Love of a student

Chapter One - Life
It was an another peaceful night. Twilight looked out from her window. The moon was full and shed all of it's beautiful light on Equestria. Twilight loved the moon. It made everything feel so peaceful and romantic to her. She let out a peaceful sigh when she closed the window. She also loved the night. Unlike during day, at night everything seemed to be in a perfect harmony. She hummed a tune when she walked upstairs to her room. When she opened the door, she saw Spike lying in his bed. She kissed the baby dragon on the forehead and got on her bed. She closed her eyes and fell asleep smiling.
Next day she woke up as early as usual and walked to the bathroom. She tried not to wake Spike up. She walked to the shower and turned the tap. Warm water started to flow down her body. She felt so safe in the shower. It was a place, where she could feel warmness and it was the place, where she could think about things in peace. She finished showering herself and opened the shower door. When she walked she was surrounded by a steam cloud. She smelled the fresh air and walked to the front of the mirror. She dried her mane and started brushing it by her magic. She brushed it carefully and precisely. She wanted her mane to look exactly the same way like everyday. It was just her style.
When she had finished brushing her mane and drying herself, she walked downstairs. On her way down, she noticed a book on the table. She walked up to it and lifted it up with her magic. She started humming a harmonious tune. She set the book down on one bookshelf. Then she walked to the kitchen and started making herself a sandwich. It was easy for her, since she was a pretty good cook. Nopony knew that she was good at it, but it was actually one of her favorite hobbies. She knew really much about cooking. She took her sandwich and walked to the table. When she sat down, she noticed that the mail was lying on the floor. She levitated them to the table and started scanning though the correspondence. There were some commercials and new book orders. She placed the mail down and took a bite of her sandwich. Her mouth filled with tasty flavors. She loved to eat slowly and enjoy the food when she ate.
Soon she finished eating and cleaned the dishes, putting them into the washing machine and started it. After that, she walked to the exit door and unlocked it. She hung a sign on it that said “Open”. Then she returned inside and started looking for a good book to read. She soon found it and went to read it at the table. When she turned to he first page, somepony walked in. Twilight raised her head and looked at the pony, who just came in. It was Rainbow Dash. She seemed pretty exited, but Twilight didn't know why. Rainbow walked up to her with the biggest grin in the world. Twilight waited for Rainbow to tell her what was the reason of her happiness with no success. Rainbow just kept grinning. Twilight got bored of this game so she broke the awkward silence.
"Hello, Rainbow! What happened? What is all that grin about?" Twilight sighed and Rainbow kept smiling, but she managed to answer the question.
"Guess who has a coltfriend?" Rainbow asked and hopped. Twilight knew the obvious answer, but decided to tease her friend a little.
"Let me think. It could be Applejack. Yes. I remember that she was with Caramel." Rainbow gave Twilight an angry look.
"No you egghead! I, I have a coltfriend!" Rainbow said and puffed her chest, beating on it by her hoof.
Twilight gasped and hugged her friend. She looked Rainbow in the eyes. "Wow, didn’t expect that one coming! Is it Thunderlane?"
Rainbow made a confused face, looking away, “Y-yeah, how did you know?”
“I just guessed,” Twilight said with a happy face.
Rainbow broke the hug and she started leaving,"Bye Twi!" Rainbow waved as she left the Library. Twilight waved back to her. She returned to read her book. The book was about two ponies, who loved each other, but they didn't know each others feelings. The book was very interesting. This was the fifth time she was reading it. It was so full of everything she liked. Romance, adventure and tragedy. She loved the way the writer had made the story go. Through adventures and threats they found each other and lived happily ever after.
After a couple hours, Twilight decided to stop reading and she went to Sugarcube corner to buy some sweets. She promised Applejack that she would go eat with her, like friends do sometimes. She shut the book and levitated it back to the bookshelf. She took a few bits from her safe and put them in her saddlebag. She walked outside but immediately returned inside when she remembered that Spike was still sleeping. She went upstairs to her room and found the baby dragon sleeping in his box and sucking his thumb. When Twilight saw this, she didn’t want to wake Spike up, she just couldn’t, so she decided to leave a note to him. After she had written the note, she walked out.
It was a sunny day as usual. The sun warmed Twilights body nicely. She loved hot summer days. Everything was so colorful and bright. Everypony was laughing and having fun. Couples were at the park having picnics and fillies were playing in the schoolyard. All of this made Twilight happy. The gravel road was hot and it burned Twilights hoofs a little, so she decided to cut through the park. She turned to cross over the park and saw some butterflies following her. She looked at them and one of them landed on Twilights nose. Twilight smiled to it and kept going.
She arrived at the Sugarcube Corner. Lots of ponies were in there. It was always pretty crowded, but today it was a lot more than usually, mainly because it was such a beautiful day. She started looking around for Applejack, but she was nowhere to be seen. She heard a yell coming from her left. It was Applejack. Twilight walked through the crowd to Applejack, who was there with Pinkie.
"Howdy Twilight! Don't ya mind if Pinkie comes with us?" Applejack asked and Twilight watched the hopping pink mare on her side.
"Of course not. So, where should we go?" Twilight asked her friend, who tried to find a place, where they could talk.
"Let's go to this restaurant over there." Applejack pointed at a building and they walked in. They sat down on one of the tables and the waiter brought them three menus. They started scanning through them and after a couple of minutes Twilight found what she wanted. She closed the menus and saw that her friends were still reading them. She put the menu down on the table.
"Okay. I've decided. Have you found anything yet?" Twilight asked and smiled at her friends, who were struggling to find something to eat.
"It’s too much to choose from! How am ah supposed to find anything from these?" Applejack stated, frustrated. Twilight giggled a little.
"Well I'll take dandelion sandwich and hay fries." Twilight stated. Applejack gave up.
"I'll take the same." Applejack said and banged her head on the table.
"Me too. I just realized that I don't even know what half of these are!" Pinkie said happily and lowered the menu on the table.
The waiter came back to their table and took the orders. After a few moments, their food arrived. They started eating it and everyone enjoyed their meal.
Twilight broke the silence, "Well Applejack, how are things between you and Caramel?" Applejack immediately turned her head and smiled.
"We are as good as always. We are planning to go for a trip with him." Applejack stated happily what made Pinkie smile.
"Oh. Where are you planning to go?" Twilight asked interested.
"We were first thinking about going to Las Pegasus, but then we decided that if we go, we'll go to Manehattan." Pinkie finished her food in an instant.
They talked about Applejacks vacation plannings and Pinkies upcoming parties. Before they even noticed, they had eaten all of their food and they started leaving. They decided to go have some fun.
Twilight reached her house after a long walk. She was exhausted. It was about midnight when she got home. She walked up to her room and to the balcony. She found herself again, standing there, admiring the moon. It had become her routine. She loved to watch the moon and just think about stuff. Today she thought about Applejacks trip plans, Rainbow’s relationship with Thunderlane.
Pinkie found a colt what made her stunned. The day was perfect to the couples to have fun in the park. Then a thought struck her like a lightning. A thought she would never have a coltfriend, that nopony will never love her.
'Why doesn’t any colt like me? Why haven't I felt any love towards anypony?'. This thought made her go down to the library side and she started looking for a book. She tried to find a book that will explain her thoughts, but she couldn't find anything. She kept searching through the whole night.
At the morning she finally came back to reality, when she heard a voice. A friendly and calming voice. Scared, but still calming. Spike had awoken.
"Umm... Twilight? What is going on?" Spike asked the crazy looking unicorn. Twilight couldn't tell the truth.
"I was searching for a... umm... rat! Yes. A rat. I saw it when I... I... was going to bed." Twilight said and hoped that Spike would believe her. Happily for her, he did.
"Okay..."

Chapter Two - The One
Twilight searched a book, that would have the answers, for hours, but eventually she gave up. She sighed as she walked to lay down on her bed. She hugged the pillow and shed a tear. She couldn’t figure out why no one liked her. She stayed there for a moment, and then decided to go to take a shower. After that she went downstairs to put the books back to their places. She lifted all the books with her magic and started setting them to the right shelves. She went to look at herself in the mirror. ‘Don’t I look good? Am I ugly?’ She ran a hoof through her mane and shook it a little. She picked up a makeup pack. Just when she had opened it, somepony entered the library. Twilight quickly brushed her mane back to its normal shape and ran downstairs. There she found Rarity talking with Spike. They laughed when they saw Twilight coming down the stairs.
“Good morning Rarity! Why are you laughing?” Twilight asked confused. Rarity floated a brush, that was stuck on Twilights mane and showed it to her. Then she smiled.
“This was stuck in your mane.” She smiled gently and then continued. “Anyway, I came to look for the new “Sapphire Stones Spectacular Dress Album”. Do you have it?” She asked and started scanning the bookshelves for the album.
“No, I don’t have it yet. It should arrive at some time next week.” Twilight got an idea. “Umm... Rarity?” She asked nervous.
“Yes darling?” Rarity turned and looked Twilight in the eyes.
“Could you... Umm... Help me with something?” Twilight asked and started following Rarity outside.
“Of course. What would you want me to do?” Rarity asked as they continued walking.
“Thank you. I would like you to teach me, how to,” she paused, “um... “chat”... with colts.” Twilight asked and blushed slightly.
“Oh Twilight. You chose the perfect teacher!” Rarity started running towards her boutique so fast, that Twilight was barely keeping up after her.
As they arrived to the boutique, Rarity started searching for fabrics.
“What are you doing?” Twilight asked, tilting her head.
“Well, the first thing we have to do, is to modify your style a bit. You are going to look smashing!” Rarity said as she pulled all the stuff she needed from the drawers. She started pushing Twilight towards the dressing room.
“I am not so sure about this Rarity.” Twilight said, trying to stop her actions.
“Don’t you trust me?” Rarity asked offended.
“Of course” Twilight answered and let out a sigh. Rarity smiled and continued her way to the dressing room. Twilight sighed again as she started following the fashionista.
Twilight and Rarity spent the next hour making Twilight look more stylish. After many dresses, mane styles and Celestia knows what, Rarity was finally happy with her work. Twilight started walking towards the mirror, which hung on the wall. She was nervous about what kind of pony had Rarity made her look like. She walked to the front of the mirror and when she saw herself in the it, her jaw dropped like a pile of bricks.
“You don’t like it.” Rarity said and looked at the floor, but suddenly her vision was obscured by a lavender color. It was Twilight’s coat.
“I love it! Thank you so much!” Twilight shed a tear of happiness on her friends shoulder. Rarity smiled.
“No need to thank me, darling. But remember, we haven’t even started yet.” She said, already walking towards her room. Before Twilight started following, she went to look at herself in the mirror once more. She looked beautiful. Her joy couldn’t be expressed with words, so she just smiled.
“Are you coming?” Rarity asked her friend, who was still smiling in front of the mirror. Twilight turned and started walking towards Rarity.
They went to Rarity’s room, where Rarity taught her, how to talk, flirt and even date with colts. They had a lot of fun, but as always, the time comes, when the fun has to end, and you have to leave. Twilight started leaving, but she had to ask one more question.
“Umm... Rarity?”
“Yes darling?” She asked and smiled happily.
“Why aren’t you with anypony? You know, like dating?” Twilight asked and made Rarity laugh a little.
“Oh, Twilight. I am waiting for the right one. I don’t want to rush it. I want somepony, who is ready.” Rarity answered and Twilight gave her an okay as an answer. She waved to her friend as she started heading home.
On her way, she could do nothing else than think about tomorrow. She opened the library door and went to her room. She took a quick shower and then went to the balcony. Again, she sat on the railing and closed her eyes. ‘Tomorrow, I am going to find me The One and nopony will stop me. I can finally be loved.’ A smile grew on her face. She opened her eyes slowly, because she didn’t actually want to open them, but she knew she had to. When she had fully opened them, she looked at the moon for a few seconds and went back inside. She laid down on her bed and wrapped a blanket around her body. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
Next day Twilight woke up late on purpose because she wanted to look fresh when she’ll go to see the town colts. She went to take a long shower and spent an hour brushing her mane and putting her makeup on. She moved back to her room to put on the dress... or however was it called. She put it on and went back to the front of the mirror and gave herself a final look before leaving the library.
She left the library determined to find her a coltfriend. First she walked to the park, but strangely there were no stallions there, so she decided to go to the Sugarcube Corner. Sugarcube Corner was full of ponies. Twilight didn’t know why. It wasn’t even a sunny day like yesterday. She heard a lot of cheering, so she traveled through the crowd and saw what was the cause for all that cheering. When she saw it, she felt a weird warmth in her heart that she couldn’t explain. She tried to keep her eyes away from the amazing pony in the middle, but she just couldn’t.
It finally struck her like a lightning. It was that. It was THAT feeling. She just couldn’t do anything except run home and cry.
