Sunset drove in to the school parking lot, quickly searching for a parking spot. Once she found one, she pulled her car in and shut it off. Once free from gripping the steering wheel, she leaned back in her seat and looked towards the school building. A frown formed on her face as she looked from the school to herself in the rear view mirror. Ever since the Fall Formal incident, Sunset tried her best to avoid formal events at the school. Nothing but painful memories emerged when she saw everyone dressed up in suits and dresses, but she wanted tonight to be an exception. It was the biggest dance of the year, replacing the Fall Formal after her she-demon chaos ruined it. Sunset looked away from the mirror to back at the school, and a confident smile appeared on her face. She wasn't going to let past mistakes ruin her night, especially this night.
Sunset finally opened the door to her vehicle, and slowly climbed out, trying her best not to mess up her fancy red dress that Rarity made for her. After taking a deep breath, Sunset walked towards the entrance to the school. She was greeted by one of her classmates taking names in a book. Once she was checked off, she gave him a smile before walking in. She passed a few people in the hallway, before making her way into the gym, the main room for the dance. When she walked in, she took in the sites. The whole room was decorated with flashy lights, balloons, and situated to have a dancefloor in the middle. Not to mention the band on the stage, already playing music. Sunset looked around for her friends, and once she spotted them, she made her way over.
Over at the Dazzlings house, Adagio was standing close to the door, waiting to leave. She impatiently looked towards the clock on the wall, and gave a loud sigh when she noticed what time it was getting.
"Aria! Sonata! Hurry up, we're going to be late!" she yelled through the house.
Aria emerged from around the corner, sporting her usual don't care face. "Why are we even going to this stupid dance?"
"*sigh*Because Aria, Sunset asked the school to invite us, and we're not about to turn her invitation down."
Aria crossed her arms and looked away. "Whatever..."
"I'm coming!" Sonata shouted, quickly dashing down the stairs as quickly as she could in a dress. She stopped and panted when she joined the other two. "I'm ready."
Adagio and Aria both rolled their eyes as they walked out of the house, with their little blue friend following closely behind.
They all climbed into their shared car, and sped off towards the school. Since they were going faster then they were supposed to, it didn't take long for them to make it to the school. Once parked and out of their vehicle, the three girls slowly walked towards the school, Adagio in the front, while the other two walked behind. Since their failed attempt at getting magic, the sirens had only been back to the school twice, both because of Sunset. The first reason was to convince the school body that they weren't evil anymore, some gave them a second chance, some didn't. The second reason was to meet the Shadowbolts, who to the Dazzlings, just felt like meeting a second version of the Rainbooms.
When they made it to the door, the guy taking names gave them one look, and started shaking in his place. "T-The D-Dazzlings?"
"Yes, you can mark us off," Adagio replied.
"A-Alright M-Miss D-Dazzle, enjoy the p-party," he said, ushering with his hand inside.
The three sirens walked past him and into the building. As they walked down the halls, the few people in them turned to look towards them, some giving looks of confusion, while others weren't to pleased to see them. None of them paid any attention to them, only focusing on making it to the main room. Once inside, Adagio looked around to find Sunset, since she was really the only reason she was there. Once she spotted the familiar fiery hair, she walked over to her, with the other two sirens in tow.
"Hello Sunset," Adagio said, standing behind the girl as she stood among her friends.
Sunset gave a small jump at the sound of her voice, quickly turning to face her, placing a hand on her chest. "Adagio, you startled me."
Adagio gave a short laugh before speaking again. "You should be used to it by now Sunshine." She walked up beside of her and joined the group, saying hello to the other girls.
Now that Adagio was there, Sunset could finally start to actually enjoy the party, since Adagio was really the only reason for her want to be there. Sure she wanted to see her friends, but Sunset wanted to spend her night with the girl she was currently in love with. Yes, Sunset had a crush on Adagio, a rather large one at that. Despite having plenty of opportunities to tell her, Sunset never knew how to go about doing the deed.
After a few minutes of talking, the group started to disperse, some moving to the dance floor, while others moved to other attractions around the place. This just left Sunset with the three sirens, and the situation gave Sunset a idea.
"Hey Adagio," she said, making Adagio turn to her. "...Wanna dance?"
Adagio let her infamous smirk appear on her face before replying. "I'd love too."
She took hold of Sunset's hand, leading her out to the dance floor. The music was slowed down, giving the dancers a peaceful tune to dance to. Adagio held her hand up with Sunset's, and wrapped her arm around the girl, pulling her forward. Sunset's face expressed no amount of embarrassment, but on the inside, she was blushing like crazy. They both moved to the sound of the music, and Sunset was surprised at how well Adagio could dance.
"I see Octavia's cello playing is as good as ever," Adagio stated, looking at the girl on the stage, then back to Sunset.
"She's definitely very talented," Sunset replied. "I didn't know you could dance this well."
Adagio gave small laugh before pulling Sunset closer. "I'm full of surprises," she whispered in a sultry tone right in her ear, sending goosebumps down Sunset's back. "You look beautiful tonight," she whispered again.
"Thank you," Sunset responded, starting to blush a little.
"I really mean it. You just might be the most beautiful girl in the room, minus yours truly," she continued to whisper right in Sunset's ear. "Your long flowing hair, your cute face, and your dress that compliments your body nicely."
Now Sunset was noticeably blushing, her cheeks burning bright red. When Adagio pulled away from her, Sunset hoped she wouldn't notice, but she would have to be blind not too.
Adagio noticed her blush, making her smile at how cute she was being. When Sunset turned her head to look away, presumably to hide her blush, Adagio brought a hand up and turn her back to look at her. Before Adagio could advance forward, the music stopped, and everyone was turning back to the musicians and clapping for them. The two girls joined in, since Sunset wanted to get rid of her blush, and because Adagio actually enjoyed the cello music. When the clapping died down, the two girls moved towards the edge of the crowd, trying to get away from the large mass. Once in a spot of considerable space, Sunset looked around to see where everyone else was. She didn't really find any of her group, or Sonata and Aria, but she did see the Shadowbolts, at least part of their group standing off to the side.
Now that they were alone, well more alone then where they used to be, Sunset decided it was now or never. She took a deep, but quiet breath, then turned to the siren.
"Adagio."
"Hm," she replied.
"I need to tell you something...something I've should've said awhile ago."
Adagio fully turned to her, looking her deep in the eyes. "What is it Sunny?"
Sunset went to speak, but nothing came out. 'Damn it, this shouldn't be hard!' she thought in her head. 'Why did she have to call me that, it didn't help!' "I...I...I'll be right back," she said, before speeding off towards the bathroom.
Adagio watched her quickly walk away, shaking her head and giving a smile, before following after her.
Once Sunset was in the bathroom, she slammed her hands on the sink top, thankful that no one else was in there. 'Come one Sunset! Why couldn't you just tell her! Your a straight A student, you was Celestia's pupil, and you've stopped evil more than once, so why can't you just tell her how you feel!' she screamed in her head.
"I doubt coming in here was what you really wanted to tell me," Adagio said as she leaned against the wall behind her, making Sunset quickly turn around. "Although, I have a good guess at what you tried to tell me."
"Adagio, I-" Sunset started to speak, but was stopped by Adagio placing a finger on her mouth.
"Shhhh, I already know, and I have something to tell you as well," she said, moving closer to her. "I love you too."
Sunset stood there, her heart beating twice as fast. She couldn't believe what she just heard, but before her brain had the chance to process it, Adagio leaned forward and kissed her. Sunset's eyes went wide as she felt Adagio's soft lips press against her own. She slowly closed her eyes, bringing her arms up and pulling Adagio closer. They both stood there, kissing each other for several seconds, before Adagio pulled away just as gracefully as she advanced.
"Adagio...I...I love you so much," Sunset stated to her, before pulling her in for another kiss. Adagio smiled into the kiss, before licking her lips for entrance. Sunset opened her mouth, letting Adagio's tongue into her domain. Sunset gave a small moan as their tongues rubbed together. After a couple minutes of making out, the two of them pulled away, a spit trail being left behind.
Adagio gave a small cute laugh, "Your just as good at kissing as I thought you'd be."
Now it was Sunset's turn to giggle, "So are you."
The two of them moved in for a hug, each of them holding each other tightly. When they parted, they kissed one more time, before walking out and rejoining the action outside.
