Chapter 3 – How about now?

You don't bring your head up from your coat as you give another sigh thinking over your stupidity only a little while ago, don't wait brain says....the cheese is settled brain says.... You stare at the still slightly matted cheesy fur of your chest as you walk behind Twilight, next time i'm not even going to bother with a bath...

"Ugh, are you sure?"

Twilight gives a giggle to your third time asking as her pace down the road does not slow, "Yes, your coat does not smell like cheese ok?"

You kick your leg up to adjust the sliding satchel as you try to pick your pace up to bring you next to Twilight.

Your two story destination is only a few steps from you now and you can't help but give a sigh, knowing that your vacation was cut to short.

"Ok so one more time what are my parents names?" Twilight turns her head to you as she waits for your response.

You nod your head as you answer, "Night Light and Velvet..."

She smiles as she turns back, "Good."

As you reach the door she holds her hoof up to you, "Ok, so Night Light should be home...try and be nice."

You try to hold your smile as you think over her words, why would I not be nice?

With a knock of the door you and Twilight wait for a moment until the door is opened by white mare from yesterday.

Velvet blinks at you two a little confused as she talks, "Twilight? Why are you back today? Did something happen?"

Twilight  gives a little shrug as she talks, "Well...ya kind of."

Velvet losses her smile a little as she brings her hoof to her chest and talks in a stern feminine voice, "Twilight you're not pregnant again are you?"

"What? No no no, we were very careful..." Twilight tries to cover her comment up with a quickly laugh and change of tone as she talks, "....I mean I should go and check on Violet." Twilight gives her an embarrassed laugh as she ducks away from her mother's stare.

Velvet's eyes are a little wide to what her daughter's comment was so you give a forced smile as you walk around her, "Um...it was a nice vacation..." Velvet's eyes stay at their surprised width but now focused on you.

You nod your head as you quickly dart into the next room after Twilight, note to self never try talking again.

As you and Twilight both stand in the living room you bring your eyes to the smiling blue stallion who is playing a game of peek a boo with Violet. But his smile and game are quickly brought to an end as the little filly jumps from her spot on the ground and happily gives a hopping gallop over to where you and Twilight are.

"Hey honey..." Twilight sits back side to the ground as she holds her front legs open to the little fillies gallop. A few heavy wheezing sounds escape the little filly as her tail happily wiggles around her diaper.

Your brought from your gaze of the filly as the blue stallion stares at you two scrambling to stand on his hooves, "OH Twilight? Wh-why are you back so early." He clears his throat as he tries to take on a more manly voice, "...I uh I thought you two would be gone for a few days."

Velvet makes her way from behind you two her face no longer in a shocked expression. Although you can't really tell seeing as how she is avoiding eye contact.

Twilight looks up from the filly nuzzling her coat as she talks, "Well we kind of got kicked out."

The blue stallion's slight smile has now been cut from his face as he looks at you, "Oh really?"

Twilight clears her throat as she talks, "Yes, Blue blood and um...well there was kind of a fight and we were told to leave."

Velvet now stands at Night lights side as he thinks over Twilight's words, "So...you just happened to get into a fight with a prince hu?"

You listen to his voice that is starting to take on a heavy doubting tone you don't know why but his light orange eyed gaze has not moved from you since you entered the room and you're starting to feel like he is already judging you even though you have not even meet him before.

"No, Blue blood said some things that ..."

Night Light cuts off Twilight as he talks in a low but doubt building voice, "Oh no i'm sure there was a good reason why he attacked prince Blue blood."

You try to hold a smile as you think of something to say luckily Twilight talks before you can fail at speech again, "What no, Blue blood..."

"Yes the prince Blue blood was the problem I understand." Night Light again talks over Twilight in sarcastic voice trying to emphasize his words..

You feel your words start to come out of you with a building annoyance to how this stallion has not let Twilight say even one word yet, "Hey I..."

But your voice is calmed as you feel a warm fur brush up against your leg. You stop your words for a second as you look down to the little filly who has wrapped her front legs around your left middle and lower leg. The little unicorn stares up at you in a baby like blissfulness as she clings to your leg.

You take a deep breath as you look back from the little fillies face with a changed  attitude, "How was Violet?"

Night Light's squinted eyes change a little as his own gaze drifts down, "Fine." He gives a little laugh as he points his hoof to the unicorn around your one leg, "...That pony doesn't like to eat i'll tell you that much."

With the simple laugh from the blue stallion the rooms mood has changed.

Twilight pauses for a moment at her father's laugh before she talks, "Oh ya, that reminds me." She dips her hoof into the bag that still sits around your body. After a second of searching she brings it back out with a piece of paper, "...I forgot to give you the instructions on how to make the milk the way she likes it."

Velvet brings her hoof up to her head as she lets out a light hearted sigh, "Oh honey there were more list?"

Twilight scoops up Violet from below your legs as she walks over to the empty seat next to Velvet, "No only that one." She turns back from the seat to you as she places Violet down. Twilight walks back over to you as she helps you take the satchel off.

"What happen to your leg?" Velvet points her hoof at you as she waits for your responds.

You look over your fur as you talk with a slight laugh, "Magic."

"Ok, well we need to get ready to go." Twilight pushes on you to start walking but you have no idea where you're being pushed.

Night Light's voice gets its tone back as he watches you get pushed past him, "Where are you going?"

"Well I intended to get a hoofing book for Violet before we left, might as well do it now." Twilight continues to move you along as Night Light and Velvet try to talk in almost innocent, "But we need to talk to you two."

You finally see the point of her push as you take your first step up the stairs.

Twilight stops at the stairs for a moment as she turns back to her parents, "Whatever it is can wait until we get back."

They both look at each other for a moment before they give a nod to the lavender mare as she turns back to you, "First door on the left."

You walk down the hallway into the room with Twilight close behind you. The room has light purple walls and on one side of the room there is a faded painted on emblem of Twilight's cutie mark. You bring your head around the room as you look over every shelf, table top and chest around the room... whoa Twilight really liked books even when she was a filly.

You bring your head back to her as she quickly dumps the satchel clean on the bed. Its at this point you notice the purple crib on the other side of the room, the covers are neatly folded and the bag that you carried yesterday rest up against it.

"Thank you."

You bring your head up from the bag as you look to Twilight, "For what?"

She gives a giggle as she pushes the contents of the satchel to one side of the bed, "For not doing what I know you would have done."

You nod your head with a smile as you wait for her to finish her cleaning of the bag.

As she sets the items in a neat pile on the side of the bed her horn glows a low purple as she brings your tooth brush up from the pile, "Oh Spike must have forgot to take his brush out."

You stare at the brush as Twilight turns back with the empty bag over her, "Ok lets go."
