Written for the May Pairing Contest 2023 (Disqualified for being too long and not complete by the deadline) (Story takes place roughly in Season 3 and 4 and then hyper extends further by the end)
Twilight Sparkle and Prince Blueblood have a past. It's an innocent past, but still a past. Following Twilight's perceived failure in the Crystal Empire, she seeks a new task for redemption.
Little does she know, she herself may be a friendship problem and it's up to her to make things right.
As old feelings resurface, it'll require a strong will and some good acting to finish the task at hoof... If only she can manage to help Blueblood without falling in love with him.

Fixed. And Chapter 2 uploaded.
Bahhahahahahahahahahaha! Well that escalated quickly. Keep up the good work!
Celestia tif that was a prank it was a mean one though maybe it will be good for them considering they have liked each other from afar for years maybe it's time they sorted any feelings they might still have.
What happened? I thought blueblood had given up twilight heart.

It's explained more in later chapters. I'm planning on this being 7 or 8 chapters with an Epilogue. I have to have it finished by May 31st to be counted in the contest
I like Blueblood x Twilight ships, quite a rarity to see them. Hope this get's more likes and chapters!
Damn Twilight you bold
He should apologize after that little stunt he pulled
Buck it! I’m out of time. I wanted another chance so I’m going to have to prove it!
Dang Twilight you work really fast
Okay this is actually a pretty interesting story so far and we're going back to the past season 3 premiere but this time a different direction which this looks very interesting so Twilight got the news from Blue Blood that he needed to talk with her about friendship problem and basically she's starting to look back I've heard younger years that actually him and her are good friends but then things got really close and she basically yelled at him for not paying attention to class or something and she thinks that she really screwed this up between him and her once she got there she checked out the room and all the letters and apparently there are some letters of proposal to the prince which that really broke Twilight's heart that he's going to get married to somebody and then she saw him she could have helped it but to sleep with him later that evening they both woke up and they were pretty surprised to see each other hugging each other and blue blood told her about he's getting married or something and he wanted her to help him too interact with other people without being so formal Twilight agrees to help them with that so it looks like being normal is on the go
Well. That also escalated quickly.
Went from a 4 to a 12 real quick.
Even I knew this Twilight is waayy too different than canon Twilight. But, this is Fanfiction

It does have the Alt Universe tag. I guess you could say that this Twilight is a possibility of a Twilight that spent a lot of time around Blueblood, even if only in passing. She sees her behavior as normal.
Oops lol
Nice save blue blood
Oh dear now everything's going to escalated so quickly
Lol just wait until season 3 finale
Well then as I said before that escalate so quickly so apparently Twilight and blue blood are keeping this charade as a couple even though deep down they both really do want to make it as a couple but before they could say something they saw a Princess Celestia and apparently she was pretty surprised not only his nephew is getting married but her personal student as well to each other and they really wanted to try to not go as far as what they was trying to say but unfortunately Celestia did not get the memo and now everybody knows what's going on that didn't work that well 😅
What the Hay man lol a little bit too soon man
Oh my gosh Twilight dang never thought you wanted that many kids even though I don't know if you were just kidding or not but still
Just think about that movie Cheaper by the Dozen they have 12 kids
Oh wow very unexpected but yet pretty sweet so Twilight and blue blood had to keep the charade or a little bit longer to keep Celestia guessing but apparently she saw through what was going on Blue Blood was about to explain until Twilight stepped in and told them how much she really did care for him and she really want this relationship between them come together and that's pretty brave of Twilight to do that
Twilight gasped. “Which is why I can give orders to the on-duty guards.”
Blueblood nodded. “Yes. As studious as you are, I’m surprised you didn’t know that sooner.”
Lol never thought of that huh Twilight
Odd, you'd think that the Knights of Harmony would get a royal stipend for being so, or get some Hazard/Imminent Danger pay, or perhaps a tax break or two.
Never thought I find a story of Celestia saying Twilight is fat
Man, there hasn’t really been any stories with the idea from the movie “cheaper by a dozen” I think it was called? Having 12 kids would be really neat story for MLP
I think an older spike and sweetiebelle would be a story I read. This story is nice so far does feel like it’s ending soon isn’t it?

My original plan was 8 chapters finished before May 31st and under 20k words for the May Pairing contest but now the story will be a little longer than I originally planned.

I shall cast a magic spell on yea! Give us new chapters pony! 
Wow I would say it turned out pretty well so it looks like Twilight decided to meet with her parents with blue blood to introduce to him and when they got to the house they actually were pretty happy for both of them since I guess they knew him so they decided to go lunch with them and I got to say they're a little conversation was pretty interesting and even talking about having kids and I mean wow moving a little fast aren't we people and it looks like they had to prepare to go to Ponyville for business or something but not only that it looks like to get the chance to meet with Twilight and her friends I wonder how they would react
Of course Pinkie Pie will be the first one to surprise them lol
Yeah you could have handled it better the first time you met her instead of being a jerk I can't really blame them of thinking of you in a bad way but I'm sure you'll figure it out sooner or later
Ohh ok look I know you're upset with him but that's a little harsh don't you think Rarity 😥
What?? OK this is a huge change of character and I don't know how to feel about this 😥
I know she's trying to teach Rarity a lesson but this is gone a little bit too far don't you think I really don't know how to feel about this man
Ok there's a lot of mixed feelings of this chapter and the characters and I not sure if I'm going to like this so anyway blue blood and Twilight finally arrived to Ponyville and before they could do anything Pinkie Pie showed up out of nowhere as usual to greet a new pony and welcoming back Twilight which that's pretty cool of her to do that and it looks like blue blood made his good impression to Pinkie Pie to throw a party which apparently everybody's invited which that's a lot my pinkie pie or take that as a challenge it's all she went to work now they have to head for the boutique to talk with Rarity not only for the dress but also about something else and once they got there Twilight was asking how she been doing and she even got the letters and Rarity said she got the letter from Blue Blood but she never bought her reading it and said she just threw it away or burn it what she said and of course that hurt Blue Bloods filling so feels like he's not welcome here so he went somewhere else and it looks like Twilight was about to say something and this is when everything completely went downhill and I get that she's trying to teach Rarity about not judging by a book by its cover hopefully I said it correctly but apparently she did not learn that so instead she gave her the cold shoulder which I get it but I felt like there has to be another way again I really don't know how this will go and I'm afraid what's going to happen
It's still kind of harsh
That's always such a tough situation
Oh for goodness sake paparazzi's
Awww a cute shipping between Spike and Sweetie Belle that's nice I like that

Your running commentary is nice to see. Chapter 6 should clear up some of your concerns. Hint: Twilight was acting to get her point across
