If you find any spelling or grammatical errors please point it out for me. I'll try to correct all of them, but english is only my second language. I hope my writing will improve with time. So, again have fun reading the first chapter. The next will be up un the next weekend. An unexpected encounter It was just an ordinary day. I went down to the market to buy some apples for tonight. "Hey, Heartbeat!" "Oh hey Lyra, I didn't see you there," I said as I walked over to her. "How are you doing?" she asked. "Everything's fine" - I said as I was looking at some apples - "I just came to buy some fresh apples." "Yeah, me too," Lyra sighed, and her face fell. "What's the problem then?" "Bon-bon's sick," she explained - "she caught a bad flu." "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, I hope she gets well soon!" I said. "Thanks, Heartbeat!" She said, cheering up a bit. "I'd love to stay and chat a bit, but I should get going! It was nice seeing you!" She said as she began to walk down the road. "Bye Lyra, tell Bon-bon I said hi!" I said. "Will do!" She said as she started to trot. I really like Lyra, She was the very first friend I had here in Ponyville. Before I moved here, I lived in Baltimare, but I needed a change of pace. It was a too noisy and fast lifestyle for me. So I thought it would be a good idea to move to Ponyville. Before I could have ended that train of thought, I heard somepony shout something and then I felt myself tripping on something and fell to the ground. "Well, that just happened. And here I thought that my first day in Ponyville would be danger-free!" Said somepony from behind me. More like said from on top of me, if you ask. "What's just happened?" I blurted out. "And could you please get off me? You begin to feel heavy a bit..." "Oh wow. Woke up with the rude leg today, or what?" The mare sounded a bit hurt. Or maybe just annoyed. But at least she got off of me. Good move, smartass. Let's try again. I thought to myself. I sat up and started to dust down myself. Suddenly I saw a hoof. I accepted it and the mysterious mare helped me up. "Hey, err, sorry for knocking you over," I started as I continued to clean the dirt from my fur. Stupid grey fur. I hate that you can see the tiniest piece of anything is visible in it... "It's nothing, I just hope that you wouldn't have been so rude after it." She sounded hurt. Come on, you dummy, say something, I thought, as I realized that I started to like her voice a lot. "Err sorry for that too," I began as I finished with my fur, and finally looked up at her "I'm usually not that gorgeous! Um, I mean rude." That went well. You can't blame me though. She was stunning. She had warm, brownish yellow fur. Funny because normally I hate this color, but it suited her perfectly. Her mane and tail were long and curly. They were light brown with a streak in both of them, that matched her fur. And her eyes... Sweet Celestia, her eyes. She had hazel eyes. My favorite eye color. Thanks to this color her eyes looked so warm and comforting. "Ookay, I guess. Are you sure you didn't hurt your head?" She asked me worryingly. Whoops I think I zoned out for a bit too long. But she looks so nice! "Yup. Sorry for the rough meeting. Would you let me try it once more?" Please say yes, please say yes... "For sure." She said, smiling. YES! "You have a beautiful smile. My name is Heartbeat. What's yours?" So far so good... I thought. "Well thank you." She blushed a bit "It was nice running into you Heartbeat. I'm Golden Heart." She said as she shook my hoof. Nice looks? Check. Cute name? Check. Beautiful voice? Check. Oh, Luna help me! "So you said that this is your first day here?" I asked curiously. "Yes. I'm walking through the town, to get to know it." Golden Heart said cheerily. "Would you mind, if I joined you? I know this town like the back of my hoof. I can show you around if you want me to." I offered. I want to get to know this mare more. "That would be lovely! Thanks a bunch!" She blurted out. At that point I've totally forgotten what I wanted to do in the market... When I was on my way home, I met Pinkie. She noticed that I had a dreamy smile on my face. When she asked why I was so happy, I just said that I've finally met somepony special. Later that day when I got home I could only think about Golden Heart. She was perfect. She was absolutely stunning and intelligent too. Her sense of humor was nice too. It kinda matched mine. And her voice made me smile all the time. It was so rhythmic. The other thing that I liked about her voice is that it wasn't high-pitched. It was a bit deep but melodic at the same time. Golden Heart. What a cute name. It matched her. She was just as kind as Fluttershy. Yes, Fluttershy. The element of Kindness. At this point, I didn't realised that I was madly in love. Not yet. I needed more time to realise that, she is the mare I was looking for, through all these years. I was just so glad that I moved to Ponyville. I was looking forward to seeing her again. To talk with her again. Golden Heart was like a magnet. When she was around I felt a pulling in her direction. Even when I didn't know that she was around. That night, I decided that, on the next day, I'll go down to the market again. It would be just great to see her again. Then maybe I could get her to have a coffee with me or something. I want to befriend her. I want to get to know her. I want her to be by my side!
Hunting Golden HeartView OnlineThe story of our livesHunting Golden HeartAuthor's Note Hey guys! Just as I promised, here's the second chapter. I hope you'll enjoy it! -Silver String Hunting Golden Heart "Twilight, pleaseeee help meeee!" I was so afraid of losing Golden Heart, I had to talk with Twilight. Maybe she could give some advice or at least calm me down. I was already frazzled from the run I just had. The princess' castle is not that far away from home, but galloping there was a bit much. I really should work on my physical condition. At least I'm here though. And I hope Twilight didn't mind that I'm such a mess. "Heartbeat, firstly you should breathe normally again and after that, you can tell me about your thoughts." She had a point I had to admit. I was definitely out of breath, however, five minutes later I could finally begin to speak. "Sooo... I think I might have a romantical problem here. I met a mare, well I actually bumped into her in the market the day before yesterday. I have to admit that I was a little bit grumpy at the beginning but when I realized what I was doing and who I was talking to I was back to my naturally nice side." I started. "Hmm... To begin with I would argue with your nice side topic but I delay it now. Secondly, you seem to be very interested in this mysterious mare. I have to ask, who is she? Moreover, do you want me to give some advice?" She asked surprised. "Heeey, I am nice! Well, usually... Nevermind that. About her.. Her name is Golden Heart. She moved here two days ago. I showed her around the town. We've talked a bit, but mostly about Ponyville. So I don't know much about her yet. Right now I can only talk about her look. She looks like an autumn sunset. Her fur is almost gold, her mane and tail are light brown, with a little cute yellow streak in them. And her eyes... I just can't forget about them. They're hazel in color and you can just get lost in them." I definitely should stop dreaming about her loudly. "If I understand correctly, she has already turned your head. To sum up, what I've just heard, she looks cute and charming. Do you know where she lives?" "Well...one of the problems is this. I have no clue. But my bigger dilemma is that I don't have an idea what I should do to attract her attention." I felt myself blushing. "I don't suggest that you should hunt her around the whole town. Next time you meet her, you should ask her out on a date maybe. The main thing is that you shouldn't hide your interest in front of her because it can cause misunderstandings. Be gentle that's the most important." Okay, that was mind-blowing. "Wow, Twilight thank you. I didn't know that you were such an expert in romantical situations." "Well, don't thank me. Thank Rarity instead. Her overly romantic novels seem to take an effect on me." We shared a hearty laugh and finally said goodbye. Now it was time for me to find Golden Heart, but firstly I should visit Sugarcube Corner to get some sweets. Pinkie's empire was cute and fluffy all around the place. Getting there always cheered me up but this time I had another positive reason to be happy. When I arrived, the first pony I saw coming out of the shop was Golden Heart. She was smiling at her sweets and I had an idea. I slowly approached her from behind and near to her ear I suddenly claimed, "Surpriseeee!" That was genius! Or at least I thought it was. The next thing I knew is that I had a hoof-sized chocolate smudge on my left cheek. "Oh sweet Celestia, you've terrified me, Heartbeat! You deserve that cake on your face!" She laughed at me. "I don't mind it, this cake is delicious! Chocolate is my favorite. Are you okay though? You haven't got a heart attack or something, right?" "My heart is beating very fast, but I'm alright. Do you always act like that?" She winked at me. "I see what you did there. At least I know that you like my name. And to answer your question, I only act like this around somepony I like." I said, trying to flirt a bit. "Oh, I see. this means I belong to the precious ones." I swear I waited for a wink. "Anyway, would you like to drink a coffee or a hot chocolate with me?" Now my own heart started to beat very fast. "Hm... I don't have another programme for today so why not?" Am I seeing fireworks? Nope, this is just my joy I think. We went inside and sat down at the table in the far right corner. "Do you want a coffee or hot chocolate?" I asked. "I have to admit one of my secrets. I'm a coffeeholic so a cappuccino would be perfect." "One more mutual habit Golden Heart. A cappuccino for me too." I got up and went to tell Pinkie what we wanted. My reward was the usual 'Okie-dokie-lokie'. After a few minutes, she came bouncing with our drinks. Neither of them spilled, which I found amazing. I was thinking about the next question when Golden Heart broke the silence. "Actually I have a question about our situation. Would we consider this meeting as a date?" She asked a bit nervously. "Well, if you don't mind, we can." I hope she doesn't find it intrusive. "It is perfect for me too." She answered with a full-teeth smile. After this, we were just chatting about different topics. "If you want to be surprised Heartbeat, I'm telling you that once I climbed on a roof and kicked in a door." "Whaaaat? You're kidding me! You totally have to be kidding me!" I was shocked. "Okay, I'm telling you the details. A few months ago I visited my friend in Canterlot. There was a problem with her bathroom's lock, so I successfully locked myself in there. I decided to climb on the roof to reach the nearest window and I admit that it was a risky step. But with a brave jump, I arrived in the nearest room. Later my friend realized that she can't wash her mane so she tried to kick the door in. But she couldn't so we changed roles and in the end, the door broke down under my strength." After this, there was a long silence. "Okay, I admit that this was amazing... But how are you still alive?! Like you actually climbed onto the roof? How did you manage to do that?" I managed to meet a beautifully crazy mare. "Well there's no problem with my stamina and besides I could hang on some piece of iron." "Okay, this is impressive but please promise me you won't do such a dangerous action again." "I promise I won't." After she caused me a shock we continued talking. We finally both knew our address so we could catch up any time in the future. Unfortunately, we realized that the sunset was not too far away so we agreed to go home. "It was nice talking with you Heartbeat." Some butterflies in my stomach exploded from this statement. "I enjoyed it too, Golden Heart." "Do you want another date maybe on the day after tomorrow? Just to stick to our habits." Golden Heart's suggest sent me up to the sky and back. "It would be great! I still have a question though." "You want to know if I have a nickname, am I correct?" Now my mouth just fall open. How did she know? "H-How..?" I was trying to ask. "I've just guessed. And I do have one. You can use it if you want to. It's Goldy." Can this mare be even cuter? "Thank you, Goldy. Well, see you soon." "Bye Heartbeat!"
A day with the girlsView OnlineThe story of our livesA day with the girlsAuthor's Note Hi guys! A bit late, but here is the new chapter. Hope you'll enjoy. Silver String P.S.: I've corrected some mistakes in the previous chapters! A day with the girls "Heartbeat! Wake up!" That's what I heard before somepony was knocking on my door. Loudly. I just ducked under my pillow and turned my back on the door. It was a huge mistake. The next thing I heard was the door opening with a threatening click and after that, I was out of bed. "Errm, who's there?" I asked sleepily, still with my eyes closed. She didn't answer just went to my window and pulled the curtains, so Celestia's sun could shine inside my bedroom. I still didn't dare to open up my eyes, because I was afraid that I would go blind because of the sun. "Good morning Heartbeat! Well... Good afternoon I guess. You slept in." Okay, that was Twilight. Wait... Why is she in my bedroom? " 'Morning Twilight! What's up?" I asked as I rubbed my eyes. "And you said it's already afternoon?" "Yes. But the important thing is, that the girls and I are having a get-together. Would you like to join us in the castle?" She asked cheerily. "I'd love to, Twilight. Just give me a few minutes to get myself together." I said before going to the bathroom. After brushing my teeth, combing my mane and tail and some other things like this, I was walking with Twilight, getting nearer and nearer to the castle. We didn't talk, just enjoyed our little walk. When we arrived, she opened the door with her magic, and we were in. At the end of the long, crystally corridor, was the throne room. I was there once before. The only thing I can tell you is that it's majestic. As we entered the room, I saw a blue figurine, with a rainbow-colored tail speeding around in the air. All we could hear was chit-chatting, everypony was talking about something at the same time. "Heeeey everypony!" I shouted. Everything came to a halt. Even Rainbow Dash was so surprised that she stopped mid-air and nearly fell to the ground. Though she was the on to firstly recover from the sudden shock and came to greet me. "Hey, Heartbeat! Long time, no see! What's up with you?" She asked with a huge grin. "Yes, darling, how are you doing?" Rarity added in. "Yer doin' fine, Sugarcube?" Now that was Applejack. "Umm... H-Hello Heartbeat!" That's Fluttershy. At least I think. It's so hard to hear her. "Heartbeat! It's nice to see you again!" And that was Starlight. "Hey girls! It's nice to see all of you again. But wheres Pinkie Pie? Twilight said that all of you would be here." I asked, wondering where Pinkie could be. "Oh don't worry darling, she should be here at any moment now with our drinks." Rarity explained. Just as she finished her sentence, I felt a little tap on my shoulder and heard a big giggle. "Who, when, what?" I yelped as I turned around to see Pinkie behind me. "Hi, Heartbeat!" She said with a huge smile. "Hi, Pinkie, nice to see you again!" I greeted. "Okay so now that everypony's here, let's take a seat, and have our drinks." Twilight exclaimed. "Great idea Twilight, I've brought everypony's favorite. Rarity here's your caramel frappucino. RD, your double espresso. Fluttershy, this hot chocolate is waiting for you, now with extra sprinkles. Applejack, your Ponish coffee with cider. Twilight you get your usual black. I have my vanilla iced macchiato with extra sugar, and of course rainbow-colored. A mocha for Starlight. And last but not least, here's your cappuccino, Heartbeat. And I baked some muffins, so we get to eat something too." She listed, as she pulled out each drink and then the muffins from Celestia knows where. "Thank you, Pinkie." we said in unison. "It's nothing. I know your favorites like the back of my hoof. It was a bit hard to make them with the twins around. They always drink the milk before I could use it." She laughed and we joined in. "So how are you doing, girls? Did you have any cool adventures recently?" I asked eagerly. "Well, I have been sent to Canterlot on a mission. I had to solve a friendship problem between the royal sisters!" Starlight began "I was nervous, but I also felt great. It was nice, spending a full day with the princesses. Especially with Princess Luna. In the time I was supposed to help them, I almost doomed all of Equestria, when I switched their cutie marks. But all worked out in the end." She giggled nervously at Twilight. My mouth fell open... "You did what? You switched their cutie marks? You're crazy!" She rolled her eyes at me. "You're a crazy genius! Haha, I bet their faces were hilarious." I said, starting to laugh. "You got it Heartbeat, they were priceless!" Starlight answered. At this point, I was imagining the faces of the royal sisters. All shocked and confused at the thought that a unicorn just switched their marks. It was mind-blowing. I began to wipe my tears away, that formed because of my hard laughter. "Umm... Starlight? What did you mean when you said that it was ESPECIALLY nice with Princess Luna, hmm?" Rainbow asked with a cocky grin on her face. "I-I meant nothing. Just drop it." Starlight mumbled. "What the hay, don't you feel a little hot in here girls? I can see that Starlight got a bit o' redness on her cheeks. Should I open the window, Sugarcube?" Applejack added. Starlight, at this point clearly flustered, just hid her face behind her hooves. "Oh, you two stop it right now! Do not be like that." Rarity started as she walked around the table to Starlight. "Starlight clearly admires Princess Luna. But that's not a laughing matter!" "Chillax, Rarity. We didn't want to hurt her or anything..." Rainbow scowled. "Hmpf... I hoped so. Because it is just like the latest romance novel I've read!" Rarity said dreamily. "Oh, Luna help me... Here we go again." Applejack said teasingly. "Just hush darling. It's a beautiful story between a common stallion and princess. They meet where two paths in the forest cross each other. They couldn't see the other walking there and they bumped into each other and fell in love at first sight..." I think there was more but the muffin in her mouth was stopping her from continuing the story. "Bull's eye!" Rainbow shouted before she received another muffin on her muzzle. The next ten minutes were chaotic. Twilight sat at the table, with her head in her hooves. I, on the other hoof, was laughing my flank off at the sight in front of me. Muffins were tossed in every direction. I could see neither RD nor Fluttershy they were covered from head to hoof. Rarity was throwing muffin from behind Applejack, who received most of the muffins aimed at the white unicorn. Starlight was in the middle of the scene with her shield up, trying to stop them. After another ten minutes or so, the vicious war finally died down, thanks to the loss of all of the ammunition. "You two can laugh as much as you want, but maybe someday you'll meet your Prince Charming, just like in this story." Rarity grumbled, with her head held high. Just like how I met Goldy "Who's Goldy?" Fluttershy muttered. "W-What? Did I-I say that out loud?" I stammered. Now every eye was on me. "Uuuhh Uuuuhh I know who she is!" Pinkie squealed. "She is the mare on a date with Heartbeat yesterday!" I was blushing furiously by the time Pinkie answered Fluttershy's question. "Hang on. You had a date yesterday?! That's at least forty percent cooler than Rarity's romance story because it's real life!" Rainbow said. "Well yeah, I guess" I mumbled. "Well, don't leave us hangin', Sugar." Applejack insisted. "Okay, okay. I've met her three days ago. We actually bumped into each other. Really, we knocked over one another. After she helped me up, I found out that she moved to Ponyville the other day, so I showed her around the town. At sunset, we parted and went home." What a nice beginning to a love story... "What does she look like, darling?" Rarity asked. "She's beautiful. Her fur is almost gold, her mane and tail are curly and light brown, with a little yellow streak in them. ANd her eyes are hazel. My favorite color. And I just love how the color of her fur matches her full name. Golden Heart." I sighed as I imagined her. "Equestria to Heartbeat! Do you hear me?" Twilight asked jokingly as the others giggled. "Ermm yes, so where was I? Oh yeah. So yesterday, I met her again at Sugarcube Corner. We went in for a coffee, and she was the one to declare it as a date. We spoke about literally everything. I was enjoying it so much... It was really nice to talk to her. And we agreed to have a date tomorrow too." I said excitedly. "Whoa, looks like somepony's in the game at last!" Rainbow winked at me. "I hope so too, Dashie!" I said. "Well darling, please don't leave us out when something happens. If you want, you can stop by the boutique and tell me how your date went! It would be lovely!" Rarity said. "We'll see, but that would be nice!" I said with a smile. "Hey girls, I don't want to interrupt, but it's almost sundown, so you should head home before it's too dark!" Starlight warned us. At this everypony got up and started for the door. When we reached it everypony said her goodbyes and started to head home. I couldn't sleep that, night. I was wide awake long after midnight, and thinking about my next date with Goldy. I can only hope that it will go as smooth as the first one.
A little tripView OnlineThe story of our livesA little tripAuthor's Note Hey guys! So here's the next chapter. This time my girlfriend helped me too. We hope you'll enjoy it. -Silver String & Golden Heart A little trip "Good morning Sunshine, a trip awaits! I hope you have slept enough 'cause it will be a long day with a huge amount of walkiiiing!" Actually I haven't started a morning as cheerfully as now, but let's be honest, appering in front of Goldy's home is the best idea I've ever had. Hopefully she won't kick me out. "Who is this crazy mare who interrupt..." She began it with an angry tone, but after she'd seen me, her jaw fell down. " Oh hello Heartbeat, I have almost kicked you down." She said jokingly. "Don't worry, this day will be worth getting up early. I have a surprise planned for you. Besides, it's not even that early, it's 11am. So put yourself together and let's go!" I winked at her. "You don't want to ponynap and take me to a dark and hidden forest, do you?" She laughed, faking fear. "You'll never figure it out if you don't come with me." I put on my best devilish grin. "Fine... but next time, I am the one who times our date. " For this claim I couldn't hide my smile but neither could she. Half an hour later we were heading to our destination finally. I swear I had never met a slower mare before her. "When do we arrive there? I'm bored." How could she be so cute during complaining? "Geez, what a whiny mare you are... By the way, we're here." I declared, as the train station came into view. As we arrived, I saw her confused face, which was incredibly cute. "Say that we won't visit your probably awful grandparents or I'm not here." "Calm dow, silly. We're not going there... At least for now. I had a great idea yesterday, so now we're going to have an excellent trip to no less city than Canterlot!" I exclaimed... Well almost shouted. "Do you like it?" "Really?! I mean I heard about the city, but I've never been there before! It's perfect! Thank you Heartbeat!" Seeing her enjoying the idea made my butterflies do flips in my stomach. "Gladly Goldy. Anyway, the journey takes an hour so maybe we should do something." "Uhhhhh, I have a great idea! Don't make a fearful face like that, it will be awesome!" "Well, let me decide it after you've explained." "Okay, so did you bring some food?" "Yup, Pinkie made me muffins." "Cool, we will play....Truth or Muffin! I ask a question and you can't eat until you answer. Usually it's torturing seeing the other eating and feel that you can't. But it motivates the other to reply." "Should I be afraid? Maybe you are the one who takes me to an unknown forest if I don't answer correctly." I joked. "No, the aim of the game is to get to know each other better." For this statement my stomach grumbled loudly just to make sure that I was hungry. "My stomach has decided. Let's play." "Okay, then you should start so you can eat while I answer." Actually it was a good opportunity for two things. Firstly I really wanted to know the taste of Pinkie's muffin. Secondly I had a question to ask for a few days. "Sooo... I know that we are on a date, but do you have a coltfriend?" Her reaction suprised me. She blushed hardly and couldn't decide to cry or laugh. "I thought that you would ask it. When we bumped into each other I had a coltfriend. To be honest I broke up with him after our first date but I wouldn't consider it as cheating. We were together for a really short time maybe two weeks. I liked him but there was no love. And I recognized the problem when I went to sleep and my thoughts were around you and I totally forgot about my coltfriend. So before this date I kicked him out." Goldy blurted out, before hiding her muzzle in one of the muffins. "Oookay... That was a mouthful. Well don't worry about it. Actually, I'm quite flattered of the fact that you've kicked him out because of me. So please, the name of Celestia, get your muzzle out of that muffin, before you choke on it. I want to keep you for a bit longer." I said as she was trying to breathe through that piece of pastry. Even though I tried to joke around a bit, Goldy was still nervous. Well I understand why she was like that. I think she thought that I would react completely different. "Let's just continue the game. It's your turn." I said smiling. "You said you are happy about my marital state. Does it mean that you have feelings towards me?" She asked with a wink. "Really? You ask me this? If my memory is correct, YOU were the one who declared our first official meeting as a date. Prove me wrong if you can." I exlaimed with a cocky grin. "True true. But it's my turn to ask." "You got me there... Umm... How do I say it? I liked you from the moment we bumped into each other. Firstly I was like, yeah she's a cute mare and everything, but I didn't thought that we would start talking like this. So yes. I like you. Like a lot, And I'm quite enjoying myself with you." "I feel the same Heartbeat. I feel the same." After this scene, we were playing this game but only to get to know each other better. For example I already knew her favourite color was that pink you could see at sunset and she loves reading so many books. Moreover she loves travelling so this journey was an absolute hit. I told her that my favourite was black and our mutual hobby was reading and I had always loved animals so I was thinking about adopting a pet most likely a dog. "I think that's it for now, Goldy. It looks like we've arrived." I said as we saw the enormous gates of Canterlot. All we could see from the train were the skyscrapers everywhere, the beautiful marble-white walls, the cobble stone streets, and the well-dressed nobles going around the city. After another two minutes, our train reached it's final destination, the Main Station, from where we could see the Royal Palace. "Whoa..." Goldy sighed as we got off the train. "It's huge. It's beautiful. I can't believe I've never been here before. "Well now that you know you like the place, we can come here as often as you want to." I offered. We started to walk around and chat about the city, I showed her some places I know, all thanks to Twilight and the girls. I showed her Rarity's boutique, where we met Sassy Sadles, after that we wandered between the skyscrapers, looking up at them to the point where both of us got dizzy. I actually got lost for a little while, but after some time, I realised where we were, so I showed her the place, which I love the most here. Donut Joe's. He has the best donuts in the city. We went in and when Goldy saw just how many donuts were there, her face was glued to the sight. You could find anything you want. We had a hard time to decide what we wanted. At the end she chose vanilla donuts with strawberry filling and I got some chocolate ones with pink topping. They actually resembled Pinkie Pie quite well. Next, we went to a nearby park and sat down on a bench to eat our donuts. "It's like a picnic date! I love it. It's nice to be here with you Heartbeat!" "Agreed. And this little park is quite lovely too, don't you think?" I asked, smiling at her. "Yes, it's really calming. By the way, what is our next destination?" "After our meal, we're heading to our last place. I planned to visit the library if it's good to you." She seemed to be freezed for a few minutes. I already wanted to wake her up or something when she suddenly got up and started to jump around the bench. "Yeesssss, finally a library!!! I haven't been in one since I moved to Ponyville! It's a too long time." She was addicted to books more like me. "Whoa there feisty-pants." I laughed. "We should finish our meal first." "Do we have to?" She pouted. "Okay, I guess we can finish it on the train when we go home. But only because I see that you really want to go." "Yesyesyesyesyesyes. Thank you Heartbeat! You're the best!" She shouted before she started to gallop in a direction. After a bit she stopped and came back. "Sooo... Which way are we going exactly?" She asked, her face all blushed. I couldn't help it. I started to laugh. The scene was just too hilarious and cute at the same time. She was like a little filly when her parents tell her that they're going to the new playground. After ten minutes of walking... More like jumping if you ask Goldy. We finally reached Canterlot Library. Golden Heart admired the outside of the beautifully built building... For like five seconds, before darting in. When she realised I wasn't coming, she looked back from the door. "Come on Heartbeat. The good stuff is inside, you dummy." She said, disappearing again. "I'm coming. But I don't think that you heard that." I laughed to myself. When I entered, all I could see were rows upon rows of acient and recent books. You could spend your whole life here and not run out of books. Except if you're Twilight. I bet she and Goldy would get on well. It felt like an eternity to find Golden Heart. When I finally did, I couldn't believe my eyes. She was sitting in the middle of one row, books all around her. I mean really. I couldn't see the floor around her. "Finally you got here! Sorry I couldn't help myself so I started a few books." She beamed. "A few? There's like a dozen around you." I laughed. "I'm sorry to interrupt though, but we shoulld get going, or we'll gonna miss the train." "Ohh... Well, we should go then." She said, her head hanging low. "I'm sorry Goldy. We'll come back, I promise." It will be great. We actually almost missed the train 'cause she tried to run back... Twice. We were the last ones to get on the train. Shortly after we left Canterlot, she fall asleep. She moved around a bit, at reached my hind legs with her head. So she practically slept on me, on the way back. Not that i minded it. When we reached Ponyville, it was already dark. I woke her up and we got off the train. "If you don't mind it, I'll keep you company until you get home. I want to make sure that you're safe." I offered. "Thank you, Heartbeat! That would be lovely!" Our walk was short and we didn't talk much. I could see that she was tired. I think she'll be fast asleep as soon as she reaches the bed. We were standing on her doorstep, saying our goodbyes. "This was a great day. I really love spending time with you, Goldy." I meant every word. "Thank you, Heartbeat. I can't remember another date like this. It was perfect. I love spending time with you too." She said as she tuck a strand of my mane behind my ear. It was perfect like Rarity's romance novel. We stood there, under Luna's Moon on a cool summer night. With a mare who had a special place in my heart, even if met only a few days ago. We stood there as she was kissing me. At first I couldn't believe that this was happening. But I couldn't think much more, I melted into the kiss. Her soft lips felt so great against mine. It was perfect. It felt right.
