Maybe I'm Dreaming

CH 13-Seeing each other again

For minutes there was no sound at all but suddenly, Gummy broke the silence with her gasp. “Are you my uncle Soarin?” and ran to Soarin. Soarin who was looking at his sister with wide eyes, stared at Gummy but smiled and said, “Yes, I am.”

As soon as those words entered Gummy’s ears, she screamed happily and hugged Soarin. Soarin’s smile got wider and hugged her back. “Hey, I’m your uncle too!” said Soarin’s brother who was sitting next to him. After Gummy heard this, she ran to her other uncle and hugged him too.

With this scene, others gathered they mind too. Cloudy who was looking at her family with wide eyes until that moment, ran toward her parents with teary eyes. Her parents who were looking at her with awe smiled and hugged her with teary eyes.

In the hoof, her husband ran to his family and greeted them. Cloudy was still with her uncles who were talking to her enthusiastically. It felt great to see two families find each other like this.

“I want to say sorry to all of you. My parents for leaving them like this, my brothers for not being a good sister for them, and my mother-in-law and my father-in-law for stealing their only son!” announced Cloudy with tear in her eyes.

Her mother smiled. “Honey, we all forgave too.” Then turned to Cloudy’s husband family with a smile. “And forgave each other.”

Smile and tears of happiness was visible in everyone’s face. I was looking at them with a big smile when somepony hugged me tightly out of nowhere. Because of the sudden surprise, I stumbled and fall face first into that pony’s chest. I opened my eyes which were uncontrollably closed and saw that pony’s pale blue fur. I quickly recognized that pony.

“Thank you! Thank you Rainbow. You have no idea how much that meant to me,” said Soarin with a big smile. I smiled at him too. He squeezed me harder to him and hold me tight. After some seconds, I put my arms around him and hugged him back.

I was smiling happily while I was filled with a great sensation. A good heat at my chest which was making me calm. I’ve never been as calm as this. And I clearly knew it was all coming from that pony who was hugging me tightly.

My head was on his chest and my arms were around his neck. He’s arms were around me too. Both of us were enjoying each other’s embrace and were completely unaware of the world around us. After some minutes of hugging, we slowly pulled away from each other and before we completely pull away, I heard Soarin whispered in my ear, “You’re a jewel. My jewel.”

I giggled and tried to hide my blush. So I turned to somewhere else and started to walk. If I stayed there longer, I would reveal my girly side to him. And of course I didn’t want to. Maybe I was always curious about romance and was eager to feel it but certainly not in front of that much pony.

Before I get to know, a certain little filly was jumping up and down in front of me. “Did uncle Soarin hug you?” I blushed again. Great this little filly saw that too. She giggled. “You’re blushing!” and she smiled. “So…will you marry him?” she said excitedly.

I smirked. “If he wants to marry me he should come and say it to myself.”

Gummy gasped. “OK! I’ll go tell him!” she was running toward Soarin, before I could stop her. I could hear her talking excitedly. “Uncle Soarin! Uncle Soarin!”

Soarin that seemed was watching me all the time, looked at her with a smile. “Yes?”

“Will you do something to me?”

“Anything.”

“Then…” she went and whispered something into his ear. With each word Gummy was whispering, Soarin’s eyes were getting wider and wider. Finally after Gummy pulled away and looked at him excitedly, he laughed and walked toward me.

I smiled too. I knew this was going to happen soon. When Soarin’s sister was finally going to know me. But, before Soarin got to get close to me, doorbell rang and I ran to open the door.

My smile got wider when I saw new guests. “Hey Speedy! Hey bro!”

Speedy looked inside curiously. “Does your mother have guest?”

“No. I mean, yes but come in.”

They shrugged and went in. “Who are they anywa…” said Speedy but stopped mid-sentence when she saw Cloudy Wing. “Cloudy?”

Cloudy turned around to find the pony who called her. “Ye…” she stopped mid-sentence too when she saw Speedy. “Speedy! What are you doing here?”

They went and hugged each other tightly. “But the questions is, what are YOU doing here?” said Speedy happily.

“Well, long story short, I went here to see my family and stopped by Rainbow’s house to rest. She accepted and then she brought my family here for me.” She looked at me with a smile.

“Rainbow? Well, you were so lucky cause…” Speedy didn’t continue because of me who was shaking my head rapidly to tell her don’t continue.

“Sooo…you didn’t tell me you know Cloudy!” I said with an awkward smile.

“Cause you never asked me. But I thought I said my best friend named Cloudy Wing. Didn’t I say so?”

“I guess you said.”

“Anyways, Speedy I didn’t know you have a sister!” said Cloudy.

“Cause I don’t. Rainbow is my sister-in-law.”

Cloudy looked at Speedy with wide eyes. “You’re married?!”

I left them and let them talk. Instead I walked to where Gummy was sitting alone.

“Hi again!”

Gummy gasped and looked at me. Then she grinned and called, “Uncle Soarin, she’s here.”

Soarin looked at us and chuckled. He walked toward us and stopped right in front of me. “I guess, if I don’t hurry she’ll send us to honeymoon soon!” we laughed.

“Sooo…?” said Gummy with excitement.

Soarin smiled at her. “Do you really want to know my answer?”

“Yes! Yes!”

Soarin looked at me. I was smiling. He was smiling too. He stood next to me and wrapped his arm around me. Just like the night at the amusement park. And I, like that night, was frozen there with a big blush and wide eyes. But this situation didn’t last too long. I gathered myself and smiled again.

“In fact Rainbow’s my fiancé.”

“SHE’S YOUR WHAT?” before Gummy could respond, her mother who was walking past us, said.

Soarin grinned and tightened his grip on me. “My fiancé. Problem?”

Cloudy was staring at us with wide eyes. “Mister, we have to talk later.”

Soarin simply shrugged and said. “Sure.”

Gummy wanted to say something when a certain annoying sound interrupted her. Once again, I went to open door. And…

“EVERYPONY, LET’S PARTY!” announced Pinkie happily.

“Pinkie how… forget it.” Then I turned to other ponies. “Let’s go and party with her!”
