Chapter Text
Twilight had came in with some articles of clothes, the be dinging from her opening the door.
It shut as she herd Rarity and Sweetie Bell arguing.
"Your going to be late!" Rarity said quickly.
Sweetie Bell groaned as she pushed away from Rarity. "Stop it! Your going to mess up my shirt.
Rartiy moved to clean her face. "Maybe if you'd stop squirming we wouldn't have this problem!"
Sweetie Bell had finally pushed away as she bumped into Twilight.
"Oof!- oh! S-sorry!" She said quickly as as she looked up.
"Twilight!" Sweetie Bell said with excitement.
"Hello Sweetie Bell." She said with a warm smile as Rarity covered her mouth. "Oh gosh- I am so sorry Princess Twilight let- let me help you!"
Twilight shook her head. "Oh no it's quite alright, you aren't giving your big sister trouble right Sweeite bell?" She said patting her head.
Sweetie Bell shook her head. "No!"
Rarity hissed. "Yes! You are!"
Sweetie Bell stuck her tongue out as Rarity looked over to the clothes Twilight was holding.
"I didn't even know you got back into town Darling! Haha how was Cloudsdale?" She asked as she came over.
"It was great! I almost died, but Rainbow caught me before I fell."
Rarity rolled her eyes. "She's a reckless person-"
Twilight smiled a bit. "No.. actually- she was really helpful while I learned to fly."
Rarity was surprised. "Intresting, ah- anyways what can I do for you Twilight?"
"Well- alot of my clothes they can't be fixed, soo... I need them to be altered!"
Rarity gave a hum. "Right, well- I have to walk Sweetie Bell to school, can you return back in an hour?"
Twilight perked up a bit as Sweetie Bell spoke up. "I'm old enought to walk by myself Rarity!"
"No no! With that stunt you just pulled this morning I do not trust you!"
Twilight placed the clothes on the counter.
"How about, I walk Sweetie Bell to school? I really really need these to be altered because I have a meeting with the other Princesses in a few days or so."
Rarity clapped her hands. "Right, oh thank you Twilight, I just- I'm so busy with all these influx of new clients from Manehattan, just so much is going on-"
Twilight chuckled.
Sweetie Bell seemed to get happy. "Oh my gosh!"
Twilight smiled. "Come along now Sweetie Bell, let's leave Rarity to her works, and just maybe I'll get you some snacks on the way to school."
Rarity smiled as Twilight walked with Sweetie Bell out of the shop as Sweetie Bell asked Twilight about being a Princess.

Rarity looked through the clothes and put her glasses on as she got to work to alter the article of clothes for Twilight.
She decided on a sweater first, measuring some lines for Twilight's wings, lining them with chalk as she hummed.
She soon took a small knife, cutting a slit, using her magic to pick a needle and thread of a similar color, applying purple fabrics on the inside and sewing the fabric in.
She moved to see what she was doing, sewing a stitch that wouldn't bother the wings on Twilight.
After about 20 minutes the first article of clothing was done.
One down roughly 20 more shirts, sweaters, and coats to go.
Rarity had gone to turn some low tunes on, moving back to her desk.
The day was filled with meeting clients, talking about new designs, and overall running her small buisness. After a while a certain someone had been on her mind.
She decided to take a break. She only had 4 more articles of clothing to go, so she moved towards her phone dialing a number.
It rang for a moment before a soft voice had spoken.
"Hello?"
"Hello Fluttershy, are you busy?" Rarity asked.
Fluttershy giggle. "You caught me at a good time actually, I had just finished feeding the bunnies."
Rarity smiled. "Is that so.. how was your day?"
"It was rather great actually! I was just talking with Apple Jack about the bats that are bothering her farm again, I coaxed them out with apples." She laughed.
Rarity laughed with her. "Oh, aren't you a good friend, say uhm..." Rarity had paused she took a coil of the phone around her finger.
"I was thinking... would you like to accompany me to a party?"
"A party? I don't know... you know I don't do well with Parties."
"Oh please please Fluttershy? I promise it would be worth your time!"
Fluttershy smiled. "Oh.. well you know what, I have a free schedule, a little time away from Evergreen wouldn't be so bad." She said into the phone.
Rarity covered the phone as she pumped her fist up. "Yes!"
She returned back to the phone.
"Your such a sweetheart, well the night before the party would you like to go out to eat? A new restaurant has opened up a Ponyville I'd really like for you to accompany me."
"Oh I'd love too, when?"
"Ahh uhm- give me one moment okay?"
"Mhm!"
Rarity placed the phone down as she moved to find her notebook of dates and opening it. She picked the phone back up.
"This Friday, we can go out this Friday! I can help you with your dress?"
"Oh that sounds great- honestly- I mean do you want me to go with you?"
Rarity chuckled. "I wouldn't have called if I didn't wanna ask you to the party, Fluttershy."
"Ah.. well- I'm glad I'm your first option."
Rarity could only smile. "Darling you'd be my first and only option."
Something could be herd in the background a loud crash.
"Oh dear! Rarity, I- I uh have to go.."
Rarity gave a small sigh. "That's fine my Darling, I'll call you later yes?"
Fluttershy smiled. "Yes! I'll be waiting. Angel don't do that!" She shouted.
"Talk to you soon darling." She hung it up and placed a hand on her chest as she sighed out with bliss.
Twilight had been leaning on the counter. Rarity had just noticed. She took her needle out and pointed it at Twilight.
"How much did you hear of that?" She said low.
Twilight gave a smile.
"All of it, you've got a crush huh!"
Rarity growled out. "I don't have a crush! I don't have time for a silly crush."
Twilight shrugged. "I mean- I'm kinda surprised it's Fluttershy of all People, what made you like her?"
Rarity gave in. "I- Oh gosh.. I have no idea how it started.. maybe it was the first couple of phone calls we had give eachother." She said sighing out and holding her chest.
"I'm due for a party and I just- I had an extra guest ticket. Who better to bring then the one I talk to almost on a daily basis!" Rarity said with happiness.
Twilight smiled. "She is a great fit. Won't lie to you about that."
"Mhm- oh! I finished all your alterations, simple enough as is." She handed them over.
"Just let me know if you want the readjusted."
Twilight examined all of them. "Gosh, your a lifesaver Rarity! How much do I owe you?"
"Oh you don't owe me anything dear! This one is on the house."
Twilight looked up. "No.. is it because of my status?" She asked. "Be honest."
Rarity quickly shook her head. "Oh heavens no! It's mainly to keep you silent about my "date" with fluttershy and well- for taking Sweetie Bell to school, that's enough pay for me." She smiled.
Twilight eyed her before nodding. "I'm glad I could be over service, thank you so much really Rarity."
"Darling this is just a small price to pay, your a really dear friend."
The two finally finished their chat then after that, Twilight hugged Rarity goodbye going her separate way.

The day had finally came for Rarity and Fluttershys little date, Rarity couldn't stop thinking about it, she was excited, scared, nervous. But all in a good way.
Fluttershy had made it to Raritys shop walking into the front door.
Rarity lifted her head. "Oh! Darling my gosh!" She said coming over her arms stretched out. "You made it!"
Fluttershy hugged back. "Hello to you to Rarity." She rubbed her back as Rarity pulled away smiling.
"I am so excited for our little weekend together! Gosh so much to be done, so little time." She said with excitement. "Come along we mustn't waist time I'd like you to try on some dresses while you talk to me about what happened on Wednesday!"
Fluttershy laughed as Rarity dragged her along.

Fluttershy nodded.
"Gosh, they got into the snacks? Such naughty little animals I must say."
"I mean, they like them- specially made by Pinkie, but now I must order more treats for them."
Rarity leaned over zippering the red dress up as she moved away.
"I don't mind helping you my darling."
Fluttershy turned around to face Rarity.
"Oh that wouldn't be necessary, Pinkie said she'd replace them without charge!"
Raritys mouth fell open looking at Fluttershy in the slightly skin tight red dress, the curve of her legs, the way her wings folded nicely with the dress, and the overall look just made Raritys heart flutter.
"Oh..- oh my "
Fluttershys heart sank. "W-what.. did- did I ruin it?"
Rarity quickly awnsered. "No! What no my darling, you didn't ruin the dress you just- you look so beautiful- no drop dead gorgeous!"
Rarity quickly covered her mouth as Fluttershy blushed. "You.. you really think so?"
Rarity had taken a moment before she slowly nodded.
"I.. I know so.."
