"You know I always thought that you loved books perhaps even more than you love me especially with how you always seem to lug around that dictionary." Cadance said in a teasing tone.

"Leave my dictionary out of this." Twilight grumbled.

Cadance instead continued, "But it's true, you can create a magical storage space and I know you're carrying that dictio...."

Twilight cut her off, "Okay. Fine. Yes, I carry a dictionary around all the time. Happy now?"

"Sure!" giving Twilight a wide grin, "So then I'm guessing you'll open this gift now?" Cadance lifted a distinctively book shaped object in her magic.

"Cadance!" Twilight yelled, "We're staying with my family for Hearth's Warming and I thought we agreed on this, no books."

"Oh you said it, I never necessarily agreed. But here I thought you always loved the books I gave you. The textbooks, spellbooks, fairy tales" Cadance leaned in closer, "The Kama Sutra, 101 Ways to Plea...."

"Cadance!" Twilight yelled again as her face turned a vivid red. "We're with my family, I'm not going to answer questions about why you bought me those books."

Cadance just smiled, "You do like them though, our time together did tell me that much."

Twilight still red faced, "Fine! Fine! I do like them." her tone softened, "But please not in front of my family."

Cadance softened her tone as well but her smile remained, "Open it please, Twilight."

Twilight resigned to her fate used her magic to pick up the wrapped book and unwrapped it to find.... "An album?"

Twilight began browsing its pages her eyes widening as she looked, "Cadance.... Is this?"

Cadanace nodded, "Every moment that was special for us, I did what I could to take pictures. I wanted you to have something that reminded of us even when our duties separate us by distance. We're able to see each other more easily now but I still wanted something of our time together. I hope that as we move forward together, we'll add more pictures, more memories. Do you like it?"

Twilight blinked a few tears away, "Cadance, thank you." as she placed a tender kiss on her marefriend's lips, "Thank you for a wonderful Hearth's Warming gift."
