Rarity said to herself as she fussed about a small dress she had been working on. "This needs to be perfect, absolutely perfect". As Rarity was about to secure the last ribbon in place, the door that had been shut the whole time swung open as somepony walked in. Interrupted by this unexpected visitor Rarity was not in the least bit happy, yet decided to greet them anyway. "Welcome to Carousel Boutique, is there anything I can do for... Well this is a surprise! Mayor Mare! To what do I owe the pleasure?" Rarity left her work station to greet the Mayor. "Oh, hello Rarity! Umm... I was just looking to return this dress you made me a few days ago. It is truly a lovely dress but... I don't think I will be needing it..." the Mayor sighed. "Oh? why is that?" Rarity was a little concerned by the Mayors behaviour. "Did something happen between you and Thunderlane?" "Umm yes... we broke up, I don't know... I guess he just wasn't that interested in politics. Maybe I'm getting too old for this" "Nonsense, why your little over thirty! You just need to go after stallions a little closer to your age" "I suppose... thank you Rarity. So who is this for?" the Mayor said, pointing a hoof at the dress Rarity had been working on. "Oh! Why, this is for my little sister Sweetie Belle. She is going to need to look her best for her date with Spike next week" Rarity smiled brightly. "Oh, that's wonderful! I was not aware they were an item. Well I wish them the best of luck! Anyway, I'll let you get back to work now. Good luck and thanks again." "Oh that's quite alright dear, good bye!" Rarity waved as the Mayor left the room. Smiling she turned back to the small dress. "Ok Rarity focus, this has to be absolutely perfect."
