The worldly sounds of outside stir you from your slumber with a much welcomed pleasant feeling, really you never thought you would be so happy to hear the dumb bird from outside...It's still a mystery to you as how the little alarm clocks found out you and Twilight switched rooms with Spike, but complaining about the sweet lolling chirps is not something you have woken up for.
Each little chirp being muffled through the glass windows and the oak tree house's wood bring two thoughts to your mind, the first is a bittersweet thought about it being time to get up; you've actually been able to enjoy the last few weeks of sleep. Seeing as how it no longer is winter the cold air that would send the lavender mare to your side and basically push you from the bed with a lack of space has now been stopped. Instead Twilight now has a reason to stay away from you unless you both want to wake up more or less in a pool of sweat.
You feel your lips stretch as the thought rolls through your mind, ya it's the weather...there's no way its because i'm hot stuff.
With the dumb smile now across your face you adjust your neck to no longer pull on the back of your mane as you let your morning start up.
...Bad move, "Huffff!!!" Your body springs up from the deeply warming and inviting bed as a weight comes to drop over your uninformed midsection. Your eyes immediately dart to the mare beside your bed still holding her horn to a purple glow.
"What are you doing I woke you up ten minutes ago?" The point of Twilight's horn comes clear as you notice her rapid paced mane brush running through her toned and shaded mane. "Come on we still have to eat breakfast."
You groan to her words as you move the satchel to the spot beside you, its at this point the other thought the bird chirp brought comes back to your mind...Violet's magic test is soon....
A sigh comes over you as the sound of Twilight's hooves tap to the wood around the bed as she begins to mutter something to herself, no doubt run through some kind of a mental check list she's prepared.
With a slight yawn you tilt your head on the pillows behind you as you look to the mare randomly pulling her usual morning things, "Why are we in a rush, Violet's test is not until tomorrow?"
Your comment sends Twilight's ear to flick as she turns her head back to you, "Why are we in a rush?"
Here it comes you just blink to her tone as she brings her hoof to her chest and pokes her head a little towards where you lay in the bed, "Because, Violet's test may be tomorrow but that doesn't mean we can't arrive there early." She rolls her eyes as her superior knowledge of the world continues, "...I don't want Violet stressed at ALL for her test." An almost forced giggle comes from Twilight as she quickly trots over towards the end table on her side of the bed were the stack of books lay she's been reading the last few nights, "...Every pony gets nervous for a test! A test is something so important!"
Twilight's hoof extends to you with a smile as she hoovers the books to her with her rushed tone continuing, "...And this test-OH boy this test could be the most important test Violet would ever take."
You squint to her comment as you watch the at least ten pounds of books being stuffed into the satchel you moved from your body earlier, "Uh, Twilight...you sure you're not the one that's being stressed?"
"ME?" Twilight gives a laugh to the comment as she quickly shakes her head, "Oh no no no, I am not stressed, I am calm and cool."
You shake your head a little to her comment as she quickly darts back towards something else in the room, you've noticed Twilight acting a little more rushed the last few days and you've also noticed she's become a little more quick on sentences. Normal thinking would tell you it's because she's stressed for Violet, but then again normal is never something that's simple.
Twilight's tongue sticks out a little as she squints her eyes to pushing the overstuffed satchel's button lock shut, "Ah there we go." As her words end and the bag is floated back to rest on the bed the lavender mare's fast voice comes back to you, "Come on, you haven't even packed yet."
You blow to the comment as you start to shift from the bed, "Pff a toothbrush and...well what else? It's not cold in Canterlot is it?" You hold your question as you look to the mare.
She cocks her head almost annoyed to the dumb comment, "No? Winter has been over for two and a half weeks now."
You shrug her tone off as you think, pony weather is controlled by flying horses...I think my comment was valid.; as the thought holds to your mind you move your hooves to the refreshing wood floor.
"And you need to bring more than just a toothbrush." Twilight's horn sparks up without a hesitation as the unmade bed covers and sheets begins to float over it.
You blink to her comment as you speak up, "Like what?"
"Uh, toothpaste goes good with a toothbrush." Twilight shoots a smile to you as her horn's glow continues to chime through the room.
You nod your head to her words as you think, oh so Twilight's got jokes today? Looking over her proud smile to what she thinks was really funny brings your mind to realize you're correct.
Twilight's voice cuts you off before you can speak up, "OH and you need to bring your own mane brush."
"Ya ya, i'll bring my own mane brush Rarity...wouldn't want your brush getting my mane in it.." You shoot back your own smile to your comment as you wait for her quick response.
"Cute...And um, pack something nice?" Her normal mooring confidence drops as her sentence rolls on. It takes you a second to remember what you two talked about but you nod your head once you do, "Alright."
Your comment ends along with Twilight's magic as the sound of tiny hooves slowly clapping to the house turn your head.
The light purple filly's eyes are only half closed still not use to the week long routine of getting up so early. The filly's sight in the door brings Twilight's trot back up as she moves towards her, "Alright sleepy head lets get you ready, tomorrow's a big day for you."
Violet blinks to the comment as her eyes widen a little, her hooves come up quick as her words spell out.
You nod your head to the light purple filly as you speak up, "Your right Violet, mommy did get us up for nothing."
Twilight turns her head to you as her trot continues, "You know that's not true, it's better to not be late...plus we can get to my parents sooner." The lavender mare's eyes comes back to the still sleepy looking filly as she trots past her, "Come on sweetie lets get you ready."
Violet's ears flops down a little as she follows after the mare, still not wanting to be up right now. A smile slightly crosses your face as you think to yourself, maybe Violet's not fully mini Twilight...
You hold the thought as you turn back to the other empty bag on the dresser, but the thought comes to an end as you float the satchel up to you while your mind drifts to what your next two days have in store for the little filly.
The chime of your magic holds to the room around you as you sigh, it's not that you don't want Violet doing Celestia's test...but at the same time you just can't believe the last few weeks passed so fast.
It takes you a moment to push the thought to the back of your mind as you trot towards where your stuff is in the room.
