Equestria High
Chapter 8: A very Sparkle birthday
Previous ChapterNext ChapterA few months went by for the girls. They were now on their Christmas vacation. For Twilight's parents, it was a special time of year. It was special for them because Twilight was born on Christmas day. It was the best Christmas present Velvet and Night Light had gotten. Twilight was never told this, until this year. Twilight walked in the door with two cups of hot chocolate in her hands, one for her mom, and one for her dad. "Thanks, sweetie." Night Light hugged Twilight. She smiled.
"Mom, you were going to tell me why Christmas is so special for our family today, right?" Twilight asked her mom. Night Light looked at Velvet.
"Oh that's right, I did. Pull up a seat, honey." Velvet said. Twilight pulled up a chair and sat down. "Now, this might be a bit shocking and a bit exciting." Velvet sighed. "Twilight, remember the day we had you? Well, that day was Christmas day." Velvet smiled. The surprised look on Twilight's face answered for her.
"I was born on Christmas? The actual holiday?" Twilight asked, starting to get a bit excited. Velvet nodded.
"It was the best gift me and Velvet could ever ask for, Twily." Night Light smiled. Twilight got up and hugged her parents. Then, the doorbell rang. Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Sunset were outside the door. Twilight opened the door and smiled.
"Hey girls!" Twilight squealed in delight as Rainbow Dash and the others walked in. Sunset smiled and hugged Twilight.
"Happy birthday, Twilight." Sunset said. Twilight smiled.
"18 now, sugarcube, how's it feel?" Applejack asked. Twilight still couldn't believe she was 18 now.
"It feels spectacular!" Twilight laughed in delight. Pinkie Pie jumped right to the T.V. to see more of pony her.
"Ooh! Ooh! Twilight! Pony me is ice-skating!" Pinkie laughed. Twilight came over to the T.V. with Pinkie and gasped at the sight of a purple unicorn with purple eyes just like hers, and the same pink star and white stars on her.
"Is that me?" Twilight gasped. Pinkie nodded, then laughed after pony Twilight fell on the ice.
"Oh man, our pony-selves are hilarious!" Pinkie Pie laughed. Spike was watching his dragon-self.
"Oh! There's Professor Whooves!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, pointing to a brown stallion with a hourglass cutie mark on the T.V.
"I think it's Doctor Whooves on that show, RD." Applejack smiled. Rainbow Dash gave her a look of seriousness, then burst out laughing.
"Oh! Twilight! I just remembered! Girls! Twilight's gifts!" Rainbow said, The other girls jumped in nervousness and scrambled outside to get Twilight's gifts. Rarity's was purple nail polish, Rainbow's was the newest Daring Do book, Applejack's was a photo of when she, Twilight, and the girls first met, Pinkie's was earrings like Twilight's star on her skirt, Fluttershy's gift was a new hair brush, and Sunset's gift was something very special. Sunset's gift was her old jacket that she always wore, but it was purple and blue.
"Sunset, thank you." Twilight smiled, hugging Sunset ans the girls. They smiled as well. Just then, the doorbell rang again, and Flash Sentry was outside.
"Hey, just came by to wish Twilight a happy birthday." Flash smiled, waving to Twilight's parents, "and give her this." Flash handed Twilight a small slip of paper saying Spring Prom invite. Twilight gasped. "I was wondering if you'd like to go." Flash said, rubbing his head. Twilight was in tears of joy.
"Oh Flash, I'd love to go." Twilight smiled, and hugged him. Flash smiled. Twilight retracted quickly, blushing a deep red. "Thank you." Twilight said, still blushing.
"Spring Prom is a few months away right?" Velvet asked, looking at the invite.
"I got these two in advance." Flash said, smiling. "If it's OK for me to go with your daughter." Flash asked.
"Flash, you are more than welcome to go to prom with our daughter." Night Light smiled. "Come in, come in, this is Twilight's 18th birthday party after all." He said. Flash walked in, and gasped. Twilight's house was so wonderful, he didn't know what to say, until he saw an orange pegasus with a blue mane and tail, and the cutie mark was the same mark on his shirt. "No way, that's me?" Flash laughed. "Awesome!" He whooped. Twilight was still blushing, so Rarity helped Twilight upstairs.
"Girls, help me with Ms. Juliet here." Rarity smiled. The girls did. Twilight was the most happiest of all because she was going to spring prom with the blue haired guitar player of her dreams.
