Fluttershy woke up to a very angry voice. She peered outside to see four of her five friends at Discord's door, talking very angrily at him. She looked up to see Rainbow motioning at her to hide. Fluttershy went and hid under the bed and sure enough, her friends entered moments later.

"Girls I told you I don't know where Fluttershy is!" Discord exclaimed right behind them.

"Then why does the bed look slept in?" Twilight asked.

"She came here last night, crying and fell asleep. I put her in here and left. This morning when I woke up she was gone," Discord lied through his teeth, causing Fluttershy to cringe. Surely Applejack would pick up on it.

"Discord, ah don't know about that. Quit yer lyin and tell us where Fluttershy is!" yep, Applejack surely represented her element.

"Girls! Obviously this is Fluttershy, she'd be hiding instead of confronting us," Rarity pointed out.

"Yeah...what she said," Spike's voice piped up.

"Have any of you ever thought about Fluttershy's actual feelings?! She's been through enough as it is without everypony thinking Discord did something to her! Back off and leave her alone!" Rainbow cried out.

"Discord did do something to her otherwise she wouldn't have come here," Twilight said accusingly, "Did you hypnotize her?"

"Twilight! Why would I do that to Fluttershy? I love her-as a friend!" Fluttershy could hear his anger rising as Discord stuttered.

"And Fluttershy? Been through a lot? Highly seems likely! She's one of the most pure ponies I know!" Pinkie cut in.

"Why do you think she's so shy? She's been bullied most of her life and ponies like you guys are acting right now have shoved her in a dark place. Why do you think she loves animals so much?" Rainbow clunked down next to the bed.

"You girls are not helping anything by accusing me of doing something to Fluttershy. I did not sleep with her, nor did I hypnotize her, nor did I hurt her," Discord walked over to the bedroom door.

"Then explain why you were over at Fluttershy's so late?" Twilight glared, "And appeared to be coming from her room?"

Fluttershy had it. Her friends were accusing Discord of taking her purity, not that she had any to give.

"Enough!" surprisingly, she managed to yell loud enough that the bed flew up and off of her.

Four stunned ponies and one dragon greeted her. Rainbow and Discord immediately got in front of her as to protect her.

"Discord did not take my purity from me! We haven't been sleeping together, I already explained to Twilight why he was over and he slept in the guest bedroom, I'm not hypnotized or hurt by him. The ones who are hurting me are you four! Besides, there's nothing to take from me!" Fluttershy, tears in her eyes, flew out the window and away.

The other girls stood shocked and Rainbow started to go after her but Discord stopped her. After exchanging a glance and nodding, he left instead. Rainbow turned to her other friends and glared at them.

"You guys need to consider Fluttershy more. She's been through enough. And right now, with her feelings for Discord, you're making it impossible for her to finally have happiness after all the heartache she's been through. Try going to visit the graveyard sometime and look for the name Angel Wings. But that's all I can tell of her secret. The rest is if she wants to share. Now I'm leaving for Cloudsdale for a few days. I want you to have already apologized to the both of them by the time I get back," Rainbow flew off, leaving the others behind.

Following Rainbow's instructions they went to the graveyard and found the name Angel Wings. Sitting in silence they read the inscription on the tombstone.

"Rest in Peace Angel Wings

Though I only got to hold you for a little while,

You've known more love than anypony.

Mommy loves and misses you,

Fluttershy."

"I never knew...Fluttershy lost a baby," Rarity sniffed.

"None of us did," Twilight gently stroked the stone.

"This heartache is even more than losing parents, having to lose a child? Ah don't think ah'd make it," Applejack took off her hat and bowed her head.

"What have we done?" Pinkie felt her hair fall straight.

"And feelings for Discord? Do you think she loves him?" Spike asked innocently.

"I think that's what Rainbow meant," Twilight sighed, "We shouldn't tell Discord in case he doesn't know yet, but perhaps we should support her in her love. Rainbow is right...we are making it impossible for her to have happiness after this heartache."

"We can apologize after they return. Until then, let's watch to see if she returns to her house," Rarity turned to a nearby rose bush and picked one to set on the grave.

After the others had followed suit, they left. Heart heavy and now wondering what type of life Fluttershy had before everyone met her, they knew they messed up. And messed up bad.

Discord had caught up to Fluttershy and now they perched overlooking Ponyville. They saw her friends leave the cemetery and Fluttershy knew Rainbow had said the only piece of information she was allowed to say. Discord looked over to Fluttershy and pulled her into a hug. Oh how he wished he could comfort her more. This poor pony had friends against her, when they should have been more understanding and for her.

Fluttershy listened to his heartbeat. It was so calming, relaxing...steady. She felt safe, safe from Black Diamond, safe from her friends' judgmental minds, safe from everything. Her entire world melted away. Oh how she wished Discord loved her back. To be with him would be a dream come true. But yet, he only viewed her as a friend.

Discord kept thinking back to earlier when he almost revealed his feelings for Fluttershy. He had caught himself, and made sure no one figured out what his feelings were, especially Fluttershy. Though, he wished he didn't have to say "as a friend." It didn't seem right. He looked down to her and smiled gently. He could hear her soft breathing, watched the sun shine off her hair. She was beautiful in his eyes. No other pony could compete.

Both sat there for a while, just looking at the view. Fluttershy looked up to Discord and nudged him enough to get his attention.

"Want to go somewhere for a couple days? Like go visit Celestia? She had invited me to stay there a little while ago and I hadn't managed to take up that offer yet," she asked.

"What about your animal friends?" Discord looked down at her.

"They know where I keep food and they know my house rules. And the momma otter is fine. Her mate is looking after her. All my animal friends will be okay," she started flying off.

"Well then, let's go Visit Celestia," Discord smiled and followed her.
