Today's Horoscope (Virgo): Relationships with others may progress significantly today.

Early Morning

Tonight is the Fall Formal.

Considering everything that's been going on lately, it bothers me that today is also Friday the thirteenth. But hopefully I'm just being superstitious...

When I arrive in the dining room, the girls already gathered there are chatting animatedly about tonight.

Pinkie enters with breakfast. "Hey everybody, don't forget to stop by Sugar Cube Corner after school," she says. "Mr. Cake's gonna pay us all for that weekend we ran the shop."

I'd forgotten all about that...

After School

After school, the six of us who worked at Sugar Cube Corner last month meet up at the gates and head over to Sugar Cube Corner together. Mr. Cake greets us warmly. "Hey kids! Come to get paid?"

"How're the twins?" Twilight asks.

"They're fine," Mr. Cake says. "It's...not easy. Late night feedings, diapers, crying tantrums..."

"I can well imagine," Rarity says.

"Well, anyway...now that things are more or less settled down, we can pay you kids what we owe you. Well, most of what we owe you. I rounded it down a little."

"Most is fine," Twilight says. "We're not greedy."

"Come into the back," Mr. Cake says. He leads us through a back hall into a business office with a safe. He unlocks the safe and removes six stacks of bills, stuffing each into an envelope after counting it. He stands up and hands each of us an envelope. "There you go. Two hundred each."

Whoa. That's...more than I expected, actually.

Applejack's eyes bug out. "That much?!"

"Well, you all put in two full days, and a full day here is a lot of hours," Mr. Cake says. "Wanted to make it a nice round number, and since you aren't actually on the books and I don't have a time sheet for Pinkie for those two days...yeah, two hundred isn't the full pay I owe you, but it's close enough."

I can see Twilight doing the math in her head. She nods. "I don't think any of us will really miss that other fourteen dollars and fifty cents. Thank you very much, Mr. Cake."

"No, thank you for all you did for us," Mr. Cake says. He smiles. "Now, don't you kids have a dance to get ready for?"

"We totally do!" Pinkie declares. "Come on, everyone! Let's get back to the dorm and get ready!"

We thank Mr. Cake again, then return home. An extra two hundred in cash...

Well, for me, it doesn't really mean that much, but for the others, I can't even begin to imagine what's going through their minds right now.

We head back to the dorm, the girls talking animatedly about what they might do with their pay. Once we arrive, I head up to the third floor to get ready. I hope Twilight likes the new cologne I bought. I'm a little nervous about tonight...I've never actually been to a formal dance.

Evening

I've been waiting in the lounge for almost two hours.

Cadance, Shining Armor, and Luna left a while ago. Cadance gave me her keys and asked me to drive the girls to the school.

The girls finally come downstairs, and all I can say is...wow.

Rainbow Dash is the first down the stairs. Of all the possible outfits I could imagine Rainbow Dash wearing, I certainly never would have pictured her in a classic little black dress...and yet, there it is. She's wearing a backless black dress that only goes down to about mid-thigh and shows off a modest bit of cleavage, as well as very dark purple stockings and black pumps. She has on elbow-length black silk gloves and a little gold neckchain. Simple, small gold hoops dangle from her earlobes.

The next one down is Fluttershy. She's wearing a calf-length sleeveless green dress with a pleated skirt; the collar and skirt of the dress are a deep forest green, while the bodice and elbow-length gloves are a bright spring green. Bracelets designed to look like twining ivy are fastened around the tops of her gloves. She wears slippers with low heels that match the skirt of her dress. A large aquamarine butterfly sits upon her chest, with a smaller butterfly ornament of the same color affixed to her hair, holding her bangs out of her face. She's wearing just a touch of makeup.

Pinkie Pie enters next. Her dress consists of a black corset which pushes her breasts up and forward, a two-layered powder blue skirt with a violet sash, sheer black pantyhose, dark blue pumps, and blue sleeve...puff...things that aren't even attached to anything (there's not even anything there for them to attach to!); from these, sheer black sleeves that match her pantyhose extend down to her hands, ending in sort of fingerless...pantyhose...gloves. I gotta admit, I have no idea where she came up with those, but they're kinda sexy. She's also wearing a dark blue velvet choker and dangly earrings.

Applejack is the next girl down. She's wearing a sleeveless, knee-length red dress with a brown suede bodice and a high collar, which has one of those antique cameo brooches pinned to it. Instead of her usual boots, she's wearing high-heeled sandals with red leather straps. She's wearing her hair piled high atop her head, pinned with a ruby and gold hairpin. This may be the first time I've ever seen her without her hat.

Rarity enters behind Applejack. She's wearing a sparkly sky blue dress that looks like something a fairy tale princess would wear to the ball. It's an off-the-shoulder affair with a loose scarf-looking thing that gathers just below her bare shoulders and fastens with a jeweled clasp at her cleavage. The skirt is floor-length but split in the middle, showing off her sexy legs and the shimmery high-heeled sandals she's wearing. Her elbow-length gloves match her dress, and she has a sapphire hair clip in her hair. Her makeup is slightly heavier than usual, but not by much; the most striking addition is the deep purple lipstick she's wearing.

And finally, Twilight descends the stairs. She's wearing a clingy royal purple satin evening gown that's ankle-length, backless, sleeveless, shoulderless, and slit up the right side. The front of the dress is held up by a strap that wraps around the back of her neck, leaving an absolutely incredible amount of cleavage visible. She's also wearing spike-heeled, open-toed slippers that match her dress. A belt made of slim silver hoops rests about her hips, and she's wearing the locket I gave her, as well as a slender, shiny silver bracelet on her left wrist. Small silver star-shaped earrings peek out from behind her hair, which is extra-shiny and extra-sleek. She isn't wearing very much makeup, but what little she's wearing makes her look more beautiful than ever.

I stand up, straightening my jacket. "Wow," I say. "You girls look incredible."

"Why thank you, darling," Rarity says.

Twilight walks over to me, blushing slightly. "You look...really nice," she says.

I take her hand. "You...look amazing. You just went from cute to sexy."

She ducks her head. "Thank you..."

I look around at the other girls. "So, uhh...do you girls have dates?"

The girls shift awkwardly, looking away and coughing or clearing their throats.

"I'm...keeping my dance partner options...open," Rarity says delicately.

"I just wanna have a good time," Rainbow Dash says.

"You know I'm still on the hunt," Pinkie complains.

"I'm...just going to watch everybody else," Fluttershy says meekly.

"Ah'm jes' goin' t' be goin'," Applejack says.

Well, that killed the mood really fast...

"Okay, well...I'm driving us all over, so...let's get going."

We all head out to the SUV. It takes the girls a bit longer to get in without messing up their dresses. After the short drive to the school, we all head for the gym. Twilight clings to my arm.

The lights are dimmed and colorful spotlights are roaming around the room. Vinyl Scratch is already playing a mix of popular songs.

Cadance and Shining Armor wander over to our group as we enter. Coach's eyes bug out as he sees Twilight. "Wow, you all look incredible!" Cadance says.

She doesn't look so bad herself in a white-and-lavender gown.

I look at Twilight. "So...wanna dance?"

She smiles and nods. I lead her out onto the floor and we start dancing. With a flush, she says, "I might have to sit out any really fast songs. I'm, umm...a little loose in this thing..."

No kidding.

At that moment, a slow dance starts. I take Twilight into my arms and gently sway with her in a small circle.

"You smell nice," she says, leaning into me.

We spend about a half hour on the dance floor. A faster song starts, and we stake out a small table to rest at. I head over to the refreshments table to get us punch.

As I'm headed over to the punch, I look around the gym. Most of the guys are either dressed like me or wearing slacks and dress shirts. The girls are wearing a variety of different dresses in all styles and colors.

Out of the corner of my eye, I notice Snips leaning against the wall near the back exit. He's wearing one of those trashy black T-shirts with a tuxedo print front and a top hat. I don't see Snails anywhere...

"Enjoying yourself?" a voice purrs from behind me.

I turn around and find myself face-to-face with Sunset Shimmer. She's wearing a sparkly magenta evening gown which is slit high in the front and has a diamond window cut out of the midriff, baring her navel and most of her stomach.

"Don't think for a minute your little girlfriend is going to be Princess," Sunset Shimmer says. "That crown is all mine."

I roll my eyes and walk away. I'm not giving that bitch the time of day.

I return to Twilight with two cups of punch. She looks worried. "What did Sunset Shimmer want?"

"The usual," I say. "Bragging, taunting..."

Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash join us. Pinkie looks upset, and is dabbing at her chest with a napkin.

"What happened?" Twilight asks.

Pinkie lets out a disgusted snort. "Well, I scored a dance with this cute guy, but...he started drooling on my boobs."

"Eww!" Twilight says.

I roll my eyes. "This surprises you?" I ask.

"No, but it's still gross!"

"You gotta stop flashin' your tits all over the place, Pinkie Pie," Rainbow says.

We all stare at her.

"I mean on purpose!" Rainbow adds, face flaming.

A few minutes later, Twilight and I get up and dance again. We dance through two slow songs and four pop songs, then sit down again. This time, Applejack joins us. "You two look like you're havin' fun," she says.

"We are," Twilight says, smiling at me.

Two fast songs and one slow song that we decide to sit out later, Principal Celestia takes the stage. "Your attention, please," she says. "It is now time to announce the winner of this year's Fall Formal Princess."

"Good luck," I whisper to Twilight, taking her hand.

"The winner of the coveted Fall Formal crown is...Twilight Sparkle!"

The crowd breaks into applause. Twilight gasps, hands flying to her mouth. "I won?" she squeaks.

"Come on up, Princess Twilight!" Celestia calls.

I help Twilight up and escort her to the stage. Luna brings out a box, from which Celestia removes a small, gaudy tiara encrusted with glitter and rhinestones. She places it upon Twilight's head. "Congratulations, Princess. And now, we'll have the Fall Formal Royal Dance, led by the Princess and her partner of choice!"

Twilight receives another round of applause, and I guide her out into the center of the floor, where room is made for us. A spotlight shines on us, and a slow, soft song plays. We dance, and are soon joined by other couples.

This song lasts for several minutes. After it ends, the faster, more popular songs resume. Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity crowd around us.

"Congratulations, Twilight!" Pinkie says.

"You rock, Twi," Rainbow says, grinning.

Rarity extends a hand to Twilight. "Well, I lost, but...you deserve your victory. No hard feelings, I assure you."

Twilight smiles and pulls Rarity into a hug. The other girls pile in on them, and a group hug ensues. I steer clear of it, not trusting my hands with that much female flesh...

When the group breaks up, Applejack looks around, frowning. "Hey, anybody seen Fluttershy?"

"I saw her headed towards the back a while ago," Rarity says. "Haven't seen her since."

Pinkie pulls out her phone and texts Fluttershy. She stares at it, waiting.

"She might be in the restroom," Twilight says.

"I'll go look for her," Rainbow says. "You guys get back to the party."

An hour and a half later, the dance is starting to wind down. About a third of the students have already left, and more are headed for the exit. Many come over to us to congratulate Twilight before they leave. We've taken a lot of pictures with a lot of our fellow students, not to mention our friends.

Rainbow Dash runs up to us. "I found Fluttershy," she says. "She's hiding in the bathroom in the science wing."

Twilight gasps. "What's wrong?"

"She won't say," Rainbow says with a shrug. She looks around. "Looks like the dance is just about over, anyway."

I check the time on my phone. "Yeah, it's...getting pretty late."

As if on cue, the music dies, and Vice-Principal Luna takes the stage. "Thank you all for coming out tonight. We hope you've had a wonderful evening. As it's getting late, we're now going to play one last slow dance. Take care on your way home, students."

A slow song starts up. Twilight and I dance, surrounded by a few straggling couples and some random hookups. After it ends, our little group gathers at the entrance to the gym. Apparently, Rainbow Dash coaxed Fluttershy out of the bathroom during the last dance, because she's waiting there too. She looks upset, and her mascara is running.

"What happened?" Twilight asks her.

Fluttershy shakes her head and wipes her eyes and nose.

We all look at one another in concern.

Fluttershy sniffles. "I...I just shouldn't have come," she says. "I didn't really...enjoy myself...as much as I thought I would..."

Pinkie Pie pats her on the shoulder, frowning. I sigh. "Let's go home."

Late Night

As soon as we enter the dorm, the girls all start heading for their rooms. Twilight, however, stops me at the foot of the stairs. "Umm..." She ducks her head, blushing. "Is...is it okay if I come to your room?"

It's strange of her to suddenly ask...

She digs her toe into the floor. "I just...want to be alone with you. For a little while. Right now." She looks up at me shyly. "Alone."

Is she...?

I smile, take her hand, and lead her upstairs. At the door to my room, I take her by the shoulders, lean in, and kiss her gently. She wraps her arms around the back of my head and kisses me back, clumsily but with urgency.

I open the door and lead her inside.

Once I turn on the lights and close the door, Twilight removes her shoes, then walks over and turns down the bed before sitting on it. She pats the spot on the bed beside her; I take off my jacket, drape it over the back of my desk chair, and sit down.

Twilight looks nervous. "Umm...do you remember...what we were talking about last night?"

Last night... "Yeah," I say.

Twilight looks at me. She's trembling. "All night long...I felt like my breasts were going to spill out of this dress, and everybody would see..." She swallows. "You'd see..." She wrings her hands in her lap. "And...I started thinking...if it happened when it was just you and me, alone..." She blushes scarlet. "I...maybe wouldn't...mind so much." She ducks her head, looking up at me through her bangs. "I don't think I'm ready to...to make love to you," she says, "but...I think I want you to...to touch me."

Oh my God. This is happening.

Twilight fumbles with the front of her dress. After what feels like forever, it falls away, revealing her bare, pert breasts. I reach out hesitantly. With a nod from her, I cup her right breast in my hand, gently kneading it. She draws in a hissing breath, shivering, but makes no move to pull away.

I take hold of Twilight's other breast, and for the next several minutes, I fondle her, pinching her erect nipples between my thumbs and forefingers and tweaking them. She gasps and squeaks each time I give her nipples a good twist.

I let my right hand fall to her lap and spread the slit in her skirt, rubbing her thigh. I glide my hand along the inside of her thigh as I continue to fondle her breast. I lean in and kiss her. She wraps her arms around me, pressing her bare torso against me. She squeezes her thighs together around my hand, rocking back and forth.

After about a half hour of this, I can tell Twilight's getting sleepy on me. I want...I need so much more from her right now, but...she's not ready. "Hey," I say. "You're about to fall asleep."

"Huh?" She looks at me, then blushes. "S-sorry. I...I like what you're doing...I really like it. I'm just...tired."

I kiss her gently. "Maybe you should fix your dress and head to your room?"

"Uh-uh," she says, shaking her head. She stands up and sheds her dress, hanging it up in my closet. Now all she's wearing are her panties, her jewelry, and her Fall Formal Princess crown. The latter, she puts on my desk. She slips into my bed, then pats the sheets next to her.

I take off my shoes and my shirt, then slide into bed next to my almost naked girlfriend. I wrap my arms around her and hold her against me as she pulls the covers over us. "Goodnight, Twilight," I say.

"Goodnight, Flash," she says.
