains."
"My son did have a brutal routine. He's also trained in combat. All combat. He wanted to protect everyone in the village, and trained with someone."
"That's another thing. He cares deeply for all of us. I don't know if it's because we're his first ever friends, girls, or both. He cares for us and doesn't want anything to harm us."
"I see. Applejack, do you have to say anything? Or is your answer the same as these two?"
"Well, Cobalt is always a helpful person. Ah can't say how many times he voluntarily helped out at the farm. He knows that if there's help needed for someone, somewhere out there, then he'll do his best to help that one person that needs it..."
"Yes, he does love helping everyone. Pinkie, how about you?"
"Well, Cobalt is fun to be with! I would go to his nearly everday to hang out with him. He also loves pulling pranks on people. Pranks are easier with him around since he'sa mystic. He can set up some weird places for pranks. That's not the only reason though...," Pinkie then got serious, "I... somewhat wish I had met earlier in my life. Maybe my life would've taken a different turn... for the best..."
"Getting deep are we. Hmph, that actually brings me to one last person. Sunset, from what I see, you love Cobalt just as much as everyone else here."
"Huh?"
"You've tried to repress your feelings all this time, but in these past 2 weeks, you just couldn't hold your feelings back anymore. Why? Is it because your old persona is preventing to express said feelings?"
"No... I..."
"Or... are you embarrassed to tell your friends?"
"..."
"You love my son because of how intelligent he is. Because of who he is. His looks, his persona, and even his goofiness. You love everything about him, don't you?"
"I... love Cobalt...," Sunset says quietly. Too quietly for anyone to here her.
"What was that?"
"I said I love Cobalt with all my heart!" The girls all stared at Sunset at her sudden outburst. Then, they heard this.
"It's about time you said you did...," They turned to see Cobalt leaning against the wall, "And this is how I'm going to answer all of your confessions..."
