After lying awake in bed for nearly 2 hours. I figured it was time to finally start this new life. I knew on this very day, both my mother and I were scrambling around trying to grab our necessities.
I remember when I forgot to put my pants on, hehe..., but that was in the previous life. This is a new one. It's about time I take the initiative, and make breakfast for the both of us.
I hopped out of bed, and stared at my alarm clock, "5:55. Alright...," I trailed off as I quietly moved downstairs. I remembered making her a fruit salad, and she told me she would've loved to have some jam to give it more flavor.
Remembering that, I moved to make the fruit salad. All while making some eggs, and bacon. The basic breakfast necessities. Once I finished cooking, I made a little note, and placed it under her coaster for the apple juice I poured for her. She told me it was her favorite breakfast time drink.
Anyway, I wiped the small trace of sweat off my forehead, and sighed, "Welp, time to take a shower...," I walked towards the bathroom, and as I touched the doorknob, and a thought crossed my mind.
She said she's never had any type of special treatment from anyone since she's never had a boyfriend. Which still baffles me since she's a beautiful, young woman. If I hadn't known any better, I would date her. Perhaps if I had met her in this world if I was older, maybe it could've worked out...
Anyway, I feel like after I finish showering, I should make her a nice relaxing bath. Oh, and perhaps, I can set all that food on a bed tray, and serve her breakfast in bed. This time, she can actually wake up on time instead of rushing around. Alright, everything that's happening now will be based on what I do. I can't allow anything that happened before to ruin my moments here. Alright, let's quickly take a shower, and show my mother a great time from her son!
Once I finished up my shower, I slapped on some pants, and quickly went to set everything on a tray. Of course I heated the food up again, but I also put the note in my pocket. I rewrote it and I decided to give it to her once I left.
I took a deep breath, and stared at a clock on the wall, "6:00. A good time. Hopefully she doesn't take too long getting ready." The sun was already just barely over the horizon. It rose ever so slowly as I opened the door to her room.
Once I stepped inside, I saw her sleeping peacefully on her bed. I smiled as I opened the blinds in her room. I saw her eyes flutter open before stretching, "Hm? Orion, what is that?"
"Well, there's a thing called breakfast in bed, and since you're single, no one has ever done this for you," I placed the tray in front of her and smiled as she looked at the food, "Is something the matter?"
I soon saw some tears fall from her eyes as she looked at me with a smile, "No, this is... amazing...," She trailed off as she smiled brightly at me, making me feel an emotion I hadn't felt since all the bullshit from before... happiness, "Thank you so much sweetie...," She reached out for a hug. and I gave her one. She squeezed tightly, and she started to lightly caress my body, "You're an orphan, but you have such a toned body."
"Just because I was an orphan doesn't mean I was out of shape, but could you not do that? It feels weird..."
"Oh, sorry. Either way, thank you so much sweetie."
"No problem. Also, here's a little note I wrote for you. I'm heading off to school a little early so I can meet the principal."
"Alright, be safe sweetie," I smiled at her as I walked out of her room. I could hear her open the note ever so slowly as I started to make my way outside.
-Third Person POV-
Nurse Redheart opened the letter, and began reading it.
It read:
Thank you Ms. Redheart. This change may take some getting used to, but I know for sure that this change will be one that I've needed for who knows how long. You may have made my life, probably not by a lot, better.
Whether it was being adopted by you. or knowing that someone out there in that vast, inhumane world, lies a diamond in the rough. Thank you once again for making my life...
meaningful for the first time in my life...
Nurse Redheart held the note close to her heart as she stared out the window. Outside that window, was Orion staring up at the window. He put his helmet on before riding off to school.
He stopped at a traffic light, and looked at his bike. He rubbed his hand as the friction from the motorcycle was beginning to burn slightly. However, he began thinking about the previous life he had just endured.
All those images ran rampant through his mind. The honk of a horn snapped him out of it as he looked behind him to see an angry driver. He glanced at the traffic ligh, and he held his hand up after realizing that he had not seen the green light before driving off. He took a deep breath as he continued driving with those same images still running through his mind, "I thought she was suppose erase those memories. What if people still remember them like I do? What if... Rarity remembers...?"
That thought lingered within the back of Orion's mind as he made his way to school. If what he's thinking is true... then he'll have no hope in relieving himself of his depression...
