A Bet Worth Cuddles

Chapter 4

The sun rose on the horizon, making the rays of sunlight enter the room of the Golden Oak’s Tree Library, Twilight slept peacefully in bed with the dark blue blanket of stars and moons covering her up to the neck. She opened her eyes, getting up and making the bed. Down the stairs, she saw Spike placing two plates of pancakes on the table; one with whipped cream and blackberries, the other with blackberries and raspberries. Spike turned around and saw Twilight, a smile formed on his face.

“Good morning, Twilight!” Spike greeted.

“Good morning, Spike,” Twilight greeted back, sitting down to start eating her pancake. Spike did the same.

“So, Twilight? What do you plan to do this morning?” Spike asked after swallowing the pancake.

Twilight looked at Spike and replied after swallowing the piece of pancake, “I am thinking of going to the library. How about you, Spike?”

“I think I’m going to see the Cutie Mark Crusaders. You know, trying to help them get their Cuties Marks,” Spike replied. Twilight agreed in response, returning to her meal.

After a few minutes, Twilight and Spike finished eating and went to do their activities: Spike went to wash the dishes and Twilight took her saddle bag, put it on her back and left the oak house to read a book in a library. She watched the ponies walk the streets of Ponyville and saw the adult ponies going to stores or just walking alone, or with their special somepony, now the foals were going to school. Twilight looked ahead and saw the library just ahead. She opened the door and went inside, she saw that there were already some ponies inside, some were already reading and others were choosing which book to read.

Twilight approached a bookcase and looked at the book titles, trying to decide which book she should choose to read. She was on the bookcase that had the mystery book genres. Putting the hoof on her chin, she began to examine the books it had of this genre, trying to choose which book to pick up to read. Until after a few minutes, she made up her mind and took a book from the bookshelf. She went to the table and put her bag beside the table and sat down to start reading it.

After a few hours, Twilight finally finished reading the book, got up, put the bag in her cell and went to the mare who was on the table with a stamp. She put the book on the table and said, “I’m going to take this book.”

The mare took the stamp, put ink on it, opened the book and stamped it. “Very well! Don’t forget to return it next week.”

Twilight agreed, closing the book and placing it in her backpack. She approached the door and opened it, leaving the library. She soon heard her stomach growl. A small laugh came out of her. She didn’t even realize that she had spent a lot of time reading and that it was already lunchtime. She started walking, but she wasn’t going to have lunch at her house, she was going to her favorite restaurant in Ponyville: Daisies Lunch.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, she saw some ponies sitting on top of a pile of hay, some were choosing what to eat, while others were already eating. She saw a free table and approached. She placed her backpack very close to the hay and sat on the hay. Wrapping the menu with pink magic, she opened it and started to see what it had, but she stopped what she was doing when she heard the sound of the flapping of wings. The alicorn looked where she heard the sound and saw Rainbow land on the floor and enter the restaurant. Rainbow was looking for a empty table, until she saw Twilight and approached her with a smile.

“Hey, Twily! I didn’t expect to see you here!” said Rainbow, sitting on the hay.

“Me neither, Rainbow. Do you also come to this restaurant to eat?” asked Twilight.

“Sometimes yes. But usually, I eat at home,” Rainbow replied, picking up the menu.

“Have you chosen, madams?”

Twilight looked at the waiter and said, “I would like a daisy sandwich.”

Rainbow took her eyes off the menu after a few seconds and looked at the waiter. “I would like a sandwich with tomato and lettuce.” The waiter left the table and entered the restaurant. Twilight and Rainbow watched the pony waiter enter before looking at each other.

“So Rainbow, what did you do this morning?” asked Twilight.

“I was training my maneuvers and then rested for a while on a cloud,” Rainbow replied. “You had to see it. It was every awesome somersault!”

“Yeah ... it must have been,” Twilight agreed.

“How about you? What did you do this morning?” asked Rainbow.

“I went to the library,” Twilight replied. Rainbow’s smile fell on that.

“Here are your orders, madams,” said the waiter, placing the two plates of sandwiches on the mushroom table.

“Thank you, sir,” said Twilight, wrapping the sandwich with her pink magic and starting to eat.

Rainbow picked up the sandwich with the hooves and started eating. She can’t help but love the sandwich. The last time she ate this sandwich was when she, Twilight and the other girls had a picnic, but that was months ago.

After finishing her meal, Twilight paid for the sandwiches and went with Rainbow to her house to continue being her body pillow, since they had finished their lunch at two o’clock in the afternoon. They unfolded their wings and flew across the sky together, both side by side.

After a few minutes of flight, they finally arrived at the cloud house and went inside, Rainbow closed the door and led the way to her room. Upon arriving at the room, they both approached the bed and lay down, first it was Twilight and then it was Rainbow, who soon wrapped the purple alicorn in a hug as soon as she lay down. They both let out a light breath at the same time, relaxing on the bed. Rainbow began to caress the Twilight mane with a hoof, still keeping her eyes closed. Twilight just loved being caressed, it felt so soft, and it made her cheeks turn a little pink.

“Twily, in case we ever fall asleep and we only woke up at night during this week, would you like to spend the night here with me?” Rainbow invited, opening her eyes and looking at Twilight with a smile.

Twilight thought for a few seconds before replying, “Well, I suppose so. I had already warned Spike about our bet, so he won’t be worried when I don’t return sometime this week.”

“Great! So that means we can read Daring Do books together in bed,” said Rainbow, closing her eyes and lovingly caressing Twilight’s chest with her head. Twilight blushed, closing her eyes with the sudden affection. What a touch!

Upon stopping, Rainbow kissed Twilight on the lips, resulting in Twilight’s ears perking up and her pupils diminishing with the sudden kiss, but she soon relaxed and returned the kiss. Twilight soon felt Rainbow’s tongue inside her mouth and also felt her tongue touching Rainbow’s, both started fighting for control, but unfortunately for Twilight, Rainbow’s tongue won. They both stopped the kiss after a few minutes and Rainbow said, “I hate lose, Twily.”

Twilight rolled her eyes with a smile at the answer. Rainbow was definitely a very competitive pony, even during a kiss. But even so, she didn’t care about that competitive way.

After a few minutes, they both closed their eyes and took a deep breath. They could hear each other’s heartbeat. Rainbow began to lovingly stroke Twilight’s fur with a hoof. Twilight can’t help but smile with the affection.

“Your fur is so soft...” said Rainbow.

“T-thank you, Rainbow,” Twilight thanked timidly with pink cheeks because of the compliment received.

After a few minutes, Rainbow stopped with affection and went back to embracing Twilight. Twilight felt so comfortable in the embrace that she let out a slight breath. Rainbow, on the other hand, just smiled because she was having one of the best weeks.

After a few hours, Rainbow stopped hugging Twilight and took the blanket from the bed and covered them up to the neck because they were both shaking. Rainbow returned to embrace Twilight and they snuggled into the blanket, both of them let out a slight breath, relaxing in the warmth of the blanket. The hug was already very cozy, but being covered in a blanket while hugging who you like? That was certainly twice as cozy!

“This blanket is sure to makes your hug even more comfortable,” said Twilight in a relaxed tone.

“Yes, and on top of that, it makes my embrace twenty percent more comfortable,” Rainbow added proudly in the sentence. Twilight rolled her eyes at the phrase, but she wasn’t angry about it. She closed her eyes again and relaxed in the embrace, Rainbow did the same.

After a few hours, they felt their eyelids get heanvy and yawned, with both falling asleep at the same time, by account of the blanket and hug were very cozy.
