When Twilight woke up she knew this was the day she was going to confess. Not that kind of confession though. Not the romantic kind that most people thought of when they think of confessions. No, it was going to be the day she confessed to herself that she, Amelia Pandora Sparkle “Twilight”, was NOT in love Keanna Rachelle Pie “Pinkie”. That they were just friends and that’s all there is too it and this friendly outing would prove it. No more teasing from Sophia and Chrissy. Stretching her arms and looked out of her window by her bed to see the weather. The sun had just risen and Twilight could tell it was going to be a perfect day. Sighing, she rolled out of bed and made her bed before moving into the bathroom. Looking in the mirror she flinched a little at the sight of her hair. It was sticking out so much she looked like she had super saiyan hair. And was that drool on her check?! Geez she looked like a wreck this morning. Grabbing her hairbrush she got to work pulling out her knots.
Minutes after an attempt at taming her hair Twilight realized her mere brush could not fix the problem that was her hair, she admitted defeat and jumped into the shower. At least the water helped her wake up a bit better. Turning off the water and grabbing her towel, Twilight stepped out of the shower, wrapping the towel around her body and plugged in her hairdryer. As she blow-dried her hair she was able to hear the telltale scraping of claws across the apartment’s hardwood floors. Her dog as always would come running to her side whenever the hairdryer started running. He would then proceed to bark and growl at it as though it was attacking her. And today was no exception. Spike came barreling through the door and began barking viciously at the offending object.
Giggling Twilight said “Oh Spike thank you so much for protecting your poor and defenseless owner. I don’t know what I would do without you”. And she went back to drying her hair, glad that the dryer muffled Spikes barking. The minute she turned off the dryer Spike instantly stopped barking and walked out of the room, probably back to his bed. Walking back into her bedroom she walked over to her dresser and began to search through it for an outfit for her outing. Grumbling to herself she wished she had better clothes instead of her boring ones. She always seemed to wear the same thing. And her wardrobe proved that theory. Deciding she would have to dig deeper to find one of Sopia’s ‘presents’. That girl loved to tease her about her nonexistent love life and while it was semi-true, she didn’t need any of her friends clothing advice. Not after the Incident, that still made her shudder and Samantha laugh at the mere mention of it. But her efforts were not fruitless and she pulled out of her dresser with a few decent pieces of clothes worthy enough for this outing. Spreading them out on her bed Twilight stared at them judging and scrutinizing every seam of the clothing to pick the best outfit.
Eventually, actually it was twenty minutes later, Twilight was looking at herself in the mirror. She had picked out a three-quarter length sleeved shirt that was a peach color with white dots on it and had paired it with a black pencil skirt. The outfit had looked better on the bed then on her. She turned around again and let out a frustrated sigh. NOTHING looked good on her. But after looking at the clock and seeing she was due to meet Pinkie in twenty minutes she decided the outfit was good enough. Tugging on her socks she ran into the bathroom one more time and combed her hair again. She was almost out of her bedroom before she ran back in and looked at her hair harder, gripping the edge of the sink, leaning closer to the mirror. Deciding that she had to do something with her hair she dug though her drawer but only came up with a few barrettes and hair ties. About to admit defeat on her looks she groaned and thought could her day get worse. Of course she shouldn’t be worried about her look that much she was going to spend time with a friend; she wasn’t going on a date or anything. So why was she acting so stupid? Smacking herself mentally she grabbed one of the hair ties and pulled her hair up into a ponytail and headed towards her kitchen, passing a sleeping Spike on the way. Muttering to herself she looked towards her pile of shoes and cursed herself for not organizing them like she had been meaning to. This would set her back at LEAST three minutes. Sifting through her shoe pile till she found one of the shoes she was looking for, a tan oxford, before continuing her search for its partner. After finding it a minute later she tugged them on and grabbed her bag and keys from off the counter before running out the door. And then running back to lock her door.
Finally she made it to her car, her beat up but still running 1994 Honda Accord, unlocking the door and getting it. She turned the key in the ignition and was about to pull out until she remembered there was such things as seatbelts. After putting her seatbelt on she quickly drove towards the meeting spot, a little café called Mocha. Literally. It was a better name then one café Pinkie had worked at it had been called Crapuccino. Yeah it said a lot about the quality of their coffee. But back to driving to her destination with having her heart jump out of her chest. Geez she was acting like a schoolgirl who was going on her first date WHICH SHE WAS NOT. Nope just a friendly outing with a friend whom she had no romantic attraction to at all. No matter how much her heart beat when their hands touched or the numerous totally not friendly thought that entered her mind when they were alone together. Yep totally just friends. No physical attraction at all.
Finally she pulled up to the café and found a parking spot she walked towards the door to see Pinkie rocking on her heels looking at nothing. Damn she’s cute. I MEAN IT IN A TOTALLY FRIEND WAY! I got a little closer and was able to see what she was wearing. She was wearing a pink dress with yellow edges and what looked to be blue flats; it was something she would wear any day. Unlike my thought out outfit. Pinkie saw me at the time in all my blushing glory. And started to excitedly wave her hands around with a signature Pinkie smile. God how am I gonna survive this with her looking so cute.
“HEY TWILY, IM OVER HERE” she yelled to her from five feet away.
“Hello Keanna, I see you're usual self” score she was able to talk normally, even if it was a bit too uptight for her friend.
“Oh Twily there’s no need to be so formal” Pinkie said “Or else I’ll have to call you Amelia for the rest of your LIFE”
“Didn’t need the emphasis on life Pinkie”
“YAY Twily’s back to normal”
“And stop calling me Twily”
“Fine spoil sport, now” Pinkie said as she grabbed Twilights hand, which resulted in a jolt like electricity to run between the two “Let’s go inside and get a table.”
Ignoring the jolt she was led dumbly by Pinkie to a table.
“So Twilight how’s life treating you” Pinkie asked her after they sat down.
“Well I’m still working at Celestia’s Law Firm in town. Just recently finished a domestic abuse case. I still live in my apartment with Spike and that’s about it”
“Are you sure there isn’t anything else you want to tell me” Pinkie asked in a singsong voice.
“No, but if you’re trying to become like Chrissy and Sophia then the answer’s no” Twilight deadpanned.
“Fine, you should try to find someone to be your special someone Twi. You won’t have the same young looks forever”
“What are you talking about Pinkie?!”
“I’m just repeating what Rarity wanted to tell you”
“Well Sophia’s a butt and you shouldn’t listen to her”
“Whatever you say Twily”
“Don’t call me Twily” Twilight said but she didn’t really mean it. She was happy everything was starting to feel normal. Picking up the menu she skimmed the items and half listened as Pinkie prattled on.
“Well, I’m still waitressing at Sugarcube Corner but I’ve started baking now too. I made these yummy pastries yesterday. They sold really quickly so the Cakes said I could help bake now and so I think that will be really fun. I also have been trying to find a different apartment cause mine is really sucky but waaaaaaay too expensive. But there is literally NOTHING! I’ll have to live in that dump for a while until I find another apartment. Oh and the other day I was out with Sophia and Jaki and they were helping me get ready for our friend date…”
Wait was Twilight listening to Pinkie right. Did the words our and date appear in the same sentence. Twilight could feel her heart pick up speed as she asked “Did you just say were on a date?”
“Well yeah, a FRIEND date, you know when two friends go out and have fun and stuff”
Twilight felt her heart rate return to normal a bit “Oh for a second there Pinkie I thought that you thought this was a date”
“Well it kinda is”
“Wha-“Twilight began but was interrupted by the waitress.
“May I take your orders” She asked and then snapped loudly on her gum.
“Ummm” Twilight began still in a bit of shock from the prior event.
“I’ll have your fancy grilled cheese-“Pinkie began.
“You mean the three cheese grilled cheese?” she asked with another loud snap.
“Uh yeah and-“
“I’m sorry miss but its breakfast and we don’t serve that now” another snap.
“That sucks you should serve it all the time”
“Uh-huh” this time it was a chomp.
“Ok then since I can’t get fancy grilled cheese at eight in the morning then I’ll get the egg and cheese breakfast sandwich thingy and the hot chocolate with extra whip cream” Thank goodness she didn’t get coffee.
“Ok, what would you like miss” it was a snap again.
“Oh uh well” Twilight said as she skimmed the menu again “I guess I’ll get the Greek yogurt parfait and a caramel iced coffee”
“Ok, will that be all?”
“Wait can I get a caramel coffee too-“
“Yes that would be all” Twilight said to the waitress before Pinkie could get some coffee.
“Aw Twily, I wanted to have some coffee too” Pinkie whined.
“You don’t need any” Twilight deadpanned. Sinking lower in her seat Pinkie tried to pull off a pout and damn there she was looking cute again.
“What were you talking about before the waitress came and took our order” Twilight asked hoping to get her to talk.
Pinkie brightened a little and sat back up “Oh you mean how this is kinda like a date?”
“Yes exactly” Twilight answered and waited for the answer.
“Well a date is when two people who like each other a lot go out somewhere and talk” Pinkie answered and Twilight was a but taken aback about that response cause truthfully that kinda was what a date was.
“Well it’s still not a date” Twilight said even though a part of her was practically screaming YES.
“Why, we both like each other a lot and were out somewhere talking” Pinkie asked.
“Well uh I mean I do like you a lot Pinkie it’s just um I don’t think this would be considered to others as a date. I mean you don’t like me like that” Twilight stammered out.
“Oh” Pinkie said as if she understood and even though Twilight felt her heart hurt a bit after saying that she knew it was the right thing to say, she hoped.
“Well what if I do” Pinkie practically whispered, she had probably not meant for Twilight to hear but Twilight heard anyway.
Twilight could feel her face heat up and was sure it was as red as a tomato.
“Wha- What did you just say?”
“Oh um” Pinkie said looking up and then back down at her lap, with red tinging her cheeks, “Oh I said nothing important, you know silly Pinkie says things she doesn’t mean” and the Pinkie laughed but it was obviously a forced one.
“Pinkie-“Twilight began gently but at that time the waitress chose to come with food.
“Oh food’s here” Pinkie said in an off voice before she began to eat. Twilight looked down at her food, wishing she could just shrug off what happened but she was sure of what she heard and she wanted answers. But as she looked up she saw Pinkie was busily eating her sandwich as fast as she could. Sighing Twilight picked up her spoon and began to eat her yogurt in the complete silence.
“Well” Pinkie said a few moments later “Looks like I’m done, I probably should head back to the bakery” as she scooted out of her seat.
“See ya” she said as she put a twenty on the table and grabbed her purse and bolted out of the café.
“Wait, Pinkie” Twilight called as she grabbed her purse and ran after the pink haired girl. Chasing her to her car in the parking lot, Twilight was able to grab her wrist and stopping her in her tracks and forcing her to turn around.
“Keanna what the HELL was that” Twilight said with anger in her voice.
“Oh well you see Twily I have to leave to get to the bakery on time so I left enough money for the bill and then left” Pinkie said nervously as she scratched the back of her neck.
“Keanna, you don’t work at the bakery today and don’t you DARE say it changed because the bakery isn’t open today” Twilight practically yelled at Pinkie causing Pinkies open mouth to close.
“And what the hell did you say but told me it was just you being Pinkie, cause Pinkie tells people practically everything, so fess up Keanna, what the hell did you just pull” Twilight practically seethed she was pretty damn angry and she didn’t even know why.
Pinkie just stood staring at Twilight with wide eyes.
“Well” Twilight spit out “Fess up what just happened in there”
She watched as Pinkie stood there staring at the ground refusing to meet her eyes. Sighing Twilight decided she should maybe have tried a different tactic. Pinkie was now probably scared of her or something.
“Listen Keanna” Twilight began while not as harsh as before there was still a bit of edge to her voice “I’m sorry that I hurt your feelings but I want you to answer me”. Pinkie continued to stare down at the ground as if it was the most interesting thing she had ever seen.
“Anna please say something” Twilight asked. She saw Pinkie tense up as if preparing herself for something and then she looked up. The next few seconds seemed to happen in slow motion for Twilight. Pinkie lunged towards Twilight and grabbed the back of her neck bringing Twilight closer to her face, leaned closer to Twilight puckering up her lips and then Pinkie and Twilight kissed in the middle of a café parking lot. One of Pinkie’s hands was on the nape of her next and the other was on her cheek. For a second Twilight hands stayed raised and she stood there with open eyes before she closed her eyes and her hands fell around Pinkies waist. It only lasted a few seconds but Twilight swore it was the best kiss she had ever experienced.
Pinkie stood staring at Twilight as she said “Amelia Pandora Sparkle, you’re the smartest person I know but a compete idot too, and I love you” then she stood and stared hard at Twilight waiting for her response.
For a lack of better words Twilight was dumbfounded. She wasn’t sure what to say and her head swam with different thoughts.
“Oh my god Pinkie said she loves me!”
“No I can’t feel that way she’s my best friend”
“What do I say what do I say”
“Twilight_Brain.ex has stopped working”
“OH MY GOD OH MYGOD OH MY GOD”
“I don’t want to ruin are friendship but I think I have feelings for her too but…”
“What?”
“Geez Amelia answer her before she takes it back your literally standing in a parking lot and you have yet to remove your hands from her waist. Not to mention the fact you’re literally acting like a schoolgirl with a crush right now. I think that’s enough of an answer”
Taking a deep breath Twilight looked Pinkie in the eyes and said “I think I love you too Keanna Rachel Pie”
“Really” Pinkie asked hopefully.
“Really” Twilight said right before she captured Pinkies lips again for a quick kiss.
“I though do have work, so we’ll have to finish this later, you said you needed to find a new apartment” Twilight said as she reached into her purse and found her apartment key.
“Here you can stay with me if your fine with it” Twilight said as she handed the key to Pinkie.
“Of course, we can be roomies” Pinkie said with a wink which resulted in a blushing Twilight.
“Ok well I’ll see you after I get off of work, ok” Twilight said.
“Ok dokie loki, see you then” she said as she planted a kiss on Twilights cheek and then got into her car.
Twilight watched her leave before she walked back to her car. She stood outside of her car for a bit before going inside as she realized that she and Pinkie where now far from just friends. But she was sure that she wasn't sad about that.

Oh look I made a story. I've had some Twinkie or TwiPie feelings lately and had to write a story. But I'm out of practice writing ponies. So you get humans. Yay. If all goes well I'm willing to write more human Twinkie stories.
