Crash and Twilight talked for a while. Their usual hour was spent with bland banter over things the other surprisingly knew. As much as it looked as if Twilight had fun, Crash always suspected it was a joke. She didn't push the thought, but she didn't shut it up.
While Crash was dealing with trust issues, Twilight was over analyzing and worrying. She was worried she was being too nice, seeming too excited, wondering if she should push on Crash's obvious life problems.
Though, both could agree they liked the other in some way. Even if they suspected the other didn't like them. 
Twilight finally decided to stand up over her worries, "Why did you even want to talk to me? Don't you have friends?" She tried to keep her face from morphing into worry, but it didn't exactly work. 
Crash didn't answer for a few seconds. Though this made Twilight worry, she got a reasonable explanation for why. Crash shrugged, "Never met anyone who likes Daring Do. Besides, you're fun to talk to."
Crash didn't think much of it, though Twilight did. She was so relieved Crash actually didn't hate her or dislike her. She jumped at the sudden voice. "Alright, you're turn," Crash smirked. 
"Huh?" Twilight asked. 
"Why'd you agree?"
The same seconds of silence repeated, though it was suspected. The biggest difference was that the two stared at each other. Twilight often forgot the question while she analyzed Crash's features. No matter what expression Crash had, Twilight always had her mind set on the angst behind it. 
Suddenly she turned away and answered, "Well, it'd be kind of rude to turn you down, right?" She couldn't bring herself to see the disappointed expression. Abruptly, she said what she had wanted to say the whole time out of guilt. "But I've had fun. Maybe we could do it again tomorrow?" 
She winced as she mentally face palmed. How stupid was she? She made it sound like a date! Especially when she knew Crash would probably make fun of her for it. And she knew how stupid it was, it was just a friendly get together and she made it sound like a date!
"Sure." She turned to the voice and saw the smile on Crash's face. She couldn't help but smile slightly to herself and blush as she readjusted her glasses. 
She followed Crash with her eyes as the girl stood up, a smirk on her face and phone in hand. The phone displayed the time, stating that their usual hour was up. 
Twilight's worry shot through the roof as she visibly swallowed. "C-can't I just call my brother? You like riding fast anyways. Why would you let me bother that?" She knew her pleas would mean nothing as the smirk didn't fade. A cyan hand was extended to her and she sighed as she took it. 
"Would be kind of rude to make him drive all the way back here, right?" Crash smirked. Twilight just groaned at the girls harsh truth. Her smirk turned to a playful smile as she started down the bleachers, taking the seats instead of the steps. 
Twilight attempted to sigh away her worry as she walked over to the steps and walked down those. She knew the worry that shook her legs would make her terrified to take another step down the seats. 
Once she was at the bottom, Crash smiled to her. She had to push it, her worry started consuming her now. "Really. My brother would be fine with it." 
"C'mon, are you that scared of a motorbike?" Crash asked, stuffing her hands in her pockets. 
"Yes! A car is a lot safer with balance and actual safety! At least a car has walls!" Twilight's worry was visible as her mind raced with reassuring science. Of course, cars are more likely to hit other cars, and the town was relatively safe. But she remembered riding a motorcycle with her dad when she was little and she hated it. 
Crash rolled her eyes and reached in her pocket. She tried to make her face morph into boredom instead of annoyance, it didn't really work. "Fine, if you really don't want to, call him." She extended her phone to Twilight. 
The guilt rose up in Twilight's throat as she stared at the phone. The anxiety of using another persons phone and the anxiety of annoying her brother was eating at her stomach. She glanced up at Crash and saw the annoyance. 
She sighed and pushed the phone back towards Crash. "It's fine, I trust you. If you can drive well with going fast, you'll be even safer going slower."
Twilight noticed the smile show up on Crash's face. Her shoulders bounced up and she stopped slouching. Her smile turned to a cocky smirk as she shoved her phone back in her pocket and started walking towards the parking lot. 
As they walked, Twilight couldn't help but attempt at more security. "How long have you rode a motorcycle?" 
"Since I was fourteen," Crash answered nonchalantly. 
"You need to be sixteen to have a permit!" 
"I got held back a year, I'm sixteen." 
"How long on the road?" Twilight asked nervously. 
"A year, but it's fine. I got more experience than your brother so it's fine," Crash smirked. Twilight smiled slightly and rolled her eyes. 
Soon, Crash was on the bike, extending the helmet to Twilight. Twilight nervously took it and latched it on. She awkwardly got on the bike. Though she was embarrassed about it, she wrapped her arms lightly around Crash's waist. She winced more once she felt the girl tense underneath her, a blush covered her face. 
Though she couldn't see the smile on Crash's face. Sure, Crash was already attached to the little nerd, but having this much contact from a person she had a bit of attraction to was great! Her smile didn't fade like usual as she raced out of the parking lot. 
She went fast at first, out of habit and out of happiness that she had Twilight's arms around her. She noticed and immediately slowed down, noticing Twilight's grip got much tighter. She muttered, "Sorry," even if she knew Twilight couldn't hear it. 
Soon enough, she felt the helmet pick up off her back and look around. And just as fast as it got up off of her back, it laid back down. She could tell Twilight was relaxing by the way her arms stopped getting so tight. 
Of course, Crash was a jerk and smirked as she stopped at a red light. She saw the light go green and raced off. She heard the high pitched scream and felt her stomach shrink with Twilight's grip. A laugh quickly left her mouth. 
"Sorry!" She yelled over the sound around them, hoping Twilight could hear her. 
About a minute before she turned into the neighborhood, Twilight relaxed again, though her guard wasn't down. She felt Twilight's arm lift off her waist and looked to where it pointed. Crash rolled her eyes, Twilight's new house was the biggest in the neighborhood. 
She was even more disgusted with the girls wealth as she saw two high-end cars in the garage. The bike cut off and the contact at her waist disappeared. She looked over to her left and saw the annoyed face of Twilight removing the helmet. 
Instantly, a hand hit her arm. Quickly followed by, "Don't do that!" 
"Bahahahaha!" She laughed. "Sorry! I couldn't resist!" A hand hit her arm playfully again. 
Twilight rolled her eyes. "Just don't do that again." She instantly shut up, unfortunately letting the idea that they'd do that again set in. 
"You'd really ride with me again?" Crash asked almost too eagerly, but she stopped caring. Twilight wouldn't pick at her like she would her. She heard the groan followed by a nod. 
"It wasn't awful," Twilight stated and gave Crash the helmet. "Besides, it's easier than getting my brother out there every time we hang out." 
Crash's excitement went through the roof. But she actually contained it this time, her anticipation sky rocketed, knowing she'd be too happy to go slow. "Well, see ya tomorrow, Twi." 
Twilight blushed at the nickname but readjusted her glasses anyways. "See you tomorrow, Rainbow." 
"Crash." 
"I like Rainbow better," Twilight said as she walked over to her door. Crash smiled as she raced out of the driveway. "Be safe!" Twilight yelled, scared at the speed the girl left with. 
The second she stepped in the door, she was smothered by her parents in a hug. "Oh! It's okay Twily!" Her mother said as her grip got tighter. They soon let go of her and she readjusted her glasses. 
"Huh?" Twilight asked. 
"We're so proud of you!" Her father smiled happily. 
Her mother clasped her hands together, "And just so you know, we don't judge you for a thing." Their smiles were radiant as their words seemed as proud as when she got top in her class at Crystal Elementary.
She suddenly understood what was going on. The motorbike, the drive home, the coming home later than normal. She groaned as she pinched the bridge of her nose. "Mom, dad. I'm not dating her." 
Their radiance disappeared. "Huh?" Her father asked, her mother seemed so hurt. 
"We're just friends!" Twilight said, staring at both of them. "She drove me home because we hung out at the school. I didn't feel like calling Shining to come pick me up so I had her drive me. She just happens to own a motorcycle!"
"Oh," her mother said. Her hurt expression accompanied by the slouched shoulders made her seem so regretful. But a smile plastered itself on her face. "Oh! We're so sorry sweetie!" 
"Huh," her father said bluntly. He was so sure his daughter was off dating some motorbike chick in the movies who the father always hated. He was ready to meet this mystery, cyan girl and seem protective of his little girl. He was more than disappointed. 
Twilight Velvet smiled nervously and started to walk off, "Well, dinner'll be ready in a bit." 
Night Light followed with a nervous laughter. "Yes, um, I'll just go help your mother." The two raced into the kitchen, leaving Twilight annoyed at them and herself. She sighed and walked up to her room, debating the recent situation. 
How could she blame them? She'll probably think the same thing with her child. Besides, how could she get so mad at them for the idea? Was the idea that putrid? 
She sighed, she didn't know. And she definently didn't want to debate her attraction to Crash. Sure, the girl was friendly, had a silly appeal to her, and interested Twilight to the high heavens, but could Twilight ever really like Crash? 
She shook her head and mentally finalized it. She wouldn't think about. If she thought about it, she'd end up believing she liked Crash and would make it obvious she did when she really didn't and she would attempt to get closer to Crash. She'd also over-analyze every movement Crash made around her. She did not want to deal with that, so she forced herself to forget it. 
It worked pretty easily. 



The next two weeks were some of the most fun for Twilight. She got her new best friend Fluttershy during school hours, and her friend Crash after school hours. 
Of course, she felt bad wanting to see Fluttershy over Crash, but she didn't question it much. And she only felt worse when she'd only want to hang around Pinkie, Rarity, and Fluttershy over Crash. 
But every time she thought that, she'd follow Crash to some super secret school hiding spot and have the best time. She concluded that her want for her nice friends was simple anxiety over talking to Crash. 
But of course, then she'd question her rising appeal for Crash. She always felt stupid for it, especially since her feelings for Fluttershy took a turn for platonic. She never felt platonic around Crash. 
The hiding places reminded her of dates, the two of them alone reminded her of dates, and the getting lost in conversation reminded her of dates!
She always tried to make it disappear with thinking of Fluttershy. She'd feel much better if she liked Fluttershy over Crash. At least then she'd have a visible no chance. Of course, she had no chance with Crash, but every second with the girl alone kept her mind pinned on the idea. She hated it. 
She kept trying to get lost in Fluttershy's looks or her conversation. It never lasted more than a minute. But she had bigger problems than figuring through her sudden Crash-appeal at the moment. The fact that her friends were starting to notice. 
"You alright, darling?" Rarity asked her before taking a sip of apple juice. Meanwhile, Pinkie chugged down a whole can of soda from the high-priced vending machine. 
Twilight was brought out of her trance with a sudden and nervous nod. It was the most unconvincing thing the girls could have seen. 
"Are you sure?" Fluttershy jumped in, worry getting the better of her. "You've been spacing out a lot lately." She gasped. "Did something bad happen?"
Twilight smiled at her, "No, nothing happened. I'm fine guys, don't worry." Her smile and words were reassuring, but she knew the two wouldn't believe her. They'd simply ignore their worries until it got serious. 
"Alright then," Rarity beamed. "So, since it's so close to the dance. I think we need to discuss some things." She placed her chin on her hands which were held up by her elbows. A smug look sat on her face. 
Pinkie raised her hand. "Oooh, oooooh! I got all the things you requested for!" She said loudly and happily. She quickly got out a notepad and flipped through the pages. She stopped on one and squinted, bringing the notepad to her nose as she looked through it. She pulled away, pointing at a certain spot. "Except for the super-cool-local-celebrity DJ. We didn't have the budget, so we're paying Vinyl twenty bucks to do it." 
A smile plastered on her face. It didn't change with Rarity's obvious disappointment. A sigh escaped her mouth, "It'll have to do. Thank you for everything else, Pinkie Pie." 
"You're welcome!" Pinkie saluted. 
Rarity smiled at her adorably silly nature. "Well, since that's settled, and the dresses are as well. The only thing left is dates." 
Twilight and Fluttershy froze, knowing the other two would have dates and they wouldn't. Rarity was extremely judgemental, she'd practically force them to go with a total stranger for looks. 
"I got one!" Pinkie smiled happily. The three were shocked and simply stared at her, waiting for her to reveal who. 
After the moments of silence, they knew they weren't getting an answer that way. Rarity rolled her eyes, "Who is it darling?" 
"Weeeeeeell!" Pinkie started bombastically. She pulled away from her seat and back with the word. "It all started over the weekend."
"Here we go," Twilight smiled to Fluttershy, who smiled back. Twilight cursed herself, she didn't even notice how pretty Fluttershy was anymore! Why was everything she thought so platonic?
"I was going to the bakery ran by Ditzy's parents, that's when I saw Cheese!" Pinkie brought the attention back to her. Once everyone -even Octavia, Vinyl, and Coloratura- was paying attention, she continued. "He seemed off, so I asked him and he made up some obvious excuse and raced out.
"I was like 'whaaaaaat?'. I moped all the way to the Cakes place since I felt like my best friend was hiding something!" Her hair dropped to flat and she slouched, crossing her arms and puffing out her cheeks angrily. Rarity simply giggled while Octavia took a picture of the adorable expression. 
Suddenly, her hair poofed back to life, along with her. "Then! Once I walked into the Cakes' place! There was this huge banner! There were tables filled with cupcakes and sweets!" She put her hand next to her mouth and whispered, "There was even some alcohol! Don't tell the cakes I told you!" Fluttershy giggled. 
Pinkie backed away, continuing her story. "Confetti shot everywhere! Streamers were thrown around, it was like my tenth b-day all over again!" Her smile was so radiant, her eyes were the dreamiest they had ever been as she remembered the moment. 
She sighed dreamily, "Then! That's when Cheese Sandwich himself walked out of the kitchen with a rose! I finally read the banner and understood what was happening... It was a prom-posal!" 
"And of course you said yes," Rarity smiled happily. Pinkie Pie nodded, her smile even brighter than Rarity's. 
Fluttershy clapped quietly and smiled. "Oh Pinkie! I'm so happy for you! Did you tell Cheese what you wanted?" Her eyes sparkled with curiosity, as did her posture. 
Pinkie shook her head with a smile. "He guessed my perfect proposal! He's amazing! So now, we get to spend a whole night together! Partying too! It's wonderful!" 
"But wasn't Cheese already you're boyfriend?" Twilight asked. Pinkie giggled nervously and rubbed the back of her neck. 
"Not exactly," she said nervously. 
The three girls attention was shot as they yelled "What!?" Pinkie Pie had never stopped mentioning Cheese Sandwich, even when he was around she stated how much she loved his company. They always thought the two were together. 
"But you two are always together!" Fluttershy said loudly, which wasn't very loud. 
"And you never shut up about him, you seem in love darling," Rarity stated, confusion morphed into her face as her eyebrows furrowed. 
"And you two are best friends," Twilight mentioned, confusion morphing her face as well. Pinkie giggled. "What's so funny?" Twilight asked, even more confused. 
"If best friends make a couple, than you and Fluttershy would be dating, silly," Pinkie Pie smiled. Fluttershy and Twilight's faces exploded into blush. 
"We're definently not together!" Twilight shouted, worry consuming her face. She hated how disgusted she seemed to be with the idea, but she wanted to make it clear. 
Rarity chuckled, "No one said you were darling. But by that reaction, I'd call it a crush." Fluttershy hid her face behind her sleeves and her hair. Twilight and Pinkie Pie felt awful. 
"Well, I definitely don't have a crush on her."
"You sure, darling?"
"I'm sure!" Twilight crossed her arms. 
"Alright," Rarity chuckled again. She turned her attention to the pink fluff ball next to her. "But back to you Pinkie. Why weren't you and Cheese dating?"
Pinkie shook her head, snapping her attention from Fluttershy. "Oh yeah!" She smiled. "We told each other we liked each other, but we didn't feel like dating. We didn't see each other a lot, so we wanted to wait until we liked each other more!" 
"Aww!" Fluttershy came out of her shy, embarrassed state. She smiled so sweetly. "That's adorable, Pinkie! But you two are dating now, right?" 
Pinkie shrugged. Then she sighed and placed her chin to the table. "I sure hope so, we see each other every day! But I want him to ask." 
"Good for you, but I have no doubt in my mind that he'll ask you the night of the dance," Rarity smiled. Then, her mind hit another topic so she could ramble. "I really don't understand why we're having a dance in the fall. Fall Formal is a cute name, but the occasion really means nothing." 
"Oh, the school wanted to give the students as much as possible," Twilight said bluntly. Once everyone stared at her, she knew they wanted her to explain. "Crystal Prep gets two field trips a year while this one gets two for all four years. They wanted to make up for it."
"How do you know?" Rarity asked. 
Twilight shrugged, "Guess. A logical one though."
A memory flashed through Rarity's mind and she winced as it ended. Suddenly, she sighed, deciding it best to tell her friends. She looked up at the three and saw their faces of worry. She didn't even give them the chance to ask. "A boy tried to ask me to prom today."
Twilight focused on the 'tried', but before she could question it, Pinkie Pie started to congratulate her. "That's awesome Rare! Who is it?" Pinkie shouted. Fluttershy and Twilight saw the hesitance on her face. 
She rolled her eyes, "Blueblood." Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy's faces morphed into disgust, while Twilight was just confused. 
"Who's Blueblood?" She asked, guessing the three thought she knew who that was. 
"A jerk," Fluttershy said bluntly. Twilight was shocked, the girl never usually addressed anyone in such a rude manner. Well, it was rude for her vocabulary. 
Pinkie stepped in to help. "He's a big old self-centered meanie! He's so rich he should be going to Crystal Prep, but he went to Canterlot High to gloat and get the highest scores." 
"He also thinks he's so entitled that he can get any girl he wants without lifting a finger, he isn't even nice," Rarity pouted. Twilight nodded, even if her mind was running with a girl that would fit in a super-cute situation. Blueblood would be nice to no other girl but her, but Twilight couldn't pick a girl that would fit. 
"Please tell me you didn't say yes," Fluttershy pleaded. 
"Oh heavens no!" Rarity replied. Pinkie and Fluttershy instantly let out a sigh of relief. "But, he was very... pushy. He wouldn't let me go to class if I didn't say yes." 
"Creep!" Fluttershy said behind her sleeve. Twilight was the only one who could hear, but she focused back on Rarity. 
"What happened?" Pinkie Pie bounced. 
Rarity sighed again. "Well, someone... helped me get rid of him. They told him to leave me alone and that a lady as nice as myself didn't deserve the likes of him." Each of the three were astonished. They assumed this must've been the boy who she allowed to take her to the dance. 
"Who! Who! Who!" Pinkie begged. 
Rarity sighed. "Did he ask you to the dance?" Pinkie pushed her questions further. Rarity shook her head. 
The girl's blue eyes stuck to her lap as the name rolled off her tongue. "It was Applejack." Twilight noticed that her eyes briefly looked over at Coloratura. Once she saw that the girl didn't overhear, she sighed in relief. 
Rarity grabbed her applejuice like it was her savior, drinking from it, even when there was nothing left. "You mean that punk-rock chick that's always flirting with you?" Pinkie Pie asked. Rarity spat out the straw and stared at her. 
"She does not flirt with me! She's just picking on me for that putrid Crash!" Rarity said rudely. Her arms crossed as she held her head high. 
"But she's always so nice to you," Fluttershy mentioned. "And she defended you. Maybe she does like you." 
Rarity laughed. "Please darling! It's all an act to make me think of her as my knight in shining armor and ask her to the dance! Then, she'll laugh in my face." 
"How do you know?"
"If she liked me, she'd simply ask me." 
Coloratura joined the conversation as she walked by, carrying her tray as the first bell rang, signaling the end of their lunch. "Maybe she won't ask you since she knows you'd just laugh in her face."
Silence sat over the four. Then, they slowly left. Pinkie and Rarity didn't say a word, Fluttershy and Twilight decided to ignore it and discuss their plans for the dance as they walked back to class. 
"Have a date?" Fluttershy asked, throwing the left over food from her tray in the trash and putting her tray up. She kept the carrots for her pet though. 
Twilight shook her head. "You?" 
Fluttershy's face exploded into red as she quickly shook her head. Suddenly, she sighed and said, "Not to the dance I don't."
Twilight smiled, knowing what it meant. "Congratulations, and don't worry, I won't tell Rarity." Fluttershy looked up at her and smiled sweetly.
"Maybe we should go together?" Fluttershy asked, an innocent smile plastered on her face. Abruptly, she understood how Twilight misinterpreted it and covered her mouth with her sleeves. 
"Not like that!" Fluttershy shouted from underneath her sleeves. "Just as friends!" 
Twilight laughed. "I know, I'm just messing with you." A kind smile sat on her face. As she looked at Fluttershy's face of relief, she only saw a friend. She wasn't even disappointed Fluttershy meant just as friends. Well, only a little.



Back to her skipping fourth period ways, Crash was busy playing blackjack with Sunset and Applejack. The three talked a lot more, and Crash was much more involved with them than she was before. But other things clouded her judgment from knowing to stand at sixteen and not hit. 
She threw her cards to the ground, "Bust." She sat with her legs crossed, Applejack mimicked her as Sunset laid on her stomach.  
Sunset glared at her as she collected the cards and started shuffling. "Wow, you're bad at this game. Sure hope you're better at poker." She dealt two cards to each of them, first herself, then Applejack, then Crash. After turning over the bottom card of the two she dealt herself, she lit a cigarette and started smoking it as she played dealer. 
"What's been up with ya, partner? You used to beat Sunset easy, hell, you counted cards," Applejack asked. She tapped her cards at the ground, Sunset threw her another card. 
Crash shrugged. "Don't worry 'bout it," she stared at her cards, though her mind could barely add up the two. Eventually, she came to fifteen and hit her cards against the ground. Sunset threw her a card and she landed with a fat twenty. 
"Stand," Applejack said. Crash threw down her cards, revealing her place as well. Applejack followed suit, revealing a nineteen. Sunset turned over the other of her cards, revealing a six to the ten she had. She dealt herself another card and hit twenty two, busting. 
"Fuck," Sunset said, kicking her feet to the ground as she propped her elbows up on her jacket. 
"Hah!" Crash gloated, smirking and crossing her arms confidently. A quick thought passed her mind as Sunset collected the cards. She instantly tried to get rid of it. Suprisingly enough, Sunset brought the idea back. 
"Maybe we could play strip poker and make AJ uncomfortable," Sunset smirked, glaring up at Applejack. 
"Y'all ain't that pretty, sugar," Applejack responded rudely, picking up the cards dealt to her. Sunset simply laughed at her, kicking her feet in joy. Suddenly, her eyes seemed clouded with realization as she stared at the two with confusion. The two were too busy looking at their cards to care. 
She ignored it, starting to pay attention again. "Hit me," Applejack told her. Sunset threw her a card and took a puff of smoke, she turned her attention to Crash. 
"Stand," Crash said bluntly, focusing on her cards. Sunset assumed she was counting cards, even if she had no idea how it was done. 
Sunset started small talk, attempting to ignore the game. She always found it boring when they played without betting. "Hey, any news about the dance?" 
"Plans, nothing final," Crash answered quickly, putting her cards down. Both turned their attention to Applejack, once she recognized the spotlight, she sighed and put her cards down. 
Suddenly, a smirk appeared on her face. "Well, ah just happened to get somewhere with Rarity." Sunset pushed herself up from her position in speechless curiousity. 
"You mean you got somewhere with drama queen?" Sunset asked, analyzing every part of Applejack's expression. The girl nodded confidently, but Sunset didn't believe her. 
"What happened?" Crash asked as if she was on the edge of her seat with anticipation. A huge smile, slight smirk, was plastered on her face. 
"Well, that creep Blueblood was botherin' her 'bout goin' to the dance, so, ah just stepped in and told him to back off. And of course, ah couldn't resist not complimentin' her in the process," Applejack smiled confidently. Sunset started laughing while Crash clapped. 
"Congrats, though, you have a week before the dance, you really think you'll be able to take her?" Crash asked. Sunset stopped her giggling, expecting to make fun of Applejack for her far-fetched dreams. 
"Hell no," Applejack said bluntly. "That ain't possible if all ah got in one school year is whinin' and yellin'. Besides, ah still get to see her in a dress, I don't mind." 
Sunset groaned and rolled her eyes, she put her forearm to her forehead, acting dramatic. She put her head in Applejack's lap, attempting to make it seem as if she fell. Then, she put on her girliest voice, "Oh AJ! I'll go to the dance with you! The straightest girl in school will go with the poor farm girl!" 
During the midst of her snickering, Sunset was pushed off of Applejack. "Oh c'mon, AJ! We're like best friends, it's fine." She didn't realize what she said until silence hung over them. "Uh-." 
"Y'all actually saying ya like my company?" A smile sat on Applejack's face. She slapped her knee, "Well ain't that a hoot!" 
Crash started snickering. "Hey, miss evil Sunny, am I your best friend too?" Her snickering turned into full-fledged laughter. 
Sunset rolled her eyes, "Oh shut up! And yes, you two are my only friends so live with it!" 
Applejack draped her arm over Sunset's shoulder. "Well if that's the case. Y'all are my best friends too." 
"That goes without saying, loser." 
"Shut it." 
Crash remembered the certain someone that Sunset wanted to go with. She assumed Sunset had forgotten, but she decided to ask anyways. "Hey Sunset, what happened with Flash?" 
A wave of rage and annoyance sat over Sunset. Hunching over with her arms crossed, her face twisted into disgust as her mouth curled up at one side and her eyebrows furrowed. "I'd rather not talk about dyke-lover." 
She glanced at Applejack, expecting an elbow to the side. Once she didn't get one, she muttered, "Sorry." 
"He still ain't asked you?" Applejack asked, taking her arm off the girl. Sunset rolled her eyes again and shook her head. 
"I have no idea how he can like that stupid spaz over me! I'm pretty and super nice! He hasn't even talked to me and I'm way prettier that that clutz!" She yelled, getting up and starting to pace. Crash and Applejack leaned against the wall, ready to get their heads fill with the annoyed, high-pitched voice of Sunset Shimmer.
"I mean, I at least have all his classes! She has one of his classes, one! At least he could spend time with me! At least he could actually get something from me!" She shouted, her fists curling to white as she paced. Her eyes were sealed shut with hate. 
She turned. "Oh, like, I don't know, populatirty! Respect! Like, c'mon! You're supposed to be my worthless jock, not hers!" She turned to them, her face red with anger as she finally let out a breath of relief and sat down. She sighed, "But, I guess it doesn't matter if I can just go with you two and spill punch on the dyk-... spaz's dress." Applejack flashed her a smile. 
Crash wasn't paying attention. She was more or so thinking about how good Twilight Sparkle would look in a purple, sparkly dress with her hair up.
