> Fight For Love > by Phoenix Flames > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Kiss > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunset and Twilight were both sat on the bed in Twilight's room waiting for Twilight's parents to call them for Christmas dinner. When Twilight had learnt that Sunset had no one to celebrate Christmas with she instantly invited her over. Her parents were at first hesitant inviting a stranger on Christmas but after Twilight had told them about how Sunset had no one to celebrate Christmas with they agreed. "And this is a D chord." Sunset explained as she placed Twilight's fingers on the guitar strings. Twilight strummed and then gave Sunset a big smile. "Thanks for teaching me Sunset." Twilight said. After watching the Rainbooms rehearsal she had been curious about playing a instrument. Strangely Sunset had been the first to offer to teach her how to play the guitar. "No problem Twilight. Oh and thanks again for inviting me over you really didn't have to do that." Sunset said giving Twilight an appreciative smile. "It's ok Sunset I like having you over. Also I didn't want you spending Christmas alone." Twilight said as she hugged Sunset. When they pulled away the two girls noticed how close they were causing them both to blush. Then Twilight noticed someone at the door giggling and she instantly knew who it was. "Cadence!" Twilight shouted at the door causing the person at the door to stumble a little. "Hey Twily I just came to tell you that dinner is ready but you two were having a moment and I didn't want to interrupt." Cadence said as she walked inside the room. "Er we'll be right there Cadence." Twilight said her face going red and ushering Cadence to leave the room. Once Cadence left Twilight turned to Sunset who had an amused grin. "Twily?" Sunset asked trying to hold back her laughter. "Oh shut up." Twilight said gently shoving Sunset who nudged her back. Soon they were both laughing until Twilight grabbed Sunset's hand and they made their way downstairs. After dinner the Sparkles and Sunset were all sitting in the living room enjoying themselves. Twilight and Sunset were playing a really intense game of chess while Night Light and Twilight Velvet were looking through their scrapbook. Until Shining Armor and Cadence entered the room and started to move chairs, tables and the sofa to one side of the room gaining a confused look from everyone else. "Er, what are you two doing?" Twilight asked as she pushed her glasses up and looking at the two. "You'll realise soon." Shining said with a smirked. Then Cadence turned her ipod on and a slow song came on. Then they both moved to the middle of the now big space and started slow dancing. This caused every one else to smile and Night Light and Twilight Velvet quickly got up and started dancing too. This left only Twilight and Sunset sitting down until Sunset got up and held out a hand to Twilight. "Wanna dance?" Sunset asked with a cheeky smile which made Twilight blush. Twilight nodded and took Sunset's hand as she got up. Sunset placed her hands on Twilight's waist and Twilight wrapped her arms around Sunset's neck. They started to slowly sway to the music completely ignoring all of their surroundings. "Wow, you're a pretty good dancer Sparky." Sunset said as she twirled Twilight. "You aren't so bad yourself Sunny." Twilight said as Sunset dipped her but she then noticed something on the ceiling as she came back up. "Um why is there a mistletoe above us?" Twilight asked causing everything to stop. "Aw man I was hoping it would end up above us." Shining Armor complained with a pout. "Oh well looks like you two kids will have to make out. Don't have too much fun with it Sunset Shimmer because I'm watching you." Night Light said raising an eyebrow at Sunset. "Ooh this is going to be so romantic!" Cadence cooed. "Er I don't mean to be rude, but why do I have to kiss Twilight just because there's a plant on top of us?" Sunset asked genuinely confused about what everyone was talking about. "That plant is a Mistletoe. The tradition dictated that if two people were standing underneath mistletoe they would have to kiss, and that bad luck would befall anyone who refused the kiss." Twilight said remembering what she had read online about miseltoes a couple of years ago. "So if I don't kiss you I'll get bad luck?" Sunset asked wondering how a plant of all things could make two people kiss. "Well no, not really it's just a thing to do when there's a mistletoe above you." Twilight said pointing at the mistletoe. Sunset just shrugged and kissed Twilight's cheek. Which caught the lavender girl by surprise. "Sunset sweetie you need to do a proper kiss." Twilight Velvet pitched in. "Erm well you see I-" Whatever Sunset was going to say was interrupted by Twilight grabbing her face and kissing her. The kiss lasted only 2 seconds but for Sunset it felt like forever. "There done. So you can put the camera away now Cadence." Twilight said looking at Cadence who tried to hide the camera. "Oh my look at the time! I think it's time for bed now." Twilight Velvet said standing. "Oh mom do we have to!" Twilight and Shining Armor complained. "Yes now get to bed." Twilight Velvet said with a stern tone. Twilight Velvet and Night Light went to their room. Cadence and Shining Armor followed them. Leaving Sunset and Twilight where they were. So they both decided to start moving the furniture back. "Huh that was some kiss Sparky." Sunset said with a smile pushing the table. "Er thanks?" Twilight confused whether that was a compliment helping her. "Relax Sparkle it was a good first kiss." Sunset said smiling at Twilight. "Thanks, it was my first as well." Twilight said as she placed the chair back in its rightful place. As soon as everything was put back in its place Twilight went up to her room. Leaving Sunset who said she had wanted a moment alone. It was a perfect first kiss. Wait what am I thinking?! Twilight is my friend and that's all she'll ever be. Sunset shook her head trying to get rid of these thoughts and followed Twilight back to her room. > Mane 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was the end of the Christmas holidays and everyone had mixed emotions about returning to school. At one end they were glad to see their friends again but they also feared another magical creature invasion. Sunset ran to Applejack's locker startling the young cowgirl. "Whoa there sugarcube. That's definitely one way to make an entrance." Applejack said closing her locker. "Sorry AJ. Hey could you gather all of the girls except Twilight and meet me in the practice room?" Sunset asked panting. "Er sure but why can't I bring Twilight? " Applejack said confused as to why Sunset would want to exclude one their closest friends. "She's kinda part of what I wanted to talk to the rest of you about. Ok bye!" Sunset shouted running off leaving a confused Applejack behind. "Ok and why did Sunset want to meet us all here Applejack?" Rarity asked as she and the rest of the Mane 5 entered the practise room. "I told ya Rarity Sunset didn't say why she just said to bring everyone except Twilight." Applejack said as she followed Rarity. "Why didn't Sunset want Twilight to come?" Rainbow wondered "Ooh I hope they haven't gotten into a fight!" Fluttershy said in a worried tone. "I don't think so Flutters." Applejack said as she sat on Rarity's piano. Then Sunset entered the room with a nervous look. "Sunset you're here! We were just talking about why you called us here and not Twilight. Then Fluttershy started to get worried that you two might've had a fight. But AJ reassured her but now I'm curious why you called us here. So why did you? Huh? Huh?" Pinkie said in one breath causing Sunset to step back a little. "Calm down Pinkie I'll tell you don't worry." Sunset said sitting down. After Sunset had told them what happened Christmas she felt an huge amount of weight off her shoulders. It felt good to not have to hide her feelings any longer. "So when you and Twilight were dancing you ended up under the mistletoe but because you didn't know what kind of kiss you had to give so you kissed Twilight cheek. But then Twilight gave you a proper kiss." Applejack started " And then over the holidays you've been realising certain things about Twilight that make you feel butterflies in your stomach and have developed feeling for her. But you've been trying to get rid of them because you believe that Twilight will only ever see you as just a friend." Rarity continued. "Yep pretty much." Sunset confirmed lowering her head. "Sunset you shouldn't ignore your feelings. It won't make what you feel for Twilight disappear." Fluttershy said in a soothing tone causing Sunset to lift her head back up. "Yeah Sunset if what you feel for Twilight are actual feelings then you should celebrate! You've fallen in love! You shouldn't be crushing your own heart." Pinkie said in a soft voice. "Yeah and whether you decide to tell Twilight about your feelings for her or not you should know we've got your back no matter what!" Rainbow Dash stated in a proud voice. Sunset gave them all a happy smile "Thanks girls I really needed to hear that. And I do want to tell Twilight about my feelings for her, I just don't know how." "Well we'll help you there as well Sunset!" Applejack said putting her hand on Sunset's shoulder. "Thanks girls I don't know what I would've done without you" Sunset said with a thankful tone in her voice. They all gathered for a big hug and Sunset couldn't stop a big smile from appearing on her face. > Not the Best Start > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunset walked to her class, looked through the door and watched Twilight sit on her seat. "Ok Shimmer you've passed the entrance exam to Celestia's school so well she made you her personal student, you've helped defeat the dazzlings and showed a anti- social student friendship. So talking to said student shouldn't be hard." Sunset said as she put the collar on her jacket up. She walked through the door and when Twilight waved at her, Sunset felt a warm feeling go through her and giggled. She then quickly covered her mouth and turned around. Way a go Sunset! I can't sit with Twilight if everything she does is going to make me act like a total doof. She then turned around and saw an empty seat near Snips and Snails. When she sat with them it gained confused looks from Twilight, Snips and Snails. But Twilight couldn't do anything about it when Flash came in the class and asked Twilight if he could sit with her. "Er sure I guess." Twilight said looking behind her at Sunset who wasn't looking at her. During class Snips nudged Sunset. "What is it?" Sunset whispered looking at him. "Why are you avoiding Twilight?" Snips asked also whispering. Sunset looked at Twilight doing her work "How did you know?" Sunset asked scared if it was obvious. "Dude we were your henchmen when you reigned over this school. We know you well enough to know when you're avoiding something." Snips said with a smile. "Yeah you can trust us." Snails said as he looked up from his paper. "Wow now I feel more guilt for taking advantage of you two then I did originally." Sunset said looking down ashamed of herself. "It's alright Sunset. Now tell us!" Snails said eager to know the reason why Susnet had been acting strange. "Ok I have a crush on Twilight." Sunset with a smile. "WHAT!" Snips and Snails screamed with happiness in their voices. Although their entire conversation had been whispers the last part had caught the entire class' attention. "Sunset Shimmer, Snips and Snails care to share what you were talking about?" Mr Donkey asked. "Nope." They all answered. "In that case all of you out!" The three former bullies all walked out of the class with a smile on their faces. As soon as they were out of the classroom Snips and Snails started asking questions to Sunset about her crush and Sunset answered all of them happily. At lunch Twilight sat opposite Sunset and glared at her. "Why?" Twilight asked angrily. "Why, what?" Sunset asked trying to sound oblivious. "You know what! You didn't sit with me in class and completely ignored me all day!" Twilight answered with an angry look. Before Sunset could answer the Mane 5 came. "Whoa Twi why are you shouting your head off." Rainbow asked sitting next to her. "Sunset has been ignoring me all day." Twilight crossing her arms which forced Sunset to keep her laughter in. "What makes you think she's been ignoring you?" Fluttershy asked sitting on the other side of Twilight as Applejack, Rarity and Pinkie sat with Sunset. "She completely ignored me in class and didn't even say hello to me!" Twilight said sulking. "Well Twilight I agree it was rude that Sunset didn't talk to you but, I think you may be taking this too far." Rarity said putting her hand on Twilight's shoulder. "Yeah Sunset apologise to Twilight for being rude. " Rainbow Dash said nicely. Sunset rolled her eyes and apologised. "Awesome sauce! Twilight apologise to Sunset for lashing out on her." Rainbow said patting her shoulder. Twilight groaned but apologised. "Well now that we've all sorted this out can we all eat our dinner?" Applejack asked thankful that Twilight wasn't mad anymore. "Actually I need Twilight's help with my maths homework! And we need to go now!" Rainbow Dash said getting up dragging Twilight with her. Twilight waved at the others as her and Rainbow Dash ran to the libary. "So.... Sunset, care to explain why you've been avoiding Twilight." Applejack asked as everyone looked at Sunset. Sunset blushed "Ok I'll admit that it was stupid of me to avoid her like that. I just want to be able to be around Twilight without acting like a complete doof." Sunset sighed as she leaned on her seat. "Be yourself Sunset and if Twilight does something which makes tou feel all warm inside then just compliment her. Don't ignore her! It'll make her feel terrible." Pinkie said in a firm voice. "Heh got it. Thanks." Sunset said with a nervous laugh. Twilight was standing outside of the school grounds waiting for her brother to pick her up. Then Sunset walked out the door and saw Twilight. Ok you need to give Twilight a proper apology. Sunset walked down the steps and came behind Twilight. "Er Twilight" Sunset said startling Twilight. "Sunset! Sorry I didn't see you." Twilight said pushing her glasses up. "Nah it's my fault. I shouldn't have sneaked up on you." Sunset replied. They both just stood there until they both decided one if them should break the ice. "Look I-" "I want-" Twilight and Sunset said at the same time causing them both to giggle. "You first." Sunset said once she had stop giggling. "I want to apologise. I shouldn't have been so rude." Twilight said looking down. "No its my fault for ignoring you. I'm sorry." Sunset lifting Twilight's head with her finger on Twilight's chin. "Why did you sit next to Snips and Snails instead of me?" Twilight asked curiously. "Oh that. Um" Sunset was trying to think of an excuse then they both heard a horn. It was Shining Armor coming in his car. He stopped next to the two girls and gave a sheepish grin. "Sorry I'm late Twily. Hey Sunset. " Shining Armor said waving at Sunset who waved back. "It's ok Shiny." Twilight said looking at Shining Armor then she looked back at Sunset "bye." And she gave Sunset a short hug and went inside her brother's car. Sunset scratched the back if her head smiling to herself as she walked to her motorcycle. > Blueblood > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why? Why today of all days and why him of all people?! Twilight sat in her room at her desk sulking. Today her cousin Blueblood was coming. She hated Blueblood because he was always acting better than everyone else. "Twilight, come down! Blueblood will be here soon," Twilight Velvet called from downstairs. Twilight walked down into the living room crossing her arms. "Do I have to be here? Can't I just stay in my room?" Twilight pleaded. "No dear, your cousin hasn't seen you in 2 years." Twilight Velvet said tying her hair. "Yeah and it's been wonderful. I'm telling you Mom Blueblood will just annoy me!" Twilight said sulking in her chair. "Don't worry Twily if he does anything let me know, I'll set him straight." Shining Armor said putting his arm around Twilight's shoulder. Twilight giggled and leaned into Shining Armor and hugged him. Then suddenly there was a knock at the door. "Night Light went to the door and opened it and in came a blond hair the same age as Shining Armor wearing a blue suit. "Hello everyone I'm here!" Blueblood said striking a pose. "Yeah we can see that Blueblood." Shining Armor said walking to Blueblood and shaking his hand. "Ah little Shiny how's your promotion going?" Blueblood asked. "It's fine Blueblood thanks for asking." Shining said moving to one side allowing Twilight to greet their cousin. "Ah Twilight how's school? Your making sure your keeping your grades up right? Oh what am I saying of course you are! You're the smartest young girl your age and I doubt Crystal Prep would ever allow you to slack off." Blueblood said as he tapped Twilight's shoulder. "Actually I don't go to Crystal Prep anymore," Twilight as she gently moved Blueblood's hand from her shoulder. "Oh so are you in Everton?" Blueblood asked with a kind smile. "Nope I decided not to enroll there. I go to Canterlot High." Twilight said happily. "Where?" Blueblood asked in confusion as he had only heard of the top schools in town. "It's a school not far from here. They're mascot is a horse and the students call themselves Wondercolts." Twilight said sitting next to her mother and Blueblood, Shining Armor and Night Light sat in the opposite couch to them. "Oh them." Blueblood sneered causing all of the Sparkles to give him a confused look. "What's wrong with Canterlot High?" Twilight Velvet asked nicely. "Oh it's just that there test scores aren't as high as Crystal Prep, a very low percentage of students graduate and it's just a very strange school. I mean the students are all so strange! When I was driving past I saw these two girls holding and acting like a couple, I mean honestly don't they know it's wrong for two females to be in a relationship?" Blueblood asked. This made the entire house quiet for they had never seen Blueblood have an outburst like that. They also knew which two girls he was talking about and they were both Twilight's friends. "Er Shining would like to show Blueblood where he will be staying?" Night Light said nudging him. "Oh yeah! C'mon Blueblood you'll love where you're staying. " Shining Armor said who understood what his father was trying to do. When they had both left the room. The two parents look at Twilight who looked ready to strangle someone. "Twilight calm down." Twilight Velvet said putting her hand on Twilight's shoulder. "Ugh! I can't believe that I'll have to deal with that for a couple more weeks!" Twilight groaned stomping off to her room. Night Light and Twilight Velvet both decided it was best to leave her alone for a while. Twilight jumped on her bed and grabbed her phone and logged onto the Rainbooms group chat. Even though she wasn't technically part of the band she was still part of the group. As she started texting Spike jumped on her lap and she petted him. Hello? Hey there Twilight! We were all thinking of having a picnic today. Do you wanna come? Sure! Great! Hey we're all going to meet by the Wondercolt Statue in 5 minutes , you want a lift? Oh Sunset aren't you being exceptionally nice today! I'm ignoring that, so what's your answer Sparky? Thanks for the offer but I'll be okay Sunny!! In Rarity's house Rarity was in her room texting. When a ding went from the phone and she read the text she started giggling. "Aw those two already have pet names for each other! They are going to be such a cute couple!" She squealed as she saw that Sunset was texting again. Ok but try to get their safely. Don't you worry Sunset Twilight's a big girl. I'm sure she'll be able to get there safely. Lol! BTW whose bringing the food and drinks? Me!!!! Pinkie I'll come over and lend you a ride there, so that you won't have to carry the basket all the way to school. KK! So should set off now? I mean if you want to. Don't worry Flutters we're all going now. Applebucker13 has signed off Animal Lover67 has signed off Phoenix has signed off Sparkles has signed off Party Animal has signed off Dashing Comet has signed off Fashion Star has signed off Twilight got up from her bed and grabbed Spike's leash and attached it to his collar. Twilight walked down the stairs and went to the kitchen and told her mother where she was going. As she was walking out she saw Blueblood looking at a picture. She walked near him and he just looked at her with confusion. "Twilight who are these girls?" Blueblood asked. "They're my friends from Canterlot High." Twiligh said looking at him. "Are they? Hmm, wait hold up whose that girl who has her arm around you?"Blueblood asked pointing at the picture. "Oh that's Sunset Shimmer." Twilight said blushing as she said Sunset 's name and Blueblood noticed this. "Are you two close?" Blueblood asked "Yes, actually I think I'm more close to Sunset than the others. Don't get me wrong I love the others they've all been great friends to me since I started Canterlot High, but Sunset saved me." Twilight said and even though Blueblood didn't understand the part about saving her, he decided it was best not to question it. "Intersting." Blueblood said with a smirk. He then noticed that she had Spike on a leash with her. "Are you going somewhere?" "Oh yes, I'm going to a picnic! And I probably shouldn't be late. Bye!" Twilight said walking out the door and waving goodbye to Blueblood. "Wait Twilight has friends? When did that happen?" Blueblood exclaimed realising what he had just heard. Then Twilight called Spike and they both went out the door leaving Blueblood who was smirking to himself. > The Picnic > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunset drove on her supermoto bike to Sugarcube Corner where Pinkie Pie stood there with a picnic basket in one hand and waving with the other. "Hey Pinkie how long have you've been waiting there?" Sunset asked as Pinkie climbed on. "Only two minutes." Pinkie said holding onto the picnic basket. Are sure you'll be able to hold that?" Sunset asked worrying about Pinkie falling off. "Don't worry Sunny I'll be fine!" Pinkie said winking at Sunset when she called her 'Sunny'. Sunset blushed as she recalled Twilight calling her that on the group chat. "Ahem let's just go." She said clearing her throat and starting the bike. "WE'RE HERE!" Pinkie yelled at the others sitting on the picnic blanket. "We know Pinkie we can see you." Rainbow Dash said dryly. Pinkie just shrugged and jumped off the bike and soon everyone was eating their sandwiches while talking about what was going on at their houses. "Twilight didn't you say your cousin was coming over today?" Rarity asked making everyone look at Twilight who looked nervous. "Uh yeah, his name's Blueblood and he's staying over at my house because his mansion is being redecorated again." Twilight said that last word with venom in her voice which didn't go unnoticed by her friends who looked confused. "Aren't ya happy to see ya cousin again Twi? I mean he's family!" Applejack asked not sure why Twilight wouldn't like one of her family members. "I know that and I do love him, well to an extent. But he always causes trouble for our family. Sure at first he may seem charming and a real gentlemen but honestly he's the most self-absorbed person you'll ever meet!" Twilight shouted the last part and then quickly covered her mouth once she realized she was ranting. "Sorry I didn't mean to yell at you." "Its alright Twilight you can tell us anything and if it means you have to yell at us, will be okay with it." Fluttershy said comforting the young girl. "Yeah and if you think Blueblood's really all that bad then we believe you." Sunset said as the others nodded their heads. "Trust me he is that bad just before I came he was insulting CHS's capability as a school, comparing it to Crystal Prep's. He also insulted Lyra and Bon Bon just because they were girlfriends!" The last piece of news seemed to make everyone angry, especially Fluttershy. Everyone at CHS knew about Lyra and Bon Bon's relationship and had supported it because they were both two of the nicest girls in school. "Wow! I would hate to meet him! And normally I love making new friends but this guy just seems awful! Unless... I throw him a party that'll turn his sour mood into a sweeter one and we'll all be best friends!" Pinkie said jumping into the air and making confetti appear out of nowhere. "I doubt that'll work but it will make him feel more welcomed to the town since he's never been here before." Twilight said wondering if throwing a party for her obnoxious cousin was a good idea. "Great! I'll set it up!" Pinkie said with determination in her voice that made the rest of them smile. After a while they all started to pack up and head home and Sunset was the first to ask if anyone wanted a lift home. "I'll go with Applejack this time since I left my cake recipe at the farm. I'm going to need it if I'll be throwing a suprise party for a new friend!" Pinkie said jumping into the back of Applejack's truck. "I need a lift can I go with you?" Twilight asked nervously. "Sure." Sunset said with a big smile on her face which made the others except Twilight giggle. The others waved as the two rode off into the sunset. "Ooh! I hope they would hurry up and get together already, my heart can't take all the feels I get from just watching these two be akwardly adorable with each other!" Rarity said while putting her hand to her heart. "Rarity it'll happen when it'll happen. You can't rush these things." Applejack said in a lecture voice. "I know, I know but those two are so perfect for each other." Rarity squealed then cleared her throat. "Right, now that I've fangirled let's go Fluttershy. We wouldn't want to keep any of your animal friends waiting now would we?" "Oh no they would get so upset if I was any later than I said I'd be." Fluttershy said as she walked next to Rarity's car. So they all parted ways, with Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash going in the Apple Truck and Rarity and Fluttershy going in Rarity's car. Sunset parked outside of Twilight's porch and waited for Twilight to come off first then getting off the bike herself. "Well here we are." Sunset said unable to think of something to say. "Yeah. Hey I wanted to ask you something." Twilight said gaining Sunset's full attention. "What's up? Is there anything you wanted because I'll do anything you want me to." Sunset said holding Twilight's hand. "Really? Thanks. " This revelation caused Twilight to blush. She never realised how wonderful her friends were to her until this moment. "I actually wanted to ask if you would do something with me over the weekend?" Twilight asked taking Sunset's other hand. "R-really?" Sunset asked trying to restrain her excitement. Is Twilight really trying to ask me out? If she is then that would mean she has feelings for me too! "Yeah, it's just that with Blueblood coming over my mind has been stressed out trying to prepare for his arrival. I just want to have a day without having to worry about him causing any trouble. And I figured that I should spend that time with you since I feel the most comfortable around you. " Twilight confessed looking down and failing to see the look of disappointment on Sunset's face. Oh. So it's not a date, she just wants to be away from her cousin. Wait why am I getting upset? We're still spending a full day together! And I'm going to make sure she doesn't even think about her problems because she'll be too busy having a great time! "Uh sure, I'd love to hang out for a day." Sunset said trying to keep her cool. "Really? Thank you so much!" Twilight then surprised herself and Sunset when she engulfed Sunset in a hug. Hmm she smells so nice. Like... Lavender. Sunset had a dreamy smile on her face as they hugged but soon Twilight realised how long they'd been hugging and sheepishly pulled away. "Well I'd better go back in. Bye! " Twilight said as she walked inside the house. "Bye." Sunset said to a closed door. "How long will I have to wait for you to notice how I feel about you Twilight? " Sunset asked looking at the spot where Twilight was. She then hopped onto her bike and rode off home. However a mysterious figure was listening to her. He was standing next to an open guest room window and had watched and heard everything. So this young lady has feelings for Twily eh? Ha, ha ha. I'm going to have lots of fun with this. > Doubts > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Blueblood stood in the living room looking at all the pictures on the wall. Apparently the Sparkles loved hanging pictures of their family. However there was a certain picture that had caught Blueblood's eye. He had never been camping before and he honestly didn't have any interest in doing so in the near future. However he was curious why Twilight, a girl who had never shown any interest in outdoor activities, had agreed to stay a week in a camp out of town. "Twilight could you come down here please?" Blueblood asked towards the stairs which led to one of the rooms which Twilight was in. "Uh sure, what's wrong Blueblood?" She asked walking down the stairs towards Blueblood. "Well I was looking at this picture and was curious as to why you agreed to go to some camp. Because unless they had a library, which I honestly doubt, it doesn't really seem like someplace which you would like to go." Blueblood told his younger cousin. "Well you're right normally I wouldn't. But making friends had really inspire me to move out of my comfort zone and try new thing, and I'm so glad that I did! I had a wonderful time at camp, other than a couple of sleepless nights, I had a lot of fun experiences. I made a lantern, went rock climbing, had a boat ride across the lake and there was a ball where I got to dance with... Timber." Twilight abruptly stopped talking as she remembered Timber. She hadn't even thought about him since they left camp. But thinking about him still made a blush appear on her cheeks. She remembered the kiss they almost shared which was suddenly interrupted by Gloriosa. I almost had my first kiss with Timber, but instead I ended up having it with Sunset. I wonder what would happen if we weren't interrupted and we actually kissed. Would we be dating, or would I just never see him again? "Twilight? Twilight!" Blueblood said snapping his fingers gaining Twilight's attention. "Huh? Oh, I'm sorry Blueblood I must've spaced out, I was just remembering someone." Twilight said shaking her head. She then looked at the clock and gave a small shriek. "I need to hurry up and get ready, Sunset will be here any minute!" She dashed off to her room leaving Blueblood alone to consider what had just happened. Hmm, that's odd she just blanked out as soon as she said that boy's name. I wonder who he is and what sort of relationship he has with Twilight. His thoughts were disrupted by a knock at the door. "I've got it!" He called letting the other resident know he was answering the door. As soon as he opened the door he saw Sunset Shimmer. "Hi you must be Blueblood, Twilight's cousin right? I'm Sunset Shimmer pleased to meet you." Sunset said giving a friendly smile and offering her hand. "Charmed." Blueblood replied while shaking her hand. Let's see if Twily's girlfriend can tell me what I want to know. "Please, do come in Miss Shimmer." Blueblood said with a hand pointing into the room. "Uh, sure." Sunset said entering the house while and sitting on the couch after taking her shoes off. "Miss Shimmer I must say it is an absolute honour meeting you, Twilight speaks of you very well." Blueblood said as he sat on her left and gave a charming smile. "Wow, really? She talks about me?" Sunset said blushing, which was just the reaction Blueblood was looking for. "Excuse me may I ask you a question about Twilight?" Blueblood asked innocently. "Uh, sure?" Sunset was worried as to what he was going to ask her but curious all the same. "Who is this Timber fellow? It's just that Twilight was talking about how she danced with him at some ball during her time at camp." Blueblood asked and just like that Sunset's heart stopped. She was talking about Timber? And when did she dance with him? I just thought Twilight's crush on him was a one time thing just like Princess Twilight's fling with Flash. But could Twilight actually still have feelings for him? Wait, what if they never lost in touch with each other and still talk to each other? WHAT IF TWILIGHT'S IN LOVE WITH HIM? "Hahem" Blublood coughed to get Sunset's attention as he notice her starting to sweat. ""Miss Shimmer are you alright?" Blueblood asked trying to sound sincere. "Huh? Oh, yeah" Sunset gave a weak laugh as she wiped the sweat off her forehead. "So, um you want to know about Timber eh?" Sunset asked receiving a nod from Blueblood. "Uh well, he was raised and works at Camp Everfree and when we went there him and Twilight had a crush on each other." Sunset told him trying to hide the fact her voice was faltering. Well, well, well. It seems like I've struck a cord. I could use this to my advantage. "Hmm, this Timber fellow must be a nice guy for Twilight to have a crush on him. She must've really cared for him. I wonder if she was able to experience the joy of her first kiss with this young man?" Blueblood said giving Sunset a curious look. "No she didn't have the chance to. During the ball they nearly did but it was interrupted." Sunset didn't want to mention that she had been the one who had given Twilight her first kiss. "Oh such a pity, I assume Twilight would've been over the moon to receive her first kiss from her first crush." Blueblood exclaimed noticing Sunset's head dropping. Upsetting you am I? Hmm well trust me Sunset Shimmer by the time my stay here is over. I will have crushed your heart so badly you won't even be able to pick up the pieces again. Suddenly they both heard Twilight coming down the stairs looking ready to go for a walk. "Hey Sunset, ready to go?" Twilight asked grabbing Spike's leash as he came down the stairs. "Uh yeah totally." Sunset trying to regain her composure. "Great let's go. Bye Blueblood!" Twilight waved at Blueblood as her, Spike and Sunset walked out the door. Blueblood waved back with an evil smirk on his face.
