Applesauce ch. 1
Macintosh walked by his window only to see Breaburn playing tag with Applebloom, he though about joining, but even the thought made him nervous, he could still feel the butterflies. Macintosh sat on his bed cursing his cowardly behavior.
"Why am I so scared? it's really nothing to be scared of…"
He looked out of the window and remembered why he was scared, Breaburn was staring at him with a smile, while waving his hands which obviously meant to come outside. Macintosh slowly walked down the stairs making sure to grab a scarf and a coat, as it was cold outside.
"Hey Macintosh! are you afraid of a little cold weather?" Breaburns voice cut through the sound of the few birds that were out. Macintosh blushed, he didn't know what to say, but it had to be perfect.
"No, Breaburn, I'm actually afraid of the snow monster."
He looked at Applebloom who now seemed mortified. She clung onto Breaburn's leg.
"Sn- snow monster?! Breaburn I regret coming outside."
Macintosh laughed and so did Breaburn, he always loved Breaburns laugh.
"Now now Applebloom i'm sure Macintosh is just kidding… Or maybe not!"
Breaburn winked at Macintosh, he knew that Breaburn wanted him to play along, but Macintosh took that wink in the way he always wished it would be.
"Yeah Applebloom, I think the monster is around… I hear him…"
Breaburn made a low noise behind her back, and upon hearing the noise, Applebloom screamed and ran inside. Macintosh then gave Breaburn a high-hoof.
"Good acting Brea!"
"Same to you, and great job starting that up."
They laughed a while and eventually they went inside because Applejack had made hot chocolate. Macintosh couldn't believe it, he went through a whole conversation with Breaburn with stuttering! This was huge for him, he regretfully remembered the day he got so nervous around Breaburn that he threw up and passed out, he never wanted to relive that experience. He looked at Breaburn who was just inches away sipping on his drink, and Macintosh started feeling the butterflies again.
"So uhhh…. Breaburn… do you maybe wanna huh… go to the forest with me tonight…?"
"Yeah of course Macintosh! anything for my favorite cousin!"
Macintosh felt nauseous, yet excited at the same time, this was the time he would spend bonding with Breaburn, he just knew that they were going to have fun, and maybe even get close to each other.
