I Can't Believe That I Love You

Dreams

Luna was very tired, her and Celestia went on a small adventure around Canterlot.
When she arrived back in her bedroom, she plopped down onto her bed, and went into her slumber.

While she was asleep
Luna seemed to be in an odd place.
Somewhere she's never seen before.

"Hello Luna, my old friend." a voice had said behind her.
Luna turned around and saw Sombra behind her and tears started coming to her eyes.
"Sombra? What are you doing in my dreams?" a crying Luna asked.
"Shhhhh. It's okay. I know you're upset and confused." Sombra hugged Luna.
"I'm here because I need to talk to you. And I've got some ideas of what we could do."
Luna wasn't so sure about this since Sombra is evil and she's been crying over him for the past 24 hours.
"Luna, can I ask you something? Why are you this upset over me when I don't deserve for our old friendship?" Sombra looked away but Luna pulled him back.
"Sombra, I remember all the good times we've had we were younger. It's hard not to remember special memories that's always been in my heart." Luna said, crying but in happiness against Sombra's chest.
"Luna, this is your dream. How about you take us somewhere special." Sombra suggested and Luna gave a smile.

And with that, they ended up in a place whom both Luna and Sombra recognized: their filly/colthood!
"Um, Luna? Why are we here in a memory?" Sombra turned to a smiling Luna, who looked like she wasn't gonna stop.
"Shhhh, just watch." was all Luna said as they turned to the young versions of themselves.

"Lu? We're gonna get in trouble if we do this. You know what happened last time we did a prank on Tia." Young Sombra whispered at Young Celestia's sleeping chamber.
"What's wrong with getting in trouble every every once in awhile? It makes life much more interesting. Even Tia can admit that." Young Luna whispered back, with a mischievous smile.
It was hard for Sombra to resist those eyes of Luna's, especially in a time like this.
"Okay, fine. But you owe me in case we get in trouble." Young Sombra gave into his best friend.
"Okay, here's the plan. I'll distract Tia while you cover her room in whipped cream and crystals. And don't forget the note from her "Secret Admirer"" Young Luna winked.
Luna and Sombra had written a little note to make Tia think that Discord, Discord and Tia were gonna be angry once they found out about the prank.

An Hour Later

After the prank was finished, Young Celestia ran after the two best friends screaming "YOU TWO GET BACK HERE AND CLEAN UP MY ROOM RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!"
Of course they were laughing like crazy, despite the fact that Luna's older sister was screaming at them.
As present life Luna and Sombra were watching, Sombra realized something.
"Luna, was that really why you were crying over me so much today?" Sombra turned to Luna, who was looking like she was about to cry again.
"Yes, Sombra. That's the reason that I was crying over you so much today. Our memories are hard to forget." Luna sighed as a tear came down her cheek.
"If you want, I could leave if you want." Sombra turned away from Luna which only made her even more sad.
"No, no. Please don't leave. Wait a moment, how did you get into my dream anyway?"
"I'm a shadow pony, Lu, I've got these special talents as you do."
"Did you just call me by my nickname from my fillyhood." Sombra nodded to the question, which made Luna smile.
As Luna smiled, she suddenly went to vision mode, with Sombra still with her.
The vision was of a light black/grey unicorn stallion with a black mane and tail with midnight blue streaks in it and Luna standing together on a hill.
It looked a lot like Sombra, but only more handsome and more good.
Suddenly, a small pegasus with a black mane and tail with midnight blue fur coat.
"Mommy, can you tell me the story again?" the pegasus asked Luna.
Mommy? the present Luna thought to herself.
"Of course, Midnight. But we'll tell you later. Right, Sombra?" future Luna said, shocking present Sombra and Luna together.
Once the vision ended, Sombra and Luna just stood there in question.
"What do you think that meant? Because I'm so confused." Sombra asked his colthood best friend.
"I'm not sure, this may my dream but visions don't just appear from daydreaming."
The dream started shaking, a sign that Luna was waking.
"YOU'RE WAKING UP LUNA! I'VE GOT TO GO!" Sombra shouted as the image started fading.
"Sombra, WAIT!" Luna shouted as she was now awake.
"That really was a dream? But it felt so real." Luna said aloud as Celestia entered Luna's bedroom.
"Luna? Are you alright? You shouted as you woke up." Luna's older sister asked, Luna nodded to the questions.
"Good thing you awoke, your coltfriend is here." Celestia said, Luna sighed and climbed out of her bed.
When Luna arrived at the royal kitchen, every cook there bowed to her, including Big Mac.
"Hey Macintosh. How are you?" Big Mac kissed Luna's cheek.
"He's good. Hey there Luna!" Big Mac's sister, Applejack, greeted her princess of the night.
"Hello Applejack. How's the farm right now? It's cider season right now?" Luna asked the earth pony siblings.
"In two weeks yeah. But not just 'et." the orange earth mare said.
"Thank you for the information. Big Mac, still up for our date tonight?" Luna turned to her boyfriend.
"Eeyup. Applejack, think ya can manage bucking the whole row of applebucking while I'm with Luna?"
"I can big brotha, don't ya 'orry about a thing."
Little did Big Mac know that Luna had other plans for that date.
