Enjoy :)
Months, and nearly a year, went by quickly. Skittles and Applejack had become quite close friends, texting each other and on in nights when Skittles' dad wasn't home, they'd be at the window, quietly joking around and laughing, Applejack telling Rainbow everything about her day at her company. Applejack had recently graduated high school and all her friends were going off to college or something.
Twilight was now working for the government. Skittles thought that was pretty cool. Pinkie Pie wanted a job as professional party planner so she went to business school. Fluttershy went to vet school. Rarity went to fashion and design school.
Shocker.
Applejack. Well she became the CEO of her family apple cider and apples company. Granny Smith apples were becoming own of the most famous apple brands in Equestria. She became a busy girl, going to meetings to be able to expand the company further out, helping out in the work field during the day. It was a lot of work.
But she always made time for Skittles.
Applejack would come home from work each day and go up to her room. She'd ignore everything else and sit at her window, her phone in hand, typing away to the girl on the other side.
Those were her favorite moments in her day. Talking to Skittles, laughing, telling Skittles about her day and the things going on in the world. Skittles wouldn't say much about herself, just how she was doing, what she had done that day which mostly consisted of eating, sleeping, watching tv, and organizing meetings for her dad. She still wouldn't say what her dad did for a living.
So Applejack didn't ask. It didn't matter. As long as Skittles was there and safe.
Applejack chuckled into the phone.
"Yeah. She's good. Still won't tel me nothin."
"How long have you two been friends??."
Applejack thought about it.
"Mmmm........ nine..... maybe ten months months Ah'm guessin."
"Wow. A year now?? Where were we all that time?? And how is that going??."
Applejack smiled. It was great. She couldn't ask for a better friend. Skittles was funny, rambunctious, hyper, sweet, a bit of a hothead, stubborn, kinda on the crazy side of daring when she gets bored.
"It's going pretty good. She's on your guys' level of friendship right about now, ah reckon."
"Wow." Twilight sounded surprise. "She must something special. I really wish we could meet her."
Applejack hummed in response.
"Yeah. She is special."
Applejack sighed, her mind drifting off. "She's............. amazing, Twi. She's smart, funny, beautiful beyond compare to anyone else. She's sweet and darin' and she can be a smart ass. She just makes me wanna kiss her sometimes cuz she rambles when she's nervous or scared, but she tries ta hide it and look tough-."
"Kiss her??"
Applejack paused. Her eyes widened. Had she really just said that?? Out loud??
