Nightfall woke up. He remembered yesterday and his time spent with Sapphire. Even as he got his shop ready, he found his mind slowly wandering to her. He wanted to hate himself, because they had only met yesterday...

~

Sapphire awoke in a stupor, shook her head and realized where she was.

"Was last night real? Was yesterday real? Oh I hope it was!"

She displayed a large grin on her face, laid back down and hugged her pillow.

She had met a boy yesterday.

And not just any boy but an alicorn, a handsomely, mysterious alicorn.

And he liked her back! It was only one day!

One night. One moment...

"Ahhh" she sighed

It was a pleasant thought.

"I wonder what he has planned today?" she questioned as she trotted to the bathroom

"Oh my stars!" she exclaimed in horror, "I look a fright! Perhaps I should shower and prepare for my day before I wonder about anyone else's."

She showered quickly and went to the kitchen to fix some breakfast or at least tea.

"Perhaps I should call him and ask about his day today?"

"Oh no you don't! You will not act as if chivalry has died! Be the lady your mother raised you to be and wait for him to call. But never let on that you were waiting!"

"Ahhh." she sighed exasperated, "I guess I should start unpacking some things."

And she got to work.

His shop was soon ready, but it seemed early enough that no one would be by too soon. He sighed. She had given him her number, yet there was a feeling inside that wanted him to hold back and not call her yet. Besides, what would he say?

He ignored that thought and dialed her number, planning on asking her how she thought of last night and then letting the conversation go from there.

~

"Ugh! why did I pack this hideous thing?"

She held up a blue and green sweater that she hadn't worn in years.

Something her mother packed surely.

Just then the phone rang and she jumped to her hooves.

"Oh my! It must be him! It must be him!"

She took a deep breath when she got to the phone and answered it smoothly.

"Hello." she cooed

"Sapphire darling!"

"Oh no."

She deflated her lungs into an exasperated sigh.

"Hello mother..." she said sounding rather annoyed.

Their conversation lasted a few minutes, filled with the usual update; was she eating, what was she doing, did she go out, etc.

She avoided telling her mother about Nightfall. She would have freaked out over nothing and over reacted and asked a million questions...

Suddenly, as if sent from heaven, the second line started beeping.

"Oh mother that's the other line. It might be the fashion magazine I applied to earlier this week. I really must get it."

She felt bad lying to her mother, but she knew it had to be Nightfall for sure!

"Oh alright darling I'll let you go, good luck love! Your father and I love you!"

"Love you too Mama, I have to go now. Bye!"

She clicked over and tried her greeting again.

"Hello." she cooed in her most elegant British accent.

"It must be him. It must be him."

~

Her voice. When she greeted, he almost forgot to reply.

"Hey, Sapphire!"

Her voice was way more elegant than his. He knew this and wondered if he was even in her league. But he wasn't going to just leave her because he 'wasn't deserving' or crap like that.

"I was just calling like you asked. Did you sleep well last night..?"

~

His voice sounded so manly and brutish..So unlike her father and the colts she had tried to match her with.

She loved it.

"Oh hello Nightfall dear. Yes I slept rather well last night, thank you for asking. I trust you slept well also?"

She wanted to sound as elegant and beautiful as possible to hopefully evoke the thought of her face in his mind and maybe he might want to see her today.

"You are conceded and I can't take you anywhere."

She giggled internally at the thought.

"I'm just confident, that's all."

~

The power of her voice was incredible.

"I did. Thanks for asking!"

What to do, what to do...

"If you aren't doing anything to day, I can show you some good waterfalls just outside of Canterlot, and then maybe we can go to a movie tonight."

Oh, please say yes...
