//------------------------------// // Chapter 11: Revenge: Part 2 // Story: Aftermath Of The Formal // by Shimmeringsun //------------------------------// The nurse walked into the room and even she could feel the atmosphere but she chose not to say anything. She continued to keep doing what she was doing, checking Sunset’s blood pressure and it was still low. “How do you feel Sunset?” The nurse asked. She finished up with checking Sunset’s blood pressure. “Still a little sore.” She replied back shyly. “We will give you more pain relief. As for your blood pressure here it is still counted low, we are going to give you more fluids so we can get it back up to normal.” Said the nurse, she turned to Luna who was staring out the window. “You’re her guardian, aren’t you?” The nurse who waited patiently for a response. Sunset noticed that Luna wasn’t listening, She looked over at Luna, she noticed that Luna looked lost in her thoughts, Was Luna second guessing everything now? She looked at Luna for a few moments before catching the older woman’s attention. “Luna.” interrupted Sunset. Luna turned around and cleared her throat.  “Sorry. Yes I am.” She shook her head to get rid of the thoughts. “A doctor will come in and speak to you soon about Sunset’s results from her scan.” “Thank you.” She replied back. “When does she get out?” She asked as she sat back down next to Sunset’s side. “I don’t think she will get to go home tonight, we don’t want to send her home when her blood is low, does Sunset eat a lot?” She asked. “She’s a vegetarian but she eats just as much as any normal teenager does.” She told the nurse. “We might need to check her blood, we want to see if she’s getting the right vitamins.” Luna felt guilty, she should have seen that coming, of course Sunset wasn’t eating right before she came to live with her, Sunset could tell what Luna was feeling. “Luna? What’s wrong?” Sunset asked with concern in her eyes. Luna put her hand on her forehead. “I should have known this. I should have made sure you were eating well.” “Luna, it isn’t your fault. You knew nothing about me, or what I did after school hours before I came to stay with you.” Sunset reassured Luna. Luna sighed. “I’m making sure you eat better when we get you home.” Sunset smiled. “I suggest you will have to do that. I think her diet has something to do with her blood pressure. For her being vegetarian, I know there’s things that can work as an alternative. We can give you a list of the things she should be eating at her age.” Said the nurse. Luna nodded. “Thank you.” After the nurse left the room, all Celestia felt was numbness, she couldn’t believe what Sunset told her, What can she say? What does she say? How does she go from here? She was honestly speechless, she could feel a cold sweat coming on, her hands starting to tremble.  She looked at Luna, her little sister too looked like she felt the same emotion, her skin looked pale, her color completely drained and her eyes fell, Is this going to break their bond? Oh please no... I don’t want that for them. Luna’s has worked hard for them to become close. I don’t want me to ruin that for them. Celestia thought to herself. She gave Chrysalis a look, who was sitting with her hands on her lap, playing a rhythmic tune quietly tapping them and whistling along, Chrys glanced back over to Celestia and gave an awkward smile, she looked at Luna and Sunset, trying to think of something that would break the awkwardness in the room. “Soooo...” she trailed off, trying to drag on the ‘o’ part, she got everyone’s attention. “Does anyone know someone that can lick their elbow?” She blurted out awkwardly, earning a chuckle from Sunset, a groan from Celestia and Luna who just sat there and face-palmed. “Chrys. You can’t be serious.” Luna said as she rolled her eyes, and rested her arm on the chair with her chin on it, She knows that Chrysalis doesn’t handle awkward situations well. Chrysalis nodded her head. “Deadly. Try it. Bet you can’t.” She egged on Luna with a nudge to her side. “Chrysalis! I’m not licking my elbow.” Luna said with a hint of frustration. She gave Luna a sly grin, “Do it and I’ll buy you video games for a month.” Chrysalis challenged her, making Sunset and Celestia stare in shock, they both knew that was a hard deal to turn down for Luna. Luna was tempted, really tempted to do it, but she was reluctant. “Chrys. No. You’re being silly.” She said, deadpan, waving her off. Sunset was smiling at the two, she thought it would be good to join in on the joke and back up Chrysalis, “Aww. Go on. Do it, do it.” She said excitedly. “See.” She tilted her head towards Sunset. “Even the kid is daring you.” She looked at Luna with puppy eyes, Luna just glared at the two of them. Then with a playful eye roll, Luna finally gave in, she lifted up her elbow and stuck out her tongue, she struggled, she tried again and again but still struggled, in defeat, she let out a huff and slumped down on her chair. “You totally set me up! That’s impossible!” She said as she folded her arms and looked away.  Chrysalis was nearly on the floor laughing with tears in her eyes. “Lu... oh sweet Lu... that...was too good to pass.” She said in between laughs as she patted Luna on the shoulder and wiped her eyes. Sunset was subtle with her laughter as she was trying her best not to laugh too hard, it was sore for her so she covered her mouth trying not to let one escape. Celestia just let out a chuckle at her sister’s antics, she smiled, it was nice seeing the three of them interact like that, she couldn’t help but feel like she was intruding on these moments that they shared together, she wished she could part of the mix as well, But, would she be accepted, by Sunset? Celestia cleared her throat. “I-I think I’d better go.” She said interrupting the hilarity, she stood up unable to get her balance at first, she was still shaken from what Sunset told her.  “I hope you get better soon Sunset. I’m truly sorry for what happened.” She smiled sadly at Sunset, Sunset muttered a quick ‘thanks’ to her awkwardly. Luna just gave her sister a questioning look, she knew that her sister was ready to break down at any moment but using all her will power to hold everything back, she could tell that she was taking it hard with what Sunset told them and all she wanted to do was avoid the situation. As Luna got out of her seat she went over to embrace her sister, “I’ll let you know what’s happening. Are you sure you don’t want to stay?” She said as she pulled away from the embrace, Celestia shook her head. “I can’t I’m afraid, I have a lot to do back home. Sorry Luna.” She said, feeling guilty for not staying but she couldn’t help but feel out of place. As Celestia left, Chrysalis stood up she ran after her, “I’ll be back in a moment.” She said as she left the room. “Celestia!” Chrysalis shouted as she ran up to the taller woman, she put her hand on her shoulder making her stop in her track. “You okay?” She asked concerned. Celestia shook her head sadly and looked at Chrysalis. “I don’t know what to feel Chrys. Where do I go from here with Sunset? How do I build a relationship with her without her thinking I’m someone else. She told me I’m exactly the same as her.” She sighed. She patted her shoulder, “Look Tia. Sunset has been through a lot. She’s spoken to Luna and me about her past and it’s not been easy for her. She hasn’t been treated well. Her childhood wasn’t great.” Chrysalis spoke sadly, she did feel sorry for what Sunset had to deal with in her past, especially her childhood, and what happened with her father. “And I don’t think she even had a childhood to be honest, she went straight into magic school, and never had someone to truly care for her and her wellbeing. From what Sunset told us I think that Princess only wanted her when it suited her, even if Sunset thought they were close when she was younger. But as she got older their relationship only got worse.” “Princess or not, if I ever get a chance to meet her, I’ll be sure to give her a piece of my mind.” Celestia said as she gritted her teeth, “I don’t care what Sunset did, but you do not kick a child out of their so called, ‘home.’ it angered me back then when I found out my parents kicked Luna out. Now, I’m feeling the exact same thing.” “You and me both Tia. I can’t imagine what Luna is feeling right now. She’s probably more angry than both of us put together.” Chrysalis replied, she could feel a hot steam of anger burning up inside of her as she thought about what The Princess did to Sunset. “Make sure she’s okay for me will you? Both of them. I feel terrible that I brought this on Sunset and Luna.” She looked up to Chrysalis, her eyes were full of sadness behind them. “Of course I will Tia.” She smiled, “And for what it’s worth, this is probably a good thing to happen, it got it out in the open and you two can finally have a breakthrough, remember Luna is there to mend whatever mistakes The Princess made with Sunset.” “I hope so Chrysalis. I do care about her, you know? Yes, I know she’s a student but Luna cares a lot about her, and I want to support both of them. I’ve never seen Luna like this before.” “I understand you Tia. I care for the girl too. However, If you are going to want some kind of a friendship with Sunset, you have to tell her that, you have to tell her that you will be here for her as much as me and Luna are, she needs people who she can trust and a shoulder to cry on and she’s going to need people that aren’t going to give up on her whenever she does something wrong.” Celestia looked up to Chrysalis with tired eyes, “But, what if she can’t trust me or doesn’t want to get close to me because all she sees in me is The Princess?” “Then make her see you aren’t The Princess. Make her see you are different from her, make her see who you are, not someone else, when she finally realises you aren’t like The Princess, you two can finally have some common ground.” She spoke reassuringly. “I guess. I just don’t know if Sunset wants anything to do with me.” She smiled sadly. “It’s gonna take some time for her to get used to you, but you have to show her that you want to be a part of her life, but you will get there if you try hard enough. It took Luna a while to get Sunset to open up, even with me, she was funny with at first.” “Yes, But you two managed to bond right out of the gate after that talk you had with her and as it goes for Luna, she’s practically latches onto her side, you know even before Luna took Sunset in the two of them had a bond.” Celestia said, as she gave a half sigh. “It may be that she will feel closer to Luna and me but remember we had to confide in her, and let her know she can trust us, I remember the first time I met her and she never left Luna’s side, but after I spoke to her and let her know she can come to me for support when she needed it.” “So you think talking to her will work?” She looked up to Chrysalis with hope in her eyes. “You can only try.” She replied back softly, “It would be the right move in the right direction, even if it might be rocky at first.” Celestia nodded. “Thank you Chrys. I needed that. Anyway, you better get back to them and I have a lot to think about.” She smiled and gave Celestia a quick hug, “Don’t worry about this too much Celestia. It will work out. If you and I can work out our differences then I’m sure as hell you and Sunset can work out yours.” She gave a small smirk. Celestia chuckled. “Well, I guess there is a bit of hope.” They both laughed and shared a hug goodbye, they parted ways as Celestia headed home and Chrysalis went back to Luna and Sunset. After Chrysalis left the room to get Celestia, Sunset and Luna sat in silence for a moment, the two of them being scared to make eye contact with each other. “Sunset?” Luna spoke up breaking the silence between her and Sunset. Sunset turned her head to face her. “Yeah?”  “Why didn’t you tell me who The Princess was?” She asked quietly. Sunset let out a sigh, knowing Luna was going to ask about that. “I was scared to tell you because I wasn’t sure how’d you react to it.” “Sunset, you should never be scared to tell me anything.” Luna spoke softly as she grabbed Sunset’s hand, “Even if you are scared, I still want you to come and talk to me.” Sunset looked at Luna. “I’m sorry for not saying. I thought you would second guess things, or you’d think I’m a bad person and not want anything to do with me. Everything that happened was basically my fault.” Luna looked at Sunset sternly. Making Sunset back away a bit, “W-why do you look angry?” She quivered, studying the look in Luna’s eyes, she’d never seen Luna this angry before. “Because, I don’t entirely agree that the whole thing was your fault and I wish you wouldn’t speak so lowly of yourself, because you are not a bad person Sunset.” She said as her blood was starting to boil, a cord in her body struck, a feeling that she could feel her anger rising. Not directly at Sunset though. Sunset was taken aback a bit at Luna’s words. ‘Why is she not blaming me? After what I did? She should be mad and saying that I deserved it.’ “But it was my fault Luna! I was horrible to her. I deserved everything I got! I basically disobeyed her. She had a right to chuck me out.” “Yes, you may have done that but she failed to see that you were only lashing out at her as a way to get her attention when you needed her the most.” Luna let that sink in for Sunset but Sunset wanted to argue against her, she didn’t agree with Luna. “But! it’s not her fault. It was mine. I was her student, and I messed up all because I didn’t get what I wanted quick enough and I acted like a brat.” “Don’t make excuses for her Sunset.” She said firmly. “Remember when I told you about my parents kicking me out?” “Y-yeah. But that’s not the same.” She said in a whisper. “Yes it is. My parents failed to see that I was struggling and needed help and I tried so many times to get their attention but they never noticed and that got me really depressed, they couldn’t see that I needed them and they only saw the bad in me and they choose to kick out their own daughter. I just don’t think it’s right for someone to do that, why do you think I refused to expel you after the Formal?” Sunset just stared at Luna, she didn’t know what to say but she couldn’t help but think she deserved all of this but she didn’t want to keep getting a scolding from Luna. “I don’t know why you didn’t expel me to be honest.” She shook her head in disbelief. “Because, I didn’t want to give up on you. You deserve so much more Sunset. You deserve to be given a chance. You’re so much like me, it is scary.” She laughed warmly at her, “You’re a great kid Sunset, but you have been let down by the people who were meant to be role models to you. I just want you to know, I will never give up on you and you have my word on that.” “Thank you so much Luna.” She said smiling as Luna pulled her in for a hug, “Thank you for not giving up on me.” She wrapped her arms around Luna, not caring if she felt any pain, she was just happy that Luna showed so much care for her. As Luna pulled Sunset in closer to her, she spoke softly in her ear, “I want you to know, how truly special you are Sunset. You’re incredibly talented, and all you need is a push in the right direction. Whatever happened between you and her, it was her loss because she’s going to miss out on someone amazing as you in her life and now I get to see that.” She held Sunset for a while longer, not one of them spoke but were just content in the embrace, she felt selfish for saying that although she couldn’t help but feel that way. As Chrysalis was coming back up to Sunset’s room she noticed a group of five girls over by the reception desk, she listened in to the conversation. “Can you tell us where our friend is? She was checked in today.” Rainbow Dash asked the receptionist. “What’s the name?” “Sunset Shimmer.” Rainbow said back. The woman behind the glass begin to type on her computer. “Currently she’s held up in the emergency ward, not many are allowed in, I have to get someone to confirm that it’s okay to let you see her.” “Urgh! Can’t you just let us in! We’re her friends!” Rainbow Dash yelled. Earning a tut from Rarity, she moved her out the way. “Rainbow Dash! manners.” She scolded her friend, “I’m sorry about my friend. Look, ma’m it would be very kind of yourself to let us see our friend. We haven’t heard what is happening and we would like to know that she is okay.” Rarity said in a polite tone. Chrysalis just cleared her throat, she had an amused look on her face. “Sorry for interrupting, but I can vouch for these girls. They’re friends of Sunset.” She said, all the girls turned round. “Who are you?!?!” Asked Rainbow frowning at the tall dark-skinned woman. “Woah, aren’t you an aggressive one.” She smirked and put her hands up, “My name is Chrysalis. I’m a friend of Luna.” All of them blinked in sync. Pinkie walked up to the woman. “Waaa-Wait? You’re friends with Vice Principal Luna? How’d you know Sunny? Oh! I know! You’re her mom right?” Pinkie Pie asked as her jaw dropped as she was checking the woman over. Chrysalis practically choked. She let out a nervous chuckle. The thought of them thinking she was Sunset’s mother was pretty funny to her. “Nice joke. I’m just here with Luna, she’s in the room with Sunset. So do you want to see her or not?” She asked pushing Pinkie out of the way. The girls nodded, and followed Chrysalis to Sunset’s room. “S-she’s just as s-scary as Vice Principal Luna.” Whispered Fluttershy, shivering as she walked up behind them. Chrysalis turned round a gave Fluttershy a look, but turned back round as she got up to Sunset’s room. “I think she heard you.” Rainbow spoke quietly back to Fluttershy. Chrysalis spoke up. “Wait here.” She noticed that Luna and Sunset were having a moment as she peered in the window, she was hesitant to go in at first as she didn’t want to disturb the two of them when they were talking. She knew what they would be talking about and she thought it would be better to let Luna talk to Sunset about it alone first. As Chrysalis walked back into the room she saw the two of them breaking from a hug, it made her smile at the scene. Sunset was the first to notice Chrysalis as Luna had her back to her. Sunset smiled at her. “Hey. Where did you run off to?” She asked, making Luna turn round and notice Chrysalis walking back up.  “I had to do something. Everything good?” She asked. The two of them nodded. “We were just talking.” Luna said as she sniffed. Sunset noticed that the girls were outside of the window. Pinkie basically had her face attached to it although the others were more subtle about it, well trying their best to not look noticeable, but they were eager to get in. “Um, what are they doing here?” She asked Chrysalis, pointing to the window. “I met them on the way back. Are they okay to come in? They want to see you.” “Yeah it’s okay.” She said, giving Chrys a small smile. Chrysalis nodded and told the girls they could come in, they were all happy to see Sunset. They ran up to her at the opposite side of Luna and Chrysalis were, the two of them decided to leave Sunset and go speak to the doctor. “Sunset! Oh, We were so worried about you!” Rarity said as she pulled her friend in for a hug. “Yeah! We saw you getting put into the ambulance. You were all covered in blood and you didn’t speak. It was really scary.” Pinkie Pie said as she emphasised the end of her words. “Who did it?!?!” Rainbow butted in. “Guys. I’m okay. I’m just sore and I have a few stitches” She pointed to her forehead, “and Rainbow, I don’t think you need to worry about it, I think Luna has it under control.”  “What’s Vice Principal Luna going to do? Suspend them? Give them detention? That’s not going to work! It was that Gilda and her gang wasn’t it? They won’t be hurting you anymore if they have to deal with me.” Rainbow Dash said angrily. She was beginning to put her hands into fists. Applejack pulled her back and calmed her down, “woah, nelly. Ya heard Sunset. Just leave it, I'm sure the Principals will have it under control.” Rainbow dash sat on a chair and growled, “Yeah right, if it was them I’ll make sure they will pay.” It was then Luna and Chrysalis walked back into the room and Luna got the end of the conversation Sunset and Rainbow were having and she knew that Rainbow was angry. “Miss Dash, I don’t think it’s wise of you to threaten harming other students, I get you are looking out for Sunset and I personally would like to strangle them but violence is never the right answer.” Luna said sternly making Rainbow let out a ‘meep’ while Sunset just smirked at Luna.   Luna turned her attention back to Sunset. “I spoke to the doctor.” “And?” “You’ll be getting home tomorrow as the nurse said. But, you have to take it easy for a few days, you need bed rest, for your brain to get everything back in motion, there’s no bleeding or bruising Inside but there is still a little bit of trauma to the head which will take time to heal. And as for your bruises and fractured arm I don’t feel safe sending you to school where it could possibly make it worse, so I’ve decided to keep you off for a couple of days.” Sunset kind of felt a little bit relief when Luna said she could have a couple days off school, she didn’t really want to go back and deal with it and she was scared in case something else happened, before she could speak it was then Pinkie Pie spoke up, letting out a gasp, “... ohmygosh, are you living with a VP Luna? But you said she was just your guidance counsellor, and then we asked if VP Luna was your mom and you were all like ‘no Luna isn’t my mom’ and you got all nervous about it, so, huh? What’s the deal with that? Is she really your mom?” Pinkie pie asked while she spoke fast.   Sunset blushed and she looked up to Luna. “Can I tell them?” Luna nodded. “I guess. But girls, this goes nowhere. You have to keep it between you all. Got it?” She said to the group. They all nodded and Sunset spoke up. “Luna is my guardian. She took me in the night of the Formal when she found out I was homeless. I was living in a shelter at the time and well, Luna didn’t want to leave me alone that night. She’s just making sure that I get better and that I'm getting the care I need. I didn’t want to tell you guys because it was personal to me and Luna.” “Why didn’t ya tell us you were homeless. We would have helped you out.” Applejack said. “I guess I was too scared to open myself up to you all, and truth be told I still am. I know you guys don’t know a lot about me but yet you are still here making sure I’m okay. I’m sorry for trying to distance myself from you guys.” Luna and Chrysalis smiled at Sunset as they were both at her side opposite the girls, they were glad that she was starting to be more open with them and making a start on the friendship with them. “We can work on that darling. We weren’t lying when we said we wanted you to be our friend.” Rarity said. “Thank you guys. I promise, I will try my best and I will open up to guys eventually. I just need time.”  “And we will be right here to listen.” Fluttershy said, while smiling at Sunset. All the girls went in to hug Sunset, as they all broke from their group hug, Luna spoke up. “Me and Chrysalis are going to head home. Are you okay with that? Or do you need me to stay?”  Sunset nodded. “Luna, I’ll be okay. Go home. You must be tired, and plus I have my phone so if I need anything I’ll just phone.” Luna smiled, she was scared to leave Sunset on her own for the first time since she’s been living with her, she wished she could take her home but she was glad she only had to stay in the hospital for one night, but she was worried about her having nightmares. “Make sure you phone me okay?” She said as she went in to hug Sunset, while Chrysalis done the same after Luna. The two women left the room and all the girls watched them, Rarity was the first to speak. “She really cares for you darling.” She said smiling as she watched her Vice Principal leave. “Yeah, I don’t think I’ve seen Vice Principal Luna that caring before.” Said Rainbow. “Luna is pretty awesome to be fair.” Sunset said smiling. “I didn’t think I would ever say that.” She laughed. The girls stayed for a while after Luna and Chrysalis, they just sat and chatted with Sunset. It was good for her as she felt like she was getting to know the girls more and she enjoyed herself even though she was stuck in a hospital bed. After Luna and Chrysalis grabbed something to eat at the burger place, Chrysalis dropped Luna off at the apartment, the two of them didn’t want to part ways just yet, it was the first time they’d spent together in a few years. Luna looked at Chrysalis as they pulled outside of the apartment. “You want to come up for a coffee?” She asked while blushing. Chrysalis smiled. “I guess, yeah.” The two of them got out of Chrysalis’s car and headed into the apartment. Luna opened the door and headed straight into the kitchen where Chrysalis followed her. Luna started to make the coffee while Chrysalis sat up on the counter next to her, Chrysalis could tell Luna was worried about leaving Sunset in the hospital. “Lu. I know what you’re thinking. She’ll be okay.” Chrysalis said as she placed her hand on Luna’s shoulder, Luna looked up and sighed. “I feel like I shouldn’t have left her. What happens if she calls out for me and I’m not even there?” She said sadly. “It’s one night Lu. She’ll be back home tomorrow. You need to stop worrying so much or you are going to make yourself sick.”  “I can’t help it, Chrys. Ever since I took her in that’s all I seem to be doing.” Luna said as she finished up making the coffee, the pair went into the living room and sat on the sofa, having tv on the background. “Come here.” Chrysalis said sitting on the sofa, she opened her arms and pulled Luna in for a hug. Luna didn’t hesitate she snuggled up to Chrysalis on the sofa and sighed in contentment. “Did you run after Celestia today after she left?” Luna asked Chrysalis. “Yes I did, and she’s completely beside herself with guilt. She wants to make it right with Sunset but I can tell she’s terrified to even give it a chance in case she won’t be accepted by her.”  “I think I need to talk to Tia. I don’t want her to beat herself up over what happened. I told Tia a few times to try and talk to Sunset but I guess she was always scared to approach her back then.” “I hope the two of them can work things out. It must have been hard for Tia to hear Sunset say that she was practically close to her in another world but it ended badly.” “And yet again, Celestia wins something over me, even in another world, how I am meant to compare to that? She said as she looked at Chrys as she placed her hand over her chest, “Sunset grew up in a castle, she had everything. What can I offer her? Video games and a bowl of cereal?” Luna said as she hinted a little jealousy, “I mean, I didn't even make sure she was getting the right vitamins or food! Tia would have been able to do that straight away!” Luna sighed and rested her head on Chrysalis’s lap, Chrysalis starting to stoke her hair, “You can offer her so much more than that Princess ever did. You have been showing that girl the love and care that she’s deserves since you took her in. You can’t think like that. Remember, she was the one that failed Sunset, she was the one that gave up on her, it’s her loss, Sunset has only stayed with you for a month and yet she has already let her guard down, she’s settled here and she’s became a lot more happier since.” Chrysalis spoke softly as she stopped stoking Luna’s hair only to move down to her arm, making Luna hum contently. Chrysalis spoke up again. “I’m going to let you in a little secret, When I took Sunset out the other night, she spoke about you and you know what she said?”  “What?” Luna asked quietly, getting up to look Chrysalis in the eyes. “She said, you have been the first person to ever really care about her the most. She told me she wouldn’t have known what to do if you weren’t here with her after what happened. She’s scared of losing you.” Luna shook her head. “She doesn’t have to worry about that. I’ll attach myself to her to make it clear that I would never leave her.” “I think you two need to sit down and talk. I think she’s still scared that one day she will mess up and you’ll just kick her out. She needs to know that she has a home with you.” Chrysalis looked at the time and it was getting late. “I better get going.” Said Chrysalis getting up from the sofa, although she really didn’t want to leave. Luna grabbed Chrysalis’s arm Luna looked at her with puppy eyes. “No. stay.” She said as she pouted. “Don’t give me that look.” Chrysalis replied, she hated when Luna gave her that look, the look in those eyes, oh those... eyes, Chrys shook her head as she stared deeply into them. “Please.” Luna said like a sweet innocent child, as she got up and stood in front of Chrysalis, her hands on her wrists, fluttering her eyes. “Stop Lu.” Chrysalis said, laughing at her, “I need to go.” Luna moved a strand of Chrysalis’s hair out of her face, her heart beating so fast, she leaned in and pulled Chrysalis in for a kiss. Once they broke apart, Luna smirked, she could see Chrysalis’s shoulders slumping, and a smile appeared on her face, “fine. I’ll stay.” said Chrysalis as she pushed Luna gently back on the couch and the two started kissing passionately.
