Me and Gallus walked together through the school gardens.

“We’re going to the dorm building, me and my friends always meet up there before we go out.” Gallus told me.

“Ok!” I replied cheerfully. “So, w-where are we going to eat?” I asked.

“Don’t know, most likely to the hay burger place.” Said Gallus.

“O-ok.” I said. “I haven’t actually ever had a hay burger.”

“Well, I’m pretty sure you’ll like it.” Was the last thing Gallus said before we walked into the dorm building. Looked like everyone was there.

“There you are Gallus, we’re just talking about where to eat.” Smolder said.

“Could we go to the hay burger place?” Gallus asked.

“Sounds good to me” Said Smolder.

“Yona like hay burger.”

“Why not?” Said Sandbar.

“Ya! Let’s go there!” The pink hippogriff yelled cheerfully.

“Well, everyone else wants to go to get hay burgers, so I’ll go too.” Said Ocellus.

“Alright then, let’s go.” Said Gallus.

We walked together as a group out of the building, well, they walked together as a group, and I followed silently close behind.

“Hey, why Kirin not with friends?” The yak slowed down and asked me.

“Oh, I don’t know, i-it’s just, you all know each other so well, and I don’t e-even know your name... I-I’m WinterStream b-by the way...” I said nervously.

“Yak name Yona, WinterStream is beautiful name.” She replied.

“O-oh, t-thanks, t-that’s really kind o-of you.” I stammered, starting to blush.

“No problem, Why Kirin face red?” Yona asked.

“N-no re-reason!” I said quickly.

“If WinterStream say so.” Yona said. “Yona go back to talking with Sandbar now.”

“O-ok, b-bye.” I said.

We then got to the hay burger place, thankfully there wasn’t many ponies there. We walk over to a booth and sit down together.

Gallus sat next to me, and on my other side was Sandbar, who was sitting next to Yona. Gallus was also sitting next to Smolder, then the hippogriff, and Ocellus.

I started eating as soon as I got mine, breakfast was hours ago, and I was pretty hungry.

“Hey, WinterStream.” Gallus turned to me.

“Y-ya?” I asked.

“So, like, since you’re a Kirin, and you have a weird horn thing, can you use magic like a unicorn?” Gallus asked.

“U-uh, well, I-I mean I can l-levitate objects, b-but that’s about it, a-and that’s about a-all I can do, and i-it’s the same f-for the other Kirin t-too.” I explained.

“Cool, thanks.” Gallus said then turned back to Smolder.

I finished my hay burger and fries. “S-so, uh, w-what do y-you all do for f-fun?” I asked nervously only just loud enough for everyone to hear me.

“All sorts of stuff! We really like hanging out by the little lake near the school together, and we also hangout at the tree house! Aaaaaand we like flying around together!” The hippogriff yelled out before anyone else could respond.

“Fly around? H-how could you d-do that? Not all of you h-have wings...” I questioned her.

“Us with wings carry everycreature who doesn’t have wings!” She replied.

“O-oh, ok, cool, I g-guess, but sounds kinda d-dangerous and scary...” I said.

“Don’t worry, we’re careful.” Gallus reassured me.

“It get scary at first, Yona scared first time too, but when Yona get used to it, it fun.” Yona told me.

“Hey, why we go out for a fly now?” Smolder asked.

“Sure” Sandbar said. “That is, if everyone else wants to.”

“Eh, why not?” Gallus spoke next.

“Yak wanna fly” Yona said.

“Ok, if it’s what everyone else wants.” Ocellus said.

“Ya! Let’s go flying!!!” The Hippogriff screamed.

“O-ok, if everyone else w-wants to... I’m in.” I said not wanting to disappoint anyone.

And with that, we paid for our food (which I felt bad for them having to pay for me), and we walked out of the building.

“Ok, so w-“ before I could finish my sentence, talons grabbed me and I was lifted slightly above the ground.

I screamed, it was really sudden and I am pretty jumpy. I turned my head around, Gallus.

“You nearly gave me a heart attack. Don’t ever do that again.” I said firmly, not stuttering for once.

“Ok ok, fiiiiiine, I’ll warn you next time.” He said rolling his eyes.

“T-thanks.” I went back to my stuttering voice. Then it hit me.

His. Arms. Were. Rapped. Around. Me.

I blushed, like crazy, my face was all red, it was impossible to see any of my light blue fur. I knew I was blushing, I tried to cover my face as much as I could with my hooves, and somehow, thank Celestia somehow, Gallus didn’t notice.

But my luck was short-lived, when the others flew up, the hippogriff was first to notice.

“Heya, WinterStream, that is your name right? Why is your face all red?” She asked.

“I-I, uh, umm, I d-don’t know.” I stammered nervously.

“Ok!” She said. “Why don’t we fly over to the beach?!”

“Yeah, the beach is the best!” Sandbar said, he was being carried by silver stream while Yona was being carried by Smolder and Ocellus.

“Y-ya, I’d l-like to go to the b-beach.” I said.

“Sure.” Gallus said.

“Yak wanna go to beach too.” Yona added.

“Ya, that sounds like fun.” Ocellus said.

“Why not?” Smolder said.

We all flew to the beach, it was at the edge of a pond near the school. It was small, but it was nice too, the wildlife around it reminded me of home.

Gallus set me down.

“T-that was actually pretty fun.” I commented.

“You weren’t nearly as scared as I thought you would be.” Gallus told me.

“R-really?” I asked him.

“Ya, you’re pretty brave.” Gallus told me, I blushed a little.

“T-thanks...” I said as everyone was lose landed, Gallus and I got there first.

“Who wants to go swimming?” Ocellus asked.

“I’ll go!” The hippogriff shouted.

“When do you NOT go swimming when we’re at the beach, Silverstream?” Gallus asked.

“I don’t know!” She said.

“I think I-I’ll go a-swimming too.” I said.

“Ok! Let’s go!” Said the Hippogriff, I think her name is Silverstream, but I’m not sure.

We walked to the water together while the others did there own thing on dry land. I swam around for a bit before we got out and dried off, then we started walking back to the dorms as a group.

Ocellus walked up to me.

“So, do you read a lot?” Ocellus asked me.

“Ya, but I like writing s-some of my own stories m-more.” I told her.

“Maybe I could read some of them, I really like reading.” Ocellus said.

“U-uh, y-ya, totally, w-we could read together sometime...” I said nervously. She could NOT read my stories, well, at least the majority of them. Most of my stories had to do with tickling, because it’s one of my only ways of satisfying my tickle fetish, no doubt she wouldn’t want to be my friend anymore if she read that -just like my old Kirin friends-, that is, if I can even call her a friend, I mean, we only just met. I mean, I can hide my tickling stories and look for my other stories, like my story about timber wolves, or my daring do fanfiction, or maybe even my story called Mute which is about a pony who can’t talk which is of course based off my experience. But no matter what, I have to make sure no one reads my other stories.

“Hey.” my thoughts were interrupted. “You seamed to really like the beach, maybe sometime you could come over to Mount Aris with me, and we could go to the awesome beach we have there!” Silverstream said.

“That would b-be awesome!” I told her.

“Oh, I’m Silverstream by the way!” She said cheerfully.

“N-nice to m-meet you.” I said. Called it.

We walked into the dorm building.

“We’ve got about 20 minutes until the bell rings.” Sandbar commented.

“I-I’m going to m-my dorm, I-I need to work on s-something.” I said, then walked through the door to my dorm.

I worked on making a new story, I almost finished the first Chapter before the bell rang.

Author's Note

Omg, FINALLY finished this. Idk why this took so long, it took me quite a few hours to finish this, and I don’t get much time a day to do so.
