//------------------------------// // Chapter 2 Hearth's Warming Party Part 2 // Story: A Discord Hearth's Warming Eve // by Chaos04 //------------------------------// Discord was sitting on his couch (which was on the ceiling) the expression on his face wasn't anger but hurt. After last Hearth's Warming, he'd think Twilight would invite him, but seems not. “Why would she not invite me?” He wondered though it was quite obverse Twilight think he'd ruin the holiday. In a matter of seconds, a scroll arrived in green flame. He caught it in his paw, opening it he read the content. “Dear Discord, I'm so sorry I should've invited you or get one of my other friends too. Also, I should've known you wouldn't mess up the holiday. Twilight.” His eyes finished scanning scroll, a small smile formed on his mismatched face. _____________________________________ Back in the now decorated castle of friendship Twilight was hanging with her friends. “Don't worry Twilight. Things will be alright,” Pinkie said, looking at Twilight; she looked nervous maybe even worried. The gifts were already set (there was even one for Discord if he showed up.) “Pinkie's right, darling. You need to stop stressing you're going to ruin your complexion. Take deep breaths,” Rarity said. Twilight took a deep breath in, then out feeling a little relaxed. “Thanks, Rarity, I really needed that.” Twilight pulled her into a friendly embrace. Though she was still a little worried. It was time for the gifts and Discord still hadn't responded. The Crusaders and Spike sat together. In the middle was Sweetie Belle, on her right was Apple Bloom and on her left was Scootaloo, behind them was Spike. “Happy Hearth's Warming Spike.” Sweetie Belle and the Crusaders gave him three presents. He hugged them with a small smile, before opening his presents. “Hope ya like it,” Apple Bloom said. “We really put a lot of thought into them,” Scootaloo added. Twilight sighed, walking towards the tree (which had an extra present then counted) curiously she opened it, revealing a small Draconequus. “Disco–” “I know, I read your apology letter and I forgive you,” he cut her off. She had tears running down her cheeks, tightly she hugged him. “But it was wrong of me to not inv–” Discord covered her mouth with a talon, using his paw he lifted her head up. On the ceiling was a set of mistletoe, blushing slightly they looked at each other before they pecked each other on the lips, which took her breath away. She looked at him lovingly, before going into another kiss. “I love you Discord.” “Awwww,” everypony else cooed, causing the two to blush. It seemed like a magical night. “I love you too Twi,” he said, baring a sweet smile. It was a very magical night indeed as they finished the gifts. “Ya got yourself a fine mare,” Applejack said, before glaring, “Don't ya mess it up or ah'll chase you down like a bull on cider rush.” Discord looked at the farmer pony confidentiality, “Don't worry A.J everything will be fine.” That moment Twilight walked out, in a lovely dress causing Discord's heart to leap out of his chest (literally jump out of his chest.) Twilight giggled. She loved how he reacted, now that they were an item she could expect things to go well as long as she had him by her side.
