She was nervous. And who wouldn't be when this is their first Hearth's Warming Eve in a very long time ago. Moondancer had to make sure everything was just as perfect. Especially when she had been the one suggesting this and also saying that she could handle it.

And, well, she wasn't completely wrong. She had lot of books about the best kind of decorations and cooking's. But when it came to actually making the preparations, she found out that it was much more harder than she had thought.

First she had to put the decorations around her house which thankfully isn't that hard when you are a unicorn. But then came cleaning and it proved bit more difficult. But she still handled it very well. But when it finally came to the cooking? Sweet Celestia she cried out few times. Even though she did follow the instructions, her cooking's didn't look like they were in the book.

Dear Celestia and Luna! I should have taken those cooking lessons back on my Second Year! Moondancer thought in panic, as she tried to make some date cake. Only to had it fall completely on her. “Aaah! This is a disaster!” Moondancer exclaimed.

But quickly tried to calm herself. Fear not Moondancer. You still have enough time. she reassured herself. I just need remake this one more time, and this time I will succeed! You hear me date cake! and Moondancer let out a maniacal laugh.

Only to be interrupted by knock on a door, followed by familiar giggling. “Hey Moondacer. You there?” the voice of Minuette, or Coldgate, called her.

And from there everything crashed.

Oh no! Nonononono! Half of the food isn't finished yet! And I still need to fix the table and OH Celestia! I forgot the candles! How could I have forgotten the candles!?

“Yeah, thought you might need some help.” Minuette said. Breaking Moondancer from her little breakdown. “And sorry for breaking in, but we thought you might have little trouble with something's.” Minuette giggled, quickly pointing behind her where also Lemon Hearts, Twinkleshine and her sister.

“Hope you don't mind?”

Moondancer let out amused sigh and then gave out a short laugh. Nodding her head. “Yes, I think I might need a little help.” she said. Feeling the previous pressure leaving.

But then a different kind of pressure took over her in the form of her sister and her very tight hug. “Fear not my little sister! For with our help, this shall be the most, best Hearth's Warming Eve ever!” she proclaimed as if she was addressing troops to the battle of their lives. “And by Celestia's name we will cook like nopony has ever cooked.”

“Uuum... sis?”

“And we shall clean that table that even Princess Luna would dare to lick it and declare the table itself, a delicacy!”

“I believe that is enough sis!” Moondancer said with a raised tone. “I think we got the general idea.” she said, teasingly. Which caused her sister to blush.

“Oh... eheheh. Yes... *ahem*! That is good my ponies.” she then coughed, giving out a sheepish expression. “So... I believe I could do the table, if that is fine with you Moonie?”

“Sure thing. And maybe Lemon Hearts here can give me some ideas on how to improve my cooking?”

“You don't have to ask me twice!” Lemon Hearts said jumping excitedly.

“Just make sure she doesn't eat too much!” Twinkleshine called. Earning a blush from Lemon Hearts, with a quick: “Hey!”

Everypony then laughed, and Moondacer felt that this could be a very good Hearth's Warming Eve. And she could improve the next one as well.
