"Thanks for taking me to your house for awhile, Vice principal Cadence, I just wanna sure Twilight's safe is all". "No problem at all Fluttershy she's
really lucky to have a friend like you, there was that word again and for some unknown reason or maybe just a reason that she wasn't ready to admit it sent a pang
through Fluttershy's heart. and just call me Cadence outside of school I'm not big on titles honestly". You got it Cadence", Fluttershy responded with an easy smile. So
you and Roseluck sure are adorable", Cadence smirked. "Awww thanks, we've been together officially for six months, but we've liked each other since middle school",
Fluttershy dreamily responded. "Awwww that's great well you two certainly came in handy today, I knew Cinch had an unhealthy obsession with reputation but I never
thought She'd actually blame Twilight for losing, but it's my own fault I should've kept a far closer eye on her than I did". "Hey now don't blame yourself, Fluttershy
consoled placing a comforting hand on the older woman's shoulder, Rosie and I don't and I know Twilight certainly doesn't the important thing is we were thankfully
there for her when she needed us the most" "Thanks Fluttershy, Cadence responds with a grateful smile I needed that". "That's what friends are for", Flutter responds
with a warm smile of her own. "I'm getting some steaks for tonight, it's Twilight's favorite plus I figure she could use a little celebration after the day she's had, but do
you have any requests for tonight". "No, steaks actually one of my favorites too, but since you brought it up I did have something I wanted to ask you how much do-",
she's cut off by a light yawn. "Wa.. Cadence did fall asleep in the back of your car again, Twilight groggily asked blushing, this'll be the last time, I promise" "Honey you
said that last time, Cadence reminded chuckling, and I told you that it was completely fine, but if it makes you feel any better you didn't technically fall asleep in my
car". "Wa do you..., she started to say but then realized she was laying on something warmer and was higher then she normally would be turning her head to look at
where she was she was greeted by a gentle wave and an easy smile by Fluttershy, "Well hello there sleepy head", Fluttershy giggle as Twilight stammers apologies while
blushing furiously. As adorable as this was, Fluttershy put a gentle hand on Twilight's back rubbing it soothingly, "Twilight honey it's ok I didn't mind at all, but what I
want to know is if you feel better, a little, she whispers shyly then that's all that matters to me", Fluttershy promises giving her another easy smily, and a reassuring
forehead kiss. "T t thank you", she stammers more. "Well you're more than welcome, now do you think you can tell us what happened back there", she prods gently
with an encouraging smile. "Do I have to, Twilight whimpers hiding in her arms, absolutely not sweetheart I just think that would help you feel better but you can
absolutely wait till you're ready to tell us, we'll both be here for you", Fluttershy promises, continuing to rub her back soothingly as she feels some of her stress melt
away "She's right twi, Cadence smiles, but in the meantime I think a celebration is in order for all of your hard work during the game, so what do you say to steak
tonight?", Cadence asks with a wink and a cheerful grin. In answer, Twilight grows a smile only rivaled by Pinkie on cake day and starts slightly bouncing in her seat,
and to Fluttershy it was the most precious thing she'd ever seen.
