It was a night like none other. While I dont recall exactly what happened before it, I do remember plenty of awkwardness when asking Daytime to accompany me to the dance. We spent the next few hours trying on outfits and digging through closets like we like Luna and Celestia did, all those years ago.
When we arrived at the ballroom, we tried out best to blend in, but, its not easy when one is taller than most ponies and when ones hair floats in the air. It was rather difficult to act casual with all the ponies staring. Oh, the scandal! The Queen out with a mysterious pony theyve never seen before, and another alicorn at that!
The music was playing a lovely piece at the time, and it sounded divine. Obviously, we couldnt do anything but try our hooves at dancing. Anypony watching us must have broken down in laughter as we stumbled and stepped on each others hooves. I dont know about Daytime, but I hadnt had the chance to practice in a long time.
Soon after, we left the ballroom for the royal gardens. It was much less crowded there, and the flowers were in bloom. The wonderful scent of roses filled the air and the stars were shining brightly in the night sky that I didnt remember bringing out. We sat down by the lakeside to gaze at the stars. For once that night, it wasnt awkward between us. We talked about politics, gossiped about the latest trends, it was actually fun! I felt close to her, like we were actually sisters, instead of sisters across dimensions. It was like I was with Celestia again
