My Little Pony: A Belle For Neo
Chapter 10
Neo's Special Friend
Sweetie Belle's birthday party was still going on and ponies were having fun, especially the fillies and colts, Sweetie Belle and Rartiy had a talk about Sweetie Belle's obsession with Neo and Sweetie Belle told Rarity everything. Sweetie Belle explained to Rarity that she feels safe around Neo and sees him as security for her, and yes she does have a crush on him. Rarity explained to Sweetie Belle that Neo won't always be around to help Sweetie Belle when she needs help or comfort, and she should never be afraid to come to her own sister when she needs help and comfort. Now Sweetie Belle understood how much Rarity loves and cares for her and she felt better, but now Rarity wanted Sweetie Belle to tell Neo her feelings for him, Rarity said Sweetie Belle would feel a lot better once she tells Neo her feelings for him.
So Sweetie Belle went outside to see Neo, everypony was still partying and having fun and the fillies and colts were playing with each other, Sweetie Bell was nervous about telling Neo her feelings for him, but she promised Rarity that she would do it. So Sweetie Belle trotted over to Neo, Neo was talking to some fillies and colts, Sweetie Belle approached him and asked if she could talk to him, Neo said he would get back with the fillies and colts and he turned to Sweetie Belle. Neo said, "What is it Sweetie Belle?" Sweetie Belle was nervous, she blushed and said, "Um.. well, you know how I've been spending a lot of time with you lately." Neo said, "Yeah, don't you like spending time with me?" Sweetie Belle said, "Oh I love being with you, but... I kind of have a crush on you." Sweetie Belle gulped nervously and hoped Neo wouldn't get mad. Neo was surprised, but he calmly said, "You do, well, you're very sweet Sweetie Belle, do you mean you are in love with me?" Sweetie Belle nodded her head nervously, then she said, "You see, ever since you were there for me when I ran and hid from everypony after hitting Twist, I started to feel safe around you, Rarity just scolded me and I thought she didn't care, I wanted to spend more time with you, so I invited you to sleep over with us, and that night I had my bad dream, when you let me sleep with you, you made me feel safe and secure, and I always felt safe around you, that's when I started to really love you, I really do love you Neo, do you love me?" Neo understood her story and he said, "Of course I love you Sweetie Belle, you're a very sweet little filly, but I'm afraid we can't be in love with each other, you see, you're a little too young for relationships, and by the time you're grown up, I'll be twice your age, plus I'm already in love with another pony."
Sweetie Belle understood and said, "Really, who is it, who is your special somepony?" Neo said, "Princess Luna." Sweetie Belle gasped and said, "You're in love with a princess, and it's Princess Luna." Sweetie Belle couldn't believe Neo was in love with one of the princesses of Equestria, Neo said, "Yes I am, I love Princess Luna very much, and she's in love with me too, she even told me so, and she's a wonderful princess, I love her so very much." Sweetie Belle was very happy that Princess Luna found somepony who loves her for who she is and not for royalty, and after everything Princess Luna went through in the past, she needs somepony to love her for who she is. So Sweetie Belle was happy for Princess Luna, she'd rather Neo be in love with Princess Luna thanbe in love with her, Sweetie Belle said, "You're a wonderful boy Neo, and I'm happy that you have somepony who loves you." Neo said, "Thank you Sweetie Belle, and you know what, we both know I can't be in love with you, but we can be very good friends, and you are my very special friend." Sweetie Belle was so happy, she had tears in her eyes, she gave Neo a hug and said, "I love you Neo," Neo hugged her back and said, "I love you too Sweetie Belle, you will always be my special friend."
Rarity and her friends saw Sweetie Belle hugging Neo and they awed at the sweet moment, Applebloom and Scootaloo watched them hug too and they thought it was very sweet. Then Sweetie Belle gave Neo a kiss on the cheek, Neo gave Sweetie Belle a kiss on the head and said he'll see her around, then Sweetie Belle went off to play with her friends. After Sweetie Belle went to play, Rarity approached Neo, she gently tapped Neo on the shoulder, Neo looked at Rarity, she smiled at him and said, "Neo, I just wanted to thank you for being so kind to my dear little sister, you and Sweetie Belle have become such good friends and that makes me so happy, and it was very sweet of you to let her sleep with you after she had that bad dream, you've made her so happy and you've made me happy too, thank you so much for caring for my dear little Sweetie Belle." Neo said, "You're welcome Rarity, I love Sweetie Belle very much and she's brought me so much joy, she's such a sweet little filly." Rarity said, "She certainly is, and I'm so happy she's my little sister."
Neo felt a little guilty that he might have ruined their sister relationship, Neo looked at Rarity and said, "Rarity... I'm sorry." Rarity made a concerned look and said, "Whatever for darling?" Neo said, "Since I spent so much time with Sweetie Belle and made her feel safe around me, she always came to me instead of you whenever she needed help or comfort, and I was afraid that I might have ruined your relationship as sisters, I'm sorry if I have." Rarity understood, she put her hoof on his shoulder and said, "Dearest Neo, you haven't destroyed my relationship with my little sister, in fact, you've helped me realize how important it is for me to be there for her more often when she needs me, and I can't thank you enough for that, you are a true friend and Sweetie Belle will always appreciate you, and I love you very much." Rarity gave Neo a hug, showing how much she appreciated everything he's done for her and Sweetie Belle.
Finally Sweetie Belle's birthday party was over and the mane 6, Spike and Neo helped clean everything up. Then the next day, Neo was putting on a show for everypony in ponyville, everypony came to the stage that Neo performs on and waited for the show to start, the curtain rose up and music played, Neo was on stage and so were the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Neo performed a song and the Cutie Mark Crusaders danced along to the song ("Lollipop" by Mika). Everypony watched the show and they loved it, Rarity and Applejack were so proud to see their little sisters performing on stage, their dances were so cute and Neo was also their dance instructor. When the song was over, everypony clapped and cheered for them, Rarity and Applejack cheered the loudest. Neo and the Cutie Mark Crusaders came off the stage, Neo hugged the Cutie Mark Crusaders and said they did an awesome job, Neo gave each of them a kiss on the head, making them blush. Then Rarity, Applejack and Rainbow Dash came to tell them that they did an awesome job as well.
Then Neo went outside to be alone and smoke a cigarette, a few minutes later, Applebloom came over to Neo, Neo put out his cigarette when she approached him, then Applebloom invited Neo to come spend the night at Applejack's farm at Sweet Apple Acres. He had never been to Applejack's farm, so he wouldn't mind coming over, Applebloom said he could meet her big brother Big Macintosh and Applejack's grandmother Granny Smith. Neo said he would come, Applebloom jumped for joy and went to tell Applejack, when Applebloom was out of sight, Neo thought to himself, "Here we go again."
