	Twilight and Flash were led to a small booth. They sat across from each other. The waitress handed them their menus. "Okay, so I'm Cherry, and I will be your waitress for tonight. Can I get any drinks for you?" Cherry asked.
"Diet Coke," Flash and Twilight replied in union. Cherry wrote this down on a pad and left. Flash looked at Twilight awkwardly.
"Okay, so... I guess this is a date," Flash started. Twilight nodded.
"Honestly, I think it will... go terrible," Twilight stated. Flash laughed.
"Why would you think that?" He asked.
"Oh, I don't know. Maybe because all year long we've done nothing but say hi to each other in the halls, or throw each other on the ground, nearly kissing. You have to admit, It's pretty bad," Twilight explained. Flash nodded, chuckling.
"Well, when you put it that way, we sound like idiots, who don't know how to treat each other," Flash said. "You know? How come we've never done this before? Go on a date, I mean?"
"Um... probably because you never had the guts to ask me. I mean, I obviously can't do it, I'm the girl of this relationship," Twilight explained. Flash laughed again.
"You're funny, you know that?" He inquired. Twilight laughed, then became stupid-serious.
"Why yes," She flipped her hair, "I did." They both burst into laughter, Cherry shrugging at it as she set their drinks down on the table.
The night pretty much went on like this. There conversations never went in the awkward direction, Twilight pretty much led the whole thing, but neither of them minded. They even started to debate whether the waitress's hair was scarlet or cinnamon red.
They ordered food, ate it, continued conversation, and that's all they did. It didn't go bad, both liked the way it worked out. Flash especially because his dating skills were a lot worse than he remembered with Sunset Shimmer.
