One day, Sapphire was at the College, going to her locker before going to her next class: Biology. She opened her locker and a heart shaped box fell out. "Huh? What's this?" Sapphire picked up the box. The box was red with a pink bow on it. She opened the box and found lots of tiny chocolates inside of it along with a note,

"You are the star that lights up my entire sky."

There was no signature on it but Sapphire was still curious. Recently, she's been receiving a lots of mysterious gifts. Love cards, letters stuffed bears and puppies and etc. She hasn't told her friends about it yet cause she thought it might have been a fluke the first time, but now she knew it wasn't. "Guess I should tell them at the end of the day." she decided.

Anyway, she gathered her things and went off to Biology.

When the school day was over, Sapphire asked her friends to come to her castle to discuss something. Sapphire invited Celesto, Celestia and Luna as well.

"So what did you want to talk about Sapphire?" Applejack asked.

"Well... I've been, um, receiving gifts this past week from someone." Sapphire said bashfully.

Rainbow was confused, "And what's wrong with a few gifts?" That's when Marla came in carrying all the gifts this person sent Sapphire, the pile was almost as tall as she was. "I wouldn't call this a few gifts." she retorted. Everyone was surprised.

"Woah... that's a lot of gifts." Pinkie said.

The girls picked up some of the gifts and read some of the notes.

"You are the most beautiful girl I've seen."

"You always light up my day."

"The sight of your eyes, make me want to cry."

The girls awww'd at the letters. "I know, they're nice but... umm... what exactly does this mean, really?" Sapphire asked.

"Did Mr. Grandruler and Principal Celestia explain it to you already?" Sunset asked.

"Explained what?" Sapphire asked bluntly.

A brief silence came.

"You know the whole dating episode?" Rainbow clued in but Sapphire tilted her head to the side, confused.

"You never told her?!" Rarity exclaimed dramatically.

"What? She's too innocent to learn about that yet." Celestia defended.

"Innocent to learn about what?" Sapphire asked innocently.

The gang all looked at her and sighed. Sunset sat down next to her, "Sapphire.."

"Yes?" Sapphire asked.

"Do you know what a boyfriend is?" Sunset asked gently.

"A boyfriend is a friend whose a boy."

"No... the other type of boyfriend."

"There's another type of boyfriend?"

Everyone facepalmed. This was going to be a long discussion. "Okay... Sapphire..." from there Sunset explained very delicately to Sapphire what a boyfriend was, using Fluttershy and Rhymey as an example. When the discussion was done, "So... I have a secret admirer? Someone likes me?" Sapphire asked.

"Yes and the remaining question is: Who is your secret admirer, darling?" Rarity asked.

"How will I know?" Sapphire questioned.

"Well, your secret admirer might show himself to you one day."

Sapphire nodded, "And then what do I do?"

"Well... you accept his love and you become girlfriend and boyfriend... with your parents permission." Rainbow added.

"Oh... okay." Sapphire replied.

A couple days later, Sapphire was walking through downtown by herself. She was looking up at the sky, at the birds flying through the sky blissfully. Suddenly, a bouquet of flowers came before her feet, surprising her. "Huh?" The bouquet was made up of roses, violets, daffodils and other pretty flowers. There was a small note attached to it. She read it,

"Meet in the garden behind the mansion.. now."

"Meet behind my dad's mansion?" Sapphire thought. "Wonder why?"

Nevertheless, she spread her wings and flew over to Celesto's mansion and landed in the large garden.

"Um.. hello?" she called. "Anyone here?"

She looked around and saw nothing nearby until she heard the bushes rustling nearby. She turned and saw something coming out of the bushes. That something was.... a wolf?

It was a rather large wolf, almost reaching her chest in upper chest in height. It had golden brown fur with white paws. The wolf approached her and stopped in front of her. "Umm... hello?"

The wolf closed his eyes, started to glow and right before Sapphire's eyes, they changed into a teenage boy. The boy was the same height as Rhymey and the other boys. The boy had short, golden brown hair. He was rather fit and handsome and he was wearing a white shirt, jeans and black sneakers.

"Um... who are you?" Sapphire couldn't help but ask.

"I'm Aura Moon." the boy replied.

"Well... Aura... were you the one who.. sent me those gifts for the past week?" Sapphire asked gently. Aura nodded, "D-Did you like them?" he asked, blushing. Sapphire blushed back, "Yeah.. thank you."

Aura scuffed the floor with his shoe, "Um.. so.. Princess-"

"Just Sapphire is fine."

"Right.. umm.. Sapphire, would you um... go on a date with me?"

Sapphire giggled nervously. "Hehe, okay."

"Awwww..." a few voices came surprising the two of them. "What the-?" It came from a nearby bush. The two went over and Sapphire pulled the bush apart. "You guys!" she whined. Hiding in the bush was Sunset and the others, including Mr Grandruler, Celestia and Luna.

"Oh, uh.. hi Sapphire." Sunset said sheepishly. "Whose your friend?"

Sapphire sighed while Aura stared in confusion.

Later, Sapphire was at Rarity's boutique where Rarity was making a dress for her date tonight. Marla was present too for support. "Oh darling, I'm so happy for you. That boy does look rather dashing." Rarity commented.

"I agree." Marla added. Sapphire playfully rolled her eyes, "Girls stop it." she whined. Rarity and Marla giggled.

"And... finished." Rarity called. Rarity showed the girls the dress. It was blue and covered with sparkles and it had one long light blue piece going around the waist with three yellow stars on it.

(Like this)

"Woah..." Sapphire gasped.

Marla squealed. "It's gorgeous."

Rarity giggled, "She'll be the belle of the ball, now let's get you ready." Rarity stated before dragging Sapphire off, "Woah!"

That night, the boys were at rarity's boutique to pick up Sapphire. Aura was fitted with a tuxedo, curtsy of Celesto. Keto and Bronc were present as well. Rarity and Marla stepped out, "Presenting the new and improved Princess of Friendship, Sapphire Sunlight." Rarity announced and Sapphire walked out of the boutique, wearing the dress with a small bow in her hair and she was wearing small high heel shoes.

The boys, especially Aura, gaped at her like fish. Rarity giggled as Aura got his senses back. Sapphire walked up to him, "You look.. beautiful." he said.

"Hehe, you do two." Sapphire said. "Ready?" Aura nodded and the two walked off together, for their first date.
