Rarity prided herself on being able to keep secrets. Even if she was a self-labeled gossip, those tidbits tended to be juicy morsels that would have spread through the town like wildfire, regardless of her actions.
And, she had to admit to herself, sometimes it was just much too fun to see the rumors fly, and to observe the various reactions from friends and acquaintances alike.
This secret, however, she had guarded with a fervor that bordered on obsession.
Rainbow had deeply impressed her - she hadn't imagined that the pegasus not only had musical talent, but a far sappier heart than the brash speedster admitted to. But Rainbow had visited her, eager to escape the prying eyes of the Apple family, tartarus-bent on her goal.
To write Applejack a song.
It had all been Rainbow's work. Rarity had merely been a passive, but appreciative observer. A stray comment had given Rainbow the inspiration she needed, and she'd launched herself onto the task in the same way she devoted herself to her practice.
Nopony else knew what the song was. Not Twilight, not Fluttershy, and especially not Pinkie Pie. Bless the pink mare's heart, but something this sweet would have been near impossible for her to hide, even with a Pinkie Promise.
But now, it was finally time. It was Applejack and Rainbow Dash's first anniversary, and they'd organized a party at the barn. Everything had been set up, including a piano that stood off to the side - the one from the antique shop Rainbow had mentioned. Once the party was in full swing, Dash had made her way to the instrument, sat down, and cracked her hooves. She'd taken one look at the smiling Applejack, and had returned it with a grin that rivaled the sun in brightness.
She played.
And then she sang.
Come on everybody clap your hooves
Now you're looking good!
I'm gonna sing my song and you won't take long
We gotta do the twist and it goes like this!
Come on let's twist again like we did last summer
Yea, let's twist again like we did last year!
Do you remember when things were really hummin'
Yea, let's twist again, twistin' time is here!
Yeah round 'n around 'n up 'n down we go again
Oh baby make me know you love me so then!
Come on let's twist again like we did last summer
Yea, let's twist again, twistin' time is here!
Come on let's twist again like we did last summer
Yea, let's twist again like we did last year!
Do you remember when things were really hummin'
Yea, let's twist again, twistin' time is here!
Yeah round 'n around 'n up 'n down we go again
Oh baby make me know you love me so then
Come on let's twist again like we did last summer
Yea, let's twist again, twistin' time is here
Neither of the pair noticed when Rarity levitated her camera, and snapped a shot of them. Of the orange mare, dancing to the tune of her blue lover, both smiling with the pure joy of living and love.
