Into the Everfree (for Pinkly Smooth)

"I-is there any way I could learn it?"

 

"Twilight Sparkle taught me..." Bolt thought aloud.

 

"So, is that a yes?"

 

"I guess..." Bolt said. "You have to use certain hoof symbols and it differs between ponies."

 

"Oh...", Xeno says, sounding a little disappointed

 

"Sorry Xeno...I'm too dumb to teach you." Bolt sighed

 

"I doubt that, & you should never talk down about yourself.", Xeno said hugging him

 

Bolt hugged her back. "How do I make you nervous?" He asked in awe. "You're like so far outta my league."

 

"I already told you, I'm sh-shy, plus I don't want to make you mad...", Xeno says, her voice fading beyond the point of comprehension

 

"You never would! I love you too much." Bolt promised

 

Xeno stopped mumbling, & smiled,"th-thank you..."

 

"You're welcome." He said, nodding and smiling

 

Xeno smiled,"shall we then?"

 

"Am I flying?" He asked, still smiling

 

"N-no...", Xeno said, giggling

 

"That's it. Time for you to laugh your flank off! That always opens up ponies. Pinkie Pie says so!" Bolt yelled, jumping at Xeno and tickling her

 

Xeno sits there, blushing,"c-can you get off m-me?"

 

Bolt ran off, yelling "Pinkie Lied!!!", red faced and ashamed. He hid behind a tree and hoped Xeno wouldn't scold or hate him.

 

"Come back out, I'm just not ticklish...", Xeno says sadly

 

Bolt poked his head out from behind the tree.
