T: So what do you wanna do today, Annie?
Annie: ………………….
T: Annie?
Annie: Huh?
T: I asked what you wanted to do today
Annie: I’m not sure…. yet but… T……
T: Yeah?
Annie: I……. I think we should take a break……
T: Take a break? From what? We haven’t done anything yet.
Annie: No, I mean……. from each other…
T: * stops walking * W-what? I don’t understand
Annie: Just…… a break from each other…… I’m not really sure how else to put it
T: * heart drops * Are…….. we breaking up?
Annie: NO! Absolutely not! I love you, T but I just think we need too…… y’know….. spend some time away from one another
T: But… why? I thought things were going fine…
Annie: * giggles * Things are fine. More than fine, in fact. It’s just……. Think about it. When’s the last time you’ve done anything without me?
T: …………….um
Annie: And when’s the last time you decided what we’d do when we go out?
T: * lowers head * I dunno…..
Annie: I……. just think taking a break will be healthy for us. I’m sorry if I’ve been too clingy. I’m just scared of
T: Being abandoned again.
Annie: Exactly! But I know you’ll NEVER abandon me. Ever. And that’s why I love you, among many, many, many other reasons. I would just really love to do my own thing for a bit. Be independent. Learn about myself. I honestly think we know each other better than we know ourselves.
T: I understand
Annie: Good. And you should do the same too. I….. really worry about you, T. We’re all have our own dreams and aspirations but…. it seems like you don’t. You’re so busy being a good guy, helping everypony else achieve their goals. You work at Claire’s shop, you help Del on the farm and help him cook, you’re always there when Candy needs someone to assist with carnivals, you help Prism try to find what he wants to do with his life, you spar with Starburst and you read books for me when I’m learning new spells.
T: …………..
Annie: What if you’re missing out on opportunities while helping all of us? We’re all really grateful for your help T, but I think you should do something for yourself for once. Can you do that?
T: * nods * Yes
Annie: Thank you
T: ……….. how long are we taking a break for?
Annie: I’m not sure. But it won’t be that long, okay?
T: Okay.
Annie: I love you, Turquoise Blitz and I always will, you hear? * puckers lips *
T: Mmhm * kisses Annie *
Annie: Good. Now go on! Go do something! Have some bro time with Prism or Del or whatever you want. YOU decide.
T: Alright.
Annie: And don’t worry about me. I’ll be perfectly fine
T: * nods * ………… so where are you going?
Annie: * raises eyebrow * T……….
T: I-I’m just asking so I don’t run into you
Annie: * giggles * Alright. If you must know, I’m probably going to your sister’s shop for a little bit
T: ‘Kay. I’ll….. see you around then….. I guess……. B-bye * walks away *
Annie: Bye, T! * walks to Claire’s shop *
