Hearts and Hooves Day Magic

Twilight Sparkle put down her book and trotted out the door. She trotted past several stallions but the pressure in her head told her she had to keep going forward. She got to the north edge of Ponyville but the pressure in her head told her to keep going forward, so Twilight took a hot air balloon ride to Canterlot. She followed the pressure until she got to the castle. Was Twilight's true love royalty?

Flash Sentry opened the door. He let Twilight in, knowing she was a friend, not a foe.

"Hey Twilight," Flash Sentry said. He was wearing shiny gold armor.

"Hi Flash Sentry," Twilight said. She felt heat rush to her cheeks and she blushed when Twilight realize Flash Sentry was her true love.

"Are you here to see the Princess?" Flash Sentry asked.

"No, actually I'm here to see you," Twilight said sheepishly.

"Well, I'm on guard duty but we can talk later if you want."

"Can we meet for dinner after your shift is over?"

"Oh sure. Where do you want to eat?" Flash Sentry asked.

"We can meet here, I will bring a picnic," Twilight suggested.

"Alright, I'll see you then,"

"Ok," Twilight said softly.

Flash Sentry shut the castle door with his magic and trotted back to his position. Twilight trotted around Canterlot, she missed her home town and it was nice to see it again. Twilight took a deep breath, smelling the sweet scent of flowers and the aroma of pastries.

"How do I have any chance with Flash Sentry?" Twilight thought aloud. "Wait, I'm a princess now, I do have a chance!" Twilight exclaimed.

A snooty pony scoffed at Twilight, in Canterlot, it isn't normal to see a pony wondering around talking to herself. Twilight ignored the mare and trotted over to a restaurant to get dinner for Flash Sentry and herself. She bought a variety of food because she didn't know what Flash Sentry liked. At the restaurant, there were several couples enjoying lunch together. Twilight let out a sigh, knowing she wouldn't have to be alone much longer. Twilight took their dinner and paid five bits. She trotted over the the Canterlot gardens and picked a variety of flowers.

"These will be perfect," Twilight said, smelling the beautiful flowers. She just couldn't wait for tonight.

"Princess Twilight?" A nearby mare asked.

"Yes?" Twilight said, turning to see the mare.

"I'm Upper Crust, I was at the garden party during your birthday," the mare said.

"Hello," Twilight said, a little unsure I'd what to say.

"I wanted to apologize for calling you dress simple and insulting it," Upper Crust said, dropping to a bow.

"It's fine," Twilight said gratefully.

"Good, maybe it will be my pleasure to see you again some time," Upper Crust said.

Twilight nodded and trotted off, she sure did get treated different as a princess.
