Twilight Sparkle opened the door to find Pinkie Pie holding a small pink present wrapped in a purple bow.
"Happy fifty-three-days-from-your-birthday-day!" said Pinkie, pushing past Twilight into the castle foyer.
"That's a pretty strange occasion," said Twilight, with a smile. "But I appreciate the thought, and it's always great to see you."
Pinkie hoofed Twilight the present. Opening it, she found a gold watch. "This looks expensive, Pinkie! But why a watch?"
"Well, I was telling Rarity what a special friend you are and I wanted to know how I could show you just what you mean to me, and she said 'there's no present like the time' so I got you this!" said Pinkie, repeatedly tapping one hoof against the crystal flooring.
"I think she meant, 'there's no time like the present'," said Twilight.
Pinkie gasped. "Oh! In that case," she said, and kissed Twilight right on the lips.
