Celestia walked through the snow, brushing the tiny snowflakes out of her light pink mane. Her younger sister, Luna, trotted beside her.
Celestia was just a young mare, only ten years old. Yet, she was as tall as a regular pony mare. Her younger sister, Luna, was just a little five year old blue filly. Even at such a young age, Celestia was very mature and took great pride in her image.
Luna of course could care less. She barely cared during anything, which made her a very easily bored filly. Luna walked along, but was slowly getting more and more bored until she popped. "Tia! It's snowing, when are we going to do something fun?!"
Celestia took a deep breath and smiled down at her sister, her eyes sparkling with light. "How about a snowball fight?" 
Before Luna could blink Celestia whipped her hoof around and slammed Luna in the face with a large snowball. Luna wiped the snow from her face and gave a evil little smile. "Oh Tia! You shouldn't of done that!" Luna yelled at her elder sister.
Luna then dug her tail into the snow until a giant mound sat on it. Luna flew up into the sky and caught up with her sister. When she was over Celestia's head, she dumped all of the snow onto her sister. 
Before Celestia could find her way out of the snow, a colts voice laughed from behind a tree. Luna spun around and ran towards the laughing pony. She was sure this person was making fun of her sister under all that snow, and Luna would have none of it.
Before Luna could round the tree, the colt stepped out. Luna tried to stop but the slippery snow wouldn't provide enough traction. Luna closed her eyes, preparing for impact. Luna had her eyes closed for quit a while, until she relized it was taking her an awful long time to hit the pony. Luna opened her eyes, and found herself in a purple magical aura.
The colt that had stopped Luna's skidding adventure was, as far as Celestia was concerned, the most handsome she had ever seen. He had a sleek brown coat, and a well groomed white mane. He had cold eyes, and his shy smile showed how gentle he was in nature.
Celestia couldn't keep her eyes, away, until she realized she was making the colt uncomfortable. Luna began giggling and making kissy faces at her sister. "Tia and..." Luna rubbed her head and turned towards the handsome colt. "What's your name?"
The colt was to busy watching Celestia to pay any attention to Luna, so he ended up in a stutter to Luna's question. "Um.. uh.. What?"
Luna shook her head at the colt. "You deaf or something? Whats your name?"
The colt relaxed and placed a hoof towards little Luna. "My name is Discord. I'm the chef's apprentice here at the palace. You must be Luna, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Luna smiled up at the colt and shook his extended hoof. "Good! Now that I know your name...." Luna looked at her sister with wicked little smile. "Tia and Discord sitting in a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the foal in he foal carriage!"
Luna rolled onto her back laughing, and noticed another voice laughing with her. Discord found the little song just as funny little Luna, he could barely keep his smile back.
Celestia loved it. She didn't mind her little sister's embarrassing song. She loved a colt that could laugh at himself. She built up the courage and extended her hoof towards the laughing pony. "My name is Celestia. I'm the pests older sister. Might I ask how old you are?"
Discord smiled at Celestia, and kissed her awaiting hoof before shaking. "Twelve years young. Might I say it's a pleasure knowing you, maybe I could get too know you a little better?" Discord used his horn a made a little peace of paper and a inked quill appear out of the air. He quickly wrote something down and gave it to Celestia.
He smiled as his horn began to glow. "I have to go now or chef will kill me. Hope to see you both very soon."
Celestia smiled down at the little folded paper, and then picked Luna up and onto her back. "Come on stinker, I have a response to write. " 



Dear Celestia,
I hope you will be able to meet me at the in outside the servants quarters tonight. It would be great if you could come, I have a gift for you.
Forever Yours, Discord[


As Celestia read it in her room, she smiled at every little detail. She felt herself getting red at the thought of being alone with that amazing, kind, and handsome pony. She would have to sneak past Luna, but everything would be worth it seeing him.
Celestia had the letter on her chest, right over her heart. "Is this what it feels like to have a crush?" Celestia thought to herself. She snapped out of it quickly as rubbed her head. "Snap out of it Tia, write a response and tell him you'll be there."


Dear Discord,
I will be there exactly an hour after to moon falls. Don't be late!
Love Always, Tia
