A Sunlight Story
Chapter 6: The Talk
Previous Chapter Next Chapter-Narrative-
It’s been a few days since the first day of Twilight’s teachings. Both Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle was enjoying each other’s company. The two mares were fighting off their minds. They seemed to be dealing with it pretty well and all of their friends knew they had a thing for one another. They made it obvious to their friends but Sunset and Twilight are completely unaware of their situation. This puts their friends to assist their relationship to become more than just Teacher and Student.
The Mane 6, Sunset and Spike were on a nice picnic in Ponyville Park.
Twilight’s POV
Just watching Sunset enjoy herself and eat away makes me feel all fluttery. I can’t help but stare at her. She’s beautiful all-around; her mane, her personality, and her body. I can’t fight these feelings any longer. I must have her even if she doesn’t like me back I must at least get a response from her. If she loves me I do to her then it will be perfect but if not at least I had a small chance.
Spike seems to know a lot about relationships so I might ask him how to go about it. I just need to get him alone. Oh wait! I can just ask him for a small talk in private. I tap on his shoulder to gain his attention. “Spike may I speak to you in private?” He doesn’t fight with me as he gets up and travels to a more secluded location. He stops once we’re a good distance away from the girls.

“Twilight, if this is about what I did last night in my defense, you should’ve hid those pictures better.” Spike said waiting for her to lecture him on what happened.
“That’s… not …. Wait! What did you do last night?” Twilight questioned spike now suspicious on what happened.
“Nothing… Nothing, now what was it that you wanted?” Twilight looked at him as if to make him confess but she dismissed it. What she wanted to ask him was far more important.
“I admit to loving Sunset.”
“No surprise there Twilight you and her give it away openly” Spike said making her confession less dense.
“So can you help me get her? I wanted to admit my feelings to her on Hearts and Hooves Day.” Twilight was more or less determined to win Sunset Shimmer over. Hopefully Spike can provide some insight on how to go by it.
“Well, to win Sunset you need to know her. I don’t mean ask her about her day and stuff like that I mean you need to know what she likes to do and what’s her favorite hobbies and what she hates. Most importantly on what she hates because then you will know what not to do around her. Also you will need to present yourself.” This made Twilight blush mad. Spike narrowed his eyes in seriousness, “Not present yourself like that I mean ‘present’ yourself like act seductive around her or make yourself shine above everyone else.” This make Twilight slap herself for thinking wrong.
“Okay, okay how do I act ‘seductive’ around her or even know what she likes or dislikes?” Spike went silent for a minute then spoke.
“You can always make her write about her favorite hobbies and interests, also make her put in what she dislikes in activates.” Twilight stared down at Spike who was unfazed by her gaze.
“I’m not going to force her to write me that. That is invasion of her privacy she’ll know something is up. I wanted to make it a surprise sort of.” This made Spike think for another minute.
“Then I’m shit out of luck Twilight. You will just have to wing it. (Get it?:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::pinkiehappy::pinkiesmile::twilightsmile:)” Hearing this made Twilight sad a little.
“Well thank you Spike for the advice I guess.” Twilight and Spike made their way back to the picnic. The girls all stared at her and spike as they sat down.
“So, what did you guys talk about?” Rarity asked hoping to gain some gossip.
“No, that conversation is strictly private.” Twilight said silencing any forward advancements with Rarity trying to get her to spill it out.
Sunset’s POV
Twilight is the most beautiful mare among all the ponies in Equestria. I can just kiss her and hold her tight. If I keep fighting these feelings I don’t know what my body will do it’s like the feelings are breaking me down bit by bit until I just surrender and accept it. But I do accept them I can no longer fight them, I yearn for her, I want to taste her. Wow! Sunset you’re getting a little too ahead of yourself there. Dial it back a bit.
I decided to ask Rarity if can speak to her alone I wanted to ask her what can I do on Hearts and Hooves Day to make Twilight mine.
“Rarity may I speak to you in private?” She retaliated back.
“For whatever for darling?” I motion her on to follow.
“This is a personal thing I need help with.” She put down her sandwich and followed me to a park bench nearby away from the rest of the girls.

As both Rarity and Sunset Shimmer sat down Rarity started off the conversation. “So, is this about the whole you loving Twilight thing?” This made Sunset shut her mouth quickly.
“How did you know?”
“Dear Sunset, you two make it very obvious. So do you want to know how to win her over?” Sunset nodded.
“I wanted to win her over on Hearts and Hooves Day. Can you give me some advice of how to play it off?” Sunset words were true. She loved the Princess dearly and couldn’t bare another minute without her.
“I see well that sounds like a perfect time to ask her are you planning on being straightforward or surprise her?” Sunset had to think for a second.
“I want to surprise her. She loves surprises.” Sunset’s voice trailed off just thinking of what surprises she can do to win her. This all but still seemed to arouse Sunset in some way.
“Okay darling, I can give some advice but I won’t help you through it all the way as confessing to something major like this to the pony you love is both emotional and spiritual. The words you must say have to come from your heart and nothing else. You must stay pure in order to win her heart.” Rarity stated as she stood back up.
Rarity faced Sunset who remained sitting down. “Twilight likes to read a lot she loves books all sorts so maybe get her a book. She also likes to go on adventures to be very open to long journeys. Also Twilight gets bored very easy if you talk about yourself all day long. So don’t just talk about yourself let her speak and voice her opinion.” Rarity stopped for a second. Sunset was absorbing all this information. “Also be sure that she’s not busy when hanging around her she doesn’t like to be bothered a lot when she has her royal duties. Remember this; she puts a lot of things before herself and her royal duties is one of them.” Sunset then stopped Rarity to allow her to talk.
“Okay I get all of that but one of her duties is to teach me in the magic of friendship. She also doesn’t do much of her royal duties as being a teacher is one of them. I don’t seem to be bugging her or boring her when I speak so we can rule that out. I can’t seem to find any books she likes since she owned most to all of the books known. Finally adventures, yesterday she took me to the castle of two sisters and I nearly died from the traps and obstruct frame of the castle alone.” Rarity listened word from word to what Sunset explained.
“Okay so then I can’t really assist you other than to let your heart speak for itself. Ever since Twilight became a Princess she spends less and less time with us as a result we don’t seem to know what her interest are anymore other then what we remember when she was a Unicorn. I’m very sorry I couldn’t be as much help as you wanted Sunset. I hope Hearts and Hooves Day goes well for you when you announce your feelings to her.” Rarity began to walk back to the picnic with sunset following suit.
Rarity’s advice didn’t help Sunset in her efforts to win over Twilight. As the two mares sit back down to enjoy the rest of the picnic the cold uncomfortable silence between Twilight and Sunset filled in between them. To both mares this Hearts and Hooves day might just be the most intense experience they will every encounter.
-Narrative-
The picnic went about the rest of day in short conversations and eating. The day ends with both Sunset and Twilight parting ways. To both parting ways is the saddest part of their day. They didn’t want to separate but they have to. They both awaited for Heart and Hooves Day to confess their love for one another.
