Twilight wasn’t sure how she and Pinkie had ended up in their current position. Or maybe the better phrasing was why. She could recall the events prior perfectly. Her birthday party had ended and she was helping Pinkie take down the last of the decorations when she had tripped down the stairs, knocking into Pinkie. They had rolled a bit, and now she was on top of Pinkie.
Her front hooves were on either side of Pinkie’s torso as she looked down. Anything she had wanted to say left her mind as she looked into Pinkie’s eyes. She was certain she should move. Pinkie would ask her to any second now. A pink hoof reached up and touched her cheek, slowly moving toward her chin before dropping from her face.
Pinkie’s face was slightly flushed. Her curly mane fell away from her face in a way it never did when she was standing. Her smile wasn’t the enormous face splitting kind she normally wore, but it was one of the most genuine Twilight had ever seen her with. Finally, Twilight was caught in Pinkie’s eyes, the deep blue seeming to draw Twilight down slowly. She didn’t take her gaze away from Pinkie’s as the gap between them closed.
Twilight’s breathing increased as she drew closer. Her heart was beating rapidly against her chest. Her eyes seemed to shut on their own as her lips pressed against Pinkie’s. She felt as though her heart would burst from her chest, even as she felt Pinkie’s beating.
A pair of hooves wrapped around her, pulling her closer to Pinkie. Their lips moved together as if they had danced like that a thousand times. Twilight felt a hoof stroke up and down her back as their movements quickened.
Twilight had one hoof behind Pinkie’s head, pulling her as close as the two ponies could get. She heard Pinkie’s ragged breaths when their lips parted, only to be silenced by crashing together again. Twilight ran a hoof through Pinkie’s mess of curls as their pace slowed.
Finally, Twilight pulled fully away and moved to lay next to Pinkie. Facing each other, panting heavily, they simply smiled at each other.
“Happy Birthday, Twilight.”
