It was quite the sight to see. “Hey Scootaloo,” she said to the mare next to her. “You know why I decided to take you here, right?” “Of course. It's our five year anniversary of when we first started dating.” Scootaloo answered. “How the hell could I forget?” “Well, you’re half right.” the earth pony replied. “We’re also here because I wanted to ask you something very important.” “Ok. What is it?” Scootaloo asked. Applebloom looked around before answering. “I’ll have to ask you in private. I don't want to make a big deal out of it.” Scootaloo became curious, yet she shrugged it off. “Alright. As long as it is important.” The two mares sat down on the bench as the park around them showed off the vibrant colours of the flowers growing there. “So now that we are here,” Scootaloo started. “What is it you wanted to tell me?” Applebloom sighed as she began to speak. “Scoots, as we both know, we’ve been dating for five years now, and those last few years have been some of the happiest of my life. However, you may or may not remember this, but the reason we go together is because I almost committed suicide and you saved me. And at this moment of time, I think the stage of us being marefriends has now ended.” “Wait, wait,” Scootaloo interrupted. “Are you breaking up with me?” Applebloom chuckled to herself as she got off the bench and reached into her saddlebag. “Quite the opposite actually.” As she pulled something out, she bent down on her knees and held out a small, black box. Scootaloo’s eyes went wide as she just realized what was happening. “Scootaloo, will you marry me?” Applebloom asked, opening the box to reveal a small gold ring. Scootaloo’s eyes began to water as she stared at the mare. “Yes, yes, yes! Of course I will marry you! Why the hell would I say no?” “Because it would ruin the moment?” a voice from far away asked. Scootaloo and Applebloom looked over to see who spoke. It was a mare with a white coat, a pink and purple main, and a cutie mark similar to theirs, but instead with both a star and a music note in the center. “Sweetie Belle?” Scootaloo asked in shock. “The one and only,” Sweetie joked, causing Applebloom to let out a small chuckle. “How have you girls been?” “Pretty good,” Applebloom said. “I'll take it you heard my proposal to Scootaloo?” “Of course I heard you,” Sweetie Belle answered. “I had no idea you two were dating. How long have you been together?” “It's actually our five year anniversary today,” Scootaloo replied. “However, the reason we started dating is really shocking. At least, you might think that.” Applebloom tapped on the pegasus’s shoulder. “Scootaloo, I don't really want to tell Sweetie Belle about how we got together. It's mostly a thing I like to keep to myself.” “Aw, come on Applebloom,” Scootaloo said back. “Sweetie has to know! We could just at least tell her about the important things and not go into any details. Would that be better?” The earth pony sighed as she nodded her head. “Ok, but I'm telling the story just in case.” “Ok.” The two looked back at the unicorn, who was quietly waiting for them to start their story. “Alright,” Applebloom began. “So our relationship started out in a very interesting way.” One Brief Story Later “And then she spent the rest of the night listening to me talk. Ever since then, we've been hanging out a lot more and continued to let our relationship get better.” Sweetie Belle stared at the two of them for to few seconds before finally speaking again. “Well, I had no idea you two love each other that much. I never thought of you two getting together in the first place.” “It was a bit weird calling each other marefriends at first, but after a while we got used to it and eventually ended up where we are now.” Scootaloo said before locking her lips together with Applebloom, sharing a small kiss. “Well I guess I'll leave you two alone.” Sweetie Belle said. “I have a lot of things to get done today. How long will you two be in Canterlot?” “For around two or three more days.” Applebloom answered. “”Oh, I have a performance in two days here! Maybe I could try and get you girls V.I.P. seats.” the unicorn said excitedly. “That would be awesome!” Scootaloo replied. “We would love to hear you sing.” “I’ll see what I can do. In the meantime, you two enjoy your time here. I need to get going. Besides, I think you two have something more important to deal with.” “Alright,” Applebloom said. “It was nice seeing you Sweetie Belle.” “Yeah,” Scootaloo added. “We’ll see soon.” “Ok, bye girls.” Sweetie said as she hugged the two other ponies before leaving the area. “So,” Applebloom said to her partner. “Is it a yes or a no?” Scootaloo smirked at her, eyelids half closed. She got in her face, and locked their lips in a deep kiss. “I think you know the answer.”
