A few days later, after everyone had returned to school, Apple and Briar were talking with Ashlynn in her room.
"What did you two want to talk about?" asked Ashlynn who was sitting on the couch.
"The other day at your party the two of us went to your room after you had not come back after a few minutes," said Briar.
"Did… did you hear anything?" asked Ashlynn who was now worried.
"We heard Raven admit to you that she likes me," said Apple who was blushing while looking down at the floor.
"Apple, please don't hate Raven for this," said Ashlynn who was even more worried now than before.
"Ha, Apple's never hated her, in fact she and Raven have the same feelings for each other," said Briar as she side eyed the blonde princess that stood next to her who had gone an even deeper shade of red.
"You couldn't have said that a little more tactfully?" asked Apple.
"Hang on, you like Raven?" asked Ashlynn who was so shocked that just had jumped up to her feet.
"I have since the day I first met her, I was so surprised because she's completely different than I thought she would be," said Apple.
"She's also way more beautiful than I thought she would be," she said under her breath.
"But she's too afraid to confess to Raven, so we want to ask you for help," said Briar.
"What can I do?" asked Ashlynn.
"Raven will be willing to talk to you about all of this now that she has come out to you, so we'll have you give her information to try and get her to confess to Apple," said Briar.
"What information should I give her first?" asked Ashlynn, who didn't like doing this to Raven, but wanted to help Apple.
"Something that will hit her hard right off the bat," said Briar who was having too much fun with this and it worried the other two.
