9 months later, things started to become tricky. Sunset and I were at school, in Physics class. Although I was shit at Physics, I did it because I enjoyed it. I looked at Sunset, who was very pale. She looked as if she was gonna pass out. She screamed, as the pain coursed through her body. I knew she was ready.
I ran into the toilets, laying Sunset on the floor. “Breathe, Sunset,” I said. “It’s gonna be okay.”
Tears were streaming down her face, as she kept screaming. “Push,” I said. “That’s it.”
“Flash,” she wept. “Flash, I think-” she screamed again.
“Hangfire,” I said. “I’m getting help.”
I ran out of the toilets, to Nurse Redheart. I told her what had happened. I led her to the toilets, where Sunset was still trying to stay calm.
Nurse Redheart told me to go into the cubicle while she sorted Sunset out. I heard screams of agony from the cubicle I was in. And then, silence. A cry of a baby sounded. I unlocked the cubicle. Sunset had passed out, and Nurse Redheart was holding our child. “It’s a girl,” said Redheart.
“What about Alice?” I suggested. “Sunset? Can you hear me?”
No answer.
“Well, I think it’s wonderful,” said Nurse Redheart.
I kissed Sunset. I was holding our daughter. Sunset blinked. “Is that our daughter, Flash?” she asked.
“Yes,” I replied. “Her name is Alice. Do you wanna hold her?”
“Yeah,” she said, sitting up. I passed Alice to her. Sunset rocked her gently in her arms.
“She looks like you,” I said. “Except she has my eyes.”
Sunset laughed. “Flash, I love you,” she said softly.
We kissed, just as Rainbow Dash came in.
“My eyes!” cried Rainbow Dash, closing their eyes. “My eyes!”
We laughed. “Oh, Dash,” I said. “It’s safe.”
Rainbow Dash opened their eyes.
Alice gurgled happily in Sunset’s arms.
“Oh, by the way,” said Rainbow Dash. “Fluttershy and I are gay.”
“Congratulations!” cried Sunset. “I’m so happy for you!”
I smiled. Sunset smiled back.
“Sunset?” I asked, sitting next to her, pulling a ring out. The ring was an emerald colour. “Will you marry me?”
“Yes!” cried Sunset. “I will.”
We kissed again, passionately.
