I sat in class with a bored look on my face,leaning on my hand. Me being me I had already learnt everything that was included in this class so I finished my work in less than 5 minutes. I ended up shifting my gaze to Sunset who had her headphone on and was moving her head to the beat of the song she was listening to while she worked. I couldn't help but let a smile curl onto my lips as I watched her. She looked so cute doing that it despite her firey nature. She lifted her head up and turned to look around,her eyes resting on me. She shot me a smile and motioned for me to come over to her to which I willingly agreed to with a nod as I stood up and walked over to my crush.

"Hey,Sunset whatcha need?" I asked as I leant against the wall by her desk and crossed my arms over my chest. Sunset just raised an eyebrow at my attempt to be cool and collected. Emphisis on attempt. Seriously. I'm not cool. At least not as cool as Sunset.

"You don't look comfortable leaning against the wall there," Sunset said with a very amused tone,puting her headphones around her neck before leaning on her hand as she looked at me with a teasing grin. She was right I was very uncomfortable but I would never admit it.

"What do you mean? I'm very comfortable,"

"Are you sure about that?"

"You don't believe me?"

"Not on your life,Sparky," Sunset smirked,pulling a spare chair out with her jacket on and leant back in her own chair "Come on just sit down and help me with this equation,"

I gave in and sat in the chair next to her. I heard the faint sound from her headphones change from something that sounded like a soul type song to a rocky metal type song. I stopped and tried to listen to it and this didn't go unnoticed by. She took the headphones from around her neck and put them over my head while she quickly did the equation she asked me to help with. Wait...oh no. Oh god no. She noticed me looking at her before she finally looked at me! She didn't need my help she was teasing me! Why that scheming-

"We are covering this song tonight at the Rainbooms concert by the way," Sunset said after pushing part of the headphone cup to the side a little. This was quite an emotional song I'm suprised Rainbow caved and let her do it. I was too busy paying attention to my own jumbled thoughts to notice her say something else.

"I'm sorry what was that?" I asked which only cause her to blush and chew on her lip. She fiddled with her pencil before finally looking back up at me with a cute little smile

"Do you want to come to the concert tonight? You know...as my date..?" She asked in a mixture of a bold and shy tone which I'm not really sure how that worked but never the less it did. I froze up because my crush just asked me on a date. I thought this kind of thing happened in romcoms but here I was. I then realised I hadn't responded in a while to which Sunset got the idea that I didn't want to go with her which caused her face to drop.

"I'm sorry. I guess I thought I had a chance dont-"

"No no! I want to go with you!" I said quickly and excitedly then realised how desperate that sounded. "I mean..I'd love to acompny you tonight,Sunny,"

"I look forward to it,Sparky," Sunset said cooly and smiled brightly at me which I returned.

I stood backstage as the Rainbooms prepared for their show. I looked down at me feet until I left a gentle hand lift up my chin

"You shouldn't look down so much. I want to see those pretty eyes of yours," The voice said to me. I shifted my eyes upwards and saw Sunset to which I boldly replied to her statement with just a tight hug. I could tell she was caught off guard but she slipped her arms around me and hugged me back none the less. I rested my head on her chest and smiled softly as Sunset sighed happily. I could never really get a nice moment like this with Sunset and have it last for longer than a minute. But then..I guess that means I can treasure moments like this.

"Hey Sparky?"

"Hm?" I responded,pulling myself back from the hug slightly to look up at her. She had a small blush on her cheeks and looked away. Thats weird. I mean it wasn't hot or anything out here. She turned her head back to look at me and bit her lip hard before I noticed her leaning towards me. Was I dreaming? I had to be dreaming because there was no way she was about to do what I think shes about to do. I responded by also leaning forward until our I could feel her hot breath on my lips. We were so close. We are going to-

Suddenly a massive crash cause the whole stadium to rumble and shake,causing us to fall away from each other. I fell flat on my back and closed my eyes as I felt the full force of the impact. Groaning I rubbed my back and opened my eyes,scanning the area to try and find Sunset but didn't see her. I sprang up to my feet and ran over to the others.

"Have you guys seen Sunset?!" I asked in a state of panic,looking at them with concern. The looks on the faces only confirmed my fears.

"I'm sorry darling I can't say that we have seen her.." Rarity spoke softly but sadly,gripping onto Applejacks arm as they tried to grasp everything that was going on.

"Damnit!" I hissed before spriting off down the walkway of the now empty stadium,ignoring the yells from the girls. I had to find her. I couldn't let anything happen to her I...I wouldn't be able to live with myself. I ran as fast as my legs could take me down the dimmly lit street. A few street laps ahead of me burst and blackout leaving nothing but a dark road ahead of me but I didn't care. Finding Sunset was my top priority at the moment so I kept running through the darkness. I suddnely came to a halt when I had run out of breath and curled my hands into a fist,cursing to myself "Sunset..."

"Run little rabbit..." A voice behind spoke menacingly. I froze up completely in a state of pure fear as I heard a growl behind me. I couldn't move even if I wanted to,hearing the footsteps approch closer and closer until I could feel the hairs on the back on my neck stand up on end. I could hear the jaw of this myserious creature unhinge and knew I was a goner. But..all I felt was a sharp wind and a loud crash. I finally managed to move even if it was barely but I managed to turn slowly but surely to see what had saved me from my demise. I was confronted by a bright light that lit up the whole of the darkened street and after rubbing my eyes behind my glasses I looked back up to see..her.

The Yellow Bolt.
