Rarity knocked on the door to Maria's room, "Maria, darling, are you in there? It's Rarity and Fluttershy, the ponies from before."
Maria opened the door, "Hello Rarity and Fluttershy. What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be with the Sharks at the war council?"
Fluttershy was quick to say something, "We wanted to check on you first. We heard you were dancing with an American." Rarity's jaw was wide open. It wasn't like Fluttershy to start talking normally to people she met that day.
Maria pushed the two in so they could hear all about it, "It was the most wonderful thing you could ever imagine! He was just so..." She started crying tears of joy.
"We were with the others talking about it," Fluttershy said, "They said his name was Tony."
"How are you so keen on talking with her Fluttershy?" Rarity questioned.
"Maria is so lovely," she explained. They turned back to Maria.
"Tony... that's a wonderful name," she told the ponies.
"PLEASE DON'T SING A SONG ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!" Rarity screamed.
There was a long period of silence after that. It was finally broken by a voice in the distance that Fluttershy and Rarity recognized. "Maria! Maria!"
"Is that Tony?" said Fluttershy to Maria. They went onto the porch. Sure enough, he was there, along with...
"TWILIGHT!?" Rarity and Fluttershy shouted.
Twilight waved to the ponies, out of breath, "We... made... it!" she told Tony.
Tony turned to Maria, "Come down!"
"No, please. My mother and father will wake up!"
"Just for a minute!"
"A minute is not enough." (The ponies were on the verge of crying tears of joy.)
"For an hour then!"
"I cannot!"
"Then forever!" Twilight slapped Tony. "Fine, then I'm coming up. Come on Twilight!" She sighed, then followed him up the ladder. She went with the other ponies as Tony and Maria talked.
"This is dangerous," worried Maria "If Bernardo knew..."
"Then we won't let them know," he turned to the ponies "You won't say anything, right?"
Twilight, Rarity, and Fluttershy did the Pinkie Pie promise, invented by... well, guess.
"But still," Maria continued "You are not one of us. And I am not one of you."
Tony laughed, "To me, you're all the beautiful..."
Twilight heard a Spanish voice. It was Maria's dad. As she shouted some nonsense in Spanish, Twilight turned to the ponies, "Why are you here? I'm here because I thought I was going to be the only one who watched this."
"Come on Twilight, think practical here," Rarity explained "Did you really think we were going to pass this opportunity?"
Twilight didn't respond and turned back to Tony and Maria, the former talking about Maria's dad, "...and he will like me."
"No, he's like Bernardo, afraid," Maria let out a laugh "Imagine being afraid of you!"
"You see?"
"I see you."
"Oh Maria, see only me."
"Here we go!" whispered Rarity "And here's to that I don't faint!"
Maria started singing, "Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever. In my eyes, in my words and in everything I do, nothing else but you ever."
Tony sang next, "And there's nothing for me but Maria. Every sight that I see is Maria."
Maria sung back, "Tony, Tony."
Tony continued, "Always you, every thought I'll ever know. Everywhere I go you'll be.
Maria joined him, "All the world is only you and me."
They sat down, the ponies all jittery inside. Maria went first, "Tonight, tonight. It all began tonight. I saw you and the world went away. Tonight, tonight. There's only you tonight. What you are, what you do, what you say.
Tony replied, "Today, all day I had the feeling a miracle would happen. I know now I was right."
Tony and Maria once more sang together, "For here you are, and what was just a world is a star tonight!"
"Twilight," Rarity whispered "Do you think you could teleport me and Fluttershy to the Sharks? I'm getting a little dizzy."
"You're right and I need to get back to the Jets," Twilight remembered. "Hold on girls." She cast the spell and the two disappeared.
She turned to Tony and Maria, who were too lost in each other to see her. They were still singing, "Tonight, tonight, the world is full of light with suns and moons all over the place. Tonight, tonight, the world is wild and bright, going mad, shooting sparks into space. Today the world was just an address, a place for me to live in, no better than all right. But here you are and what was just a world is a star tonight."
"Good luck guys," she whispered as she cast the spell.
