She was dancing among the waterfall, controlling the water and moving it around gracefully. Ever since Celestia had brought her as her personal and faithful student, she's been practicing magic for a while. Many ponies also claim that her level of magic surpasses even that of a royal guard, which she believes is just mere exaggeration. Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard a loud splash

"AH! I-IS SOMEPONY THERE?!" She shouted out into the darkness

She waiting for a response, but nopony was there. Maybe it was just a fish or a rock that fell into the water, Yeah that's it. She sighed knowing that her mind was just playing tricks on her

"I better head back to the dorm, Lyra and Vinyl are probably worried about me..." She said as she used a teleportation spell to leave

Suddenly, the lavender mare woke up. It was morning and the sunlight had attacked her face, she sighed as she shielded her eyes from the harmful rays. She had the dream again of her in a waterfall and a splash, she had no idea of what could it mean. It really bother it that she'll never figure this out, just like Pinkie Pie's Pinkie Sense did. She sighed once again and climbed out of bed. After that she did her daily routines around the house, take a shower, eat breakfast, read a book and run some errands with Spike.

The next thing she had to do was chores around the house with Spike and then hang out with her friends. While doing this there was one stallion on her mind: Comet Tail. The stallion she had met during Applejack's speech, she stood next to him while watching her friend. He was an interesting pony in her eyes, how he loves astronomy as much as her and how smart he really is. He was everything that a bookworm mare wanted in a stallion.

"Oh Comet...."She muttered with a blush on her face.

Truth is, she has a crush on him. A HUGE crush, however, as smart as Comet is. He does not notice it at all, even with all the blushing she does.

"Why Comet?....why must you be dense about my feelings......" She said to herself. Before she knew it, all of the chores were done. Later, she was just reading a book until she heard a knock on the door. That had to be her friends, when she answered the door, she was right.

"Ah, Howdy Twi, Yall ready fer our special day together?" Asked Applejack.

"Of course, Come on Spike. Let's go" She called out. The baby dragon smiled and followed the mane six towards their usual picnic spot. Rarity used her magic to set up the blanket and her sofa since she refuse to lay around on the grass. Applejack pulled out the picnic basket that contain daisy sandwiches and apple treats. Pinkie Pie randomly pulled out an radio and started to play some music, while Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash just relaxed and enjoyed the music.

"Alright yall, have sum delicious daisy sandwiches and apple treats" Applejack called out.

The girls gotten their treats and sandwiches and begin to feast. After 10 minutes of eating their snacks, they begin to converse on little things such as how was their day, what did they do and what's new happening? The questions seem normal until Rarity brought up an uncomfortable subject: Stallions! Why did she had to bring this up now?! Just why?!

"So, Applejack deary. Is there any stallion that has caught your interest?" Asked Rarity with a wink.

"Beg yer pardon?" Asked the farm pony.

"What Stallion do you like?"

This put Applejack on the spot, there was nopony that came to her mind like that. She's usually focus on work, friends and family. She blushed and decide to tell a lie, even though she was bad at lying.

"Umm...ah....well..."

"Go on...speak up?"

She really wanted to say Caramel, but unfortunately he was taken by that prissy mare, Sassaflash. How she always thinks she is better than everypony else, She was worse than Trixie. She sighed and thought of the pony she hope to never say, Goldengrape.

"It's...uhh....G-Goldengrape...I like uh...Goldengrape" She lied.

Everypony was a bit shocked from this answer but decide not to ask why, well almost everypony.

"Really? Why?"

"Well...uhh...he's hardworkin and kind...and uh...cute?"

There was a moment of silence until Rarity called for Rainbow Dash and asked her the same question. As predicted, Rainbow Dash said that she isn't into the whole crush thing, though she was bright red. Fluttershy meeped and avoided the question, Pinkie Pie just shook her head and kept rambling about others things that were unrelated to the topic. Rarity smirked and looked towards Twilight.

"Twilight, Darling? Who are you crushing on?" She asked.

"Umm...Nopony!" She blushed.

Rarity knew her friend was lying and decide to press further, "Come on dear, don't be shy. Tell us"

Twilight blushed even more, she knew they would know eventually and she couldn't keep this secret from her best friends. She needed to tell them, she took and a deep breath and spoke in a fluttershy tone.

"comettail...."

"What was that Twilight?" Rarity said.

"Comm....tai......"

"Excuse me Twilight, but could speak up?...umm...if you would like to that is" Fluttershy asked.

Twilight couldn't take it anymore, her emotions were about to explode, She then yelled where almost everypony could hear her.

"COMET TAIL! COMET TAIL!! I LIKE COMET TAIL OKAY!!!" She yelled.

All of her friends were shocked from her outburst and the name she called out. Rainbow Dash, however was shocked the most since she knew Comet Tail since foalhood.

"You mean that super awesome unicorn?! Way to go Twilight!" She cheered with excitement.

"That Comet Tail does have a good heart"  Applejack commented.

"I know, and he was the first unicorn to fl-...he's super awesome! Almost as awesome as me of course....almost" She commented as well.

"HeyTwilightWhydoyoulikeCometTail,isbecausehe'ssupercool,orsuperfunnyormaybebecausehelovespartiesjustlikeme becauseIlikepartiesand -"Her mouth was suddenly shut by Applejack's hoof.

"Sugarcube, just explain to us why ya like stallion" She smiled.

Twilight blushed and had a small smile as she begin to explain. Her heart was beating fast as she felt a bit hot in her face.

"Well...He's so nice and pure of heart, he always there for his friends and family. He always gives the bad second chances and believes nopony is evil at heart. He'll sacrifice anything to make anypony happy, It's like he's Equestria's guardian angel...and I have a crush on that angel. I know this sounds silly of me for saying this....but when I'm around him, I just know everything is going to be okay" She explained.

Rainbow Dash was making barfing noises while the rest of her friends just awed. Twilight was already too red in the face, she just confessed her feelings about Comet Tail to her friends. Boy, this is going to be a long picnic day.

~ Later that day.

Twilight and Spike trotted to their home when they spot a familiar white stallion standing at the door way with a smirk on his face.

"Oh my celestia.....Orion?!" Said a shocked Twilight

"Hello Twilight, It's been too long....." Greeted Orion.
