Chapter 7: I Go On My First Date
Previous ChapterNext ChapterCh. 7 I go on my first date
After my talk with Cheerilee and getting BlueBlood home, a month had passed and winter had settled in. I was about to head out when I yelled, “BlueBlood, I’ll be back!” I said, and got my double layer coat on so I wouldn’t freeze.
I walked outside and I felt like the temperature was below freezing, and it was. I got in my truck and slammed the door shut. “Damn its cold out there! I feel like my mane was going to freeze!” I said, and started my truck. Since it was cold outside, my truck was slow to start.
When it finally started, I drove to where Ms. Cheerilee lived. I quickly got out of my truck, ran to the door and knocked. “Ms. Cheerilee, can I come in?” I asked. I had to yell over the sound of the wind.
I waited for about 15 minutes and nothing happened. I waited another 20 minutes in the freezing wind, and still nothing happened. I knocked on her door again. “I’ll wait 5 more minutes. If she doesn’t answer by then, I am going home.” I said to myself. I was about to leave when I decided to knock on her door one more time. I sneezed while I was waiting for her to open the door. I was freezing my ass off, so to speak.
“Oh just one minute” Cheerilee shouted
“Ok!” I shouted back, then waited for her to open the door. Every moment that I waited, it got colder. I was waiting for so long, the cold air finally got through my coat and sweatpants. I was cold, my nose was running and I felt like shit in general. I was waiting for Cheerilee to open her door so I could get inside and talk to her. “Come on, Cheerilee. Hurry up! I’m freezing my ass off out here!” I said to myself. I felt my mane starting to freeze a bit. I knocked again, I was stuttering a bit since I was cold. “C-Cheerilee? C-could you p-please hurry up? I-I’m freezing!” I let out a loud sneeze to punctuate my sentence.
“I said you could come in silly didn’t you hear me?” She shouted to me
I walked inside, and closed the door. “Sorry. I couldn’t hear you over the wind.” I said
“Oh its fine i have some coffee in the kitchen go ahead and grab some if you want” Cheerilee said with a smile
“Thanks!” I said, and quickly got a mugful of piping hot coffee and drank some of it. “Thanks again.” I said, and took off my frozen coat
“Is it really that cold out?”
“Pretty much.” I said “Anyway, I wanted to ask if I could take you on a date sometime.” I said.
“Hmmm i think yes” Cheerilee stated
“Thanks Cheerilee.” I said, and finished my coffee. This was great news for me. I really hadn’t been into dating much, but I had a hunch that this could work.
I was on my way to pick up Cheerilee when it started snowing out. I found her house and knocked on the door. I had my coat on over my clean clothes so they wouldn’t get covered in snow.
“So Steel what is it like living with BlueBlood?” Asked Cheerilee
“its good. He can be a bit lazy at times, but he’s good mannered.” I said
“Oh believe me I know he can be lazy” Giggles Cheerilee
I chuckled. “Ready for our date tonight?” I asked.
“About as ready as i will ever be”
I smiled. I opened the door of my truck and let her get in first. After she was buckled into the passenger seat, I got in the driver’s seat and started it with a roar of the engine.
“Oh my goodness that is wow”
I chuckled. “where I came from, they didn’t call this a big rig for nothing! They also didn’t give it a 600 Horsepower engine for nothing!” I wondered if I shouldn’t have said that.
“It is something i will say that” Cheerilee said
I chuckled and drove us to the nearest restaurant in Canterlot. I figured I would treat Cheerilee to a very nice dinner. “we’re here!” I said, and turned off the truck. I got out then ran around to the passenger side to let Cheerilee out. “Ready, Cheerilee?” I asked, clearly ready for the night ahead.
“Ah yes i am ready” Cheerilee chirped
I smiled and closed the door after she got out of the cab. We ran inside the restaurant since it was cold out.
“Oh my fancy isn’t it”
“Yeah it is.” I said as she took her seat which i pulled out like a gentlecolt when i took my seat as we sat there i got a smile “Would you like some wine?”
“Yes that would be very nice” Cheerilee said smiling right at me as we waited on our food

We had finished our dinner as i drove her home we started talking about Blue Blood laughing at some of the things that colt had done in the past all i know is there was a saying back on earth Like Father,Like Son and boy was it true
I dropped Cheerilee off at her house and drove home after a great dinner and in my opinion, a successful date. As I was driving, I saw a flash of black lightning and Luna appeared in the cab. “Hey mom. How are ya?” I asked, not taking my eyes off the snow covered road.
“I am well and you?” Luna asked
“I am good. I went on my first date.” I said, happy with myself and happy about how the date went.
“Well that is good i wanted to let you know BlueBlood was no trouble and is in bed right now” Luna said making my jaw drop she had left him home on his own
“I hope he didn’t break anything!” I said, and floored the accelerator
“Oh no he did not he is fast asleep in his bed” Luna added with a small smirk
We arrived at my house and I am sure ponyville could hear the sound of rubber skidding on cobblestone. I ran inside and up to his room where he was, to my surprise, asleep. I also noticed something different about him. I looked closer and noticed his mane was wavy. I also noticed wings growing on his sides.
I closed the door to his room and went downstairs. I noticed Luna there and decided to ask her something. “Mom, am I a pegacorn, or a full blown Alicorn?” I asked, hoping to get this off my chest.
Welp everypony this is the chappie is different that is for sure but i want to clear this up BlueBlood is NOT an alicorn he is a pegacorn the difference is a pegacorn has a normal lifespan
