//------------------------------// // Month#6: Yummy Name // Story: Running While Preggers // by Tiaa OwO //------------------------------// I woke up with the strangest feeling that I was being watched. I yawned and opened my eyes. I shrieked... ahem... I mean, I yelled and fell off the bed. Jasmine giggled. "Ah... what's up, Spike?" "Why are you... when did you...?" "Relax. I woke up an hour ago and I was watching you sleep." "You were watching me sleep." "Yes." "For an hour." "Yup." "Okay... lets pretend that isn't creepy and go back to sleep." "Oh no you don't!" Jasmine grabbed my claws and pulled me upright. "I've been waiting an hour for you to wake up. I'm not going to let you go back to sleep." "Why were you waiting an hour for me to wake up anyway?" I yawned again and stretched. Jasmine kissed me suddenly. My eyes widened. I wasn't tired anymore. "I was feeling restless, you know?" "Were you now." "I need my Spikey Wikey to make me feel better..." I blushed and gave her a shy kiss. Jasmine growled. Like, really growled. "Don't give me any of that, now." She pushed me down on the floor and straddled me. I blushed harder. "I want you to love me!" I had no problems with that. It was warm outside. Just perfect for hanging out with Fluttershy and Princess Luna. Jasmine created a little rain cloud above us for when the sun shined directly above us. "Once again, you amaze me, babe." I said. Fluttershy giggled as Jasmine blushed. Princess Luna gave me a playful smile. "What took you two so long?" "What? Nothing." "It seems like you two slept late to me." I blushed. Jasmine shot me a look that clearly said, Danm she's on to us! "N-no I... we didn't..." I stuttered. "How would you even know?" Jasmine asked. Princess Luna smiled. "Dreams." "Jasmine did you...?" "I don't remember my dreams! Did you dream about that?" "I don't think so." Fluttershy facehoofed. "I don't even want to know." then she said, "Have you met Eclipse LunarSol?" Thankful for the subject change, Jasmine and I nodded. "We met her on a run for ice-cream a month or two ago." "Did you now?" Princess Luna arched an eyebrow. "Yea. She was the captain after Shining Armor." Jasmine said. "Interesting." Princess Luna put a hoof to her chin and caressed it while deep in thought. "What if we all migrated to the elsewhere?" "Huh?" Fluttershy blinked. "You mean, we're not staying in Wakonda?" "I never said that." We all let out relieved sighs. "So we're staying." I smiled. "I never said that, either." I frowned. Jasmine groaned. "So, what are you saying then? It's one or the other. It can't be both!" "Very true words, Jasmine." "So which one is it!?" I put a claw on Jasmine's shoulder. "Easy." I warned. I rubbed her pudgy belly and she visibly calmed down. "Aww." Fluttershy cooed. "What if we and all the ponies from Ponyville and Canterlot went to another Country?" Princess Luna continued suddenly. "Ah... I'd be okay with it, I guess. As long as I'm with my girlfriend and my friends." I thought for a second. "And my uh, kids you know..." Jasmine kissed me on the cheek. I blushed. "Aww!" Fluttershy cooed again. "What if I was planning to head to the Crystal Empire with Eclipse LunarSol while Canterlot began renovations?" Everypony fell silent. "What?" we all gasped. "After we get a head count of everypony, sum up who wants to go, map out the journey..." "I'm up for it." Jasmine said. "But wait until after I give birth. I do not want to be in labor in the middle of some long journey." After a long chat with our friends, we came to a decision. We would head to the Crystal Empire after everyone finished their own respective businesses. To be honest, I was kind of relieved to see Twilight. She was reading all the books in the library as usual but it was still good to see her. I returned to the Inn with Jasmine and plopped down on the bed. She jumped onto it with me and pulled the covers over us. Let's just say, I got absolutely no sleep that night...
