Silence.

As soon as I sat down and we started driving, silence overflowed the sports car. I expected this to happen but It hurts knowing that it's true.

I look over to Pinkie, who's fixated on the road. Usually, she would do her best to do the opposite but...

I should probably stop comparing her to her past self. A lot has happened over the years but I just can't help but miss the connection we had. But I'm the one who ruined that.

The car stops.

"You know you've been staring at me for a reallyyy long time, right."

My face turns to a soft red of embarrassment and she just starts to laugh.

I crack a smile to myself. She's laughing again...That's a reli-

"You really know how to get on someone's nerves don't you?"

She mumbles, but loud enough for me to hear.

"What?"

She grins at me and gives me a classic 'nothing' and we continue driving.

I look the other way, watching the cars drive by.

I have no words...I feel like complete shit. Did she mean it?

Did she want me to hear how disgusting and annoying I am? My ears start ringing and tears start filling my eyes.

What the fuck is wrong with me.

It was just one sentence but it completely destroyed me. Is this how she felt when I said words like that to her? Is this her way of getting revenge?

I look back to see she's on the phone while waiting for the traffic to clear up.

It sounds like she's talking to Sunset, and she sounds pretty happy about it.

Not like she wasn't always cheerful but certainly not around me anymore.

I look back outside the window. 

I wasn't a good person towards her back then.

I let all my frustration and anger out on her. I was depressed, anxious, and constantly overthinking. Hell, you could even say I'm still like that...

But she was one of the only people there for me. Sure the rest of the girls was here for me, but only Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and AJ understood what I was going through.

And after Fluttershy left for California and AJ helping around her farm more often, Pinkie Pie did all she could to stay by me and stuck with me to the end. And I once did too.

I don't know when it started but I just spiraled out of control like my father.

Instead of being there for her and letting her in, I pushed her away. I yelled and screamed at her, most of the time for no reason.

Eventually, she left me. Not because it was her choice but because it was the best for both of us.

At least that's what she said.

Pinkie turned on the radio after what felt like hours of silence. I wiped the tears now powering from my face, making sure it's not visible.

One of our favorite songs started to play, completely catching me off guard. It was a pretty simple song, no intense bass or drums.

Which was unsual, especially since back in highschool I played the electric guitar and she played the drums.

But I guess it's nice to just be at ease once in a while, no screaming, no intense emotions, just peace.
