<strong>The</strong> skull cleared a nonexistent throat and faced her again. “Just fine.<br />

Though I have to ask what you’re doing sneaking into the room this early.”<br />

“Oh, I was just bringing Blackstone a sweet little something to get his<br />

morning started off right.” Pinkie replied, pulling the bag of turnovers out of<br />

her mane. Bob, however had already started laughing. He was obviously<br />

trying to stop but just as obviously failing. Pinkie grinned curiously. She<br />

liked to make ponies laugh (even though Bob wasn’t exactly a pony per<br />

say), but she preferred it to be when she said something funny. She<br />

giggled along with him as his fit wound down, but her joviality was<br />

interrupted by another yawn.<br />

Pinkie rubbed her eyes. <strong>The</strong> excitement over meeting Bob had kept her<br />

tiredness at bay, but now it was coming back in force. “I don’t know why I’m<br />

so tired. I guess I didn’t get enough sleep last night. Maybe I need a nap.”<br />

Bob stared intently at her again, but this time there was some different<br />

about it. Something Pinkie wasn’t sure she liked. “You know,” he said very<br />

casually. “You could take a nap here. Even with Blackstone and Mouse on<br />

the bed, it has more than enough room for another pony. And I could keep<br />

an eye on your ‘sweet little something’ if you’d like.”<br />

Pinkie frowned, but she was getting more and more tired. “Are you sure he<br />

wouldn’t mind?”<br />

Bob chuckled. “Of course not. Blackstone is your friend, isn’t he? He’d be<br />

happy to help you out.” Pinkie yawned again and tried to kick-start her<br />

quickly clouding mind. <strong>The</strong>re was something odd about Bob, but the bed<br />

really looked too comfortable to pass up. She stumbled over to the downy<br />

temptress, pausing only to set the bag of turnovers and thermos of coffee<br />

on the nearby nightstand. Pinkie eased into the bed carefully, trying hard<br />

not to wake Blackstone.<br />

It wasn’t easy; he was in the center, so she had to get really close just so<br />

she wasn’t falling off. But she managed and let out a sigh of relief as she<br />

relaxed. Pinkie finally stopped fighting her exhaustion and let her eyes<br />

slowly close. Within moments the only sound in the room was the light<br />

snoring of two sleeping ponies. Bob laughed to himself, his eyes<br />

glimmering with anticipated mischief.
