Sculpted Relations

“Too fast Sunset! Too fast,” Wallflower Blush cried out as she wrapped her sweater clad arms around the waist of her girlfriend. Sunset Shimmer didn’t seem to notice her passengers pleas, or simply wanted to tease the girl, as she revved her motorcycle and laughed out in excitement as yet another burst of speed rocketed the bike forward. The red and gold haired girl loved the feeling of the open road, and particularly relished every moment she could go all out without needing her stuffy helmet. That also, coincidently, lined up with whenever Wallflower wanted to go on a date with her. It was a win win in her mind, she just wished Wallflower would lighten up a little and enjoy the rush.

It took every ounce of willpower for the terrified passenger to keep her eyes open. She, unfortunately, had to. Sunset had no clue where they were going, Wallflower opting to tell her it was a surprise. That meant she had to keep an eye out for where they were going. That would be hard enough normally, but the long locks of hair from Sunset being tossed in her face by the wind didn’t help a bit. The bite of the cold wind piercing through her olive green sweater only made things worse, making her shake and shiver. It wasn’t all bad, however, they’ve been together for three months now, and while Sunset may be a bit too active for Wallflower’s liking; she was a great hugger, and never failed to get her comfortable after one of their rides. That was another reason she was holding onto her companion’s waist so hard, she was warm, even now. The black leather jacket probably helped with that, as much as she pained to give credit to anything made of leather.

There! Up ahead of them was their destination. She willed her hand to release its vice grip on her girlfriends waist so she could point towards the entrance of their destination. A large enclosed area of land, a few statues placed here and there with some people walking along some paths. Surprisingly, Wallflower was able to do so, shakily bringing her hand up alongside Sunset’s body. A brief tilt of her head showed that the driver had acknowledged the silent direction before the motorcycle abruptly jerked before tilting to the right. Wallflower gave a small yelp as she was suddenly thrown off balance, not expecting the sudden turn. Sunset, however, knew that she’d be getting no help turning from her passenger.

Pulling into one of the parking spots, Sunset finally put her foot to the ground, halting the bike. Her girlfriend wasted no time in getting off the vehicle and sliding off the helmet to reveal the messy bun she put her forest green hair in before they took off on their journey. She still shook from the brutally cold wind that their speed produced, but she tried to ignore it as she undid the hairband holding her hair up. She let it fall past her shoulders, using her hands to undo the matting that the helmet caused, returning it to it’s naturally messy and poofy state.

“You know, I have been telling you that just because it’s spring, doesn’t mean it’s not going to be cold on the bike. I told you we should have gotten you a leather jacket Wally,” Sunset wrapped an arm around Wallflower, giving her shoulder a small squeeze as she brought her in close, sharing her warmth. She didn’t seem to notice the small scowl Wallflower gave her.

“You know how I feel about leather Sunset, and I told you I don’t like being called that…” Wallflower squirmed a bit in her captors grip though made no real attempt to escape, moving herself only to make herself more comfortable. Sunset gave a small roll of her eyes as a response.

“Rarity said you could use faux leather, but I mean if that isn’t ok she said she can use some other materials. You just need a good windbreaker is all. A sweater does nothing to stop the cold, believe me, I’ve tried all sorts of outfits on my bike. By the way, where are we anyway, you never told me where we were going.”

Wallflower hated to admit that Sunset might be right, but well, she was. It was her own decision not to take up Rarity on her countless offers to make her some appropriate clothes for her rides with Sunset. Still, it was getting warmer and warmer every day, she was sure it’d be fine. She was a bit annoyed that Sunset continued to ignore her requests to use her nickname, but she simply took a breath. They were there to have a nice date, Wallflower wasn’t going to let the little things bother her. She looked to Sunset with a smile, even if it might have been partially forced.

“It’s called Grounds for Sculptures. It’s a mix of a botanical garden and a sculpture garden, I’ve heard it’s a great place for dates!” As she spoke, Wallflower’s voice became less of a person trying to convince, and more of a person genuinely excited about what they were about to do. The response Sunset gave however, was far from what she wanted, though, she was sort of expecting it, there was a reason she didn’t tell Sunset where they were going after all.

“Oh… I see…” A thin line formed as Sunset’s lips pressed together, the curls of a frown just teasing at the corners of her mouth. That look alone deflated Wallflower’s already sensitive mood. She knew Sunset wasn’t going to be happy, but she assumed that she’d at least pretend to be fine with it, go with the flow of it and try to enjoy herself. That’s what she did every time Sunset dragged her to do anything at least. She gave a small sigh and wrapped her arms around Sunset’s waist, looking up to the taller girl with slightly pleading eyes.

“Please Sunset, we came all this way, and who knows? You might actually like it.”

Sunset gave a small roll of her eyes, sighing, though Wallflower did see a small smirk on the taller girls face. The smile warmed the green haired girl more than any jacket could, and gave her hope that today might not be as bad of a day as it started to go.

“Fine, we can go take a look, but tomorrow we go to the mall after school, deal?”

There was always a catch, whether it was to go to a certain restaurant or take some time in Wallflower’s garden, Sunset always wanted something in return for cooperating. If it was anyone else the young gardener might be pissed, well it did kinda tick her off, but she knew when to take a win. It did cool her off a bit, more than she expected it to, however. She kept a smile on her face though, hugging Sunset a bit tighter.

“Thanks Sunset, I promise you won’t regret this. I heard this is supposed to be one of the nicest places to go on a date in the area. I’ve wanted to come here since it opened a few years ago.”

“Oh! See that one? It’s based on one of Van Gogh’s art pieces. It’s amazing how they were able to get the whole scene down perfectly.”

“Mhm…”

“I mean they even got the flowers right, they must have been expensive, they’re not native to this area, and they’re also high maintenance.”

“Right…”

“You haven’t been listening to anything I’ve said have you?”

“Mhm…”

“Sunset!” Wallflower stopped, glaring at Sunset. For the last hour or so, Sunset had simply been following along her girlfriend. She had been genuinely trying to listen to what Wallflower had to say, but she quickly found it was nearly impossible to get into it. Wallflower enjoyed it, but to Sunset, it was all just… stuff. Sunset took a step away from the green haired girl, giving a sigh.

“Look, I’m sorry, I’m just not into this kind of thing, ok? Why couldn’t we just go to Equestria Land, it’s a lot more fun than here,” Sunset threw her hands up in a shrug. It probably came out harsher than she anticipated, but if she noticed, she didn’t bother to point it out. Wallflower also threw her hands up, letting out an annoyed groan.

“We went to Equestria Land yesterday! And last weekend! And the weekend before that! Not only am I tired of going there, I never liked going.”

Sunset gave a roll of her eyes as she crosses her arms, “Please, we had fun going there and you know it, think of all the rides we went on. Even if you didn’t enjoy it, you never told me that, how would I know?”

“Wrong, I hate the amusement park, you’re the one who always has fun. I just deal with it because you never really give me a choice! You always just ignore me when I try to ask to do something else.”

“That’s not fair Wally, and you know it..”

“Stop calling me that!” Wallflower screamed, her blood starting to boil. She didn’t want to yell but she couldn’t stop herself, the situation calling for nothing less, “I told you countless times. I. Hate. That. Nickname! And you want to talk about fair? Every single time we go somewhere, it’s someplace of your choosing. Its always where you want to go, do you ask me? No! And the few times I actually get to choose, you always try to weasel your way out! When was the last time you even came to my garden with me? Huh?”

Sunset brought her hands up in annoyance before slamming them back down to her sides, she audibly groaned at what she thought was such a trivial thing, “You act like I never do anything for you! I gave you friends, I gave you my love. Hell! I gave you a place to stay and got you away from your bigot of a father!”

“Don’t you bring him into this! Everything was fine until you had to open your mouth after I specifically told you not to tell him we were together! And gave me friends? I was happy with just my garden, I always get so anxious when I’m around your friends, the only one who seems to get me is Fluttershy.”

“Well then why didn’t you go ahead and date her? If you seem to hate being around me?”

“I don’t know anymore!” Wallflower yelled. She soon took an intake of air as she heard a few gasps from the crowd she only just started to notice had been forming to watch this fight. She was taken aback, starting to feel the eyes of every single person bearing down on her, silently judging. Her eyes shifted from one side of the crowd to another as she felt her breathing go erratic.

Apparently, Sunset noticed this, her anger being quelled as she saw the girl she does enjoy being around start to delve into a panic attack. She would reach out her hand slightly, moving forward to try to comfort the poor girl. However, Wallflower jerked back, her breathing remaining erratic, only able to utter one sentence.

“I-I’m leave, d-dont come after me…” With that, Wallflower took off, shoving her way through the ring of people and finally out of sight. Sunset tried to call out for her but it was too late. She couldn’t help but feel like it was better if she didn’t follow. Her thoughts were starting to twist and swim around in her head. She knew… well thought that what she was saying was right… but clearly Wallflower wasn’t ok with it… was she right? She shook her head. There was too much going through her head to make sense. Slowly she walked away from the now dispersing crowd, back towards her bike and pulled out her phone. She texted a simple message to Rarity, hoping she would be able to help her.

I think I messed up.
