It was a brand new day in the mysterious Everfree forest, which was the home to Discord and Twilight Sparkle. The forest held many surprises, such as which the floor was checkerboard coloured, eggs flowed from the waterfall, and above in the sky floated pieces of land which held a pyramid of cards. Next to the card pyramid was pink clouds. A few lakes were also filled with chocolate milk. Another oddity in the sky was a blue and pink trail, which appeared to be following a young alicorn.
The young alicorn known as Twilight was soaring above the wide open sky, in her line of sight, she could see the card pyramid, the Tatzlwrum. Said, Tatzlwurm was laying in its usual hole. She could also see her friend cheering for her below. A small blush formed on her face at such praise followed by a small giggle.
Down below on checkerboard patterned floor was a draconequus known as Discord, he watched as Twilight flew throughout the sky. "Nice wing formation keep it up," instructed Discord, "And remember not to crash into anything we don't want another crash landing."
Twilight merely rolled her eyes in amusement. "Sure thing. Mum," joked Twilight, as an irritated sigh left the draconequus.
Discord turned his head. Twilight that was distracted crashed into a pink cloud. "Not again, aaaaaahh!!!"
Twilight flew blinded before crashing to the ground and spraining a wing. "Owww," Twilight moaned in pain as she tried to move her wing.
Discord walked over to the fallen young. "Lesson two never become distracted otherwise you'll find yourself in a crash landing," Discord remarked, as he snapped his talons healing her wing.
"You could've taught me that," Twilight retorted while mumbling, before standing back on her hooves.
"But in all seriousness are you okay?" Discord asked, still slightly concerned even though her wing was healed.
"Yeah, thanks Discord," Twilight answered with a sincere smile, before wrapping her hooves around his mid-body in an embrace. Discord hugged back with a smile. The embrace lasted around thirty seconds before both alicorn and draconequus let go.
"Let's get back to flying," said Discord, spreading his own mismatched wings, Twilight followed suit and opened her wings. In moments the pair took off and began to soar in the blue sky. Discord, however, flew laying on his back like it was supported by a nonexistent hammock.
"This is amazing, thank you Discord. Thank you for such an amazing birthday present," Twilight said, with a smile. She flew closer to the spirit and gave him a quick peck on the cheek. This, however, caused Discord to slightly blush. Twilight however giggled.
"You're welcome, Twi. You're welcome." That was all that was said throughout the rest of the flight. Though Discord occasionally thought about the event that transpired. Not long after their flight, the two landed.
....
Discord and Twilight both sat in the lake filled with chocolate milk. Twilight had her head resting on her hooves that were on the edge. "This feels so great," Twilight sighed in satisfaction. Next, to her, Discord nodded in agreement.
"I agree, Twi," Discord said with a sigh of his own as laid back. Like Twilight he laid his head on his paw and talon.
...
After getting out of the lake, they dried themselves off. "That was so relaxing. I feel like a new pony," Twilight said, walking next to the draconequus, he nodded in agreement.
"I know what you mean, my dear. The chocolate milk is a way better substitute than water. I too feel like a new draconequus," said Discord. However, he still too felt guilty about placing that wretched curse on her if only he could take it back.
...
After a few conversations, they finally made their way back to the card pyramid. "So, Twilight what do you want to do now?" Asked Discord.
Twilight put a hoof to her chin in thought. After a moment she heard her stomach grumble, which caused her to blush. "Lunch?"
"Sure thing," said Discord, as he snapped his talons conjuring a blanket underneath them, with a picnic basket. Twilight took a seat, Discord than took a seat next to her.
She opened the basket and looked inside. After searching through the contains she pulled a daisy sandwich. She took a bite with a satisfactory smile. "Discord, this is really good, thank you–" Discord interrupted by sealing her lips with a talon.
"Twilight, it's nothing really," Discord said with a smile. He moved his talon away, before grabbing a piece of coal.
Twilight decided to eat lunch in silence knowing a familiar draconequus wouldn't want to hear anything sappy.
...
After the picnic, Discord and Twilight walked toward the card pyramid. Discord opened the door and walked inside, with Twilight following right behind. Inside there were two doors. Twilight took the one on the right, and Discord took the one on the left.
Once she was inside the grabbed her dairy with an ink container and quill and began to write.
Dear diary, this is Twilight Sparkle. I'm writing this from within my room inside the card pyramid. I've only been living here a couple of days and already having a blast. Anyway, it's getting close to night time. Discord is really the bestest friend I have. I love him with all my heart, not in that way. But, in a first friend way. I would be lying if said I completely didn't have a crush on him. Oh well, the main reason I'm writing this is to cherish my friendship with my BFF. Tomorrow will be a great day, knowing him it'll be fun. Good night Discord.
Twilight closed the book and put it away, she than trotted to her window. Looking outside she could see the starry night sky. She smiled, touching her hoof to her chest feeling touched. The stars were aligned saying, "Night, Twilight. Love you."
"I love you too, Discord," the young alicorn said with a smile. The than hopped into bed before falling asleep, allowing sleep to take her in its mighty hold.
