"Please don't tell me that's what you're wearing on your date with the princess." Rarity said as Fluttershy dropped a tuxedo on the counter of Rarity's dress shop. The yellow mare looked down and blushed after hearing her friend's disapproval in her choice of attire for the following evening.
"Well I guess it is a little revealing, maybe I should pick out something a little more modest." Fluttershy said as she lifted her head and picked the tuxedo up with her mouth with the intention to place it back on the rack that she had taken it from. Rarity gave a sigh before she trotted out from behind the counter and stopped the mare before she could place suit back on it's hanger.
"It's a first date dear, you're supposed to be a little revealing. I mean, don't you ever watch soap operas or romance movies!" Rarity exclaimed to the slightly scared and embarrased unicorn in front of her.
"But, wouldn't it be better to cover up on a first date?" Fluttershy asked, earning her a glare from the dress maker in front of her, who was currently searching through a rack of dresses, tossing many to the side which ended up forming a pile behind her.
"Whatever do you mean dear?" Rarity asked as she lifted a rather extravangant dress from one of the hangers and appeared to examine it before tossing it behind her.
"I mean, if we're naked most of the time then wouldn't it make sense to cover up when we're on a date?" Fluttershy asked, causing her friend to stare at her friend from behind the shrinking amount of dresses with a thoughtful look on her face as she thought about what the words her friend had spoken.
"I never thought about it like that." Rarity said with a smile as she moved from the rack of dresses towards the pile on the floor, and then proceeded to search through the dresses which she had previously discarded.
"Nevertheless dear, you still cannot wear a tuxedo when you go on your date with the princess." Rarity explained as she dug through the dresses, causing a pout to appear on Fluttershy's face as she trotted towards the tuxedo and appeared to feel the black fabric with her hooves.
"Why not?" Fluttershy asked, causing Rarity to chuckle as she turned her head towards the yellow pony.
"Well, a tuxedo is considered to be more of a masculine type of clothing and is usually worn by colts. Since you're a mare a dress would probably suit you better, since it's more feminine." Rarity said with a smile upon correcting the slightly confused mare before lifting a dress from the pile of clothes and smiling.
"A dress like this would be the perfect thing to wear on your date." The young dress maker said with a smile as she brought the dress over to Fluttershy who grimaced slightly upon seeing the white dress which looked suspiciously like it was meant to be worn at a wedding rather than on a first date.
"Are you sure I can't get the tux?" Fluttershy said, whilst lifting the tuxedo she hadn't realized she was holding in her hooves. "Somebody has to the colt in our relationship after all, why can't it be me?" Fluttershy asked, causing Rarity to pout as her gaze drifted from between the white dress and the black tuxedo. After a few seconds of examining both pieces of clothing, as well as the yellow filly in front of her she gave a sigh.
"Well I guess if I can't change your mind..." Rarity said with a defeated look upon her face as she stepped behind the counter to accept her friend's money for the poorly chosen article of clothing. Once the shy mare paid she gleefully took the tuxedo and proceeded to trot out of the shop with a smile on her face.

"Fluttershy, what a nice surprise." Princess Celestia said with a smile as the door to her bedroom was opened by one of her guards and the shy filly walked into the room wearing a tuxedo and clutching a small package in her mouth. The shy filly gave as best a smile as she could before dropping the parsel on the floor of the bedroom.
"Good evening princess." The filly said with a smile on her face as she trotted towards the much larger mare's bed. The mare in question gave a smile in return and moved her body closer to the edge of the bed to make room for the filly. This caused the yellow filly's smile to enlarge as she gleefully leaped into the empty space on the bed of he princess. Once the two were comfortable Celestia turned towards her much smaller and younger potential suitor.
"May I ask why you came to visit me in my castle?" The princess asked, causing the fily beside her to blush slightly.
"I just wanted to spend a little time with you before our date." The filly said with a blush as she lowered her head in slight embarrassment. The princess gave a smile at the cute display before she leaned down and planted a kiss on the shy fily's head, causing her blush to deepen.
"It's not wrong at all." The princess said with a smile as she leaned away from the tuxedo wearing filly with the same smile still on her face, as she gently lifted the filly's chin so that her face was facing hers. Fluttershy's blush seemed to consume her face upon being in sch a position with the princess and the princess likewise found herself developing a little more of an attraction towards the adorable filly in front of her.
"However, I would have to suggest that you wear something different on our actual date." The princess said with a slightly serious tone, causing Fluttershy to look down at her suit in shame.
"You...don't like it." Fluttershy said, as apparent tears started to run down her eyes. The princess gave a smile as she leaned in to kiss the filly on the cheek.
"I'm afraid you've misunderstood my words. I do like the suit you have chosen, and you do wear it exceptionally well." The princess said with a smile, pausing to glance at the deepening blush forming on the filly's face.
"I also liked it when I picked it out to wear on our first date."
