It was hearts and hooves day.
A day where adults got the day off to spend their day with their special somepony. Except that teenage mares like Scootaloo had mid terms that day. On a holiday! Scootaloo groaned as she was passed a giant stack of papers. She dreaded this test every year, and ever since she and her friends got her cutie marks, there was nothing to think about. She looked at the first question.
Around what age does a cow start eating solids?
What did Scootaloo think? She thought that her life did not depend on cows. Why did she need to know this stuff anyways? She rolled her eyes as she bombed the questions, actually answering ones that she knew. She thought about the holiday and what she should do for her special somepony, Sweetie Belle. They had a mellow relationship for now, as school work had to come first and her classmates were still not 'mature enough' for serious dating. She remembered that she had reserved tickets to a movie that her marefriend was dying to see. She grew excited to see the look on her face when she saw the tickets. Scootaloo didn't even know why she was excited; she didn't even like the movie. She didn't care for her own needs, for this was a day for both of them.
Soon enough, Cheerilee called for attention. "The bell will ring in five minutes; pass up your answer sheets." Scootaloo handed her test to the foal who sat in front of her, Snails. She snorted at the thought of him touching the paper, but then realized that she should think better. The bell rung and the young teens ran out the door for the weekend. Sweetie Belle was walking when Scootaloo scootered up to her, an envelope in hand.
"Hey, Sweetie," she said, kissing her cheek. "I got something for you." Sweetie Belle took and opened the envelope and saw the two tickets.
She gasped. "You don't mean you got us tickets to 'Hooves in Hooves'!"
"I did!" Scootaloo boasted. She hugged her marefriend. "I gotta go to Dash's house to feed Tank; I'll meet you at the theatre!" She scootered as fast as she could to her sister's cloud home. She flew up to the door and inserted a key. Why Rainbow Dash trusted her with a key, she didn't know. She went to the pantry to find turtle food and filled the bowl with the boring pellets. She quickly made her way back to the theatre where Sweetie Belle was waiting.
"Hey! I figured since you got me the tickets, I got us food!" Sweetie Belle said. She held out a pack of sweet tarts for her, and a pack of mini donuts for Scootaloo, her favorite too if I might add.
"Thanks!" Scootaloo said, kissing the mare again. They entered the theatre and sat down in their seats. The room was moderately full of couples, snacking on popcorn or sipping their sodas. Scootaloo popped a donut in her mouth and prepared for the cheesiest movie ever.
After the movie, the couple walked up and sat on a nearby hill.
"I can't believe that movie was good!" Scootaloo said. Sweetie nodded and smiled. "Oh, Sweetie! I have something for you." Scootaloo held out a box. The unicorn opened it to find a horn ring. She gasped. "I couldn't give you much today, but with all the couples proposing I thought I might give you a promise ring. Sweetie Belle, do you promise to be with me forever?" The unicorn teared up and embraced her marefriend. She nodded quickly and put on the ring.
"I love it." Sweetie Belle whispered. "I love you."
