He shifted into something warm next to him, though he couldn't get back to sleep no matter what. That's when the warmth beside him moved and he felt a breeze hit him from that side. As his eyes opened to see where the warmth went, they widened at the scenery before he remembered that he had fallen asleep after swimming.

Winona said, walking out from behind a tree giving him a quick nuzzle.

"What was that for?" He asked, both of them slightly blushing.

Winona asked, quickly recovering and started wagging her tail.

"Yeah, it was fun," he said though his blush grew as he looked into her eyes again, and remembered how he felt last night when he looked at them in the moon and starlight.

Winona asked, giving him a quick nudge.

"N-no reason," he answered.

Winona rolled her eyes. She asked again.

"Like I said, no reason." He replied.

Winona said, making him give a sigh of relief, and he watched her go back into the trees.

"Okay, what time is it anyways?" He asked.

Winona replied, and once she was out of sight he gave another sigh of relief.

"What is up with me?" He muttered to himself walking over to the pond to get a drink. "First last night with looking at her eyes, and they took my breath away for some reason, and now I can't look at her eyes without thinking about it." Sitting there, he pondered over it before a frog popped up out of the water. "Oh, hey."

The frog asked.

"That would be me, name's Spike." He introduced himself.

Kermit said, looking a little guilty.

"Great, though I don't suppose you know the answer to my problem? I mean, like I said for some reason last night when I looked her in the eyes while she was looking at the stars, I couldn't breath. Now I can't seem to look her in the eyes without thinking about it," He said.

Kermit asked, and he could have sworn he saw the frog raise an eyebrow.

"Why not? I mean there really couldn't be any harm," he replied shrugging his shoulders.

Kermit asked.

"Alright, I promise," he replied.

Kermit said.

"Well yeah I like her, she seems like a good friend." He said, tilting his head in slight confusion.

Kermit asked, making him go red.

"Woah, look man I already like someone like that. That and no offense, but she's a dog." He said.

He hung his head. Just like that, Kermit the frog dove back into the water leaving him to his thoughts.

Winona said, making him jump.

"It's fine, but I was just talking to a frog named Kermit." He replied, and looked at her again. "So, what are we gonna eat?"

Winona said, tossing him an apple where he caught it in the air with his mouth, and as he started to eat he looked back at her to see her staring at him.

"What?" He asked.

Winona said, and started to eat her own apple. She asked after they both finished eating.

"Yeah, let's go and thanks." He said giving her a grateful smile. "For everything last night, hope we can do it again sometime soon."

Winona said, giving him a smile back.

"Alright," he said following her. "Her eyes are kind of pretty," he muttered under his breath, and bumped into Winona. "Sorry, wasn't paying attention."

Winona said, and as he looked up he could see a small blush that he thought was because she felt bad about stopping.

"I think it was kind of both of our faults then, you suddenly stopping and me not paying attention." He said, laughing a little.

Winona said as she started up a jog.

They continued at that pace for a good twenty minutes before emerging from the apple orchard and the Apple family house came into view. Neither one of them had spoken a word since they bumped into each other, though it really wasn't an awkward silence. It was much more comfortable, and as they walked up to the porch they saw Applejack waiting.

"There ya are girl, you go off to your secret spot again?" Applejack asked.

He couldn't help but snicker a little, and Applejack gave him a confused look.

"S-she said yup," he said holding back his laughter knowing all Applejack probably heard was a bark.

"If ya say so Spike, and I really am sorry about last night. I came to get ya, but you weren't here so I figured Winona must have come and kept ya company last night, right?" Applejack asked.

"Y-yeah, she did and she showed me a few things around the part of the farm you guys barely use." He answered.

"That's good to hear, just don't go telling Twi I let you spend the night outside. If I know her, she's probably still stressing out about her little problem, whatever it is." Applejack said.

"This coming from the Element of Honesty?" He said.

"It's not a lie if you don't give her the full details of what happened, but go ahead and tell her if ya want. I was just worried it might upset her, but I have to get to work. Come on Winona," Applejack said. "You know your way back Spike, I'll see ya soon and behave yourself boy..." He could see her wince a little. "Sorry."

"It's fine, I guess I'll see ya around." He said, giving a slightly depressed sigh.

Winona said.

"Sure thing Winona, and see ya around." He said, feeling a little better as he started walking towards town.
