Twilight, Starlight, and Trixie are staying at Rarity's shop to keep away from Spike. Twilight's sitting on Rarity's couch to relax. "Thanks for letting stay for a week, Rarity.", she said.

"No problem, Twilight.", Rarity said. "So, why did you want to spend the night here again? You never spent the night here with me before."

Twilight frowned angrily. "I needed to get away from Spike, Rarity.", she snarled. "I told you what I wrote on that letter before me, Starlight, and Trixie left the castle. When the whole week with you is done, he has to face the truth towards me."

"Yeah, but Spike is so sweet and kind.", Rarity said. "Did you really think he was lying to you when he disappeared at night?"

"Yes, I tried my hardest to have him tell me the truth, I just... I needed a break from, because it's way too much for me.", Twilight said.

"I understand, Twilight.", Rarity said. "Starlight and Trixie must be warm and cozy on that mattress I brought them."

"Yeah, they're cute when they snuggle together.", Twilight said. "You know, where will I sleep tonight?"

"You can sleep in my bed for the week, Twilight.", Rarity said. "Me and Sweetie Belle will share her bed, hopefully she doesn't get grumpy when I get too close to her while I'm in bed with her. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to get ready for bed." Rarity trotted upstairs to her dressing room.

Starlight came to see Twilight. She was upset. "Twilight, I'm not happy here.", she snorted. "I want to go back to the castle."

"I'm sorry, Starlight, but we have to.", Twilight said. "Besides, Rarity's our friend, she can do anything for us."

"But, I want to, Twilight.", Starlight snorted again. "I can't stay here for long and I'm bored. Trixie's also bored. The reason why we're staying in this shop, because you needed to be away from Spike."

"Starlight, I done this before, me and my friends always leave Spike at my place, that way he's safe.", Twilight said. "And I want to be safe away from him for a while, because I feel like I'm starting to lose his trust. I'm sorry, Starlight, but you have to deal with this place."

"But, I don't understand why you're starting to lose his trust.", Starlight complained.

"Because, I feel like what he told me were lies.", Twilight snarled. "I wrote him a note on my bedroom door saying that I have to be away from him for a while, so that way he can think about what he has done and he'll have a chance to reflect on his ways to make it all up."

"Twilight, I left my spell book at the castle.", Starlight growled. "Can I at least go back to the castle to get it?"

"No, Starlight, because Spike's there.", Twilight said. "You can use my book from now on until our week with Rarity is over. Now, quit complaining and go back to bed."

"Fine.", Starlight groaned as she went back to where she was sleeping with Trixie.
