Marshmallow Heart was just getting off the train into Ponyville. She was dragging her luggage behind her with her jaws, trying to use the utmost of her strength to just get out of the way so others could get off the train. It hit the ground with a 'thunk' and she continued to drag it. She hadn't even packed that much, but it seemed that her white suitcase was practically bursting!

"Need some help?"

She looked up at the sound of a familiar voice and saw her sister and her husband. Now, her sister was a very beautiful mare and this automatically made Marshmallow Heart a little more than jealous. She had a white body with a long pearl pink and baby blue mane. She wasn't a pegasus, so that made her a little happier because she couldn't out-stand her in the way of her wings.

Although her husband definitely made up for what Cotton Candy seemed to lack. He was buff in the chest and tall, his spiked mane seeming to sit perfectly around his tall horn. The unicorn had a orange and red mane and a brown body. His name was Flame and he was called that for a reason. His mane made him look like he was flaming all the time, and Marshmallow would never admit it, but he was hot enough to set her cheeks ablaze.

"Please?" Marshmallow asked with a small and awkward smile.

"I got it." Flame chuckled and lifted it up with his magic. "Come on, let's get you settled."

"It's good to see you again, sis." Cotton Candy put a leg around her shoulders before they started walking and then smiled at her. "So, are you excited for the gala?"

Marshmallow paled at the mere thought of it. "No, not really. Do I have to go?"

"I will send you right back to that city of yours if you don't come with us." Cotton Candy threatened and then playfully bumped her flank against her sister's. "I doubt it will be that bad, Marshy. I even had us dresses custom made. You look to be the same size as me."

"Ugh." Marshmallow shook her head. "You really thought of everything, huh?"

As they headed into Ponyville, the time was filled with awkward and idle conversation between the three of them. She had always gotten along with her sister. Ever since they were fillies, they did pretty much everything together. There was really nothing they did apart, except for sleep. Although, that all changed when their mother died. It was sad and hospitalized death that tore the sisters apart. Cotton Candy quickly moved to Ponyville and Marshmallow Heart stayed in Fillydelphia.

When they got to the home, Flame showed her to the room she would be staying in for a few days and then gave her some space and time to unpack. She shut the door when she got the chance and started to take out the things she needed out. With ease, she slid a hot pink heart necklace around her neck and smiled at her reflection in the mirror. That was a gift from their mother. Cotton Candy got one too, but never seemed to wear it.

"Hey, Marshy?"

"Come in."

She turned to see Cotton Candy step in the room with a small smile on her face. The mare approached her and her smile broadened at the sight of the necklace, but her eyes went back up to meet her sister's.

"Want to go and get the dresses adjusted?" She asked, her bright blue eyes glimmering.

"Well, I should be the only one who needs it adjusted." Marshmallow looked at little confused. "Why would you...?"

"I'm gonna have a foal, sis!" She exclaimed suddenly.

"R-Really?" Marshmallow practically choked over her breath. "Well, congratulations! W-wow!"

As they exchanged a giggling hug, Marshmallow felt her jealousy increase ten fold. She knew her sister and Flame had wanted a foal as soon as they got together, but things seemed to prevent them from having one. Marshmallow wanted one herself but she didn't have a husband or even a stallionfriend, so that kind of halted things on her end. Now that her sister was going to have one, she was going to be left in the dark yet again. She tried to remain smiling as she let her sister go.

"Does Flame know?" She asked with a smile.

"I just told him, like, twenty minutes before you came." She laughed and bobbed her head.

"That's amazing."

Cotton Candy must have noticed the sour note in her voice, because she frowned a bit. "I'm sure you'll have one someday Marshy, you just have to find the right stallion first."

"I-I know." Marshmallow nodded and then forced a grin. "So, let's go get those dresses altered! I really hope you chose something I like."

"Don't worry," Her sister brushed it off and grinned herself. "You'll adore it!"
