Finding Destiny

As Rose and Twilight neared the lunchroom Rose looked at Sunset and asked “Are you ready to face the school and ask our friends to help with the wedding? I am ready but I don’t want to force you to do anything you don’t want to do my love. After all, you hold one half of my soul and Lucky Rose in Equestria holds the other half of my soul.”

Sunset blushed brighter than the setting sun and said in a very embarrassed tone of voice “That is the sweetest, most thoughtful and most embarrassing thing I have ever heard said about me. To answer your question my love yes I am ready. I just hope our friends are willing to help with the wedding because I thought of the perfect date. It will be a bit of a rush but I am thinking exactly one month from today under the setting sun. I know you are worried about the money but don’t be. You see I know how much money you have set aside but for the wedding, I am going to pay for everything. You see when I ran away through the portal to this world I had a pouch with five hundred bits on me. When I first got to this world I knew I would need money so I went to a coin shop to see how much a single bit was worth and they said that the coin itself was pure gold and weighed about two pounds. But it was the rarity of the coin itself that they said boosted its price. They told me the price for the coin was around fifty thousand and to this day out of the five hundred that I had I have only sold four of twenty of them. I have lived off of ten of them this past four years. The other half I put in a savings account to accrue more money. To this day in the bank, I have close to one million five hundred thousand saved up. I’m planning to use that money for our wedding. What do you think my love?”

Rose shocked to hear that Sunset Shimmer the one she loves had so much money saved up said “My dearest Sunset I love that idea. As for the date, it will be a tight squeeze but I think it is an absolutely perfect idea. I just hope our friends agree to help us out. You know I just thought of the perfect DJ for the wedding. What do you think about having Vinyl Scratch and Octavia to do the music?”

Sunset’s eyes widened as she looked at Rose in surprise and said “ As a matter of fact Rose I was thinking the same thing as you are. I hope they will agree to do it. Anyway, let’s go see the rest of the school shall we.”

Rose didn’t say anything all she did was take Sunset’s hand and together they walked into the lunchroom. As soon as Rose and Sunset entered the lunchroom there was an extremely loud cheer of Congratulations Rose and Sunset. Both Rose and Sunset knew that they wouldn’t be able to get a word in until the school calmed down waited and sure enough five minutes later the room was completely silent. Rose looked at everyone and said “first off Sunset and I want to thank you for your acceptance of our engagement. Second could Octavia and Vinyl Scratch please step forward.” Rose and Sunset waited a couple minutes while the two they named stepped to the front of the crowd. Once the two were in front of Rose and Sunset Rose continued “Octavia and Vinyl Scratch Sunset Shimmer and I would be very honored if the two of you would be the music entertainers at the wedding. Also to everyone here, while Sunset and I were walking to the lunchroom we decided the wedding will be in exactly a month’s time at sunset. Also to Chrysalis, Snips, Snails and Speedy Sunset and I want to invite you all to the wedding. Anyways Octavia and Vinyl will you do us the honor of being the music entertainers at the wedding?”

Both Octavia and Vinyl looked at each other and nodded. Then Octavia looked at Sunset and Morning Rose and said “ Sunset Shimmer and Morning Rose Vinyl and I would be honored to play at your wedding. As long as Vinyl and I can have a dance together. After all, as everyone here knows Vinyl and I are dating. Anyway, congratulations on your engagement and we wish you both all the happiness you could ever want.”

At Octavia’s words, everyone dispersed to spend time with their friends at their regular tables. Sunset and Rose walked over to their friends and once they sat down Rose looked at everyone and said “A.J.Sunset and I would be honored if you and your family would cook the meals for the reception and if you would grant us the honor of having the wedding at Sweet Apple Acres. Rainbow Dash, Sunset and I would be honored if you would be our ring bearer. As for you Pinkie Pie we would like you to be in charge of the wedding cake. Finally Fluttershy, First I want to thank you for everything you have done for me. If it wasn’t for you reaching out to me and giving me a chance that first time we met I would not be here now. Mainly because before you showed up I was planning to kill myself that night. However, because you reached out to me I was able to hope for a better future and stay alive. In order to thank you for everything, you have done it would mean the world to me if you would be my maid of honor. So what do you all say?”

Everyone looked at each other before nodding and together except for Fluttershy said “Sunset and Rose we would be honored to do what you have asked of us.”

Rose noticing that Fluttershy hadn’t answered her looked at Fluttershy and said “ So what do you say Fluttershy will you be my maid of honor? You are the only one I want to have as my maid of honor and to be honest you are my very best friend. It wouldn’t be the same without you as my maid of honor.”

Fluttershy embarrassed looked at Rose and said “I would be honored to be your maid of honor. After all, you are one of my best friends and so I can make your wedding day as perfect as I can I will do what I can.”

Rose and Sunset were so happy that their friends agreed to their request started to cry tears of happiness. Soon as they were finished crying everyone started to eat their lunch. As they were eating they were approached by Celestia and Luna who both had huge smiles on their faces. Worried Rose looked at Sunset to see her shaking. Rose put her arm around Sunset and whispered in her ear “it’s going to be alright my love.” feeling Sunset stop shaking Rose and Sunset looked at Celestia and Luna as they finished their approach.
