The golden warmth illuminating the white sands all around her. Her tanned skin warmed by light she smiled unwrapping the silk skirt from around her waist and setting it on her light purple beach towel. She giggles glancing out and seeing her personal guards off in the distance. With a slight pout she glances around wondering where her date was. It wasn’t like Twilight to be late. A smile grew on Cadence’s lips as she remember all the little freak outs the young Aetherian had over the years. It seemed like yesterday Cadence was bribing her former charge out of her dorm into the world, or trying to get Twi to calm down and just kiss her Princess. A flash of purple light and a slight pop of air signalled Twilights arrival. “There you..” Cadence trailed off turning to see Twilight standing nervously fidgeting with her hands. The scholar wore a dark purple bikini that showed more of her dark skin than Cadence had ever thought she’d see out in public. A nervous blush appeared on the girl’s cheek and she smiles. Cadence eyes were drawn to a simple necklace hanging across Twilight’s chest. A light crystal heart on a silver chain. “H….hey” Twilight forced a nervous smile. She gasps as Cadence moves forward sweeping the girl into her arms and kissing her deeply. Their lips meeting Cadence giggles pink wings of mana forming from the taller woman’s shoulders and wrapping around to obscure the lovers for a moment. “Where did you get this?” Cadence asked gently lifting the stone. “I was researching in the library and I came across a book. Did you know that there was once an Empire in the north whose symbol was the Crystal Heart?” Twilight smiles and traces her finger over the similar mark on Cadence’s left shoulder blade. “One that looked just like your mark. It would help protect the people of the Empire and was said to help guide the peace of Equestria as a whole. I decided to make a necklace to remember both the legend, and my Princess” Twilight smiled up at Cadence. “It is beautiful. I love the bikini too..” She added with a wink and smile. “My little Twiley is growing up.” She stepped away her wings folding and fading as she swoons in pride. Twilight laughed and mock pouted sending a burst of sand against her lover. “Study showed that showing skin was a quick way to get an emotional response from a loved one.” She grinned and raised her head “I guess I should just head back to the libra...EEK!” She squealed as Cadence tackled her lifting her and gliding out over the water before dropping her into the warm ocean water. “Sorry Twi, You were about to summon the soup box.” She said landing gracefully in the water swimming over to the floundering scholar. Twilight just smirked at her. “See if I dress sexy for you ever again.” “You’re always sexy to me Twilight” Cadence pulled her into a kiss and smiled. “Lets just enjoy the day off from our lives.” “Yes Princess” Twilight replied with a dopey grin
