Meeting with a princess

"I'm sure your not dead." Rainbow said.

Twilight picked her head up and looked at Rainbow with an annoyed face. "How could you even say that? Now that i'm a princess i'm supposed to give a good example not fight with a mare and through her in a pond. What kind of an example is that?" Twilight said.

"You had a, sort of, good reason." Rainbow said trying to make it better but failing.

"No I didn't. I got in a fight because of something stupid she said. I should have just walked away. If I had done that then maybe I wouldn't be in this mess." Twilight said.

"Applejack put a hoof on Twilight's shoulder. "It's ok sugercube. Everypony makes mistakes. You don't have to beat yourself up because of it." Applejack said.

"I guess your right. It's just that this week has been very stressful. And now I have to deal with this problem. As if I didn't have enough problems already." Twilight said as she stood up. "I better go. I rather get this over with."

"How are you going to get there?" Applejack asked.

"I'm just going to teleport." Twilight said. "I'll see you all later." Twilight's horn started glowing and in a second later she was gone.

Twilight was walked into the throne room and saw a, not too happy, Princess Celestia and Luna. "Hi Princess." Twilight said a little nervous.

"I think you know why I called you here Twilight." Celestia said stepping down from her throne.

Twilight sighed and answered. "Yes, I know." Twilight said. Celestia gave Twilight the news article from the magazine she was reading earlier.

"I am very disappointed in you Twilight. This is no way for a princess to act." Celestia said. Twilight's ears flattened and felt really bad. Luna stepped down and walked in front of Twilight.

"Is there a reason that you got into the fight with the mare?" Luna asked.

"Yes, but it's not a very good reason." Twilight said.

"And what reason may that be?" Luna asked.

"She started saying awful things about me. And she's the reason that me and Flash-"

"Who's Flash?" Celestia asked interrupting Twilight.

"He was...my coltfriend."Twilight said. "I forgot to tell you. We broke up. Something happened and I don't think he can fix it." Twilight said.

"And this mare had something to do with this?" Celestia asked.

"Yes, she did. I saw Flash kissing her. It really hurt. He tried to talk to me about it a day later. He said that what I saw wasn't what it seemed. He said he loved me and that he didn't feel anything for SnowSky. After that I closed the door. It was too much for me to take in." Twilight said.

Celestia felt a little bad for Twilight. She had obviously been through a lot. "I see. Well, that isn't any reason to fight this mare. Your better than that." Celestia said. "I will let this go but if it happens again then I'm going to give you a guard to make sure it doesn't happen again. Do you understand?"

"Yes, I do. And I promise that it will not happen again." Twilight said.

"Good. With that said, have you and Flash talked since then?" Celestia asked.

"No. That was the last time we talked to each other." Twilight said.

"Well, maybe it's time for you to hear his side. Everypony deserves the chance to explain themselves" Celestia said.

"What is there to explain? I saw what happened with my own eyes. There is nothing to explain. I know exactly what happened." Twilight said.

"Remember my dear Twilight, not everything is always as it seems. Maybe there is more to the story that you don't know. Maybe what you saw wasn't what it seemed. You could say that you know what happened, but how do you know it's true. You won't find out without listening to the other side too." Celestia said. Twilight looked at her knowing that it was true.

"I guess your right. I have been avoiding him and rejecting him. I never gave him the chance to talk." Twilight said. "I'll talk to him the next time I see him."

"That's good. Then you can tell me how it turned out. Well, I don't want to keep you here to long so now that everything is said, you can go but, please don't let me hear that you got into another fight with a mare because of a stallion." Celestia said.

"Don't worry. That's not going to happen again. i hope." Twilight said hoping she didn't hear the last part.

"Alright." Celestia said.

Twilight said goodbye to Luna and walked out of the throne room. She focused her magic and teleported herself back to where she started. She started walking out the door thinking to herself. 'Maybe the princess is right. Maybe I wasn't what it seemed. Maybe Flash has a good explanation for what happened. But maybe I could wait a little longer before I talk to him about what happened. Besides what are the chances that I'll bump into him soon.' Twilight thought to herself. She kept walking towards her library until she saw it in sight. She stoped dead in her trackes when she saw a familier pony with a blue mane and a yellowish coat. 'This stallion will just not give up.' Twilight thought to herself.
