Daughter of Sunburst

Chapter 16

The next morning, Starlight and Sunburst are talking in their bedroom while Sunset is snooping outside their door. She ends up hearing some things she has a feeling she wasn't supposed to hear until later. "Sunburst, my sunshine, should we tell her?"

"Tell her what?" asks Sunburst.

"That you managed to get me pregnant over the last month of our honeymoon," replies Starlight.

"We'll tell her tonight at dinner," responds Sunburst.

"Okay," replies Starlight.

A few minutes later, Sunburst leaves the room, clueless that Sunset was listening in to everything he and Starlight were saying. After all, he doesn't care since he thought they were talking in private. He goes to the kitchen and begins to make breakfast for the three of them. As he does, Sunset just watches him from behind her book that she's reading at the kitchen table.

"Good morning, dad," says Sunset, closing her book.

"Good morning, sweetheart," Sunburst replies.

He then brings her plate over to him with his magic and plops some pancakes and fresh fruit onto it and sends it back over to her with his magic once again. A few minutes later, Starlight comes out and sits at the kitchen table and he makes her a plate and sends it over to her with his magic. He then brings over his own plate with his magic and sits down at the table with them. The three then enjoy their breakfast.

After breakfast, the three go out and down to the Crystal Pier and enjoy playing carnival games, riding coasters, and riding the Ferris wheel for several hours. The three have a blast and even go out for lunch and ice cream afterwards. They're such a happy family and they'd have it no other way. Sunburst is glad his daughter is warming up to Starlight. It really puts a wide smile on his face.

That afternoon, the three return to the house for a few hours before going to have dinner with Cadence, Shining Armor, Twilight, Celestia, and Luna.

At dinner with Shining and the and princesses, they share stories and laughs and have an all around good time. After all, who wouldn't enjoy a dinner made by Celestia herself? Celestia is a good cook, they can all agree to that, especially Luna. They all continue to talk for several hours before parting ways.

Two hours later, back at their house, Sunburst and Starlight break the news to Sunset.

"Honey, we have something to tell you," says Sunburst, "now don't freak out!"

"We're expecting a foal!" exclaims Starlight.

"I already knew, I kind of snooped outside your door this morning," replies Sunset, finally letting the truth out, "but I'm happy about it just the same. I can't wait to be a big sister. Honestly, I can't."

Sunburst surprisingly doesn't get mad at Sunset and tells her that it's okay and tells her she still needs to go to her bedroom and consider how much snooping undermines privacy. Sunset agrees and goes off to her room. She knows her father has the right to punish her, she did wrong after all. On the upside, though, at least now she can read in pure silence.
