Rarity slammed the door of the Carousel Boutique behind her.

"I'm home!" Rarity shouted. "Fluttershy, are you here?" Rarity had asked Fluttershy to watch after Sweetie Belle while she was gone to Manehattan.

"Rarity!" A bouncing Sweetie Belle squealed, running down the stairs. Once she reached the bottom, she slipped on the floor and crashed into the coffee table by the door, caused a vase to fall off and shatter on the hard floor. 

"Sweetie Belle!" Rarity screamed. "That was an antique vase! There are only 6 that exist in the entire world!" She wailed.

Later, once Rarity had stopped crying, Sweetie Belle started to talk. "So, how was your trip?" She asked. 

"Where's Fluttershy?" Rarity questioned. 

Sweetie Belle made the lets-change-the-subject-right-now face and said "She's upstairs... sleeping?" She smiled guiltily. 

"Forget it, I don't wanna know." Rarity rolled her eyes. Rarity went upstairs to see where Fluttershy was, but Sweetie Belle stopped her in her tracks.

"Wait! Why don't we have some lunch first!" She suggested. 

"It's 2:00" Rarity glared. Sweetie Belle smiled. Soon enough Rarity found herself sitting with Sweetie Belle eating daisy sandwiches. Rarity remembered the stallion she saw.

"Sweetie Belle..." Rarity began. 

"What?" Sweetie responded. 

"Have you ever heard of the term 'love at first sight'?" Rarity asked. 

"Sure I have! What about it?" The white filly replied excitedly.

Rarity hesitated. "Well, I saw this stallion that-" 

"Say no more, big sister! Your good old sister Sweetie Belle is here to help!" Sweetie Belle cried. 

"Huh?" Rarity asked, confused.

"You saw a really really really handsome pony? Riiight?" Sweetie Belle grinned. "Well, go back to Manehattan! Find him! Talk to him!" She continued. 

"But Sweetie Belle, you see, it's not that easy to marry him right away. Prince Blueblood was a rude brute, and I don't intend to have another situation like that. But I just CAN'T stop thinking about him!" She bawled.

Sweetie Belle stroked her imaginary stubble, and thought. CLICK! A lightbulb went off in her head. "That's it!" She exploded. "I have a way you can find love with him!" She said.

"You do? You do? WHAT IS IT?" Rarity squealed. 

"Drumroll, please." Sweetie Belle called. "The way you can marry him is..." 

"Yes?" Rarity asked? 

"Issss.... a love potion!" She said.
