Every Dark Night Turns Into Day

“Are you sure Sunset won’t murder us?” I asked cautiously as I carried an armful of flowers. Rose gave me a nod, barely able to see her behind her mountain of flowers.

“I mean, we’re doing something nice for Scootaloo, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. Lily is decorating Sweeties locker right now. I think Blossomforth is doing Sunsets locker like we asked,” Rose explained as we approached Scootaloo and Apple Blooms lockers.

“True. Surprisingly Sunset hasn’t talked to us yet,” I answered. “With how often we swap out the flowers on her locker.”

“Well maybe because we keep running away because we’re afraid of her killing us,” Rose muttered as she started covering the locker with flowers. “We don’t give her a chance to talk to us because we make ourselves scarce after school.”

“True what’s the point of trying to get her forgiveness if we never actually allow her a chance to tell us she does,” I mused.

“Precisely,” Rose nodded as we stepped back and admired our work. “Looks good.”

“Mhm. Hopefully Lily is having as much luck as we did,” I smirked slightly. “And the flowers covers up the rude vandalism of the other students.”

“Reminds me of Sunset’s locker after the fall formal,” Rose said. “And anon a miss.” We both sighed as I rubbed the back of my head as we heard foot steps behind us.

“Ooh! Pretty!” Sweetie Belle giggled as her and Apple Bloom stepped up next to us.

“Uh what is this?” Apple Bloom asked with a raised eyebrow. “Feel like ahm in a floral store.”

“It’s us apologizing,” I stepped forward and explained. The two girls stared at me and my sister.

“Uh for what?”

“Ya know for being jerks to you three for thinking you saying we were sleeping together,” Rose answered with a grin. “Do you like them?”

“Beautiful!” Sweetie Belle approached the flowers and sniffed one of my sisters roses. “I like roses.”

“Same,” Rose agreed readily as she stroked one. “They smell good.”

“Sunset says they taste good according to Scootaloo,” Apple Bloom commented casually as Rose stared in horror.

“Murderer!”

“Anyway, we good?” I asked hopefully. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle stared at each other before nodding with grins.

“Yeah,” they said in unison.

“Well that’s reassuring,” I muttered. “Thanks.”

“Do you two always finish each other’s sentences?” Sweetie questioned curiously.

“Someday,” I admitted.

“But not often! Typically it’s all three of us!” Rose chimed in eagerly. They stared at us in confusion before shrugging.

“We do that too,” Sweetie Belle agreed.

“Hey aren’t you supposed to be at your locker?” I asked suddenly after a few seconds of silence. Sweetie Belle nodded slightly before taking off down the hall.

“Well that’s resolved,” Rose said finally as we watched the young girl disappear around the corner. “See you around Apple Bloom. Have a good day.”

“Yall too. And ya can call me Bloom. Ah don’t mind.”

“Okay Bloom,” I said casually. “See ya around.”

“See ya,” she said as she opened her locker and started waving at us. We waved back before disappearing around the corner.

“That went well,” Rose commented.

“Mhm.”

I leaned against my locker and watched the crowd of students disappear into their respective classes.

“That was an awful fight,” Rose shuddered as Redheart started walking Captain Planet to the nurses office.

“Agreed. He started it though. Flash Sentry had every right to punch him. I just didn’t expect half the school get involved,” I said as a janitor started cleaning up the blood on the locker. Thankfully there wasn’t that much of it. He quickly got it all cleaned and walked away with his mop bucket and rags.

“Same here,” Rose agreed as someone tapped my shoulder. We both looked at a green girl with green hair, a striped shirt and blue pants.

“Uhm hi,” she whispered.

“Hey there!” Rose said warmly. “Wait who are you exactly?”

“Wallflower. Wallflower Blush. I was uh wondering if Lily was here,” Wallflower said hesitantly. Rose and I made eye contact and shrugged.

“No she’s not. Why?” I asked curiously.

“Good. So she isn’t here for this,” Wallflower admitted and we nervously stepped back as her eyes widened. “No not like that! She’s just super, super intimidating and yeah.”

“Ah okay. She can be at times,” I chuckled. “I’m Daisy and that’s Rose.”

“I know who you are,” Wallflower answered. We stood in silence before Rose nervously laughed.

“So what can we do for you? Want to order some flowers or uh something?” Rose asked and folded her arms.

“No I uh wanted to ask you something and hopefully be friends but this conversation isn’t going how I wanted,” Wallflower answered. “I’m messing up so bad and that’s awful. I can’t screw up.”

“It’s okay!” Rose grinned at her. “I make mistakes often. Like the time I actually over watered a cactus. Or the time Daisy tripped over her dress and fell down the stairs.”

“I thought we agreed never to talk about that again,” I grumbled before laughing a little. It was funny now but awful at the time. “So what did you want to ask us and how exactly do you know us?”

“I’ve been watching you three for a bit in an attempt to figure out how to approach you all. I don’t really like public speaking and this has been an awkward hello so how about we restart?” Wallflower offered as she reached into her bag.

“How so?” Rose asked as Wallflower pulled out a rock. “Ooh pretty!”

“Nice rock,” I commented nervously as it started to glow.

“W-what are you doing?” Rose demanded nervously as I placed an arm in front of my sister protectively as Wallflower pointed it at us.

“Ow!” I grunted in pain as a bright light hit us both.

“Arrgh!” Rose cried out as we hit our knees and we looked around in confusion as running feet came up.

“I’ve been looking everywhere for you two!” Lily exclaimed. “We’re late for class. Are you two are right? Did something happen?” Me and Rose looked at each other in confusion.

“I don’t remember?” I answered as Lily helped us.

“Me neither,” Rose agreed. Lily rolled her eyes and started yanking on our hands.

“Well we can sort it out later! Let’s go!”

Rolling my eyes, me and Rose ran down the hallway after our sister.
