EqG Tales: Alphabet Edition

L is for Love

Flash Sentry walks along the streets of Canterlot City. He is looking forward to go out with Twilight Sparkle. But, he doesn't know how.
"Hey, Flash!" Sunset Shimmer called out. "Wait up."
"Oh. Hi, Sunset." Flash replied. "What's up?"
"What's up with you? You look more worried that Fluttershy when her stuffed lion was missing for two days."
Flash soon explained his situation. "I asked Twilight if she can go out with me this weekend. "
"But, you're not sure what to do." Sunset figured.
Flash hung his head low, knowing that Sunset is right. The former bully saw a sign about a new movie premiering at the Canterlot Multiplex. This gives her an idea.
"Why not take her to see a movie?" Sunset suggested.
"Really?" Flash said with confusion.
"Sure. I'm sure she'll like the new movie coming to the theater."
"Sunset, " Flash commented, "for someone who used to have a sour disposition, you can be as sweet as a lollipop. "
Sunset blushed. "Thanks."
The next day, Sunset was at her house sipping on a glass of lemonade when she heard a knock at her door. Putting down her glass, she answered that knock, and it turned out to be Twilight Sparkle.
"Hey, Twi." Sunset greeted. "What's up?"
"I have some good news!" Twilight cheered. "Flash asked me out on a movie date. "
"That’s great!" Sunset saw that Twilight was sweating a little. "Cold drink?"
"Good idea."
Sunset poured some lemonade into a glass, and handed it to Twilight.
"Thanks, Sunset. " Twilight said as she sipped her lemonade. "Just what I needed."
The two girls then talked about what was going on.
"I heard that you made the suggestion that I should go to the movies. " Twilight figured.
"Well," Sunset said, "when I saw what movie is playing, I figured that you and Flash would like it."
"That’s when that light bulb in your head went off." Twilight said happily. "Good thinking."
Sunset was very happy to see others happy. Soon, her phone was ringing. Going to her lamp, she answered her phone. "Hello?"
Twilight was wondering what the conversation was all about. Sunset came back with some good news. "Flash told me that he'll see you tomorrow by 12 noon."
"Sounds good to me." Twilight cheered. "I guess love is in the air after all."
The two girls shared a giggle. Meanwhile, walking in the neighborhood, Derpy Hooves was in a happy mood.
"This has been a great chapter." Derpy said to herself. "A lot of words starting with the letter L. Lion, Lollipop, Love, Lemonade, Lamp, Lightbulb,...."
She soon sees a lunchbox with a note saying 'To Derpy, from a friend'. This makes her happy. "And, Lunchbox!"
Around the corner, the brutal Aria Blaze watched with evil glee. As soon as Derpy opened up the lunchbox, a creepy jester head connected to a spring popped out. The sound of an evil laugh came from the head, no doubt a speaker was in the mouth with the recording of that laugh recorded. Derpy looked at the head, and was surprised. "L."
