Family
Moonlight bathed his face, yet another thing to add to his lack of sleep. He rolled over for the umpteenth time, but one fact was obvious, sleep would be a long time in coming, and his wife was to blame. He closed his eyes once more, praying for the silence from his loving wife to last, he stayed quiet, eyes shut, and waited in vain for the land of sleep to claim him. Finally, just as he was once again on the brink of dreams… it came, sounding painfully loud to his sensitive ears. A sound that could drive a even him up a wall, if heard constantly within the hour. He clenched his paw and claw and rolled back over to his previous position before, and squinted in the darkness at the figure that lied next to him, his lovely wife. Then that annoying sound came to his ears again.
"Would you please stop sighing? It's giving me a headache." He rubbed his temples trying to ease the tension. His pink haired angel turned on her side, and stared at him with her beautiful sky blue eyes that were filled with concern. He immediately regretted his harsh words. It was a wonder at what this pony could do to him, with just a simple look.
She lowered her eyes then looked back up at his face. He was not wearing his mask. She had forbid him to wear it around the house. She had said he was the most beautiful creature to ever roam the earth, and that he was perfect in all ways, that alone had brought tears to his eyes. He loved his wife to the heavens; he didn't know what he would do without her.
"I'm sorry Discord, it's just that I'm so worried and the thunderstorm that's coming might frighten her and-
"There in no need to worry, dear, all is fine." He said as he tried yet again to get in a comfortable position, so far he had failed.
"Maybe I should-
"No, dear, she is fine, believe me. She is perfectly fine." He drew her closer to him, spooning her figure against his chest. He nuzzled her neck tenderly, than traveled up into her glorious waves, enjoying her scent; it enchanted him into another world, one full of music and beauty.
She gently laid her hoof on his arm, begging without words, to let her go and tend to the reason of her worries. He growled and pulled her even closer, and mumbled something in her hair.
"Hmm? What did you say?" She asked with a puzzled look on her face. He mumbled the foreign words again from her hair.
She grew irritated and turned over so she could somewhat face him. "Discord, I can't hear what you're saying, speak up."
He shifted closer, earning her body to sink beneath his muscular one.
He sighed. ' Blast, now she had him doing it!' He thought inwardly.
He lifted his face from her enchanting waves, and repeated his words.
"You worry too much. You need to stop, or you're going to get wrinkles before you know it." He said with a lazy tone, before diving back into her luscious hair, groaning in delight of the softness pressed against his scarred side of his face, it was heaven to him.
She was not at all convinced. "But it's thundering now outside and she might be frightened and the lightening might break through the window, or something dreadful will happen." She had now found that fidgeting with her nightgown was more interesting then looking up into the ruby red eyes that were intensely staring at her. He sighed again and propped himself up on one elbow and raised an eyebrow.
"Well as far as I can see, that won't be happening. It's not her who's fussing, but my lovely wife, who at the moment is worrying over nothing. Besides, if anything bad was to happen I would know, because I have acute hearing. I know exactly what's going on. Would you like me to put it into details?"
Fluttershy shook her head and sighed, which made Discord groan and flop onto his stomach, with his face buried in his pillow, and his fists clutching the sides of it, trying to calm his nerves. Sometimes his wife could be very frustrating. She huffed and turned away from him, as the silence came between then once again. After a couple of minutes she voiced her thoughts.
"I really think I should go check on her. I just have a bad feeling, and it won't go away." Thankful she finally had gotten to finish her sentence without him interrupting her.
"You checked on her half an hour ago. If she needed tending too, she would let us know, no doubt about it. That's why they call it wailing, it's in the form called whining, which is exactly what you are doing. Now stop worrying, everything is alright, trust me." Her eyes widened a fraction before she playfully slapped his arm, earning a grunt in response.
She huffed again, and threw the covers off of her, but just before her hooves touched the cold hard wood floor, a loud crackling boom shook the room. Fluttershy squealed and jumped onto Discord's surprised form, who grunted rather loudly as her knee had 'accidentally' marked score with his unprotected groin.
She brought a hoof to her mouth trying to act astonished, but trying to hide her laughter. "Oh, Discord, I'm so sorry, it's just I'm so scared, and I'd feel better if I had Melody in my arms." She pleaded with her big blue eyes, and no creature on the face of the earth could have resisted that look, no matter how hard they tried, not even the Phantom of the Opera.
In the flash he answered her with a passionate kiss that surprised her. She placed her arms around his neck, bringing him closer, and he did the same. Their bodies pressed together, his tongue sought entrance through her soft lips, she obliged willingly, and did not hesitate to part them, the thunderstorm forgotten. Just as things were starting to heat up, they were rudely interrupted by the main focus of Fluttershy's worries.
A wail reached their ears. They both sighed. The passion between them faded into the night. 'Oh, the joys of being a parent.' Thought Discord, his wife had won this round. Fluttershy gave him a smile and he just grunted.
"Ha, I was right."
Discord just rolled his eyes, and turned over. Trying to block her out.
"Happy you got your way." He said from his side, not looking at her.
"No, not quite."
He looked over his shoulder and raised an eyebrow.
"Hm?"
She grabbed his arm, and whispered in his ear. "You're coming with me. Melody won't be a happy baby unless both her parents are present."
"Fine, then after that we go to sleep….or did you have anything else in mind?" He playfully added, but she ignored him.
"Well, we still have to introduce her to someone." She said, ignoring what he said just a few minutes ago.
He let it go and then added. "And exactly who would that be?" An eyebrow raised in question.
She smiled and placed his large paw on her abdomen. His eyes went wide as saucers. He looked up at her, then back down at where his paw rested on the small of her waist. He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came, he was too stunned at this new discovery.
She laughed at his expression, and pulled him from the bed, beckoning for him to follow her.
"Come we must go and get Melo-
He silenced her with a passionate kiss that was full of hunger. All that was needed to be said was through that kiss, and then came the unfortunate loud wail sounded though out the house.
One thing was clear. Melody was not happy, and neither was her daddy. But nevertheless they were one big happy family.
Discord had finally found his peace of happiness, his daughter and his wife. Oh how dear they were to him. His. His to protect and cherish for all of eternity and beyond. That brought a smile to his face, as he looked down at his own flesh and blood. Small chubby hooves reached up to touch the strong paw that rested on the cradle's edge. He tenderly reached down and stroked the soft cheek. Joy leaped in his heart. His daughter, his own flesh and blood. He had been grateful she took after her mother in appearance, a beautiful pony with a butter cream coat, hair as black as night so like his own, eyes the same ruby red as her father and small wings peaking from her back. When she grew older he would teach her to sing and she would be just as amazing and beautiful as her mother.
Fluttershy leaned down and picked up the small gurgling bundle. Discord then drew his family into his strong embrace, and buried his face between them, happy that he had finally gotten the one thing he had longed for his entire life. A loving family, that loved him in return, and a new one on the way. What more could he ever ask for? He had it all.
As a strike of lightening brought life into the room, he looked up towards the heavens, and closed his eyes in blissful happiness and smiled. Yes indeed… his prayers had been answered and now he could relish in the happiness of having a loving family for a lifetime.

Thank you for both the Phantom of the Opera (loved the play but loved your version better
) and this! Its so cute how Discord acts like a spoiled child who wants to cuddle (or just get some sleep 
) But there is one thing that bothered me at the end of POTO 
.... there was a mention of Discords mom loving him and not wanting to give him up and how Discord lost his memories of his childhood (damn carnie ponies! 
)... ahem 
anyway i was wondering is it possible to make a short of him finding his mom and the truth 
PLEASE?? 
ok this was a sweet one shot to the other story. its great
also i really REALLY want this universe explored more. i may not get my wish but i am happy with both of these stories! :D
So sweeeeeeeet!
Harmony, ehh, Melody Is better!

For some odd reason I thought your profile picture was pony Discord
I'm a terrible person but I imagine Melody at school when she is older, like kindergarten age, and the teacher tells everybody to draw their family. I think Melody would consider Rarity, Rainbow, and Shortround family. She draws everybody accurately so here is the conversation I imagine the teacher and Melody have when the teacher sees her picture:
Teacher: What have you drawn?
Melody: My mommy, *points to Fluttershy* my daddy, *points to Discord* and the rest of my family, Rarity, Shortround and Rainbow Dash!
Teacher: Oh um. Why did you draw your daddy like that? Do you not like him?
Melody: No, that's what he looks like!
Teacher: Really? What about this one. *points to Rainbow Dash*
Melody: Oh that's Rainbow Dash! She looks like that too!
Teacher: Ooh okay then.
