The alarm Dash set was rather loud, and blasted at 8:00pm. At the very sound of it, you flopped out of your bed.

"Smooth move, smart one." Dash apparently woke up earlier than you, and was wearing a thing you'd wear to a nightclub.

A cyan top that revealed both shoulders and fit tightly around the waist, and normal black skinny jeans. There were pitch black sunglasses over her magenta eyes. Her sneakers were rainbow, but she looked better than you're probably imagining her right now.

"Ooh someone's fancy aren't they?" You stuck your tounge out and got up, to face Rarity.

"I helped her pick out the clothing, thank you very much," She looked at Dash, "Darling, remove those silly glasses."

"No." Dash fussed with her shirt, "What the hell is up with this shirt? It's all flimsy and weak."

"Rainbow Dash, you got them. Flaunt them." Whoa Rarity....

"Rarity, can I just wear a simple t-shirt?" Dash undid a buckle at the front of the shirt, letting the waistline hand loose, "I'd feel much better."

"Fine. Don't bother me when you look like a peasant with no style!" Rarity held her nose high and walked out the door, and a very angry Applejack stormed in.

"Dash! Has Rarity been makin' you wear silly clothin' too?" Applejack was in her shorts, but the were suspenders hanging down and only the tight white shirt was her shirt. She had her boots on, though.

"Yeah. I'm fine with my jeans, but this top is too..." She pulled it over her head, "Frilly."

You stared in awe at the two girls that were just wearing tight undershirts in front of you.

Dash grabbed a plain tank top and slipped it on, then a brown leather jacket to go over top, "I'm ready. But we have to set the party up."

You smiled and walked past Applejack, who went back into her dorm and grabbed a plaid shirt. She put it on but left it undone, "Eeyup, let's go."

"I am indeed ready, for I am Rarity!" Rarity twirled out of her dorm, her hair done downwards, but still fancily, "Let us go, girls."

"Um... Hi guys... D-do you like it?" Fluttershy shyly came out of her room wearing a very light, long dress. It was ruffled at the top, and it was a one shoulder. That one strap was made out of vines, and there was a vine that served as a belt. Her bangs were pulled out of her face and across her hair, making a pattern.

"Yes Fluttershy, you look very pretty indeed." Rarity fixed a jewel on her purple dress, "Complete opposite of what Applejack here is wearing. Simply horrid."

"Hi..." Twi said while walking down the hall, holding a book. Really likes books, I see.

Twi was wearing a simple skirt and tank top, both yellow but the skirt having a white line on the bottom. Her necklace was a pink bow, "Pinkie's already downstairs."

And on that note, you all walked down the stairs. This specific building was only for dorms, but there was a hallway that led to the main building. In the main building, there was a giant park in the middle. It was incased in glass with a door that you could turn the handle and walk in. There was already four tables set up, one full with food and one full with drinks.

"Hiya!" Pinkie appeared with a light pink puffy skirt, which had another layer underneath that was a darker pink. She was wearing a tank top that matched the dark pink, with a black jacket on top. Her shoes were black with bright yellow socks coming out of them. In her hair was a head hand with a plastic cake on it, and some confetti.

"Sup Pinks?" Dash asked.

"Nothing much! We have an hour to make this park a party place, the supplies are over there. They are labelled to a specific place. GO!" Pinkie grabbed some cakes of all kind and placed them on a table, then some alcoholic drinks and they landed on the last table.

"Well, a lady would help... So I will organize the food and drinks in order of colour.

"I'll plan out where the decorations will go." Twi picked up a balloon and tied it to a hook on the edge of a table.

"I'll make a use out of the trees, since I can communicate with them better..." Fluttershy tied a balloon to a branch and whispered, "Just for now, tree."

Applejack volunteered to help set up the microphone, speakers and such with Dash, while you helped Pinkie with the decorations.

"So Pinks..." You put up a balloon, "Anyone singing for the party?"

Pinkie tied three balloons together, then tied them to a hook, "Dashie, Applejack and I! Then we'll play normal music."

"Cool. What song are you singing?" You hung a streamer across the trees.

"Secret!" She sing-songed while placing a candy bowl on the food table.

You walked over to help Applejack adjust the height of the microphone, "What song are you singing for the party?"

"Little Talks, why?" She pushed a button and slid the microphone upwards.

"Just wondering." You looked over at Dash, who was plugging in a speaker. You heard AJ laugh and you turned to her, "What?"

"I can keep a secret." She winked and motioned towards Dash. I don't get it.

Fluttershy was lifting up a bottle of wine because Twi told her to, and the party setup was almost complete.

"Hey, come over here." AJ pulled out an orange phone, "Since we're friends, we need each others number... Right?"

"Sure." You exchanged numbers and talked to Pinkie a bit until you reached Twi.

"Hey Twi, we haven't socialized much together. How are you?" You smiled.

"Technically I would say 'I'm doing fine' but that is not the case in this situation. I am doing very well." She put a check on a clipboard, "You?"

"I'm doing fine."

"Ah, that is incorrect. You see, you cannot jut be 'doing fine'. You have to have a reason or you must exaggerate, like I did."

"Okay... I am doing amazingly well today." You said, "Better?"

"Very." She checked something off again.

"So, is your full name-"

"Twilight Sparkle? Yes, it is." She pointed at a balloon and Pinkie wrapped it around a tree branch.

"Do you have a phone number?" You asked, slightly annoyed.

"If you are asking me out, no. I don't have a phone number. But if you're asking for it because you want to be friends, then yes." Twilight was nerdier than you... Obviously.

"As a friend." You handed her your phone and she slowly typed in her number, and then she passed you her phone so you could do the same. You went to take a picture of her, but half of her face was covered by a book.

"I don't like pictures..." She said before walking off, checking another item off the list.

"Rarity, do you have a phone number?" You called out to her as you jogged over to her.

"I indeed do, and here it is." She politely took your phone and typed in her number, taking a picture of herself. You do the same, but without the picture.

Yay more phone numbers.

"Pinks, we have everything set up. Now what?" You hung up a banner, the last one to be exact.

"We... PARTAY!" Pinkie clapped her hands and whistled, making the glass door open and letting people in, "Vinyl, behind the turntable pwease."

You sighed at Pinkie's use of 'pwease', but still laugh at it's adorableness.

"Sure Pinks!" The enthusiastic DJ hopped over to the turntable, and started playing music. Her head was bopping to the music, her headphones on one ear so she could hear out the other.

A bunch of people you didn't know were there, but some were. Like Bonbon and Lyra. You walked over to Bonbon to socialize, even though you suck at it.

"Hey Bonbon." You smiled, getting a small smile back from her.

"Oh hi I'm Lyra, nice to see that you noticed me." She sarcastically said, rolling her eyes.

"Hi Lyra, how are you today?"

"I'm fine. Still getting over that punch that the cowgirl turd gave me." She had a dark spot around her left eye, obviously something was rubbed over it to make it disappear faster.

"Sorry about that, AJ lost her temper. She's right over there if you wanna talk it out with her." You pointed behind you at the alcoholic drink table.

"Nah. Thanks for saying sorry even though it wasn't your fault." She said.

"Lyra, would you mind fetching us some drinks?" Bonbon sweetly said while smiling.

"Sure." Lyra walked off to the non-alcoholic table, pouring some drinks.

"So, You haven't called me yet and I was wondering if you weren't interested..." Bonbon's smile fell to a frown, her eyes tearing up.

"Bonbon, you're a very pretty, young female... But I have my eye on someone else." You hoped she wouldn't cry, "If I wasn't interested in that other person, I would go out with you."

She smiled and blushed, but cleared it up as Lyra returned, "Thank you, Lyra."

You grabbed a drink and thanked her, and as you heard a squeaking, you turned around.

"Hiya! Lyra, Bonbon! Glad you could make it!" She skipped over to them and hugged them both, "Oopsie! I gotta go announce the first singer of the night!"

"Bonbon, you're good at singing. You should try it out!" Lyra said as she slurped down some soda.

"I don't know..." She bit her lip, "All my songs are sappy."

"So what? Go on up and sing, bet you'll do great!" You encouraged her.

"Maybe I will!" She walked over to Pinkie and asked about singing, Pinkie giving a hyper nod. She looked back to you and you gave a thumbs up. Pinkie grabbed the microphone, and tapped it to check.

"Hiya everybody! So happy you could make it to the party! I'm gonna leave you with a guessing game! The singer that's coming up to sing Little Talks is a beautiful blonde, with emerald green eyes and a lining of freckles over her nose!" Pinkie hopped down and let some people discuss it until Applejack walked up the two steps to the microphone.

"Howdy, Ah'm singin' Little Talks by Of Monsters And Men, but Ah'm only singin' the female part. My cousin Braeburn'll sing the male part." She waved up a tall male with golden, almost firey, hair. He tipped his hat and smiled.

Vinyl started the music as Braeburn stepped up to the microphones used for duets.

“Ah don't like walking ‘round this old and empty house.” Applejack sang, actually pretty decent…

“So hold my hand, Ah'll walk with you, my dear.” Braeburn had the same effect of you.

“The stairs creak as you sleep, it's keeping me awake…” AJ smiled as she sang.

“It's the house telling you to close your eyes…” He smiled back at AJ.

“Some days Ah can't even trust myself.” Right there the music picked up.

“It's killing me to see you this way.” Braeburn finished off the first verse.

“'Cause though the truth may vary, this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore.” They sang together, which was followed by a bit of music.

“There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back.” AJ broke the no-lyrics thingy they had going on.

“Well tell ‘er that Ah miss our little talks.” That’s where the name of the song came from…

“Soon it will be over and buried with our past.” AJ picked Braeburn’s hat off and placed it on her head.

“We used to play outside when we were young, and full of life and full of love.” Braeburn rolled his eyes at his cousin, since she was wearing his hat. At that point, they were still singing, just you toned them down in your mind so you could mingle.

"Rarity, how are you liking the song?" You wondered that if she didn't like Applejack, maybe she would like her singing.

"I do indeed like this song, Applejack might be aggravating but her voice is alright." Her eyes kept roaming to Braeburn, and you decided to poke some fun at her.

"And how's Braeburn's singing?"

"Simply divine..." She dreamily said before shaking out of it, "Why must you ask?"

"Oh no reason..." You laughed at walked over to Twi, who was dancing horribly.

"Twi. Twi... TWILIGHT!" You chuckled out, her dancing making your lungs burn of laughter.

She stopped dancing and turned to you, "Yes?"

"You're embarrassing yourself... Just... Don't dance." This made Twi pull her glasses down to the tip of her nose, her eyes actually being there, and not hidden behind anything.

"Okay then..." She sadly said before pushing up her glasses. She head towards the non-alcoholic drink table, but not without giving an unsure look at the alcoholic drinks.

"Have you ever drank before, Twilight?" You asked, raising your eyebrows.

"Well duh! I drink, like, all the time..!" She sheepishly smiled.

"Let me rephrase that... Have you ever drank alcohol before, Twilight?" You grunted.

"Um... No..." She bit her lip and frowned.

"Try some." You held out some wine to Twi, even though you didn't like the taste of wine. You preferred beer and cider.

Twilight hesitated at first, but then sipped some, "Ew! It's bitter..."

"You'll get used to it."

"No no no... It's a good bitter!" She walked off with her glass, smiling.

"Though the truth may vary, this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore..." AJ and Braeburn finished, the music fading. They bowed and walked off stage, a round of applause coursing through the audience.

"Next game! She's pink and bubbly!" Pinkie looked back and forth expectantly, "Oospie! It's me!"

There were some laughs and Vinyl started playing a song, completely unknown to you. Pinkie almost instantly started singing, fading inwards.

“When you leave my colors fade to gray. Numa, Numa-ai, Numa, Numa Numa-ai. Every word of love I used to say, now I paint it every day… Ma-Ya-Hi, Ma-Ya-Hu, Ma-Ya-Ho, Ma-Ya-Ha Ha, Ma-Ya-Hi, Ma-Ya-Hu, Ma-Ya-Ho, Ma-Ya-Ha Ha.” Pinkie bounced around as she sang, smiling and dancing, “Hello, Salute, it's me, your babe, and I made something that's real to show you how I feel. Hello, Hello, it's me, Pinkie-a! I will paint my words of love with your name on every wall…”

A bunch of cheering went started, apparently people loved this song…

“When you leave my colors fade to gray. Numa, Numa-ai, Numa, Numa Numa-ai. Every word of love I used to say, now I paint it every day. When you leave my colors fade to gray, here my love will stay but all my colors fade away. Every word of love I used to say, now I paint it every day…” She continued to hop around, as you yet again went around to talk with people.

"AJ, you did great!" You fist-bumped her, and then you turned to Braeburn, "You too...Braeburn was it?"

"Yup, Ah'm Braeburn. Thank ya kindly for the appreciation. May Ah have y'all name? Any friend of my little AJ here is a friend of mine!" You said your name as Vinyl started another song.

Where's Dash...? She's supposed to preform...

Braeburn walked off, stealing his hat back. You were left there with AJ, so you started chatting, "How's the party so far?"

"Ah think it's goin' great. Ah met up with Lyra a while ago and she said sorry about insultin' me. Ah also said sorry about punchin' her." She smiled at you, and you smiled back.

"That's great! Are you friends now?"

"In matter of fact, she gave me her phone number. She told me to give it to you, too." She handed you a loose piece of paper, and you typed it in your phone. I'll take a picture of her later.

"Good for you, I'm gonna find Fluttershy and see how she's doing. Seeya later!" You walked to a girl sitting in-between the trees,on a bench, "Sup Flutters."

Dash was beside Fluttershy, tapping her foot to the music, and Fluttershy decided to answer, "I'm doing... Fine..."

"Would you like a drink?" You pointed to the alcoholic table, and Fluttershy nodded. As you turned around, Dash stopped you.

"Last time she drank alcohol, she ended up in jail. Just get her some juice. But I'll take a cider." Dash whispered.

"Okay...?" Fluttershy ending up in jail... Wow...

You got the drinks and spotted a blonde girl sitting under the table. You put the drinks down and crawled under. She surprised you as much as you surprised her, as her eyes were inwards facing her nose, "Hello, why are you under the table...?"

"Because nobody likes me..." She frowned.

"Oh come on, why wouldn't anyone like you?" You stared into her eyes, not getting a good look because of the way they were.

"Because of my eyes..." She slumped over, placing her face in her hands.

"You're eyes are unique."

"No. They're stupid." She looked at you and pouted, "Just plain stupid."

Holy crap, her pouting is cuter than Dash's.

"Listen here... Name?"

"Ditzy D-" She sighed, "Derpy..."

"Listen here, Derpy. You are beautiful. I like your eyes because they're different." You made sure she was paying attention, "No matter what people say, stay strong."

Derpy smiled and hugged you, grabbing your phone and entering her number, "Thanks."

You took her phone and entered your number, and told her your name. You got out from under the table and helped Derpy up, which caused some people to stare.

"They're staring..." Derpy shyly said.

"Look at her eyes! They're so weird!" A girl said, slapping her knee.

"Hey, hey. Derpy! Can you hear me or are you too stupid?" A male said, stepping towards Derpy.

"I can hear you..."

"Oh my Celestia! She knows how to talk! It's a miracle!" He said, laughing, "Retard."

"So what if her eyes are unique?! She's still pretty!" You said from beside Derpy.

"Nope, she's as ugly as a... Well... No way to describe your ugliness!" That made Derpy burst into tears, and an older girl burst through the little crowd that was watching.

"Yo, dude! Chillax! She's a bit different, whatever. I recommend you get out of here before something happens that I might regret!" She said. Her hair actually did look like fire... She was wearing a pair of shorts and a long, relaxed shirt. She pointed in a direction away from Derpy, and everyone went back to mingling or dancing, "You alright, kid?"

"Y-yes... Thank you..." Derpy wiped her tears and pouted again.

"I'm Spitfire, by the way. I'm an old student here. Captain of the track and field team. You are..?" She held out her hand and you shook it, saying your name.

"Thanks Spitfire, you really helped my friend here."

"No prob, how about I give you my number incase another one of your friends gets picked on?" She pulled out a iPhone, unlocking it.

"Sure." You gave her your phone to enter in her number, while you did the same. You took your phone and took a picture of her, in which she held up a peace sign. Reminds me of an older, taller Dash.

You looked at your watch and it was 10:00pm, and you had two hours to spare until the party was over. You hung out with your new friends and occasionally with Dash. By the time you were done with that, it was 10:30pm.

"Hey Dash, when are you gonna sing?" You asked.

"Around the end of the party. I saw you made friends with Derpy." Dash smiled and acted as if she remembered some memories.

"Yeah, you friends with her?" Dash responded with a nod of her head.

"Also, Spitfire?" She had a gleam in her eyes that wanted you to just kiss her again.

"Mhm." You nodded.

"Cool, I'm friends with her but she like... Never pays attention to me. Too busy with Soarin'." She shrugged, "Whatever, though."

Dash and you played a few games of Chubby Bunny, and time passed so fast that it was 11:00pm when Pinkie got up of stage again.

"It's been a while since a guessing game! Her hair is as sweet as her attitude, and she makes the best candy! In fact her bonbons are on the food table!" Pinkie smiled, waving up Bonbon, "Now, grab a partner... This song is a bit slower than our recent songs!"

Maybe I should ask Dash... No, spontaneous...

Vinyl started some music. You pulled up Dash from the bench and twirled her around, making her laugh. The music lasted about twelve seconds before Bonbon started singing.

"The night is deafening, when the silence is listening and I'm down on my knees and I know that something is missing because the back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in but I choose to ignore it because I'm always denying them. I'm a bit of a manic when it's not as I plan it 'cause I start losing my head then I get up in a panic. Remember, when we were kids and always knew when to quit it. Are we denying a crisis or are we scared of admitting it? I don't want to know…” Bonbon started while sitting on a stool, but then she started to rise near the end.

You held Dash's waist, occasionally sticking out your tongue to make her laugh. You kept looking into her eyes, but once you stared too long, and cracked up when she stuck out her tongue.

"I just wanna run to you and break off the chains and throw them away… I just wanna be so much and shake off the dust that turn me to rust. Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour… I need a saviour.” On the word 'run', Bonbon kicked over the stool and you let go of one of Dash's hands, making her spin outwards then back in. As smooth as a cucumber... Wait what.

Bonbon crouched down, her knees almost touching the ground.

“It will never change, if you want it to stay the same. I really hate it, but I know it's hard to choose if you're chained and when it's all you control 'cause you got nothing else to hold. You're getting tighter and tighter, it's getting harder to let it go. I don't want to know…” She popped up and spun around as she started the chorus again, you leaning Dash down and pulling her back up.

“Having fun?” You just got Dash to chuckle… Aw, she didn't say yes...

“I just wanna run to you and break off the chains, and throw them away. I just wanna be so much and shake off the dust that turn me to rust. Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour… I need a saviour.”

“Stand me up and maybe I won't be so small… Free my hands and feet and maybe I won't always fall…” Bonbon put her free hand behind her head, turning her head so it would face her elbow, “Save me…”

Bonbon pulled her hand out from behind her head at the word ‘run’, making it dramatic yet again, “I just wanna run to you… and break off the chains and throw them away. I just wanna be so much… and shake off the dust that turn me to rust.”

“I just wanna run to you, and break off the chains and throw them away. I just wanna be so much… and shake off the dust that turn me to rust. Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour…” Bonbon pulled the stool up with her foot, sitting down, and placing the microphone back, "I need a savior..."

You wanted to make a move on Dash... Scratch that... You needed to make a move on Dash. You leaned in and kissed her, making it last until the song's music ended. Which was ten seconds. As you pulled away, you noticed there was a spotlight on you and Dash. Everybody started clapping for Bonbon at first until they realized the spotlight and what it was shining on. They were still clapping for Bonbon, but for you and Dash too. You looked around and then at Dash's blushing face.

"Now that's what a badass would do!" Spitfire shouted out, with caused a bunch of people to start whooping and fist-pumping the air.
