-Impossible! A loud scream came from his lips as he kicked with all his might the ball that he was holding at his feet.
"That was an epic failure considering that you are a few meters from the goal." His opponent was right, he had crossed the entire field with the ball at his feet. However, a few meters from his destination a fleeting thought managed to get his attention.
-Sorry. Once again — without receiving a response from her opponent, the young woman took the ball again and ran to the opposite side of the court.
"If your mind is elsewhere, it doesn't matter how many times you try." The result will be the same, Scootaloo —the athlete stopped walking. Those words were completely true. What should I do then? He thought that sport would be the best way to escape the feelings he had at that moment, but in reality nothing could calm his crazy heart.
"So what do you suggest, Applebloom?!" Both girls were screaming from end to end. Although it really wasn't something they cared about much.
"End the doubt that now exists in your head!" —At such response the girl laughed.
"Interesting that you're the one who gives me that kind of advice!" The young cowgirl did not flinch for a moment at the comment, on the contrary a fleeting idea crossed her mind, causing her a small smile.
"A game, one against one!" A goal will be decisive for you to make a decision, do you think ?! —A great intrigue could be seen on the face of the athlete. Were her words serious? With great doubt in her new decision, the young woman nodded.
"Excellent plan!" Just don't cry when I beat you! The young cowgirl simply smiled, making the young woman swallow her words.
A ball placed in the middle of the court, a player at each end and a challenging look on each face. With a skill characteristic of the Scootaloo movie, stealing the ball in the first moments was a piece of cake. It was just the two of them, despite the advantage between them, the young cowgirl did not seem to have problems keeping up with me, she did not even seem worried about the final result. The athlete enjoyed the competition she had with her friend, for which she had forgotten the main objective and had dedicated herself to making fun of her at all times. Given such an act, the blonde thought it was the right time to make her move and take a deserved advantage.
"Isn't that Flash?" Oh, she's walking with ... - the young cowgirl doesn't need to finish this sentence for the Scootaloo movie to understand who she was talking about. In a tiny oversight to verify the blonde's words, the ball was directly stolen from her as it fell to the ground.
"Hey!" —The athlete was not at all happy with this trap, but could not blame her, she simply had to get up and continue.
"Good luck next time, Scoot!" In a desperate attempt to catch his rival yet another fall, he assured the blonde of victory.
"Damn ..." Even lying on the ground, the athlete could see how the ball of her opponent entered the goal, she could even swear that the ball was moving in slow motion.
—Eat eaten, isn't it? —The young cowgirl's smile grew with every thought that crossed her mind, today would be the day when her friend's insecurities ended, of that she was sure.
"I ask for a rematch," at that request the blonde denied, and with some care lifted her friend off the ground.
"Let's go to the infirmary, our meeting will continue later," with a great snort coming from her lips, the athlete nodded, it wasn't as if she had any other option, just as the fall had caused a little blood in one of her legs.
(...)
"I won't be long!" The young cowgirl left the infirmary without even waiting for a response from her opponent.
"How could I calm this feeling?" Scoot simply limited himself to lying motionless on the bed in the room, while looking out the window at the beautiful sky the day gave him.
"Scootaloo?" A somewhat agitated voice brought the athlete out of her thoughts. Her heart once again began to pick up that rapid beat that only happened when she was around.
"T-Pippi?" What's going on? Those words drew a happy sigh from the young woman.
—Applebloom told me that you were in the infirmary, I thought that something serious had happened so I came to see you — at such a confession the athlete began to feel the colors rise to her face. But she didn't know exactly if it was because of the anger she felt towards her friend's action, or because of the concern that the young woman in her thoughts felt for her.
"Puff, nothing I can't control." Everything is fine, a simple scratch - at that answer the girl with violet hair decided to get closer to her opponent to confirm her words.
-What happened? Scootaloo looked closely at the presence in front of her, which was looking at her with some concern.
-Nothing important. A simple drop while practicing — Scoot's cherry eyes, she continued to stare at the girl without shame. A sigh came from his lips as he admired her action that caught the attention of a certain violet gaze. In a quick movement both eyes met, it was as if a magnet attracted them, no matter how much shame they felt at that moment, their eyes did not want to stop admiring the beautiful landscape in front of them.
"S-Scootaloo?" With a small crimson color on her cheeks, the girl dared to break the beautiful silence that had formed when both eyes collided.
"You look so beautiful with that little crimson touch on your cheeks." The athlete's words had come out without warning. Despite the small embarrassment he felt at having mentioned certain words, he was unable to break that eye contact he maintained.
"T-Thank you." Y-You… "No matter how much the violet-haired young woman was looking for, she couldn't find a way to reciprocate towards such flattery, the words of the Scootaloo movie had left her speechless.
"You don't need to say anything." Just seeing you is enough for me, so don't go yet. Without thinking, Scoot had taken the delicate hand of his opponent, making the little blush that was kept on his face increase.
- Scootaloo, you ...? Pippi's beautiful voice was silenced. The voices of the students could be heard passing through the infirmary over and over again. The bell that announced the classes and also the one that ended the classes. Any noise could be heard except the one inside the white room.
"I like you, Pippi Longstocking." I like you a lot — the aforementioned didn't know how to act. Her legs trembled, her cheeks were deep red, and her heart was pounding. The athlete continued to look at those beautiful violet eyes that as much as they wanted to avoid it always ended up nailed to the cherry eyes of the young woman —Pippi if you ...
Before he could continue a small kiss was placed on his lips. It was an awkward kiss without any previous experience. She was trying to do her job while trying to enjoy the closeness of her opponent. Pippi was definitely not sure what she was doing, but when she felt the athlete stick her body to hers, any doubt was erased. The kiss continued, it was a simple kiss, a little awkward on both sides but with many feelings in between. The great need for air was present, a couple of centimeters separated the red faces of the young. Despite the shame they felt for such an act, a beautiful smile appeared on each of the faces.
"I like you, too, Scootaloo." I really like you. "A small laugh was present in the aforementioned upon hearing such a confession. The young woman felt a great weight disappear from her when she heard those words — now what? That question completely caught the athlete's attention and with a big sigh she answered.
-I do not know. I never thought it would go that far.
A small laugh came from both girls. Without mentioning anything else, the athlete decided to take the initiative and place a sweet kiss on the lips of her opponent, an action that the young woman received with pleasure. She wasn't sure what would happen tomorrow, but she was sure that anything would be great if she was with the owner of her thoughts.
