Gotha was her name. She was the most beautiful mare ever. Devin remembered the first time he saw her.

He was attending the Grand Galloping Gala one night. He had got an invitation from a friend, and he decided to attend. So he got dressed all nicely in his black tuxedo, and headed to Canterlot.

The party started off and they all had a blast. He had a chance to meet the Princesses, and try lots of different food and beverages.

Later that night, Dev was sitting by himself at a table, when he saw her...

His heart stopped.

She was beautiful. She had dark grey fur and a dark blue mane. Her face was that of an angel. She was an older mare as well. Devin guessed she was in her early 40s. Not that he minded. he liked the older mares. She was a lunar guard as well (he could tell by her armour)
Devin was blushing at her, admiring her looks and beauty, but she didn’t see him because she was a distance away.

“Go on Dev, talk to her.”

His friend Haze Northfleet said with a little smirk. Haze was his friend. They met on a mining base that he worked on a while ago. And they have been good friends ever since.

“I don’t know Haze.”

Devin said with a bit of nervousness in his voice
The light blue Pegasus mare looked at him.

“You can do it Dev. She is alone, so she might be single.”
she said encouragingly, with a little wink. Dev smiled at that, while boosted his confidence.

“Ok I will. Wish me luck.

“I will.” Haze replied with a friendly smile.

Dev walked over to were he saw her, but to his surprise, she was gone...

Dev looked around trying to find her, but during the time he was talking to Haze, she had seemingly left the party.

Dev sadly made his way to the bar table. He looked at his options, and he decided to get some Mango flavoured alcohol. He sat by himself, upset he couldn’t make a move on that beautiful mare he saw.

After the party ended, he flew with Haze to her place.

“Thanks for flying me home Dev.” Haze said to him as they landed at the door.

“You’re welcome Haze.” He replied, with a fake smile.

“hey Dev, I know it didn’t work out tonight, but you will probably see her again.”

“Yeah I know.” he replied. “Have a good night Haze.”

“You as well Dev.” Haze said, as she went inside.
