Luna walked from her street to the park when she felt a rain
drop. She stopped and looked at the sky, the clouds her gray
and the wind blew slightly. The sun had disappeared behind the
clouds. Suddenly Luna felt a few more rain drops.
"This is just great," Luna thought.
She bolted into a run hoping to reach the ice cream shop before
it rained harder.
By the time she reached the shop, it was raining. Her coat
was damp and so was her hair. Luna could feel her wings heavy
with water. She folded her wings to her side hoping the water
would drip down to her coat. When she walked in she saw Blizzard
just sitting down. He looked wet as well. Luna walked up to the
counter and sat down next to him.
"Umm, Hi," Luna," hesitated to say, "I see
you got caught in the rain too."
Blizzard looked at her as water dripped from his mane, "Yes
I did."
"I was just going to meet Blueberry when it rained. Is he
here?" Luna asked.
"I didn't look around when I came in," Blizzard replied.
"Oh," Luna replied.
She sat for a while squeezing the water out of her hair as she
glanced at Blizzard every now and then.
"Ummm, do you mind if I ask you something?" Luna asked.
"Depends on what you want to know," Blizzard answered
as he squeezing the water out of his bangs and mane.
"Well, I can't help noticed your always alone.."
"I prefer it that way too," Blizzard quickly interrupted.
"Do you have any friends?" Luna asked.
"No," Blizzard flatly answered, "Why do I need
friends?"
His answer caught her off guard. Was he really serious?
"Everybody needs friends. It's not good for a pony to spend
all their time alone. You just seem so lonely," Luna answered.
"Lonely?" Blizzard muttered, he never thought of being
lonely or needing friends. It was something he never thought
of nor cared about.
Just then Blueberry ran into the shop looking soaked. Luna turned
and gasped. He was soaked to the skin.
"Blueberry!" Luna exclaimed. She got off the stool
and hurried over to him while Blizzard watched.
"I thought you might have came here instead of the lake
when it started to rain," Blueberry explained.
Blueberry turned and sat at the booths with Luna. A pony walked
up to them and took their orders.
"I'll take hot chocolate," Blueberry told her.
"The same," Luna added.
The pony nodded and left their table.
"My I help you?" a pony asked.
Blizzard turned and saw a pony behind the counter, "Umm,
yes. just give me a milkshake."
the pony seemed a bit surprised, she noticed how wet he was and
he looked cold, "are you sure you don't want something to
warm you up?"
"A milkshake will do me just fine."
"Ok." the pony replied, she turned and fixed his shake
then handed it to him. As he sat and stared at Luna, he noticed
her long purple hair that matched her eyes. As he looked over
Luna and watching, his shake began to melt. Blizzard couldn't
help but feel a slightly mad at Blueberry although he didn't
know why he would be mad at him.
"Excuse me but aren't you going to drink your shake?"
the pony asked.
Blizzard turned and saw the shake was a bit watery. Blizzard
took his shake and turned from the counter to watch Luna. There
was something about her that he found hard to take his eye off
of her. Blizzard blew slightly on his shake to make it colder
and less watery. He was so fixated on Luna and Blueberry that
he didn't noticed his shake turning to ice.
Blizzard quickly stopped and looked at his shake.
"That's great," Blizzard thought, "What is wrong
with me?" He turned and sat his icy shake on the counter,
"There's nothing interesting about her. Nothing at all."
The pony walked by and saw his shake was covered in ice.
"What..happened?" she asked.
"It got cold," Blizzard stood up and left the counter.
He glanced at Luna as he walked by heading to the door. He poked
his head outside and saw that no one was on the sidewalk or street.
He quickly dashed out turning left and into an alley then he
quickly turned into a cluster of snowflakes blowing across the
park.
Luna smiled and looked outside. Then something odd caught her
eye. She blinked a few times to make sure she wasn't just seeing
things.
"What is it?" Blueberry asked noticing her staring
out the window.
"I..I just thought I saw...Snow flake."
"Snowflakes?" Blueberry asked, "It's not even
possible for it to snow. It's too warm out," Blueberry pointed
out.
"Yeah, your right," Luna replied smiling.
She spent the day at the shop till the rain had slowed down,
then she hurried home. |
