Loves won loves lost.

As the week rolled on, everyone was getting excited for the Valentine's day dance coming up on Friday. However, whenever someone around Spencer continue to pass him suddenly found themselves in love with someone, they had no feelings for to begin with.

In the back country of Thomas's homestead, the Narrow-Gauge Boys and the Cutie mark Crusaders are engaging in a friendly game of Hockey. Cassey Tallshalley had come over along with David Scott Kirkland to help teach the young boys how to play the game fairly. So far Peter Sam, Sir handle and Duncan are already learning fast while Rheneas Skarlowey and Duke are taking their time to learn the game. While all this was going on, Scoot a Loo was also learning along with Luke, and Rusty about how to play the game with Apple bloom. Jessie Brear, and Jon Paul are helping the three understand how the game is played and to show a couple of stick tricks to help their own team overcome the odds. Both Rusty and Scoot a Loo are already having game just as Apple Bloom came up on the two as Luke came up and made a score for their little group.

Apple Bloom. "Wow Luke, you did that shot without fail."

Luke. "Thanks, I am still learning after all."

Jon Paul. "But I must say that you are learning quick my friends."

Rusty. "All thanks to your experience on the ice Jon Paul."

Scoot a Loo. "Hey Sweetie Bell, are you joining us?"

Sweetie Bell. "I will be there soon, just having to adjust these ice skates before long."

Apple Bloom. "Well we can wait; we still have all day until the sisters are finished with their part of the Valentine's day dance on Friday."

Sweetie Bell. "I would not mind helping out with that, I believe it is lovely to hear how the older kids have their love interest already."

Scoot a Loo. "Well just keep me away from that for a while, I have a lot of growing up to do, and I do not want to miss any part of my filly hood."

Duke. "You will not miss a thing young Scoot a Loo; time will one day allow for you to fall in love with someone someday."

Duncan. "Funny how you have not fallen for someone Duke, I am sure there would have been someone you had an eye out for."

Sir Handle. "We had not many lady engines on our line Duncan, even if there were, she had to put up with his saying his grace now and then."

Peter Sam. "Better her than us ay Sir Handle."

Sweetie Bell. "I just imagine someone may have a crush on him at one point do to the fact that he can be a gentleman now and then."

Duke went red in the face from that comment just as Rarity and Applejack came over to gather their sisters before returning home for items that can help décor the dance floor of the homestead dance.

Rarity. "Sweetie Bell."

Applejack. "Apple Bloom come on y'all we have to get cracking if we want to make our special dance on Friday the right touch. Then we need to return home to find the objects we need to make the dining hall shine for the event."

Cutie Mark Crusaders. "Coming Rarity and Applejack."

Sweetie Bell. "And just when I was about to learn about ice Hockey."

Rarity. "So sorry Sweetie Bell, but we need to return home anyways for the days class at the school of friendship at home.'

Scoot A Loo. "Oh yeah, it is almost class time in our world so, we would probably come back again tomorrow and learn more about his hockey that you are teaching us guys."

Peter Sam. "I suppose, as well."

Sir Handle. "Don't be strangers' girls, or we will have to hunt you down in your world."

Apple Bloom. "Best not to Sir Handle, if you come to our world you may end up as a pony instead of a young boy."

Rusty. "considered us warned girls."

Cassey. "Alright girls, I supposed we can continue to learn the game of hockey for those who are really interested in the game alright."

Cutie Mark Crusaders. "Bye everyone. Bye."


Then the ponies with their sisters went back to their world for the night, and the rest of the homestead have placed their projects away for now until the next day. Until then the couples were getting restless since Valentine's day is near, each of them are in the mood with their loved ones as they all settled down for the night. Thomas and Rosie are last to head for home, Ariel is already there with Eric from Harrwic harbor. Rosie was heading for the barn just as Thomas was getting something from his workshop. Like the previous year when Thomas began making jewelry for Rosie since he cannot afford anything extremely expensive, then he can just make it both with his eyes and with his heart. Rosie remembered the gift she received the previous year and wanted to get something for Thomas to show how much he means to her. Rosie Managed to make a special quilt. She along with Rarity and Ariel helped make this special quilt that had a series of Roses surrounding the circle of blue with the number one in the middle. The quilt was to help remind Thomas how mush he means to Rosie. Thomas managed to get the special flower pin he made for Valentine's day, The Pin is in the shape of a pair of engine wheels, one blue the other Cherry red, in the middle of a rose heart floral arrangement surrounding the wheels.

Thomas to himself. "I hope she likes it; it took me since last fall to make it."

Rosie decided to return to the house first to surprise Thomas as he walks into the bedroom of the home. He can hear his sister with Eric and decided not to bother them since he has someone in his mind. Then up the stairs he went, just as Rosie finished placing the Quilt over their bed. Then she decided to head into the bathroom to change and get ready to spend her time with Thomas.

Thomas. "Rosie I am back."

Rosie. "I be right out, need to shower and change Thomas."

Thomas. 'Take your time Love, the night is still young." He says as he was getting ready for bed as he changes his clothes for the night. He just finished as he had noticed the quilt laying over the bed. He was most amazed of the wonders of his beloved Rosie for making such an item to begin with. "Wow Rosie, have you made this item that I am eyeing right now?"

Rosie. "If you meant the Quilt Thomas then yes it was the Item, I wanted to make for a special occasion like tonight my handsome Thomas."

Thomas. "Well I must say that I am impressed, nice work my lovely Rosie Rose."

Then Rosie came out looking just as amazing from the previous year. "Well Thank you may handsome Thomas, how about you and I snuggle up under that thing and we can make the memories worth taking my love."

Thomas. "With you looking so lovely my love, how can I say no to you." Thomas however still places safety over pleasure knowing he and Rosie are not ready yet for unexpected surprises. After placing that item on himself. Both he and Rosie began their love play. Just before they got too deep Thomas presented to Rosie his gift to her. "Here, I got you something that I hope you can enjoy it as I have making it for you."

Rosie opened her gift and was delighted about what she was given. She was over the moon about the precious gift she was given from Thomas. "This is very beautiful Thomas; I shall wear it on the night of the dance love."

Thomas. "Beautiful my beautiful rose, and I do not just mean the pin, I mean all that is every bit of you." Then both Thomas and Rosie were in deep love with each other. With every passion, every touch and every move they made this night will be worth the memories from this night onward. Everyone who has their loved ones nearby are indeed enjoying their time since it is close to Valentine's day in two days.

Al throughout the day, everything went like clockwork, everyone went to their classes, and still discuss the matters whenever Spencer will be passing anyone in the hallway will have a love interest in someone even if they had no idea as of why. This time the gang was ready to confront Spencer just after school knowing it will be the one thing, they all need to get to the bottom of why everyone went love struck whenever he went by.

Twilight to Sunset. "The time is now Sunset, are you ready?"

Sunset to Twilight. "The sooner the better, come on." And the two came up to Spencer just as he was leaving the school for the Pizzeria and from behind him was Gina and Ashima blocking Spencer.

Spencer. "What is all of this, why have you all surrounding me like this/"

Twilight. "Sorry Spencer, there is an item that you may be carrying in your coat pocket that we need to get back."

Sunset. "It is called the lovey Dove Gem, it was an artifact from our world of Equestria, and we need to get it back before too many lives can be ruined."

Gina. "We have witness many of our friends from the international house becoming romanticized once you walk past then and all of the sudden the become passionate about someone without even knowing why."

Ashima. "All we ask of you Spencer is to reveal the love gem in your pocket, and everyone will be alright again."

Then Spencer revealed the love gem realizing it was causing even him to fall in love with someone without knowing why. "Well I guess that explains a lot. Well here you two make sure this returns to where it belongs to." Then hands Twilight and Sunset the love gem back just as Twilight used her magic to send it back to the archives on Canterlot in Equestria.
Twilight. "Now that item is out of the way, everything will be back normal."

Spencer. "yeah and I have no one to have for a date, how is it that a lot of you have that special someone and I do not."

Twilight. "My special someone already had an interest in me before I ever learned of it."

Gina. "Oliver can be resourceful, he is clever, and he cares about how he and his friends will be able to survive the elements when he needs to think things through."

Ashima. "Ryan is just sweet, and he cherishes my dreams and wishes."

Sunset Shimmer. "I am still struggling with my affairs back home, but things could not be sweeter."

Spencer. "Then what is it that I am missing, even you ponies from that colorful place have someone in your lives and I cannot be able to find that special lady in my life."

Twilight. "That is because you do not know how to be a friend first, all you think about is how grand of an engine you were supposed to be. Since you became human and tired to get along with everyone else. You have a hard time making a good first impression."

Sunset. "You are just constantly Rude and have little sympathy to anyone you meet."

Gina. "Instead of a simple hello and welcome. You have the nerve to say watch out and get out of my way."

Ashima. "Your mannerism is not at its best Spencer; it is something that needs a great deal of work if you wanted to find that special someone Spencer. Then the first thing you need to work on is how you greet the people even for one instant of your time Spencer."

The girls realized that Spencer really had not been able to associate with others since he does not get that much exposure to really know how to speak to people and others.

Later, on the homestead, everyone was getting the dining hall ready for the next night it was Valentine's day, and the dance. Most were in the dining hall getting the ball room ready with colorful sparkling tapestries and décor with sparkling roses circulating an engine wheel. The tables were set, and the dance floor was opened while the stage was being built with a DJ that was hoping to come by and play the music. This is when Pinky Pie Invited someone, she knew back in Equestria it was Vinyl Scratch she came over to see how her music playing will help the romantic side of Valentine's day.

Rosie. "Hello Pinky Pie, who is this you had brought with you?'

Pinky Pie. "This is a friend of mine who also helps me out on parties too, her name is Vinyl Scratch, she can help provide the music for The Sparkling Rose Dance tomorrow night."

Rosie signed to Vinyl Scratch to remove her headphones so she can be heard. "I would like to welcome you Vinyl Scratch, why don't we show you where the sound stage will be."

Vinyl Scratch gave her thumbs up before answering. "Thank you." Then was escorted to where the stage was.

Thomas was helping clean up the dining area and placing the tables and seating around the dance floor for people to sit down, while waiting for their loved ones to ask for a dance on Dance night. "Tell me where you want these Rarity?"

Rarity. "over here Thomas darling, this could be the best look for the décor of this special dance night."

James. "Has anyone asked you for a date yet Rarity?"

Rarity. "I am afraid not James, not one had managed to capture the heart of this fancy fashioned humanized pony yet."

Molly. "Give it time Rarity, I am sure there is someone out there just for you."

Spike. "I know that I do."

Jessica. "When you are not a dog that is spike."

Spike. "Hey!"

Thomas Stopped to observe the preparations for the dance. "Alright everyone the dinning ball room is coming along great."

Daisy. "Oh, isn't this delightful darlings, just imagine dancing under the starry night sky while dancing to a slow song with my wonderful Bo Co."

Bo Co, hearing that decided to make himself invisible until the following night when it will be time to be a gentleman to Daisy.

Thomas. "Just do not end up chasing him all over the dance floor Daisy, I believe you may embarrass him from time to time."

Daisy. "Do not worry Thomas, I am sure he and I will get along real nice."

Then Thomas decided it was really time to get ready for another day.

Thomas. "Alright everyone I can see that the ball room of the Dining hall is coming together, I suggest that we get a good night's rest then we can get ready for the dance tomorrow night everyone."

Everyone applauded for a good job on the dining hall before everyone was to head home for the night and the ponies must return home for their classes in the School of friendship.

This night Thomas and the other fellow engines had dreamed of something strange, they all seemed to be dreaming about the other girls besides of their own girls. Thomas was first dreaming dancing with Rosie before she became Emily then becoming, making sure he understands of what he was seeing he looked away for a minute to see it was Twilight Sparkle before waking up realizing it was all a dream. A dream that he hopes will never come true. Especially since he has a strong relationship with Rosie, the love of his life.

Gordon was Dreaming his special time with Rebecca, when all the sudden she became Catlin then becoming Rainbow Dash before Waking up before Rebecca who was still in the bed with him.

Percy was also having strange dreams, First he and Polly were hand in hand near a waterfall with the Magic Buffers behind them when all of a sudden Lady became Gina, Then becoming Pinky Pie before waking up to see Polly still with him in the bed much to his relief.

Toby was asleep with Mavis when he had witness her becoming Flora the other Steam tram on Sodor before becoming Applejack much to his horror. As he wakes up, he finds himself with Mavis still in bed with him. Toby hopes that the dream he had would not come true.

Henry was in bed dreaming of running through his favorite forest with Emily only to find her becoming Lady and then becoming Fluttershy much to his confused about it. Then after waking up to find himself in bed with Emily relieved to be in the bed with the love of his life.

James was dreaming of how Molly was admiring his splendid good looks and could not help but be lost in his gaze. As they come closer to a kiss, James herd a different voice than Molly's. It was Rosie that shocked him at first before looking again to find Rarity just before him realizing that it may not be wise to kiss some one just because they are there. Then just as Rarity was coming up to kiss him, he woke up to find Molly still in the bed with him relieved that Molly was not really replaced by who he saw.

While most of the couples had a wonderful night dreaming about their special interest the guys of the Steam team could not help but to wonder what the dreams were about. Then decided to talk to let the dreams slide since it would be heart breaking for their loved ones to hear.

The following morning everyone was ready to face this wonderful day, for today was Valentine's day and it was the day for the Sparkling Rose Dance on the homestead. After a strange dream from the previous night, Thomas had explained to Rosie about the dream he had the previous night.

Rosie was a bit surprised to hear that not only did he dreamed about Emily, but about Twilight Sparkle too. She hoped the dream was just that, and hopes it is not the start of something bad.

Thomas. "I had no idea that I was going to dream about then Rosie, I had always shown respect to all my friends and their love interests. Never in my mind would I ever wanted anything that can hurt the people I care about, nor to the one who means the most to me Rosie."

Rosie. "Did you ever have feelings for them in the past Thomas?"

Thomas. "Not in the same what I had with you, I never knew Emily had any interests with me until just before you and I became human that night. For Twilight, I never knew she existed until the revelation of the Book on the two Sisters of Equestria. Even then I never had any interest in anyone who would one day Rule the land Of Equestria while I am still here living my life you and I had planned since owning this with you love."

Rosie. "I just hope this is not the beginning of something bad Thomas." Thomas held out his hand to reach for Rosie's to encourage her to come and sit on his lap. In the way couples do.

Rosie responds by searching her hand to his and allowed for her to be on top of Thomas as she came close to sit on top of him to be held by him before they begin their day. As the two come close they gave each other a reassuring kiss knowing how much the amount of Feeling they have for one another.

Thomas. "Rosie, I do not know what that dream may me for me, all I know is that I have loved you for as long as I have known you. We started out not on the best of terms, but throughout our journey on this Island you and I became more than friends. You are the love of my life Rosie; you make me laugh when I am down. You help raise my spirits when I felt my spirits may have sunken too low to be risen again. Yet you are still here with me no matter what you and I speak about. Since owning this homestead with you when this whole humanization started, you and I have proven we can be the best we can be no matter how hard the obstacle in our way may be. I love you more than ever my Rosie rose, and I do not just say it because of that silly dream. I am saying that because it is what makes me more in love with you than ever before my love."

Hearing what Thomas had said made her love Thomas in return just as much he does her.

Rosie, after hearing all that Thomas had said, decided to give him a kiss to let him know how moved she was about how he feels for her. "I Love you too Thomas, I may not have gotten on to the right track when we first met. I was hoping you would notice me and want to be friends with me. Then after learning how you defended me from Hector all those years ago. It may me realized how much you cared for my wellbeing. Then after your confession about how you feel for me, then I realized that I just needed to be me. Being who I am is just you wanted to know, and not because of how much I want your attention Thomas. You would protect me and all our friends, that has what brought my heart to you even stronger Thomas. You have shown how kind, wonderful caring, and protective you have proven to be. I love you for being you, the most wonderful person anyone could ever ask for, either as the former Number 1 engine, or just being this wonder handsome boy who is sharing this special moment with me. I love you Thomas my number one man this lonely Rose could ever ask for." The two laughed a bit before engaging a deep passionate kiss knowing that the dream was just that a dream that hopes never come true. Then both Thomas and Rosie began to regain their senses and started to meet up with the rest before heading out for school then return home to get ready for the dance that night.

The other boys also told their special someone about the dreams they all had and like Thomas and Rosie, confessed what had made their love interest so special to each of the girls they each one of them had fallen for. The girls also realized they had their revelations about their feelings for their love interest knowing they all had strange dreams about being with those who they never had interest in before knowing the other beforehand. Everyone made their piece before meeting up with their friends as everyone got ready for school, the ponies also heard about the dreams Thomas and the other boys on the homestead had dreamed about. Twilight and her friends never had imagined gaining love interest in Thomas and the other members of the Original Steam Team before. However, it was now time for school, and everyone went on with their day.

On This day the boys decided to give their loved one's special flowers to show their love interest. The best way they all know how to please their ladies while school is still in session.

Even in lunch time everyone was still confused about the dreams they all had the night prior; none had a good explanation. However, they all know it was a bunch of silly dreams that may not come true. They each have their love interests already. Not one dare to break their vows to their ladies, not while life for them is still young.

Now it is after School and it was time to head home to the homestead or to which of the homes the humanized engines reside. Thomas and Rosie are already getting dressed up in their formal attires. While Thomas was looking sharp with his blue and red striped tuxedo with a red butterfly bow tied and gold number on cufflinks. Rosie with her hair up is wearing a Cherry red Dress with a Raspberry Jacket over her shoulders with grey colored elbow length gloves, and have that pin that Thomas made on the right hand side of her jacket with a small purse to help store things while she visits the dining hall for the dance.

Thomas. "Almost there beautiful?"

Rosie. "just about Thomas, just placing my winter boots on."

Thomas. "That is Ok Rosie, take your time to make yourself outshine me. Cause no matter how we are dressed, it is how you and I will look to each other on that dance floor my love."

Rosie now finished with dressing herself revealed her radiant beauty for Thomas to see. "Well now handsome, I say you and I look stunning for our night out." Thomas could not help but be memorizing on how radiant Rosie appeared to him.

Thomas. "That you do Rosie, and I must say that I must be looking into my heaven if you are just as amazing as an angel, a lovely Cheery red angel my love." The two came together for a brief loving hold and kiss before being interrupted by Ariel Thomas's sister, so everyone can be ready for the dance tonight.

Ariel. "Thomas Rosie, we are ready." Both Thomas and Rosie let go of each other before the thought of Ariel coming up to find them before the dance was on the way. "What ever it is you two, I am sure you may have that same love magic after the dance." Then both Thomas and Rosie came into view and just before Flash Sentry and Twilight Sparkle had seen how beautiful Thomas and Rosie are together for tonight.

Twilight. "Wow Look at the two of you, you do deserve each other."

Rosie. "Thank you, Twilight, I see that both you and Flash are also ready for the events for, tonight right?!"

Flash. "You bet Rosie, Twilight and I have been looking forward in this Valentine's day event."

Thomas. "That is the Sparkling rose Dance Flash, there comes a time when you want to make the moments with Twilight more mesmerizing. That way you both will have great memories to reflect on for the both of you to share with each other."

Flash. "I will take that to mind Thomas."

Ariel. "Now that we are finish with sharing great thought about our love interest. I say it is time for the dance to start everyone so let us go already." The rest of the party laughed just as they now departed the house for the dining hall for the Sparkling Rose Dance.

Once inside everyone had gathered around the dance floor waiting for the first couple to take the dance floor. Most everyone was taking their time near the refreshments that was made by both Pinky Pie the Apple Family and the homesteaders. Everyone was commented about how everyone had dressed, just as the first of the homesteaders entered the ball room floor. Thomas and his group and just entered and after hearing the music made both Thomas and Rosie egger to get on the dance floor starting the dance followed by Henry and Emily taking the floor afterward. Soon everyone was on the floor slow dancing with their special ladies in their holds while those without dates stood on the side lines hoping one day, they will find that special someone. When the music was rockin, everyone was having a great time dancing not only with their ladies but with the friends they enjoy dancing with.

James. "now this is some party Thomas."

Thomas. "Thanks James. How about you Molly enjoying this special moment?"

Molly. "That I am Thomas thank you and to everyone who made this special night the more special."

Rosie. "We are glad that you are enjoying this Molly."

Rarity. "Even without a date I find this evening most exciting my dear friends."

Percy. "That is the best part, it is the fun you have with your friends as well as your loved ones on how to make the night more fun Rarity."

From behind Fluttershy came the hand of her friend from Equestria who decided to come this way to spend the time with his favorite pony friend.

Discord. "may I have this dance Fluttershy, I have decided to be on my best behavior on this lovely evening."

Fluttershy. "Oh discord, of course I would dance with you."

Discord. "Grand Fluttershy, just grand." Then the two took the dance floor that amazed everyone on how well that both fluttershy and Discord happen to be.

James. "Wow Fluttershy I never knew you were a party animal when you barely show it."

Discord. "There is so much more to Fluttershy and me besides of my kayos magic and her gift of talking to the animals James."

Molly. "I have a feeling that we will know about it into the future Discord."

Everyone was having a wonderful time, and everyone can agree that it was the most beautiful Sparkling Rose dance everyone had ever come to between her on Sodor or even back in Equestria.

Later the doors to Sunset shimmers Room was ready to send her back to her world knowing that her friends would be missing her by now. Everyone was taking their time to say goodbye to her before she leaves.

Sunset Shimmer. "I hope we can meet up with each other again everyone, I had the most exciting even since being part of the world I call home."

Twilight. "And this time you did not have to pony up to solve the problems with Spencer. I am just glad is was over before it could get worse."

Thomas. "Although the many of us still wondered about the dreams we had lately, I hope all that we have seen would not come true. I have Rosie in my life, and to me she is all the lady I need."

Rosie. "I still believe it is something we still need to understand before even something like that will get underhanded."

Sunset. "Well I hope the love you two share will be something worth talking about. After witnessing how strong your love is with each other, I believe your love will last a lifetime even after life."

Thomas. "That I hope so Sunset, I do hope so. Well goodbye Sunset Shimmer, have a safe trip home."

Sunset. "That I will Thomas, so long everyone, and see you later Twilight, I will let you know all the happenings since my return to my world."

Twilight. "Not to worry, I know that we will keep in tough as long you keep writing to me through your journal to me Sunset Shimmer."

Doodle Loo. "Alright Sunset are you ready to return to the world you call home?"

Sunset Shimmer. "Yes I am." Then she turns around and gave one final hug to the friends she made here during her visit to the Island of Sodor. "So long everyone, I promise to keep in touch."

James. "Try and not be a stranger Sunset."

Edward. "You are always welcome back to Sodor when every you wish to come here during your summer break if you wish."

Sunset Shimmer. "I will keep that in mind Edward, Well have fun everyone." Then with the wave of hands goodbye Sunset Shimmer entered the correct door back to her world to the place she calls home once she returned to her room she gave a call to Sci Twi to let her know of her return to their world.

Sci Twi. "Hello this is Twilight Sparkle; how can I help you?"

Sunset Shimmer. "Guess who had made back home Twilight?"

Sci Twi. (gasps) "Sunset Shimmer you are back, but where are you?"

Sunset Shimmer. "I am back home, and I have a lot to tell you and the other girls Twilight, but for now I need to get some shut eye after the dance I attended tonight."

Sci Twi. "Oh of course Sunset, but the other girls and I have a lot of questions for you once we see you tomorrow my friend. "

Sunset Shimmer. "Oh, I bet Twilight, well good night for now Twilight see you in school on Monday."

Sci Twi. "See you then."

Then the two hang up and decided to leave the questions for another day, back on the homestead it was time that everyone made it back home and have a rest after the eventful few weeks everyone had since the arrival of Sunset Shimmer and everything is now back to normal, and everyone can settle down for the night.

Another Valentine's day had come and gone, next time we will see what the next few weeks will have in store for our friends as they continue their journey through school and the next few weeks on the return to Northwestern high School year 2.
