I saw King Cosmos and Queen Galaxia again in the Abyss.
"King Sombra was defeated rather swiftly thanks to your efforts." smiled Galaxia.
"I assume you both had something to do with the throne thing?" asked Fox.
"We... may have planted the seeds of an idea in our daughters heads..." said Cosmos.
"Yes, a friend of ours wants to move you... time-wise, he has, but only by a few years, we have let our daughters know through... third parties... he will move you soon but not before some important events." said Galaxia.
"Sounds ominous..." I said.
"We know, a sad event it coming up, be prepared, and you have been in here for a good few days, such is the law of the Abyss, but because of our friends influence it had been a few years and just before the event you will come back here." said Cosmos and everything faded away.
When I woke up, I was on the train in the same car, I headed to the castle and opened the doors, seeing the sisters made me smile, Celestia in particular.
"Hey Celestia! Luna!" I said, Luna looked rather... sad...
They both approached with smiles, even though I could tell Luna's was fake.
"Hello Frank." greeted Celestia and hugged me... ok...
"Err... hi." I said and returned it.
"Good evening fair Frank." said Luna and we hugged as well.
"So, how have you two been?" I asked.
"Very well, thank you." said Luna.
"I know you're lying to me." I said.
"It's just the stresses of court, it just annoys me." said Luna.
"Well, if you need any noble carved up or removed let me know." I chuckled
"Will do, I am going to Night Court, my sister was about to do some paperwork." said Luna and left.
"Yes, boring paperwork..." groaned Celestia.
"You have to do it?" I asked.
"To keep the nobles off of my flank." she said.
"Ignore them, you deserve a night off, maybe we could go out instead?" I asked.
"Out, like..." she started with a blush.
"Like a date." I confirmed, also slightly blushing.
"Well... err, ok, I know just the place!" said Celestia and we walked out of the Castle.
"So how have you and Luna been anyway?" I asked.
"I have been fine, Luna not so much..." said Celestia sadly.
"Why?" I asked.
"Ponies are afraid of the night, most sleep or are scared of the night." she said as we looked at the starts on the way there.
"I can't see why, it is beautiful, with only one thing that could compare, and she is standing next to me." I said.
"F-Frank!" exclaimed Celestia and blushed even more.
"What?" I asked.
"Stop!" she exclaimed, i retracted my mask.
"Wow, your muzzle-"
"Face."
"Face looks so... soft..." she said and touched a hoof to my face and felt some scars, luckily I didn't scar easily, but that doesn't mean I don't scar at all.
"I'm so sorry for what happened..." she said and tears fell.
"Hey hey hey, no tears." I said and wiped them away with my thumb as I cupped her cheek, we looked into each others eyes for a while before we turned to the view, we were on the edge of the cliff with a perfect view of the moon.
"Its wonderful isn't it?" asked Celestia.
"It is." I agreed, Celestia laid down with her forelegs curled under her, I noticed her toned muscles, rather strong, she also look incredibly mesmerizing in the moonlight.
I sat next to her.
"How are you and Luna so fit and healthy?" I asked and she laughed.
"You ask the strangest things." she chuckled.
"Really, I just noticed your muscles." I said and her face dropped.
"Oh, you don't like them?" she asked.
"What? yes, I think they look wonderful, I like strong girl- I mean mares." I smiled.
"Oh, good, most stallions are repulsed or scared by them." she said.
"I'm not, I think they suit your wonderful figure." I said.
"Me and Luna work out every afternoon before dinner actually, just in case, we can't afford to be complacent and it gives Luna a chance to burn her anger out, especially our magic sparring, but sometimes they can get a little out of hoof." she said.
"Maybe I could work out with you both? and referee the matches?" I asked.
"That sounds wonderful." she smiled and we looked at the moon a little longer.
"You look beautiful you know?" I asked.
"Do I?" she asked.
"Yes, you always look amazing." I said and we locked eyes again... and slowly our lips touched in our first kiss.
Hers were so... soft and warm, a little fuzzy, I loved it.
I opened my eyes as we pulled apart and she was wearing her beautiful blush.
"Come, we should get back, I must get to bed." she yawned, she got up and tripped, falling into my arms.
"A little dizzy?" I asked and helped her straighten up.
"Indeed." she said, trying to get back into professional composure.
We headed back to the castle and she stopped at her door.
"You can have the guest room, it's between mine and Luna's." smiled Celestia.
"Good night, your highness." I said and she shut her door.
I entered the guest room and lay down on the bed, smiling as I thought about my first kiss...
I sighed as I shut my eyes and surrendered to the call of sleep.
