//------------------------------// // The Return Of Fashion Tough Love // Story: Princess Twilight’s Yacht Vacation // by Lonely Fanboy48 //------------------------------// After the two Twilights returned by the pool, Rarity was about to head to the gift shop to see if there’s anything new than the last vacation she had months ago. The workers on the cruise have something brand new with the clothes and she was hoping she can be amazed again. Human Twilight decided to come with her because she was hoping she can find something for her counterpart to wear something. Rarity is holding both Twilights’s hands while they walk together in the hallway. “I have to say darlings, it’s an honor for you to come with me to the gift shop.” Rarity smiled. “Well I didn’t go to the gift shop last time, so I can’t wait to see what they have on sale.” Human Twilight replied until she turned to her princess counterpart. “Is there anything you want me to buy for you?” “I really don’t know.” Princess Twilight said. “The gift shop is something I never wanted to go to, considering I barely use a lot of clothes back in Equestria. Any ideas Rarity?” “Oh please, Princess Twilight, I’ll give you some help when I find something that suits you perfectly.” Rarity giggled in style. They made it to the gift shop and it hasn’t changed whatsoever the last time Rarity went to it. However, it has newer clothes, newly designed sunglasses and far improved sea animal chains. Rarity can easy find the perfect outfit for the princess, but she saw a familiar face she saw three months ago and never spoke to him since. Her face was not only full of concern, but also felt ashamed in her heart. She didn’t wanted to talk to him but he didn’t really do anything to hurt her, expect make her really betrayed. Just when the two Twilights stepped in the store, Rarity grabbed both of their arms and pulled them away from the boy’s view. “Ah Rarity, what gives!?” Human Twilight reacted until Rarity places her finger on her lips. “DON’T made a sound!” Rarity whispered. “Why? What’s the issue? I’m sure they know who I am.” Princess Twilight added. “That’s not the point.” Rarity signed from her tone. She and the Twilight’s pop their heads in the store for a little so she can show her what the problem she’s dealing with. “You see that boy with the white yellowish hair?” She pointed at him who’s placing the clothes on the hangers. “Is it just me or is he like Applejack, but as a boy?” Princess Twilight focusing on the boy’s face and hair. “You mean...Ragamuffin?” Human Twilight added. Rarity again pulled the Twilight’s away from the store as they sit by the wall. “Haven’t you talked to him after our last vacation?” “No.” Rarity answered. “I mean, I was hoping I would but he had this accent that was beautiful and charming…” She blushed until she closed her eyes. “Until he stopped using that accent.” Princess Twilight can feel the pain Rarity is feeling. Back on the beach she met someone she missed, after she saved Canterlot High from the Sirens and things changed after that. But unlike him, there’s something she needs to know about Ragamuffin. “Do you think you want me to do something?” Princess Twilight offered which got Rarity’s attention. “What do you mean?” She wondered. “I think she’s been in the same situation you’ve been, I think.” Human Twilight added. “Sunset told me something about her back at Camp Everfree.” “She did?” The princess responded in confusion. “There’s a lot you missed, even the littlest things.” They get back on their feet but Rarity stood in place as she refuse to see Ragamuffin in the state she’s in right now. As for the two Twilights, they always wanted to help their friend who made the best outfits by talking to the teen that almost caught her heart. Ragamuffin is taking over at the cash register as he sorts out the money the customers used. The two Twilights walk up to him to which Ragamuffin took notice. “Well, welcome to our gift shop, is there anything you two looking for?” Ragamuffin used the same accent he used from before which made the Twilights realize completely. They refuse to question it, because it might offend it him, but they still need to understand why he’s going to do that eventually. “Actually,” Princess Twilight replied. “We wanted to have a conversation with you.” “Nothing personal to us but maybe during your time off, can you talk to someone you met before on this cruise.” Human Twilight added. “Ok then, how about tomorrow night?” Ragamuffin offered. “Sure.” Princess Twilight accepted. Meanwhile, Rarity was spying on Ragamuffin. She’s happy he’s going to talk to her tomorrow but they still need to work out their situation with him. “By the way, who is this someone your talking about?” Ragamuffin asked. “Rarity.” The two Twilights both answered until they both blushed from the awkward moment they said at the same time. “Oh, Rrrr...Rari…..R-” Ragamuffin tries to pronounce Rarity’s name but he with a name with r’s, rs aren’t his letter of words. “That popular girl I remembered. She’s an inspiration.” “She sure is, you have no idea.” Human Twilight said. “I’ll promise I won’t be late, I’m always on time.” “So do we. Sorry we wasted your time.” Princess Twilight finished as she and her counterpart leave the gift shop while Ragamuffin waves back. Once the Twilights got out of the room, Rarity immediately got in between her friends. “Thank you so much!” She cheered until she turned to the princess. “Although I’m ashamed I didn’t help you with the shopping.” This made Princess Twilight rolled her eyes. “I’m going to be fine, there’s so much I don’t need to use.” “You never know Twilight, we’re making you feeling better even if it’s a lot.” Human Twilight replied. “But I never wanted to go shopping, I was only wanted to hang out with Rarity.” “Touche…” Rarity commented.
