"Uhh... Starswirl the bearded!"

"Correct!"

Twilight closed the exam book with a smile, looking up at Trixie who was wearing a similar satisfied expression.

"I really think this exam is going to go well Trixie. Just make sure you keep studying and you should do great."

Trixie stood up and began to approach Twilight with a look that made her uneasy.

"Well..." Trixie began in a sultry tone, stopping herself inches from Twilight's face. She reached out to place a hoof on Twilight's hips. "Now that we have some free time..." Trixie pressed her body up against Twilight's.

Her heart racing, Twilight scrambled to speak, the words she had rehearsed for this moment becoming lost in a jumble of nerves, confusion and many, many other feelings she did not understand. She felt her cheeks grow hot as she experienced the soft touch of Trixie's hooves against her coat. She felt dizzy as Trixie's face moved closer to her own. She knew she should say something, do something, but she felt paralyzed in Trixie's embrace. The warmth of her body was frustratingly pleasant, and it seemed her body wanted to do nothing but allow what was happening to happen. Her deliberations lasted far too long, and Twilight let out a little squeak as she felt Trixie's lips meet her own once again. She shut her eyes as she once again felt Trixie's tongue roll over her own, the familiar taste filling her mouth. Trixie's hooves caressed her back as they kissed. Why did she have to be so good at this? It only made what Twilight had to say next so much harder.

Using all of her willpower, Twilight placed a hoof on Trixie's chest and broke the kiss, pushing the enamored magician back an inch for some breathing space. "Trixie wait," she murmured. She couldn't bring herself to look the magician in the eyes as she found the will to speak the next few words. Trixie backed off slowly, a worried look on her face. She lowered her haunches to the floor.

"Trixie..." Twilight began again, rubbing one foreleg nervously with another. "I think its important we focus on the task at hand. The exam is very close by and I don't want there to be any... distractions.

Trixie's worried expression quickly dropped, a calmness returning to her features.

"Is that all this is?" she asked with renewed confidence. She moved closer to Twilight once again. "If that's really what your worried about..." Trixie placed a hoof on Twilight's cheek. "...we could always just go upstairs and you could help me... get this out of my system."

The combination of Trixie's inviting tone of voice and her half-lidded gaze proved to be extremely potent. Twilight's brain short-circuited,  overloaded by the information and sensations that had assaulted it. Was Trixie really suggesting that they... do that? It was something she had not yet experienced, and she always wondered when the day would come. Should she accept this offer? She always thought it would be with a pony very special, or very close, but the idea of doing it with Trixie was not at all unpleasant. There was just too much to think about.

"No Trixie... I'm sorry but this is all a little too much. I really think we need to give it some time," she responded eventually.

A look of anger now crossed Trixie's face.

"Its hardly that complicated Twilight," Trixie snapped, stepping back from her. "Your just too much of an egghead to ever actually enjoy the fun things in life, everything needs to be thought about or given time. For once in your boring life you should learn to do something fun."

Twilight did not know how to respond. She felt too guilty at rejecting Trixie's affections to defend herself. She just sat there, her eyes on the floor, feeling like dirt.

When Trixie could see she was getting no answer from the pathetic looking unicorn, she lost her patience.

"Whatever, if you're going to be boring as usual, I'll find my own fun."

With that, Trixie stormed out of the library, slamming the door behind her, leaving a miserable Twilight Sparkle alone with her thoughts.
