It's time for your first date with Princess Twilight.

You've got everything planned out; all you need to do is stop her from figuring out where you're going and allow time for that plan to be put into action...

AUTHOR'S NOTE: This story is not a sequel to First Date With Celestia. Also, it's the first story I've written for nearly two years.

Everything was meant to turn out great.

But it didn't, and now Twilight wants to know why.

Twilight is drawing, and Celestia is her canvas.

A brief recollection of the series of events which took place before and after Applejack smacked Strawberry Sunrise upside the head with a stool.

Sweet Apple Acres is a highly successful business.

So why is Applejack asking her friends for a loan?

Even a Princess deserves a little treat every now and again.

Now, if only she can find the time...

Professor Plaster Cast, Equestria's Chief Medical Officer, is quite worried; he has a report which suggests a disease is travelling across the nation.

The truth, however, is not what he expected.

When Anon ends up in Equestria, he decides that spending a week in bed would be a good way to get over this sudden and dramatic change in his life.

Twilight and her friends aren't so keen on this idea, and attempt to convince him otherwise; who will finally get him to see sense?

AUTHOR'S NOTE: The cover is cropped from its (SFW) source on Derpibooru; I needed an image of an Anon in bed, and this was the best one I could find that didn't have a pony in the bed with him.

Rated Teen for mild language.

Twilight Sparkle has a crush on Rainbow Dash, yet - in typical Twilight fashion - is unsure how to go about expressing her true feelings.

So when Dash tells her that she needs to talk to her about 'something important,' Twilight thinks that the pegasus may be hiding the same feelings as she is. She eagerly tells her to come to the castle later that evening, then rushes home to prepare a romantic evening for the two of them.

Could this be the start of a new relationship?

When Twilight's friends discover she has been overheard talking to an Earl, they come to the conclusion that she has a secret coltfriend.

But is that really the case?
