//------------------------------// // 35. Kids // Story: Kill Me Now // by Golden Script //------------------------------// That night Fed told me the story of Romeo and Juliet. He told me about how they fell in love, how others didn’t approve, and how they ran away together. It was a great story, and I think he was talking more about him and Rarity, or that he wanted me to make that connection. Maybe he wanted me to understand that he really loved her, and that he would do anything to be with her, or maybe he was just telling me a story. I couldn’t tell. Oh well, I shouldn’t worry myself with that stuff. “Good night, sweets.” “Good night, Fed.” He closed the door, I fell asleep minutes later. ----- He came to my room after he was done telling sweetie bell a story, just like he said. He shut the door behind him, quietly as not to alert her. And walked over to me, kissed me passionately, then laid down next to me in my princess size bed. “What do you want to talk about next?” he was respectful of a ladies request, that’s good. “Maybe, more about ourselves. What do you like to do on a normal day?” “Well, as I hope I’ve already displayed, I love children, I would design clothing, maybe go out to eat with friends, maybe even sleep a little bit. What about you?” “Pretty much the same thing, but children can be a little much sometimes. Sweetie bell has ruined more than one of my clothing lines with her… exploits.” “That is understandable, I never had a sibling to look after, it’s always been ‘look after yourself’ and never any different.” “Well, now you look after my sister. You know, you’re the closest thing to a father she’s ever had.” “Are your parents… gone?” concern writen all over his face “No, but their never around, I take care of her most of the time, they stop by every now and again. They aren’t bad parents, they raised me to be everything they weren’t, but they were… slightly barbaric. They had no sense of fashion or elegance. How I was the result of them, I could never really tell.” “Well, I am honored to be here, to be with you.” he kissed my cheek. “What about your past, your parents?” “Oh, um, my parents were really strict and always pushed me to be better, I really appreciate where they got me by doing that, but I didn’t like how they did it. they would punish me severely when I did something wrong, whether that punishment be a spanking when I was small, no dinner when I got older, or a beating , it was never pleasant. Other than that my childhood was as good as any others.” “Oh, I'm so sorry. That must be terrible.” “Well, I'm here now, so I'm happy it happened. Think of it like this, if they hadn’t beaten me, I might not be with you.” he held my hoof “plus, they can't hurt me anymore.” “I guess that’s one way of looking at it.” we kissed again. “yeah.” He smiled at me; it was a warm smile, not a forced one or a sad one, just a smile. ----- The next morning I got up and Fed wasn’t in my room, I wandered out and checked Rarity’s room, there they were, sleeping, in each other’s hooves. ‘wait, they’re in that kind of relationship?’ I gasped and Rarity stirred. “Sweetie bell, what do you need?” she propped herself up and looked at me, she noticed the shocked look on my face and asked “what is it?” “You… he… but… I thought… you slept with him?!” I screamed, making Fed stur in his sleep. “Yes, honestly, sweetie, I would have thought that if you knew what that was you would be more shocked when he slept with you.” “But I knew he wouldn’t try any ‘funny stuff’ cus he said so.” “Still, we’re in a relationship, along with the fact that nothing happened last night. You have no need to worry about any nieces or nephews.” “Well that’s good, I guess.” I started to back out of the room “I’ll be downstairs.” “Ok, Sweetie.” She slumped back down to look at Fed. ----- He was just waking, even after my conversation with Sweetie. He woke up and found himself staring into my eyes. “You know you have the most beautiful eyes in all of Equestria?” “Stop the flattery. What is it?” “Oh, nothing, you’ve just got a little something right there.” He licked the end of my nose. “He-he, what was that for?” “Nothing, just the fact that I slept with the most beautiful mare under Celestias’ sun.” "And Lunas' moon?" I asked. "Was there ever any doubt?" we shared another smooch and gazed into each others eyes. “Well, we better get downstairs, Sweeties waiting for us.” I started getting up. “What are we doing today?” “Nothing, just breakfast, she can't make it on her own.” We went downstairs and found Sweetie trying to get the frying pan out of the cabinet. She saw us and dropped it, I caught it with my magic, but she freaked out all the same. “Sis, I didn’t know you would be down so early, I thought you were going to be a while. I was going to make breakfast for us all.” She was obviously flustered. “It’s quite alright, but don’t try again until I teach you how, ok?” “Ok, can you teach me now?” I looked to Fed; he gave me an indifferent look “I don’t see why not.” “Yay, I'm gonna learn how to cook!” she started jumping around, then onto Feds back, she loved jumping there for some reason. “Doesn’t that hurt?” I asked Fed. “Not really, it’s like a ball bouncing on my back, I can feel her hooves, but I don’t feel pain, don’t worry.” He smiled but I still wasn’t sure. “So are we going to get cooking, or are we going to jump on Feds back all day.” Sweetie bell stopped jumping on feds back and onto the ground. “Let’s get cooking!” she ran into the kitchen. “Kids.” Fed said in an amused tone. “kids.” I agreed, then we followed her into the kitchen to start making breakfast.
