School had just ended for the Dazzlings. The Dazzlings ran out of their classroom and to their mom, who was waiting for them. Sunset looks at Adagio, Aria, and Sonata who had run up to her. It was always a nice sight to see her girls run to her with excitement in their eyes. It made her want to be the best mother she could possibly be to the three little Dazzlings. After all, it was up to her to make the Dazzlings their second chance at life. The Dazzlings run up to Sunset and hug her, and Sunset hugs them back.
"Hello, girls. Did all of you have a good day at school today?" Sunset asked as she looked down at her girls.
"Yeah, Tom came to our school today to give us a speech of encouragement." Adagio said with a smile.
"He told us that all of us are important and that we're important for the future." Aria said with a smile of her own.
"He also said that we were going to be the future." Sonata said with the biggest smile of the three.
"Well, it's nice to know all of you had a good day at school today. Tom is telling the truth, you're all important. You guys will be the future but don't worry that wouldn't be for another few years. You three just have fun and continue to learn all that you can. It'll help you in the future. Now come on let's go home." Sunset said getting into the car.
"Ok, mom." The Dazzlings said as they get into the car with their mother.
Once the Dazzlings got home they got to work doing their homework. They normally did it together so if any of them needed help *cough* Sonata *cough* they could ask their sisters for help. After doing the homework the Dazzlings would play or do anything little kids did. But for Adagio she had been something different from her sisters lately. Instead of playing or watching tv with her sisters, she had been trying to think of a plan. A plan to get her mom and Tom together.
She was the most observant of the three of the Dazzlings. She knew not having a dad in the family wasn't normal. She had also noticed how her mom and Tom would act when they would be near each other. She wanted to help her mom and Tom to get together, they would make a good couple. And Tom would make a great dad to the Dazzlings, the Dazzlings already liked Tom. He was nice, smart, a hard worker, and loved kids. He would make a great dad and a great husband.
Adagio walked over and went over to Celestia's office. She couldn't do this alone she was going to need help. Asking her sisters wouldn't be a good idea but her Auntie would probably be able to help her. Adagio knocks on Celestia's door, a little while later the door opens it was her Auntie, Auntie Celestia.
"Oh hello, Adagio. Can I help you with something?" Celestia asked as she looked down at Adagio.
"Yeah, I need your help with something." Adagio asked as she looked up at Celestia.
"Oh, and what is that." Celestia asked tilting her head.
"I want you to help me get momma and Tom together." Adagio said with a big smile.
Celestia was without a doubt surprised. She hadn't expected Adagio to ask her that. But at the same time, she couldn't help but smile. Adagio probably saw that she and her sisters didn't have a dad like the other kids. And if Celestia was being honest Tom and Sunset would make a good couple. She knew that the second she saw both of them. Tom was a great person, he was without a doubt perfect for Sunset. Celestia was going to take Adagio's offer on helping her.
"Sure, I'll be glad to help you Adagio. What do you have in mind?" Celestia asked with a small smile.
"Oh, I have a few ideas." Adagio said with a smirk.
Adagio steps a bit closer to Celestia and whispers something into her ear. Celestia had to admit, even though Adagio was young she was smart for her age. The plan she had thought of was a good one. Celestia nods her head in approval as she goes for her phone to call Sunset and Tom.
Tom and Sunset didn't know what Celestia wanted that was so important but they still came. Once they arrived however the location Celestia had given them was a restaurant. Did Celestia give them the wrong location? Tom and Sunset walk into the restaurant they were surprised to see the other one in the restaurant as well.
"Tom, what are you doing here?" Sunset asked.
"I could ask you the same thing. I got a text from Celestia saying that something was important." Tom said.
"That's funny. I got a text saying the same thing." Sunset said.
"Do you think Celestia wants to meet us here?" Tom asked clearly confused.
"I guess we're gonna have to find out," Sunset said equally confused.
Tom and Sunset walk up to the front desk. They could hear people talking about them, they probably thought they were dating or something.
"Hello, is there a table for Celestia?" Tom asked.
"Why yes actually. We've been expecting the two of you for a while now. Please come with me." The front desk lady said as she gets two menus.
Tom and Sunset look at each other confused. They follow the lady until they get to a table. But Celestia wasn't even there, Sunset was hoping this wasn't what she thought it would be. Sunset and Tom take a seat as the lady gives them the menus.
"What would the two of you like to drink today?" The lady asked the two of them.
"Water is fine." Tom said looking at the waitress with a smile.
"Water for me too." Sunset said also looking at the waitress with a smile.
"I'll be right back in a second." The lady said as she smiled and walked away.
Just as the lady walks away Sunset gets a text. She looks down at her phone, oh great. 'Have fun with Tom, Sunset.' from Celestia.
Sunset looks around to see if she could see Celestia but she couldn't. Celestia had fouled the both of them on a date. It wasn't like Sunset had a problem with that but, wait, what was she saying? Tom was just a friend, that was it, right?
"Hey so, when do you think Celestia will get here?" Tom said oblivious to what was happening.
"Tom, Celestia ain't coming. This was all just a setup." Sunset said showing him the text.
"Oh... well, let's make the best of it. It's for a while since it's just been the two of us. This is a nice little break from my job and all." Tom said as he looked down at the menu wondering what to get.
"Y-yeah, I guess it is. Fine, let's make the best of it." Sunset said as she did the same.
Sunset and Tom had a good dinner together. Lots of laughs and fun just the two of them. Now that they realized it, they had a lot of things in common. Sunset and Tom pay for the dinner and walk out of the restaurant. They both had a lot of fun tonight, it was a shame it had to end.
"That was nice, just the two of us." Sunset said as she walked with Tom.
"Yup, it sure was. Felt like we were high schoolers again." Tom said as he looked up at the starry night.
"Tom, Celestia set us up for a date, but i-it was nice." Sunset said as she smiled.
"You aren't saying we try something, are you?" Tom asked as he looked at Sunset.
"I mean if you want to. We don't have to try anything, it's up to you." Sunset said as she turned away, a bit shy.
"I'll like that. Want to meet up again next weekend?" Tom asked.
"I'll like that a lot, Tom." Sunset said with a smile.
"Nice, I'll see you then." Tom said as he waved goodbye.
"Bye Tom, stay safe out there." Sunset said as she waved goodbye.
"You too Sunset." Tom said getting into his car.
Sunset started to walk home, Celestia's house wasn't that far away. But what she didn't know was that she had been spied on by Celestia, and the Dazzlings.
"Guess we can say it's mission accomplished." Celestia said as she looked down at the girls.
"Yup, they're perfect for each other." Sonata said with a smile.
"Yeah, Tom will be a great boyfriend for Sunset." Aria said with a smile as she watched her mom happily walk home.
"Thanks again for helping me, Auntie Celestia. Momma looks really happy with Tom." Adagio said as she gave Celestia a hug.
Sunset and Tom, how far will their relationship go? Only time will tell, but for now, as long as Sunset was happy. The Dazzlings were happy.
