Too Kind. Too Nice. Too Selfless.
Colours And A Hug
Previous Chapter"We should go to the carousel boutique still." I answer.
"Alright then, Rarity, do you want to show him the way?" Twilight asks.
"Why of course, it's my buisness after all, it'd only be right if I was the one to show the way." Rarity answers.
Rarity takes the lead at the front of the group and starts to lead us through the town.
"So, what's the name of this place?" I ask.
"Ponyville. It's a nice little town, much different compared to Canterlot, our main city." Twilight explains.
"Really? How many ponies live here?"
"There are about four hundred and fifty ponies here. Well that was the last time I checked so I'm not entirely sure." Twilight answers.
"That's a lot of ponies." I mumble. 'A lot of ponies.... A lot of.... Witnesses. As long as I'm out here they wouldn't try anything. Unless.... This entire town is after me. I've seen people this nice before. They're about as trustworthy as a tumor.'
"Are you okay? You keep mumbling to yourself like this. *mumble* *mumble*" Pinkie Pie imitates.
"I'm fine, I'm just thinking to myself. It wasn't that long ago that I was dead, remember?"
"Oh yeah!" Pinkie Pie laughs.
'Never let yourself be alone with her. NEVER.'
After a few minutes of walking we arrive in front of a large building that looks like it was part of a carnival.
"This is the Carousel Boutique. The place for fashion and upper class." Rarity says proudly.
Rainbow Dash groans behind me. Rarity answers Rainbow Dash's groan with a glare.
"Anyway. Shall I show you around?" Rarity asks.
"Sure." I answer.
Rarity leads me into the carnival style building. The walls are two tone pink, the top half is a light pink whilst the bottom half is a dark pink. There are a few arches with pony dummies within them, each with a different outfit on, each of the arches has a pink open curtain.
"What do you think? I think the interior is marvelous wouldn't you agree?" Rarity asks with a look of excitement on her face.
"It's very pink." I point out.
"Why yes of course it is. Pink is a wonderful color don't you think?"
"Pink is a nice color but I'm more of a fan of white. To me white is a color of beauty. The white rose, The Calla Lily and traditional wedding dresses." I answer.
"You're not just saying that because my coat is white are you?" Rarity winks.
"I would be lieing if I said that your white coat isn't beautiful." I smirk.
"Flatterer." Rarity giggles.
I can't help but feel relaxed around Rarity.
"I won't be showing you the backroom because it's my little place of ideas. Don't want you stealing any of my ideas now." Rarity jokes.
"Such a shame. I was hoping to steal your designs and become rich." I joke back.
Rarity smiles happily as we talk.
"Well, that's the tour. I know it's short but the showroom is all I can really show. Still, I hope you enjoyed yourself during my little tour." Rarity says with a smile as she leads me out.
"It was fun for the short time that it went on." I reply.
"So, where do you want to visit next?" Twilight Sparkle asks.
"Fluttershy seems like a really nice pony, I'd like to get to know her a bit more. How about we visit your house Fluttershy?"
"M-My house? I-I don't think you'll like it.... Or me...." Fluttershy whimpers.
"Oh come on. You seem like a really nice pony, I'm pretty sure I'll like where you live and I'll like you."
"O-Okay...." Fluttershy mumbles to herself.
Fluttershy shuffles in place and looks at the ground.
"We can go at your pace if you want Fluttershy."
"Th-Thanks." Fluttershy whimpers.
After waiting for a few seconds Fluttershy starts to walk towards the forest in the distance. Our group followed her towards the forest. After a few minutes of walking we arrive at a small cottage on the outskirts of the town, near the forest.
"Is this your house Fluttershy?" I ask in as gentle a voice I can muster.
"Y-Yeah.... I know it's not much." Fluttershy answers nervously.
"I like it, it's really cozy looking." I reply.
"Y-You think so?" Fluttershy asks with a slight smile.
"Absolutely. It looks really homey." I answer.
Fluttershy smiles at me then flies to her front door, she then opens it and heads inside leaving the door open for me to follow her in. The walls inside her house are brown with wooden chairs with green cushions on them, there are also two bookcases built into her walls.
"It loosk really nice in here, really.... Calming."
"I thought I was the only pony that thought that." Fluttershy replies with a smile.
As soon as she finishes that sentence something hard and orange flies towards my forehead, bouncing off of it as soon as it hits my forehead.
"The hell was that?" I ask as I rub my forehead where the carrot hit.
"Angel!" Fluttershy "shouts" excitedly.
In the doorway to her kitchen is a small white rabbit glaring at me.
"So you throw that at me?" I ask with a groan.
It nods it's head.
"Well fuck you too."
The white bunny looks at me in confusion.
"I can already tell I'm never going to like you." I say shooting a glare back at the rabbit.
The rabbit does a "I've got my eyes on you" gesture aimed at me, so I stick my middle finger up at him in retaliation. The rabbit glares at me before heading back into the kitchen.
"I didn't get a welcome back hug from him...." Fluttershy whimpers.
"Want me to give you one?" I ask jokingly.
She nods her head nervously.
"Really?" I ask in disbelief.
She nods her head again.
"I-I like to get one when I get home.... Because.... Because it help me calm down...." Fluttershy whimpers.
I nod my head in understanding. I lower myself to my knees and hold my hands out to my sides signaling to Fluttershy that I'm "ready" to hug her.
'Holy shit am I nervous right now. She could easily attack me right here.... No one can see me, but for some reason I feel like she doesn't have it in her to randomly attack someone.' I think to myself.
Fluttershy slowly walks towards me. As she reaches me she lightly pushes her head against my chest. I wrap my arms around the back of her head and lightly pull her head against my chest. After a few seconds I can hear Fluttershy quitely sigh into my chest.
"Thank you, I really needed my welcome home hug." Fluttershy says as she rubs her head into my clothed chest.
"It's okay, I'm always happy to help." I say with a smile.
After what felt like a minute we separate, I then pull out my diary and write an entry into it.
---------------------------- Diary Page 2 ----------------------------
Fluttershy and Rarity. Something about them seems.... Odd. I get along with them quite well, a little too well if you ask me. I'll need to keep an eye out. I kind of trust them both a little more now after they've showed me their houses. I've gotten a little look into their private lives and ~~I don't think they're dangerous~~ they seem like decent enough people. I'll have to wait and see about the others, but for now I trust these two probably the most right now.
Rarity Trust - 5/10
Rainbow Dash Trust - 4/10
Twilight Sparkle Trust - 2/10
AppleJack Trust - 3/10
Pinkie Pie Trust - 0/10
Fluttershy Trust - 5/10
I trust Pinkie Pie even less then before after what she said earlier. She laughed after I said about my not dieing that long ago. She worries me.
