"Thanks everyone", Pinkie Pie squealed.
"No need to thank us, Pinkie. We are all happy to help you. Right girls?", Twilight replied.
They were all at Sugarcube Corner. Well, not really. It was the little part at the top, where Pinkie lives. Lying on the floor, it had to be, thousands of greeting cards for Hearts-and-Hooves Day.
"No, there IS a need. If I hadn't eaten all that bad candy, I wouldn't have gotten sick and those cards would have been finished yesterday, and not just one day before the great event."
"I don't get that event. Let me get this straight. You make one card for everyone in ponyville, hide them and then tomorrow everyone will search for it?", RD asked.
"No silly. Not just me. Everyone in Ponyville makes cards and hides them."
Applejack (just imagine the southern accent) entered this conversation. "It sure sounds great, but I do think you're ripping off another holiday."
"But you have to admit that it sounds like fun.", came from Fluttershy.
"Oh, yes. Huh, does that mean you're going to participate?", replied Rarity.
"Oh no. I can't. All the boys in town ran after me all week to invite me. I'm just glad none of them saw me getting here"
"You should consider yourself lucky. Only one of them approached me and all he could do was mumble an incomprehensible invitation and a "Sorry, it's nothing." So, you're just going to hude all day. First time I heard someone would do that, but what are you others going to do?"
"Me and Pinkie are going to inspect the search, to make sure all is clear. And you Twilight?"
"I'll be heading to the Crystal Empire for a get-together with a certain orange pegasus.", came out of her mouth with a blush and a magical hairtwirling.
"Well, I am going to look after my sister.", explained Raity
"Hey, Applebloom told me Sweetie Belle will have a date with a boy."
"Have you seen him? I tell you this "Button Mash" means trouble."
"Oh dear Celestia. I can't take this talk about love and dates anymore. It's like everyone is a whole new person at this time of year."
"Hey, don't talk like that. First, we barely even mentioned it. Second, what will you do tomorrow"?
"Same as every year. Training at the training area. In fact, I'm gonna go let some steam off."
"Wow, what's gotten into her?" was the question that stood unspoken in the room.
After a few seconds Rarity broke the silence. "Don't worry girls. She just needs to find the right one. Then she will know what it means."
