When Twilight woke up, she realized that Trixie wasn't in her bed.

"Huh, I told her that She could spend another night, I wonder where she is... I also need to talk to her..." She thought to herself.

Twilight walked downstairs and noticed Spike asleep on the couch. "I think I need to get rid of that TV, he doesn't even do work anymore..." She then walked outside, and noticed that Trixie's caravan was still there. She walked up the stairs, and knocked quietly, not to wake up any of the neighbors.

"Hello?" Trixie asked, opening the door. "Oh! Twilight it's you! Come on in." She said.

As Twilight walked inside, she noticed that the inside was cleaner that last time.

"Have a seat anywhere you'd like!" She said.

"Uh, thanks.." Twilight said, sitting on the bed.

As Trixie sat down next to her, She noticed that Trixie had a few things. "I wonder what they are...." Twilight thought to herself.

"What are those for?" She asked.

"Oh, these? Well, I thought that I'd go out and get you some presents today. I had just finished wrapping them up, when you knocked." Trixie replied.

"Oh. Cool." She replied.

"Well?" Trixie asked setting them down, "Aren't you going to open them?"

"Sure." Twilight said warmly.

As Twilight opened the first gift, she noticed that it was the one book she hadn't read, or bought yet. It was, Average Series: Book #7: The Last Kiss

"Thanks Trixie!" Twilight said.

"There's more!" Trixie replied, putting out the other gifts.

Inside the boxes were, posters, blankets, and pillows. Some of which, would be needed in the winter.

"Thanks Trixie" Twilight said.

Before Trixie could respond, Twilight had wrapped her in a warm kiss.

"T-Twilight.." Trixie said, when they broke off.

"Trixie, I love you. I would do anything for, and I wanted to know, Would you be my special somepony?" Twilight asked.

"Yes. Yes!" Trixie said.

"But wait." She said, "I have to tell you, what happened today."

Trixie sad patiently while Twilight had gathered her thoughts together.

"Today, after you let, I was going over to Sweet Apple Acres, where Applejack was holding a meeting." Twilight began.

Once she finished, Trixie looked sad, that Applejack would do that, but happy that Twilight's other friends had defended her.

Looking over at the clock, Twilight realized that it was time to make dinner. She turned to Trixie and asked, if she wanted to join her. Trixie smiled and accepted.

Trixie had just finished wrapping Twilight's presents when she heard a knock at the door. "I wonder who that is?" She thought.

Trixie jumped out of her chair and headed over to the door. "Hello?" She called. "Oh! Twilight, it's you!" She said upon noticing that it was Twilight. Once Twilight came inside, she closed the door, and sat down next to her on the bed.

"I just finished wrapping your gifts!" She said, giving them to Twilight. To her delight, Twilight had liked them all.

Then, she was caught in a kiss. After a few moments, they broke the kiss. "T-Twilight.." Trixie said, when they broke off.

"Trixie, I love you. I would do anything for, and I wanted to know, Would you be my special somepony?" Twilight asked.

"Yes. Yes!" Trixie said.

"But wait." She said, "I have to tell you, what happened today."

Once she had finished, Trixie felt hurt that Applejack would say those things.

Trixie noticed that Twilight had looked at the clock, and she had bolted up. "I have to make dinner now. Would you like to come?" Twilight asked. Trixie just smiled and accepted.

As they walked inside the house, Trixie noticed that the News was on, and decided to watch it.

Spike looked over, and noticed that Trixie had sat down with him. "Hey Trixie." He said, standing up to stretch. He walked over to the bathroom, and disappeared inside. She then turned her attention the the TV and listened.

"Hello everypony, it's Dave Topper here with your evening news! Today, we have some very sad news. We'll switch over to Lula Wind in PonyVille for this report." "Thank you Dave, tonight, we have received news on an attempted suicide case. Earth Pony, Applejack, was discovered in the barn today, with a rope hanging up. More news in a few minutes after the break."

Trixie sat, shocked, as to what she just heard.

"Twilight!" She yelled.

"Yes?" Twilight called from the kitchen.

"You might want to hear this!" She called.

Twilight walked in, carrying three plates. "Yeah whats up?" She asked.

Trixie then re-winded the TV, showing her what was just on.

After hearing what Trixie had, she nearly dropped the plates.

"We have to go see her." Twilight said, now shedding tears.

After they arrived at the hospital to see Applejack, they noticed that the entire Apple Family was there, as well as their friends. When Twilight had finally located Nurse Redheart, she asked to go see her. "OK, but visiting hours for friends will be over soon." She warned.

When Twilight walked in, she saw Applejack, crying, her hooves in restraints, to stop her from harming herself.

"Applejack?" Twilight called out.

Applejack looked over, trying to stop crying.

"Why are you here? Don't ya remember that ah' was rude to ya'? Leave me alone. Ah' don't want anymore pain." She said.

Twilight and Trixie looked at each other.

Then Twilight walked over. "Applejack, I'm here because I care. I didn't come to be mean. What happened after I left?" Twilight asked.

Applejack finally stopped crying and sighed.

Flashback

Applejack was the only one left in the room. Everyone gone. "Ah guess nopony wants to be with me anymore cuz' of what ah've done." She said aloud. She slowly got up, and went downstairs. When she finally reached outside, she headed over to her favorite tree. After a few more minutes, Big Mac walked over. "The fuck are you doing, just sitting around while all the rest of us are working? Hell! Even Granny Smith is trying to help. Apple Bloom is over there trying to help! While you've been gone on your lazy ass all day, we've been working!" He yelled. Applejack sighed, holding back her tears, and started to work.

After a few more hours, Granny Smith walked up. "Ya know, we had words for people like you back then. Lazy cowards." She said, and walked away. Applejack just tilted her stetson down, to hide her tears. Then, Apple Bloom walked over. "Applejack, where did ya go, all afternoon? I have fucking splinters in my back hooves because of you! Ya, know, if ah' were strong enough, ah' would beat the hell outta you!" She yelled. Applejack had enough. She walked over to the barn, and grabbed some rope. She quickly went inside and grabbed a chair. After she finished tying the rope, she slipped her head through, and kicked the chair. Then Big Mac walked in. He was horrified at the sight. "A-Applejack?" He said, before running off to get help.

"An' that's what happened." Applejack finished, tears forming in her eyes again. Trixie just sat in the corner, thinking of something, to help cheer her up, but to no avail. She slowly walked up, and looked at Applejack, causing Applejack to think of what happened before she tried to commit suicide.

"Applejack, I heard what you said today." She said. Applejack had started to cry again.

"Trixie, ah'm sorry. Ah'm so, so, sorry." Applejack said.

"Applejack, I'm not mad. It's happened before." Trixie said. Applejack was shocked at Trixie's words.

Suddenly, Nurse Redheart walked in, startling them. "Visiting hour for friends is now over." She said, and then walked back out. "Bye Applejack." Trixie and Twilight said, walking out.

After they had left the hospital, Trixie had gone to bed, leaving Twilight alone with Spike. "Hey Twilight. What's wrong?" He asked her. He obviously hadn't seen what had happened on the news.

She sat down next to him, telling him everything that had happened, which had brought him back to reality.

"Oh no!" He said, worried. "Ya know what Twilight? I'm gonna stop watching TV, and start living again!"

Which made Twilight laugh.

"Glad you're back Spike." She said, before heading upstairs to go to sleep.

When she woke up, she noticed that Trixie was still asleep. "Heh, surprised I'm the first one awake this time!" She thought to herself.

She headed downstairs, and saw that Spike was over at the desk, working with some ponies, who were checking out books.

"He actually kept his word!" She thought laughing. She headed into the kitchen, grabbing a box of cereal, milk, a spoon, and a bowl.

When she made her bowl, and finished eating, she noticed that Trixie was still asleep, but didn't really take note of it.

She headed over to the couch, and turned on the TV, to see the news.

"Hello once again! I'm Trop Crop for your Morning News! Today, you will hear the news, a follow-up on Applejack's condition, and a quick tip on how to make your own makeup!"

Twilight muted the TV until Applejack came on.

"Applejack is doing OK, and she will be out tomorrow. This was your Morning News!"

Twilight headed upstairs, and noticed Trixie was up.

"Hey Trixie!" Twilight said.

"Hey Twily!" Trixie said.

"Hey Trixie, how would you feel, about a little alone time today?" Twilight asked, blushing.

"I think that would be great!" She replied.

After Twilight had closed the library, and sent Spike out, she headed upstairs to Trixie, who was laying on the bed.

Twilight walked over to her, and sat down.

"You ready?" Trixie asked.

"As ever!" Twilight replied, already a little wet.

When they were done, Twilight headed over to take a shower. Just then, Spike came in. "Twilight, I'm back!" He called out.

Then, he noticed, Trixie in her bed, and Twilight getting up to go to the Bathroom. "What the hell? They better not have done, what I think they just did...." He thought to himself.

When Trixie woke up, she knew that Today was going to be a great day. Or at least that's what she thought.

The sun was bright, and the birds were out. She just thought that today would be great. When she went outside, though, she saw a horrible sight. She saw a poor little filly who was trying to kill herself, but it look strangely familiar.

"Cloud Watcher?" She called out. Then the little filly looked up, tears in her eyes. Then she realized that it was Trixie who called out. What was odd, about the situation, was that the streets were empty, and no one was awake, yet it was noon.

She walked over to Cloud Watcher.

"Cloud Watcher?" She asked again.

"Y-yes?" The filly asked.

"What's wrong?" Trixie asked.

Oddly enough, as soon as she asked, she was suddenly back in bed.

"That's odd..."  She thought to herself.

Suddenly she heard a voice calling out to her.

"Trixie! Wake-up! Trixie!!!!"

"Who is that?" she thought. Suddenly, she knew who it was.

"Twilight?!" She called out.

"TRIXIE!!!!!!!!!" and then the voice faded.

Trixie didn't know what to do. She was all alone, with her thoughts. Anytime she tried to leave, she would suddenly be back in her bed. The only thing to accompany her was the occasional "voice" and her thoughts.

"What if.....?" She thought.

Suddenly, her horn lit up, and she blasted her magic.

She was suddenly back in bed, only, this time, she felt different, as if something had happened.

She got up, and opened the door, only to find a shocking sight.....
