Seeking escape from a painful situation, Princess Twilight decides to take a break from Equestria to visit her friend, Sunset Shimmer, in the human world.

When Twilight Sparkle was just a kid, her best friend was a girl named Sunset Shimmer. Though their friendship had a bit of a rocky start, they quickly became inseparable, no matter how much everyone thought of them as ‘weird’. They were there for each other.

Were.

Years after the tragic accident that tore them apart, Twilight is determined to move on from her loss, and she sets off on an independent research project to investigate the strange happenings at Canterlot High. Little does she know that she will soon come face to face with what appears to be a literal ghost from her past.

A sequel to my other story. I Need You

Sunset and Twilight had never experienced this before. Twilight had just returned to the human world to meet Sunset again, and Twilight wanted to share something special with Sunset, a kiss.

Big thanks to Script for being the editor for this story.

Twilight Sparkle knows they’re lucky, and she’s not stupid. All her human counterpart wants is to try and understand how the magic works. But she’s in love, and as logical as she tries to be, she can’t handle a human version of herself being around her girlfriend Sunset all of the times she can’t be.

7/7/2016: Now with cover art designed by the very generous Novel-Idea! Thank you so much!

Twilight asks Sunset to help her out with an experiment of hers.

This story is a sequel to The Calming Christmas Flame

On a cold snowy Christmas night, the question finally came out and Twilight accepted. But that joyous moment of certainty was not the last moment of their lives. Many years lie ahead and marriage is not a free ticket to perfection. With their friends by their side, the new couple fights to steer clear of the typical bout of relationship problems. Like putting the toilet paper roll on backwards...

At least there's the honeymoon, right?

NOTES
1. Please be sure to watch all the Equestria Girls movies, as this does contain spoilery material otherwise.
2. This is the sequel to The Calming Christmas Flame. I'll admit V-Day Fire was just a tease. ;)
3. The story's primary Twilight is the one from the human world, NOT from the pony world.
4. Dog Spike is a dog. He doesn't talk in this story.
5. Please understand that this is rated Teen, not Mature. There will be no explicit scenes.
6. I started this back in March. Love won. Does that make me a hipster? (I kid.)

Traveling back to Equestria for summer vacation seemed like the best idea ever. However Sunset Shimmer's home brings back memories and thoughts that haven't surfaced since her reformation. Forgiveness is never easy especially when it comes to forgiving oneself. That coupled with a deadly changeling plot against Princess Twilight has Sunset running in circles to protect her friends and figure herself out.

Extra Tags: Chrysalis, Changelings, Flash Sentry (I'm so sorry).
This may be subjected to change as the story progresses.

Extra side note: the cover art for this story was done by me
Extra Extra side note: To everyone who has faved and liked thank you so much!
Final Side Note: I've edited the spacing and scene transitions so it's less of an eye sore.

MUST READ: So an awesome friend of mine has started working on an animation for this story. He has a rough cut of the first scene in the first chapter. Check it out here and leave some feedback!
Summer Sunset Chapter 1 Animation Test

Proof Read/edited by: 1DATMLP

A few weeks after the return from her second visit to Canterlot High, when the Princess of Friendship runs out of royal duties and busy work, she needs to find something to pass the time while her friends go about their busy schedules. Deciding to travel back through the portal to Canterlot High, she meets up with her parallel, human friends. However, when Pinkie decides to host another slumber party at her place, Sunset Shimmer begins acting differently towards the others.
Maybe whatever she is hiding she doesn't fully understand herself.

I almost forgot:
- The artwork belongs to me so don't worry
- and you should all check out this page where you see a very well written look into Sunset Shimmer's cutie mark. It helped inspire the description in this story. (Past Analysis - Tumblr)

Sunset Shimmer has been living a reformed life for quite some time now. Whether by fate or random chance, she wound up in a serious relationship with the Twilight of the human world. She's content with where she is and has never been happier to be accepted and loved. In fact, she hopes that this Christmas will give her the opportunity to express how deeply she feels for Twilight.

NOTES
1. Sunlight fluff for the holidays.
2. Third consecutive year for me producing a Christmas special!
3. Post Rainbow Rocks. Featuring EqG-world Twilight. I could have written volumes to explain backstory but c'mon. It's a fluff-shot.
