"Good morning Twilight."

Twilight looked over from the couch to see Sunset coming from the bedroom.

"Morning Sunset." She smiled.

Sunset took a seat next to her girlfriend. "I was surprised to wake up alone this morning. You have something on your mind?"

Twilight fiddled her thumbs. "No..."

"No?" Sunset raised her eyebrow. "You and me both know that's not true."

"Please, it's nothing." Twilight spoke.

Sunset took Twilight's hands in her own. "I don't bite you know. You can talk to me."

Twilight sighed.

Sunset tilted her head playfully. "Or is it something I'm not allowed to know?"

Twilight looked up at Sunset and saw her playful grin. She couldn't help by smile and shake her head in response.

"I was just thinking that's all. About us." She said.

Sunset nodded. "I think about us a lot too. The best way to get over thinking about something, is to share whatever it is with someone close to you."

"You'd want to talk about our relationship?" Twilight asked.

"Why wouldn't I?" Sunset responded.

"Well... It's just... we've always pushed it back before." She shrugged.

Sunset kissed Twilight forehead and squeezed her hands. Twilight blushed and put on a goofy grin.

"We can go forward whenever you're ready Twi. Besides, It's not like I haven't seen you naked before." She winked.

Twilight rolled her eyes and pushed her girlfriends chest. "Ugh you ruined it."

Sunset giggled. "Sorry sorry."

Twilight snorted. "Anyways, that's really kind of you Sunset but we should decide together when we are ready."

"I'm ready when you're ready." Sunset booped Twilight's nose.

Argh, Sunset and her empathy... Twilight thought.

Sunset saw Twilight look down sadly. This was clearly something that was bothering her. Sunset sighed.

"Babe, one day we'll get married, have a beautiful honeymoon, and start a real life with each other. We will love and grow old together to death do us part." Sunset said assuringly.

Twilight looked back up. "Promise?"

Sunset took Twilight and pulled her into a emotionally passionate kiss. When they broke they smiled and looked at one another. There was true love in their eyes.

"I promise."

Twilight woke up crying. She hasn't dreamed of her and Sunset since the accident... it was like the universe was trying to punish her with more pain.

Sunset awoke to the sound of Twilight's sniffles. She glanced over at the crying woman. Sunset frowned and pushed herself up.

"Twilight?" Sunset said trying to get her attention.

Twilight flinched to her name. She looked up at Sunset who was now up looking at her with concern in her eyes.

"I'm sorry." Twilight's tears hitting the blanket as she talked.

Sunset scooted a little closer and wrapped her arms around Twilight. Twilight threw her arms around Sunset neck and sobbed over her shoulder. Sunset let Twilight cry in arms as she caressed her back.

"Shh, it’s okay. I’m here." Sunset said patting her.

They stayed like that for a few minutes. Sunset really had no other idea what to do. Twilight's always been a bit... emotional. When the waterworks slowly died down, Twilight went and released her arms and looked at Sunset. Sunset stared back wiping the remainder of tears on her face.

"You want to talk about it?" she broke the silence.

Twilight shook her head. "No."

"Okay." Sunset smiled.

Twilight picked herself off the bed. "I need some coffee." She said exiting the room.

Sunset sighed. She didn't like seeing her friend girlfriend cry at all! Who knew she could cause so much dismay. One stupid mistake. She hated herself for that one stupid mistake. How could she be so foolish to pick up the phone while driving? Especially when it's raining out!

"I hate the rain." Sunset mumbled to herself.

She then got herself up off the bed and headed out the room. She found Twilight sitting at the kitchen table holding a mug in her two hands. She looked down in her cup rubbing the hot edges. Without saying a word, Sunset went into the kitchen and made her own cup. She took a seat across from Twilight and smiled at her. Twilight smiled back as the two woman sat in silence enjoying their cups of coffee.
