Rainbow and Scootaloo landed outside the kitchen and peeked into the kitchen window expecting to see Twilight huffing in frustration, Scootaloo perched herself on Rainbow’s foreleg to see in, holding onto the sill for balance. Instead, Twilight had cleaned the mess and was sitting at the table across from an orange unicorn stallion drinking juice.

“Rainbow,” Scootaloo whispered, “who’s that guy?”

“I think it’s her new stud… I mean date,” she stumbled.

“Stud, like they do it?”

“Well, yeah. But they aren’t gonna have foals yet, so we have time to find out about him.”

“You mean she’s never gone into estrus?” Scootaloo said peering into the window.

“What?” Rainbow asked, glancing over the filly beside her, “how do you know about that stuff?”

Scootaloo looked at Rainbow flatly. “We learned this stuff last year after the whole hearts and hooves day thing where we, um,” she looked down and cleared her throat.

“Yeah, everypony knows about that. At least you learned a lesson.”

“Yeah, don’t make love magic,” she smirked as she fluttered her wings, catching herself from losing balance.

When they looked back in they screamed in surprise as Twilight’s face was nearly pressed against the glass smiling at them.

Rainbow lowered to a reasonable height and placed a hoof to her chest and took in a couple deep breaths while Scootaloo sat up and dusted dirt from her coat.

“C’mon in, mares! I wanna introduce you to my new coltfriend!”

“...” The pegasi looked at each other then back to Twilight.

“Twilight,” Scootaloo said, “are you sure he’s okay? We don’t know anything about him.”

“He could be dangerous,” Rainbow added.

“Or," Twilight said, poking her head out of the now open window, “he could be the best thing to ever happen to me; even Princess Celestia is thanking herself for me finding somepony.”

“Whatever, let’s just meet this guy,” Rainbow said as she landed and let Scootaloo hop onto her back, “then we’re outta here. I have a stunt to show Scoots here.”

“Okay, I’ll meet you at the front door in five and a half seconds,” Twilight giggled as she pulled her head in, letting the window fall shut.

“Okay,” Rainbow said as she hovered with Scootaloo holding onto her neck, “where’s this guy.”

“Right here and pleased to meet you,” a younger voice came from the doorway.

“So,” Scootaloo chirped as she hopped to the floor and narrowed her eyes at him, “you’re that Sunny D guy?”

Rainbow snorted and laughed.

Twilight inhaled sharply and began to blush.

Sun Struck grinned.

“So, Sunny D? That’s what you call me behind my back? Not too bad, Twi-pie.”

Twilight looked at him and blinked. “Y-you said you’d never say that aloud.”

Scootaloo looked between the adults with a confused smile. “What’s so funny?”

“Nothing you need to worry about, Scoots,” Rainbow said wiping a happy tear from her eye, “it’s nice to meet you, Mister D,” Rainbow said bursting into laughter, falling to the floor.

“Yeah,” Scootaloo said smiling at Rainbow. She extended a hoof to him. “Nice to meet you Mister D.”

At a loss with Scootaloo’s innocence the rest of the adults broke down into laughter.

…

“Oh, oh my. That was the best,” Sun said after they’d recovered, “I can’t believe that this’ your best friend and her little sister.”

“Actually, she’s not my sister,” Rainbow started.

“I’m almost her daughter! Isn’t that right, Rainbow Dash? It’s so awesome! And she’ll be better than my real moms.”

“Right on, Sport.”

“Well,” Twilight interjected, “I’m glad we’re off to such a great start, but Scootaloo, his name is Sun Struck.”

“But why’d you tell Rainbow you love his ‘D’?”

Happy Birthday Sun Struck.
