I Can't Be In Love

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Sunset Shimmer already missed Twilight. She was on her living room whining like a sad puppy hugging both of her knees together and was crying a little. Ever since the nerd went home she was having second thoughts if she would follow her but she doesn't want to be accused as a stalker so she just went inside and did this for about two hours. She wipes her tears away when she saw the moon shining through her house, she left the apartment and guarded her "turf".

She was watching cars moving back and forth, people talking, couples walking as well, and of course dogs. She was a big dog person but she had no money to afford a pet. She removes her old dirty hat and looks at it sadly, there was a big reason why she was a street rat but she rather not tell anyone about it. She heard a chirp from her side and smiled because she knew who it was.

"Welcome back Philomena, How's the little rascals coming along?" Sunset asked which earned her a peck on the head which hurt a little.

"Kidding! But seriously, they pooped on my table". Philomena rolled her eyes and nuzzled her master's cheek which put a smile on Sunset's face.

"Love you too Phil". She sighed sadly which made the bird feel concern so she sat on her master's shoulder.

"Something happened yesterday girl and.... I feel weird after she left". Philomena cooed signalling her to continue.

"Okay so yesterday I was guarding my turf as usual when all of a sudden I saw the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in Canterlot City but she was crying. I couldn't tell what she was saying so I just assume she was dump since all of the girls who come to this alley just got dump by their boyfriends. So back to the problem, three guys showed up trying to take her away to kidnap her or something so I suddenly acted brave and showed them who's boss. I saw how bad the weather was so I told her that she could stay with me. We talked for a while and we both have the same interest". Sunset blushed as she remembered the conversations she shared with Twilight. Philomena knew where this is going.

"So when it was night time we slept together but hear me out girl, She wanted us to sleep together because she noticed that the couch was really rigged. This morning came and we both went to the junkyard so I can find some cool stuff then I started flirting.... I don't know why but she just looks so cute when I sweet talk her. Well then she left and promise that she would visit me everyday after she finish her day at school, I still remember her cute smile and her laugh that is music to my ears". Sunset finished and looks at her pet, she noticed that her pet had the answer to her problem. Philomena chirp and Sunset Shimmer blushed so hard.

"Wh-What?! I can't be like that! She might think I'm weird, Plus I'm a street rat and a girl. Let's face it girl she would never like me". Philomena chirped again.

"Because I can't give her the world she wanted, I'm a street rat. I don't want people to look at Twilight and laugh at her because she's dating a street rat.". Sunset replied and felt a wing on her chest. She looks down to see her pet giving her a reassuring smile that made her smile.

"You're right girl.... I'm just going to be a good friend to her for a while then I'll find the perfect opportunity to tell her about my feelings. If I became rich I'm sure Twilight will like me!" With that, Sunset heard a noise from below and saw the same guys from yesterday forcing a girl to come with them.

"Here we go again, they never learn do they?". Sunset plainly said and stood up doing stretches before saving another damsel in distress.

"It was fun catching up with you Philomena, say hi to the little sweeties for me". Sunset jumped off the building and starts beating up the boys. She looked at the damsel and knew who it was.

"Sonata? I thought you were studying abroad?" Sunset said.

"I don't know what you're talking about bacon head but I don't want another rainbow laser hitting me again!" Sonata ran off leaving Sunset confuse.

"Rainbow... laser? That move sounds like it came from a kid's show". Sunset said as she went home.


Twilight Sparkle couldn't concentrate. She was doing her homework which is due tomorrow but she couldn't stop thinking about Sunset Shimmer, well the human Sunset Shimmer. She smiled and blushed as she remembered her friend's cheesy pick up lines that she had said to her. Spike was looking at her master who was waiting for her to play with him but she seems to be distracted.

"Twilight?". No response.

"Um Twilight? You promise that you would play with me". Still no response. Spike sighed and went downstairs for back up.

As Twilight daydreamed she didn't noticed that her former babysitter Cadence entered her room with a smile on her face because she had notice something on her sister-in-law.

"This has been going on ever since she came back". Spike said.

"I know that expression when I see it". Cadence said.

"Well now I want to take a nap". Spike went to bed so that Cadence would handle this.

"Hey ladybug". Twilight snapped out of her thoughts and saw Cadence. She quickly went in front of her and did the thing that they did when they were young.

"Sunshine sunshine ladybugs awake, clap you're hands and do a little shake!". As they were done both of them hugged each other while laughing. They broke off the hug and sat on the bed.

"So how did the date go Twily?" Twilight looked away remembering the event and Cadence got worried.

"Timber broke up with me".

"He WHAT?!" The door slammed opened to reveal Shining Armor in his police outfit with a gun on his hand.

"Nobody breaks my little ladybug's heart!" Cadence yelled as she and her husband were ready to kill Timber but Twilight stopped them before they even leave.

"Wa-Wait don't worry I moved on pretty quickly!" They both still didn't listen and Twilight had to reveal her secret.

"I fell in love with someone else!" Cadence squealed in excitement while Shining Armor had the "here we go again" face.

"EEEE! who is this lucky boy?!" The three of them sat on the couch with Nightlight and Velvet looking at Twilight who was blushing so hard.

"We-Well I wouldn't say it's a bo-boy". Twilight twirled a strand of her hair thinking about Sunset Shimmer again for the 11th time. They weren't shock because they knew Twilight Sparkle was bi so they didn't mind.

"A girl eh?" Nightlight said.

"She's the most charming person I have ever met. She's really caring" Twilight blushed and all of them hugged.

"This girl seems like a wonderful person, I like to meet her sometimes". This made Twilight snapped out of her thoughts and panicked inside.

Oh no! I don't think Sunset want that! She told me that she's afraid of adults!!!

"Oh um.... sure I guess".

YOU FOOL!

"Wonderful! Tell her she can come here anytime". Velvet said.

"I will mom". Twilight nervously said.
