Chapter 10: Finally together
Drake put Moon to bed and walked back downstairs where Pinkie had been waiting. She smirked at him. "Something the matter, Diane?", Drake replied with a playful tone. "Oh, you know what's up. Dragging Moon in here with a smile like that? You confessed, didn't you?" Drake nodded lightly. "We uh..." A little blush appeared on his cheeks. Pinkie's eyes and mouth widened. "You kissed!?", she nearly shouted. "M-hm. And it was magical, Diane." She squeed as she heard this. "I hoped you would say that!" He simply smiled and began walking back to his room. Pinkie stopped him, though. "So uh, you two. Are you a thing now?" Drake chuckled at her question. "I guess we are, yeah. See you tomorrow, Diane." Pinkie nodded and walked back to her own room.
The next morning, Moon sat on the couch excitedly, occasionally looking at the staircase. She couldn't wait for her stallion to get out of bed, after all. Pinkie giggled at Moon and sat on the couch across her. "So, Moon. You enjoyed your date with Drake?" She nodded quickly. "Can't wait for 'im ta come down!" As she said this, Drake came downstairs smiling. "Morning, Diane. Moonshine." Moon winked at him. "Thanks fer last night, Drake." He looked at her with a confused face. "Last night?" Moon raised an eyebrow just like Pinkie did and glanced at her before looking back at Drake. "Ya know? Last night? The fireflies and we kissed 'n all?" Drake chuckled and hopped on the couch, nuzzling Moon's cheek, causing her to giggle. "I know, Moon. I'm just messing with you.", he replied playfully. They both gave each other a small kiss on the lips, and Pinkie "d'aww"-ed at the scene. "You two are adorable together, you know?" Moon giggled and Drake chuckled again, holding each others' hooves.
Drake's eyes widened as he glanced at the clock. "Oh crap, I'm gonna be late for work!" Pinkie giggled at this while Moon smiled awkwardly at him, and Drake hopped off the couch again. As he began running out, Moon quickly called him back. "Y'all leavin' me here without a kiss?" With a smile, Drake rolled his eyes, hopped back to give her a nuzzle and kiss and ran off again. A bit after that, Hot Shot came down the stairs, rubbing his eyes. "Mornin' there, Hot!", Moon exclaimed with a very bright smile. "Morning, Moon. What's gotten you in such a cheery mood?" She ruffled the colt's mane and giggled. "Just that yer dad and ah're datin', is all." Just like Drake's eyes before, Hot's eyes widened in the same fashion, showing a clear resemblance to his father. "You're WHAT!?", he replied, knowing what 'dating' meant, seeing how he had his own fillyfriend.
"Y'all ain't happy with that, Hot?" He quickly shook his head. "I'm very happy with that, Moon! That means you'll be a second mom!" Hot's day couldn't be ruined anymore. "Yer mum? Ah dunno, sweetheart... Sher, ah date yer dad, but ta think ah'd be yer mum..." Hot's ears dropped. "What do you mean, Moon? Don't you like me?" She grabbed the colt for a hug. "Hot, 'course ah like ya. But let's not git ahead of ourselves, OK?" Hot nodded and then turned to Pinkie. "Hey, Pinkie? Is Card awake yet?" With a warm smile, she replied. "He's in his room, Hot. You can go to him." Hot smiled back, hopped off the couch and trotted to Card's room.
Moonshine walked out, telling Pinkie she was going for a short flight to get used to her restored wings. Pinkie nodded and waved at Moon as she left. However, what Moon really was going to do was to plan a next date. And one they wouldn't ever forget.
