Tap that mythic Rarity!
"Pinkie!" Mrs Cake shouted from downstairs, rousing the pink mare from her slumber.
Pinkie Pie's eyes fluttered open and she let out a loud roar of a yawn. Sitting up, she brought rubbed the sleep from her eyes.
"Pinkie, are you awake!" Mrs Cake shouted again; a hint of annoyance entering her voice at not receiving an answer.
"Yeah!" Pinkie replied, pushing the covers away and jumping out of bed onto her hardwood floor. Her hooves clip-clopped as she went over and opened the door. "What's up?" Pinkie asked, looking down the stairs, seeing Mrs Cake standing there with a practised smile on her face.
"Carrot and I are going out for a while, it seems that Pound and Pumpkin have caught a bug..." She sighed and shook her head. "We're shutting Sugarcube Corner. There's a key on the counter for you."
"Okay, Cuppy," Pinkie replied. "I hope they feel better soon!"
"So do I..." Cup Cake mumbled, blinking away the tiredness and walking off.
Pinkie shut the door and smiled, "I can hang out with the girls!" She squeed and rushed over to the bathroom to get washed and cleaned.

Bouncing out of the bathroom, Pinkie went over to the window and pushed them open. The room flooded with light as her smile grew even larger.
There wasn't a cloud in the sky and with the sun shining, she had quite literally the pick of town to choose from. She could hang out with any one of her friends or even all of them at once, but there was one on particular that she wanted to spend time with the most.
It saddened Pinkie that she was singling out one of her friends as best, but she couldn't help it, she just couldn't stop thinking about her.
"Rarity," Pinkie said with a sigh; butterflies tingling in her stomach. "She rested her forehooves on the windowsill, "I wonder what she's doing now..."
Something on the street caught her eye and she looked down. Rarity was standing there, her back turned to her and talking with one of the vendors at a stall.
Pinkie's face turned crimson, though nopony would be able to tell. She shot out of her room, grabbing the key on her way out, locked the door and rushed up to Rarity.
Tapping Rarity on the shoulder, she fought back the urge to invade her personal space like she normally would have and decided on standing a bit closer than usual. Not too much though.
Rarity turned around and smiled, "Oh, hello Pinkie. How're you this fine morning?"
"Oh, you know, just peachy!" Pinkie grinned, and looked over to what Rarity was looking at before. Her eyes widened and turned back, "I didn't you you were into that!?"
Rarity felt her face and ears heat up and put a hoof up to her chest, "Please, Pinkie, keep your voice down!" She looked about to check if anypony heard, "It's for my collection, nothing more..."
Pinkie wasn't convinced. "Are you sure, seems an awful lot of money for this... Are they shiny or signed?" She asked, not totally sure of it was worth the money.
"Good heavens no. Do you know much they would cost?" Rarity replied, tossing her mane. Her eyes sparkled and she had a great idea, "Why don't you come round and I can show you how they work, just the two of us..."
Pinkie swallowed and felt her own face heat up. She hadn't been alone with Rarity since the last party she had ran. They were the last two there and they had shared a... moment.
Now, Rarity pretended it didn't happen and Pinkie couldn't stop thinking about it.
"I... are you sure?" Pinkie asked. "I wouldn't want to ruin your collection..."
"Pinkie darling, it would be my pleasure."
For the first time that Pinkie Pie could remember, she was speechless. All she could do was smile and nod.
Rarity grinned and turned to the salesponyc "I'll take them!" She levitated over the bits and tucked the wrapped package into her saddlebags, closing the flap. "Let's go," She said to Pinkie.
The pair weaved around ponies that were out enjoying the weather and sun, eventually making their way to Rarity's boutique. Rarity walked up to the door, unlocked it and in they went.
"Make yourself comfortable, I'll be back down in a second, I have to fish out my second set."
"Okiedoki!" Pixie replied, bouncing over to Rarity's couch and laying down.
The minutes ticked by as she began to wonder where her friend had gotten to when she heard the telltale sound of approaching hooves and not a few seconds later, Rarity made her way down the stairs with two boxes lit up in her magic.
"Which one would you like?" Rarity asked, pulling the lids off and showing Pinkie the contents. She raised her eyebrow as Pinkie examined the two sets. "They are almost the same in power, but I enjoy these ones more," she explained, shaking the one on her left a little.
"I see..." Pinkie replied, "I guess I'll go for this one." Pinkie pointed to the box on Rarity's right.
"Okay, let's go somewhere a little more comfortable. Time just flies by when we get these out." Rarity winked and walked towards her kitchen.
Pinkie felt her cheeks warm and the little butterflies in her stomach start flapping again as she followed, being careful not to look at Rarity's rump for too long.
The two entered Rarity's kitchen and sat down at her table. Rarity unpacked the contents of each box and threw the boxes onto the floor for later.
"Alright, I call this one the destroyer deck" she said, holding one of them to Pinkie Pie.
Just as Rarity was picking up another piece, Sweetie Belle walked into the room and rolled her eyes. "Sis, are you playing that again?"
"Why yes, Sweetie, would you like to join us?"
"Sure."
They played Magic: The Gathering; then they had sex.
