The Dark Side of the Rainbow · 4:31pm Nov 10th, 2013
The crickets played their mysterious symphony as the owls quickly joined them. Both bands played the melody of the night for their princess, directing them like an orchestra director. The moonlight poured through my windows, casting light upon my bedroom. Once again, I found myself unable to sleep; countless times had I woke up in the middle of the night because of my asthma, but this time was different. This time, I was so excited I couldn’t bring myself to close my eyes.
All my senses were focused on the mare sleeping beside me, our bodies entangled like a pair of vines. I could feel her warm breath upon my face, her soft wings enveloping my body, my hooves holding her body, not wanting to let her go. I had waited too long for this moment, but in the end, I finally reached the true happiness I always looked for.
I pressed my ear against her chest, listening to the rhythm of her hearth. I would’ve never thought that the fastest pegasus of Equestria could have such a calm heartbeat. It reminded me of the lullabies my mother used to sing when I couldn't sleep. I raised my head, looking straight at her face as I hugged her tight. I noticed how, slowly but steadily, our hearts started beating together. My heart started to follow hers, and thus, both of our hearts became a single one in the process.
