-Flashback, Pt. Three-
[Present, Hillside]
It's like our natural state of being, sitting with Maud lying right beside me on my right side, my hand stroking her mane gently. This time, we looked off into the distance at the setting sun, the changing colors of the clouds. I knew that she would always be by my side, there to support me in whatever I do with my life. She was my rock pony, my anchor of stability in this ever changing world.
[Past, Entertainment Room]
"Need more leather." I mumbled to myself as my Enderman-in-a-business-suit avatar moved through the Minecraft world. Various other vidgame musics played from the usb I had in the console.
Maud watched the television screen patiently.
"Don't worry, we'll get to mining soon." I said. "I just want to get equipped with some stone tools and leather armor before the spelunking ensues."
She looked over towards me, and I looked at her. I paused the game.
Those pale sapphire irises... Gentle gray fur... Smooth and flat dull-violet mane... A monotone but soothing voice... A rock-steady personality...
"Maud..." I found myself saying. I got out of my foldup chair thing and got on my knees to look her in the eyes.
"Maud, I love you."
Her face was neutral at first, but then she did something, something I have never seen her do before...
She smiled.
"I love you, too."
[Present, Hillside]
I gave my darling rock pony a hug, feeling her fur against my skin. I felt her move, and she hugged me back. That's a tight grip!
"I'm here for you. Always."
I very rarely cry in my life, and I have never cried in joy.
I feel secure in saying that this was the first time.
