Friends look at friends that way? (Appledash)

Awkward

Chapter 7 - Awkward
Rainbows pov:

I watched Applejack get out of the car fast with her dog. The lights in her house were off for a good 5 minutes until they turned back on. I figured I would do no good staying parked in front of her house. So I just pulled out and drove back home. My parents weren't home, they were on another work trip. So lucky for me I got home to an empty house. The lights were on and all I saw was tank. I ran upstairs into my room and shut the door. I put all the clothes I bought on the floor near my drawer. I turned the tv on to Daring Do and jumped into my bed. I layed there with so many thoughts.

I felt absolutely horrible. The way I treated Applejack? Why did I ask her, if she liked anyone. Why did I say she was my friend? Wasn't that what she wanted? Me just to be her friend? Or did she want to be more. Maybe she stormed out of my car because of the tension we had. I felt my eyes get watery. Why was I tearing up? I felt my heart get heavy. I felt horrible that I could've been the reason me and applejack won't be friends anymore. My stupid crush for her had cause tension between us and now I'm not sure what will happen.

Tears started to come out and I wiped them vigorously. I could not be crying, especially over someone I liked! I'm 20% cooler than everyone else. This was not possible. I still couldn't help but think of AJ tho. What was she doing now. What could I do to make her feel better? The thought of her stayed with me as I fell asleep.

I woke up to a loud ringing sound. It was maybe the worst sound I've heard in a while. I hated Thursdays. Especially today's Thursday. It was going to be the first day having practice with Lightning Dust. I stretched and got out of my bed. I changed and brushed my teeth and hair. I headed outside and said goodbye to tank. I took my keys out and turned my car on. I hopped in and started to drive to school. I wonder how Applejack was feeling. I was hoping she was feeling alright.

I got to school and I couldn't find my friends. Where could they be? I looked at our group chat and there was nothing sent. I decided to walk to the lockers since I had no where else to be. I checked my phone and opened Instagram it was a story photo of Applejack and Pinkie Pie in the back of the school, they were making posters for some class. Pinkie also tagged an account on that photo. It said @appleofwhoseye. Who was that I thought? Knowing no better I tried to click the account. For some reason nothing was found. Maybe it was AJ I thought? The thing is tho why would I not see her account? Was it a secret account?

Then it hit me. Maybe she had another account and I was blocked, but why? Was it because of last night? The guilt in my stomach was unbearable I ran to the bathroom just to see a face I didn't want to see at all, Lightning Dust. She was wearing a black short sleeve shirt and grey athletic shorts. Her sleeves were rolled up to show her upper arms. I didn't want to admit it but she looked good. The only thing that was bad about the outfit was her bright yellow shoes.

Even tho she looked good I still couldn't get Applejack out of my head. Even if I hadn't seen AJ today I still knew she was looking good. She always looks good and everyone knows that. I slowly stepped into the bathroom as I tried to make quiet steps to the stall. I looked back to see Lightning Dust already looking at me. We saw each other and didn't say a word. I turned my head and walked into the stall. What the fuck was that I thought? Lightning Dust didn't say a word to me and I couldn't find my friends. What was going on? My stomach started to hurt and I just stood in the stall with my phone in my hands. I looked at the time. My class was in one minutes and the bell was about to ring. I had to go.

I got to my English class and I saw my usual classmates, thankfully Fluttershy was there. I sat next to her and tapped her shoulder. "Where were you guys today? Where was the group? Are you guys mad at me?" I asked not like they would be, I was just overthinking a bit.
