This is the first of a two-parter. It was getting too long and I dont wish to have such a vareity in word lengths. Next part next Satuday


“Ah! Princess! Ya… what…” AJ bowed deeply to the Princess of the night, not really sure how to react. It was not every day one was from all the looks sleeping in the same room as the Princess of the night, never mind AJ marehood crush. (AJ had always like Luna, even NightMare Moon Luna.) She was not sure how to act so she just bowed. Her hat slide from her head and she scrambled after it while a certain Princess we all love was laughing. AJ finally managed to get her hat back but was now inches from Luna.


“Well my wonderful friend, May we get started? Tia said that it would be best for us to room together.” Luna was a magnificent mare, and AJ could not help but feel a slightly bit aroused in her presence. Sure, she was pretty and all, all that flowing mane, that tail... Ohhh, it got AJ hot just thinking about it. But this was the Princess so she clamped down on her urges and went about the business of unpacking. Luna and her caught up on the few things, mainly apples, and Luna then suddenly asked” What stallion has caught your eye Loyal Apple Jack? You are very distracted.”


Ah… Ah… not… well ... not one in particular…” AJ blushed and Luna giggled.” Ah not really used ta looking fer one ye know Princess?” Luna held a hoof up” Please call me Luna.” AJ nodded and then continued” Like Ah was saying Princes… Luna, Ah not much time. A few have come by... and Ah... well... Ah not really… a stallion kind of mare if ye get mah drift.” AJ blushed furiously and was saved as there was a knock on the door.


“Room Service for the Royal Princess and her guest.” A pony with a sliver tray entered the room with a long train of trays, full of the best offerings. AJ let out a sigh as Luna started to stare and gush over all the food. Afterward being back for a few years one would think the Princess had only recently come back from the moon, but thinking back on what all she has missed, new food would be a treat.


“AJ have you tried this thing called a creep?! It’s wonderful! Along with ketchup and this yellow tangy stuff!” Luna gushed. She was eating crepes with ketchup and mustard. AJ facehoofed over this, it all rather comical once one realized this was the Princess of the Night, Co-Ruler to Celestia, who was not best alicorn or best princess. AJ was admittedly biased to the Princess, being as she was one of the few ponies who not only knew the true form and kindness of Luna, but also knew she was genuine in her actions and deeds. Which to a pony like AJ was everything, even the kitchen sink everypony always went on about. AJ still had yet to figure that one out, since no one seemed to cart about a kitchen sink with them. She tried one day, and it was awfully tiring. She blinked and gave the hoof in front of her face the oddest look” How did this here hoof get here?” She asked before Luna burst out laughing.


“I put it there my faithful friend. You seemed lost in your thoughts... and a kitchen sink? We... I do not know what this entails for our lessons but is one needed today?” Luna asked quizzically, before booming out” WE REQUIRE A SINK FROM THOU KITCHEN!” AJ looked shocked and tried to hide as suddenly and almost as if someone thought the Princess needed one, it appeared on a cart with a very scared pony pushing it” You…yo.. your kitchen sink Princess….. please oh Celes... Luna please don’t kill me! I have foals!” From the dismay on Luna’s face and AJ trying to calm the dear mare down, it was obvious not everyone was used to hearing the Lunar inclined being.” Please mare who brought this, Luna is not mad with you... she... I am quiet thankful. If you wish on the Winter Moon Celebration I can give you a front row seat if you wish… and can even visit on Nightmare Night. Though I will not be gobbling anyone up.” Luna laughed at this, Nightmare Night having become the alicorns favorite holiday after Hearth’s Warming Eve. What pony didn’t enjoy the tail of how Equestia came to be?


The next day, after a few more bottles of that cider Luna so dearly loved, AJ awoke to a snoring princess cuddling her like a doll. Maybe even a blanket. However the hoof placement was rather… in intimate place alongside AJ backside. One may even dare call it... a lover’s embrace. But surely nothing had happened had it? AJ searched her foggy memory, preferring to keep her eyes closed to the damned sunlight seeping in.


(From this point until I say is a flashback from AJ. It is a flash back. So it will be first person!)


Ah don’t rightly know Luna. One does wonder why Celestia is such a flank. She banished the most wonderful pony to the moon she did.” I coughed as some of that fancy stuff Luna really liked kept coming in. I wondered what it was, as “it had no apple flavoring, and while I’m not biased to apples, they just happen to taste the best. The greatest.”


“We would say thou has every right to be biased young apple. Thoust apples are the most wonderful apples We have tasted.” Luna was using that fancy Canterlot voice. Though I was a bit confused I must admit. How did she read my thoughts? Weren’t they in my head? Or did princess have some weird ability to read minds? I must have had a Derpy expression on my face, bless that poor mail mare, as Luna then explained.” Thou mentioned not being biased to apples. Yet We find thou should be. We do not remember much of fruits before We came back, but thoust have the best ones. And those... Zapp apples are the best jam. The Royal Treasury complains quite often about the purchase of them.” So that is where they kept going.


Ah was wondering... what did ya do* hic* do to make *hic* Celestia send ya* hic* to me?” I asked with a curious wondering, as no pony had told me.” All Twilight said was ta come ere.” Hiccup. Man, that umm… cider? Where did cider come from? It was SAA for sure… but now… I don’t really remember … selling this to Luna… OR any pony... in fact ... this... this was my cider!” Luna! Ya have been in mah bags haven’t! This is mah special cider!” And with that I began to cry. While the Apple family was in no way poor, my special cider was one of the few things I took pride in for being mine alone. Only family ever got it, since to make it meant a special time process and it only made a few barrels each month.


“Ah don’t know…” I said with some apprehension. The water looked awful high from up here on Luna’s back. IT was a deep enough pool granted, being a proper lake. But I still normally didn’t like heights. I didn’t trust them. It just aint natural for an Earth pony like me to be this high. However I didn’t have long to think about this as in a few seconds the water rushed up to me and I sank lik a brick before I remember what to do.
