Discord drummed his talons on the table with a bored expression, while he watched their art teacher, Mr. Illuminato.
Mr. Illuminato sat behind his desk. He looked at each student in turn, before speaking "You all know, it's Hearts and Hooves Day," he paused, "and since I am your art teacher, today you will be making cards for the special somepony in your life." A smile crossed his face, he gave a small wink to Discord.
Discord winked back, before he turned to look at Fluttershy. She was looking out, the window by her desk, with a smile. He smiled She looks so...peaceful.
"FLUTTERSHY!"
Fluttershy jumped, turning to look at the teacher.
Mr. Illuminato shook his head, "I allow you to sit by the window, but please pay attention when I speak."
Fluttershy nodded her cheeks red, from embarrassment. All ponies had their eyes on her, including Discord, but for diferent reasons.
Only if I could make her blush like that. He thought smiling.
"Ahem!" All ponies turn back to their art teacher. "Now that I have your attention," he looked at Fluttershy, "As I said, today is Hearts and Hooves Day. I want you to spend the rest of class making a card for your special somepony." He pointed his hoof at a cabinet, "The supplies are in there. Don't make a mess and Discord, er, class express your feelings with it."
Discord smiled, Mr. Illuminato knew about his secret crush since the day Discord was caught writing a love note to Fluttershy.
Discord was sitting at his desk, a pen in hand. He moved the pen swiftly back and forth on the paper. He was about to finish when Mr. Illuminato, used his magic to lift the paper off the table, he read it and smiled. "I'll just keep this."
Discord felt sick just thinking about the memory. How can I trust my art teacher to keep my secret? he thought. Then agian, he kept it a secret this whole time.
"I think it's the time to tell her." Somepony whispered, causing Discord to jump.
Discord turned to find himself face to face with Mr. Illuminato! How long has he been standing there? "I-I can't.." he whispered back.
"You can"
"She won't like me back," Discord paused to look at Fluttershy, who was searching the supply cabinet, "I doubt she will still be my friend after I tell her."
"I know Fluttershy, she is a shy student," Mr. Illuminato paused "and she won't leave you.." with that he went back to his desk.
You can do it! Discord encouraged himself, Just confess your love! Taking a deep breath, he got up and made his way to Fluttershy, who was still searching the cabinet. He passed the teacher, who was cheering him on.
All eyes were on Discord, a piercing silence. Discord, finaly reaching Fluttershy, took a deep breath. "Fluttershy.." he said nervously.
"Yea?" Fluttershy said turning to face him.
Discord saw hope in her eyes -hope for what? He will never know. Panic rised, he couldn't do it. He said the first thing that poped into his head. "Do they have pink?"
"Yea.." Fluttershy said with bits of disapointment in her voice.
Discord didn't notice as he grabed the pink paper and some blue lace, before retreating to his desk. He heard his teacher sigh as he passed his desk. Why am I such an Idiot!? I could of told her, but no I had to chicken out! Discord sighed as he sat down. You know what, he thought sitting up tall I'll make the romantic-est card ever for her! That'll show her my love!
AN/ Second chapter! Hmm..I have a feeling I spelled many things wrong...oh well. Reviews are nice! Peace!
