The Lady and The Street Rat

As night falls Twilight Sparkle couldn't sleep. Its not about Pinkie's snoring, not Rainbow Dash's sleep talking, it's that she remembered what Sunset had said. She said that she use to believe in magic but she didn't continue why, must be because it was a sensitive and personal issue she rather keep it to herself.

She sat up sighing quietly still thinking what could be the reason, then she startled a little when she saw a pebble hitting the window of the bedroom. She was about to get up but then she saw the person making her heart beat so fast, it was her friend Sunset waving at her. She was wearing a different hoodie. The street rat was about to open the window but Twilight got up quickly and opened it herself so her friend wouldn't wake everyone.

"What are you doing here?!"

"I couldn't sleep and my street rat senses tells me that you couldn't either which makes us even". Sunset said with a smirk on her face.

"Street rat senses?"

"I was thinking that we should hang out and eat on a restaurant to kill the time, I know a place that we both will enjoy plus the owner knows me so that makes our meal free".

"I'm still in my pajamas, it will be so embarrassing if we went to an Italian restaurant wearing this"

"The owner didn't care if I wear pajamas to eat at his restaurant as long as I'm happy, just put on the hoodie that I gave you then we can go"

"I-I don't know Sunset.... only fast food restaurants are open".

"If we make it there early then it won't close, come on princess trust me". Sunset held out her hand hoping that the nerd would take it. Twilight Sparkle stared at her for a few seconds before she smile and took Sunset's hand. She wore the hoodie first then looked at Sunset's eyes feeling ready.

"Lead the way Light".

With that, Twilight climbed off the window and closes it behind her. She squeak when she was lifted off her feet by Sunset who was carrying her bridal style. Sunset jumped off the roof and lands perfectly on her feet, Twilight was a bit shaking not because she was afraid because it took her by surprise. The street rat puts the lady down and kneels which confused Twilight.

"Hop on my back princess". Sunset said.

"It-Its fine Sunset I can just walk with you". Twilight said.

"And let you get tired? That's a big no for me your highness, I won't let a lady walk at this time of day". Twilight knew she couldn't win in Sunset's argument so she gives in and got on Sunset's back. Sunset stood up and held Twilight's legs smiling.

"Hold tight back here princess, things might get bumpy for you". Sunset started to run which made Twilight giggle and enjoy the wind blowing her hair.

"This... is fun!". Twilight yelled but she blush in embarrassment when she heard one of the neighbors told her to shut up which made Sunset laugh.

"You're waking up the neighbors princess". Sunset said and earned a playful slap on the head.

"Says the one who threw pebbles on someone's window". Twilight said.

"It adds a romantic touch didn't it?". Sunset asked as she starts to walk and look around to see that they were a few people who were awake at this time.

"You have a point there". Twilight replied as she played with Sunset's short hair which it feels so fluffy.

"Princess! I just brush my hair so that I would look presentable to you". Sunset giggled.

"Your already beautiful". Twilight said.

"Aw shucks princess". Sunset blushed and Twilight squealed in happiness as she could tell she made her friend blush.

"I finally made you blush!"

"And it will be the last time you did". Sunset said and turns left.

"Why are we going there?"

"I have my own private spot". Sunset puts Twilight down and looks at her.

"Wait here your highness". Twilight nods her head. Sunset walked on the backdoor and knocks a little loud. A few seconds later she heard the door opened and she was excited. The door opened to reveal the owner of the restaurant and was happy to see an old friend.

"Well what have we here, it's Shimmy!" He happily hugged Sunset which she laugh and return the hug before they broke off.

"It's been a while Tony". Sunset said.

"Hey Adagio, an old friend came to visit us!" Another person revealed to be Adagio, well the human Adagio. She smiled in happiness to see her best friend visiting again.

"How's life treating you Red?" Adagio asked as they did their signature handshake.

"Pretty good actually". Sunset looked like she wanted to tell them the news but tried to keep it in.

"I'm going inside to give you the usual". Adagio went inside and Sunset looked at Tony.

"I'm not alone actually". Sunset went behind the boxes and took Twilight's hand, both of them revealed themselves and Tony seems happy.

"I see you you brought here your first girlfriend! I'll set up your table". Tony went inside and Sunset looked at Twilight who seems confuse.

"I'm not your girlfriend though".

I wish I was

"You know Tony, just teasing me as usual". Sunset nervously said.

"If you say so". Twilight said.

Tony came back and puts down the table and two chairs. He puts a romantic clothe on the table, a candle, two glasses of water, and a basket of bread as an appetizer. Adagio came back with Sun chips, Sunset's favorite snack.

"Here's some Sun chips". Adagio said.

"Ah yes Sun chips.... Sun chips?!" Tony grabbed the snack and threw it on the side glaring at Adagio.

"What's the matter with you?! Shimmy here brought her girlfriend which means we have to prepare a romantic dish for them to enjoy". Tony said.

"I didn't even know she had a girlfriend jeez, I'll bring out the menu". Adagio said.

"Don't worry I brought it here with me". Tony puts down the menu and the lady and the street rat looks at it for a while and had finally decided what to eat.

"Spaghetti and meatballs Tony". Sunset said.

"You got it, Adagio they want the spaghetti and meatballs!" Tony said as both of them entered the kitchen to prepare.

"This might take a while". Sunset said and was shock to see Twilight holding out a piece of bread to her finger indicating that she wanted to feed her friend.

"Say ah". Sunset blushed and obeyed Twilight's command, Twilight puts the piece on Sunset's mouth and watched as the street rat started to chew.

"I'm a bad influence to you princess". Sunset chuckled.

"Indeed you are". Twilight smiled.

A few minutes later Tony came back with the dish they had ordered and puts it on the table and boy it smelled really good and it looks well cooked.

"Here you go, Spaghetti especial just for you two love birds". Adagio came back with a guitar on her hand and started playing a romantic song as Sunset and Twilight started to eat.

The street rat watched Tony and Adagio singing which was music to her ears, well second pick because Twilight's voice is number one. As they were eating, none of them realize that they both had the same strand of noodle which made their lips pressed to each other. Twilight pulled back and looks away smiling and blushing while Sunset smiled and gave her the last meatball. They both looked at each other again and slowly leaned forward, but this happened.

"Well we're about to close up now Shimmy". Tony said as he starts cleaning up. Sunset and Twilight fixed their posture and smiled nervously.

"Uh yes okay, we're leaving now". Sunset gave Twilight a piggy back ride and went home after saying goodbye to Adagio and Tony.

Few minutes later, both of them climb on Pinkie's roof because her room was on the second floor. Sunset opened the window and Twilight quietly went inside, both of them looked at each other one last time with a smile and blush on their faces.

"Thank you Light".

"Told you we will have a free meal, now go to sleep princess. I can tell your sleepy when you yawned a couple of times".

Sunset was about to close the window but Twilight stopped her. The street rat gave her a confuse look but her face turned red like the color of her hair when Twilight pressed her lips on the street rat's cheek. Twilight giggle quietly and closed the window, Sunset left the house happily dancing on her way home.

"So..." Twilight jolted in surprise when the light opened to reveal her friends smirking.

"Did you have fun?" Rarity asked.
