Luna and Thunderlane walked threw the two large doors that opened up to the throne room. Celestia was busy eating a banana and surprisingly, Twilight Sparkle was sitting next to her, both chatting about studies and such. Luna approached her sister, and Thunderlane bowed toward his ruler.
"Hello Luna, and hello Thunderlane, how has your day been?" Celestia turned from her student to speak to Luna and her guest, but then turned back to take a bite of her banana.
"Great sis, I showed him the castle, court yard, and dinner, we had such a good time." Luna winked at Thunderlane, and he grinned. Luna couldn't help notice Twilight Sparkle catch the wink, but she seemed to brush it off.
Celestia swallowed, "Good, I'm glad to hear that, the day is coming to a end now, and its almost time for Thunderlane to go home." Luna's heart sank, and she looked over at Thunderlane, he was smiling, but she could see the sorrow in his eyes.
Nodding to her sister, she replied, "I understand, I'll take him to get his things, and get ready to leave."
"Alright and when its time, I'll send Twilight here to come get you and meet me in the carriage." Celestia announced, looking at her beloved student.
"Yes Princess, of course." Twilight replied happily, and soon they both went back to talking.
Luna turned back and walked out of the throne room, Thunderlane following by her side.
Luna sighed, and her head drooped down, "I knew this time of the day was going to come, but it seemed I've been with you for only a hour..."
Thunderlane pushed closer to her side, comforting her, "I know, I wish we could always be together..."
Neither pony said another word as they walked down the halls and soon by Luna's room, Luna walked in, and sat down on her bed. "You better give me the chest piece now.." Thunderlane looked down at his necklace, and removed it, handing it to Luna. Luna looked down at the necklace in her hooves, and tiny tears filled her eyes. Thunderlane walked up to her, and kneeled down to look at her sobbing face.
"Luna my dear, don't cry, everything is going to be fine I promise..." He lifted his hoof and raised her head to look at his, and gave her a kiss. Luna smiled and kiss him back, hugging him tight to her.
"I know.. I just don't want to let you go..." Thunderlane kissed Luna cheek and her lips, comforting her. Luna kissed him back, and pulled him close to her, there chests pressing together, each could feel each others rapid breathing. Luna slowly laid down on her bed, and Thunderlane was on top of her. He wrapped his hooves around her back, and pulled her close to him, making their bellies press against each other. Luna and Thunderlane had done this a lot now, and Luna enjoyed every minute of it. Thunderlane slid his hooves down to her flank, and he pulled her under belly closer to his, the entire under body pressed close together now. Thunderlane stopped kissing Luna and looked into her eyes. He smiled at the blue orbs starring passionately into his own. She rubbed his back, massaging him, helping his muscles to relax. Thunderlane sighed lovingly, and pulled her hips deeper into his. Luna closed her eyes.
"This is it huh..."
"If this is what you want..." Thunderlane thought to her rubbing her flank.
"Its what I want..." Luna replied to him, and kissed his lips. Thunderlane smiled during the kiss and pulled her close, ready for her.
"Princess Luna, Celestia wants you to-" The voice of Twilight Sparkle stopped dead cold, like a broken record. Luna and Thunderlane's heads shot up and turned to see a very shocked and confused Twilight standing in the door way of Luna's room. "P-princess..Luna..what in E-equestria's n-name are y-you doing?" Twilight stuttered, her eyes wide, starring at the two ponies on top of each other. Thunderlane quickly removed himself from Luna, and Luna got up and tried to speak to Twilight.
"Twilight Sparkle, I can explain everything..." Luna sat down in front of the shocked mare, and took a deep breathe. "I met him on the day I came to Pony Ville to check on things, after the accident, he came to comfort me, and he was so nice. That night, we met up...and, well, kissed, we had fallen in love. So when this drawing came, I made Thunderlane win so I could spend the day with him. Twilight, you must understand, I'm in love, please don't tell Celestia, she'll never let me do this..." Twilight starred at the face of Luna, she could see the truth and fear in her eyes. Twilight hugged the blue princess.
"I won't Princess Luna, I can tell you love him very much, and if he's so important to you, that you would do anything to keep him, I won't tell Celestia, I promise."
Luna smiled, and hugged the purple mare back, small tears filled her eyes. This unicorn was different from others, she had something special, you could trust her no matter what. "Thank you Twilight Sparkle, you have never failed to amaze me."
Twilight grinned, and turned to go out the door, "Well then come on you two, lets get Thunderlane here home."
Sighing with relief, Luna and Thunderlane walked out of the room, and proceeded to follow the unicorn down the hall and into the court yard.

The sun was setting as the carriage flew over the horizon in the direction for Pony Ville. Luna and Thunderlane sat close together, and Twilight watched them smiling, while Celestia was busy talking to Twilight, who wasn't paying attention to her, she just nodded and agreed with her now and then. Luna was blushing as he looked over at Twilight and back to Thunderlane. All was quiet, at least it sounded like it.
"So, how many times did you two kiss today?" Twilight thought to Luna shyly, trying to break an awkward moment, but only managed to make it worse.
Luna looked over at Thunderlane, unsure of what to say, "Uh, about maybe...four or five..."
"Hmm that's nice...." Twilight shuffled her hooves, unsure of what else to say. Twilight sighed and looked at Luna with concern, "You know it's against the royal code, for a Princess and a common pony to fall in love and marry right?"
Luna looked up at her, sorrow in her eyes, "I know, that's exactly what I'm worried about... I love Thunderlane, and I never want to marry some spoiled, dumb rich pony... I want to marry a sweet stallion, who cares about someone so much, that he'd break the law for them." She thought, looking over at Thunderlane.
Twilight thought to herself for a minute then realized something, "But since you have royal duties, and these rules, how can you ever keep up this relationship, and more importantly, meet up again?"
Luna was drawn back, and knew it was the truth, she turned to look at Thunderlane who had a disappointed, a saddened face. Twilight was right, they could never be together...unless they had some sort of plans. "Twilight Sparkle, your magic is different from any other pony, its powerful, if you could be ever so kind, to help me and Thunderlane ge together."
Twilight tilted her head, "Me Princess? But what could I do to help you two?"
"Your teleporting spell, you can help Thunderlane to get to the castle with that spell, if you ever have the time to bother with that..."
Twilight was unsure, it was sneaky, and if the Princess caught her, she could get in trouble, and she never wanted to loose her mentor's trust, but she also didn't want to let Luna down. "Princess Luna, I swear from this moment on, I'll do what ever it takes, to get you to secretly together, no matter what happens..."
Luna smiled at the unsettled purple mare, she could tell Twilight was still unsure about the whole situation, but that she would help her. "Thank you dear Twilight Sparkle, I'll never forget your promise, you really are a amazing pony."
Twilight blushed at the princess's compliment, and they all looked at the sun set as they flew down to Pony Ville.

Luna sat down in her bed, her diary levitated in front of her, as she quietly scribbled down words of what happened in the recent days she had experienced.
Dear Diary,
These past few days, I haven't been writing, because I've been with the most amazing stallion in all of Canterlot. His name is Thunderlane, and I have a secret affair with him. Since I'm a princess, my duties go to my castle and subjects. But I can't look away or stop thinking about his face. That dark blue face, and those golden eyes, starring into me, melting my heart... soon I thought we could never see each other again, but a friend of mine, Twilight Sparkle, is going to help us, she is going to help him get to me tomorrow night, so we can be together. I'm pretty lucky to have him, I just wish rules didn't say we couldn't be together...but I have faith, our relationship will be ok...I hope
Love, Luna
Luna stuck the quill into the next page for tomorrow, and closed the book. She placed it under her pillow, and cuddled it. Sighing with love, thinking of Thunderlane. Luna didn't know what would happen for the next days, but she wanted to make the best of it, with her love. She never wanted it to end, she wanted it to last. Closing her eyes, she drifted off into a deep sleep, and somewhere off in Pony Ville, Thunderlane did the same, thinking of her.
