After the pillow fight, we all decided to fall asleep early or well not all of us. I tried my hardest to fall asleep but every time my eyes refused to close I was met with the ceiling. I was somewhat mad at everyone and myself. They were all ignoring the fact that we have some killer or something after us, and instead of even trying to solve it they decide to have a sleepover. Although I'm guilty to even agree to it and not speak up about it in the first place. 

"Why did I even agree to this?" I asked myself aloud. Rolling over to lay on my side, I was met with Sunset's face. She looked fast asleep, every time she exhaled the little hair in the middle went up and down. I decided to go upstairs to the kitchen to solve it myself since no one was taking it seriously. I grabbed my phone and crept quietly up the stairs.

Once I arrived to the kitchen, I flipped a light switch the lighting was rather dim but I suppose it would do. Opening my phone, I made a list of people I find suspicious or even a little suspicious. Diamond Tiara, Wallflower, Soarin, Adagio and maybe her gang, Rarity, and Sunset, the list read. It was probably not the best idea to put Sunset down but I find her a little suspicious. She was so quick to defend Adagio, I find it weird since we weren't even that far into questioning her.

"Twilight?" a sleepy sunset walked in. She held her arm over her face to block the light.

"Yeppp!" I quickly took her name out of the list just in case she would come look. "What are you doing up so early?"

"I could ask you the same thing." she chuckled, walking over to the fridge. She bent over and looked through the fridge. "Damn, does all this girl have is whipped cream? I just want a cold bottle of water." she groaned.

"Try the other fridge." I suggested, pointing to a small fridge next to the pantry.

She reached down to open it and grabbed a bottle of water. She threw it up into the air and caught it. "Finally, my throat is so dry. It's really cold down there and I think I may snore oop." she closed the fridge door with her hip and started walking over to the counter I was sitting at. "What are you doing up so early anyways?"

I looked down at my phone and sighed. "Since no one is taking this seriously, I'm trying to solve this thing myself. I'm currently thinking of people who seem suspicious. Also I couldn't sleep."

"Who do you have so far?" she took a big sip of her water.

"I have Diamond Tiara, Wallflower, Soarin, Rarity, And Adag-" before I could finish, she choked on her water. She coughed it all on her shirt, which was light weight so I could see her nipples.. again. I looked at her weirdly.

"Oh shit, almost died." she said flushed, grabbing a paper towel trying to rub her shirt dry. "Also, I know Adagio is mean but I'm sure she'd never go as low to kill."

"How do you know tho? And anyways I never said she was the killer, I was just listing people who I found suspicious. I'm not saying she could be the killer but her alibi was kind of suspicious."

"Can you just say sus? It's shorter and I don't have to stress about trying to spell that word in my head." she said in an annoyed tone, going on her phone.

I continued typing notes into my phone about the people and why I found them Suspicious. I don't think Rarity would ever kill her sister but she did say she envied her sister. She's also the tea account for our school and she made that post about Diamond Tiara. Diamond Tiara is suspicious since she did have that beef with vignette right before she was murdered and not only that but her initials are coincidently TD backwards. Soarin did buy a new car the day she got murdered which I find weirdly coincidental. Wallflower was so quick to turn us in but she wasn't at the party, I guess she's just a good child. And Adagio, she's really intimidating and has a weird obsession with Sunset. Sunset doesn't really seem to care, but she only cares when Adagio is being investigated.

I texted her my notes, but left out the notes about Adagio and her. "Check your phone." I took off my glasses and laid my face on the freezing cold counter. She checked her messages and tried on my glasses while reading them. "You look weird with glasses." I yawned.

"I cannot see clearly but its totally worth it." she smiled. Her smile made me smile, I guess it's contagious. "Also these are good points but you probably shouldn't mention Soarin or Rarity to anyone else, you'll have some people coming at you."

"Mhm.." my voice start to trail off as my eyes were slowly closing.

Sunset noticed I was falling asleep and rushed over to me. "No no no, please don't fall asleep here. If you do that means I'm gonna have to carry you back to the room." she groaned, shaking me violently. "I mean it's not because you're heavy, you're pretty light but I'm just too lazy ugh."

"Okay, okay." I yawned, my eyes barely open. Sunset helped me walk and we turned around. "AHHHH!" We yelled holding onto each other.

It was Maud standing at the doorway. "Boulder was hungry." she said, getting a box of crackers from the pantry and pouring them on the rock.

"Oh." Sunset responded.

"Boulder says goodnight." She stared at us, waiting for a reaction. "Don't be rude, say it back."

"Goodnight Boulder." We said together, our voices colliding. Maud's face looked dead, but it wasn't new since she doesn't show any emotion. She walked back into her room, a trail of crackers following her as she continued to pour them on the rock. Sunset waited to speak until she closed the door of her room.

"Wow, she looked so dead. I'm surprised Pinkie is even related to her." She whispered to me. I was so tired to the point that I just gave her a slight smile. She immediately noticed and we continued to walk back down to the basement. Luckily everyone was still asleep. I laid back down on the blanket in which sunset laid next to me.

"Where should I put your glasses?" She said, taking them off. I turned to the other side reaching for them but instead hold onto sunset's hands. I was so tired and out of it, I didn't even know what I was doing at that point. She put my glasses on a table nearby and looked at me confused. "O-okay. This is totally what friends do. I think." And with that we both fell asleep.
