chapter 2: how to express it

"oh. hey pinkie." twilight said. "what's doing?" pinkie said in her cheery voice.

"trying to make myself feel useful." she sighed.

pinkie sighed, knowing this part of twilight. "twilight, you don't need to be." pinkie said hugging her. "all your friends are there for you."

twilight let out a happy sigh. she looked up to find that percy was also there.

"hey." twilight said in a quiet voice. "hi twilight. do you need anypony else to comfort you? thomas said you didn't look too good when he passed by here. he looked very worried about you." percy informed her. "thomas saw me? and was worried?" twilight said. now walking away from pinkie enthusiastically.

"twilight, do you still have a crush on him?' pinkie pie said playfully. twilight blushed. "yeah."

"wait. you have a crush on my best friend?" percy asked her. twilight nodded, feeling the blush on her cheeks turn warm. 'well.." percy said.

silence followed.

pinkie broke the silence. "how's your magic sustaining going twilight? rarity said she felt a little sick this morning and that she felt like she was fading away." "well, not as good as it was." twilight replied.

cince this wasn't equestria, the magic of friendship wasn't as abundant, so she has to spread it. if she don't they would fade away forever. then, thomas came behind percy.

"are you ok twily?" he asked, with a worried expression on his face. "yeah. just a little stressed." thomas doesn't like when one of his friends were stressed. especially if that friend is his crush. "you don't need to be. come take a ride in my cab." "ok." twilight breathed.

as thomas puffed down the branch line, he wondered how twilight could handle her duties and magic. "thomas?" twilight asked. "yeah?" he answered. "ever wonder if you were in a relationship?" thomas pondered. "no, but i have had crushes over the years."

"lady,emily,rosie, and ashima."

kinda think of it, he has never had been in real love before. until now.

"oh. i used to have a crush on a stallion named flash sentry, but that went away quickly after i didn't see him for a while."

twilight leaped out of thomas's cab and flew next to him. the sun was brightly shining, making thomas's blue paint sparkle. she stared at it.

her cheeks turned red, thinking of what it would be like to kiss him... She was snapped out of her daydreaming when she looked to see thomas staring at her. he was red in the cheeks as well.

"thomas? how would you express your love for someone?" "well," he said, "i would first tell them how much they care to me. then, i would get something special for them. and finally, i would tell my feelings to them straight and clear. or i would just go into shy mode the whole time." "good to know." twilight pondered.

i wonder what twilight was thinking? just gonna have to wait till the next chapter. write you later!
