"I-I don't know, Nightlight, w-what if they don't like me?" Twilight asked.

Nightlight had told Twilight about the tryouts for Celestia's choir, which both excited Twilight, and also scared her to death. "I'm sure you'll do fine," Nightlight smiled as they stood outside the doorway, "You have a beautiful voice."

"Thanks, that helps."

"You're welcome. You're one of the few ponies I've ever wanted to be around, besides, that beautiful voice of yours needs to be heard."

"Stop." Twilight managed to tell him through giggles and her cheeks turning red.

"Don't mention it." Nightlight exhaled, and then asked, "Are you ready?"

"I think so, I'm just a bit nervous."

"You'll do fine, I know you will. Now, be sure to come back to my apartment when you've won, okay?"

"O-okay," Twilight turned to the door, exhaled, and muttered, "Okay, here goes..." Twilight pushed on the door and slowly entered the room. "Good luck, Twilight Velvet." Nightlight wished under his breath, before then leaving for home.

At Nightlight's apartment... The wait was excruciating. When he came back it was a little bit past ten, and now it was almost time for supper. Now, that might sound like a long wait to you, but when you're waiting on something that you have no control over, it takes makes it even worse. Nightlight sighed and got off his couch, he could go to the library, but then, what if Twilight came and he wasn't here. Darn. Nightlight then made his way to the fridge to see if he had anything to eat. He then came upon a package of burritos, 'That's weird,' Nightlight thought, 'I don't even like burritos.' Suddenly Nightlight heard a knock at the door, 'Could it be?' Nightlight rushed over to the door and opened it, and was instantly wrapped in a hug, courtesy of Twilight Velvet, "Oh-oh-Nightlight, y-you, I, she-"

"Whoa, whoa, calm down Twilight," Nightlight put his forelegs on her shoulders, ending the hug (though secretly, he wished he hadn't) "Did you get the part in the choir?"

"Yes! Yes! I did! And Princess Celestia is letting me live in the castle and-" Out of breath, Twilight collapsed on the floor, "Thank you, so much, Nightlight."

"Oh," Nightlight blushed, "You're welcome." Nightlight looked over at the clock and smiled, "I believe this is worthy of celebration, How 'bout we go to that restaurant a few blocks from here, did you see it?"

"You mean that big one? With the funny writing on the sign?"

Nightlight chuckled, "Exactly, I haven't eaten yet and, I assumed you hadn't so..." "

I haven't either, but I don't want you to spend a lot of money just on me, I'd enjoy just regular ol' pizza."

"They have pizza there, they have a bunch of stuff you might like."

"Like?"

"Um, I dunno, but I'm sure there's something."

"Yeah, but it's probably real expensive and-"

"Don't worry, my parents own it and I get a large discount. So," Nightlight smiled "Would you go to dinner with me, Twilight Velvet?" Twilight smiled, "I would love to, Nightlight."

The two unicorns went to the restaurant and had a very nice time. Nightlight's parents were quite astonished that their son had gone to to a restaurant with a beautiful mare, though, Twilight had to explain to Nightlight's parents over lunch how their son had saved her from the mugger, gotten her the job, and let her stay at his house the previous night. Nightlight's cheeks remained red almost the whole time. His parents kept praising him, as did Twilight, (though he had to admit, the praises Twilight gave he liked a bit better, okay, a lot better.) almost the whole time. After they had finished it was time for Nightlight's parents to lock the place up, which made Nightlight and Twilight realize how late it was, and said they had to get back.

"It's nice." Nightlight said. After they had left, Twilight had offered to have Nightlight over for a bit to see her new place in the castle.

"Thanks, but I couldn't have done it without you," Twilight smiled, "Thank you, so much."

"Sure, but you don't have to keep saying 'thank you',"

"I know, but I feel like I should do something..."

"It's fine, seeing you so happy is good enough. But, um,"

"What?"

"Could I come to your first event?" "Oh, Nightlight," Twilight giggled and then, without warning, gave Nightlight a large kiss on the cheek, "Of course you can."

"Thank you,"

"Oh, stop." Twilight smiled, playfully punching Nightlight.
