Enjoy :)
Rainbow walked into the school, hoping to the gods no one would notice the black eye. She walked through the school, doing her absolute best not to make eye contact with anyone or even look from the ground. She glanced up occasionally so she wouldn't bump into anyone as she slunk down the hall, walking as if every person she passed was out to get her and she was their prey.
Rainbow made it to her locker. Unlocking it, she began to take out her history and English notebook. She was grateful she hadn't had any homework.
"Rainbow!."
Rainbow jumped, partially slamming her hands onto the locker next to her. She looked over her right shoulder to see Pinkie Pie bouncing towards her, a huge grin on her face. The girl has her books in hand, wearing glasses that Rainbow hadn't seen the day before.
"Hey, buddyyyy." Pinkie said, smiling.
Rainbow smiled shyly. "Oh uh, Hey, Pinkie Pie."
"Are you allergic to cake??." Pinkie asked.
Rainbow raised an eyebrow at the odd question. "Um... no."
Pinkie put her books down and took of her bright blue book bag and placed it on the floor carefully, kneeling down. Unzipping it, Pinkie took out a paper plate with another paper plate on top. Pinkie stood up and held it out with both hands.
"I baked a cake the other cake and I thought you'd like some."
Rainbow was surprised. No one had ever given her something. Or even thought about her. She smiled.
"Really? For me?."
Pinkie nodded. "Of course, silly. Your the only Rainbow Dash I know."
Rainbow took the cake. She peeked inside. Chocolate. Her favorite.
"Thanks." She said. "This means a lot."
Pinkie shrugged. "No problem."
She suddenly frowned. "What happened to your eye??."
Rainbow frowned. Uh oh.
"Oh uh this. It's nothing. Don't worry about it. It didn't happen here, so don't tell any teachers. I'm fine now."
"Are you sure-."
"Rainbow. Pinkie."
Rainbow and Pinkie turned their heads to see Applejack and her friends walking towards them. Rainbow gulped, still shocked that Applejack knew her name and wanted to be her friend.
"Oh my gosh."
"Play it cool, Rainbow." Pinkie whispered, nudging her. "Just act like you normally do and you'll be fine."
Rainbow looked at her. Pinkie smiled brightly at her, obviously not knowing how panicked Rainbow felt right then and there. Rainbow nodded, trying to breathe.
"Hey."
Rainbow nearly jumped out of her skin. She turned her head to see Applejack looking at her. Applejack frowned, her face turning to concern.
"What happened to yir eye, Rainbow??." She asked.
Rainbow felt her anxiety rise.
"I don't wanna talk about it." She said, looking away. "It's nothing."
"Are you sure??."
Rainbow looked up at who the voice came from. Twilight Sparkle. The smartest girl in school. She was a nerd like Rainbow and Pinkie, but she was a cool nerd that other people in school actually liked.
