20 Calories Over the Belt
[At the Ice Cream Shop…]
“I can’t believe we have to wear these belts now,” said Bon Bon.
“Yeah, I don’t like them either,” said Clover. They aren’t all that comfortable.
“At least they’ll keep our shorts up,” said Sweetheart.
“That works as long as we have shorts like these,” said Bright Eyes. New Navy has stuff that doesn’t have the place for a belt as the shorts are more stretchy.
“Well those sound better,” said Starlight.
“I don’t know,” said Melody. I kinda like them, they give my belly support.
“Well there’s that too,” said Bright Eyes. I guess if there’s that and that they hold our shorts up, then they can’t be all bad.
“We should see how well the other are taking them,” said Starlight. *they walk over to their other friends*
“So how do you all like your belts?” asked Bright Eyes.
“Simply marvelous, dahling,” said Rainbow Dash. Mine has rainbows, which is just right for me.
“Yeah, mine has different shades of green,” said Minty, giggling.
“I think we all know what mine is,” said Pinkie also giggling.
“They aren’t uncomfortable to you?” asked Bon Bon.
“Not at the settings we put them, dear,” said Rainbow Dash.
“There are other settings?” asked Starlight.
“Well no wonder we weren’t comfortable, “ said Bright Eyes. We have them such that they’re practically at the last notch. *they loosen their belts*
“That’s truly much better,” said Sweetheart.
“You said it, Sweetheart,” said Bon Bon.
“Oh well,” thought Melody. Less support for my belly but still some.
“I think we can breathe better now,” said Bright Eyes.
“Now we also truly see that belts aren’t so bad after all,” said Sweetheart.
“We should all look for belts that better match who we are,” said Melody.
“It’s getting late, dear, we should all be getting back,” said Rainbow Dash.
“Yeah, you’re right,” said Melody. See you all later. *the ponies go their separate ways* [The next day, at the Ice Cream Shop…]
“Wow, cool belt, Melody,” said Bright Eyes.
“Yeah, it’s much more me,” said Melody.
“I got one with math in it,” said Bright Eyes.
“That makes sense since you are pretty smart,” said Starlight.
“Which one did you get, Sweetheart?” asked Patch.
“It took me a while to really truly decide,” said Sweetheart. I managed to get an extra special one with Teddy on it.
“Cooking is on mine since it’s what I love doing,” said Bon Bon.
“That’s a great one, Bon Bon,” said Sweetheart.
“Mines sort of a crazy silly one,” said Patch.
“Suits you, Patch since you are our class clown,” said Bright Eyes.
“What about you, Clover?” asked Starlight.
“Mine’s about luck,” said Clover. It has different things on it that are supposed to be lucky like a four-leaf clover, and, well, me.
“What’s this I hear about belts?” asked Ace.
“We all got one to keep our shorts up,” said Melody.
“Yours looks extra good, Mel,” said Ace.
“Uh, thanks,” said Melody.
“Yeah, yours too, Bright Eyes,” said Lancer.
“Thanks,” said Bright Eyes. [Later that night…]
“Dear diary,” thought Bon Bon writing in her diary. It’s nice to know that we can have belts that are just what we’re looking for and that allow us to widen them for a better fit. *she stops writing, then sleeps*
