//------------------------------// // Moms know best // Story: Anidate me please // by CaioCoia //------------------------------// The sky was black tranquility married to a poetry of stars. It was the softness that called the body and brain to rest and let the heart go to its steady rhythm. Night came as a reward of sorts, a restfulness above to calm the soul. The gentle breeze blew across the open field of golden grass, the wheat stood short to the sight of it’s viewer. No words were spoken within this golden sea, the waves of King Midas curse flowed through and through. The song of  mother earth breathes into the ears of sin, her angel vocal cords springed water of unholy tears from his eyes. Standing above all with no ground to feel the comfort of motherly love. The man who viewed and heard the song of pure couldn’t enjoy the satisfying jouissance in his soul. He stood above the golden sea as gravity had no hold on him, letting him stand freely on air. The breeze brushed agents the wheat, pushing it back mildly for it to bounce right back. "Oh, Celly, are you reading the book I gave you yesterday?" A voice whose someone familiar and dear to me asked as I closed the book as I took off my reading glasses, and gave my dear spouse a smile as a signal of agreement. As she went to by my side and decided to sit on my lap as we looked at the window in front of our house. As I waited for 5 seconds before she would start the conversation... 5,4,3,2,1. "Sunset told you where she went? Twilight was looking for her as crazy." I smiled as a signal of everything was in acceptation, since I took my cellphone and showed the text message from Sunset Shimmer at noon. "She said she was going to hang out with her new friends, the family of that girl Sonata." I gave her the proof, one signal of how a good child should act in case before leaving the house, always communicating with us. "Nothing to worry about Velvy?" "Oh? Is that so...?" Knowing the tone of voice of her, she wasn't done about our conversation, and that was perfectly fine, since she was accommodating herself on my lap, and I looked patiently as she gave me a cup of tea. "Knowing her, she is spying Spike..." I nodded satisfied as I sip a good taste of tea, as we both were wearing our casual clothing in the afternoon. I wanted to get out of school so bad, I lost my son going on his first date, but I wouldn't lose the comeback of my house, not even if that could kill me... Who needs soap operas if the lives of our children are more entertaining than television. "Celly? Celly? Are you monologuing again? Really? Are you really that bored with the meeting of parents and teachers today?" Velvet caressed my face as I snapped from my thoughts and letting out my frustrations with a sigh. "Velvy, you know me, If it wasn't for the fact I'm the principal of the school, I could have broken some bones from some parents over there," I said as I cracked my knuckles as Velvet giggled from my anger. "Well, you always the patient one, different of you... I wouldn't have warned..." From her tone of voice, I knew she wasn't kidding, but I cannot help but confess that this was one part of me who loves her for the deepest of my heart. As I proceeded to give her a peek on her cheek and was ready to give a kiss enjoying the love we still have, the sound of a motor was enough to make both of us alert and look at the window... The limo of the famous artist was the signal Spike finally got back from his date. As I looked at the clock... 6 p.m... "He is on time, he always knows the time limit... And this girl seems to respect that... She got a point in my concept." Velvet smiled satisfied, as I gave a good smile of satisfaction as well... The rules of my house. You can go on date if you come back at 6 if you have 14... and 7 p.m if you have 16. If you are at the marked hour in my property, you are safe to stay how much time you want... with me and Velvet watching of course... but the later rule just me and her know. I could see the little girl getting out clumsy as Spike gave her his hand to help. I looked at Velvet who seemed to have her notepad in her hands, as me I took my glasses and I decided to make the signal. "And... Thank you for this wonderful night, Spike, I hope you have enjoyed it the same way as me." I decided to read her lips and synchronize with Velvet as she wrote down on the notepad. "You don't know how much that means to me." I decided to give a look at my son who seemed still fascinated and with a face like he had the best day of his life. "Actually Sonata, many things happened so much on this week, that I'm still thinking this is a dream," I replied to the quote of Spike as I noticed Velvet smiling as she was a fan girl of her own step son. "Oh, Spike. You are such a gentleman." Velvet said as I looked at her, as she gave a raspberry to me, making me gasp in shock. "Oh how dare you," I said, as she pointed at the couple while making me humph and decided to continue the interpretation of their lips. "Oh no... Spike turned his back in the window." "Alright, just tell me what this girl Sonata will say." Velvet seemed so assured of herself that I decided to continue reading. "As, a lovable experience we had. I hope everything happened in the way you wanted." I imitated the girl, as Velvet then decided to say. "Don't worry about it, I actually wanted to make sure you would enjoy the day the same way as me." I looked surprised at Velvet who seemed smiling smugly at me. "I worked 8 years with child psychology, and Spike was with me during most part of his life. I know how he thinks." I looked at the girl Sonata who seemed so happy. "I really loved this experience, and I'm sure when the cast of the show meet you at the pizza restaurant Saturday Night, they will like you from the way you are," I said surprised... "Wow, Spike is going to meet a group into a pizzeria?" Velvet thought a few minutes then she gasped. "Saturday Night? Wasn't our monthly channel meeting to discuss our future progress?" I looked at Velvet who pointed at the calendar on her cellphone showing the date so Spike would take most time inside of his room, the night he would expend with his projects on Metube. "How did you know this? I thought I was the only one." I felt surprised because I was his mother and he always told me in confidence. And even if he doesn't. Sunset Shimmer would say it to me... "Well, honey. I know Spike's reasons, and I'm one of the followers of his channel... I always watched his videos..." Velvet said as she was proud of herself and then she looked at me and just waved her hands. "To see if he is creating good content for the children... Yeah, that..." I raised my eyebrow and decided to keep looking at the conversation... Waiting for what my partner would say... it didn't take long until she sighed in defeat. "Alright, I watched because I enjoyed Power Ponies since it was my dream to become a superhero in my childhood... Sue me." Twilight Velvet looked away as she blushed angrily, making me chuckle from her reaction. "I don't think of you any lower my dear," I said as I looked at Sonata talking, and from this little conversation I lost some words of what she said, but I still could read her lips. "I know you are going to be fine. Again, don't worry about it, they will understand." "I hope so." Twilight Velvet said both on her context and on Spike's behave as well. Since she lost the concept of a few words. "Oh, so... er... Oh, my cellphone." I said as the sudden change of tones, Sonata was going to say something but she was nervous about it, but for her rescue suddenly something vibrated as she gasped in surprise. "Yes? Oh, okay. I will be their ma'am." As she turns her phone off, I could see her face with relief but with a few glimpses of sadness. Like the feeling of wanting to be there but having to go... "Interesting..." I said as I took my glass off until saw something which made me smile cheekily... "Oh, you silly but clever girl." "What happened?" Twilight Velvet said as Sonata Dusk ran inside the limo as she departed, leaving Spike in a state of shock. "She got so quick, she gave a peek on his cheek and left like a rocket as she blushed like a tomato," I said as my mate got straight up and looking at the window in disbelief. "Seriously? And I lost it? That's not fair." She looked annoyed at me. My response was actually to chuckle at her, as I gave her a kiss on her cheek. "Don't worry Velvy, it was just a kiss on the cheek, it doesn't count..." I lied for me it does count much, I have withness his first kiss on the cheek by a girl, something I have and Velvy not. "Celestia, you are doing the face again... You are a terrible liar." Velvet facepalmed as me I smiled at her. "Guilty, well. In the future when she finally kisses him again, you will be there... so better to be ready." I smiled at her, as she raised her eyebrows and grinned at me. "Oh, I will." She said after she winked at me. As I was going to say something, Spike finally opened the door and met me and Velvet looking at him as we drink tea. "Oh hey, mom, hey, mother." Spike looked sheepishly as he sweats... "Hello, sweetie." I and Velvet said at the same time as we looked at him as he is freaking out on the inside. "How was the date?" " Why are you talking in synchrony?" Spike looked around as we just smiled at him... As he looked nervous, he decided to let a sigh, and then smiled widely. "Wow, it was perfect... I never thought I would have enjoyed so much a date." As he walked to our side, he took a chair as he decided to enjoy explain all the details of his date... Well, I never thought I could see my baby boy be so happy as to find a girl... Well, maybe miracles indeed do exist. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As an hour passed like a flash. I and Velvet enjoyed seeing our son happily chatting about how his date went. From explaining the part of his possible "girlfriend" not just is a pop star, she was the CEO of the companies of pizzeria and Tacos restaurants. Which both surprised me and Velvet... The boy who he meets at the restaurant and how funny and a great family-friendly environment he was, indeed tempted me to go to take Sunset, Twilight, Spike, and Velvet to pass a lunch over there and meet the employees of that establishment. Since the quote there is a ma'am who would become great friends of me and Velvet. Which I could take an interest in to see how good would be that place. Spike even told us about the dream he helped the pop star to achieve because of him, and for that reason, she knew Spike from the first place. It was a great love story, which Velvet hugged and gave a few kisses, embarrassing him... But I couldn't help but do the same, making him blush even more and annoyed but enjoying the experience. We know he had a great day, and meeting someone who he was destined to meet to achieve his own dreams... It was sure, that Spike had the charisma who would make everyone around him enjoy him... It's just some people don't understand his charms... And thank goodness someone finally noticed his qualities as he deserved to show. He needed someone to help him to achieve his own dreams... I couldn't be more proud of my own baby. He went so far, and he now is becoming a little man, which would make me feel so happy. "So Celly, what do you think the name of their daughter would be?" Velvet asked me as she drank a cup of coffee, making me raise my eyebrow at her suspicious. "What gave you the reason of guess they will have a daughter? We already have a granddaughter... I want a boy." I said as she smiled at me knowing she would have guessed. "Well, maybe Sunset and Twilight would have, but I'm sure Spike will have a daughter..." She smiled at me as challenging me to say the opposite. Oh so she wanted to make a bet? Is she testing me? "Nonsense. It will be a boy. But let's continue this discussion at the day they will marry..." I decided to conclude this silly discussion because I know I'm right. Even more about my own genes. "On 3rd July," We both said at the same time. Making both of us giggle as we agreed the day of marriage would be this one. Making a good signal on how amazing the future of my boy will be. "Err... Are you sure that's a good idea to discuss Spike's marriage behind his back even if he isn't officially become her boyfriend?" A voice made both me and Velvet look behind, as we saw Sunset walking inside the kitchen exhausted and really full like she had eaten for hours. "Oh... can you tell me where you went little girl?" Velvet said coldly as Sunset took her cellphone off to show the messages. "Sorry mother, but I was hanging out with Sonata's sisters while Spike was on his date. And we kinda ate a lot. I cannot eat more by the day, because I'm full. And I will be sick if I eat more." Velvet took a look at the messages looking by me as I gave her a nod to which she was free from any accusation. "So, how was to hang out with her sisters?" I asked as Velvet took another cup of coffee. "They are great girls, indeed wanting to protect their sister in any coast. Even paying a secret FBI van just to spy on her sister on a date... Which they are a great person to share a place with me to spy Spike." Sunset shrugged me and Velvet nodded in acceptance. "Well, as you enjoyed your day. There is one thing I must tell you. Twilight was freaking out looking for you. Today was the slumber Party of Pinkie Pie and they were looking for you." The moment Velvet said those words. I could see my own daughter's eyes shrink as she decided to run upstairs. "OH MY GOSH, I FORGOT, I FORGOT. I FOOOORRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTT.... MOM, PLEASE CALL THEM, TELL THEM I'M COMING." We heard Sunset through the next floor, as Velvet shakes her head in disapproval. "Oh, teenagers. Why tell always make such drama? Well, I guess I gotta take her to Pinkie's house. I will change myself." Velvet gave me a kiss on the lips, while I smiled at her. "Well, go safe," I said as she nodded to me before leaving to change herself. As the night looked deeply dark and without a moon to guide the place. I knew the light of the stars with the light over the streets would create such unique view. Something we usually don't see... Sometimes taking a look over the window can make you relax as you enjoy a great cup of tea or coffee... The satisfaction of the little things... The door knocked as minutes after Velvet and Sunset went upstairs. As a surprise of who could be over the night. I couldn't help but be curious to see who could be. As I walked beside the door. I couldn't help but hear familiar sounds which made my night even better... Who knew from a terrible morning I had, a great night was indeed going to happen to me and my family. I opened the door as I smiled wide at my family. "Lulu, Cadance, Shining, Blueblood, welcome..." Yep, this day couldn't be better than already is, but tomorrow will be a great time to pass with the family... I have to say, I have a loveable wife, 3 great kids, and parents to make my weekend better, a good book, and a nice cup of tea and coffee... Well, my life is perfect... I smiled as I allowed them to get inside my house and closed the door... Enjoying the time with my family.
