Chapter 7 – Say hello
Night Light slowly starts to open his eyes on the same couch his wife recuperated on only a few hours ago. He brings his blue hooves to his eyes as he rubs them trying to recall why he fainted.
"Honey..."
He stops his hooves motions as he listens to Velvet s voice. With a slow drop of his hooves his eyes meet with the white mare in front of him who gives a sweet smile, "Feeling better?"
Nightlight slowly nods his head as he tries to bring the ability to speak in a low overly calm voice, "Velvet... there's a baby in my house."
Velvet's sweet smile grows as she nods her head with a happy, "Mhmm"
Night Light's voice holds on its overly calmed tone as he plays along with his wife's little game, "Honey...why is there a baby in the house?"
Velvet put a hoof to Nightlights face and slowly turns his gaze from her to the light purple filly trying to stretch out of her high chair for a better look to the recently awoke stallion.
As Night Lights face becomes in clear view of the little filly Violet stops her stretching forward and instead gives a low wheezing wiggle of her legs. The filly's bright happy face causes Nightlight's faked hard expression to crack as he smiles back with a laugh.
But his action is quickly changed as he looks back to the mare that still lovingly stares at the filly, "Velvet, who is that?"
Velvet turns her head back as she gives a sigh, "Nightlight, meet your granddaughter."
The stallions body sways as the words hit him again and he stutters to talk, "T-Twilight Twilight?"
Velvet nods her head slowly as the stallion turns back to the little filly and bites down on his hoof, "Shes beautiful..." His voice is shaky and as he stands his tone changes, "I'll kill that stallion!"
Velvet gives a little giggle as she rest her hoof on Nightlight, "Her name is Violet."
Night Light's eyes start to shift a little as he looks over the happy filly, "That's a wonderful name..." But again his voice changes as he shakes his head, "...And i'll kill Twilight for not telling us!" He flops back onto the couch as he brings his hooves up to his face, "UHHH!" He tries to hold back his tears as his conflicting emotions fling thought his body.
Velvet embraces him in a hug as she lets out a little sob of her own, "I know...our little girl."
"Even Shining is not expecting a foal?!" Night Lights manly voice continues to crack up as he talks, "...and he’s married!"
Velvet lets out a sobbing giggle as she talks, "I told Shining and Cadence to stop by when they get in town."
Night Light pushes off of the white mare as he looks back to the little filly, "Where is Twilight? I want to talk with them."
Velvet holds her hoof to the stallion as she talks, "I'll explain in a minute, they need a few days to just relax right now."
The blue stallion shakes his head as he talks, "Oh no, I ne..-"
Velvet puts her hoof to his mouth as her voice picks up a little, "two days...and then we will have a nice little chat with them."
Night Light follows his wife with a laugh as he brushes his hooves through his mane anxiously.
"Its no different than with us." Velvet's voice changes back to a normal sweetness as she sighs.
"Pff, no its not? I married you before I knew you were pregnant." Night Light brings his head up as he finishes talking.
Velvet nods as she answers back, "True, but that my father only allowed it because I was pregnant."
Night Light lets out another laughing blow as he talks, "Your father didn't give me a chance?! I loved you even before I know you were pregnant."
Velvet raises her eyebrows as her point sinks into Night Light. He holds his hoof out to her as he talks fast, "No no this is way different, that stallion is-is...hes not right for her."
Velvet giggles as she walks over to Violet, "Lets get you something to eat." The white mare wraps her hoof around the filly as Night Light continues to try and deny her comment.
"Velvet? Velvet, you agreed with me last time we talked about this?" Velvet continues to ignore him as she walks to the kitchen.
Night Light stands from the couch as he calls out, "I am still going to have my talk with them especially that stallion, you hear me? I'm making a mental note to self about it!"
Velvet gives a giggle as she walks out of the room.
The blue stallion stares wide eyed to the empty room as he starts to move quick, "...Let me warm the milk you always made it to hot."
His hooves clap against the floor as he tries to catch up with the mare around the corner.
