> Confessions of An Alicorn Princess > by Sparrow9642 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Confessions > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONFESSIONS The sun shined bright, and the wind blew slow as Twilight made her way out of her castle. She was feeling slightly nervous, feeling her hooves start to shake, as she took a deep breath. Today, she had to meet up with Rainbow Dash in Ponyville Center, so she could continue her weekly flying lessons with the bold pegasus. She had been doing these lessons with Rainbow for the past four weeks, and surprisingly, Twilight had progressed in her flying skills tremendously. Over the past weeks though, Twilight had also developed a special feeling for the pegasus as well. One she thought she'd never feel for Rainbow Dash, due to them being different in so many ways. At first, Twilight thought of Rainbow only as her friend, but whenever Rainbow adjusted her wings or touched her in any way during the lessons, Twilight would start to feel strange. Her limbs would weaken, she'd start to blush, and her heart rate would start to speed up. Rainbow had caught her a few times, and as usual, would ask if Twilight was okay. Twilight would lie with a simple excuse, when she knew that she was having a reaction to Rainbow touching her, and it made her feel relaxed, yet uncomfortable at the same time. It was a feeling she liked, and would even get an urge to do things to Rainbow Dash that she knew was crossing the line. The lessons were helpful, but she knew that one of these times she would go too far. Just the thought of it made her lick her lips. "Hold it together!" exclaimed Twilight, talking to herself. "This is just a phase! I can't possibly have "feelings" for Rainbow!" She lowered her voice, double-guessing herself. "Can I?" She shook her head, trying to remain focused. She spread her wings and flew slowly toward Ponyville Center, feeling a struggle within her mind. Twilight arrived above Ponyville Center, and slowly descended to the ground, planting all four hooves along the soft ground. She folded her wings, and placed them back into their normal position, as she scouted the area for Rainbow Dash. Rainbow was nowhere to be found, which didn't surprise Twilight one bit, due to Rainbow being late for the past two weeks. She decided to think about things while waiting for the pegasus to arrive in Ponyville Center. She thought about how she was going to control herself if there was any physical contact between her and Rainbow. Rainbow had caught her six times, and she knew that Rainbow would eventually question her, wanting to know the real reason behind Twilight's behavior. The way she acted wasn't something she could control, because it would happen naturally, as if it were a natural reaction. Somehow, she'd have to control it, otherwise she'd have to explain herself to Rainbow. Twilight's thoughts were interrupted, as she felt two taps on her head. "Hello! Anypony home?!" yelled the voice. Twilight looked up, noticing Rainbow Dash flying just above her. Twilight expressed a dumb look, as she closed her thoughts. "Sorry, Rainbow," said Twilight. "I was just thinking of something." "You're always thinking of something in that head of yours," replied Rainbow. "Hehe. Yeah," mumbled Twilight. "Well, are you ready?" asked Rainbow. "Sure," replied Twilight, spreading her wings. "Alright, let's go!" said Rainbow, flying off at a slow pace, so Twilight could keep up. Twilight flapped her wings evenly, until she was next to Rainbow. Rainbow gave Twilight a smile, blown away at how well she had gotten at flying. "Okay, now we're going to turn up the ante a little bit," said Rainbow. Twilight started to get nervous, noticing Rainbow's wings start to flap faster. "Do you really think I'm ready for that?" asked Twilight. "Seeing how well you're doing now, I think you're ready," replied Rainbow. "What do you want me to do?" asked Twilight. "Well, I want you increase your speed, replied Rainbow. "To increase your speed, just carefully increase your flapping pace while keeping it even. You can do it, Twilight!" Rainbow's encouragement gave Twilight confidence, as she slowly started to increase her flapping speed. At first, Twilight wasn't having trouble, until the pace started to feel uneven. Twilight immediately started to panic. "Rainbow, I'm not feeling so good," said Twilight. "The feeling you're experiencing is normal, Twilight," replied Rainbow. "Just slowly increase your flapping speed, and it'll even out. Trust me." Twilight calmed herself, and slowly increased the speed more and more, until it became even again. Twilight was overwhelmed, as she felt her speed increase. "Woohoo!" exclaimed Twilight, as she flew through the sky. Rainbow met up with her and gave her a smile. "Alright, Twilight," said Rainbow. "Now, focus on slowing down by doing the process backwards." This was the hardest part of the lessons, and the one part Twilight didn't like about flying. She ignored her thoughts and focused on slowing down, noticing they were close to Rainbow's home. She started slowing down her flapping speed to where it was originally, feeling the uneven pace once more. She just remembered what Rainbow said, and slowly flapped back to where her pace was even. Once she was back at her normal speed, she proceeded to landing, as she descended on the cloud platform of Rainbow's Cloudominium. She folded her wings back to the sides of her body, immediately starting feel an ache in her wings. She unfolded them again, as Rainbow landed next to her. "You okay, Twilight?" asked Rainbow. "My wings hurt," replied Twilight. "I can't fold them up." Rainbow recognized Twilight's pain. "You're fine, Twilight," said Rainbow. "It's because your wings aren't used to flying fast. Once you get used to it, that pain will disappear." "Makes sense," she replied with a painful groan. Rainbow knew a way to soothe Twilight's aching wings. "Hang on, Twilight," said Rainbow. "I've got just the thing for the pain." Twilight immediately protested, not wanting any sort of physical contact with Rainbow. "I'll be okay, Rainbow," said Twilight, trying to hide a painful grin. "Yeah right," said Rainbow. "I can tell your lying, Twilight." Twilight couldn't argue with Rainbow, and panicked as Rainbow dashed into her home. "Well, Twilight," she said to herself. "Now, the really challenge begins." Rainbow returned with a tube of some sort of ointment, and approached Twilight. "Hold still, Twilight," said Rainbow. "I'm going to apply some of this to the base of your wings." Twilight started to shake, as Rainbow squeezed out some of the ointment on one of her hooves, and approached Twilight's right wing. Rainbow gently rubbed her hoof against the base of Twilight's wing, immediately causing Twilight to quiver from the feeling of Rainbow touching her. The cream was cool, numbing the base of her wing, but Twilight started to feel her body collapse. It was the same feeling as before, and Rainbow started to notice Twilight's reaction. "I'm barely touching you, Twilight," said Rainbow. "Are you feeling okay?" Twilight had been caught again, and proceeded to answering with the same lie. "I'm fine," lied Twilight. "Ok, but you've been acting very strange lately," claimed Rainbow, moving to her left wing. Rainbow squeezed out more of the ointment, and started to rub the base of Twilight's left wing, immediately increasing the feeling in Twilight's body. The feeling increased more and more, as Rainbow continued to rub the base of the wing. Twilight's heart rate increased, along with her breathing. She had even started to let out small moans, which Rainbow immediately caught. Rainbow had even noticed Twilight's tail starting to rise, and her body collapsing. To test her theory, she didn't question Twilight and just continued the rubbing. The moans from Twilight increased, as she blushed, starting to feel strange. It wasn't much longer, until she felt her rear leak a liquid of some sort, and at that moment she knew Rainbow had caught her. "You've caught me," confessed Twilight. "I can't hide it anymore. I didn't want to believe it, but I think that I've fallen in love with you, Rainbow." Twilight was expecting Rainbow to be shocked, but was surprised, as Rainbow kissed her passionately. At first, Twilight was surprised, but she didn't retract, as the two lovers made their way into Rainbow's home, into the bedroom continuing to hold each other close, not pulling away. They kept they lips locked, collapsing on Rainbow's bed, both breathing heavily and rubbing their hooves through each other's manes. They didn't know what to think of this unexpected romance, only that they had both loved each other for so long. Rainbow broke away from Twilight's lips, and said something that made Twilight feel as if a ton of weight had been lifted from her. "I've loved you since the first day I crashed into you, Twilight. I was scared to admit it myself, but now that I know you love me, we can forget our doubts, and be together." Twilight smiled, as Rainbow Dash locked her lips with hers again, and the two made love with each other, now knowing they were meant to be. > Announcement > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANNOUNCEMENT After confessing their feelings, Rainbow Dash and Twilight proceeded to the next step in their lives, seeing it was clear that they were meant to be. The two loved each other dearly, and proceeded to scheduling a wedding as soon as possible. Same sex marriage was legal in Ponyville and Canterlot, so they had no worries, even though some ponies thought otherwise. Rainbow and Twilight could care less what others thought, because their love was true, and just as the saying goes, true love cannot be stopped. There was still one task Twilight and Rainbow had to do, and it could end either good or bad. They had to tell the rest of their friends the big news, and give each of them their invites to the wedding. The couple had organized a meeting in Sugarcube Corner as a way to tell Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie, and Applejack the big news. Only Celestia knew what the outcome would be, and if the others would accept the couple's love for each other. The day came, as Twilight got ready, combing her mane so it didn't look like a mess. Rainbow was still sleeping after a long night of making love with her beloved Twilight once more. Her snoring made Twilight laugh, as she sat down the brush, and walked out of the bathroom. Twilight walked over to Rainbow's side of the bed, and gave her a gentle kiss on the lips, causing Rainbow to giggle. "Morning, sleepyhead," said Twilight in a playful tone. "Morning, egghead," replied Rainbow in a low voice, as she stretched her limbs. "How did you sleep?" "Just fine," said Twilight. "How was last night?" asked Rainbow, referring to their love making. "Last night was wonderful, Rainbow," replied Twilight. "Three hours of heaven." Rainbow giggled. "You were great as well, especially in the third hour," said Rainbow. "Did you think I was going to be easy on you?" replied Twilight. "Nah, I was just a bit surprised, seeing I don't strike you as the sexual type." "You'd be surprised what an egghead is capable of." Rainbow landed a small kiss on Twilight's lips, then pulled the covers off of her. "Enough talk," said Twilight. "You need to get ready. We've got to meet up with the others at Sugarcube Corner." "Oh. I totally forgot," said Rainbow, as she dashed into the bathroom. Twilight just giggled, then made her way out of the bedroom, into the kitchen. Spike had made pancakes for the two lovers, and was standing next to the oven. He looked at Twilight, noticing a look of doubt on her face. Spike was the only one who knew of Rainbow and Twilight's relationship, and he agreed with it, seeing he only wanted Twilight to be happy. Twilight had told him all about it the day she finally confessed her feelings to Rainbow, and his reaction was only a smile and thumbs up. "Twilight, you feeling okay?" asked Spike. "I'm just worried," Twilight replied. "What if they don't agree with it?" Spike had been around Twilight for a long time, and knew just how to fix the issue. "Twilight, they're your friends," assured Spike. "They'll understand. True friends will accept anything, no matter how shocking it may be." Twilight gave the dragon a smile, then sat down at the table, chomping down on some of the pancakes Spike had prepared. Ten minutes later, Rainbow joined the young dragon and Twilight, immediately noticing the tower of pancakes. Her eyes bulged from the amount of pancakes the dragon had prepared, and she had even started to pant like a dog. Twilight noticed Rainbow, and spoke before the pegasus could do anything. "Don't even think about it," spoke Twilight. "Grab some, and eat a DECENT amount." Spike objected to Twilight's words. "Do you seriously think that I wasn't aware of Rainbow's appetite?" claimed Spike. "That's why there's a pile of wobbling pancakes, Twilight." "Fine, but please eat a decent amount, Rainbow," said Twilight. "Alright, Twilight," said Rainbow, as she chomped down a total of six pancakes. Rainbow was quick, which didn't surprise Twilight, as she continued to eat her plate of three pancakes normally. After breakfast, Twilight and Rainbow set out for Sugarcube Corner. Both were nervous, yet confident at the same time, because even if they didn't tell the others about the marriage, they'd find out anyways. Weddings were special occasions throughout Equestria, never kept secret. Posters would be hung, the wedding would be held in an open area, and of course, gossip would spread like a virus. Rarity would probably be the first to find out, seeing she was very social with high-class ponies. The two arrived just outside of Sugarcube Corner within moments, seeing Twilight's castle wasn't far from the location. It was literally only a five minute walk from the castle to Sugarcube Corner, which normally wouldn't be a problem, but as nervous as the two were, it seemed as if a ton of weight was on their shoulders. The couple took deep breaths and held hooves, opening the door to Sugarcube Corner, the small bell above the door ringing. Inside, their friends sat at a nearby table talking about some random gossip. Pinkie was the first to see them, expressing a smile. "They're here!" Pinkie yelled, alerting the others. The rest of the group turned to face Twilight and Rainbow, noticing the two closer than usual. Twilight and Rainbow were froze in place. "Well, don't be strangers," said Rarity. "Come sit. You said you had something to announce." Twilight and Rainbow didn't want to move, but somehow managed to move. Before they could even sit down, Applejack caught sight of them holding hooves. "Um? Why are y'all holding hooves?" asked Applejack. "Oh my. Is one of you hurt," added Fluttershy. Rainbow and Twilight knew that now was the time to announce their marriage. Both of them took in a deep breath. "Is something wrong?" asked Rarity. They braced themselves, as Twilight spoke first. "We gathered all of you here, so we can announce something important, and it might shock you," spoke Twilight. The others expressed confused looks, as the couple spat out the news. "We are getting married!" they both exclaimed. The others immediately gasped, and expressed shocked looks on their faces. "Y-You're what!?" spoke Rarity. Rainbow decided to speak this time. "Twilight and I are getting married," she said. "We love each other, and have decided to tie the knot." Rarity's eyes bulged. "I-I'm speechless," spoke Rarity. The others couldn't speak, including Pinkie, the pony who usually ALWAYS has something to say. Twilight gave Rainbow a smile, as she spoke the question that could either go north or south. "This may shock you all, but it's true," she spoke. "Rainbow and I are in love, and we are getting married in a week. Now, Rainbow and I ask if you accept these invitations. If not, we understand." Twilight held out four envelopes, awaiting the others responses. "Well, it is quite shocking, darling," said Rarity. "But, we are your friends. Of course we accept the invitations, along with the fact that you and Rainbow love each other." Twilight didn't know what to say, but she didn't have to say anything, as her friend's spoke. "Love works in many ways," said Fluttershy. "If this is what you and Rainbow Dash want, I agree." "I agree as well," spoke Applejack. "Even though it'll take some gettin' used to, I'm all for it!" "Me too!" exclaimed Pinkie. "It'll be fun to throw you and Dashie a wedding party!" Rainbow and Twilight gave the others smiles, as they let out long breaths of relief. The hard part was over, and now Twilight and Rainbow could stop worrying, and focus on starting a new chapter in their lives, together as one. > Wedding > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- WEDDING Over the week of preparation for the wedding, Rarity had pitched in on decoration for the wedding, and Pinkie had been doing the planning for the afterparty. Vinyl Scratch had provided music, along with Octavia, because the two music ponies made an excellent duo when it came to coming up with creative tunes for weddings. Rarity had also pitched in on the designs for Twilight and Rainbow Dash's wedding dresses, and had promised to make them unique, seeing this was the first ever wedding between two mares. Princess Celestia had also caught the news of her student's marriage, and scheduled the wedding location in the Canterlot Castle Gardens; one of the most beautiful locations in Canterlot. Twilight was also a princess, so her wedding was more than likely going to end up in Canterlot, where all the royal weddings took place. Twilight may be a princess, but look at who she was marrying. Rainbow wasn't a pony of royalty in any way, but that was of no concern to Twilight. The wedding was truly unique. The ways of the wedding had to be altered a little, seeing it was two brides, not a bride and groom. At the ceremony, Twilight decided that both her and Rainbow would walk down the aisle when the time came, and instead of "Here Comes the Bride" playing, a song of Rainbow and Twilight's choosing would play instead. It took awhile to come up with a song, but finally Rainbow and Twilight agreed on a song, which was a instrumental tune called, "Unique Differences" that would be played by Octavia and her choir. It was a tune that matched them perfectly. The day had come for the two to be wed, and the usual nervous feeling surged through both of them. Rarity had helped each with their dresses, along with their mane-styles, and any other certain things that was required. Twilight stood in her dressing room, staring at herself in the mirror. She grew more and more nervous the longer she waited, while Rarity was helping Rainbow with her dress. She just breathed as normal as she could, giving herself words of confidence, as she heard Rarity open the door. Octavia's choir had started to play as well, meaning it was time. "Your lovely bride awaits," said Rarity, as Twilight made her way toward the door, only to starstruck by the sight of Rainbow. She was unable to mumble out a single word, as she stared at Rainbow in her dress. It was rainbow-themed, with a veil that glew in the sunlight, radiating Rainbow's beauty. The dress extended down the length of Rainbow Dash's body, even past her tail, with a rainbow pattern that glew. Her eyes were just visible through the veil. Rainbow was speechless as well, as she stared at Twilight. Twilight's dress was a dark violet color with special fabric that looked like shining stars. The dress extended down Twilight's entire body, just past her tail, and looked like a night sky, composed of blinking stars. The veil was darker violet color, her eyes just barely visible. Both of them just stared at each other with a long smile on their faces. "You look beautiful," mumbled Twilight, as she walked toward Rainbow. "So do you," complimented Rainbow. Rarity signaled both of them that they needed to hurry, so Twilight stood next to Rainbow. "Ready to do this?" asked Twilight. "With you by my side, I'm ready for anything," replied Rainbow. Both of them remained close, as they made their way out of the castle to just outside the Canterlot Gardens, watching as everypony turned to the two mares. Twilight and Rainbow remained strong, and slowly walked up the aisle, trying to focus on the main thing, and that was them getting married. Octavia's music helped to keep both of them calm, as they made it to the end of the aisle. They stood across from each other, smiling, as the music lowered, and Celestia started to speak. "Mares and gentlecolts, we are gathered here today to celebrate the union of Princess Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash. The strength of their commitment is clear. The power of their love, undeniable. Their bond is unique in many ways, and even though some may find their love strange, it is clear that they belong together." Twilight and Rainbow both smiled, as Celestia continued to speak. "Rainbow Dash, do you take Twilight as your lawfully wedded wife through sickness and health, until death do you part?" asked Celestia. "I absolutely do," replied Rainbow. Celestia turned to Twilight. "And, do you, Princess Twilight Sparkle take Rainbow Dash as your lawfully wedded wife through sickness and health, until death do you part?" she asked. "I do," replied Twilight, staring at Rainbow Dash. "May we have the rings, please?" asked Celestia. Spike presented two rings, settled on a pillow of some sort. One was a ring with special properties; when held in the sun, a rainbow streak appears along the ring's surface. The other was a simple gold ring with a gem embedded in it, cut to look like Twilight's Element of Harmony; magic. Rainbow's ring was placed on a chain, seeing Rainbow was a pegasus, and had no horn. The chain would go around her neck, safe from harm. Celestia grabbed both rings with her magic, and spoke again. "I now pronounce you mare and mare, you may now kiss," announced Celestia, placing Rainbow's ring on Twilight's horn, and Twilight's ring around Rainbow's neck on the chain. Twilight removed Rainbow's veil first, revealing Rainbow's rosy-pink eyes, followed by Rainbow removing Twilight's veil, revealing Twilight's deep violet eyes. Once the veils were removed, both of them finally kissed, sealing their commitment to each other forever. Both of them were more happy than ever before in their lives, as they released their kiss, listening as everypony applauded, and thinking of the wonderful future they'd have, now that they had officially tied the knot. Through the applause of the crowd, Rainbow whispered into Twilight's ear. “Just wait until you see what I've planned for the honeymoon,” she whispered. Twilight smiled at the sound of Rainbow's words, feeling her hormones start to race. “I can't wait, dashie,” replied Twilight, winking at her beloved Rainbow Dash, as Octavia's choir begun to play once again over the applause of the fellow ponies within the crowd.
