This is the story you all know and love but with a few of my own personal touches. It will have the same characters (with a few added), different stories and this version is more violent, serious and mature. Also, I'd like to apologize in advance if it takes forever for the next chapter to come out; I get distracted fairly easily but bear with me. I promise all chapters will be released sooner or later. I hope you all enjoy it, if so please add it to your alert list.

It's the same night as where we left of. The party was over and everypony went home. Back at Twilight's place. Twilight was shaking from how nervous she was. She knew she had to ask Brad about what him and Rainbow Dash were doing. Luckily, Brad was talking to Spike, which would her more time to steel herself.

"So what happened? It seemed you disappeared while look for Dash." Spike said. "I found her easily but it took a while to convince her to come downstairs, she said she wasn't feeling" Brad lied. Twilight thought about bringing it up there but the fear got the best of her. It was about two in the morning anyway. Tomorrow's another day, right? "Well, I'm going to bed, night guys" Twilight said and walked upstairs to her bed.

Since Brad was living with Spike and her she had to rearrange the room. Her bed was against the wall on the right side of the room; Brad's was against the wall on the left, with Spike's basket in the middle of the two. Twilight climbed into her bed and tried so hard to fall asleep.

She closed her eyes and when she opened them the sun was up, so she assumed she slept. She sat up in her bed to see if Brad was in his. When she saw he wasn't she checked if Spike was in his basket, which he was. She looked at her clock and it was 7:00a.m. She got out of her bed to make breakfast for Spike and herself; he deserves after all the years he had made breakfast for her.

"Brad, you in here?" she asked as she barged into the kitchen. She saw Brad at the table; he had a guilty expression on his face. "Yeah, I'm in here" he answered "good morning, Twilight." "Good morning" Twilight said back with a big awkward smile. Brad saw from her expression that something was bothering her. "What's wrong?" He asked.

Twilight gulped and prepared for the most awkward conversation of her life. ""I saw you and Rainbow Dash kiss last night," she said as fast as she could. "Oh, you know about that" Brad said, his face red as a tomato. "Look, Twilight, what happened last night was a thing of the moment. I'm going to talk to R.D. about it today and I'm sure she'll feel the same way." Brad assured her. Twilight was unsure how that made her feel.

Just then Spike thankfully walked into the kitchen, it helped ease some of the tension. "Hey Twilight, what do you want for breakfast" Spike asked, "I'll make you something too, Brad if you want." "No thanks, I'll pick breakfast while I'm out" Brad said opening the door. "Going to go talk to Rainbow Dash already?" Twilight asked. "That and I'm going to go find a job, I feel like I'm mooching off you when all I do is sit around the house all day." And with that the stallion walked out the door.

It was a bright and sunny day in Ponyville. "Well, where should I start looking?" Brad asked himself. He stumbled around for a while. All that stumbling led him to the Carousel Boutique. He walked in and saw Rarity, working a beautiful green dress covered in sapphire gems. Rarity turned to see who had entered. When she saw whom it was she smiled. "Brad, darling how are you today?" Rarity asked. "Very well" Brad said returning a smile.

"What's with the fancy dress?" Brad asked. "It's for a client, I think she will be quite satisfied with it." Rarity answered with pride over her work "What do you think?" Brad stared at the garment for a while. "Well, personally I think it would look better with rubies instead of sapphire." After that was said Rarity used her magic to grab a ruby and do a comparison. After a few seconds of comparison. "Wow, you're right" Rarity said as she removed the sapphires and put rubies in their place, "you've got an eye for fashion." "You really think so?" Brad asked. "Absolutely" Rarity responded. After all the sapphires on the dress were replaced Rarity faced Brad. "Well, is their something I can help you with?" she asked. "Yeah, I'm looking for a job, know where I can go?" "You could work for me. The job will pay well and I could used my own assistant around here." "Sounds great, when can I start?" Brad asked, eager to work. "Tomorrow." Rarity responded. "Okay then, see you tomorrow, boss." Brad said as he left the building.

Okay, that's one priority taken care of. Now… Rainbow Dash. Although, he very much enjoyed the kiss they shared, Brad has dated many mares before (it wasn't hard to get girls with his good looks along with being a royal guard) and one thing he learned he learned from those experiences. Love is hell. All his relationships ended in disaster or disappointment. So he knew he had to end this before he got sucked in again.

Brad walked, kind of nervously under Rainbow Dash's home. Being a unicorn meant he couldn't fly, so he was unsure how to get a hold of Dash. He could use the wing spell but that was a very difficult spell and Brad really didn't feel like conjuring all that magic. Just then by luck, Rainbow Dash stepped outside her house.

"Rainbow Dash!" Brad yelled, trying to get her attention. When Rainbow Dash saw who was calling her, her heart skipped a beat with glee. She flew as fast as she could without looking desperate to the ground. "Hi Brad, how are you?" "Um, Dash, you remember what we did last night?" Brad said sadly. "Yeah" Rainbow Dash said, her smile beginning to fade. "Well, I was kind of hoping that we could just keep going on as friends." At first there was silence. "Oh, is that all?" Rainbow Dash said doing a very good job of hiding the hurt in her voice "I was thinking the same thing." "So… were still friends right?" Brad asked. R.D. nodded. "Great, I guess I'll see you around then." Brad said as he walked away. "See you around" Rainbow Dash said too quietly for Brad to hear. The end of ch2

Okay I know I said this story wasn't going based SO much on Brad but in the end I decided to go with my original idea so it will be from Brad's perspective for most of the story. Thanks for reading, I hope you stick around to see ch3 and so forth.
