"Hey Applejack hang back would ya?" I ask Applejack, leaving sugarcube corner.
"How come ya'll can't catch up huh?" She reply's with a cheeky grin on her face.
"Oh maybe 'cos im not running, but jogging instead."
this couldn't be a more irritating time right now
"Well come on. We gotta be heading to Rarity's place." Applejack calls back with a "hurry up" tone.
"Fine but im not looking forward to it." I say in a slightly glump expression.
"Why's that sugarcube?" Applejack asks me.
"Im not a fan of Rarity ... at all." I answer hoping to not get yelled at.
"That makes two of us." Applejack follows with.
at least there wasn't any yelling
"Well come on then Josh." Applejack signals.
"Fine. I might as well ask if she could help me with somethin'"
"And what might that be?" Applejack asks with a suspicius look.
"If she could try and make me some clothes." I turn to her with a raised eyebrow.
"Well alrighty then" She turns back and continues walking.
i hope we get there soon 'cos i want this to pass quickly
11:00 and we arrived at Rarity's Boutique. It's a relativly tall building that looked white and light purple coloured.
Im not going to drag this out any longer than nececcary
"Okay, we're here." Applejack notes without seeing me walk past her.
"Yeah i can see that." I answer with a rude tone.
"well im goin' to head back to the Farm and check on Granny Smith. Okay sugarcube?"
"Yeah fine. Ill try and leave a good first impression."
im not making promises though
"Ill be leavin' then." Applejack turns and walks off but not before I say bye.
okay ... here goes
I knock on the door in a lazy fashion like when you wake up in the morning to go to school.
"Just a minute"
that has to be Rarity
"Come in please" Rarity talks from the other side of the door.
I walk in but I don't speak a word.
"Who is it Sweetiebelle?" Rarity asks her nowhere to be seen sister.
I check the surrounding room and i notice Sweetiebelle under Rarity's work desk.
"Urm, Rarity your sister is busy hiding under the desk."
"Sweetiebelle, Could you please escort our guest up to my room."
I hope she's not hiding 'cos of me
"Sweetiebelle?" I begin to slowly walk to the desk to speak to her when she darts to my left leg.
"urm ... who are you?" she seems scared but is also trying to seem brave.
"Im Josh. and your Sweetiebelle of course." I try to sound as soft as possible as to be friendly.
"Well ... my sister wants to see you upstairs, follow me." She starts walking towards the pearl coloured staircase.
"Okay then." I follow with haste.
Upstairs Rarity is working on an amber coloured dress with red lining and yellow frills.
"Rarity, he's here." Sweetiebelle tells her sister from the chair beside the stairs.
"Thank you Sweetiebelle. Now how may i help you. WAHHAHAAA!" Rarity quickly changes from calm to scared in the blink of an eye and jumps about a foot.
well ... that was expected
"Rarity, Applejack send me here to introduce myself."
I stay calm and explain why im here and how i got here to begin with.
"So your good?" Rarity asks me while still behind a chair.
"Yeah I am." I sigh to this question and turn my attention to Sweetiebelle.
"So how about you Sweetiebelle? Got any questions for me?"
"Yeah urm ... can I get my friends so they can see you too?"
"Yeah sure but try to keep scootaloo leashed would ya?"
"Yay. Ill go get them now." She was jumping on the spot then made like rainbow dash out the door.
"Wow she really likes her friends." I say to Rarity, noticing her walking up to me.
"Well you know kids these days, right?" she seemed to be rubbing her mane while she said this.
"Actually I don't know. I usually tend to ignore younger kids. Plus my younger brother is only 3 years younger than myself." This upset me since i wasn't able to argue with him anymore.
"Well trust me when i say you'll find out soon ok dear?" she was looking at me directly now.
"Okay then but I really hope not to get put on the ground by kids today unless my back is turned."
i hope Applebloom isn't going to be resting on me again. it was awkward
"Hey Rarity is Josh still here?" I instantly recognised that voice as Applejack's.
"Applejack? ... You wouldn't happen to be here with the kids would you?" I ask from upstairs.
"Well im with Applebloom and Sweetiebelle if thats who ya'll mean?"
"Yeah but i expected Scootaloo too." I say hiding that im kinda glad she wasn't there ... at the moment.
Rarity walks down stairs first and asks "Why are you here Applejack?"
"Im just checkin' on the sugarcube." she reply's giving me a cheeky grin knowing what she did.
"APPLEJACK! SERIUOSLY?" I yell in my regular blush she gives me.
"heheh. Sorry sugarcube but it's just so funny." Whilst Applejack was rolling on the floor laughing the others just stare at me then and Applejack then back to me.
"hmpf. ok maybe a tiny bit but seriuosly." i say under my breath.
"Are you two finished?" Rarity asks us both not looking to impressed.
"Yeah sorry." Applejack answers, getting back to her hooves
"About time." both Sweetiebelle and Applebloom say in unison.
"Okay so why did you want to get Applebloom Sweetiebelle?" Applejack questions.
"So we could play with Josh, silly." Sweetiebelle answers giggling.
"Oh ... well could I have a word with him first?" Applejack asks the kids with her head low.
"Aw okay but after we play. Right Sweetiebelle?" Applebloom reply's bouncing in place.
"Yeah!" Sweetiebelle mimics her friend.
"Alrighty then. Josh upstairs please." Applejack asks me in a quiet tone.
"urm ... sure."
i head upstairs and sit down on the chair to the left of the stair case. Applejack follows up.
"So whats up AJ?" I ask, slightly concerned.
"Josh ... ive heard how you talk, how you act towards different ponies, even mahself, but I want you to be as caring as possible to the young uns, ok?
"Yeah that won't be a problem, but i can tell thats not why we are here on our own."
"Your right. ya'll are observant. We'er on our own 'cos i need to know somethin'."
is ... is she blushing?
"Are you always grabbing the attention of the girls? Even on earth?"
"No ... im single and most of the girls hate me for my attitude and how i talk to some of them. Im not proud of any of it however I have had a vast amount of GF's aswell.
"Oh well thats good. Then this won't be a bad thing."
She blushes and moves closer to me. she closes the gap between our faces and lands a kiss my lips.
She ... she's kissing me?
the sensation this sent through my body was warm and tingly. like a million dancing stars glistening in the night sky.
she breaks the kiss and backs her head away slowly.
"Applejack ... I ..."
"It's ok. It was out of the blue."
"It was amazing."
"Same here, sugarcube."
we stare into eachother's eyes for what felt like an eternity when the silence was broken by an imposing voice.
"Well if you two are done staring at each other, could you come downstairs and leave with the kids so they can play."
"RARITY! how much did you see?" Both me and Applejack exclaim in unison, blushing like a blazing fire.
"Oh ... enough." Rarity reply's with a cheeky grin.
"you're not goin' to tell anyone are ya?" I ask in hope of a no.
"ill keep quite ..."
phew
"... under one condition."
i knew it!
"what is it Rarity?" Applejack asks in a hurried sentence.
"That I make Josh some new clothes." Rarity's eyes glisten when she speaks this.
"I was actually going to ask that earlier."
"Now if I could just get some measurements."
"Ill be down stairs okay?" Applejack starts heading down to check on the kids.
"It won't be long dear. now lets see here."
Rarity took measurments for my hight, width, arm and leg lenght as well as torso build.
"Done! I shall start working on these immediatly."
"Well im goin' down to check on AJ and the kids. Ill check here later to pick up my new clothes."
"I shall see you later then, my dear." Rarity says to me not turning her head away from her desk.
i walk downstairs and am instantly met with the ground with Applebloom on my back.
"gotcha Josh. Ha"
"ouch. Okay you got me."
"Now Applebloom get off of him so he can stand up." Applejack says to her little sister in a soft voice.
"Aw okay."
"Thanks AJ." I get to my feet and walk over to the door.
"So are we gonna go or are we just gonna stay at Rarity's?"
"YAY!" Applebloom and Sweetiebelle exclaim at a deafening volume.
"Im gonna tag along too." Applejack says, walking up next to me.
"Ok then. Lets go.!"
