	“See ya later Twi,” I said as I reached out for the door of the library. My hoof made contact, but I was reluctant to push through, something was holding me back. 

“Bye Rainbow, talk to you tomorrow.” And there it was. The simple joy of hearing that beautiful voice brought a smile to my face. I was so stubborn before, denying myself what I knew to be true. I mean Rainbow Dash, the coolest pegasus in all of Equestria, a filly-fooler? At first it didn’t seem to add up, but once I let go it all made so much more sense.

Twilight is the most amazing unicorn ever, she’s gorgeous, smart, kind and everything I ever think I could need in a partner. I could actually picture it all in my head, living my life with her. Waking up in the morning and the first thing I see is her face and the first thing I here is her voice. That would be bliss. I was just ignorant before, now I don’t see how I could be happy without Twilight. 

Just spending the day a the library was amazing. Laying down with her in a little nook, poring over all these wondrous tomes of knowledge, burning away the daylight discussing whatever. “The what” was unimportant, “the who” is what mattered. This beautiful pony whom I could easily see in a wedding gown, speaking her vows to me.  

I’ve had crushes before but this was something special. I heard footsteps behind me.

“You okay Dash?”

“I’m fine, actually, I’m great. Can I ask you something?”
