Super Nova

  Nova locked the door from Roseluck's room, making his way across the building to Derpy's room, swiftly avoiding the other people in the corridors. When he made it, he knocked on the door three times. "Derpy? You in there? What was so important?" He asked.

  He heard a giggle from inside the room. "Just come in, Muffin!"

  "...I have a bad feeling about this..." Nova hesitantly turned the doorknob and pushed, the door swinging open.

  Derpy put something behind her back. "Ohhh Muffin, I made you a present! I spend A LOT of time on it, so ummm," Derpy shuffled awkwardly, "I hope you like it!" He then held out something.

   "That... Looks um... Amazing..." Nova said, staring at the muffin with gumdrops for eyes and a small piece of licorice for a mouth, with whipped cream set into a ponytail at the back of the muffin.

  "Do you like it? It's you... As a muffin... You look yummy."

  Nova rubbed the back of his head. "I love it! But you know, you didn't have to waste your time making-"

  He was interrupted by the naive little girl before him. "Nooo! Don't be so modest! I made it for you because I love you! And don't even say you didn't make something for me because you don't love me, because I know you do!"

  A faint blush spread across his face as he lowered his head so that his shoulders were ear height. "D-Derpy..."

  "Shut up and eat this muffin!" She shoved the muffin in his face so that Nova was face to face with it

  Reluctantly, Nova took the muffin and took a bite. "You know, if you think about it, you're eating yourself."

...I just lost my appetite.. Nova took another bite of the muffin, slowly devouring it until it was erased from existence.

  Nova then noticed trembling and redness on Derpy's pinky. "Derpy... Your pinky finger..."

  "Oh?" Derpy quickly put her pinky behind her back. "Oh, it's nothing!"

  "No, let me see it."

  "But-"

  "Derpy..." Derpy sighed, holding out her right hand to Nova as he took it. "It's really red.. Did you burn yourself?"

  Derpy bit her lip, nodding. "While I was making you the muffin, when I was taking the pan out, my finger got caught in the grate. I could've let the pan go, or else the muffin would be squashed, so I just had to try to figure out a way to get it out..."

  Nova's eyes widened. "So you basically held your finger against a metal object that was over 100 degrees?"

  "...Yes..."

  Nova sighed, standing up straight. "Run your finger under some cold water, okay?" Derpy nodded, heading over to the sink and twisting the handle for the cold water, putting her finger under the stream.

  "Gyah!" Derpy cringed at the pain, but later found the water soothing.

  "It wasn't really worth it burning yourself so badly just so you could make me a muffin. You could've gotten seriously hurt." Nova reminded her with a tone of concern.

  Derpy smiled. "I know that! But I wanted to make you happy! It's a wife's job to please her husband!"

  Nova furrowed his brow. "So... You're my wife now?" Derpy nodded.

  "Yup! And all the other girls are our kids!"

  Nova slouched. "You DO realize you're the youngest in the SCHOOL, right?"

  Derpy twirled around on her heel, her skirt twirling along with her. "That doesn't make a difference, silly Muffin!"

  "...Okay then.." Nova walked over to a side table, raising an eyebrow. He picked up a thick, brown book with the title: "Algebraic Equations". Nova smiled a bit. "Heh. I didn't expect you to be into this kind of stuff, Derpy."

  "What?" Derpy paused her twirling, looking at the book, her face turning tomato red. "D-Don't touch that!" She snatched the textbook from Nova, glaring at him. "Didn't your mom teach you not to touch other people's things!?"

  "Well, my mom, Firefly, was pretty much only a mom to Rainbow Dash. My dad, Blue Thunder, was mostly centered towards me," Nova laughed nervously, "I guess they just each had their favorite! Although, I never inherited the rainbow hair thing.."

  "Well, that doesn't matter!" Derpy hugged the book. "Don't touch my stuff!"

  "... Why is it labeled 'Ditzy Doo'?" Nova asked curiously.

  Derpy once again blushed, looking quite furious. "I-It's just a nickname! Stop being so damn nosy!"

  Nova held his hands up in defense, never had hearing Derpy swear before. "Okay, okay! I was just curious..." He said, shuffling awkwardly.

  Derpy was breathing heavily. "Sorry, alright? I lose my temper easily... Just... Just don't touch my stuff without asking, okay? And don't get the idea that I don't love you just because I snapped like that, because I'll always love you. There's no escaping, Muffin!" Derpy said, laughing.

  Nova shuddered, imagining what would happen if him and Derpy EVER got married. There would be madness, and their children would be flying all over their house, breaking glass and hurting themselves.

  He turned around, noticing a picture in the corner of his eye. The picture was of Derpy and a brown haired guy in front of an old police box, Derpy wearing glasses. "Hey, Derpy, who's that guy in that picture?"

  "DIDN'T I SAY STOP TOUCHING MY STUFF!?"

  "I-I wasn't touching it, though!"

  Derpy sighed, looking at the picture and smiling a bit. "Just an old friend. I never really found out his name, and everyone just called him The Doctor. He had this weird theory that he came from a parallel dimension inhabited by talking horses. But he wasn't a 'pony'... Well, he looked like one but-" Derpy waved her hand, "never mind, I'm boring you."

  "Oh...So, where is he now?" Nova asked, frowning.

  Derpy looked down. "I dunno. When I woke up one day, I couldn't find him... He probably went back to his own world..."

  "Hm, I see... I don't mean to tip you off again, but why are you wearing glasses?"

  Derpy's eye twitched as she forced herself to smile. "Because..."

  "...You know what, I'll just ignore that. So," Nova sat down on the grey bed that was pressed horizontally against the wall, "what do you wanna do?"

  The blonde haired girl in front of him giggled, smiling seductively. She bent over so that her face was inches away from Nova's, running his finger down his chest. "I have an idea..."

  Nova turned bright red, his eyes widening. That actually might not be that bad... WAIT. NOVA. STOP. SHE'S 11. BAD THOUGHTS. BAD THOUGHTS!!! "Umm. Sorry, but no... You're too young, and-" I don't want to make her depressed, so I can't say I don't think about in that way... "I'm saving myself for marriage."

  Derpy stood up straight, putting her hand on her hip. "You're still a virgin? Well, that's surprising! I would figure someone like you would have girls all over you by now!"

  Nova muttered: "I already do, six of 'em..." "Well, I'm not exactly the lover boy type. I'm more of a shy guy. You know, that one guy who stays secluded in his own little corner with nobody to talk to? That's me," the silver haired boy said.

  "Seriously? You have six sexy girls to talk to whenever you want! You should consider yourself lucky. Plus, we're ALWAYS trying to make a move on you, and you're just clueless."

  "Oh no, I have PLENTY of clues to follow."

  "Then why don't you ever take advantage of the situation?"

  Nova let out a deep breath. "Well, first off, you're too young. Second, I, unlike most other men in the world, respect women and see them as more than just self automated cooking appliances, vacuums, and sex toys. I see them as strong human beings who don't get enough credit. For example, if a gamer girl, like Princess Luna, is on a game, all the other players who are guys tell them to get back in the kitchen or something. But, a lot of them also has their flaws. Such as wanted equal rights, but get upset when men don't pull out the chair, pay for dinner, or tell them they look nice. I find it quite puzzling, and-"

  "Oh come on, you're acting like a feminist. While everything you just said is true, women don't wanna be treated like guys, or else that would be weird. So next time one of us try to make a move on you, don't be a wimp. Say something sexy. We like it," Derpy said, smirking.

  Nova then laughed awkwardly, not sure what to say. "Well... Okay then.."

  "Gah... This hurts way too much.." The same figure knocked on the door, having the pink haired girl open it.

  Fluttershy put both hands over her mouth, gasping. "Oh my goodness! It's you again! Are you alright?" The figure nodded, smiling.

  "Hey, Flutters. I cut myself on accident, and it's pretty deep. Can you do anything to help?" Fluttershy nodded as the figure entered the room, shutting the door.

  When Fluttershy was done tending to the wound, the two began to have a conversation. "You know, we've known each other for over a month now. Don't you think it's time I knew your name?"

  The figure shook his head. "Nah. Like I said, just call me any river you like. Amazon, Memuru, Wheaton, Loire, any river you can think of, m'kay?" Fluttershy nodded.

  "Alright then..."

  The figure nudged her with his elbow. "You know, the first time I showed up with a knife in my back, you seemed pretty shy but also concerned. Now, it's like we've known each other for years."

  Fluttershy half smiled. "Yeah... You know, you've really got to start telling me how you get these injuries. I'm not one for violence, but I can get Rainbow Dash-"

  "No! Please, not Rainbow Dash. I already told you why she'll probably kill me when she sees me, right? So... Please.."

  "Oh, okay... Just.. Please, be more careful with whatever you're always doing, okay?"

  The figure let out a slight laugh. "Sorry, Flutters. That's not an option in my book."
