POV TWILIGHT

- I can't believe it! - I looked stunked at Sunset.

Sunset laughed and made a confirmation sign with her head. We had been talking for half an hour, but it had passed very quickly. Our conversation flowed very well for two people who had fought in the last long conversation they had.

- After this cupcake competition that Pinkie proposed, I was never able to eat a cupcake again - she smiled - I had a stomach ache for about three days.

- With all that glucose in the body was to be expected, I'm surprised that you didn't become diabetic - I laughed.

- I wouldn't let that setback stop me from eating sweets for the rest of my life - Sunset said, confident - I would need more than a thousand cupcakes to bring me down.

- All right then, I'll schedule it with Pinkie for tomorrow - I joked.

- No! - Sunset widened her eyes, but as soon as she saw that I was joking, she disguised it - I mean, I worry about her health, you know? And I also know that she would hate to lose...

- Oh, yes, of course - I rolled my eyes with a smile - but I think it's better anyway, she would probably do an event.

- Pinkie always makes an event - Sunset laughed - but she's good at it.

I agreed while listening to the noise of some people laughing and having fun coming from the first floor of Pinkie's house. Mixed with the riots of the guests, one could hear the loud music, which, no matter how muffled, was well understandable from where we were. At one time or another we would notice the exchange of songs, but our conversation yielded so much that many times the sound is imperceptible.

- She knows how to cheer people up - I smiled - my friends were very happy when they heard about the party.

- And not you? - Sunset asked, kindly and cautiously.

- I stayed too, but it's not an environment I'm used to - I shrugged.

Sunset raised his eyebrow, letting me talk.

- I mean, I've never been out much to parties, only Pinkie's - I admitted.

- So you didn't even have a way to get used to it little by little - Sunset laughed - do you mean that the first times you went to a party were Pinkie's? The most famous, crazy, full of energy and chaos that there could be in the whole city?

- Yeah, I must admit that it was not a very intelligent decision on my part - I smiled on the side.

- Ah, it's not for that - Sunset tried to relieve - it's like going to a war without weapons and still leaving alive.

- It's a valid comparison - I had a weak laugh.

We were silent for a few seconds, Sunset calmly shook his head to the rhythm of the music he played, with his eyes closed and a small smile, almost non-existent. The redhead looked at me, increasing her smile a little.

- But you danced at the party, didn't you? - he said after looking away from mine - I saw you dancing.

- see? - I ran my fingers nervously through my hair.

- I saw it, but you don't have to be nervous - Sunset stopped shaking her head, but had a calm smile - you were dancing well, for those who desperately tried to dance like the people on the way back.

- Was it that bad? - I sighed - I knew I should have trained more at home before I was embarrassed!

- Hey, hey - Sunset interrupted me - I just said you were dancing well.
