Teaching Fluttershy

Chapter 8: Winner!

Graduation was just around the corner and I was busy finishing up all my pending work, to make it worst the store was constantly busy, I started to look for a different job at least something that would pay more then my current one, I’ve even started to look for a place to rent something small but that would work fine for the both of us, I have around five thousand dollars saved up without counting interests.

“How do you feel?”

“Nervous.” I replied, it was finally the big day, the day I graduated high school as a electronics technician.
“I didn't think I mange to finish all my work in time but I did.” I said chuckling a bit, it was great that my family could be here and even better that Fluttershy too could come, it was at night and that way she could conviniantly hide without having to worry about being discovered.

“Well you did, now you better go find your place, we'll go sit were we can easily see you.” My mom said before hugging me.
“Oh you kids grow up so fast, it feels as if just yesterday I was picking you up from kindergarten, now you're graduating from high school and you're moving out” She said shedding a tear of joy.

“Don't worry mom I'll always be your little boy, I’m glad that you've always supported me through out this years and even more this last year, you know with the whole Fluttershy thing and stuff.” I thanked her, she and dad had always been there for me and now I’m heading off to collage.

The ceremony went by well, I almost fainted when I went to get my paper but other then that the night went by excellent, my family threw me a little party, and that's when my sister met Fluttershy, she was a bit freaked out actually a bit more than my parents or my brother were when they saw her but she promised to keep her a secret as well.

“Oh thank goodness it's Saturday.” I said as I finished taking a bath, me and Fluttershy were going to go watch a movie later on.
“Hey Fluttershy!” I called out from the bathroom.

“Yes Peter?” She answered, peeking her head from our room's door, I could tell from her messy mane that she was probably taking a nap.

“Can you pass me some pants from the closet please, I forgot to grab them when I got up.” I asked her, I tend to change in the bathroom rather then my bedroom now, for obvious reasons.

“Here you go.” Fluttershy walked out of the room with the pants laying on her back.

“Thanks, I’ll be out in a minute.” I said, grabbing the pants.

“No problem, I’m going to take a quick nap, I’m still rather tired from last night.” She said yawning and going back to the room.
After I was done dressing I decided to go make myself a sandwich, I didn't have breakfast and I was somewhat hungry.
“Let's see, where did she put the nutella?” I decided to go for a nutella and jelly sandwich.
I was about to grab the jelly when somebody knocked on the front door.
“Now who could that be?” I thought as I opened the door.

“Good after noon! Are you Peter Pastrana?” There was a lady dressed fancy holding a microphone and a camera guy apparently recording.

“Um... Yes that would be me.” I said dumfounded about what was going on.

“Well we're from GreenStripe bank and we are here to congratulate you for winning a astonishing amount of one million dollars.” She said and as if on queue another lady walked up with a big check that had written my name and the amount.

“Huh? Wha- How th-” I couldn't speak out any coherent sentences, was this a dream, a joke or real.

“How do you feel? Happy? Surprised.” Said the lady holding the microphone laughing a bit.

“Happy...” I managed to finally speak out, holy crap this was real!

“Well here, grab the check it's yours after all.” She said again signaling me to grab the check which I did right away.
After that they gave me a quick interview, most likely yo appear later on the news, I guess that was really lucky, now instead of renting I can actually buy a house and live decently for a few years and pay for my collage, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to work.

After a few months of looking I've narrowed down house options to 3 houses, each with different benefits, one had three rooms, two bathrooms, and a pool, along with the kitchen, living room and basement, it was at a decent price but I wanted a bigger backyard.
The others were all pretty much the same, they had there benefits but also there flaws, in the mean time I had rented a house near my new job, the other thing I was missing was a car, I managed to get a job as a waiter in a restaurant near the house so I could easily walk to it.
It paid better than my old one, here I got 7 dollars an hour plus all the tips, so it was more than enough for now especially having those one million in the bank.
I guess I could say I was truly living my life, collage started until august, so I had time to save up a bit for supplies and other school related stuff.

As for Fluttershy, well she had her own room now so I could finally have a big bed just for myself, I decided to gift her a dog as a late birthday gift, she fell in love with that fella.

My shift was just over but I decided to stay a bit longer to talk to the other waiters, they were rather funny and like me also shared love for a certain show.

“Did you guys catch yesterday's episode? Dude Pinkie was real funny in that one.” Said Alex sitting in one of the chairs of a table I was cleaning, Lance was sitting on the other side.

“I've got to say, I liked the metal gear references, those were awesome and I liked how Twilight looked with the eye patch.” Lance added, drinking some soda out of his glass.

“Yeah I liked that too, but I wasn't able to find Derpy in that episode.” I said finishing cleaning the table, they had smeared a lot of dessert all over the table, most likely it being the kids the couple had with them.
“Well i'm done for tonight, see you tomorrow guys.” I said wiping some sweat off my face, it had been a rather busy night with a lot of customers and a lot of tips.

“Okay then, see ya Peter.”'

“Yeah later bro!” They both gave me a goodbye before exiting the place, at the moment my phone started to vibrate, I took it out of my pocket to see who it could be. To my surprise it was from my house.

“Hello?” I said answering quickly.

“Hi Peter, it's me Fluttershy, are you almost here?” She asked, that was strange she sounded a bit agitated.

“I barely finished my shift, why what happened?” I asked starting to worry a bit.

“We have some visitors.” She said in a rather happy tone.

"Visitors?"
