You wave and make a beeline for the door before she has a chance to apologize again. Phew! That was like walking a knife-edge. Keeping secrets is hard. You make a short stop at the town florist on the way back. Roseluck, the mare that ran the shop, was one of the nicest ponies you knew, and her eyes lit up when you opened the door. You'd suspected that she was sweet on you, but you'd never seen her with other customers so you didn't know for sure. Either way it wasn't something you thought about any longer. With a bit of sobered enthusiasm she helps you pick out the perfect flowers to compliment Dash's coat and you get back to your apartment as quickly as possible. You didn’t want to risk running into any other ponies you knew because you were running short on time if you wanted to get things set up before Dash got back.
