Another Chance

Ch. 10 (Peace At Last)

After the incident at the school, Principal Celestia decided to cancel classes all together. Thank goodness. After the past few days, it will be nice to actually relax, rather than having to worry about one thing after another.

"So, how does it feel to be engaged to someone?" I heard Citron asking Lemon from the other room.

"It's different, not that I'm complaining." She said with a long pause following. "But don't you think we're a bit to young for that?" She asked Citron.

He chuckled softly. "Not really. As long as you're with someone that you love, that's all that matters." I heard him say.

I looked back from the couch to see her nod softly in reply to Citron. "Yeah, true. That's really all that matters." She said with a smile.

"So what are your plans for today, seeing as how school got cancelled thanks to a certain wife of mine." He said, looking over at Rose.

"Bite me, Citron." She replied.

"Later." He said without skipping a beat, a devious grin forming along his lips.

"DAD! I don't want to hear about your sex life." Lemon pouted.

"Well, no worse than what you and Sonata have done in the past. I wasn't even living with you two and heard about it." He said, immediately getting a blush from both me and Lemon. "That's what I thought." He said with a smile, drinking from his mug.

She gave a defeated groan and shook her head. "And this is why I question if I'm related to you or not." She stated.

"Well, you two do act an awful like each other." I said, getting up from the couch and walking over to Lemon, resting my head on her shoulder.

"Plus you two do look almost identical, only difference is your genders." Rose said, walking over to the cabinet, pulling out some drinks for me and Lemon.

Lemon shrugged and then looked up at me. "What would you like to do today?" She asked, reaching up, grabbing my hand.

I shrugged softly, not really having a clue one what to do. "I'm happy with sitting at home all day." I said, wrapping my arms around her shoulders.

"Aw, that sounds boring." Citron said. "How about this. I give you two some money, you two can go on a date, do whatever and buy whatever." He said, pulling his wallet from his pocket.

"Wait, you don't have to do that." Lemon protested.

Of course, he ignored her and placed down a small stack of cash. "There should be about four hundred right there. You two go and enjoy yourselves, besides me and Rose could use some alone time." He said, pulling Rose to him, her face immediately lighting up.

Lemon sighed and grabbed the cash. "And on that note is our que out the door, though before you two start your fun, can we get a ride first?" She asked.

Citron looked up and groaned. "Yeah, I guess so." He said, getting up from his seat and grabbing his keys. "Alright, c'mon you two." He said, heading towards the door with me and Lemon following behind him.

We arrived to the mall a few minutes later, and of course it was filled with a bunch of highschoolers. Well, kind of figured as much, seeing as how school was cancelled for the day.

"Sonata! Lemon!" We heard Pinkie called out. We looked around to see the others at the food court waving us over to them.

"Hey how's it going everyone?" Lemon said.

"Pretty good, though it's strange as how school got cancelled today." Pinkie said, pulling her phone from the portal to an alternate dimension that lurks in her hair.

"Yeah... Strange." Lemon said, looking down.

"Everything alright, darling?" Rarity asked.

"Yeah, it's been a rough few days and it feels strange to actually have a day that you don't actually have to worry." She stated.

Rarity nodded softly and then looked over at me, then down at my hand to see the ring. "Oh, my. When did you get that?" She asked.

Both me and Lemon blushed, small smiles forming along our lips. "I got it this morning." I said with a big grin.

"Well that's not just a normal ring." She said, instantly pausing after. "O-Oh my goodness! Are you two..?" She asked.

We both nodded. "Yup, engaged as of this morning." Lemon said tenderheartedly.

Instantly all the girls starting congratulating us. "So have you two came up with a date yet?" Sunset asked looking over at us, holding her drink in hand.

"Well, not yet. We just got engaged today." I said, scratching the back of my head. "Though figuring out a date for a wedding wouldn't be a bad idea."

"Yeah, we need to talk to dad about that when we get back." Lemon said.

"Well, that's good news to hear. It's about time yall finally get something good going for ya." AJ said.

"Wait, what do you mean?" Sunset asked.

"Haven't they told yall?" AJ replied.

We froze and looked at everyone. thinking back to our problem with Blueblood. "I believe we did, but if not, we'll recap." Lemon said, looking down.

We took our seat and began to explain the past, as well as going into detail of the past twenty four hours. Finally after we got done explaining everything, the others looked at us in horror.

"And to think, I was once attracted to that trash." Rarity stated.

"It's alright, we all make mistakes." Lemon said with a soft smile.

"Well, yall put your minds t' rest. As long as we're around, we're gonna make sure that he don't come anywhere near yall." AJ said with a cheerful smile.

We both nodded and smiled. "Thank you AJ." I said.

"Not a problem at all. You two are our friends so why wouldn't we make sure you two are safe." Sunset said with a tender smile.

We finally managed to relax a bit and looked at one another. "Well, how about we get to shopping?" Rarity said with a smile. "I have found a dress that I believe would look amazing on you Sonata. And Lemon, you have got to take a look at this outfit that I found, I am sure that you will fall in love with it." Rarity said, leading the pack.

"Well so much for getting out of here at a reasonable time." Sunset teased.

"Oh hush, I found you something as well Sunset. Also, there is a store here that I believe you two will find very...interesting" Rarity said, smirking softly.

"Is she talking about that one store with the blindfolds and the stripper poles and th-" Pinkie was silenced as Dash placed her hand over Pinkie's mouth.

"Yes Pinkie, she was talking about that store." Dash said, blushing softly.

Our faces lit up tremendously as we followed them. "W-why do we need stuff like that?" I asked.

"Oh, trust me. For you two, I'm pretty sure that you will find SOMETHING you will enjoy." Sunset teased.
