With confirmations from both sides, there still came a moment of silence. Sunset wanted to speak and smooth things out further, but it was all she could do to hold the excitement that brewed in her heart.
It could be anything at this point, and she’d be up for it.
So she interjected when she heard Twilight having just as much trouble forming a coherent suggestion.
“’What should we do together?’ W-Well… ”
It didn’t feel right to suggest a traditional date. That’s what she used to do with Flash, and- well, Twilight was a very different person with different interests. But could she make a date happen in her home, or a library…? Not very likely. Those weren’t geared for dating… but then again, what was? Sunset didn’t know.
But she wanted to say something. She didn’t want Twilight to be left uncomfortable from this. Or have second thoughts. No, she couldn’t let this happen.
“D-Do you want to watch the stars with me?”
She said what came to mind, but was quick to add something-
“We c-could make a picnic out of it. Y’know, like we’d do with the girls- BUT, well… just with the two of us?”
She blushed noticeably at the last sentence. It didn’t affect her dreamy smile though.
... Once again, Sunset was guiding things along, helping, making the best of what was honestly quickly becoming a mess of a situation.
... Not that she was complaining. This would be a much messier situation if she Sunset wasn’t able to offer this sort of help.
As Sunset picked up on where she was going, Twilight couldn’t help but feel embarrassed... even finishing asking something was what Sunset needed to do. She’d definitely need to focus on calming down before she sees her again.
“ ... The... stars, huh? ”
“ Um... well, it is supposed to be a clear night tonight... the stars should be beautiful tonight. That, uh... that sounds like a great idea, Sunset. ”
She didn’t have any plans, anyways... hopefully Spike wouldn’t give her any trouble about it, but she was sure he’d be fine. Besides... Twilight didn’t want to lose this chance.
She’s never been this excited to watch the stars before.
