“So,” Derpy grinned at me as we sat at a table drinking milkshakes. “Heard you and Lyra hit it off this week after school friday.” Derpy wore a smug grin.

“You could say that,” I admitted with a blush. “It was certainly an eye opening experience.” That was an understatement of the century. For my first kiss, it was certainly memorable.

“Oh I bet. She put the Lyra charm on you I bet,” Derpy chuckled.

“Maybe she did,” I blushed and hid my face a bit.

“Don’t be embarrassed. It’s perfectly normal for you to be nervous about liking her,” Derpy commented. “Next thing you know, you’ll be making a love potion and all that.”

“Love potions? I don’t even know if I like her yet,” I admitted. Derpy raised an eye as she raised the straw to her mouth.

“Let’s see. She kissed you, you didn’t push her away or get mad. You’ve been blushing around her anytime she flirts with you or compliments you. You’ve been having a weird feeling in your chest and stomach everytime she’s around and you like being around. Sure sounds like you have a crush to me Bonnie,” Derpy sipped her shake.

“She’s been flirting with me?” I asked. Derpy sighed and gave me a pointed.

“You really haven’t been picking up on her signs have you? What, you think she just kisses every girl she meets?”

“Uhm no?” I offered.

“Okay. I love you but you’re really oblivious. I’ll give you a hint, she likes you obviously. I shouldn’t tell you this part but she talks about you all the time. She thinks you’re one of the cutest person she’s met.” My face once again turned bright red.

“S-she really thinks that?” I asked as I played with a strand of my hair. I didn’t really pay attention to people around me much. Except Lyra or Derpy or Vinyl of course.

“God help me.”

“Sorry. I uh think you’re right. I think I do like her.” Derpy gave a look.

“You think? It’s kinda obvious. Me and Vinyl have been trying to get you two together since the biting comment at lunch that one day. Lyra has a very interesting way of flirting to say the least.”

“Oh. I don’t know how to flirt really. People never really liked me this way before,” I admitted. Derpy gave a sigh.

“Same. People don’t really like me in general. I’m kinda meant to be alone.” I gave her a concerned look.

“What do you mean?” I asked.

“I mean I get called a retard a lot because of my eye. So I’m always going to be single. But it’s okay because I have friends so it balances out,” Derpy admitted. I felt kinda angry at that. Derpy was super nice.

“Hey,” I reached across the table and lifted Derpy’s chin up gently so we made eye contact and I stared into her giant golden orbs. “There’s nothing at all wrong with you. You’re perfect how you are. We all have our flaws. You don’t even let yours bother you. You’re the most happy, easy going person I know. You will find someone.”

“Thanks Bon Bon,” Derpy leaned across the table and our milkshakes tipped over onto our hamburgers and fries. We both looked at each and laughed.

“Oops.”


I leaned against the piano patiently. School had ended thirty minutes ago and I was waiting for Lyra so we could talk. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath to calm my nerves. The door opened and Lyra stepped inside wearing a yellow skirt to my shock along with her white shoes. She and Vinyl both had agreed that the skirt trend that Canterlot High was going through was lame and that they wouldn’t wear one.

“Thought you said you wouldn’t wear a skirt,” I commented.

“That was before we realized how expressive we could be with them. The yellow means I’m in a good mood,” Lyra explained as she leaned against the piano next to me and I tried to ignore her thigh pressing against mine. “What ya wanna talk about?”

“So uhm remember last week when you kissed me and everything?” I asked quietly. Lyra let out a chuckle.

“How could I forget?”

“So uh what do you feel about me?” Lyra tilted her head before smirking.

“You’re smart, funny, cute. Oh and adorable. You have a good personality,” Lyra answered. Good response. That’s what I was hoping for.

“So you like me then is what you’re saying.” Lyra blushed as she looked away.

“Yes. But if you don’t like me back, that’s perfectly okay-” I placed a finger on Lyra’s lips and she stared at me with a raised eyebrow.

“I do like you. You’re special in a way that I don’t quite understand yet. I’ve never dated anyone before so I don’t understand half of these weird feelings. You’re funny and nice,” I admitted sheepishly. Lyra pushed my finger off her mouth and gave me a grin.

“So what are you saying exactly?” Lyra asked.

“Uhm would you want to you know?” My eyes flicked around nervously.

“Go out?” Lyra suggested.

“Yes that.” Lyra propped a finger against her chin in thought before leaning close and kissing me. I sighed contently as I felt her tongue push against my lips and I slightly parted them, feeling her tongue push into my mouth. I didn’t really know what to do because the only time I’ve been kissed was when Lyra did so quickly after the karaoke bar. I pressed my tongue against Lyra’s and she rubbed my back with a hand while her other played with my curly hair. Lyra’s tongue swirled around mine and the door opened. Our eyes widened as we hastily separated.

“Sorry guys,” Derpy turned bright red. “We uh forgot our bags.” Vinyl stuck her head in and quickly nodded her agreement with a grin before walking inside. Derpy didn’t have music class so why would she forget her bag?

“You don’t have music class Derpy,” Lyra pointed out. Derpy and Vinyl looked at each other cautiously.

“They know we were spying on them!” Vinyl exclaimed. “Every girl for herself!” She pushed past Derpy and ran out the door. Her eyes widened as she glanced at us.

“Don’t leave me behind! Gotta go! Got uh muffins to bake!” Derpy gave a nervous chuckle as she quickly followed Vinyl. Me and Lyra looked at each before laughing.

“The answer is yes by the way,” Lyra spoke up.

“I kinda figured that by the kiss.” Lyra gave me a mischievous smirk.

“Speaking of kissing, wanna go again?” I quickly nodded. I may not be good at kissing right now but I have the feeling I’m going to become an expert soon enough. Lyra nodded as she placed a hand on my waist.

“Good. Because I wanted to as well.”


Author's Note

Our two favorite background characters are finally together. Of course, had to have a nice moment between Derpy and Bon Bon. I'm super biased to these three lmao. I literally hate when people use Lyra or Bon Bon as abusive people to others, especially Sunset lol. Enjoy!

Random fact: researchers believe Amelia Earhart was ripped apart by coconut crabs and eaten. They found a fractured skeleton on an island. Coconut crabs are big as fuck. They are nearly three feet and can weigh over eight pounds. They can break open coconuts with their claws alone and climb trees. They've been seen killing birds, tearing live pigs apart and even the corpses of their own species. Their pincher has enough force to be compared to a lion biting a human.
