Twilight sat down at her seat behind the counter and pulled out her Daring Do book. As the hours went by, she helped customers with returns and check-outs and even had to deal with a couple late fees. All in all it wasn't a terrible day. Just boring like the rest. Though, she enjoyed boring. Boring meant more reading. And reading, to Twilight, was the least boring thing there was.
Another hour passed before Trixie entered the building, making her way towards the counter. She was wearing a large purple t-shirt which hung down over her right shoulder and shorts that were almost covered up by her shirt. On her feet she wore her sandals. Seeing her made Twilight smile as she set her book down. The magician quickly walked up to a nearby table and brought a chair over, setting it down next to Twilight before taking a seat.
"Hey, there," the blue mare said with a smile. "Book getting good?" She asked, sliding up next to Twi.
The purple unicorn set her book down on the counter. "It's getting there, yeah. Did you do anything today since I left? Buy any more skimpy outfits?"
Trixie let out a giggle, covering her mouth so as to make sure not to annoy anyone else in the library. "No, no more sexy clothes for my Twittles," she said, crossing her legs and putting her right arm around the mare. "So, there's actually... something I wanted to ask you..." she said, her expression turning from happy to somewhat nervous.
Twilight hesitated, reading her expression before nodding. "What is it?"
The blue mare kept silent for a few seconds before speaking. "W-Well... I-I mean we've... been dating for a while now... And I love you and you love me..." the mare stammered, looking away. "S-So, I was just wondering if... maybe you wanted to... I-I don't know, uh..."
Twilight thought for a moment before smiling, giving her a hug. "Of course..."
Trixie returned her smile and hugged back. "Trixie was hoping you'd say that..." A smile then spread across her face. "We need to do something to remember this moment," she cooed, gently rubbing Twilight's leg.
Twilight blushed. . "Trixie, what are you--"
"Shhh..." the blue mare whispered. "We're in the library..."
Soon, it was too much for the bookworm to handle and she quickly stood up.
"Bathroom. Now," she said, before walking away.
Trixie chuckled and quickly followed her. She certainly enjoyed the moments when Twilight gave in like this. Always made her feel good to be able make her girlfriend feel good. And there was something about doing it in public places she seemed to like.
The library had two types of bathrooms. The main bathroom with stalls for customers and single bathrooms out back for employees. When the two got to the mare's employee bathroom door, Twilight backed into it as Trixie pinned her to it, the two kissing passionately. Twi closed her eyes as she felt for the doorknob. Upon finding it, she opened it and the stumbled inside. The magician then used her foot to kick the door shut, before feeling for the lock so as not to be disturbed.
Twilight left the bathroom and quickly closed the door, using her magic to lock the door from the inside. Trixie needed some time to recuperate since she still wasn't that good with stamina. She then made her way back to the front counter to see a mare waiting. "Sorry to keep you waiting, ma'am," she said with a smile. "I had something that needed taking care of..."
The mare gave her a smile and nodded. "It's fine. I just got here."
Twilight slid behind the counter and stepped up to the mare. "So... How can I help you?"
Twilight and Trixie sat down at the counter at their local diner. It was a small dinner with a mini bar and a couple booths for those that didn't like sitting on the stools. The mares ordered a veggie burger and a soda to accompany it.
"So, it's really happening, then..." Twi said with a smile as she eyed the counter, her finger tracing a circle repeatedly.
"You're the one who said yes," Trixie said with a giggle. "But, you're right... It's hard to believe. But in a good way."
"Oh, of course," Twi said with a smile as she looked up at the mare. "A good way. Just... we've been friends since fillyhood... and then we dated for a few years..."
"And then moved in together," Trixie finished as she leaned in. "Trixie can not imagine being with another who isn't Twilight Sparkle."
The purple mare patted her leg before the waiter came over with their drinks, setting them down on the counter.
"Did I hear correctly?" He asked with a smile. "Are you two getting married?"
Twilight blushed and eyed her drink while Trixie gave him the thumbs up. "You bet," the magician said with a wide smile.
"Meal's on the house," the waiter said with a chuckle, before leaving to make their sandwiches.
"Is it on the house until we're married?" Trixie called after him.
"Don't push it," the stallion called back jokingly.
The magician chuckled and turned to Twilight. "Yay... Free food..."
Twilight smirked and took her drink. "More importantly... the wedding," she said, holding out her glass.
Trixie took her own and clinked it against Twilight's. "To the wedding."
The two mares entered the park, hand-in-hand as they made their way to one of the benches. Sitting down, Trixie laid her head on Twi's shoulder. It was a night night at the park, even though it was smack dab in the middle of the city. The moon was full and the stars were out. All that was missing were the meteors.
Twilight pulled out her phone to check for any updates on the meteor shower. "Hmm..." She thought aloud. "They're still on their way, though they're smaller than originally anticipated. Should be a few minutes."
"Smaller?" Asked Trixie with a pout. "Trixie wanted to see big balls of fire rain down from the sky."
"That's... slightly worrying..." Twilight muttered as she put her phone away.
"How many do you think there'll be?" Trixie asked as she watched the sky. "A lot?"
The purple smiled and put her arm around her. "I'm sure there'll be a decent amount..."
The two kept staring up at the sky for a few more minutes before they saw the first one. Immediately following were about a dozen more. Maybe 20 total. It was hard to tell since they were so far away. The two mares watched in awe before Twilight felt something was wrong. Looking around the park, she saw no one else, nor did she hear the sound of cars driving passed. Silence. Pulling out her phone, she checked the web site again for info on the meteor shower. Feeling her mare friend move so suddenly, Trixie lifted her head and watched her.
"What are you doing?" Asked the magician, curious as to why the bookworm wasn't watching the meteors.
Refreshing the web page, Twilight let out a gasp. There was a warning as an update for everyone to remain indoors. The meteors were set to impact the city.
"Oh, shit..." Twilight gasped, showing Trixie the page. "We need to move. Now."
Reading the warning, Trixie's eyes went wide. "Oh, shit is right. Let's move."
As they stood and looked up, they noticed the meteors had gotten closer, one heading right for them. The two let out yells of terror and took off full speed. Small debris from the approaching meteor crashed all around them, making them cover their heads in fear. It wasn't long before the main one hit, sending the two flying through the air and tumbling across the grass. A few distant BOOMS could be heard as Twilight lifted her head, coughing.
"Trixie?" She asked, gently shaking the mare. Getting no response, Twilight nervously checked her neck for a pulse. "Oh, thank god..." She sighed, also holding her fingers near the mare's nose to see if she was breathing. She was.
Getting up, Twilight turned to look at the impact crater. Surprisingly, it wasn't that big. It was about as deep as a soccer ball is thick and had the circumference of a trash can lid. No wonder why there wasn't much damage done to the area or the mares, though it was still odd that the crater wasn't bigger. Walking over to it, Twilight knelt down and waved the smoke away. Inside was a small, white rock about the size of a tennis ball. Slowly reaching out, Twilight gave it a tap. Cold.
"The hell?" Twilight asked herself as she picked it up. Not that heavy. "What is this?" The sound of Trixie coughing pulled her focus from the space rock back to the fallen mare. "Trixie!" She gasped, rushing over to her and kneeling down. "Are you okay?"
"I..." Trixie started, before coughing and rolling onto her stomach. "I think so..." she groaned, slowly getting to her feet.
"Here," Twi said, helping her up as she gently took her arm. "Could've been worse, right?"
Trixie let out a soft chuckle, followed by another cough. She then looked over at the crater. "Wow... Anything in there?"
Twilight smiled, holding out her hand with the space rock in it. "This white rock. Strangest thing is that when I pulled it out, it was cold," the mare explained as Trixie picked it up and looked it over.
"Cold?" She asked, rubbing it with her thumb. "Smooth... Kind of looks like a seed... Like a... white... space seed..."
The purple mare smirked and gently took it back. "Come on," she said, putting it in her pocket. "I'd say we've seen enough."
Nodding, Trixie put her arm around Twilight as the two turned and began heading back. As they did, fire trucks, cop cars, and a couple ambulances pulled up around the park. The police shone their lights on the two as a voice came over a loudspeaker.
"Please proceed to the nearest ambulance immediately and clear the area," the voice ordered.
Letting out a sigh, Twilight eyed the magician. "I guess we need a check-up first."
"Suppose it is for the best..." Trixie said, sharing Twilight's annoyance.
The two just wanted to get back to their apartment and rest for the night, but now it seemed they needed to get checked for possible cuts and bruises. Even though it was the safe thing to do, the two didn't really feel hurt or injured in any way but it wouldn't hurt to find out from professionals.
In a darkened bedroom lay a blue alicorn mare, wearing a blue nightgown and reading a book. Next to her was a white alicorn mare, wearing a white nightgown and half asleep. The TV was on the news channel when a report of the meteor shower came on.
"In breaking news tonight, the meteor shower expected to pass us by ended up changing its course and striking different parts of the city." The blue alicorn lowered her book as the report went on. "No casualties have been reported and fire and rescue has been dispatched--" Scenes of the crash sites began cycling in the background, showing the damage done to the city. In one shot was the park, with Twilight and Trixie approaching an ambulance.
The alicorn closed her book and looked at the mare beside her. "Sister?" She asked, receiving a questioning groan. "I think I have found what we've been waiting for..."
Twilight and Trixie dropped onto their bed with a groan, both mares feeling exhausted. After a long day of waiting for the meteor shower and that romp in the library bathroom, combined with the excitement of almost getting killed by a smooth white space seed, the two simply wanted to rest.
"Feel like watching TV?" Asked Twilight.
Shaking her head, Trixie laid her arms above her head. "No... Shower?"
Sighing, Twilight rubbed her forehead. "No..." She then turned to face the mare. "More celebratory sex?"
Trixie hesitated in thought before shaking her head. "Unfortunately, even Trixie is far too exhausted to partake in sexual activities..."
Letting out a chuckle, Twilight gently punched her side. "But, not too tired to be dramatic, huh?"
"Never too tired for drama, Twilight Sparkle."
Giggling softly, they both stared at the ceiling. Kicking their sandals off, both mares pulled off their top and slid out of their pants, lazily lobbing the clothing onto the floor. Staying in their underwear, they slid under the covers and got comfortable before turning to face each other. Holding the other close, the two drifted off to sleep with the feeling of the other's breath against their face.
