Chapters A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 1: Tending The Garden
Sunset Shimmer walked through the halls of Canterlot High, a bright smile on her face. It had been exactly one month since the incident she and her friends had dubbed "Forgotten Friendship" Where an envious young girl named Wallflower Blush had attempted to erase everyone's good memories of the red-headed Equestrian turned teen. And for a brief moment Sunset had even lost her own memories. Thankfully however as in the past the magic of friendship had won out the day.
Turning the corner she found her friends congregating in their usual spot as she gave them a wave.
"Heh, bout time yea got here slowpoke." Rainbow Dash teased giving Sunset a cocky grin.
"Yeah, Rarity's been havin a fit thinkin were gonna be late ta that fancy smancy spa and we don't even have appointments." Applejack added.
"Appointments or no Applejack it is still rude to arrive late" Rarity huffed, AJ just rolling her eyes.
Sunset just looked at her friends and laughed. "Hehe, sorry girls." She awkwardly smiled. "But that's actually what i'm here to talk about"
"Oh-a-are you not coming?" Fluttershy asked.
"Sorry girls, but when Rarity asked us all during lunch I didn't really have the chance to get a word in edge wise and..."
"And you already had previous commitments you promised to help out with but didn't want to ruin Rarity's good mood so waited till after all our classes were done to say anything!" Pinkie Pie randomly interrupted.
".....ahh, yeah" Sunset confirmed, even after all this time still being occasionally caught off guard by the girl's seemingly clarvoiant outbursts.
"Well, I guess if you already have plans..." Twilight Sparkle sighed. "But we'll still see you at the mall tomorrow right!?" The adorkable purple girl asked in a somewhat uncertain tone.
"Of course, I wouldn't miss it for the world" Sunset Smiled placing her hand on Twilight's shoulder. The nerdy girl just giving a soft smile back as Sunset said her goodbyes to her group of friends and headed towards the back side of the school.
Sunset walked through the faculty parking lot towards the small forested area behind the school. Truth be told over the past month Sunset had grown to appriciate the small space. The trees and the grass all beautiful, vibrant and green. Even the small dirt path leading to her destination seemed to be viberant and lively, well as much as dirt could be. Stepping through a patch of bushes Sunset finally arrived at Canterlot High's Secret Garden. Or technically not so secret anymore, but that's the name that had stuck with the area none the less, and it was well deserving of such a title. The area was full of rare flowers and other such plants that had been carefully cared for, the mixture of soft yet bright colors and scents was a beauty to behold.
"H-hey, i'm glad you made it!" A happy yet nervous voice greeted, snapping Sunset out of her musings.
"Oh, hey Wallflower, how yea doin?" Sunset asked the shy green-thumbed girl with A smile.
"Oh, i'm fine" Wallflower blushed. "I'm glad you came to help, but-you know-you don't have to if you don't want to." Wallflower finished.
"Nonsense" Sunset chuckled. "You asked me for my help and I told you i'd be happy to oblige." Sunset reassured her as she set her backpack down letting it lean on a nearbye rock.
"Oh I-I know" Wallflower began "It's just-you know-it's not like it's your fault Derpy crashed her bike on her paper-route this morning or that Roseluck had to leave early to help her sisters with an emergency at their flower shop" Wallflower explained.
Sunset looked at the girl and just gave another soft smile. Despite the girl's somewhat unrully grass green hair and rather plain light dirt brown long sleeved shirt, she really was quite the cutie. Her freckles gave her a bit of a tomboyish quality despite her obvious shy and feminine nature. And despite the somewhat baggy long sleeved shirt it was quite easy to tell that Wallflower was just as well endowed as Fluttershy. Her hips were no laughing matter either. Her backside may have not been as large or plump as AJ's but their were still noticable curves and...assets.
"W-well thanks" Wallflower nervously replied. "We should probably get started" she exclaimed once again getting Sunset to focus on the situation at hand.
"Sure, sounds good to me" Sunset agreed glad her friend seemingly hadn't noticed her oogling.
A few hours had passed as the two girls had been busy tending to the garden and its various plants.
"Man this gardening stuff sure is hard work!" Sunset wheezed as she caught her breath and took a drink of water.
"Yea, but it's worth it" Wallflower Blush softly smiled as she looked at the small white flower she had just finished planting.
"He, you really like flowers, don't yea?" Sunset teased the girl. Wallflower just blushing in return.
"Well, yea-it's just-you know" Wallflower stutered. "Just what?" Sunset playfully inquired. "Flowers were always what I wanted to be" Wallflower confessed. Sunset saying nothing just looking at the girl with a rather confused face.
Wallflower just sighed. "Flowers, even though they don't speak, even though they don't move they are still noticable, so vibrant and colorful they can't help but have a strong presence to people. Flowers represent so many things.....confessions of love, please of forgivness, consule for the loss of a loved one, or just a thank you. They're so beautiful, so important, they have so much presence." Wallflower melancholically sighed looking down at the plants she so adored.
All of a sudden she felt Sunset's hand on her shoulder. "Hey now, what have I told you about sulking" Sunset teasingly scolded. "You're so much prettier when you smile." Sunset chuckled as she wipped some dirt off the blushing girl's cheek.
"I told you before Wallflower, every existance matters. No matter how small or insignifigant you may feel at times, it doesn't change the truth of how special and unique you are" Sunset reassured her friend. "And trust me, you deffinitely have presence" Sunset finished with a smile.
"S-Sunset-I-I" Wallflower stuttered, trying her best to get a reply out as her cheeks turned even more red, only to have her efforts made null and void as Sunset just gave the girl a small boop on the nose causing her shy nature to go out of control making the girl blush and nervously laugh like a fangirl trying to talk to a movie star.
"Well I guess I best be off" Sunset announced, knocking Wallflower out of her euphoria.
"Huh!?" The girl asked in a sad/confused tone.
"Sorry" Sunset chuckled "But you aren't the only one I promised to help today"

A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Sunset Shimmer walked through the empty halls of Canterlot High. By now near everyone else had gone home, even the janitor had seemingly called it quiets. However one rather stubborn girl was still waiting for Sunset in the gym, and the red-haired teen knew better by now then to keep her waiting any longer then she had to. As Sunset finally made it to her destination she swung open the doors to the gymnasium and looked towards her target. Up on the stage stood Trixie Lulamoon nervously tapping her foot as she made one last look at all the various props she had set-up on the stage.
"Hey Trixie, sorry i'm late" Sunset nervously smiled with a wheeze as she set her backpack down once again and made her way up to the stage. "I lost track of time helping Wallflower in the garden" Sunset blushed. "Hhmph" Trixie huffed. " It is about time Sunset Shimmer, you know The Great & Powerful Trixie does not care to be kept waiting!" Trixie faux-scolded the unicorn teen. "Of course Trixie is willing to make an exception for a friend of course" She cooed giving Sunset a sly smile.
"Oh no, I know that look" Sunset teasingly groaned "What nefarious revenge does the great and impatient Trixie have planned for me this time?" Sunset continued to tease.
"Well, Trixie has been thinking of new tricks, and well she has come to realize that the whole pulling a rabbit out of a hat or making one dissaper has become a bit....passe. So I decided to spice it up a bit." The girl devilishly smiled.
"I'm not sure I like where this is going" Sunset stated quite seriously this time.
"Oh, but you will" Trixie sang as she threw down one of her patented smoke bombs and appeared right next to Sunset holding the costume she planned for her assistant to wear.
"You want me to wear a bunny suite? Is this a magic show or a shoot for Playcolt magazine!?" Sunset shrieked with a blush.
"Oh, calm down, it's not like i'm making you rehearse naked or anything" Trixie huffed. "Besides you and I are the only ones here" Trixie reassured her. "Now go be a good little bunny and change so we can practice my new trick!" Trixie cheered with a smile. Sunset just rolling her eyes but reluctantly agreeing none the less.
Shortly after getting the costume on and getting a good oogling from Trixie, Sunset was finally ready to help the girl with her magic trick, well as ready as she would ever be.
"OK, so here's what you need to do." Trixie began to explain. "You get in that box like so and once you are in you'll notice a hole in the bottom. You'll slide through that when you hear my verbal que from outside, and then i'll tap the box with my wand and it'll collapse and boom you'll have dissapered, well as far as the audience is concerned. Then when I start talking again you crawl out behind the table and run backstage where i'll do some more slight of hand until I say the magic words again and you magically reappear in a puff of smoke!" Trixie explained with a wide grin across her face. "Got it!?" She asked Sunset excitedly.
"ahh-I think so, more or less" Sunset replied with a half-smile.
"Eh, good enough, OK lets do it!" Trixie cheered as she opened the lid and back motioning for Sunset to get into the box. Inside the box fully propped up things were a bit of a tight squeeze, sure sunset had room enough to move her arms and legs and position herself over the small round hole, but the whole thing still made her feel somewhat claustrophobic. She didn't have time to focus on that however as she heard Trixie start her speech. "Thank you one and all for coming to see the Great & Powerful Trixie!" The girl sang to a non existent audience. "Now as you all just saw I put my beautiful and sexy, though still not quite as attractive as me assistant Sunset Shimmer in this here box." Trixie continued trying to win over the invisible crowd, Sunset just rolling her eyes and chuckling. "And now with a tap of my magic wand I shall make her dissapper!" Trixie exclaimed, Sunset taking this as her cue and doing her best to quickly slide down the hole, that is until she felt a pain on her upper arms near her shoulders realizing she had scratched them against the edges of the circle "Ouch!" She quietly winched in pain as she halted her descent, the box collapsing around her and Trixie quickly noticing that her assistant had failed to properly play her part.
"Sunset I said you're supposed to go all the way down and hide under the table!" Trixie whined.
"Sorry Trixie" Sunset apologized, I just got ah, a bit distracted" Sunset chuckled rubbing her arm.
Trixie paused and looked at her friend "What's wrong? What happened?" Trixie asked her voice becoming much more calm and concerned.
"Oh it's nothing, I just scrapped up against the edges of the hole a bit, I guess even after all this time I keep forgetting how fragile these human bodies can be compared to my old pony one" Sunset chuckled still trying to hide the scratch from Trixie.
"Here, let me see" Trixie demanded in a stern yet caring tone.
"No, no, really-i'm fine" Sunset tried to explain, but Trixie was having none of that as she pushed Sunsets right hand away from the upper left part of her arm and saw the scratch, not very bad but a bit long and bleeding a tiny bit near the bottom.
"Here, let me help" Trixie sighed as she tapped her wand against her hat and pulled out a small first aid kit.
"Ahh, thanks" Sunset blushed as Trixie began to clean the small scrape and put a band-aid over it before moving to the other side she was was similar.
"Think nothing of it" Trixie smiled. "Trixie is used to this by now, I can't tell you how many times i've had to fix-up Snips and Snails after they trip-up during practice."
"Hehe, yea-they never were the most coordinated duo" Sunset chuckled thinking back to when she had to put-up with the two dunces back when she was the school bully.
"Though, if-you don't mind me asking" Sunset began. "What ever happened to Fuchsia and Lavender? I thought they were your friends too....why don't they ever help you out with your magic acts?" Sunset curiously inquired.
Trixie just let out a deep sigh. "I-it's because" Trixie began biting her lower lip. "Because what?" Sunset asked again.
"BECAUSE TRIXIE IS BAD AT KEEPING FRIENDS OK!!" The girl yelled right into Sunset's ear.
Sunset blinked and shook her head in an attempt to recover from the rather loud reaction. "Whoa, calm down girl, i'm right here!" Sunset joked as Trixie just looked at her friend with as an embarrassed blush. "Sorry about that" Trixie apologized. "But yes, the sad truth is that Trixe may have let her ego get the best of her, and Trixie's previous companions may have said that they were tired of putting up with her and never wanted to associate with her again." Trixie bluntly stated with a pout.
Sunset just looked at the sad girl and did her best not to chuckle. "W-well hey you still have Snips and Snails" She tried to reassure her. "Yea, and as you know they're more like siblings one has to constantly babysit then friends" Trixie pouted once more. "Hehe, true" Sunset agreed. "But, well-you have me." Sunset softly smiled as she put her hand on Trixie's shoulder.
"T-thank you" Trixie stuttered "I really do appreciate that" The girl softly smiled back as she leaned in and the two embraced in a hug. "Anytime" Sunset reassured her as she slowly released from the embrace and had Trixie help her out of the hole she was for some reason still in.
After getting changed back into her normal cloths and helping Trixie put up all her props back behind the stage she looked up and noticed that the sun outside had all but set. "Wow, night already, I really am bad at keeping track of time today" Sunset chuckled as she took a swig of her water bottle.
"Eh, what is time but the ultimate illusion" Trixie profoundly replied, Sunset again rolling her eyes.
"S-so do you have any dinner plans?" Trixie asked out of the blue.
"Well, yea-kinda." Sunset replied. "I was supposed to meet Flash & Twilight at Coinky-Dink world for a bite and to help tutor ol Mr. Sentry in Math. I mean he's a nice kid, but yea-not all that bright, still have no idea why I ever dated him." Sunset laughed.
Trixie just returned a chuckle. "OK then, i'll see you when I see you I guess" The magician sighed. "Have a good weekend." She half-heartingly smiled as Sunset headed for the doors. "You too!" Sunset smiled back as she flung the doors open and began her trek to the diner.
Trixie just stood there and sighed. "Oh Sunset, maybe if I was a good enough magician i'd figure out how to win your heart" Lulamoon sorrowfully chuckled as she too began to head out the door.

A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 3: Mall Rats & Friendship Spats
Sunset Shimmer hummed a happy tune as she got off the bus and headed towards the mall. The large shopping center had become a favorite of she and her friends over the past year, despite the whole ordeal with Juniper throwing a magical temper tantrum not too long ago. Sunset chuckled as she though back and opened one of the glass doors taking in the site, three stories high and full of shops of all kinds, Sunset wasn't as big on shopping as Rarity, but even she felt the urge to browse around when inside this monstrous monolith to materialism.
As Sunset continued her trek she found herself in the food court where her friends were waiting at a nearby table.
"S'up girls!?" Sunset asked with a smile as she approached the group.
"Not much" Rainbow Dash responded "Just watching Pinkie Pie eating herself into a sugar coma" Dash joked pointing over to the pink girl who was munching down on a plate of a good dozen or so chocolate cupcakes. "Hey, ahm ah growhing ghurl!" Pinkie Pie retorted with chunks of chocolate cupcake in her mouth.
"Oh please Ms. Pie, don't speak with a mouth full of food! It's so uncouth!!" Rarity whined looking at Pinkie in disgust.
Pinkie Pie just swallowed the sweet treats and took a swig of her soda. "tehe, Sorry Rari-*burp*" Pinkie Responded with a blush. Rainbow Dash and AJ letting out a chuckle and Rarity just groaning and rolling her eyes.
"Well, anyway how are things with you Sunset?" Twilight asked giving her good friend a inquisitive grin.
"Eh, pretty good I guess" Sunest replied as she set down next to Twilight. "Though I did lose track of time helping Wallflower out in the school's garden last night, and Trixie wasn't too happy about that." Sunset laughed.
"Ugg....why are you even friends with that blowhard!?" Rainbow Dash groaned. "I mean I get that Wallflower just lashed out cause she's awkward and shy or whatever, but Trixie, I know she helped you...but c'mon you don't really consider her your friend do you!?" Rainbow Dash scoffed.
Sunset Shimmer just looked at Dash with a serious and angry look "Yes, yes I do consider her my friend, even with all her flaws" Sunset bluntly stated. "If I can look past your ego and see the good there's no reason I shouldn't be able to look past hers." Sunset stated, the words piercing through Rainbow Dash like a knife causing her to blush with a mixture of anger and embarrassment.
"Hehe, she got you good Dashie!" Pinkie chuckled.
S-shut up Pinkie" Dash grumbled.
"You can't get mad at Pinkie or Sunset Rainbow, you know very well you walked right into that" Fluttershy kindly added.
"Whatever" Rainbow Dash pouted.
Noticing the mood was becoming a bit tense Rarity stood-up and cleared her throat "OK Ladies that's enough small talk, it's Saturday and we're in the mall, It's time to go shopping!!" Rarity happily exclaimed as she grabbed AJ and Fluttershy and began to drag the two girls off.
"Well, guess it's time to go shopping." Sunset repeated with a chuckle as she and Twilight set-up and began to leave the table as well, Rainbow still pouting as Pinkie did her best to try to convince Rainbow to go to the candy store with her.
Some time passed and the girls kept up with each groups whereabouts via texts on their phones while enjoying browsing and shopping at their favorite stores. Sunset stopping by GameStable and picking-up a copy of Them's Fightin Herds as well as a couple of cute Power Ponies POP! figures for her desk. Twilight stopping at the tech store and buying some upgrades for the new computer she was working on, and then both girls going by Griffon Books to see if anything caught their eye. Though Twilight could tell despite Sunset having a good time there was not doubt something still eating at the girl.
"So, do you want to tell me what's up?" Twilight asked with a sly grin "or do I have to pry it out of you?" She finished as she closed the book she was looking at and put it back on the shelf.
"I-ah-I have no idea what you're talking about." Sunset lied.
"Oh, come-on Sunset, we're best friends, after everything we've been through together we're practically like sisters!" Twilight chuckled as she placed her hand on Sunset's shoulder and gave her a soft smille.
Sunset just let out a heavy sigh. "I dunno, I guess, it's-just" Sunset stuttered "I guess what Rainbow said is still bothering me." Sunset admitted. "I mean I love you girls, you're my best friends and like you said practically my family as well" Sunset softly smiled.
"But..." Twilight added to egg the girl on.
"But Trixie and Wallflower are my friends too, and i'm starting to care about them a lot as well, I-I want all my friends to get along, but-I-I don't know if that'll happen." Sunset winched.
"Just give it time Sunset, i'm sure everyone will come around eventually." Twilight reassured her.
"He, I hope so-though i'm not so sure about Dash, she's being extra stubborn on this one it seems" Sunset chuckled.
"Yea, well-that's our Dashie, what yea gonna do" Twilight chuckled back.
"He, thanks Twilight, I needed that" Sunset smiled at her friend "So..." Sunset briefly paused "Does that mean you won't get mad if I told you I was planning to get Trixie and Wallflower presents while we're here today, I mean it's been about a month now since we've become friends and I wanted to, you-know, commemorate it" Sunset blushed.
Twilight just smiled at her dear friend "I think that's a wonderful idea Sunset. So what did you have in mind!?"
"Well....." Sunset began
After hours of shopping the girls finally met back at the food court, all seemingly rather warn down. Sunset looked around and noticed Rarity had well over a dozen large sacks, ones she imagined that poor AJ no doubt had to carry around for her most of the day. Fluttershy just had a single small bag from the pet store and AJ a couple sacks filled with her favorite brand of jeans and jean-skirts. Rainbow had apparently bought a couple of new pairs of sneakers she was proudly showing off to Pinkie Pie, and the peppy pink girl had purchased a rather well...extremely large bag of candy.
"Well, looks like everyone had a good time" Sunset chuckled looking over at Twilight.
"Indeed" Twilight agreed with a smile.
All of a sudden however Sunset heard Rarity address her.
"You know I don't mean to pry darling but I can't help but notice that small brown bag you are holding has the Sassy Saddles Boutique Logo on it, does it not?" Rarity curiously inquired.
"Oh-Ah...yea, I guess it does." Sunset blushed.
"Oh, how divine, they make the absolute best costume jewelry, I adore Ms. Saddle's work!" Rarity sang. "If you don't mind could I take a peak at what you bought?" Rarity asked with an enthusiastic and curious look upon her face.
"W-well you see, they're supposed to be a surprise for..." Sunset began.
"Oh, surprise, I love surprises!!" Pinkie Pie interrupted.
"As do I" Rarity chimed back in as she yoinked the bag from Sunset and quickly shook out the contents into her hands.
"NO!" Sunset panicked, but it was too late, the jewelry had already come out of the bag and was in Rarity's hand.
"Oh, how interesting, why...why these look like our geodes" Rarity stated "I mean obviously not actually magic, but these are wonderful recreations, and the colors, the symbols inside...oh my are these for?" Rarity began to ask as Twilight quickly used her magic to levitate the jewelery and the now crumpled brown bag back towards Sunset.
"T-they're gifts for Trixie and Wallflower." Sunset rasped with a blush trying hold back the nervousness in her voice.
"What!?" Rainbow Dash loudly blurted out looking angrily at Sunset.
"Hey Dashie, calm down" Pinkie Nervously chuckled trying to get her friend to relax.
"What the hell Sunset!?" Rainbow growled "Our Geodes are supposed to be special, a sign of how strong our bond of friendship is and you just have some stupid jewelry store make cheap copies for those losers!!" Rainbow angrily shrieked.
That was the last straw, Sunset banged her hands against the table. "Oh you mean the bond you and the others completely forgot about and didn't even try to believe was real until I almost lost all of my memories of you all forever!!" Sunset angrily screeched hot wet tears now rolling down her eyes.
Rainbow Dash just stood there frozen, unsure of what to say. The same was true for the rest of the girls.
" I know I should be over it, it's been a month, but..." Sunset continued to sob as she wiped the tears from her eyes. "You forgot all about me, no matter how much I tried to convince you, none of you saw me as a friend. Those were the worst three days of my life, it was a living hell, Everyone hated me again, I was all alone" Sunset continued. "But Trixie, Trixie actually believed me, she helped me more then you were willing too Rainbow Dash! She's a real friend, so don't you ever call her a loser again!" Sunset shrieked the anger quite evident in her face.
The words stung and even thought Rainbow Dash knew Sunset's words were true her ego and pride would not allow her to merely say sorry.
"Yea-well, what about Wallflower, she's the one that took everyone's memories, not us!" Rainbow angrily retorted "Why don't you get mad at her!?" Rainbow growled.
"Because she actually feels bad about what she did!" Sunset growled back "She was angry and lonely and lashing out, just like I did when I first got to this world. She felt like she didn't matter and even if I don't think what she did was right that doesn't mean i'll hold a grudge against someone who has spent the past month trying to make-up for her mistakes and actually be a good friend. It's not different then when I or Twilight looked to all of you for friendship or forgiveness, it's not my place to deny her a second chance!" Sunset finished her speech with a confident pose and a serious look that pierced straight through Rainbow Dash's soul.
Rainbow Dash still the ever stubborn one refused to lose this argument even if she knew she was in the wrong.
"Oh, law-dee-freakin-daw!" Rainbow growled "Look at me, Sunset Shimmer, i'm soo kind hearted, the element of empathy, I always forgive everyone because I was a huge meanie my freshmen year and now i'm so damn desperate for everyone to like me i'll do anything to make as many friends as possible, even give them stupid fake geodes!!" Rainbow Dash mocked.
The rest of the girls just let out shocked gasps, looking on in disbelief at how stubbornly cruel Rainbow Dash was being,
"Hey now Dash, that ain't right, you apologize ta Sunset right now!" AJ scolded.
"That was super duper meanie-mean pants Dashie!" Pinkie Angrily frowned.
"oh-oh my" Fluttershy stuttered.
Rainbow Dash looked around and saw the disgust and disappointment on her friends faces, and she finally realized she had made a terrible mistake.
"How could you Rainbow!?" Twilight growled as she starred daggers at the cyan skinned, rainbow haired teen.
"OK, l-listen-I-I got carried away, i-i'm sorry ok." Rainbow Dash nervously stuttered trying to save face.
"S-Sunset!?" Rainbow Dash nervously asked looking over at the girl, noticing that she was shaking, as her face came up and met Rainbow's, Dash could see that Sunset was crying again, sobbing like Fluttershy after seeing a sad movie.
"S-Sunset I-I'm" Rainbow Dash tried to apologize, but before she could get the words out Sunset ran-off crying, Twilight running after her, calling her name begging her to slow down.
"Good going there Rainbow Crash!" Applejack sclolded as the rest of the girls looked at rainbow, their eyes full of anger and disapproval, Rainbow now feeling lower then low.
"Sunset, wait!" Twilight wheezed as she did her best to catch up to her friend who had almost ran all the way back to the bus stop. Thankfully Sunset finally seemed to calm down a bit and steadily slowed her pace until she came to a complete halt just feet away from the bus stop.
"Sunset, I-I'm sorry that Rainbow said those awful things, but-i-i'm sure she didn't mean them!" Twilight huffed as she tried to catch her breath and comfort her friend at the same time. Sunset just stood there and said nothing.
"Hey, it's OK, I-i'm here for you-ok!?" Twilight tried to comfort her friend. Sunset just turned around and embraced Twilight in a tight hug, Twilight doing the same in return. "there, there" Twilight chuckled as she patted Sunset on the back. "I'm sorry some of our friends are so pig headed, i'll make sure she receives a proper punishment" Twilight chuckled.
"having Rarity make her wear a super girly, fru-fruey dress to the sleepover tonight would be fair I think" Twilight added.
"Hehe" Sunset chuckled "I can't wait to see that"
"So, you're still coming tonight?" Twilight asked.
"of course, I wouldn't miss it for the world!" Sunset smiled at Twilight as she released her from the hug. "But first, I think I want to go give Trixie and Wallflower their gifts. "I'll see you tonight" Sunset smiled as she headed back towards the bus stop.
"Yea, see yea tonight sis." Twilight softly smiled waving and giving Sunset a wink as she watched Sunset get on the bus, hoping by tonight everything would be OK.

Chapter 4: Loving Friends & Wrecking Slumber Parties
Chapter 4: Loving Friends & Wrecking Slumber Parties
Sunset Shimmer sighed as the late afternoon sun beat down on the girl as she stomped through downtown Canterlot City. "Ugg, Rainbow can be such a bitch sometimes!" Sunset fummed as she continued her trek down the sidewalk. "Trixie and Wallflower are just as deserving of friendship as anypon er anybody else!" Sunset stated as she chuckled and caught herself almost saying anypony which had become a bad habit of hers at times recently, possibly a lingering side effect of the memory stone.
"Wallflower" Sunset sighed melancholically thinking of the once sad and invisible girl. Thankfully it would not be to long until her thoughts became reality as Sunset soon found herself at the store she had been told by Roseluck she could most likely find the shy grass haired girl. Sunset looked up at the sign which read Treehugger's Organic Garden as she opened the door and heard a little bell ring.
"S'up fellow earth-child" The store clerk greeted Sunset with a peace sign, Sunset awkwardly doing so back and giving the girl, who was quite obviously high off her rocker and awkward smile as she quickly turned her attention back to the store and looked around, sadly seeing Wallflower was nowhere to be found.
"Um, excuse me, but did a girl with dark green hair come here by any chance?" Sunset politely asked the young woman behind the counter.
Treehuger thought for a bit before replying. "Oh, yea....stripped sweater, she's in the back in the green house brah." Treehuger replied in her usual relaxed/chill tone. "Ahh, thanks" Sunset replied as she headed to the back of the store and opened the door to the greenhouse area.
"Oh aren't you just the most adorable little thing" Wallflower sang looking down at a rather large whiite/yellow plant.
"it's not a dog you know" Wallflower heard a voice chuckled before turning around to see Sunset Shimmer beaming a bright smile at the girl.
"S-sunset, wh-what are you doing here!?" Wallflower nervously stuttered as she caught her balance trying to not let the surprise appearance of her friend cause her to fall.
"Well, I was looking for you over at Roseluck and her sister's flowershop but you weren't there and Rose said that this would be the second best place to look so I came here." Sunset honestly answered with yet another happy smile.
"O-oh" Wallflower blushed, her light green cheeks turning their usual shade of bright red. "B-but why were you looking for me, I mean, I thought you were spending the day at the mall with your friends." Wallflower nervously stuttered.
"Well, I was, but that got boring, and on top of that I had a gift to give you" Sunset smiled once more, now bigger then ever.
"a-a gift?" Wallflower blushed again.
"Yep, just for you" Sunset beamed as she held up the necklace with the faux green geode in the middle, Wallflowers mark etched inside. "Th-this is a necklace, l-like yours!?" Wallflower asked looking up at the girl in awe.
"Well not exactly like mine" Sunset chuckled "I mean it's not magic so you won't be getting any crazy magic plant powers or anything like that" Sunset stated "but yea, I had ones made for you and Trixie, as a gift, it's our anniversary, a month since we became friends, yea know" Sunset nervously chuckled, now it was her turn to do the blushing. Wallflower hooked the necklace on to her neck and looked down watching it dangle the faux-geode glisten in the light. All of a sudden she turned her attention back to Sunset and as tears began to build-up in her eyes and she embraced the red-headed teen in a tight and loving hug. "Th-thank you, th-this is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me." Wallflower sobbed tears of joy as she continued to unintentionally crush Sunset with a loving hug.
"G-glad you like it, now could ah, could you let me go please." Sunset wheezed, Wallflower realizing how tightly she was squeezing her friend before letting go and apologizing with a blush. "Hehe, Sorry"
"Sa'll good, i'm just glad you like it" Sunset softly smiled back. "So, what's with the plant here? Yea gonna get one?" Sunset asked the girl pointing to the rather unusual looking flower she had been talking to.
"Oh ah you mean the Dendrophylax lindeni!" Wallflower chuckled
"The who what now?" Sunset asked rather confused causing Wallflower to let out another adorkable laugh. :Ahh, sorry, I forget not everyone's as big of a plant nerd as I am" she nervously chuckled. "Its a Ghost Orchid" Wallflower explained. "It mostly grows in more tropical climates, but I heard this flower shop got some in and I really wanted to get some for the school garden!" She smiled. "Though I do wonder if i'd be good enough to keep it alive in a place outside it's natural habitat" The girl nervously admitted.
"Pffft, as if the poster girl for green thumbs wouldn't be able to grow a tropical plant in a school garden, c'mon Wallflower, you got this!" Sunset reassured her giving the girl a confident and cocky look. "Yea-yea really think so?" Wallflower Blushed. "I know so" Sunset replied with a wink.
After leaving the flower shop Sunset walked along the sidewalk with Wallflower who was happily carrying the plant in tow. "So-w-what are you gonna do now?" Wallflower curiously asked her best and only friend. "Well I guess now i'll text Trixie and see where she is and give her the necklace I got for her, and then..." Sunset paused. "And then what?" Wallflower asked. "Well i'm supposed to go to my friends sleepover tonight at Rarity's" Sunset sighed, unsure why she felt guilty for admitting to planning to spend time with her dearest and oldest friends. "Oh" Wallflower sighed.
All of a sudden however and idea formed in Sunset's head. "Wait-wait, what-what if you and Trixie come with me to The Rainboom's sleepover!" Sunset beamed with excitement. "A-are you sure?" Wallflower nervously asked. "I-I mean, I still don't think your friends like me very well, and I know they don't like Trixie" Wallflower blurted out, only to see Sunset give her an angry glare. "B-but I could be wrong" Wallflower meeped.
Sunset just let out a deep sigh as she wrapped her arm around Wallflower "Listen, I promise it'll be fine. We'll go find Trixie, i'll give her the necklace I got her and then we'll all head to Rarity's together, my friends will welcome you both with open arms, I promise!" Sunset tried to reassure the nervous girl. "Well everyone accept that bitch Rainbow Dash " Sunset thought to herself. Not that such was going to stop her.
After finally getting a text back from Trixie, Sunset was told to meet the magician in training at Sugar Cube Corner. As the two girls arrived they looked around and saw Trixie waving to them from a booth in the back, a wide smile on her face.
"Hello minions!" Trixie chuckled as Sunset and Wallflower walked towards her. "Minions Trixie, really?" Sunset chuckled. "OK, hello Friends" Trixie corrected. "Better" Sunset grinned as she set down, Wallflower doing the same and setting her potted plant on the table.
"Oh, Nice flower" Trixie complimented.
"T-thanks" Wallflower blushed.
"So, what brings the spectacular and almost as fabulous as me Sunset Shimmer to see The Great & Powerful Trixie!?" The silver haired girl asked with a wide and mischievous smile on her face. "Well, yea see Trix, I've got a little gift for you" Sunset grinned even more as she pulled the necklace out of the brown paper bag, letting it dangle in front of Trixie.
"Oh my gosh is that one of those magical geode things you and The Rainbooms have!?" Trixie excitedly shrieked as she quickly put it around her neck. "What does it do!? What does it do!?" She excitedly inquired. Sunset just looked at her and laughed. "No Trixie it's not a real magic necklace, it's just costume jewelery, I had them made for you and Wallflower as a way to commemorate our one month anniversary of becoming friends" Sunset explained a sincere kindness and happiness in her voice.
"Oh" Trixie replied in a rather disappointed huff. "That's nice too I suppose." She replied without thinking about what she was saying as she was so often prone to do, only to look up and see Sunset's disgruntled expression. Trixie just let out a nervous chuckle "Er what I mean to say is, thank you very much Sunset Shimmer for this caring and thoughtful gift" Trixie nervously smiled, Sunset letting out a small chuckle in return. "Hehehe, Better" She softly smiled. "Just you wait Trixie, i'll make a goodie goodie out of you yet" Sunset teased jabbing the girl on the arm from across the table. "Yea, as if" Trixie teased back, the two girls just laughing, Wallflower awkwardly and nervously joining in.
After the laughter died down Sunset just looked seriously at Trixie. "So Trix, i've been thinking, how would you like to help Wallflower & I crash a party?" She asked the girl, knowing her wording would make it an offer Trixie wouldn't refuse.
"Ohh" Trixie cooed "I say point me the way!" Trixie sang
"Um, I think the phrase is show me the way" Wallflower nervously corrected.
"Ugg, Whatever" Trixie groaned "Point is, i'm in!"
Rarity hummed a happy tune as she put the finishing touches on the cupcakes she had been making, swirling the pink frosting around and around. "Ugg, are they done yet Rarity, i'm sooo hungry!!" Pinkie whined, watching Rarity slowly decorate the pastries. "Please Ms. Pie, do have some self control, I am making art!" Rarity boasted. "Well you're art is making me hungry!" Pinkie whined once more. "Please Pinkie Pie, you ate an entire box of doughnuts from Joe's on the way to my house, how can you possibly be hungry!?" Rarity scolded. "Eh, what can I say, i'm a growin girl" Pinkie chortled. "Yea, growing straight into a moo-moo" Rarity huffed under her breath, though that wasn't really true given the girl never seemed to gain any wait no matter how much she ate "I swear I don't know how she does it!?" Rarity internally complained "I mean with AJ we all know it goes to her ass and fFuttershy's goes to her boobs, but Pinkie Pie, it like it all just dissapers, I swear there's a black hole inside that girl!" Rarity internally chuckled. Her inner monologue interrupted by the doorbell ringing.
"Coming!" Rarity sang as she turned her attention towards the front door, Pinkie taking this as her chance to strike and grabbing a handful of the cupcakes as soon as Rarity dissapered down the hall.
"Let's see, I wonder who it could be" Rarity teased as she waled towards the door. "Well everyone else is here so it must be you Sunset Shimmer about time you got here!" Rarity sang as she opened the door, her mouth instantly dropping. She had been right, it was her friend, but along with Sunset were Trixie and Wallflower. Rarity gulped and let out a small nervous chuckle "Well, ahh-come in darlings, come in!" She greeted trying to sound as cheerful as possible. Sunset smiling as she passed Rarity, Wallflower just cowering down behind her plant and giving the purple haired girl a devious smile and a wink.
"Oh my" Rarity whispered to herself "This might not end well" She nervously stated as she quickly sprinted down the hall back to the living area.
The rest of the rainbooms were sitting in the somewhat cramped living area of Rarity's parents house when they saw Sunset Shimmer walk in with Trixie and Wallflower in tow. At first the girls were surprised, but then quickly just happily and politely greeted the group, saying how they were glad Sunset were finally arrived. Fluttershy and Applejack complimenting Wallflowers potted plant and Pinkie asking Trixie if she knew how to pull a chocolate bunny out of her hat. Meanwhile however Rainbow Dash was in what Rarity called the time out corner, sitting in the corner of the room wearing a hastily made pink fru-fru dress with a pink hairbow that Twilight had requested the fashionista to make as a punishment of sort for Rainbow's earlier outburst. This hadn't bothered Dash that much mind you until the girls responsible for her being in this mess actually showed up at the party.
"Oh my gosh, I can't believe you actually did it!" Sunset chuckled as she walked towards Rainbow Dash.
"Well, yes, Dashie was stubborn at first but we simply explained to her it was either this or make a sappy heart felt apology in front of the entire school. Otherwise she was uninvited from the festivities" Rarity deviously chuckled.
"You're lucky i'm the element of loyalty or i'd bash your skulls in!" Rainbow Dash angrily huffed looking at her group of so called friends.
"Come now Rainbow" Rarity teased "You know you have no one to blame for this but yourself, after all those mean things you said to Sunset earlier" Rarity reminded the Rainbow haired teen "Besides we'll get in the pool soon, so you can take it off then" Rarity attempted to console "Though it does look adorable on you"
"Gee-thanks" Rainbow huffed.
Sunset looked around, worried that this would be the point Trixie would butt in and start something, mock Rainbow Dash and bring her over the edge. Thankfully however Trixie seemed to be preoccupied in the kitchen area telling Pinkie Pie how great she was. The peppy pink teen just listening attentively like it was her own mother telling her a bedtime story.
"W-wait, d-did you say pool?" Wallflower nervously asked.
"Why yes darling" Rarity happily replied. "I mean it's not much, not nearly as big as Soursweet's" Rarity admitted, but it's more then big enough for the nine of us to swim around in and enjoy" Rarity smiled pulling the curtains from the slidding glass doors revealing her back yard where the pool resided.
"Oh, w-well I d-didn't bring a swimsuit....sorry, g-guess i'll stay inside" Wallflower nervously excused herself.
"Nonsense darling!" Rarity chuckled "I am a fashionista after all" She boasted "I am sure I can find something in my closet that will fit you and make you look fabulous!" Rarity excitedly exclaimed.
"And you'll find on for me too?" Trixie blurted out, finally noticing the other girls. Rarity just rolled her eyes. "Yes, Trixie i'm sure I have something for you as well." She sighed. "Now come along you two, upstairs chop-chop, it's time for fabulosity!" Rarity commanded as the two followed behind her. "OK" Trixie non-chelauntly replied. "but I have to ask, why is Rainbow Dash wearing a pink dress?" Trixie asked the other girls just laughing as Rainbow groaned.
Later the group of girls had all put their swimsuits on and gathered by the pool, all accept Trixie and Wallflower who Rarity was hiding behind some towels she had hung up and was giddily hopping-up and down like Pinkie Pie.
"I present to you my dear Rainbooms, the new and improved Wallflower Blush and Trixie Lulamoon!" She exclaimed as she pulled down the towels and revealed the two girls in their bathing suites.
"their just in swimsuites rarity" Rainbow Dash huffed as she rolled her eyes. Sunset Shimmer however couldn't disagree more. Sunset couldn't help but stare in awe at the sight, she had never seen Wallflower in a swimsuit, but now she wished she had sooner. The girl's posture was its usual shy one, trying to use her arms to cover herself but Sunset could still take in the beautiful sight, a two piece bathing suite, though one a bit conservative by modern standards, yet it still fit tightly against Wallflowers form, her large breasts tightly together and the bottom slightly longer shorts hugging her backside and legs tightly. To put it simply she was adorable, and to Sunset, for Wallflower that also meant sexy. Trixie meanwhile wasn't afraid to show off as much skin as possible, a skimpy black top with silver sequins and a bottom that was practically just a thong, Sunset felt she had to do everything in her power to keep her nose from bleeding.
"So, how do I look, Amazing, right!?" Trixie winked at the other girls, the rest of the Rainbooms giving her a thumbs-up save for Rainbow who just rolled her eyes and groaned in disgust.
"D-don't you t-think these swim-suites are a-a-bit revealing" Wallflower asked with a blush.
"Nonesense darling, it looks perfect on you." Right, Sunset?" Rarity asked giving the bacon-haired teen a wink.
"Oh-ah, yea, you both look fabulous" Sunset nervously stuttered as she tried to remove herself from her lust induced stupor.
"See, everything is fine, now c'mon girls-it's pool time!" Rarity cheered as the rest of the girls joined in and hopped in the pool.
After swimming for a good couple hours the girls had returned to the living area and snacked on cupcakes and hot pockets, sipping soda and tea as they chatted and laughed and just generally enjoyed each other's company.
"So, while this has been great and all, I gotta ask, when are the games gonna start?" Trixie blurted out. The other girls just looking at her. "Games?" Fluttershy asked confused. "Yea-you know, Slumber party games, like pillow, fights, spin the bottle, truth or dare, stuff like that!" Trixie asked out loud. "LIke it says in Slumber 101" She finished.
"Oh my gosh! You have a copy of Slumber 101 too!?" Twilight asked excitedly, her nerdy smile wide on her face.
"Of course, Trixie may be viewed by her classmates as a bimbo but that does not mean she isn't a well readed bimbo" The girl stated. Twilight tempted to correct her and say it was well read, not well readed, but bit on her lip, not wanting to potentially start anything with Sunset's new friend.
"Well, I suppose some old fashioned party games could be fun" Rarity chimed-in. "It's been ages since i've played truth or dare" The snow-white girl admitted.
"Oh-oh let's do that!" Pinkie cheered.
"Fine with me" AJ agreed
"I-I-g-guess" Wallflower Blushed.
"Then it's settled, truth or dare it is!" Rarity smiled. "Now just let me find an empty bottle" She began, Pinkie handing her an empty coke bottle before she could finish. "well, I guess that'll do" Rarity chuckled.
The group of girls gathered in the center of the room and set around the bottle. "OK girls, here's the rules' Twilight Sparkle began. "We take turn spinning the bottle and whomever it lands on has to pick between truth or dare" Twilight stated. "We know how to play Twi, its a baby game for pete's sake" Rainbow Groaned "lets just get it over with"
"Fine" Twilight huffed "But know if someone chooses truth and you don't answer honestly Sunset and I will know and we'll put you back in the time out corner" Twilight threatened giving a mischievous grim to Rainbow Dash.
"Fine, Whatever" Rainbow Dash huffed again.
"OK then, i'll start things off" Twilight happily sang as she spun the bottle and it stopped at Fluttershy.
"OK Fluttershy, Truth or Dare?" Twilight asked.
"Oh-ah, ah I dunno, ah Truth, no dare, ah no...yes...ahh..dare I guess" The girl stuttered.
"OK" Twilight chuckled. "I dare you to give Opal essance a kiss on the nose." Twilight chuckled.
"Oh, OK" Fluttershy smiled, glad to see her friend was being nice about it, any of the others would be intimidated by the dare, but Fluttershy's natural inclination with animals meant she could approach the usually grouchy cat without fear of being clawed to pieces like the others would. She chuckled as she got up and approached the cat that was sitting in a nearby chair and gave it a quick kiss on the nose and a pat on the forehead. Opal just meowing and yawning in return.
"Lame" Rainbow Dash groaned.
"OK then Dashie, why don't you go next" Twilight growled.
"Don't mind if I do" Rainbow Dash chuckled, as she span the bottle as hard as she could, before it slowly started to stop, freezing in front of Wallflower Blush. Rainbow Dash bearing an evil grin on her face. "OK Wallflower, tell me, truth or dare?" Rainbow asked in a intimidating tone.
"Oh, well-um" Wallflower fumbled her words "Wh-what do I do?" She asked herself "I mean Fluttershy did a dare and she just had to kiss a cat, which isn't that bad, I mean she's shy too and they didn't try to make her do anything that would embarrass her, Sunset said her friends would be nice, m-maybe they are, maybe Sunset was right" Wallflower nervously thought to herself.
"I don't have all night yea know" Rainbow huffed looking at the nervous green girl.
"I-I choose Dare!" Wallflower blurted out to the other's surprise. Rainbow Dash just grinned like the Grinch planning to steal Christmas. "Good choice" she cooed in a sultry tone. " I Rainbow Dash, dare you Wallflower Blush to take off that cute little Bikini Top and show us those sweater cows you always try to hide!" Dash deviously replied.
Wallflower was frozen in place by the request.
"What the hell Rainbow Dash, you-can't just ask Wallflower to do something like that! You know how shy she is!!" Sunset scolded starring daggers at the rainbow haired girl.
"Tough, she shouldn't have said dare then" Rainbow Dash mocked.
"Twilight!" Sunset looked at her closest friend pleading.
"I-i'm sorry Sunset, I mean it's vulgar and inappropriate but it's not against the rules" Twilight sighed. "Wallflower can refuse, but by the rules of the game if she does...."
"Then she has to sit in the time-out corner" Rainbow teased.
Wallflower sat and processed the situation as best she could. She didn't want to do something like that, not in front of so many people, but if she refused she lost, and she was here as Sunset's guest, so if she lost that meant she was letting Sunset down, right? She didn't want to do that either.
As Sunset and Rainbow continued to argue Wallflower let out a deep-gulp and undid her top, the beautiful flower print piece falling to the ground as gasps were heard around the room.
"W-wallflower" Sunset rasped in a shocked voice.
"Damn I didn't think she'd actually have the balls to do it" Rainbow replied impressed staring at the green skinned girls now large exposed orbs. "Nice melons" Rainbow teased, Wallflower now in tears, begging to shake, near a panic attack, all she could do was instinctively run away, and she did so, up the stairs towards the guest bathroom Rarity had her and Trixie change in earlier.
Rainbow Dash continued to chuckle as the rest of her friends once again glared at her in contempt. "Oh, c'mon it's just a game!" Rainbow Dash groaned. Before anyone else could reply though Trixie spoke-up.
"My Turn" Trixie growled as she spun the bottle as if like magic it stopping right at Rainbow Dash. "OK flatty, Truth or Dare!?" Trixie grinned.
Rainbow Smirked. "hehe, Truth of course" Rainbow replied. "Like i'm gonna fall into her trap and let her pull some revenge dare on me" Rainbow told herself. Trixie however just smiled even wider, Rainbow not realizing Trixie had wanted her to choose truth.
"OK, tell me Rainbow Dash.....why do you hate Wallflower and me so much?" Trixie asked. Rainbow Dash just froze. "Shit-I did fall into a trap" Rainbow internally bemoaned.
"ah-c'mon I don't" Rainbow began
"uh-uh-uh" Trixie scolded "You have to tell the truth or you go in the timeout corner" Trixie devilishly grinned. Rainbow Dash thought for a moment and cursed herself once again, she wasn't about to lose a after both of the shyest people in the room had succeed. But talking about emotions and mushy stuff like that had always been hard for her. "Damn it why me!" she huffed under her breath.
"We're waiting Rainbow Dash" Trixie taunted. "So go ahead, tell us all why you're such a spiteful bitch to someone as fabulous as me and someone as sweet as Wallflower?" Trixie asked again.
"ugg, fine!" Rainbow huffed "You wanna know, fine!" Rainbow repeated. "I Hate you because you're an egotistical braggart who thinks she's better then everybody else..and...and...:" Rainbow stuttered.
"And" Trixie egged the girl on
"And you remind me so much of myself it freaks me out!" Rainbow Dash admitted, the rest of the girls other then Trixie gasping at the revelation. "You are so cocky and you hide your insecurities behind some bravado, just like I do and I see how people react to that, and I think, what if I mess-up bad, what if I become worse then you, worse then I am now, what if I become so self absorbed I lose all my friends and I end up like you or worse!!" Rainbow Dash screamed out loud. "That's why I hate you Trixie, because looking at you makes me constantly realize what I could become if i'm not careful" Rainbow finished, her face blush red, her breathing heavy, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Oh-Rainbow" Fluttershy sobbed seeing her oldest friend in such pain.
"And Wallflower?" Trixie asked.
Rainbow Dash sniffled as she cleared the tears from her eyes "I-I guess I still haven't forgiven her for what she did to us, to Sunset, I-i'm not mature enough to do that" Rainbow reluctantly admitted. "I mean I know others have hurt us before, but, stealing memories, even if she wasn't evil herself, that's a whole new level of low" Rainbow rasped.
The group of girls just looked at Rainbow, uncertain of what to say.
"Thank you for your honesty Rainbow Dash" Trixie softly smiled. "Now Sunset I do believe you have a little flower upstairs to cheer up" Trixie chuckled looking at Sunset, the girl still frozen but quickly registering Trixie's words. "Oh, ahh...yea, guess I do" Sunset replied as she slowly got up and headed upstairs to help Wallflower, the rest of the girls still just staring at Dash who was still blushing and shaking, most likely feeling just as embarrassed as Wallflower had mere moments before. A thought that brought Trixie and Sunset a mixture of both joy and regret.

A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 5: Sowing The Seeds For Something New (NSFW)
Sunset Shimmer hurried up the stares, her sense of urgency to help her friend stronger then ever before. A million thoughts swirled inside the red head. She felt bad for letting Wallflower fall into Rainbow's trap, she was mad at herself for putting her new friends in a situation where they could get hurt or embarrassed, she was glad Rainbow Dash finally came clean about why she had been acting so cruel but still angry at the girl for making Wallflower cry.
Wallflower, the closer Sunset got to the upstairs bathroom the more her heart felt for the poor girl. Sunset had spent a good month trying to build-up Wallflower's confidence and sense of self worth and now all of that could be destroyed in a single evening. Anger briefly flared up once more "If I wasn't reformed I swear i'd kill Rainbow Dash for this!" Sunset huffed under her breath as she finally arrived in front of her destination.
Sunset gently tapped on the locked door. "Wallflower, sweetie? Are you in there? It's me, Sunset." The bacon-haired teen softly rasped as gently as she could.
"GO AWAY!!" She heard a rather loud voice boom from the other side. At first this took Sunset by surprise, but then after what the girl had just been through she couldn't blame Wallflower for such an out burst. "Wallflower, please, it's Sunset, let me in" Sunset shimmer pleaded beginning to fidget with the door despite knowing it was locked. There was no reply from the other side this time, just a tense and awkward silence before Sunset heard the door click. The girl took her chance and slowly opened it up. Inside the restroom Wallflower just set there on top of the toilet, shaking, doing her best to cover-up her breasts with her arms.
"you know, it's not nice to hog the restroom" Sunset chuckled trying to lighten the mood.
"I-I-W-Want to go home!" Wallflower sobbed, looking up at Sunset. Sunset Shimmer just looked at her friend and gave a melancholic sigh. "OK, I understand" Sunset softly smiled. "What Rainbow Dash did was" Sunset began as she stared down at the tile "....well it was just cruel" Sunset growled before turning her attention back to Wallflower. "I'm sorry, this is all my fault" Sunset sorrowfully groaned.
Wallflower just looked up at the girl with a sad and confused stare "H-how-is it your fault?" She asked as she wiped away her tears. "I was being selfish" Sunset admitted with a sigh "And stubborn" She sighed yet again. "I knew Rainbow Dash had a problem with you and Trixie but I still invited you both over anyway. I wanted to show her that my new friends were just as important and special to me as my old ones, but.....I guess...I guess my plan backfired" Sunset huffed, a sad look upon her face.
Wallflower just let out a small chuckle as she wiped the last of the tears from her eyes. "Y-you really think i'm special?" She asked with a blush, looking up at Sunset and slowly giving the girl a small smile. Sunset just softly smiled back as she laid her hand on Wallflower's bare shoulder. "Yes, I think you're very special" Sunset reassured the sad girl. "And if i'm being honest, also.....kinda hot" Sunset admitted with a blush, Wallflower blushing brightly as well.
After Sunset had successfully cheered up her friend they made their way to Rarity's bedroom where the fashionista had hung up Trixie and Wallflower's cloths. "OK, we'll get your sweater and pants and i'll take you home." Sunset softly smiled at the girl. Wallflower slowly walked into the room and stared at her garments that Rarity had neatly hung-up for her. Meanwhile Sunset despite herself couldn't help but take in the sight before her. Wallflower wearing nothing but a bikini bottom, the moonlight glistening against her green skin, her large, perky breasts being held in place by her right arm which she was using in an attempt to cover herself. Honestly it was both arousing and adorable. Sunset just bit her lip and despite herself let out a small moan of delight as she continued to take in the sight before her.
Wallflower looked over at her friend and saw that Sunset was blushing as bright red as she usually was. "I-i'm s-sorry about all this" Wallflower stuttered "I-I di-didn't mean to embarrass you in front of all your friends" she pouted as she hung her head. Sunset just walked-up to Wallflower and lifted her chin-up with her palm. "Oh-sweetie, I already told you that none of this is your fault" Sunset softly cooed as she used the back of her other palm to softly rub Wallflowers cheek as the girl began to sniffle once more and her cheeks turned blush red. At this point Sunset could hardly contain herself. The site was just too adorable so she dove in and gave Wallflower a deep passionate kiss on the lips.
At first the shy girl made out a small nervous squeaking sound as she had not been prepared for the sensation, but after the initial sense of fear quickly passed she found herself feeling, well something she didn't know quite how to explain. shortly after however Sunset removed her lips from the uncertain Wallflower "I-i'm sorry" Sunset apologized, th-that was inappropriate wasn't it" Sunset blushed feeling she had just offended her friend again. Wallflower said nothing however and as Sunset's face met the girl's once more she saw Wallflower blushing her eyes wide like pools staring at Sunset with a mixture of innocent curiosity and lustful longing. Sunset gulped and realized that once again she was being her own worst enemy, she had just come up to console her friend and help her get dressed, take her back home, that was it, but now, here by the light of the moon was a beautiful girl who's eyes were begging for more of what she had just been given, and quite frankly Sunset knew she didn't have the self control to deny them.
"Y-you know, I mean, you're practically undressed anyway, and- there's a bed right there...." Sunset began as she took Wallflower's hand in hers and did a "come on" Motion with her head towards Rarity's bed. Wallflower still in a state of hazed bliss from the kiss just followed Sunset over to soft cloud of satin before her. As Sunset gently lay Wallflower on the bed she couldn't help but further take in the girl's beauty, her hair wild and long, green like the grass itself. Her freckles, each making her more and more adorable. her skin was perfect and smooth, her breasts perky round orbs, the nipples like flower buds waiting to bloom. Sunset slowly felt over Wallflower's form as she caressed the girl's body with her palms starting with her hair and slowly down to her face, neck, breasts, stomach and then.... Sunset paused briefly as she grabbed the bikini bottom. "I'm going to take this off now, OK?" Sunset softly told the girl. Wallflower still said nothing but just continued to blush as she stared at Sunset. The girl taking that as a yes slowly removed the bottoms and threw them over to the side.
Now that Wallflower was completely, natural so to speak Sunset looked at the girl's lower garden. A tiny bit of hair above shaped in the form of a flower. Sunset finding it cute though wondering why Wallflower would do such a thing if she never expected anyone to see it, or maybe she had, Sunset playfully thought to herself as she could see that even just this had already gotten the shy girls nethers wanting as a small wetness began to leak from her folds.
"So, you really do want this then?" Sunset asked trying to hold back her enjoyment.
"Uh....huh." Wallflower nervously rapsed. That being all that Sunset needed to hear as she put to of her fingers together and inserted them inside of Wallflower's walls. The girl made out a small meeping noise as the surprise caused her to shiver a bit. Sunset noticed this and let out a small chuckle as she began to work her fingers back and forth inside of her friend.
"Ooohhhh" Wallflower moaned as she found herself enjoying the sensation. Sunset letting out a soft chuckle. "You know, if we were in Equestria right now I could use a spell to turn myself into a stallion and give you a proper rutting" she cooed in a sultry tone. "Sadly magic doesn't work like that in this world and I don't have my strap-on with me, so i'm afraid this is the best I can do for you at the moment" Sunset explained, not that Wallflower seemed to care as this was enough to send the girl in a state of ecstasy.
Sunset took in delight in bringing her friend such pleasure and quickened her pace until she felt Wallflower was almost at the point of orgasm and then stopped. "W-why'd you stop?" Wallflower whined as she looked up at Sunset. "Because, I need relief too." Sunset devilishly smiled as she took off her swimsuit as well, the girl's fiery body now as exposed as her friends. Wallflower blushed even more then she already was. Sunset was tall, petite yet still had a rather nice hourglass figure. Her breasts were only average in size but still beautiful, and her hips were perfectly proportioned. "Get in the middle of the bed" Sunset commanded pointing at Wallflower. Wallflower quickly did as she was told and positioned herself in the middle of Rarity's bed, hoping that obeying would mean she would soon get relief from all this build-up. Sunset smiled mischievously as she too jumped onto the love cloud and looked down at Wallflower. "You ready?" See cooed. "Y-yea-yes please!" Wallflower begged. "Good" Sunset smiled as she turned around positioning her sex right in-front of Wallflower's face.
At first this confused the girl as she didn't know exactly what Sunset was up too, but this confusion soon dissipated as she felt Sunset's tounge enter her folds, causing Wallflower to moan out in pleasure. Wallflower realized now what this was as Sunset was wiggling her own ass in front of the girl. Wallflower despite her on euphoria realized she had an obligation to her friend Sunset, just as Sunset had to her as she dove in and began to eat out her friend. Wallflower took in the hot tangy and spicy taste of Sunset's juices as she began too explore the girls folds with her tongue. Meanwhile Sunset continued doing the same to wallflower. The two girls continued this until both had achieved a steady rhythm that was perfect for each other as discovered by the frequency and intensity of moans of pleasure. And as if like magic, the two girls found themselves climaxing at near exactly the same time. Both letting out rather loud and passionate shrieks of pleasure.
After the deed was done the two just lay next to each other looking at one another's juice soaked faces glow in the moon light. Wallflower just smiled as Sunset did the same before closing her eyes and loosing conciousness. Sunset just smiled, she knew Rarity would probably be mad at her tomorrow, but for now her world was perfect. She inched closer to the now unconscious Wallflower and kissed her on the forehead. "Good night my little Sunflower" Sunset chuckled taking pleasure in her own pet name. "Sleep well" She smiled as she grabbed the top blanket and did her best to cover her and her girlfriend up.
Meanwhile downstairs the rest of the Rainbooms and Trixie as well of course looked-up at the ceiling having heard some of the noises coming from upstairs. "Well, I suppose we'll all be sleeping downstairs tonight" Rarity chuckled as the others just blushed and/or groaned, save for Pinkie Pie who seemed quite confused. "Why?" The girl innocently asked. Rainbow Dash just rolling her eyes and slapping Pinkie on the back of the head. Trixie just looking up the stairs and thinking to herself "Wallflower you are one lucky girl" She chuckled before sighing as she got-up to help Rarity and Twilight get the sleeping bags out of a nearby closet.

Well that's one way to improve a sleepover I guess.
Next time, Lazy Sunday, then back to school, life and chaos for Sunset and the rest!
A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 6: Sunday, Lazy Sunday
Rarity slowly hummed a happy tune as she and Pinkie finished preparing breakfast for the rest of the Rainbooms, and their unexpected additional guests as well of course.
"Well I dare say Ms. Pie, I do think we may have made the perfect pancakes" Rarity smiled. "Simply Magnifique!" She sang with a kiss.
"Yea, they look super duper yummy yummersons!!" Pinkie agreed with an excited cheer as she licked her lips looking eagerly at the large stack of flapjacks, steam still coming off them as Rarity drizzled the syrup atop of the mountain of deliciousity. "Now, now Pinkie, please show some restraint, these are for all of us. I don't want your gluttonous appetite hoarding them all again like you did with the cupcakes last night!" Rarity scolded looking seriously at the cotton-candy haired girl who just let out a small pout and gave her friend sad longing puppy dog eyes. Before Rarity could comment on Pinkie's childish behavior however she heard footsteps slowly coming down the stairs as Sunset and Wallflower, who had apparently helped themselves to Rarity's pajama's slowly came down both having a blush on their face, uncertain of what to say.
"So, I guess on top of helping yourselves to my bed last night you also decided to help yourselves to my cloths as well "Rarity teased. "Well I hope you also had enough sense to borrow the shower" She finished with a laugh. "Yea, ahh...sorry about that" Sunset awkwardly replied. "I-I ah can help you do your laundry later if you want." She sheepishly offered with.
"Oh no darling it's quite all right, it's not as if I am unfamiliar with getting caught-up in the heat of the moment" Rarity chuckled looking at the two girls, Wallflower now Blushing even moreso then she had been. "Besides Sunday is laundry day around here anyway, so no real harm done." Rarity reassured the two. "Now then" She paused as she cleared her throat. "OK everyone, time for breakfast!" She happily sang as Pinkie's smile returned and the girl grabbed roughly half the stack wit her fork and plopped them down on her plate, the others just chuckling as they approached the square island in the kitchen area.
Later after everyone had finished breakfast and gotten cleaned and dressed the girls decided it was time to head out.
"So, I was going to head to the library, anyone want to tag along?" Twilight asked quite enthusiastically.
"Sorry darling, but as I said earlier i'll be busy here today" Rarity chuckled looking over at Sunset and Wallflower.
"Oh, i'd love to Twilight, but I should probably go to the shelter and check-up on the critters" Fluttershy shyly added "I mean today is supposed to be Zephyr's day to watch them, but, well-you all know how my brother can be." Fluttershy huffed in annoyance thinking back to all the times her younger brother had messed up even the simplest of tasks. The other girls just laughing in agreement.
"And I gotta get home and help Maud polish her rock collection. Oh you should see how shiny and sparkly they get after a good polishing!" Pinkie cheered.
"Yea, and I best be headin home as well" AJ agreed. "Big Mac N Granny smith'll be needin help on the farm and ah also promised ahd help Applebloom fix ah hole in the roof at the Crusader's tree house" The cowgirl explained.
"Oh" Twilight sighed as she looked at her remaining friends. "i'm guessing you have plans too" Twilight sighed.
"Well, not really" Sunset admited. "Though I should probably walk Wallflower home, besides you still need to go by the school and plant that Ghost Lilly or whatever you got yesterday, right?" Sunset asked Wallflower who said nothing but just shook her head yes with a blush.
"Oh, OK I understand" Twilight softly smiled. "What about you two, Rainbow? Trixie?" Twilight asked the remaining two girls.
"Sorry Twi, I mean, I love vegging out with a good book as much as the next girl" Rainbow reluctantly admitted "But I was gonna go to the park today and practice my soccer moves" Rainbow told the girl. "Huh, what a coincidence, Trixie was going to go to the park today as well" The mischievous girl smiled. "Guess we can go together" She boldly stated causing Rainbow Dash to make a face of utter disgust, before gulping to swallow her pride. She knew Trixie was just trying to rile her up again in another attempt to get back at her for last night. "Hehe-sure-why not" Rainbow faux-laughed while doing her best to make a fake smile as she grit her teeth. Twilight meanwhile just sighed once more.
"Hey Twi, don't get all down in the dumpy-dumps!" Pinkie smiled. "I mean it's not like you'll be all alone at that big ol dusty library" Pinkie continued "I mean odds are at the very least Moondacner or Microchip will be there too, maybe you can hang out with them!" Pinkie reassured the girl giving her a sincere smile.
"You're right Pinkie, OK then, i'll see you all at school tomorrow I guess" Twilight sighed as she picked-up her bag and headed out the door, waving goodbye to her friends. Meanwhile Sunset handed Wallflower her plant and smiled. "Guess we should get going too. Wallflower just blushed and stuttered "Y-yea"
Rainbow Dash couldn't hide her annoyance any longer. For some reason unbeknownst to her Trixie Lulamoon the most annoying girl at Canterlot High had decided to tag along with her to the park. True Trixie had behaved on the walk there, that is to say at least the girl had kept her yap shut instead of talking about herself 24/7 like she usually did, but this didn't change the fact the girl still irritated Rainbow by merely existing. Thankfully they soon arrived at the park and this finally gave Rainbow a sense of relief.
"OK, were here!" Rainbow happily exclaimed. "Welp, time to go our separate ways I guess" Dash chuckled as she began to walk away from the girl whom she considered the source of her grumpiness.
"Not quite yet" Trixie mischievously chuckled, giving Rainbow Dash a sly smile.
"W-what!?" Rainbow Dash asked rather shocked "C'mon I let you walk to the park with me and I didn't even say a word!" Rainbow whined. "And neither did you thankfully" She added at the end. "What else could you possibly need me to do for you!?" Rainbow angrily shrieked.
"Talk" Trixie replied. The simple single word said in such a certain manner it took rainbow back a bit.
"Talk?" Rainbow asked rather confused.
"Yes" Trixie confidently replied with a smile.
"OK-But why?" Rainbow Dash curiously asked.
Trixie paused for a bit before she let out a deep sigh. "Because" She nervously gulped before continuing "Because I know you hate me and I want to fix that!" Trixie hastily admitted. Rainbow Dash taken back yet again by the girls blunt words, standing there frozen uncertain of what to say. "Listen, it's not like I like you that much either" Trixie continued "But you're Sunset's friend and this beef you have with me and Wallflower is causing a rift between you two, and-and that's not right!" Trixe bluntly stated once more.
"I-I-Ah" Rainbow Dash stuttered, uncertain of how to reply.
"Sunset is very precious to me" Trixie admitted with a blush "I know you and the other girls have been friends with her a lot longer then Wallflower or I have, but-I-I want her to be happy, and I know the fights she's had with you recently have hurt her, even if she won't admit it!" Trixie exclaimed. "So please, just-just give me a chance, so maybe you won't hate me, and maybe Sunset can be happy around all of her friends again" Trixie pleaded, tears welling up in her eyes.
Once again Rainbow Dash felt lower then low, she hadn't expected Trixie of all people to say something like this, though Sunset had told her that the girl was a bit more self-aware then she let on. Rainbow Dash just let out a heavy sigh before replying. "OK" The girl agreed. "OK, I'll give you a chance, so.....let's get to know each other or whatever....I guess." Rainbow Dash awkwardly agreed, Trixie squeeing as a large smile covered her face.
Sunset looked at the quaint little cottage that Wallflower called home. The house was a small single story building nestled by the woods at the edge of town, built like something you would see in a Thomas Keneigh painting. And as expected the garden was beautiful. "T-thanks for walking me home" Wallflower blushed "And helping be get my new plant put in the garden earlier" She added with a small soft smile.
"Think nothing of it, that's what friends are for" Sunset smiled as he put her hand on Wallflower's shoulder. "Besides I bet your parents are worried about you" She added with a soft chuckle.
"I doubt it" Wallflower sighed. "Mom's off giving one of her botany speeches at Manhatten University and Dad is a curator at the museum so he's pretty busy all the time as well." The girl sorrowfully explained.
"So, you're a latchkey kid" Sunset inquired.
"Yea, more or less. I mean, I love my parents, they're really nice people, and super smart-you and Twilight would like em alot" Wallflower smiled. "It's just...." She paused.
"You wish they were here more often" Sunset empathetically replied staring down at her friend.
"Yea" Wallflower admitted.
Sunset just walked towards the house and looked back at Wallflower "Well it's not like I have much of anything else to do today, so why don't you show me around?" Sunset asked her friend with a smile, Wallflower letting out a happy squee before blushing and covering her mouth, shaking her head yes in agreement.
Rainbow Dash and Trixie set under a large oak tree at the park before Dash broke the awkard silence. "OK, you go first." Rainbow Dash huffed, wanting to get this cheesy attempt at bonding over with. "Very well" Trixie replied with a devious smile. "Let me tell you a story" Rainbow Dash looked over at Trixie curiously as the girl began her tale.
"A long time ago there was a happy couple who lived in Manehattan. They were happy because they were about to give birth to a beautiful baby girl" Trixie began "But little did they know the girl would be the thing that ruined their happiness" Trixie sorrowfully sighed. Rainbow Dash now even more curious. "You see, the girl was born prematurely, she was weak, fragile like glass, but her parents were strong and their love kept her alive." Trixie continued. "As she got older however her weak constitution became even more and more of a burden on her family, bills pilled up and it strained the loving couples relationship. Eventually the girl's mother had had enough, claiming that she had never signed up to have a defective child, so the girl's mother left leaving the father to raise the girl all alone." Trixie explained as she began to sniffle. "But the father was not prepared for this and he hit the bottle hard in his depression." Trixie sniffled even more now. "And the girl who was just six years old didn't understand what was going on or why mommy had left, or why daddy was always mad at her now, why he hit her and screamed at her" Trixie continued on with the sad tale her tears increasing. "But eventually Auntie came and whisked Trixie away to the magical city of Canterlot" Trixie smiled through her tears. "And in her new home the girl knew she had a second chance, she didn't have to be a burden anymore, so the girl was determined to be strong!" Trixie triumphantly cheered, wiping the tears from her eyes. "And with her Auntie's love and her determination she did get stronger, so she would never be a burden again. Sadly the only way she knew how to become stronger was by reinventing herself, so over time she began to overcompensate more and more afraid if she faltered even for a moment she would be that weak little girl mommy and daddy abandoned so long ago" Trixie finished giving Rainbow Dash a soft melancholic smile.
"T-Trixie, oh my God-I-I'm sorry-I-I didn't know" Rainbow Dash gasped as she too wiped the tears that had formed in her eyes.
"Well of course not, it's not like Trixie goes around telling everyone her life story, not even her dear friend Sunset Shimmer knows of her past" Trixie proudly admitted.
Rainbow Dash just looked at the girl confused and laughed "Heh, I guess we really do have a lot in common" Rainbow Dash chuckled.
"Oh, how so?" Trixie curiously inquired.
"Well, you know my little sister Scootalloo....right?" Rainbow asked the girl.
"You mean the purple haired pipsqueak always hanging around with hairbow and squeaky belle, yea I know her" Trixie teased. Rainbow Dash just rolling her eyes. "Well anyway, her story isn't that different from yours" Rainbow Dash sighed. "You see, when scoots was a baby she was left at our doorstep, we don't know how or why, my parents even contacted the police, but the officers said there hadn't been any reports of any stolen or missing babies, so there wasn't much they could do" Rainbow Dash explained.
"OK, so what does that have to do with me?" Trixie curoiusly asked.
"Well, you see" Rainbow Dash gulped. "Scootaloo was born with a rare heart conditoin. I know you probably can't tell given how rambunctious she is, but yea...when she was dropped at my parents doorstep there was a note that said this is broken, we don't want it. Rainbow Dash began to sniffle herself "When my parents took Scoots for her first check-up they found out what the note meant. But unlike whatever monster abandoned her they didn't care, the'yve spent their entire lives loving her just as much as they have me" Rainbow sniffled some more. "But" she began. "But what" Trixie asked.
"Because of Scoots condition she can never play sports like I do." Rainbow sobbed. "I-I mean sure she can play around like any kid does, but every year she asks if this is the year she can be on the soccer team or the baseball team or basketball team and my mom and I have to sit her down and explain to her why she can't. A-and" Rainbow began to sob even more "And I see the hurt in her eyes. She looks up to me so much and wants to be an athlete just like me and my dad before me, and we have to sit there and tell her, sorry kid, you're not strong enough. And I hate it!" Rainbow Dash finished sobbing as much as Trixie was before.
Trixie just looked at Rainbow Dash and let out a soft smile. "Well, maybe next time just say yes" Trixie smiled. Rainbow Dash just looked at Trixie as she wiped away the tears. "Well I mean even if she can't play that doesn't mean she can't be on the team, i'm sure she'd be fine even just being the towl girl as long as she got to spend more time with her awesome sister." Trixie chuckled as she dusted off her skirt and offered to help Rainbow up.
"I guess we do have some things in common, though my problem was my immune system, not my ticker" Trixie chuckled as the rainbow haired girl took her hand. "And you know, if my immune system eventually got stronger as I got older, I bet Scootaloo's heart can as well. Especially with a family as awesome as yours" Trixie reassured the cyan teen. Rainbow Dash just smiled and gave Trixie a thumbs up. "Hell yea, there's nothing my family can't do!" The girl proudly proclaimed as Trixie began to clap.
Sunset took in her surroundings. The house was quaint, it had a nice relaxing and rustic feel to it. The living room looked like something out of the late 19th century with extravagant furniture and walls lined with book shelves full of books. A record player in the corner with a collection of classical music and old pop and rock records in a basket nearby. "No TV?" Sunset curiously asked. "Nope" Wallfower blushed. "We all have our own laptops so my parents never really saw a need for one" Wallflower explained. "Yea, I guess that makes sense" Sunset smiled. "Nice house anyway" She sang. "So where should we go next? The kitchen, the restroom, your room?" Sunset asked with a smirk.
"N-not yet, I-maybe next time" Wallflower blushed. At first Sunset wondered why the girl didn't want her to see her room, but quickly reluctantly accepted. "OK then, i'll see you at school tomorrow." Sunset sighed as she walked up to the shy girl. "Until next time my little sunflower" Sunset teased as she kissed Wallflower on the forehead, the girl just turning blush red as she watched Sunset turn around and wave good bye. Slowly and awkwardly waving back as Sunset headed out the door.

Welp, that was a chapter.
Sorry in advance for errors, was fighting the clock on this one too. Will go back and fix mistakes later, thanks in advance for reading.
Next time, things get even more shippy!
A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 7: The New Normal!?
Chapter 7: The New Normal!?
Sunset shimmer let out a deep relaxed sigh as she stretched out and felt the sunlight warm her body. It wasn't often she was in such a good mood on a Monday, but something about this one just felt, different. It felt like for once, even if for just a brief moment she had nothing to worry about, that she didn't have a care in the world. Sunset let out a small happy laugh as she smiled and did a small twirl as she crossed the street, finally arriving at CHS.
"How yea been old girl" Sunset chuckled as she looked-up at the school, the building looking quite elegant in the morning sun. "Admiring the architecture?" She heard a voice jokingly ask from behind only to turn around to see Twilight and Rarity, oh and Spike too of course.
"Hehe, yea" Sunset smiled at her friends "So how was everybody's Sunday?" Sunset inquired.
"Well, after I finished cleaning-up you and Wallflower's mess, quite relaxing actually" Rarity replied, causing Sunset to blush. "Finished a romance novel while soaking in a nice bath." She explained.
"The Library was ok, though I wish they'd get some new books already, i've read their entire fantasy, world history, physics and biology sections like a dozen times by now!" The adorkable girl complained.
"Good morning everyone" They heard yet another voice greet them. The three girls and young pup looking over to see Fluttershy who was walking towards them, yanking her much taller older brother Zephyr Breeze by the ear.
"Ow, ow, stop it sis! I said I was sorry!" The green skinned boy whined.
"Oh heavens Fluttershy, what did Zephyr do this time?" Rarity asked.
"Zephyr here has been using his new obsession with photography to take upskirts shots of our classmates "Fluttershy grumbled. "So before the first bell rings we're going to go in and you're going to apologize to each and every girl in the school, aren't you Zeph" Fluttershy growled pulling her brother's ear even tighter.
"Oh, oh, OK OK i'll apologize!!" He whined. "Though you know not every girl wears skirts so I don't see why I have to apologize to alll...yeooww!" he whaled as Fluttershy pulled his hair this time. "OK, OK, everyone it is! Sheesh, calm down sis!" Zephyr complained as Fluttershy began to drag him into the school, the rest of the girls just chuckling.
Later inside Canterlot High sunset had said goodbye to her friends and was heading towards her locker. However when she arrived she noticed a very familiar face waiting for her. There setting against her locker staring at the ground was Wallflower Blush. Sunset gave a soft smile and walked towards her friend. "Morning Wallflower, how yea doin?" She happily asked her friend. Wallflower just looked-up and gave Sunset one of her patented blushes.
"I-I'm good" Wallflower half-smiled as she nervously brushed her fingers through her hair. "H-hey, c-can I ask you something!?" She nervously stuttered.
"Sure" Sunset smiled "You know i'm always here for you" The girl reassured her friend.
"O-OK, good" Wallflower nervously chuckled. "W-well you see, I-I wanted to-to ask about the other night-w-when we" Wallflower stuttered even more "when we you know.....had....s-s-sex" The girl nervously muttered her face now bright red. "I-I wa-was wondering i-if maybe th-if that meant that you know....we were a couple now?" Wallflower finally spat out her question looking up at Sunset with longing eyes, her face still blush red.
Sunset however who was blushing now as well just gulped while trying to think of a reply. She knew Wallflower was still emotionally fragile. She had done her best to help build the girl up over the past month, but the wrong words could really hurt her. Sunset didn't want to lie however, the truth was that she had just been extremely impulsive that night, she hadn't thought about the repercussions of their "funtime" in Rarity's bedroom. Sunset set just let out a couple of deep breaths to calm her self down before replying and looked at Wallflower and softly asked. "Do-do you want us to be?"
Wallflower looked at Sunset and then down at the ground, most likely contemplating the question and looking for the right answer. "I-I think so" Wallflower nervously replied. "D-do you?" she asked looking back up at Sunset. Sunset froze for a moment and thought about it. It had been quite awhile since she had dated anyone, and she didn't exactly end her relationship with Flash Sentry on the best note, even if the two had become friends again since. And it's not like her dating a girl would surprise anyone, it's not like she ever tried to hide the fact she was bisexual, not even back when she was a bully.
"Hmm, well....I guess it wouldn't hurt to try" Sunset chuckled looking at Wallflower, giving her a kind yet seductive look. "I mean I haven't been out on a date er "hangout" in forever" She chuckled as she mocked Twilight's use of the vernacular for such. "How about you and me, this Friday evening at the mall, I bet there's at least one movie playing we can both agree on." Sunset chuckled as she gave wallflower a wink.
The shy green girl just gave a wide excited smile as her eyes grew big "O-OK, Sounds great! I'll see you then!" She cheered as she gave Sunset a quick and tight hug. "Oh. but, we can still hang out outside of that right?" The girl quickly asked panicked at the thought of not getting to see her friend again till Friday. "Hehe, of course, i'll see you at lunch" Sunset smiled as she patted Wallflower on the head frizzing up her hair a bit before heading off to her first class.
Meanwhile a certain blue magician watched the whole thing play out "Hmmph, don't think i'm just going to let you win that easily Wallflower, Trixie always gets what she wants, just you wait until I make my move, Sunset will finally realize how sensational and sexy the fabulous and friendly Trixie actually is!" Trixie mischievously chuckled as she walked back towards her locker. "And now that I got the rainbow haired buffoon on my side, we'll see who Sunset's favorite really is!" Trixie smiled as she grabbed her algebra book and headed to class chuckling all the way.

A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 8: A Trixie Never Gives Up! (Warning: NSFW near end)
It was lunch time at Canterlot High and all the students were gathered in their usual spots, chatting and chuckling as they chowed down. Trixie looked around and let out a melancholic sigh. As much as she hated to admit it, The Rainbooms had done a great job making the school a better place. Cliques weren't so tight and cliche and students were more then willing to expand their circle of friends. Well most of the time. Trixie knew most of the school could find her somewhat flamboyant attitude grating at times, not that she really cared. Thankfully however none of that mattered as she was friends with the only other girl in school as great and powerful as her. And soon hopefully more.
"Room for one more?" Trixie asked as she approached the Rainbooms table looking down at Sunset and smiling, ignoring the fact that Wallflower Blush was sitting on the opposite side next to her.
"Sure" Sunset softly smiled as she motioned for Trixie to sit down. The rest of the girls just awkwardly greeting Sunset's newest friend not wanting to have a repeat of the weekend's slumber party.
"Hey Trix" Rainbow Dash waved to Trixie giving off her usual confident smile. The rest of the group somewhat confused by this.
"um, excuse me Rainbow, I don't wish to bring up any previous Drama, but I was under the impression you were not all that fond of Ms. Lulamoon" Rarity responded.
"Eh, that was then, this is now" Rainbow non-chelauntly answered.
"Really?" Sunset asked in a surprised yet happy tone.
"Indeed" Trixie answered before Rainbow had the chance. "You see Dash and I had a talk and we came to realize we weren't all that different and that neither of us was really as bad as the other thought" Trixie chuckled giving a mischievous smile and a wink at Dash. The athletic teen just awkwardly rubbing the back of her neck.
"Well i'm glad to hear it" Sunset smiled. "And now that I know that all my friends can get along, that'll make this a whole lot easier" Sunset sighed in relief.
"Make what easier?" Twilight asked curiously.
"Well" Sunset began "Wallflower and I have been talking and we decided we want to make it official. We're a couple!" Sunset smiled as she wrapped her arm around the shy flower loving girl's.
"OH MY GOSH REALLY!!??!" Pinkie Pie asked excitedly.
"Hehe, yes Pinkie, really" Sunset chuckled.
"Well, i'm happy for you Sunset, i'm sure we all are. Right girls?" Twilight exclaimed.
"Indeed Darling" Rarity added. "Plus Sunflower is such a cute couple name, oh that gives me an idea for a line of dresses!" Rairty finished as she trailed off.
"I...I think that it's nice y-you two both found someone who can make you happy" Fluttershy shyly stuttered.
"ITS SO FREAKIN ADORABLE!!" Pinkie Cheered.
"Eh, I don't care much for mushy romance stuff, but hey, you coulda done worse I guess" Rainbow teased.
"well, if this means I have one more friend ta help me on the farm this summer i'm game" AJ added.
Sunset just smiled and looked around at her friends, glad to be getting such support from them. Then back at Wallflower. "See sweetie, I told you they'd be cool with it."
"Y-yea" Wallflower blushed as she played with her hair giving a soft smile.
Trixie just chuckled. "Well I guess one of us better tell Flash, I think he still secretly thought he had a chance with you" The magician teased. Sunset just rolling her eyes but nodding in agreement with the girl. "This is going to work" Sunset happily thought. "All my friends are getting together, no crazy rouge magic or artifacts have popped up lately and I finally have the courage to be in a relationship again. Everything is coming up Sunset" The girl happily thought to herself. Meanwhile she didn't notice Trixie's smug expression or realize the girl was making plans of her own.
"You won't get away from me that easily Sunset Shimmer. Not by a long shot." Trixie internally monolouged as she did her best to resist the urge to smile deviously.
As the final school bell rang Sunset picked up her bag and began a steady jog out to the front of the school. Like many other students Sunset just felt that there was something cathartic about hearing that bell ring, especially on Mondays and Fridays. She could finally get back to the loft she called home and finish the next level of Tirek's revenge and that stack of Power Ponies comics she had let pile-up recently. Sunset however was brought out of her thoughts of afternoon plans for fun and relaxation when she heard a very familiar voice calling her name.
"Sunset!" Trixie yelled as she waved at the girl motioning for her to come over. At first Sunset was a bit taken back by this. She wasn't used to having Trixie of all people wait to see her after school. But as she didn't want to be rude she just walked towards her friend, curious to see what she needed.
"Hey Trix, whats up?" Sunset asked.
"Well, Trixie has something very important she needs to ask you" Trixie nervously admitted.
"Oh, what's that? Don't tell me you lost another frog inside the school again. You know you really should switch to bunnies" Sunset chuckled.
"No, it's.its not that" Trixie awkwardly answered. "You see...well...the thing is" Trixie mumbled. "I....may kind of....need some, you know....help with my math homework" The great and powerful teen admitted.
Sunset looked at Trixie and did her best not to laugh. She knew how stubborn and prideful the girl was, so asking for help was not something she did easily, and darn it Sunset just couldn't resist the urge to tease. "Now when you say some help you really mean....." Sunset paused waiting for Trixie to finish her sentence.
"OK I mean a lot of help!" Trixie huffed. "If I don't get better soon i'm gonna fail Mr. Cranky's class!" Trixie admitted. "Please Sunset you've gotta help me!!" Trixie begged.
"OK, OK" Sunset replied. "Though I don't see why you don't ask Fluttershy, I mean you two do have the same class together" Sunset noted.
Trixie just paused. "Well I mean, yea, but....you know how close Fluttershy is with Rainbow Dash and Rarity. And even if I am getting along a bit better with your friends now, can you honestly say those two wouldn't tease me about this if they ever found out" Trixie pouted once more giving Sunset sad puppy dog eyes.
Sunset just rolled her eyes and let out a small chuckle. "OK, OK, yea I can see where you're coming from. You need help but don't want anyone else to know, I get it." Sunset exclaimed. "And hey, helping each other out is what friends do, right, so I guess i'm yours for the afternoon" Sunset cockily smiled at Trixie.
"OH THANK YOU!" Trixie cheered as she tightly hugged the bacon haired teen. Giving off a devious smile as she did. "Operation Win Over Sunset is A Go!" She thought to herself.
Sunset looked-up at the sight before her, a fairly old looking two or more accuratly one and a half story house. The wood was painted a pale blue with purple tiles on the roof and black linning on the sides. Large windows on the botton with more medium windows on the floor above which was circular in shape and almost seem to be shaped like a witch's hat.
"Your place is ahh....unique" Sunset nervously chuckled not wanting to offend her friend.
"Yes, well my aunt is a bit of an....eccentric" Trixie replied as she fiddled with her keychain until she found the key she needed to unlock the front door. "Taa-duh!" Trixie exclaimed as the door swung open and she motioned for Sunset to come inside.
"So, what does your aunt do? Is she here?" Sunset curiously asked looking over at Trixie.
Trixie just chuckled. "well she's I guess what you would call a magical freelancer" Trixie chuckled. "Like most in my family she's obsessed with things like magic and the supernatural, so she does whatever she can, Palm readings, tarot cards, even helped some friends with a couple ghost hunts and exorcisms" Trixie chuckled.
"Wow, she sounds intense" Sunset replied.
"Not really" Trixie rebutted "She's pretty silly, kind of a scatterbrained dingbat really. But she's passionate about what she does and I love her for it all the same" Trixie smiled. "Now to answer your second question. No she's not here at the moment, it's a Monday night so she'll probably be out late with her friends. So it's just you and me till at least 10 P.M." Trixie explained.
"Well, hopefully it won't take that long to a crack these equations" Sunset chuckled as she got her math book out of her bag and proudly put it on display. "so, where's your room?" Sunset asked her friend.
"Upstairs of course" Trixie stated "The great and powerful Trixie always gets the luxury sweet" She joked. "now c'mon let's get this party started!" She replied as she grabbed Sunset by the arm and began to run-up the stairs her surprised friend clumsily running behind.
Upstairs Trixie listed all the rooms as the passed down the circular crooked hall. "The big one with two doors is the master bedroom, that' my aunts" Trixie explained. "Then this small door is a linen closet, next to it is the room the heater and ac are in, this door in the middle is the bathroom and all the way down here..." Trixie paused as the turned the corner getting to the end of the crooked hall "This, This is the Great and Powerful Trixie's room!" Trixie happily exclaimed as she opened the door and Sunset took a peek inside.
The room was for lack of a better term, quite odd. being at the edge of the second floor the shape was a bit off, the walls were shorter at one end and slanted to be much taller on the other leading into a small circular window not all that different from the one Sunset had seen in Twilight rooms. The left side had more of a square shape and there was a desk up against the wall with books and a lamp, moving rightward there was a large chest Sunset guessed Trixie most likely kept her props for her magic tricks in then further still was a rather large bed that looked out of place in the room, Unmade and clumpy, obviously Trixie didn't make her bed every morning. Beyond that a door Sunset guessed led into a closet and then on the right most side the room took a more circular form as a medium square window set more close to ground level having a small cushioned area under it for one to sit and relax, Sunset noticing a few small plushies adorned on it. two unicorns one blue one pinkish-purple. A teddy bear and a tadpole. One each side of the small cushioned space were small tight shelves adorned with nick-nacks like teacups, snow-globs, and old VHS tape, only a small clump of books in a single space. The most peculiar thing though was a lack of pictures in all of Trixie's room there wasn't a single framed photo, not of her or anyone else. Sunset wanted to ask why, but something told her it might be inappropriate.
"Uh...nice room" Sunset awkwardly exclaimed.
"Yea, I know" Trixie non-cheluantly replied as she walked into her safe space. "Now c'mon, let's make me just as great and powerful at math as I am everything else!" The magician chuckled. "And maybe if we spend enough time together you'll see how much better I am then that silly old Wallflower" Trixie internally chuckled.
"Ugg, I can't do this!!" Trixie angrilly whinned as she rubbed the temples of her head. "This is impossible!" She whinned again "Stupid Math! I hate you!!" She screeched at her book doing her best to resist the urge to tear it into shreds.
"Calm down Trixie" Sunset chuckled "I know it can be a pain but you'll get the hang of it, I promise" Sunset softly stated as she did her best to reassure her friend.
"Yea right!" Trixie pouted. "I'm a lost cause and you know it!"
Sunset just sighed as she rolled her eyes "Trixie you know that's not true." Sunset scolded "If you just apply yourself you can do anything." Sunset confidently stated.
"Yea, well not all of us are natural born geniuses like you!" Trixie rebutted.
Sunset just groaned. "Listen Trixie, believe it or not, i'm not as naturally gifted as you may think" Sunset admitted. Trixie looking at the girl wide-eyed rather surprised by this newfound information.
"Really?" She curiously asked.
"Yea" Sunset admitted. "When I first got to this world I was completely lost and confused" The girl stated. "I mean I had to learn how to read a whole new language!" Sunset exclaimed. "The portal may do a good job of adjusting our speech to whatever world we go into, but the rest....not so much" Sunset explained. "I had to re-learn everything! History, literature, math, science, you name it!" Sunset continued. "Thankfully though a lot of it was close enough to Equestria's that it didn't take me too long" She sighed in relief. "Save for the history, you humans are a lot more violent at times then we ponies ever were" Sunset cringed. Trixie just getting notably frustrated by now and wishing Sunset would get to the point. Sunset taking note of this and just chuckling.
"What i'm getting at is that even though it seems hard if you really try I know you can do it" Sunset softly smiled at her friend. Trixie just groaning and rolling her eyes. "Fine back to work then I suppose" Trixie sighed. Sunset just laughing and turning her attention back to the lesson.
"OK so if I subtract this here, and divide this by that then...." Trixie mumbled as she finally worked through the final question in the assignment. She huffed as she wiped a bead of sweat from her forehead. "OK, done, I think" She sighed as she put down her pencil and scooted her paper towards Sunset. "So teach, how'd I do?" Trixie sarcastically asked. Sunset just laughed and looked at the work in question.
"Well, it looks like...." Sunset purposefully paused making Trixie wait in anticipation.
"Like what!?" Trixie anxiously asked.
"It looks like you got it right!" Sunset cheered as she smiled at her friend.
"WHOA, REALLY!?" Trixie asked in disbeleif. "I mean uh, yea of course....it's like you said there's nothing the great and powerful Trixie can't do!" The blue teen faux-boasted.
"Well i'm proud of you Trixie" Sunset yawned as she stretched out her arms and looked at a nerbye clock noting it was a little after eight P.M. at this point. "Wow, I guess I better get going." Sunset chuckled as she began to put up her things into her bag.
"Yea I guess it is getting pretty...." Trixie began before stopping herself "Wait, no you idiot you can't just let her leave, that's not the plan, she was supposed to notice how amazing you were and fall madly in love with you!" The voice scolded. "But then again it's not like we did anything to show her such outside of whining about how much we hate math." Trixie internally admitted to herself.
"Well i'm off" Sunset replied, snapping Trixie back to noticing the girl was at her door.
"WAIT!" Trixie exclaimed. Sunset stopping and looking at her friend.
"D-do you really have to go, I mean, you know it's not that late, and we-we could I dunno, watch a movie or something." Trixie nervously argued.
"Well, i'm always up for a good flick, but Monday night's aren't exactly the best time for sleepovers Trix. Maybe next time." Sunset chuckled as she began to head out the door.
"WAIT!" Trixie screeched again. Sunset pausing once more.
"What?" Sunset huffed.
"U-uh, Trixie-I-ah-I ah-thank-thank you for helping me with my Math homework Sunset Shimmer" Trixie softly stuttered hoping Sunset wouldn't notice the tone of defeat in her voice.
"he, no problem, i'm always here if you need me." Sunset softly smiled. "Now if you'll excuse me I have a game waiting for me at home and...." Sunset began as she tried once more to walk out the door.
"WAIT!!" Trixie exclaimed yet again, louder then before. Sunset getting quite perturbed by this point.
"WHAT!?" Sunset loudly huffed back.
"P-Please don't go!" Trixie sobbed. Sunset taken back by this as she saw the usually proud and boastful girl crying and shaking as she stared straight at Sunset.
"Trixie, w-whats wrong?" Sunset asked rather confused.
Trixie gulped. Her attempts at being mischievous and manipulative didn't even come close to fruition, this was always the case, she liked to think she was as sly and tricky as her namesake, though she knew deep down this wasn't true, as much as she hated it she had not choice but to be honest with Sunset.
"I.....I...." Trixie stuttered. "I WANT US TO BE MORE THEN JUST FRIENDS!!" Trixie screeched as loudly as she could, Sunset surprised it didn't cause any of the window's to crack.
"W-what?" Sunset blinked as she asked rather confused.
"I Know you said you were with Wallflower now, and I know she's like super cute and shy and nerdy and all and that's like, your type or whatever" Trixie ranted. "But, well-i'm cute too yea know!" Trixie huffed as she took off her signature jacket revealing the sleeveless white shirt under, as well as her rather large breasts held within. Sunset just looked at her friend and blushed.
"T-trixe I" Sunset began but was unsure of what to say as her friend continued to strip, taking off her shoes and skirt until all she had on was here sleeveless shirt, purple & pink striped panties and her long colorful socks.
"See, I can be cute too" Trixie pouted. Sunset just backing-up a step and gulping.
"I know you think i'm just a whiny ugly braggart, but...I...I can be good too" Trixie pouted yet again as she walked up to Sunset. "So just....give me a chance....please" Trixie begged her eyes like wide pools looking straight into Sunset.
Sunset just gulped again. She knew she shouldn't give in. She promised Wallflower she would date her, but looking at Trixie the usually proud and boastful girl just staring at Sunset, her eyes begging, pleading....Sunset hated to admit it, but something about seeing such a self proclaimed powerful person in such a position kind of turned her on. And Trixie surprising her with a kiss sure didn't help things.
As the two girls tongues met Sunset let out a low groan feeling the same fire that had lit up inside her the other night with Wallflower return. She quickly realised this however and pushed Trixie away. "Trixie, no, stop...I can't!" Sunset exclaimed as she pushed the girl back, both of them breathing heavy.
"I, i'm with Wallflower" Sunset weakly rasped.
"I know" Trixie sniffled in reply "But, please...I...I promise I won't tell." Trixie continued to plead. Sunset just looked at her friend noticing her breasts seem to squeeze even tighter against the sleeveless white shirt. Sunset just let out another sigh.
"I shouldn't" She thought to herself "It would be wrong, i'd be betraying Wallflower and taking advantage of a friend who obviously is dealing with a lot of emotional stuff of her own right now" Sunset internally monolouged. She was quickly however knocked out of her thoughts when she felt Trixie rub up against her, the girl embracing her tightly.
"Please, I won't tell anyone, I promise." The girl repeated "Just this one time, please, I'll let you do anything you want" The girl continued to beg. And with that Sunset was down for the count and the lustful flames inside her began to burn brightly once more.
"A-anything I want" She gulped.
"Anything" Trixie sang.
Sunset just let out a heavy heated huff "OK, get on the bed and take off your shirt" Sunset commanded, seeing if Trixie was serious. The busty blue girl happily replying as she hopped on her bed and quickly took off her sleeveless white top.
"there" Trixie chuckled. Her top now bare and Sunset getting full view of her goods.
"OK, now the panties, and the socks....but slowly!" Sunset commanded.
"As you wish mistress" Trixie teased as she complied slowly pulling down her panties Sunset hoping she didn't get a nosebleed from the sight. Trixie continuing to chuckle as she pulled off her long colorful socks. "All yours, now what do you want to do with me?" Trixie playfully cooed.
Sunset thought for a minute and gave a devious smile. "OK, here's how this is gonna go. You don't get to decide if this is fast or slow, you got me hall heated up so i'm gonna get this out of me any way I see fit, and don't breath a word of this to anyone or i'll have to punish you, got it!" Sunset smirked in a cocky yet lustful tone.
"Hehe, as you wish" Trixie sang.
"First, I want you to play with yourself. fondle those big melons of yours and give your lower lip some love while I decide what to do next." Sunset demanded giving off another devilish smile.
"Whatever floats your boat" Trixie teased as she complied and began to play with her breasts and lower lips.
"Good" Sunset cooed as she watched the sight, quickly deciding what she wanted to do next.
"So, you got a strap-on anywhere in this dump" Sunset teased Trixie as the blue girl continued to play with herself.
"Y-yea, g-got that and a dildo in the secret compartment of my chest" Trixie replied as she let out a low moan.
Sunset smiled as she walked towards the treasure chest and opened it up, sorting through all the magic show props until she got to the bottom and felt around. It took a couple minutes but she felt a small square compartment and then a latch. With a click she opened it up and saw the mentioned strap on and dildo as well as a couple of dirty magazines with naked men and women on the front.
"Wow, VHS tapes, magazines, you really are old fashioned" Sunset chuckled as she picked up the dildo and strap on and headed back towards Trixie's bed.
"OK, stop touching yourself now" Sunset laughed. Trixie huffing but complying none the less. "I have a new idea" Sunset sang as she quickly inserted the dildo inside Trixie's twat and turned it on causing the girl to let out a moan. "OK now turn around ass up in the air!" Sunset commanded. Trixie promptly complying best she could. Sunset smiling as she began to undress.
"Wh-what are you?" Trixie tried to ask. But before she could she felt a large shaft enter her backside.
"I'm gonna rutt this ass while your other toy works hole #1" Sunset teased as she pushed both further into Trixie
"yeaa, yahhh" Trixie moaned. Sunset taking delight in this as she quickly began to rut Trixie's backside pushing the strap-on in and out at a rather fast pace causing Trixie to moan in pleasure and scream "Yes" over and over as her breathing got more heavy. Eventually the magician reached her tipping point and screamed as she climaxed and collapsed on her bed.
"Oh no, this isn't over yet!" Sunset exclaimed as she removed the strap-on and turned Trixie over, putting her nether's right in the girl's face. Trixie quickly picking up on what Sunset wanted as she began to eat the girl out. Sunset moaning in delight as Trixie's tongue playfully pierced her pussy. Soon Sunset also reached her boiling point and climaxed all over the sexy sorceress face.
"mmm, tasty" Trixie playfully chuckled as Sunset too now exhausted from their quick but intense session set back next to Trixie. The two girls just laid there breathing heavily as they smiled at each other.
"Well I guess a sleepover on A Monday isn't such a crazy idea" Sunset chuckled.
"you go clean-up and i'll pick the movie, i'm sure my aunt won't mind" Trixie chuckled back. Sunset just nodding with a smile. "In a minute, but right now I need a rest" Sunet yawned as she stretched and embraced Trixie.
"Oh my gosh, I can't believe this is happening!!!" Trixie internally cheered as she crept closer to Sunset and snuggled up against the girl. The two both quickly and unintentionally falling fast asleep.

A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 9: The Uncomfortable Calm Before The Storm
Sunset Shimmer had made a mistake. She had made a big mistake. And every second she thought about what she had done the previous night felt like a thousand ton of bricks were weighing her down. "What in Tartarus was I thinking!?" Sunset scolded herself out loud as she walked down the sidewalk towards Canterlot High.
"OK, maybe it's not that bad" She tried to reassure herself. "I mean you snuck out while Trixie was sleeping and before her aunt got home. You cleaned yourself up so at least you won't smell like you did anything wrong" Sunset chuckled as she nervously began to sweat. "I mean Trixie said she wouldn't say anything and she's your friend now so..." Sunset mumbled to herself as she found herself lost in anxious thought until she felt herself bump into something.
"Oh my gosh, i'm so sorry" Sunset pre-empitvly apologized.
"S'all good sunny" She heard a familiar voice chuckle. Sunset looked down and saw Flash Sentry picking himself back-up and dusting off his jacket. "Looks like you're a little on edge though." Flash stated as he looked at the distressed teen.
"Well, I guess, maybe a little" Sunset admitted with a huff. "Hey, I know it's been awhile, but could we talk?" Sunset asked. Flash Sentry just looking at her curiously.
"So it's like that huh?" Flash chuckled looking at Sunset.
"This isn't funny Flash!" Sunset huffed at her friend. "The very same day I tell all my friends me and Wallflower are going to be a thing I...I cheat on here with Trixie!" Sunset exclaimed.
"Yea, sounds like you're in quite the pickle." Flash bluntly stated.
"Don't you think I don't already know that!" Sunset angrily huffed at Flash. The young man a bit taken back by this.
"Sorry-sorry" Sunset apolgized. "It's just, I-I've worked so hard for so long to be better, and I thought I was finally there, but now....now I may end up hurting someone I care about.....just like....just like I did you" Sunset whinced as she closed her eyes and began to sob.
Flash let out a heavy sigh "Listen Sunset, it's OK. You are a good person, and you have changed a lot since the Fall Formal, just ask anyone at school" Flash attempted to reassure her. "But even good people can make mistakes." Flash halfheartedly chuckled. "I may not be your boyfriend anymore, but I am still your friend, and i'm always here for you" Flash smiled as he laid his hand on Sunset's shoulder.
"Thanks Flash" Sunset softly smiled. "I think I do feel a bit better now, I still have no idea what the heck i'm going to do, but at lest I feel a bit better."
"Anytime" Flash smiled "Though if you wanna help pay me back you could always try to help me win over Twilight" He slyly cooed.
"This world's or Equestria's?" Sunset jokingly asked.
"Eh, i'm not picky, either one'll do" he chuckled.
"Yea, sorry, afraid I can't help you there" Sunset laughed along with her friend.
"well hey, can't blame a guy for trying." Flash awkwardly smiled giving a small blush as Sunset waved goodbye and headed into the school.
At her locker Sunset breathed out a sigh of relief. Flash was right, she was a better person now, and even if she made a mistake or two, it wasn't anything she couldn't handle! Sadly however that confidence disappeared when she heard two very familiar voices happily greet her at the same time.
"GOOD MORNING SUNSET!!" The two voices sang as Sunset let out a rather loud gulp before pausing and closing her locker. Looking to both her left and right seeing that Trixie and wallflower were indeed the ones that had come to greet her.
"G-good morning girls!" Sunset nervously smiled. "H-how are you?" She awkwardly added hoping that neither would notice how her forehead had started to sweat.
"Oh i'm great! More then great!" Trixie sang giving Sunset a seductive look.
"Oh, and ah..i'm good too." Wallflower replied with a blush.
"Great, Great, glad to hear it, well I guess i better get to class" Sunset nervously chuckled as she slowly backed away from the two.
"Wait, Sunset" Wallflower meeped.
"Ahh..Yea?" Sunset nervously gulped.
"I-I was wondering if we were still on for our date on Friday?" Wallflower asked with a blush.
"Oh yea, o-of course, I mean why wouldn't we be!?" Sunset nervously fumbled her words.
"Oh Good!" Wallflower happily smiled "Well i'll see you at lunch"
"Yea, see you at lunch" Trixie added, a bit of venom in her tone.
Sunset just gulped. "I-I am so bucking screwed!" She whined as she headed to class, her head hung low in defeat.
As the Lunchbell rang Sunset anxiously arrived at the Cafeteria, despite the usual ubeat nature of her fellow students Sunset still had a biting anxiety that just wouldn't leave her be. Thankfully as soon as she saw her friends she felt the nervous tension ease-up a bit.
"Hey girls" Sunset casually greeted her friends as she set down and ploped her tray down on the table in front of her. The girls giving their greetings back as they continued to chatter and eat their lunch. Sunset let out a sigh of relief, maybe the rest of her day wouldn't be so tense after all.
"Hi, Sunset" the voices came from behind. Sunset looking back and seeing that once again Trixie and Wallflower had arrived at exactly the same time. If she didn't know any better she would think the fates were mocking her.
"Oh, hey gals" Sunset nervously chuckled as the two took their usual places on either side of her. "So, how are your days so far" She nervously asked.
"oh, pretty good actually, I actually had some classmates ask me about the Gardening Club, I-I think I might actually have gotten us a few more members" Wallflower smiled.
"That's great" Sunset smiled, happy to hear of her friends good fortune.
"Yes, yes flowers are wonderful" Trixie faux-praised "But Trixie is more excited about how she finally made an A in Mr. Cranky's Math Class!" The blue skinned girl boasted.
"Oh, you mean because Sunset helped you with your homework, right?" Fluttershy asked, surprising the rest of the group.
"WHAT!?" Sunset and Trixie shrieked wondering how Fluttershy was aware of their study session,
"Oh.oh my i'm sorry, was-was it supposed to be a secret?" Fluttershy stuttered.
"So, you were with Trixie last night?" Wallflower asked in a tone that made the suspicion in her voice quite evident.
"Well, ahh...yea" Sunset stuttered "But, like Fluttershy said she needed help with her math and..." Sunset began to sweat.
"How did you even know about that anyway? Are you spying on us!?" Trixie asked in a gruff tone.
"Oh, a oh no-no" Fluttershy meeped. "I-I just saw you talking to Sunset after school and when you two walked off together I guessed she was probably helping you with something and when you mentioned our math class right now I...I just put two and two together....sorry" Fluttershy gulped.
"It's OK Fluttershy" Sunset reassured her. "You're right. Trixie needed help with her math, but she didn't want anyone to know because.... well" Sunset paused.
"OH IS IT BECAUSE SHE WAS AFRAID RAINBOW DASH AND RARITY WOULD TEASE HER!?" Pinkie Pie excitedly interrupted.
"WHAT!?" Rainbow and Rarity exclaimed.
Applejack just chuckled "Well ta be honest you two can be pretty bad about that at times" The cowgirl said as she continued to laugh at her friends angry expressions.
"Oh I am so not!" Rainbow Dash rebutted. The rest of the group just staring at her. "OK, maybe I do tease people a bit too much...sometimes." Rainbow reluctantly stated "Besides I have a C in math myself, so hey i'm not one to judge" The athletic girl admitted.
"humph, well just because I've made at least a B+ in every math class since first grade doesn't mean I would be so uncouth as to tease someone about it." Rarity huffed.
"See Trixie you have nothing to worry about. We're all your friends now too. If you ever need help with anything don't be afraid to ask" Twilight smiled as she adjusted her glasses.
"Oh, a-OK" Trixie embarrassingly blushed.
Meanwhile Wallflower was still just staring at Sunset not quite certain she believed her girlfriend was telling them everything.
3 days later.....
Man, I am sooo glad it's Friday!" Sunset happily exclaimed as she stretched out her arms. "So, you ready for our date tonight?" Sunset asked wallflower as she playfully punched her arm and gave her a wink.
"Oh, ah-yea, I guess" Wallflower replied in a somewhat half hearted manner.
"Hey, i-is everything OK babe? You've been acting a bit down today?" Sunset asked her girlfriend in concern.
"Oh, ah-yea" Wallflower rasped in reassurance. "It's-it's just been a long week yea know" She finished.
"heh, I hear that" Sunset chuckled. "So, i'll see you at the mall tonight at 6:30, we'll grab a bite and then see whatever movie you want, OK!" Sunset smiled. "And then maybe afterwards, we'll have a little...dessert." Sunset playfully cooed as she positioned her fingers under Wallflowers chin and playfully licked her lips.
"Ah...y..yea" Wallflower nervously blushed with A gulp. "W-Well I better go check on the garden real quick, b-but i'll see you tonight." Wallflower stuttered.
"OK Sweetie, see you then" Sunset smiled as she waved watching Wallflower walk towards the wooed area behind the school.
"he, well guess I really was worried for nothing" Sunset thought to herself. Meanwhile however Wallflower watched Sunset walk off from the woods and when the girl was out of sight she made her way back to the school. There was a certain wanna-be magician she knew would be in the gym right about now that she felt she needed to have a few words with.
Author's Note
Welp, something tells me Sunset might not get that relaxing first date she wanted after all.
What will happen, how will Trixie and Wallflower's conversation play out? Will we even see it.
And most importantly, who if either will Sunset choose!?
All this and more in future chapters! Thanks for reading and as per usual will try to go back and fix errors as I am able.
A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 10: Confrontations
"Stop squirming!" Trixie huffed as Snails wiggled inside the long rectangular box.
"B-but I don't want to be cut in half!" Snails whinned.
"I told you, it's just a magic trick!" Trixie angrily growled. "No one is actually getting cut in half!" Trixie attempted to explain to her dunderheaded accomplice. "Besides you and Snips promised to help me practice my magic this week, so if you had any misgivings you should have spoken up sooner!" Trixie exclaimed as she began to cut the box in half once more.
"Goodbye old buddy. I'll tell yer folks you died honorably" Snips teased as Snails continued to whine, Trixie just rolling her eyes. All of A sudden however the doors swung open and the three instantly looked back at the entrance as they heard them slam against the wall.
"TRIXIE! WE NEED TO TALK!" Wallflower yelled, her voice echoing through the gym.
"Ugg. What do you want!?" Trixie angrily inquired. "Can't you see I'm practicing my act here!?" She stated pointing to the half cut box with a shaking snails inside.
Wallflower seemed to ignore Trixie however as she continued to walk toward the stage until she was just mere feet away from Trixie.
"Tell me" Wallflower growled.
"Tell you what?" Trixie slyly cooed.
"Tell me what really happened between you and Sunset the other night?" Wallflower growled, her teeth now gritted her hand in a fist.
Trixie just retained her sly smile and laughed. "Well.....what do you think happened?'
Sunset shuffled through her closet, it had been ages since she'd been on a date and she had to admit she was a bit nervous. Finally she decided on one of her old favorites. She picked out the Aquamarine dress and matching blue pants, got out the short black leather jacket and high heeled boots. Something cute, but also casual. I mean she had worn it during the Friendship Games so why not now? Though Rarity would probably scold her for wearing something out of season, she thought to herself as she chuckled.
"Tonight is going to be perfect!" She smiled as she headed towards the bathroom to finish getting ready.
"You did what!?" Wallflower growled.
"You heard me!" Trixie mocked.
"I dare you to say that again!" Wallflower threatened, her first up and shaking.
"I FUCKED YOUR GIRLFRIEND!!" Trixie cackled at the top of her lungs.
"Ghuaa, YOU BITCH!!" Wallflower screeched as she lunged towards Trixie. Snails still trapped in his box silent and wide-eyed as he watched his friend get attacked. "L-lets Get outta here!" Snips panicked as he began to cart snails away, magic box and all.
"You Bitch!" Wallflower wailed. "How could you!?" She shrieked as she punched Trixie over and over the light-blue girl laughing the whole time.
"I should kill you....I should..." Wallflower paused as she began to sob, backing off of Trixie and bringing her hands towards her eyes. "Why?" She asked her voice nearly breaking. "Why?"
"Because" Trixie wheezed as she set up, her left cheek quite bruised and right eye notably blackened. "Because I wanted her just like you did." Trixie explained. "I knew it was wrong, but I did it anyway because I'm only human...I make mistakes...and...and." Trixie gulped as she too began to sob. "I.....I was just...so jealous, jealous that you were winning" Trixie finally admitted. Wallflower looked up surprised by this admission, but before either could say anything else they heard the gym doors swing open and to their surprise saw Rainbow Dash at the entrance. The cyan athlete rather shocked by the sight before her. On one side of the stage Trixie, quite obviously beaten and bruised and then there was also Wallflower also sobbing, her knuckles scraped and a bit bloody. Rainbow had been in her fair share of scuffs before and it was quite obvious as to who had thrown the punches in this one.
"WHAT THE FUCK!?" Rainbow Dash yelled as she ran up on the stage and in front of Trixie. "What the hell is wrong with you!?" She growled, glaring at Wallflower as she took a defensive pose in front of Trixie.
"I...I..." Wallflower began to stutter.
"Save it. I don't want to hear it!" Rainbow cut her off. "Trixie. You OK?" Rainbow asked looking back at the blacked-eyed girl.
"Y-yea" Trixie awkwardly stuttered just as confused by the situation as Wallflower.
"Good" Rainbow Dash smiled before turning her attention back to Wallflower. "I don't know what this is about, but you beat up one of my friends and I don't take kindly to that" Rainbow scolded.
"I...no, i... she" Wallflower attempted to explain but only fumbled her words.
"You're lucky that yer Sunset's Girlfriend or I'd kick your ass in 10 seconds flat." Rainbow stated in a deadly serious tone. "Now get out of my sight and pray I don't see you again till next Monday!" Rainbow exclaimed as she gave Wallflower a cold dead stare.
Wallflower just slowly got up and backed away and down off the stage before turning around to run out the door, tears once again forming under her eyes as she ran.
After Wallflower left the room Rainbow turned back towards Trixie to help the girl up. Trixie just looked up at her savior and was in awe. With a slight blush Trixie took Rainbow's hand and let the athletic teen help her back up. "T-thank you!" Trixie stuttered.
"Heh, think nothing of it. It's just what friends do, right!?" Rainbow cockily smiled giving Trixie a thumbs up.
"Oh. Ah...yeah" Trixie replied in agreement. "B-but what were you doing here anyway?" She asked curiously.
"Eh. Left my favorite Soccer Ball in my locker and came back to get it" Rainbow awkwardly admitted. "Then I saw Snips and Snails running down the hall and figured that something must be up." She explained. "So, what was all of that about anyway? Didn't know Wallflower had it in her to punch someone!" Rainbow chuckled.
Trixie just shook in place. "Um....well"
Back in the woods Wallflower set in her garden and wept. "Lies. It was all lies!!" She growled as she dug her hands into the dirt below. "After everything and she still did that...with her!!" Wallflower growled even deeper.
"She's evil....she's rotton....I...I hate her!!" Wallflower sobbed as she picked up a spade and screamed at the top of her lungs as she struck a nearby rock. "SUNSET SHIMMER IS STILL THE BIGGEST MEANIE!!" Her voice echoed as the rock split in half. The spade lodged in the middle, Wallflower staring, her eyes red and filled with rage. Every fiber of her being screaming out for revenge. Meanwhile Sunset was happily headed to the mall blissfully unaware of what had just transpired.
Author's Note
Well....that was intense! Next time Wallflower goes nuclear and Trixie confesses. Can Sunset calm the seeds of anger or will she be cut by the flowers thorns!? Find out next time. Same horse time, same horse channel!
A Garden Is A Tricky Thing To Grow
Chapter 11: Confrontation II
"You did what!?" Rainbow Dash yelled at Trixie.
"I, I may have told Wallflower that I had sex with Sunset" Trixie blushed.
"And why would you tell her something like that knowing it would upset her!?" Rainbow Huffed looking at Trixie Quite seriously.
"Well, because...it might, maybe, kind of be a teensy weensy bit....True." Trixie nervously gulped.
Rainbow Dash just looked at Trixie in disbelief. She then closed her eyes and let out a deep sigh at she rubbed the temples of her forehead. "I really should have just let her kill you" Rainbow Huffed.
"Ugh, how rude!" Trixie whinned.
"OK, fine whatever I'll deal with you later. We need to get to the mall before Wallflower." Rainbow Dash exclaimed as she jumped off the stage and ran out the door.
"W-Wait for me! Trixie huffed as she tripped over a loose board on the stage.
Meanwhile at the mall Sunset Shimmer waited anxiously in front of the theater as she looked nervously at her phone. "C'mon Sunset, you can do this, everything will be fine, you'll see! She attempted to re-assure herself. "You and Wallflower are going to have a great date! Just you wait, you'll sweep her off her feet and....." but before Sunset could finish a rainbow colored blue sped by before turning back around and stopping in front of the fiery girl.
"S-sunset" Rainbow Dash wheezed as she caught her breath "r-ran all the way from sch-school, to,to-tell you" Dash wheezed.
Sunset just looked at Rainbow rather annoyed & confused. "Dash, I'm sure whatever it is can wait." Sunset scolded. "Wallflower is going go be here any minute now and I need this evening to go off without a hitch!" Sunset exclaimed. "So can't you go bug somebody else. "I mean I'm sure Fluttershy would love some help keeping Zephyr in line." Sunset teased her friend. Before either could reply however they heard what sounded like an angry growl calling Sunset's name.
"YOU BIG MEANIE!!" The voice screamed once more as Sunset and Rainbow looked over to see Wallflower Blush, her cloths dirty, her aura one of pure rage and a spade grasped tightly in her hand.
"Wallflower, what-what in the world's going on!?" Sunset asked rather shocked by her friend's appearance.
"IT WAS ALL A LIE! WASN'T IT!?" She shrieked again as other peatrons at the mall began to look their way curious as to what all the commotion was about.
"W-what are you talking about!? " Sunset asked the enraged Wallflower, now even more confused by the events unfolding around her.
"I KNOW WHAT YOU DID!!" Wallflower shrieked.
All of a sudden it hit Sunset like a wave as she realized what Wallflower meant.
"No" Sunset whispered to herself.
"Wallflower, honey, listen, I can explain" Sunset pleaded as the angry Wallflower stomped closer.
"I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT!" She growled as she finished her approach, now only a mere six feet away from Sunset. "I trusted you, I thought you were my friend. That, that you loved me!" Wallflower angrily sobbed.
"Wallflower honey, I do. J-just calm down and listen, we can talk this out, we can" Sunset attempted to plead.
"No, no it's too late for talk!' Wallflower growled as she gripped the spade tighter and brought it up to her face. With that she lunged forward as she screamed "NO MORE MEANIES!!"
For A split second time seemed to stand still as Sunset couldn't believe what was happening, her friend, her date, attacking her! She did her best to brace for impact. She waited to feel the dirty spade strike her, but....it didn't.
Sunset let down her guard and opened her eyes to see the remnants of a poof of smoke and one Trixie Lulamoon standing between her and Wallflower.
"GET OUT OF MY WAY!!" Wallflower screeched, the sight of Trixie causing Wallflower to go into a completly feral state.
"No." Trixie replied as she pulled the spade out of her Cape and threw it back towards Wallflower who caught it with surprisingly fast reflexes.
"T-Trixie!?" Sunset and Dash exclaimed in disbelief.
"The one and only!" The illusionist smirked before turning her attention back to Wallflower.
"Listen, your beef is with me, not her. Now do whatever you wish to me, but leave Sunset out of this!" Trixie stated in a serious tone. "Come at me with all you've got. Don't hold back!" Trixie dared "I won't fight back, I'll accept my punishment...just....please....don't hurt Sunset." Trixie began to sob as Wallflower ran towards here.
Trixie closed her eyes and braced for impact....but nothing. She looked up and saw that Wallflower had stopped withing a mere centimeter of her. The spade right against her neck. Trixie gulped as Wallflower began to sob and dropped the gardening tool. "Why-why wasn't I good enough for you?" Wallflower cried looking past Trixie and right at Sunset.
Sunset whinned as the remark cut through her very soul.
"You got it all wrong Wallflower" Sunset sorrowfully chuckled. "You're the one who's too good for me." Sunset sighed. "What I did to you and Trixie, it was wrong. I'm the worthless one, not you." Sunset teared up.
"Hey now, you know that's not true!" Rainbow interjected. Sunset giving her an angry look. "I-i'll just be...over there" Rainbow nervously gulped as she sped off.
"I'm no good at this" Sunset sighed. "I mean I've grown so much, learned so much in such a short time with my friends. But I still manage to hurt people sometimes, and I'm sorry" Sunset admitted. "Sleeping with Trixie when I said I'd date you was wrong" Sunset admitted. "I guess I'm still not mature for a romantic relationship yet." Sunset admitted. "I can't make up for what I did or how I hurt you. But if you give me a chance I promise I will do everything I can to prove I'm worthy of being your friend. So whadda ya say?" Sunset nervously asked looking over at Wallflower and Trixie. The too girls were speechless for a good long while before a devious look formed over Trixies face and one of intense compilation did the same one Wallflower's.
One week later.
"Oh maid, could you bring us another lemonade please!?" A shrill voice demanded. As she set relaxing by the pool.
"Y-yea, me too" another more timid voice chimed in.
"Yes mistresses" Sunset angrily huffed as she tried to pull down the back of the ridiculously risque maid outfit Trixie had forced her to wear. Though her black fire print panties were still partially exposed.
"So, if'n Ahm getting all this straight Sunset did dirty by her new friends and now to make up fer it she agreed to do whatever they asked fer an entire month!?" Applejack inquired looking over at Dash who was beside her & Rarity in the pool.
"Yea, pretty much" Dash chuckled.
"Well after hearing everything that she did I don't blame them, and I did get some nice work out of it" Rarity snickered looking at her work. "You know Applejack dear, I bet you'd look great in one of my runtime outfits as well she flirtily teased.
"Ahh, this is the life, isn't it dear Wallflower" Trixie happily sighed as she held up her glass. "Indeed" Wallflower chuckled in agreement as the two bumped their glasses of Lemonade together.
"Out of all the punishments did they really have to pick something so embarrassing!" Sunset internally sobbed as she continued to pamper the two girls. It was going to be a long month!
