Things That Go Unf In the Night [CLOP]

View Online

A few weeks after we got together, Twilight dragged me to Canterlot to spend a weekend at her parent's house. As I took our bags off the train, I watched her greet her family eagerly — though most of that time was spent looking at her curvaceous flanks.

I walked over, bags in hand, and waited patiently for the greetings to come my way. Night Light, Twilight's father, was the first to extend a forehoof to me. I shook it vigorously and soon found myself being kissed on the cheeks by Twilight Velvet, Twilight's mother — though she pretty much ordered me to call her 'Velvet.'

Pleasantries aside, Night Light and Velvet led the way to their spacious manor house. Within seconds of getting inside, the bags had been unceremoniously dumped in a cupboard and I had thrown myself onto the couch, to which Twilight giggled.

"Oh, Geo," she said. "You can't be that tired."

"Oh, but I am." I feigned a yawn. "I've been up since six forty-five this morning... I'm still not used to these early days."

Twilight glanced at her parents. "He started work late back home, so he usually slept in until noon." she poked me with a forehoof. "Though you'd think that I'd have had him well trained by now."

I sat upright. "Don't start with that, Twilight," I said. "Because we both know how much you've taken to sleeping in lately — especially after we've... well, you know."

Twilight blushed as Night Light cleared his throat. "I know what you mean as well," he said sternly. "And I just want to tell you both right now that there won't be any of that in this house. I come from a very traditionalist family, and I don't approve of doing that before you are married. So, to get that point across, the two of you will be sleeping in separate rooms for the duration of your stay."

"Okay, Dad." Twilight sighed. "No funny business, we get it." She turned to me and mouthed a quick 'Sorry.'

"You have my word, Night Light," I said. "I solemnly swear that I will keep my man parts away from your daughter while I am here."

Twilight facehoofed, though Night Light seemed satisfied and nodded. "Glad to hear it, Geo," he said. "Now, Twilight, let us get dinner started, shall we? I'm sure your mother could use the help."

Twilight didn't say anything as she followed her father into the kitchen — though she did slug me in the gut as she passed by.

***

After a hearty dinner of pasta and garlic bread, followed by an evening of conversation and games, it was time for bed. True to his word, Night Light put Twilight and I in separate rooms. She was in her old room, while I was in Shining Armour's — who was away on holiday with Cadence in Manehatten.

But as the lights went off across the house, plunging it into darkness, I already had an idea forming in my mind. I waited for half an hour, just so I could be sure that everypony was asleep, before I finally decided it was safe to make my move.

I crept out of bed and slowly opened the door to my room. Poking my head out, I scanned the darkened corridor for any sign of movement. Happy that there was nopony around, I slunk down the hall, avoiding the creaky floorboards.

I opened the door to Twilight's room, where I could barely make out her sleeping form in the gloom. I slowly walked over to the bottom of the bed and climbed in, inching my way upwards until I was at her waist, then kissed her on the nose and grinned.

"Hey, beautiful," I whispered. "I know I told your dad I'd keep my dick out of you — but if memory serves me correctly, I didn't say anything about keeping my hands to myself, if you catch my drift."

With those words I gently parted her hind legs, revealing her marehood in all its glory. Licking my lips, I slowly trailed a finger along it — Twilight letting out a pleased coo at my touch. It wasn't long before I felt her excitement gathering, which was more than enough of a prompt for me to stop teasing and get to work.

Slowly, gently, I slid two fingers inside Twilight's entrance. Her hind legs kicked involuntarily at the sensations coursing through her, but she still continued sleeping. Undeterred by this, I began to thrust my fingers into her — slowly at first, but it didn't take me long to build up a suitable speed.

Twilight started whimpering, murmuring incoherently as she slept. She thrashed around, forehooves gripping the sheets as tightly as she could while I continued to fingerbang her.

"You're probably thinking this is one hell of a dream," I said. "Well trust me, babe, it isn't." I removed my fingers from her, listening to her pant as though she had just ran a hundred marathons. "I can't believe you're actually sleeping through this." I grumbled. "No matter, let me try another tactic."

I got my head between her legs, slowly drawing my tongue across her sweet folds and savouring her delectable flavour. Twilight moaned in ecstasy, her forelegs finding their way atop my head as if spurring me to continue.

I slipped my tongue inside her, lapping at her innermost places like a dog at a water bowl — the pleasured cries of the mare above me sounding like the greatest of symphonies.

Minutes passed before she arched her back, gripped the sheets tighter than ever, let out one final cry of bliss and then hit her orgasm. A wave of fluids washed over my face and tongue, staining the sheets with her precious nectar. I licked up as much as I could and gave her one last kiss, getting out the bed.

"I expect the same treatment, Twi," I whispered. "And make it happen soon, because I feel like my balls are about to explode."

Twilight sighed in satisfaction as I crept towards the door and opened it, checking again for any signs of life in the hall. I cast one final glance back at the sleeping form of my beloved and quickly retreated to my own room — eagerly awaiting what I hoped would be the best blowjob I had ever received.

***

As the door closed, the mare in the bed stirred slowly. She looked around at the darkened room, her eyes slowly becoming used to the gloom, and soon cast them downwards — coming to rest upon the soaked bedsheets. As she contemplated what was going on the door opened again, revealing a figure illuminated by candlelight.

"Huh?" she asked. "Who's that?"

"It's me, honey," a male voice replied. "I just had to finish off some paperwork – which was really, really, really boring – and now I'm ready for a good night's sleep."

"That's a shame," she replied. "Because I've just had the most amazing dream – which made me come like a freight train, by the way – and I'm now desperate for a seriously good fucking."

The male swallowed audibly. "But—"

"I don't care if you're tired, or if anypony hears us," the mare snapped. "Get over here right now, and see to it that I am screaming your name within the next few minutes."

The stallion grinned and trotted over to the bed, pausing for a moment before he leaned in and kissed the mare on the lips.

"Right away," he replied. "My dear Velvet."

The Morning After [CLOP]

"Harder, dammit!"

"Oh, fuck!"

I put a pillow over my head, trying desperately to block out the sound of Twilight's parents fucking like horny teenagers, and tried to think about what would happen when Twilight would finally come into my room — so that I could cum in her mouth.

But she never did show up and I slowly drifted off to sleep, the sound of Velvet riding out an orgasm being the last thing I heard.

I awoke the next morning feeling annoyed — whereupon I went into the bathroom, got into the shower and pondered possible reasons as to why she could have left me hanging like that. Needless to say, I soon resolved to find Twilight and ask her why in the hell she would leave me with a bad case of blue balls.

***

I was sitting at the kitchen table, with an annoyed expression on my face, when Twilight trotted merrily into the room. She came over and sat next to me, giving me a kiss on the cheek by way of greeting, and then gave me a hug.

"Morning, handsome," she cooed. "Did you sleep well?"

"Not really," I replied, shuddering slightly. "Given that I had to listen to your parents having sex for most of the night."

Twilight giggled. "It was only one night," she said. "I had to listen to them doing it at least twice a week when I was still living here, so you haven't had it half as bad as I have."

"I was waiting for you, you know." I looked Twilight in the eyes. "All night long, I waited for you to sneak into my room so that you could return my little favour."

Twilight looked at me blankly. "Favour?" she asked. "What favour?"

I raised an eyebrow, grinning madly. "Oh, come on, Twi," I said. "Don't tell me that you didn't notice my fingers working their magic on you last night." I paused. "Mind you, you were asleep..."

"I have no idea what it is you're on about, Geo," Twilight deadpanned. "Besides, I was awake for most of the night myself... and it wasn't because of my parents. I got to thinking about how lonely it seemed without you in the bed with me and, well, I started fantasising about what we'd be doing if you were." She giggled adorably. "I wasn't expecting my mother to scream that loud, but I'm rather glad that she did — as it was more than enough to drown out my own cry of orgasmic bliss."

The table suddenly seemed to develop a wobble as I got a raging hard-on. "But... I came to your room," I stammered. "I'm pretty damn certain I would have known if you were masturbating."

"Well, you didn't," Twilight snapped. "I don't know, Geo, maybe you just had a really intense dream or something." She looked at the bulge in my trousers. "Anyway, how about I take your mind off things by sorting out that tent you're pitching?"

She lit her horn, her magic grabbing my trousers and undoing the zip and button. Once my cock was free of its prison, she took a hold of it in a forehoof and started stroking it.

"N-not here, Twilight!" I suppressed a groan. "Your parents could come in here at any second!"

"Oh, yes, you're right." Twilight continued her motions. "Well, then, I guess we'd better be quick about this." She leaned in and kissed my neck. "Now shut up, and let me work my magic."

She started running her forehoof up and down my length, slowly and gently, listening to the small gasps which left my mouth.

"I've always wondered how the hell do you do that," I said. "How can you even get a decent grip with hooves?!"

"It's magic." Twilight shrugged. "I ain't gotta explain shit."

She started stroking me faster, her hoof dancing around my shaft and becoming slick with pre. I leaned back in the chair, perfectly happy to relax and let her do her thing — but then we heard something that made us both freeze.

Hoofsteps on the floor above.

"Fuck!" I whimpered. "I knew they'd be up at some point! Dammit, Twi, stop that and let me get my fucking trousers on!"

"No, wait," Twilight replied. "They've only just got up, so they'll be having a shower." She repositioned herself, standing with her hind legs on the stool and her forelegs on the table, then moved her tail to the side to reveal her wetness. "What are you waiting for, Geo, an invitation?! Fuck me, and do it quickly!"

I quickly stood up and got behind her, rubbing the head of my dick against her wet slit for a moment before I pushed it inside. We both let out quiet moans of pleasure — and then I started thrusting like a man possessed, holding on tight to Twilight's sides.

The sound of running water filtered down from above, confirming what Twilight had said, but we both knew it wouldn't last. I continued my piston-like movements, relishing the feeling of her walls gripping my cock with each push.

Twilight was biting one of her forehooves, although the occasional moan did manage to escape. I remedied this by turning her head around and engaging her in a passionate kiss, thus allowing us to moan to our hearts' content into each others mouths.

The water soon stopped, and I picked up the pace. Neither of us wanted to think of the repercussions of our actions should we be caught, and I for one didn't fancy having to deal with a pissed off Night Light — especially after telling him I wouldn't do exactly this.

"Almost there, Twi," I grunted. "Just a few more seconds..."

"Hurry!" Twilight replied. "They'll be down in a couple of minutes!"

A few more thrusts was all it took, and soon I was emptying my balls into Twilight's inviting entrance. I put my hand over her mouth to cover the shriek of glee that escaped her, while at the same time pondering how we were going to clean up the combined sexual fluids that were now leaking all over the floor.

Panting furiously, I withdrew my rod from Twilight's pussy and put it back in my pants. Twilight, meanwhile, tidied up her mane and tail before a flash of magic from her horn cleaned up any evidence of our morning misdeeds.

"I knew learning that spell would come in handy." she gave me a quick kiss on the lips. "Thanks for that, Geo, I really needed it."

"No, Twi, I needed it as well, so thank you." I put my arms around her. "I love you so much."

"I love you too." Twilight nuzzled me contentedly — just as her parents came into the kitchen, looking cheerful.

"Good morning, Twilight, Geo," Velvet said cheerfully. "I hope you both slept well, despite being alone."

"I slept very well, Velvet, thank you for asking." I was lying through my teeth, but they didn't need to know that. "And what about you two? You both seem very chipper this morning, so I assume you both had a good night too?"

"The best," Velvet said breathlessly. "Oh, the dream I had last night..." She trailed off, blushing furiously, as Night Light coughed.

"Now, now, Velvet," he said. "Geo and Twilight don't need – or want, for that matter – to hear about your dream."

Velvet giggled. "Oh come now," she replied. "We're all adults here. Besides, I'm no fool — I'm pretty sure that Twilight is all too familiar with our nights of passion."

Twilight's cheeks turned bright red at this statement. "You're right, Mom," she replied. "On both accounts, that is — I am familiar with them, and I don't want to hear about it."

"Well I'm sure Geo does," Velvet said. I opened my mouth to correct her, but she continued. "I was in my bed, alone, when the door opened and somepony came in. I couldn't see who it was, but I'm going to assume it was Night Light." Twilight stuck her forehooves over her ears and grimaced. "Anyway, he climbed into bed with me, gave me a kiss on the nose... then made me orgasm simply by using his horn. And I don't mean that he used magic, either — he actually put his horn inside me!" She paused. "Well... I assume it was his horn, as it was something long... so I can safely say that it definitely wasn't his hooves."

By the time she had finished speaking, Twilight had her face planted on the table, Night Light was whistling innocuously, his ears flat against his head — and I had turned whiter than a sheet.

Because it was this moment I realised that the Twilight I had gone down on the previous evening wasn't Twilight Sparkle...

It was Twilight Velvet.

This thought was the last thing to enter my mind as I suddenly passed out from shock.

The Truth Is Out

View Online

The first thing I saw when I woke up was Velvet, who was blushing furiously while patting me on the head. Upon seeing that my eyes were open, she stopped and drew her hoof back.

"I'm sorry," she said sheepishly. "I guess you didn't want to hear about it after all — though I have to admit that passing out was a bit of an overreaction, wouldn't you agree?"

I nodded meekly, too shocked to even contemplate forming a coherent response. Over and over again, the horrifying truth replayed itself in my mind.

I fingerbanged my marefriend's mother.

I went down on my marefriend's mother.

I made my marefriend's mother come.

I made my marefriend's mother think I was her husband.

I CHEATED ON MY MAREFRIEND WITH HER MOTHER.

Velvet giggled. "I can see why you like him so much, Twilight," she said. "He's really quite adorable when he's flustered."

Twilight rolled her eyes and sighed. "Leave him alone, mom, you've freaked him out enough as it is."

Velvet nodded and walked into the kitchen, where I could see Night Light flipping pancakes. I stood up and made my way over to Twilight — only for her to grab me in her magic and force me onto the couch, at which point she sat on my lap and put her muzzle just a few inches from my ear.

"Geo," she whispered calmly. "Did you fuck my mother?"

The colour draining from my face was the only answer she needed. She looked away from me with a betrayed look on her face.

"H-how did you work it out?" I asked.

Twilight scoffed. "Oh, please, Geo," she snapped. "What kind of an idiot do you take me for? My mother mentioned 'something long,' but she thought it was my father's horn." She shuddered. "All of a sudden, you turn white and pass out — so, why don't you sit there and tell me that it wasn't your finger she was feeling instead... or, Princesses forbid, your dick?"

"Twilight, please," I pleaded. "I didn't do it on purpose — it's just that... in the darkened room, I thought it was you. After all, you can't deny that you and your mum look similar." I tried turning her head around so that she was facing me, but she batted my hand away. "I didn't put my dick in her, I swear. I just fingered her for a moment and then... I kinda went down on her."

A loud smack, a stinging sensation and the sudden jerking of my head told me that this was the wrong thing to say. I looked at Twilight to see that she had tears streaming down her cheeks, her forehoof still poised to strike me again.

But, instead, she lowered her hoof and turned around — to see both of her parents standing in the kitchen doorway with shocked expressions fixed firmly on their faces.

"Twilight?" Night Light asked warily. "Geo? What's going on?"

Twilight prodded me sharply in the chest. "Ask this... motherfucker," she hissed. She climbed off me and faced her parents. "And I mean that literally, mom — in fact, you might want to re-examine that 'dream' you had last night. I'm sure Geo here would be more than happy to 'fill you in.'"

Almost immediately, all the pieces fell into place — Velvet began shaking uncontrollably, while Night Light looked ready to kill me.

"I know it looks bad," I said. "But if you'll let me explain—"

"EXPLAIN?!" Night Light bellowed. "What is there to explain? You... you molested my wife, for Celestia's sake!"

My own expression darkened. "That's taking things a bit too far," I snarled. "I know I messed up — but, in my defence, it was dark. I honestly thought that your wife was in fact your daughter."

Night Light narrowed his eyes. "So you were going to defy my instructions, were you?" he growled. "You gave me your word that there would be no funny business between you and Twilight — only for you to 'mess up' and fuck my wife instead."

Velvet looked distraught. "I feel so... dirty," she whimpered. "I... I think you should leave." She pointed at the door. "Now."

"But... I—" I began, only to be cut off by Twilight picking me up and carrying me to the door.

"Are you deaf?" she asked. "She said..." She opened the door, allowing a cold draught to come in. "GET OUT!"

With that, I was unceremoniously tossed outside and onto the pavement. My sudden appearance got a few confused looks from the locals, but I ignored them and stood up.

"Twilight, please," I said. "I love you, and I'm so sorry I hurt you like this. Please, let's talk about—"

The slamming of the door was the only response I got. With a sigh I turned around and made my way out of the garden, noticing that I was still being watched. "What the fuck are you looking at?" I snapped. "Never seen a man get thrown out of a house before?"

The assorted Canterlot ponies looked shocked by my language, but soon turned up their noses and trotted away swiftly. I stuck my hands in my pockets and began pounding the streets, not even knowing – or giving a fuck – about where I was going.

***

"Forgive me, Night Light," Velvet said. "I swear to Celestia and Luna that I didn't know what was going on." She put a forehoof on his. "I genuinely thought it was you, but instead it was... it was..."

She trailed off as she began sobbing, at which Night Light scooped his wife into a loving hug. "I don't need to forgive you for anything, my dear," he replied. "Because, unlike Geo, you haven't done anything wrong — but it'll be a cold day in Tartarus before I'm ready to forgive him for what he's done to you and our daughter." He looked at Twilight, who was lying dejectedly on the couch with a crestfallen look on her face. "Twilight, sweetheart? Are you okay?"

Twilight sniffled. "No," she said. She raised her head slowly, looking at her parents with tear-filled eyes. "I think... I think we've blown this out of proportion." She wiped the tears away. "Having known Geo for as long as I have, I should know by now that he's not the sort of person who would willingly set out to cause trouble." She looked at Velvet. "In fact, mom, he's right — we do look alike, so I can hardly fault him for making that mistake." Her father went to speak, but Twilight raised a forehoof. "Having said that, though, he should have at least made sure it was me before he did anything."

"But, once he found out it was your mother, that would still cause problems for everypony," Night Light offered.

Twilight sighed. "What situation would you rather have us be in, Dad?" she asked. "One where Geo checked first and realised his mistake, or one where he didn't and caused a heap of trouble?"

Night Light shifted uncomfortably on his hooves for a moment, then let out a sigh. "The former," he mumbled. "But let me ask you this, Twilight — you were the one who threw him out the house, so tell me... what are you going to do now?" He let out a hollow laugh. "Are you truly prepared to forgive him for what he's done?"

Twilight thought for a moment, feeling her father's steely gaze boring into her, then nodded. "I already said that I should have known he wouldn't hurt me on purpose," she said. "I only acted the way I did because of the shock — after all, this is the first time something like this has ever happened." She smacked a forehoof into the couch. "Geo is the first individual whom I have ever truly loved, and I'll be damned if I throw away what we've got just because of one stupid mistake." She got off the couch. "I'm going to find him, and then we – all of us – are going to sit down and talk about this like the civilised adults we're supposed to be."

With that, she galloped out of the house — leaving her flabbergasted parents behind.

Planning For Forgiveness

View Online

"Stupid, stupid, stupid..."

I repeated these words to myself over and over again as I made my way through the streets of Canterlot. I was still unsure as to where exactly I was going — but I knew I had to get somewhere quick, given that I was not wearing my jacket.

Canterlot Castle, illuminated by the moon behind it, caught my eye. Stopping in my tracks, I remembered what Luna had told me in the letter she wrote when I got my citizenship rights.

'If you ever need to talk, we are always available.'

With this in mind, I began walking up the hill towards the castle. As I approached the main gates, the two guards stationed at it – a pegasus and an Earth pony – came over, the former using his weapon to bar my way. The pegasus was orange, while the Earth pony was grey — though their armour prevented me from seeing what their cutie marks were.

The pegasus spoke first. "Halt! Who are you, and why—"

"You idiot, Flash," the Earth pony interrupted. "Have you even been paying attention to briefings recently? This is Geo, the human whom the Princesses told us about."

Flash glared at him. "I knew that, Dusk," he defended. "But that's not going to deter me from asking him why he's here."

Dusk rolled his eyes and turned his attention to me. "I apologise for the stupidity of my colleague here," he said. "He's new. Now, I assume you are here to see the— whoa, wait a minute, why are you not wearing a jacket? You'll catch your death out here!"

"I know." I shrugged. "But to answer the question you were going to ask, yes, I am here to see the Princesses."

Both guards stepped aside, although Flash did so grudgingly. "Of course you can, sir," Dusk said. "Go on through, but be quick about it. It's going to get a lot colder out here later."

"Thanks for the warning," I replied, breaking into a sprint. I rushed up the stairs, into the castle — only to stop in my tracks again, since I realised I had no idea where to go. Thankfully, though, Fate decided to step in and lend me a hand.

"Geo?"

I turned around to see Luna and Celestia walking towards me with confused expressions on their faces. I bowed my head in respect, though they only seemed to notice one thing about me.

"Look at you, you're shivering!" Celestia said. "Whatever possessed you to come out in this weather without a coat?"

Luna nodded. "Indeed," she added. "What would Twilight think if she was to know you were doing something this silly?"

At the mention of Twilight's name, I dropped to my knees and began to cry. Both Princesses looked at me in shock, but quickly came over and helped me to my feet.

"Twilight..." I choked. "Twilight doesn't love me anymore. And why should she, after what I did?"

"What happened?" Celestia asked. "What did you do?"

"Tia." Luna swept a forehoof over the area, indicating the guards and staff who were going about their duties. "Perhaps this isn't the best place to discuss this issue. Let's take Geo to my chambers, so that we may have some privacy."

Celestia nodded, and then the world dissolved in a blaze of light.

***

Once the world had stopped spinning, I found myself sitting on Luna's rather plush bed. Looking around, I saw that everything about her room – the carpet, the curtains, the bedclothes, and so forth – seemed to be either black or really dark blue.

Luna herself was sitting next to me, while Celestia sat on the floor opposite. Both of them wore compassionate expressions — but eventually, after a moment of silence, I let out a sigh.

"So, you want to know what happened?" I asked, to which they nodded. "Well, I'll tell you... but you're probably going to end up hating me just as much as Twilight does."

With that, I launched into the story of how I came to find myself at the castle. Nothing was spared, as I explained every part of my illicit encounter with Velvet to the letter. By the time I was finished, I was on the verge of tears again — though Celestia and Luna's facial expressions had changed from compassionate to indifferent.

"That..." Luna paused for a moment, as though she was trying to find the right words. "That was some story, Geo."

"Indeed." Celestia nodded. "I can understand why Twilight would be angry with you, but I also understand how you could get her confused with her mother — after all, they do look alike."

"Be that as it may, Tia, Geo still needs to figure out what he's going to do in order to fix this mess." she looked at me. "It doesn't take a genius to work out how much Twilight means to you — but the real question is, just how far are you willing to go to make it up to her?"

I took a deep breath and looked her in the eyes. "I'll go as far as it takes," I replied. "I'll go to the very depths of Tartarus itself if I have to... I just want her to know that I'm sorry."

"Then you came to the right place," Luna said, patting me on the back. "I have an idea, Tia, but I'll need your support to make it happen. Can I count on you, dear sister?"

"You can always count on my support, Lulu," Celestia said. "Now, tell us about this idea of yours."

"Right." Luna nodded. "Okay then, dear Geo, listen up and listen well." She cleared her throat. "It seems, to me at least, that Twilight feels as though you have made a mockery of your relationship with her. Through your actions with Velvet, you have made her feel as though she means nothing to you — especially given the fact you didn't even check that you were in the right room before you performed a sex act on the mare in the bed."

I grit my teeth. "Don't you think I know that?" I growled. "If I could go back and stop myself from going down on Velvet, then you'd better believe that I'd kick my own arse just to make sure."

Luna let out a small giggle, but quickly stopped when I glared at her. "Sorry. Um, anyway... if you want Twilight to know just how much you love her, then you need to go about it in a most extravagant way — do something that she wouldn't expect you to do." She paused. "Tell me, Geo, are you familiar with the phrase 'to shout it from the rooftops?'"

I saw at once where she was going — and I made sure to nod as quickly as I could, cracking a smile for the first time that evening.

Shouting It From The Rooftops

View Online

Twilight walked swiftly through the streets, shivering slightly as the cold wind gnawed at her, scanning the area for any sign of Geo.

"Where would he go?" she asked herself. "He's only been to Canterlot once, so he's not familiar with the area." She sighed. "I hope he's not lost — I'd hate to have to kill him for freezing to death... then again, I could have at least given him his jacket when I threw him out onto the street." She wiped away an errant tear. "Focus, Twilight, you need to think like Geo would."

The sudden feeling of something warm being laid against her body snapped her out of her thoughts. Turning around, she saw her parents standing in front of her. They were both wearing their coats, while Velvet was trying to put Twilight's coat on her.

"Oh. Thanks, mom," Twilight said sheepishly. "You really came all this way just to give me my coat?"

Velvet shook her head. "We also came to help you find him," she replied. "The way you spoke about him earlier made us realise that you really do love him — so if you are willing to give him a chance to redeem himself, then we can as well."

"Indeed," Night Light added. "Might I suggest that you head to the castle? It's easy to get to, and you did tell us once that Geo has met the Princesses. Maybe he's with them?"

Twilight smiled. "That's a great idea, Dad!" she exclaimed. "Let's head over there right now and see if—"

"Citizens of Canterlot!" a booming voice cut through the chilly evening air, attracting the attention of everypony out on the streets. As they all glanced upwards, they could make out a solitary figure standing solemnly on the castle balcony.

Twilight and her parents gasped in shock, the former letting out a horrified squeal of shock.

"GEO?!"

***

A few minutes earlier...

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" I asked of Luna, who was putting yet another scarf on me. "It looks really slippery out there, and I don't quite fancy breaking my neck."

"You'll be fine," Luna replied. "Tia will take care of the ice, and then I will apply the voice amplification spell."

Celestia nodded and charged her horn with magic. A quick flash later, and the ice on the balcony had melted.

"There we go," she said. "It's all up to you now, Geo." She turned to Luna. "I hope this idea of yours works, Lulu."

"Maybe it will, and maybe it won't." Luna waved a forehoof dismissively. "But we won't know until he tries." She opened the balcony door, another cold draught flooding into the room, and gently pushed me towards it. "Good luck, Geo."

I nodded once and stepped onto the balcony. I glanced behind me and looked at the Princesses, watching as Luna charged a spell. A tingling feeling overtook my throat, and I coughed a couple of times. "Was that the voice amplification spell?" I asked her, to which she nodded. "I guess it only works if I shout?" She nodded again. "Well... all right then, here goes nothing."

I looked out over the streets of Canterlot. The snow lay on the ground like a large white carpet, reflecting the streetlights and making the city seem as though it was glowing. I took a few moments to compose myself, and then took a deep breath.

"Citizens of Canterlot!" my voice burst forth from my mouth with the raw power of a hundred megaphones. It had the desired effect, though, as I could make out hundreds of confused ponies turning their heads upwards to look at me. Hoping against hope that Twilight was one of them, I continued shouting.

"My name is Geo, a human who has been living amongst you for the better part of a year now. In that time, I have been blessed with not just new friends, but the love of a beautiful mare — my beloved Twilight Sparkle. But recently, I did something that threatened to destroy that love... and now I come before you all today to throw myself at her mercy – not literally, though, in case you're worried I'm gonna jump – and beg her for forgiveness."

"I will not go into the gory details of what I did, as the damage has already been done. What I will do, however, is tell the whole of this fair city exactly why I love this mare — in the hope that she is listening to me speaking from the heart."

Twilight remained rooted to the spot, eyes cast upwards, staring solemnly at the Geo standing on the balcony. Her parents stood on either side of her, also staring, while Geo began speaking.

"My name is Geo, a human who has been living amongst you for the better part of a year now. In that time, I have been blessed with not just new friends, but the love of a beautiful mare — my beloved Twilight Sparkle." A faint smile appeared on Twilight's lips, but it quickly vanished as soon as Geo resumed speaking. "But recently, I did something that threatened to destroy that love... and now I come before you all today to throw myself at her mercy – not literally, though, in case you're worried I'm gonna jump – and beg her for forgiveness. I will not go into the gory details of what I did, as the damage has already been done. What I will do, however, is tell the whole of this fair city exactly why I love this mare — in the hope that she is listening to me speaking from the heart."

"What is he up to?" Night Light asked. "Does he really think that telling all of Canterlot about your troubles is actually going to—"

"Dad, shush!" Twilight cut him off. "I want to hear this."

"Twilight was one of the first ponies I met when I arrived in Equestria," Geo continued. "I had been injured, and was trying to find help when I was hoisted into the air by Rainbow Dash and flown to where Twilight and the rest of the Element bearers were."

A ripple of laughter washed over the crowd, as they imagined Rainbow Dash struggling to carry the human.

"But we didn't have time to chat, as my injury became more serious and caused me to pass out from intense agony. I woke up some time later in hospital, where Twilight was the first one besides the doctor to see me. She informed me that she was the one who carried me all the way from the Everfree Forest to Ponyville. Rainbow Dash found me and brought me to her friends, and then Twilight took me to the hospital. It goes without saying that they both helped to save my life that day."

"I met the Princesses, and they allowed me to stay in Equestria. I then spent three months in the hospital recovering from my injury, as well as helping Twilight and the doctors learn all that they could about human anatomy. Twilight visited me a lot, and after two months... well, I realised that I loved her."

"I won't bore you with the long story, but suffice to say the feeling was mutual. We soon got together, and ever since then we have been inseparable... until now, that is." There was a pause. "I fell in love with Twilight because she is the most amazing individual whom I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I love her caring nature, her dedication, the way her tongue pokes out her mouth when she's concentrating, the gorgeous eyes I find myself getting lost in on many an occasion, the way she does anything she can to help others – often without asking for anything in return – and I also love running my hands through her silky soft mane."

"But the main reason I fell in love with her was because of her compassion. I know that she and her friends have had the occasional falling out, but they have always made peace in the end. Granted, the things they fell out over pale in comparison to what I have done — but if there is one thing that I have learned during my time here, it's that love – like friendship – will always find new and inspiring ways to persevere."

There was another pause, during which murmurs of agreement rose up from the crowd. Twilight sniffled heavily, wiping her eyes free of tears as Geo spoke once more.

"I love you, Twilight Sparkle, and that is never going to change. I know that what I did was wrong on so many levels, but I hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me." He looked out over the crowd. "Thank you for listening, Canterlot. Good night."

The crowd watched as Geo left the balcony and walked back into the castle. Twilight's parents looked at each other — but as they went to look at their daughter, so they could gauge her reaction, a blaze of purple light momentarily blinded them. Once their vision had cleared, they saw that Twilight was gone.

***

As I stepped back into the warmth of Luna's bedroom, I noticed that she and Celestia were sitting on her bed. Both of them glanced up at me as I took off the several scarves, and I saw that their eyes were misting over. Pouring myself some water, I addressed them.

"I take it you heard everything?" I asked.

Celestia nodded. "We did," she replied. "And it was lovely."

"It was indeed," Luna added. "If Twilight heard that – and there's no reason she wouldn't have, given that most of Canterlot could hear you – then hopefully she will consider talking to you."

"I heard every word."

Luna frowned as I sprayed her bedside cabinet with water, staring slack-jawed at the doorway Twilight was standing in. She looked at the Princesses, and then locked eyes with me. We held our stares for a moment before she finally looked away, blushing madly.

"We'll leave you two in peace." Celestia stood up and left the room, smiling warmly at Twilight as she passed her.

Luna walked over to me and leaned in closer to my ear. "Let her say whatever she wants," she whispered. "And do not even think about attempting to stop her." She glanced over at Twilight. "But, if things go the way I think they're going to, make sure you change the bedclothes — and burn the old ones." She winked at me and grinned wickedly, quickly following after her sister.

The door closed with a soft click, leaving Twilight and I standing in the room. We stood in silence for a moment, but I eventually walked over to the bed and sat down.

"Care to join me?" I patted the bed. "If we're going to talk, there's no sense in you being all the way over there."

Twilight walked over and sat down next to me. I reached out for one of her hooves, cheering internally when she made no attempt to stop me. "Well, then," she said. "Let's talk."

Rather than talk immediately, Twilight and I sat in silence for a while until she eventually looked at me. Her eyes still stung with the bitter tears of betrayal, but the small smile on her face filled me with the hope that we could put this mess behind us.

"Geo," she said. "I came out here to find you so that we – you, me, and my parents – could sit down and talk about what happened. But then you had to go and risk your life, just so you could tell the whole of Canterlot exactly how much I mean to you." She sighed wistfully. "You're an idiot... but you're my idiot."

"I'm not just an idiot," I replied. "I'm a complete and total scumbag who ruined everything because he couldn't keep it in his pants." I squeezed her hoof. "I am so sorry, Twilight, for everything. I should have checked to make sure I was in the right room, but I let my dick get in the way of common sense and logic."

"I feel the same way." Twilight nodded. "I have never been in love before, so there was that part of my mind which thought you were throwing away what we had together. I should have known that you would never willingly do anything that would hurt me on such an emotional level — but, just like you said about your dick, I let my anger get in the way of common sense and logic."

I pulled her in for a hug, which she returned. "I'm still the one who messed up big time," I muttered. "I just want to forget about this whole thing, but we haven't even reached the part where I get on my knees and beg your parents for their forgiveness."

Twilight giggled and nuzzled me. "They'll forgive you in time," she said. "But right now, I just want you to hold me."

And hold her I did. We sat in contented silence for twenty minutes, perfectly happy to rest our heads in the crook of the other's neck, until we finally separated and gazed at each other.

"So, Geo." Twilight didn't break eye contact. "Do you really think that my eyes are 'gorgeous,' and love 'getting lost in them?'"

I nodded. "I do indeed," I said. "I can still remember one time during my second month in the hospital. I had just woken up after being worn out by the Crusaders, and you were the first one I saw. We looked straight at each other, ignoring the three fillies sleeping on me, and held our gazes for a good ten seconds."

"I remember that as well." Twilight giggled. "I came over to talk to you, and I found you acting as a makeshift bed. It was, as I said, the most adorable thing I've ever seen. But in those ten seconds, I came to realise that I was developing feelings for you far beyond those of mere friendship." She blushed. "They were, without a doubt, the best ten seconds of my life."

"Oh, Twilight..."

I brought her in even closer, a single tear making its way down my cheek as our lips connected. In that moment, it felt as though nothing had ever happened, although I knew deep down that this was not the case. Even so, I was happy to have the love of my life back in my arms once more — and as we separated again, Twilight moved in and began kissing my neck.

"I love you, Geo," she said in between kisses. "And I'm sorry I acted the way I did. I know you didn't mean for any of this to happen, and I'm sorry that I ever doubted your character."

I kissed her on the cheek and began working my way down. "I love you, Twilight," I replied. "I know that I can't change what I did, but I hope you realise that I would do so in a heartbeat if I could. You mean everything to me, and it was foolish of me to risk that."

"Oh, Geo..."

Twilight leaned forward, pushing me onto my back, and straddled my crotch. A faint hum of magic filled the air as I felt my trousers being removed, followed immediately by my underwear.

I gasped as Twilight wordlessly began grinding her hips against my cock, which made me hard almost instantly, while cute little giggles and moans left her mouth. My stiffness poked against her wet entrance, at which point I began rubbing her clit with the head.

Twilight almost shrieked in glee, muffling it by crashing her lips to mine in a heated exchange of saliva. As she pulled away, she looked at me with half-lidded eyes and grinned.

"Skip the foreplay, Geo," she said. "Just... make love to me."

I nodded once and lined myself up, the substantial lubricant Twilight was providing ensuring that I met no resistance as my dick disappeared inside her love tunnel. I hilted within seconds, both of us moaning intently, at which pointed Twilight lifted herself up and began slamming her hips into mine as if her life depended on it.

As we fucked each other's brains out, everything around us appeared to fade away into nothingness. It was though the world around us didn't exist, leaving just Twilight and I alone – on Luna's bed – sharing this wonderful moment with each other.

Twilight rode me feverishly for a few minutes, until tiredness set in and forced her to slow down. Undeterred by this – and also because I was desperate to get off – I pushed myself up, put my arms around her, and got her onto her back before resuming my frantic thrusting into her slick and needy pussy.

I felt Twilight's hind legs wrap around my waist, allowing her to lift herself off the bed by a few inches — which was more than enough to allow me to penetrate deeper into her. The once quiet room was filled with moans, pants, screams of glee and the undeniable sound of aching balls slapping against soaked lips.

I don't know how long we fucked for; it could have been minutes, although to us it felt like hours. But, eventually, the intense passion meant that we couldn't contain ourselves any longer.

My thrusts slowed down as I finally came, relishing in the feeling of Twilight's walls milking me for every last drop. Thirty seconds of sloppy pushes passed before she finally hit her own climax, screaming my name as her precious nectar squirted everywhere.

Pulling out, we lay next to each other and cuddled for a while. Nothing was said, as we were both content to simply bask in the afterglow and smile at each other. We took in each others scent, mixed with sweat and lust, and sighed contentedly.

"That was wonderful," Twilight whispered.

"It was," I replied.

"Can we stay here a while longer?" she asked. "I don't really fancy facing my parents just yet."

"We can stay here for as long as you want," I said.

And so, we did exactly that — at least until another voice called out and broke the wondrous silence.

"Remember to burn those bedclothes!"

Twilight and I looked at each other, laughed heartily, and then set about the task of cleaning up. As we took off the – now positively ruined – bedclothes and replaced them, I reflected on everything that had happened up until this point.

I may have had Twilight back, but deep down we both knew that the hardest part of this whole situation was yet to come.

Because it was now time for what I was sure would be a really awkward talk with Twilight's parents...

An Awkward Conversation

After thanking – and apologising to – Princess Luna, Twilight and I bade our farewells to both Princesses and returned to Twilight's parents house. As soon as we started walking up the path to the front door, it opened and Velvet came rushing out.

"You're back!" she said. "Did you have a chance to talk?"

Twilight nodded. "We did indeed, mom," she replied. "And we've managed to work things out. Now all that remains is smoothing things over with you and Dad."

Velvet glanced at me. "Are you sure? Your father is still rather upset about the whole thing." She looked away. "In fact, Geo, I don't think he is quite ready to face you right now."

"I don't blame him," I replied. "Hell, I should be lucky that you're even giving me the time of day. After all, Velvet, you're the one who has suffered the most in all this."

"I wouldn't say 'suffered,' dear." Velvet blushed. "It's just... a lot to take in, that's all. Come on in, but expect a frosty reception."

"Thank you." I followed Twilight and Velvet into the house, took off my shoes, and then walked into the living room. Night Light was sitting on the solitary armchair, taking sips from a glass of what looked like brandy which he held firmly in his magical aura — but what struck me the most was the glare on his face.

"So." he put the glass down. "You have finally decided to stallion up and show your face to me, in the hope that we can talk about this."

"I have." I looked him in the eyes, matching his steely glare with my own in an attempt to show him that I would not be so easily intimidated. "And we are going to talk about this."

"Quite." Night Light nodded. "It goes without saying, Geo, that if I were a lesser stallion – not to mention a decade younger – I would be kicking your worthless flank around this house." He sighed. "But, fortunately for you, I am not. So sit down, shut up, and allow me to explain why I hate you so much right now."

"I thought it was obvious already." I sat down. "But if this is what it takes, then so be it. Give me all you've got."

Twilight and Velvet also sat down, the former taking a place next to me while the latter chose a spot on the floor next to her husband.

"Velvet means the world to me," Night Light said. "We met when we were in college, and became good friends, although I will admit that it was some time before I had mustered enough courage to ask her to the prom. But I was too late, for another stallion had already asked her. His name was Silver Stomp, a pegasus who was keen to become Equestria's next biggest singer."

"I think I've heard of him," Twilight said. "He's a rapper who glorifies violence against mares and the law."

"He is a colossal waste of space," Night Light hissed. "But anyway, enough about him. With Velvet otherwise inaccessible for the evening, I ended up going to the prom with one of her friends, a mare by the name of Cheerilee."

"Wow," I said. "I didn't realise Cheerilee was as old as that."

"I know, right?" Twilight giggled. "She looks good for her age."

"Can I continue, please?" Night Light snapped, to which we looked at him sheepishly. "Right, as I was saying, Cheerilee and I had a lovely evening together. But we had both agreed that we were there just to spare each other the embarrassment of going to the prom alone, for she knew about my feelings for Velvet."

"When the evening came to an end, we were on our way back to the train station when we heard a commotion coming from an alleyway. At first we didn't think anything of it, but then we heard Velvet's voice saying 'I already told you no.'"

Twilight gasped. "Mom?" she asked. "H-he didn't... did he?"

Velvet shook her head. "He tried," she replied. "He managed to get a hoof between my hind legs before..." She trailed off.

"Before I jumped on him." Night Light finished her sentence. "While Cheerilee made sure that Velvet was okay, I gave that son of a bitch the beating of a lifetime." He bared his teeth and banged his forehooves together, as if reliving the memory.

"I finally managed to get him to stop by putting my forelegs around his neck and hugging him," Velvet said. "It probably wasn't the best thing to do, but I was suddenly overcome with relief." She shuddered. "I can't imagine what would have happened had your father and Cheerilee not been passing at that time."

"So what happened next?" I asked. "Did you, Velvet and Cheerilee find the nearest guard to report what Silver Stomp tried to do?"

"Velvet thanked me for my help — and I responded by kissing her." Night Light chuckled. "After I pulled away I quickly realised what I'd done, and I was about to apologise... when she kissed me back."

"It's true." Velvet smiled. "I did. And once I had pulled away, I put my mouth to his ear and whispered 'Hell, it's about time.'"

"Then we went to find a guard." Night Light grinned. "Silver got three months in jail, and Velvet and I got together at long last. By the time Silver got out, she was pregnant with your brother — at which point I finally decided to make an honest mare out of her."

"That's a lovely story," I said. "But, if you don't mind me asking, what does that have to do with what I did?"

Night Light sighed. "Ever since that day in the alley, I have pledged to protect Velvet and make her as happy as I can." He looked me straight in the eyes. "And then, in one single night, you managed to make me break both of those promises."

I looked at him blankly. "Wait, both of them?" I scratched my head. "I can understand you being upset about not being able to protect her, but how the hell did I make you break your promise about—"

"BECAUSE YOU PLEASURED HER BETTER THAN I EVER HAVE!"

My jaw dropped.

Twilight's jaw dropped.

Velvet's jaw dropped.

The ensuing silence lasted for a good two minutes, during which Night Light couldn't look any of us in the eye, before Velvet spoke.

"Wait, what?" she asked. "Is that why you're so upset, because he was able to pleasure me better than you?"

Night Light nodded solemnly. "He made you orgasm so hard, which in turn made you very horny, which in turn led to us having what was – without a doubt – the best sex we've ever had."

Twilight grimaced. "I don't think I want to hear this," she said.

"Don't be such a prude," Night Light replied. "Besides, do you really think that we didn't hear the two of you having sex this morning?" Twilight and I glanced at each other, and he raised an eyebrow. "Come now, I knew you were both going to disobey me; that's why I never said anything. But, of course, another matter soon arose."

"Well, in that case..." I swallowed nervously. "I'm sorry I made you feel like less of a stallion. I'm also sorry for fingering your wife."

"If you truly wish to earn my forgiveness, Geo..." Night Light trotted over to me — and then suddenly reared onto his hind legs so he could grab my shoulders. "You will teach me your methods!"

Velvet gasped. "Night Light, you can't be serious!"

"I am serious, Velvet." Night Light got back on all fours and turned to face his wife. "When I came into our room that night, the very first thing I saw was the smile on your face. And when you told me why you were smiling, I was intrigued. But now that I know Geo is actually the reason behind your smile, I want to know what he did and how he did it... so I can continue to make you happy, just like I promised I would on our wedding day."

"Oh, Night..." Velvet sighed blissfully as she kissed him.

While they kissed each other, Twilight nudged me. "Um, right," she said. "That went... well, I guess?"

"Better than I expected," I replied. "But at the same time, it didn't go the other way I expected it to."

"Are you going to tell my dad what he wants to know?" she asked.

I nodded. "If that's what it takes to earn his forgiveness, then I guess I can put up with more awkwardness for a while..."

Twilight giggled and nuzzled me.

And suddenly, everything didn't seem so bad any more.

On the train back home, Twilight and I felt closer together than ever. Our relationship had been tested to the limit, yes, but we had managed to put it behind us and move on with our lives. And as Ponyville came into view, I hugged her tighter than ever.

I had spent the last day of my visit to Canterlot telling Night Light exactly what I had done to Velvet. He listened intently to my words until he could recite them back to me, saying that – despite his lack of fingers – he would be able to recreate the sensation. I didn't fancy finding out what he meant by that, so I didn't ask.

Once the train had stopped, we both took our bags and headed over to the Carousel Boutique, where Spike had been staying with Rarity (much to his glee). It wasn't long, however, before a certain friend of ours made an appearance — by which I mean she jumped out of a bush and tackled Twilight to the ground.

"You're back!" Pinkie said eagerly. "How was your trip? Was it super fun and splendiferous to be back in the big city and to see your mom and dad again? Was it? Huh, huh, was it?!"

Twilight got up, with my help, and dusted herself off. "It was fine, Pinkie," she said. "There were one or two minor hiccups, but other than that it was a lovely trip. Right, Geo?"

"Hiccups?" Pinkie asked. "Did you try drinking a glass of water while standing on your head? That always works for me!"

I laughed. "Not that kind of 'hiccup,' Pinkie," I replied. "We had a bit of a falling out, like most couples do, but we've sorted it now."

Pinkie gasped. "But why would you both fall out?" she wondered. "You two are the cutest couple I've ever seen!"

"We'd rather not talk about it," Twilight said. "All you need to know is that we sorted things out, and we're okay. Right now, though, we really want to get Spike, then go home and—"

"Have sex?" Pinkie cocked her head at us.

"We want to get home and unpack." I finished Twilight's sentence for her. "It was a long trip, so we might also sleep for a while."

"Right, I getcha." Pinkie tapped her nose. "You did it on the train."

"What?! No!" Twilight and I shouted in unison.

"Suuuuuuure you didn't," Pinkie said in a sing-song voice.

The resulting silence was awkward, to say the least, so I pointed in a random direction in an attempt to distract the overexcited Earth pony. "Hey, Pinkie," I said. "You've spent so long talking to us, you just missed something fun over there."

"WHAT?!"

She shot off in the direction I was pointing in, leaving Twilight and I free to make our escape back towards the Boutique.

"That was mean." Twilight giggled.

"Don't worry about it, Twi," I replied. "It's not as if the thought of missing anything fun is going to affect her in the future."

We soon arrived at the Boutique, at which Twilight knocked on the door once before we both went inside.

"Welcome to the Carousel Boutique," Spike said as he came into the room. "Where everything is chic, unique and— hey, you're back!" He ran up to Twilight and hugged her.

"Hi, Spike." Twilight hugged him back. "Everything all right?"

"Absolutely, darling." Rarity walked into the room and draped a foreleg over Spike's shoulders. "Spike has been magnificent; I've managed to get so much work done with his help."

"That's good, Rarity," Twilight replied. "Thanks again for letting him stay here; I didn't fancy leaving him all alone in the library."

"It's no problem at all, dear." Rarity noticed how close Twilight was leaning into me. "After all, a little trip away appears to have done the two of you the world of good."

"Yeah, well..." I rubbed my arm. "It wasn't without its problems, which we've worked out, but you're right. We really did get closer during that trip, and I for one am glad we went."

Rarity covered Spike's ears with her hooves. "Please, dear, not in front of Spike. He's far too young to listen to you two talk like that."

Twilight facehoofed. "Not you as well," she groaned. "We've already had Pinkie Pie think we were talking about sex when we weren't."

Rarity giggled and uncovered Spike's ears, a goofy smile appearing on his face at having been touched by his crush. "I was only teasing you, Twilight," she said. "I shall get Spike's belongings for him, and then the three of you can go home."

She disappeared upstairs, leaving Twilight and I to snap Spike out of his Rarity-induced stupor. He shook his head to clear his thoughts, then cleared his throat.

"So... how are your parents, Twilight?" he asked.

"They're fine, thanks for asking," she replied. "They asked me to pass on their best wishes, and made sure to tell me to tell you that you can come with us next time we visit."

"Thanks, I will." Spike glanced at the stairs. "Oh, there's Rarity." He rushed over to her. "I'll get those; they are mine after all."

"Such a gentlecolt." Rarity passed the bags over to him and gave him a small peck on the forehead, which made the goofy look reappear on his face. "Thank you again for all your help, darling, I really appreciate it. Oh, and since she's at school, Sweetie Belle asked me to tell you that she has enjoyed having you here as well."

"Aw, shucks, Rarity, it was nothing." Spike blushed. "I'm always happy to help out my friends."

"Quite," Rarity replied. "Anyway, I shan't keep you any longer. I must get some more work done before I pick Sweetie Belle up from school. Ta-ta, darlings, have fun!"

"Bye, Rarity!" said Spike, Twilight and I in unison.

Rarity waved one last time and then disappeared into her work room. As soon as she vanished from sight, Spike sighed dreamily.

"She's so amazing," he simpered. "And so... so beautiful."

I rolled my eyes. "Come on, Casanova, it's time we went home."

Spike grinned sheepishly and left the Boutique, Twilight and I following a few steps behind him. We walked all the way home in silence, noticing that Spike had already unlocked the door and rushed inside, then stood outside and looked at each other.

"It's been quite an eventful week," I said. "Hasn't it?"

She nodded. "Indeed," she replied. "But if there is one thing I've learned on this trip, it's that I can't bear to be apart from you."

"Likewise, Twilight." I scooped her up and hugged her. "Likewise."

With those words, we exchanged a long, passionate kiss and then entered the library, closing the door softly behind us.
