The Dance
After what happened at dinner, both Celestia and Discord made their way to make the Gala their own. Having fun, making jokes, causing laughs. What was once a formal event was now being transformed by them to a fun date.
To most it was a rather unfitting sight but to the rest, it was actually adorable and others even engaging talks with the couple of the night and wishing them happiness.
They were also questions present that made both Celestia and Discord blush to the expense of their patrons in regards to their “relations”.
Luna on the other hoof was more than miffed, she was completely full on rage mode to the point her teeth could not be more gritted at that time.
‘I need to do something about these two. They’re ruining everything!’
“Princess?”
“Huh? Oh Raven, what seems to be the trouble?”
“Uhmm, you seem to be a bit stressed, is everything all right?”
‘Oh things are just PERFECT! I COULDN’T BE MORE HAPPIER! IT’S NOT LIKE I WANT TO RIP SOMEPONY’S HEAD OFF!’
“Things are just going perfectly for me!” Luna lied through gritted teeth and a fake smile.
Raven couldn’t help but look away. She knew the Princess was lying, it would be her reaction too if her twin sister did the same thing to her host party.
As her assistant left, Luna made the notion to come up with a plan to get things in track for her Gala. It was tainted with the toxicity of the romance the “new” couple spreading, in Luna’s perspective.
‘What can I do?… I need to do something but what?…’
Her train of thought was interrupted by a sudden entrance of a bat pony guard.
“Your majesty, the dance for the Gala is all ready. The musicians are all here and are ready to perform.”
Luna raised an eyebrow, a sinister smile following shortly after.
“Oh that is just WONDERFUL news then and I think we need to make this special, yes?” A smile was written on her face that said it all.
The Lunar guard couldn’t help but sweat and nod in fear.
“Of course your majesty and uhh… how do we do that exactly?”
She whispered to the guard’s ear. After a salute to his princess, Luna rubbed her two hooves together as her plot began in motion.
A sinister smile was present on her face as she completely forgot of impressing her guests and focused everything on separating her sister from her plus one.
As Luna’s plan was set in motion, Discord and Celestia took the time to enjoy themselves with everything the gala had to offer. From the eating contests at the buffet, continuing with the feeding of the animals in the gardens, to even the occasional pranking in the restrooms made this the best night for both of them,
“Now where are we off to next?” Discord asked as he wiped a tear away from laughing too hard.
“You tell me, you’re the one who’s pulling the strings Discord,” Celestia told him as she giggled.
Discord thought about her reply, not much could be done unless he wanted to lift Canterlot of its foundations or turn the Gala itself to a haunted house. He needed to keep the joy going but make it somehow more “formal” or romantic for both of them
‘Come on old boy, think of something that’ll drift well to these pony ways of wooing a mare.’ He stroked his goatee. Where was his thinking tree?
As Discord rattled his brain and Celestia waited patiently, the lights all went off. Everypony stopped and looked around on what was about to occur.
A booming voice, obviously from a Royal guard came into motion.
“Mares and Gentlecolts! The host of our great and marvelous Gala, our Princess Luna, princess of the night, has prepared a spectacular evening for all of us but as of this moment.”
Everypony tilted their heads, waiting for the special moment their host has prepared for them.
“The very core of our night shall begin for every gala cannot be special without it’s traditional DANCE!”
Everypony trotted excitedly to their respective friends and awaited for the orchestra to begin their song.
Discord witnessed couples holding hooves together. He raised an eyebrow as he had an idea. Celestia on the other hoof was more or less calm as she looked at all of the ponies excited for the dance.
“Uhhmm Celestia?… would you care to have this dance with me?”
Celestia was very taken by this move. Not by the fact that Discord came in like a dashing stallion or a suave prince charming as any mare would wanted to experience but rather the one very fact and nightmare she wanted to avoid.
Throughout her life, Celestia avoided every possibility of her dancing. She was glad there are ponies like Twilight who are just as horrible as she was but she did envy how they have the confidence to show it while she didn't. She did occasionally join this tradition to mingle but only through the sidelines, she couldn’t really express herself that well for somepony of her class. Dancing unprofessionally would rather be unfit for everypony around her.
“Uhhh Discord I uhhmm…. I-I,” she stammered nervously.
Before she could reply, the royal guard from before boomed his voice again.
“And to honor this wonderful and spectacular moment we shall now begin the first dance where a pair will dance first to initiate the actual event itself. No pony would fit more to accomplish this than Princess Celestia and her plus one, Discord!”
Celestia could only gasp in horror as Luna watched from the sidelines with a sinister grin. Her devious plan started its effect and seeing her sister face her fear was all too enjoyable.
“How do you like’em apples?” Luna smiled deviously as she sipped at her drink.
Celestia was as mortified as Discord was at his second defeat and imprisonment. Discord on the other hoof was surprised too but more or less wanted things to be over with. But he couldn’t help but notice Celestia.
“Is everything all right Celestia?”
“I uhh… I just can’t do it,” she tried to walk away as she looked down.
Discord might be a jolly character but given his thousand year life, he knew more than well what that look and reply meant. It reeked of something he was familiar of.
“Celestia, what’s the matter?”
“I just can’t… dance, I’ve never danced before and I hate doing it, especially now that everypony is watching.”
Discord felt her sadness all to well, it was very similar to what he felt when he first walked in to this gala but something else also popped up in his mind in that moment.
He slowly smiled as he grabbed Celestia’s hoof and lead her through the center of the ball room.
“Di-discord! What are you doing?!” She was more scared and was prepared to cry at that moment.
“If you can keep me from leaving the gala because of my fear, then I can make you dance, with or without your fear,” he slowly put his paw on her hoof as his claw held her close.
My heart beats faster
you are stunning
Sorry if I was absent for nearly 80 days, I was away and a lot of things kept me from making good progress on the story, but I was able to formulate this chapter, I hope it won't disappoint but more or less, this came out of my twisted mind 
My deepest apologies for those who taught this story was dead
