“Aaaand... here we are, Canterlot’s Castle Rooftop…” she blushed a little and continued “… the place where I get most of my inspiration.” She smiled
“I-it’s..” Fluttershy gulped “… high…” she squeaked a little.
Luna found it the most adorable thing she ever saw. “Hey.” She stepped to Fluttershy’s side and sat alongside her. “Don’t worry, you’re with me, I won't let anything happen to you.” She smiled to Fluttershy.
“Thank you, Luna,” she smiled back, for some reason she felt so warm with Luna, she couldn’t explain it, it was odd of course, but it wasn’t bad at the same time, actually, she wanted to be with Luna forever. Fluttershy gulped, it’s her friend, the Co-Ruler of Equestria, Princess Luna! Nonononono, this is not right, it just can’t be right.
Fluttershy began to sweat, she got too nervous only thinking about it, she realized the more she wanted to deny it, to forget this feeling, the stronger it gets, she just realized she fell in love with a Princess, the highest authority in all Equestria, she began to sweat more and more, then she just realized Luna was looking to her.
“Are you Okay, Fluttershy?” Luna asked with concern on her voice. “You seem a little… tense” she grinned.
“Oh? Me? No no… I’m fine, really I mean it!” she almost burst the words out her mouth. ”Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, what’s wrong with me?”
Luna laughed softly “here, look at this.” Her horn began to light up, she closed her eyes and began to focus on the night sky.
Fluttershy just observed it, she realized some stars were beginning to get brighter than others, Fluttershy was stoned, it was so surreal, it was beautiful, it was different, but she loved every single detail of it, she was staring at her own constellation, she felt some tears sliding through her face, she never realized she would get those gifts some day, she felt special some way,
“You… like it?” Luna blushed “I… I hope you like it, I made for you.” She smiled weakly
Fluttershy remained quiet, she didn’t have words to describe how much she liked it, it was too perfect to be real “I-I… I love it.” She cried softly and hugged Luna as hard as she could, she just wanted to say it and wait for an answer, but her shyness wouldn’t let her.
“Good thing I’m in my inspiration ‘room’ “ Luna giggled and looked down to Fluttershy “but I guess I didn’t need it, I don’t know…” she smiled sheepishly.
“W-what do you mean?” Fluttershy asked after releasing Luna from the hug
“I got my inspiration to do it, so… I did it.” She replied smiling and trying to hide her face from Fluttershy
“I-Inspiration?” she asked confused.
“You, silly.” Luna laughed
Luna’s laugh was one of the most pleasant things Fluttershy ever heard, she just wanted this moment to last forever, she wanted badly to say to Luna what she felt for her, she wanted to try…
“Luna…” Fluttershy began speaking and gulped a little
“Yes, Fluttershy?” Luna replied smiling to her friend.
”Her smile is so beautiful… no no no, focus Fluttershy, you can do it… you can do it…” Fluttershy looked to Luna again, she was in front of her, with that beautiful smile, so warm, and so relaxing at the same time… ”Please mind, stop, please…” she gathered her courage and began to talk again.
“Luna, I wanted to say that…” she stopped and gulped “I-I… think…” she stopped, she couldn’t do it, “I-I think you are the best friend I could have!” she said
“Awww, you are the best friend I could have too, Fluttershy.” Luna said and hugged Fluttershy “You are my best friend, sometimes you are awful cute, you know?” she said smiling
Fluttershy blushed intensely “Y-you too, Luna, I-I’m just happy that… you invited me to come to the castle.”
“It’s not a problem, you can come here whenever you want to.” She smiled
*RRRRRRRRRIIIINGGGGGGGGG*
“Oh! I guess our dinner is calling us.” Luna laughed “Come on, let’s eat something. I’m starving, and I bet you are too, you slept all day.” She giggled
Fluttershy blushed a little. “I guess I lost track of time…” she said looking down.
“It is nothing, as I said, you look awful cute sleeping.” Luna said to Fluttershy
Fluttershy smiled weakly. “you are.”
“Nope! You are!” Luna said joking
“You.” Fluttershy replied
“aw, come on, we both know you are, Fluttershy.”
“I still think you are.” She giggled
“Stop it, you’re making me embarrassed…” Luna said blushing
“…cutie Woona…”
Fluttershy could see Luna’s red cheeks brightening intensely
“um… it’s okay, isn’t?” Fluttershy asked
“……….yeah…” Luna was still blushing.
“I think I found your weakness.” Fluttershy giggled.
“Well… if you found my weakness, you should at least know what makes me feel strong.” Luna smiled
“What is it?” Fluttershy asked
“Look to the sky.” She smiled
“The Moon?” The yellow Pegasus asked confused
“Almost there. Guess again.” The Blue Alicorn played with her mind.
“The stars?” she asked again.
“Almost there, now think what are on the stars.”
“um… oh.” She blushed.
She was staring at her own constellation again.
“um… I make you feel strong?” she asked sheepishly
“Yes, but not only that.” Luna sat next to Fluttershy and gave a warm hug. “You make me feel happy.” She said looking to the yellow Pegasus. “You… you make me feel happy…” she smiled weakly and tears began to trail off her eyes.
“Luna… I…” Fluttershy gulped and courage began to take control of her. “I want to tell you something.” She said confident and smiling.
“What do you want to tell me, Fluttershy?” Luna asked while cleaning her eyes.
“I always want you to know that I…” she breathed, she was really going to tell Luna about her feelings. It is now or never.” Fluttershy opened her mouth to speak.
“Luna, Fluttershy? Are you there?” Celestia said as she entered the room, and saw the two mares hugging each other. “Oh, I’m sorry to interrupt.” She smiled. “Well… dinner is already served, and you two didn’t come and I got worried.” She explained. “But… I see you two are doing fine together.” She paused a little and smiled. “I’ll see you two at the table.” She was about to close the door. “and Luna?”
“Yes, sister?” she asked.
Celestia only blinked and smiled as she descended the stairs.
“Huh?” they were left confused
“Um… shall we go? Um… if you want too…” Fluttershy was feeling bad, she almost said it, she was this close, but she couldn’t, she sighed, it’s going to take a while to do this.
“Yes, I’m right behind you.” Luna looked to the field and put a hoof in her chin. “I know something is going on with her, I know that look…” she trailed off of thoughts about Fluttershy. ”Fluttershy wanted to tell me something…” she thought.
“Princess Luna? Miss Fluttershy and your Elder Sister are already at the table. Do you need an escort?” the guard asked
Luna sighed. “I’m on my way.” She made her way through the stairs.

“What kept you two?” Celestia asked with a little smile on her face.
“We were just seeing the night sky. Nothing more.” Luna replied.
“Really? But when I came up there, you two were hugging each other .” Celestia continued.
Fluttershy’s eyes widened. ”Oh no…” Fluttershy thought, she was scared, but it was okay. Wasn’t it?
“And, I think it was the cutest thing, ever.” She finished.
“Sis… stop, it was just a hug, we are friends. Friends do that right?” she took a bite of salad and swallowed. “It’s normal, we are just friends. And-“
“I’m kidding, I know you are friends, and I’m okay with that, Twilight and her friends are united, and, united friends do that. Plus. You and Fluttershy are united. Right?” she asked smiling warmly.
Luna and Fluttershy blushed softly. “Well…” Luna began. “I think we are.” She said as she smiled. “Aren’t we, Fluttershy?” she said as she looked to Fluttershy.
“Yes, we are.” She said happily, but in the bottom of her heart she wanted more, even though it was a little impossible, but she wanted it anyway, she couldn’t do anything against it, she couldn’t think other thoughts, distract herself, the only thing she found on her mind was Luna, only Luna, and this thought didn’t want to go away, because she started thinking with her heart instead.
“Mmm. That was delicious.” Luna said. “I haven't had a salad in a long time.” She finished.
“All thanks to the chefs. They always make good food.” Celestia said and smiled.
Behind them a couple of cooks smiled then walked through the kitchen.
“I hope you two have a good night.” Celestia said and frowned. “I have some work to do.”
“Do you need some help? I can help you, sis.” Luna said. “Besides, I’m a co-ruler of Equestria, we are no different.” She said.
“I know, but you have a company at the moment, you two have a good night, I can take care of things.” Celestia smiled warmly to her sister and Fluttershy.
“Ok, sister…” she began as she hugged Celestia. “Until tomorrow.”
“Thanks, and don’t stay up too late you two.” Celestia said and walked to her work room, it was filled with papers and quills. She grabbed a quill and looked to a photograph of her and her sister. “I’m so glad things can be normal again…” a tear dropped from her eye.
Luna and Fluttershy walked to Luna’s room, it was darker than usual, that scared Fluttershy a little, but somehow, she didn’t care.
“So… Luna…” Fluttershy said smiling.
“Yes?” Luna said smiling warmly to Fluttershy and opened a door beneath them.
The two mares entered the room. It was cold, the winter was already there, and they didn’t like it very much though, but she do enjoyed the peace winter gave her, and it was more peaceful with Fluttershy there.
“Um… t-thank you for letting me go to Canterlot.” She said smiling. ”I can’t do this yet…”
“Oh, it’s nothing, and I have something to ask you too.” Luna said smiling.
“What is it?” she asked confused.
“Are you ready?” Luna asked giggling.
“Ready?” she asked confused again.
“for my…” Luna began
”Oh, here it comes…” Fluttershy thought and smiled.
“MY FIRST SLUMBER PARTY!” Luna said happily and hugged Fluttershy.
Fluttershy sighed and smiled.
