So now what?

Bobby, Peggy, and Tilly were hugging Hank, much to his dismay. Buck gave him a proud smile.

Nancy and Joseph were hugging Dale. John Redcorn let out a smile as Dale cried a bit from joy.

Minh and Connie were also hugging Kahn. Despite the fact that he doesn't like hugging that much, he was crying with joy.

When Bobby, Peggy, and Tilly were finished hugging Hank, Luanne, Lucky, and Gracie ran up to Hank and gave him a great hug, making Hank grit his teeth and his face red.

Cotton just looked at Didi, but didn't hug her. However, he was hugging G.H.

Even though G.H. didn't spend much time with Cotton, he loved his father, though he thought that his father was a bit annoying and a little rude. He was honestly getting tired of him bragging that he killed fifty men.

"Oh I forgot, which one of you is Midway?" Peggy asked.

Mark raised his hoof.

Peggy said, "Before we got on this train, this Princess Luna told me to say that she said hi to you."

Mark blushed. "She did?" He said softly with a small smile.

Cotton noticed this and shook his head with a smile.

"Oh god..." Cotton muttered.

Ladybird came up to Twilight and started to sniff her leg.

"Looks like she's taking an interest in you." Applejack said to Twilight with an amused smile.

"Excuse me." Cotton said as he walked towards Mark.

"Hey Mark?" Cotton asked Mark.

"Yeah?" Mark replied.

"Ya like that Princess Luna?"

Mark blushed. "Uh...well...um..."

Cotton smirked.

Mark sighed. "Well, she is a little...cute?"

"Ya ever met her?" Cotton asked.

Mark thought back on when he first laid eyes on her.



A couple days before Cotton's arrival

Derpy's Home

Mark was busy reading a book while laying on a couch. He can't wait to get a house for himself. He liked Derpy's home, but he desperately needed a home for himself.

"Hey Mark!" Derpy called out. Despite the fact that he uses the name Midway, Derpy was the only one who called him by his real name.

"Yeah, Derpy?" He replied.

"You got a letter." she said as she gave him a letter.

Mark took it and started to read it.

Dear Midway,

Please come to the castle at Canterlot.
There is a train waiting for you.

Sincerely,
Princess Celestia

"Isn't that the white princess gal?" Mark said to himself.

He shrugged and got up.

"Alright Derpy. I'll see ya later."

"Alright." Derpy said with a smile.


Canterlot

Mark whistled at the sights of Canterlot.

What he didn't like were the ponies. Too snobbish. Now he was really glad that he wasn't rich.

He eventually got to the castle. He convinced the guards there that Princess Celestia had sent him.

As he got to the throne room, he saw princess Celestia.

But what really got his attention was Princess Luna, who was standing next to her sister.

Mark was staring at her until Princess Celestia spoke.

"So glad to see you, Mark Walsh."

Mark gasped. "How did you...?"

Celestia smiled. "We know who you are, Mark."

Mark bit his lip. "They know who I am?" he thought. "Does that mean that they know what happened to my frien..."

"Yes." Celestia said with a small sigh and frown. "We know that."

Mark gasped and bowed his head down in shame.

"But don't worry Mark." Luna said, which brought Mark's head up.

"We know that you have a good heart." She said, which made Mark let out a tiny blush.

Luna let out tiny blush when she found out that Mark was blushing.

"We know that you are staying with a friend." Celestia said. "However, me and my sister took the opportunity to buy you a new house."

Mark gasped with joy. "Really!-? Thanks Celestia. Thank you um..."

"Luna," Luna said with a smile.

"Luna huh? That's a cute name." Mark said with a smile.

Luna giggled softly as she let out a blush.

Celestia noticed and let out a small smile.

"Oh and we also want to tell you something else. You are familiar with Cotton Hill, right?" Celestia said.

Mark let out a small surprised look as he nodded.

"Back on Earth, he is dying. However, I asked your god to bring him to Equestria when he dies."

Mark gasped and had a shocked face. "COTTON HILL?-!-?-!" He shouted.

Celestia and Luna nodded.

Mark just stood there. "Wow..." he muttered.

Celestia smiled. "That's all we need to tell you."

Mark sighed. "Alright. Thanks Celestia. Thank you Luna."

Mark bowed as he left.

"He seems like a nice pony, right Luna?" Celestia said.

Luna nodded. "He is nice...and cute." she said.

"Cute?" Celestia said with a raised an eyebrow.

Luna realized what she said and started to stammer.

"Um...I meant...uh...he...ah...um..."

Celestia started to laugh. "Don't worry about it Luna." She said with a smile.

Luna sighed and let out a small smile.



Now

"You called her cute." Cotton said with a blank face.

Mark grinned nervously.

"So what now?" Dale said with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh yeah." Peggy said. "Luna said that she and Celestia bought a new house for each of our families and will be ready in a couple days."

"Celestia bless them both." Dale said with a smile.

"Um...everyone except the six girls." Cotton said. "A word."

As everypony, except the Mane 6, came forward to Cotton, he gave them a stern look.

"Alrighty, look. These horses don't know that we're from Earth. So I'd advise y'all keep yer mouths shut. Alright?" He said in a serious tone.

Everypony around him nodded.

They eventually went back to the Mane 6.

"Alright." Cotton said with a sigh. "Who's staying with who?"

After some discussion, they agreed who's staying with who:

Peggy, Bobby, and Ladybird will be staying with Twilight.

Nancy, Joseph, and John Redcorn will be staying with Rainbow Dash.

Luanne, Lucky, and Gracie will be staying with Pinkie Pie.

Buck and Tilly will be staying with Rarity.

Didi and G.H. will be staying with Applejack.

Minh and Connie will be staying with Fluttershy.

Mark smiled. No pony gets to stay in his home. Just how he likes it.

Cotton sighed. "I don't know about you guys, but I'm going home."

Everypony agreed with him and they all headed home.
