Chapter I

I bit back a curse word and tossed my controller onto my bed as Trixie shot me a smug grin.

“I’m the best at video games, am I not?” Trixie asked as she paused the game we had been playing. I had never know Trixie was such an avid gamer like this.

“Yeah, you’re pretty damn good,” I admitted as I chugged a pop before wiping my mouth with the back of my hand. “I’ve never had as much competition before, not even with Applejack.”

“I still can’t believe Applejack of all people is really good at video games,” Trixie commented as she glanced at me. “I imagined it would be Rainbow Dash.”

“She’s really good too. They go to competitions together and play. Apparently Rainbow gave the Apple family their first console as a Christmas gift.”

“Very fascinating,” Trixie said dryly as she picked up her piece of pizza I had ordered and she dangled it in the air and opened her mouth, taking a large bite. “Mhmmmmm.”

I giggled as Trixie blushed and wiped the pizza sauce off her mouth with a napkin. The girl loved fast food way too much. I’d have to make her cooked meal one day.

“Remind me to cook you dinner one night,” I said as Trixie gave me a sultry look with a grin.

“Is that a date offer?” Trixie purred seductively as our lips quivered for a few seconds before we both burst out laughing.

“Oh my god!” I laughed as I wiped a tear out of my eye. “That was funny.”

“I do have that effect,” Trixie giggled as we both laid on our backs on my queen sized bed.

“W-wait,” I chuckled as I forced myself to quit laughing and gave Trixie the best bedroom eyes I could muster at the moment. “Oh yeah that’s a date. And afterwards, we can go to bed and take things to a whole new level. And after all, I’m on top of things. Wanna be one of em?”

“Oh of course,” Trixie grinned as she traced a finger up my forearm. “Roses are red, violets are blue, you be the six and I’ll be the nine.”

“With school, I just want an A. With you, I just want to F,” I shot back as Trixie chuckled.

“That was a good one Sunset. That’s a nice shirt. Can I try it on after we have sex?”

I burst out laughing and high fived Trixie. I didn’t expect her to be as vulgar as this and I’ll admit defeat. When I lose of course.

“Nice job. I admit defeat,” I snickered as Trixie sat up, wiping tears out of her eyes. “And yes, you can have my shirt after.”

“Excellent because I could totally that shit,” Trixie chuckled as she stretched.

“Hey can I ask a question?” I asked suddenly as Trixie picked up her light purple jacket.

“Yeah, go for it.”

“Why do you talk in third person around others and first person around me and Wallflower?” I grimaced at the last name as Trixie looked at me with a smile.

“Because I trust you. I was bullied in middle school before you crossed over and I developed speaking in third person as a comfort type of thing. I only speak normal around people I trust. It’s my adhd that causes me to keep speaking in third person. It’s a nervous tic I guess,” Trixie explained as she put her jacket on.

“I’m happy you trust me. And I trust you as well,” I said as I patted Trixie’s hand. “With my life. You were the only one there to believe me during the Memory Stone. Not even Derpy did because she was terrified of me. That hurt pretty bad too.”

Trixie hummed as she sat back down on my bed.

“Can I ask you a question now?” Trixie asked as I gave a thumbs up.

“Go for it,” I said as I picked up my own slice of pizza and opened my mouth.

“How do you feel about Wallflower? It’s been about two and half months afterwards Sunny.”

I chewed on my lower lips in thought as Trixie watched me intently. I’ve been honestly debating that myself. Sure, I said I would be her friend but well I’m not so sure. Out of all the threats I’ve faced, she was the one to target me directly. A large part of me is leaning to forgiveness similar to how my friends forgave me but a small dark part of me wants to make her suffer.

“I don’t know,” I admitted honestly after a moment. “I want to forgive her and I don’t at the same time. But it would be very hypocritical of me to deny her that given my past. And she did save you after I had completely forgot you were locked in the yearbook room. Sorry about that again by the way.”

“You’re forgiven. Again.”

I gave a low chuckle. I had been apologizing the entire time I’ve been Trixie’s friend. I’ve been trying to invest as much time as I could into knowing Trixie better. She was a really nice soul when you get to know her. She just hides it well under her ego that is admittedly not faked. I had used to hate it but now? I find it quite endearing.

“If you want my opinion, forgive her. I have and she took my memories too. Memories I’ll never get back,” Trixie commented as she made a fist before relaxing it. “And I don’t even remember that. I don’t remember if I was scared, angry, tried to fight back or just stayed still in fear or if I was in pain during so. But based on what you described when she took your memories, I think it hurt me too.”

“I’m sorry,” I said as I made eye contact again. “I never really thought about it from yours or any one else’s angles. I’ll figure a way to start talking to her again.”

“Good,” Trixie said as she glanced at my clock. “I gotta head on home. Thanks for putting up with me for a few hours.”

“Nothing to put up with. You’re my friend after all,” I commented as we both stood up and hugged. “Drive safe.”

“I’m the safest driver on the road. Love you best friend. Wink!” Trixie winked as I snickered. For some reason, she felt the need to say wink before doing so.

My phone vibrated on my night stand as I watched Trixie take the stairs from my loft two at a time. I waved as she opened the front door and she returned the gesture before stepping out and the door shut behind her with a thud.

I stepped to my phone and examined it with a slight frown.

“One missed call from Rainbow Dash,” I read aloud as I swiped the notification. “I’ll call her later after dishes. Don’t want my kitchen to be too messy after all.”

I cleaned up the mess Trixie and I had created, walking down the stairs to clean everything up.

I prefer everything to be clean around me. Not as bad as Rarity but close. My phone rang again as I scowled up stairs.

“I should probably text her,” I mused to myself as I glanced upstairs before looking back at the dishes. “But I’m here already so it makes more sense to do the dishes.”

With my mind set, I turned to the sink to get to work.

Author's Note

Gonna be in Sunset, Trixie, Wallflower, Roseluck and Rainbows povs.

Chapter II (Trixie)

I leaned against the statue as a orange Kawasaki Ninja stopped out front next to my blue motorcyle as the rider kicked down the kickstand and Sunset stepped off, taking her helmet off and shaking her hair around with a grin.

“Sunset!” I called out and waved as I pushed myself off the statue. “Over here!”

A few students walking up the steps glanced over at me and I internally wanted to tell them to look away. It always felt as if they were laughing at me. Hell, they laugh at my magic posters so it’s pretty damn high they are laughing at me too. I know I’m not the most liked person at Canterlot High.

“Heyo,” Sunset called back as she tucked her helmet under her arm as she approached. “Hey, can you hold my helmet?”

“Sure.”

I accepted her helmet as she tied her hair in a ponytail and draped it over her back.

“New look?” I asked as she took her helmet back.

“Yeah, wanted to try something new. We should probably hurry along and get inside. Have you had breakfast yet?”

“No. I was waiting for you to get here,” I admitted as Sunset frowned at me.

“I would have met you in the lunchroom. Come on, let’s go. This girl needs a pancake,” Sunset declared as we both started walking up the steps of our school.

“Wallflower might meet us there,” I said and avoided eye contact. “If you don’t mind. Trixie texted you about it this morning but you might have been asleep. Wallflower didn’t say much except maybe.”

“I’ll be nice but I still haven’t decided yet if I forgive her. It took the whole school almost five months forgive me,” Sunset waved around her as some students gave her sad looks. I had remembered half of them publicly said they hated her. After being friends with most of them, I’d imagine that hurt more than she admitted.

“Trixie knows,” I said and rubbed the back of my neck. “Trixie is sorry for being a bitch to you again.”

“You’re forgiven. Again.”

I gave a faint chuckle as we turned a corner to walk into the gym.

“Have you talked to your friends at all?” I asked curiously as I picked up a tray and moved down the line behind Blueberry Cake. “Didn’t you say in a text when I got home that Rainbow called you?”

“Oh fuck!” Sunset cursed and shuddered as Ms. Inkwell frowned at her. “I passed out after that text and completely forgot to call Dash back. No I haven’t talked since the Memory Stone incident. Been busy with you.”

“The what stone?” Blueberry asked as she picked up a muffin and gave us a confused look.

“The Stone that removed your memories. Made you think I was an evil bitch and all,” Sunset explained as Blueberry Cake looked away nervously. “Also made you think I was gonna fight Trixie.”

“Yeah I’m sorry about that by the way. Have no idea why I thought you were mean again.”

“Don’t be,” Sunset shrugged as she tossed me a muffin. “It was magic messing with you. You had no control over that. I had my memories erased too.”

“Because she tried to sacrifice herself for her friends,” I chimed in as she turned red and received an admiring look from Blueberry.

“Gee thanks,” Sunset smirked at me as we left the breakfast line as we both thanked Granny Smith. “Let’s grab a table. Uh, see you around Blueberry I guess.”

Neither of us knew her all that well but I didn’t entirely like her. She always seemed to dislike me and well, naturally I dislike those who don’t like me. More like I berate them afterwards for months.

We sat down at a table as I stabbed my sausages with a plastic fork. We both looked up as Wallflower quietly sat across from us with a single muffin and coffee.

“Hey,” Wallflower said hesitantly as her eyes flicked to Sunset and me. “Am I welcome here?”

We both looked at each other before Sunset nodded with a huff, spearing some eggs and putting her spork in her mouth.

“Morning,” I said as I forced a smile on my face. I had originally planned on this going way better than it currently was. “How are you?”

“Eh. You?”

“Trixie is okay,” I answered as I started eating and I glanced at a blue girl waving in our direction and I nudged Sunset. “Your friends are looking over.”

“First off, don’t speak with your mouth full. That’s gross as hell Trixie,” Sunset said with as disgusted expression and Wallflower laughed softly into a fist. She looked over at a upset looking Rainbow as the girl waved again as Fluttershy, Pinkie, Rarity, Applejack and Twilight copied her slowly as Pinkie gestured her over.

“Are you gonna go over there?” I asked curiously as Sunset shook her head and I watched Pinkie’s face fall.

“I’m eating and talking. I see them in class, I’ll talk to them then. It’d be rude to just up and leave you girls without saying anything,” Sunset answered as she unwrapped her muffin and took a bite.

“Trixie doesn’t know about that,” I commented as Rainbow shot me a look and I immediately glared back as Rarity snapped something at Rainbow to make her nod sheepishly. “They seem pretty sad and well, angry at Trixie. They always did hate Trixie.”

“I don’t think they hate you. Fuck those who do,” Sunset snapped as Wallflower recoiled and stared at her breakfast. “Uh sorry. Anyway, I’ll talk to them in class. I have classes with all of em so no biggie. I think they can wait about an hour and a half.”

“Uh huh,” I said as Wallflower continued quietly eating and Sunset toyed with her geode. “Well Trixie will see you in second hour. Wallflower, wanna go to the bathroom with Trixie?”

“Why?”

“Uh all the girls hang out in the bathroom. Besides, Trixie has to wash her hands. See you around Sunny.”

“Bye.”

“Uh okay?”

Wallflower finished her breakfast and followed me quietly as I caught a dirty look from Rainbow and sighed as Sunset kept eating.

I hope she was right they didn’t hate me.
