Chapter 9- A Little More Than A Friend
Wingstrong was walking through the park, just because, when he saw Star in a dress Elegance made. Wingstrong was 15 now, meaning Star was 14. He stopped in his tracks. She was out in the park, showing the girls her new dress, only because Ellie made her. She looked beautiful in that gown, to Wingstrong. He was mesmerized by her.
'She has never looked more beautiful. I mean, just, wow. That dress she's wearing, it looks beautiful on her.' Wing thought. After that he decided to go home, in Cloudsdale. He had never felt like this before. He figured it was just being to high in the air for to long. Once he got home he went to his room, wanting to think things over.
"Wing, get your flank down here, it's dinner time!" Rainbow Dash called up the stairs for the third time, but he just heard her because he was in a daze.
"Coming!" Wing yelled and teleported down stairs into the dining room. Rainbow came in levitating six plates of hayburgers, an apple each, and a small cupcake each.
"Umm, last I checked there was only three of us." Wing said as he sat at the table.
"Oh, sorry, forgot to tell you. Twilight, Flash, and Star are coming over for dinner." Rainbow said as there was a knock on the door. "Oh, that must be them." She smiled.
"Ok." Wing smiled. For some reason he was so excited about seeing Comet Star again. Then she walked in. He couldn't stop staring.
"Hey, Wing." Star smiled. No answer. "Wing?" Still no answer. "Wingstrong?" She asked again.
"O-oh, h-hi." Wing stuttered, unable to find words.
"So what are we having?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah, what's on the menu?" Flash asked.
"Well we are having hayburgers, apples, and cupcakes." Soarin' said.
"Yeah, Soar and I made 'em ourselves." Rainbow smiled.
"Sounds good." Star smiled.
"Here." Wingstrong passed out all the trays, Star's first.
"Say, Wing, why is it you gave Star her's first? You always start at the ends of the table." Soarin' smirked, as Wing blushed.
"N-n-no reason." Wing said.
"Suuure." Soarin' said.
"Daaad! Please stop." Wing begged, using his light blue colored magic to lift his sandwich. Soon they all started and finished eating, and Twilight, Flash, and Star had to leave.
"I bid you all adieu." Twilight said.
"I'm not sure what she just said but, goodbye." Flash smiled.
"Goodbye, Wingstrong." Star smiled, unbeknown to her about his crush.
"Uhhh, g-goodbye." Wingstrong stuttered, as the door closed.
"Wing, whats wrong? You barely ate, and you love hayburgers." Rainbow wondered.
"I don't know. It's just seeing Star, I couldn't find words, couldn't focus, couldn't do anything. I just got this weird feeling in my stomach." Wing explained.
"A fuzzy, warm, feeling?" Rainbow smirked.
"Honey, are you going where I think your going with this?" Soarin' asked, also wearing the same smirk.
"Yes, that's it, why?" Wingstrong said.
"Oooh! Yes Soarin' that's where I'm going! Wing's got at crush on Star!''
"I-I do?'' Wing asked, surprised.
"Ohh yeah, you got it bad for her. You gotta tell her.'' Soarin' said. "I was friends with your mom for a long time. Then I told her I loved her, and here we are. You have to tell her." Soarin' explained.
"Ok I'll tell her after school. Don't even think about embarrassing me, got it?" Wing raised his brow.
"Yes, sir!" Soarin' mock saluted.
Rainbow elbowed him. "Don't worry, honey, we won't even be there." Rainbow said. "Right, Soarin'?" she glared at Soarin'.
"Uhh, right, honey." Soarin' eyes shifted left to right. The next day, after school Wingstrong made his way to Star, who was talking to Ellie and Shine(Shining Armor and Cadence decided to go see their sister/sister-in-law).
"Hey Star, can we uhh, can we talk... alone." Wing blushed.
Yeah, sure." Star said, noting the serious look on his face. Shine and Ellie saw it to, as they walked away.
"Ooooh. He's definitely in love with her." Shine giggled.
"How can you tell, Shine?" Ellie questioned.
"Hmph, you forgot, huh? Element of True Love, and daughter of the princess who can spread love." Shining Love Armour said, flatly.
"Ohhh yeah, heh, sorry." Ellie said. Meanwhile Star was being lead away by Wing.
"Sooo, Star, I was wondering. Do you want to take a flight with me? Just us?" Wing blushed.
"Wingstrong Dash, are you asking me out on a date?" She said, a little louder than intended. The girls just giggled when they heard her.
"Yeah, I guess it was a bad idea." Wing frowned and went to walk away, when Star kissed him on the cheek. That made him blush redder than the streak in his mane and tail.
"I never said 'no'. Of course I'll go. I mean what's the worst that could happen, us not working out? We'll always be friends." Star smiled.
"Right. We'll always be friends." Wing echoed. Star and Wing flew up into the skies. It was close to sunset, and a beautiful sunset at that. Soon they ate on a fairly large cloud. Then they just laid down and relaxed on said cloud.
"This has been fun." Wing smiled.
"Yeah, it has." Star beamed. They found themselves looking in each other's eyes.
"Has anypony ever told you that you have very beautiful blue eyes?'' Wing said.
"No, no pony has." Star said.
"Well then, let myself be the first." Wing smiled.
"You're too sweet." Star smiled. And there they were, gazing into the other ones eyes, their muzzles getting closer. And then they kissed. For a moment, the world stopped, for the both of them. They were just in their own little words, just them. When they broke apart both were blushing.
"Wow." Star said.
"That just happened, didn't it?" Wing asked.
"Yeah it did, and I don't regret it." Star smiled.
"Me neither." Wing smiled back. They just laid there on the cloud. Wing put his hoof on Star's. Soon, it was eight.
"Is it really eight? Oh my god! I gotta go! Sorry Wing, my overbearing dad has my curfew set at eight fifteen! Bye!" Star said.
"Bye, love you." Wing said.
"Love you, too." Star kissed him on the lips. "Bye!" She added as she flew away.
"She's the one, Wing, she's the one." He smiled as he told himself that. After that, he went home.
"Sooo, how was it? What'd you do? What happened? Tell us!" Rainbow rushed over to him.
"Well, babe, based on how the date lasted from four-thirty to eight, I'd say something happened. Now spill." Soarin' grinned.
"Well, we went for a fly, ate on a cloud, laid on that cloud." Wingstrong said this last part really fast. "And kissed." He blushed.
"You what?!" Rainbow and Soarin' said at the same time.
"On the first date?!" Rainbow gasped, shocked.
"Oh my gosh, son!" Soarin' yelled.
"Are you crazy?! You don't kiss a young mare on the first date!" Rainbow yelled.
"Oh, don't tell me how to live my life! And what can I say, she's the one." Wing said.
"I guess he's right, I mean it is his life, he should life it how he wants to." Soarin' softened up.
"Hmph, whatever. Just no grand goals for the next seven years!" Rainbow gave up arguing.
"MOM!" Wing yelled.
"What?!" Rainbow yelled in response.
"Oh my god! I can't believe you just said that!" Wingstrong said as he teleported to his room.
