Starlight's purple eyes gawked at the floor, the misery-look to them made Twilight feel unquestionably abhorrent. The pity look to Starlight obviously made Twilight ask what was wrong. But Starlight couldn't answer, she couldn't bear guff to Twilight, not here, not now. Maybe not even ever. She was too anxious about everything, her surroundings, her life, herself, but especially, yes, conspicuously..Twilight. Instead of sputtering and studdering, and retorting things she didn't mean, she agitated her head back and forth. Twilight abruptly wrapped her hoof around Starlight's neck, trying to assuagement her in the placidest way. But Starlight refused the comfort, even though she mourned for it every moment of the day. Her hooves conveyed her to her new room. 

Her room was just installed, and it needed tons of work, and lots of adjustments. The floor was damp, the rugs were scuffed up, and her bed was dilapidationed, Twilight hadn't practiced that spell. So Starlight would just have to do it herself, like she did constantly.


As Twilight wandered into Starlight's room, her heart skipped a beat, "St-Star-?" 

In Starlight Glimmer's room, everything was deluxe. It was a beautiful, elegant sight. But the one unornamented, was the five million pictures of Twilight up on the walls. 

Starlight screamed in horror, no others were allowed to enter her room, "Twili-Twilight?!! Uh..this isn't what it looks like!" 

Twilight's heart belabored against her purple chest, her mind was fuzzy, and her breath was hard, "Yes. Yes, Starlight, this is! You decorated your own room for me!" She grasped onto Starlight, tugging her in for a tight squeeze.

Starlight hesitantly let out an insignificant chortle. Her neck was squeezed tightly in a headlock, and she was losing oxygen. Her face turned a bright blue, and her vision was pilate, "Twi--" 

"Besties! Am I right?!" Twilight hooted, squeezing Starlight even more invulnerable.

Starlight took a deep breath of air, and with all her might, she insolently screeched, "TWILIGHT!!"

As Twilight let go, Starlight realized she needed this comfort. She had to ask. And she did.

Starlight clutched onto Twilight's hoof. And exquisitely asked, "Will you go out with me? I..like you."
