Cadance has always loved Twilight, from the very moment the younger pony had entered her life. Lately, however, that love has evolved and blossomed into something altogether more. Will Cadance have the strength to confess her feelings to the oblivious Twilight? With two meddling aunts, she may not have a choice in the matter.
Cadance/Twilight. Twidance. Whatever you want to call it.
Shining Armour and Cadance have never been more than best friends. Set mid season 4. The Changeling invasion and Crystal Empire arc both happened, just differently. May flesh those out in a future oneshot.
Chapters (2)

>HermitKlam
Instant thumbs up.
sorry to put it here and not on your blog post i'm having browser problems but i hope you update sleepless nights soon
And this smile on my face is proof that fluff still gets to me much better than any smut ever will.
TwiDance... ALL MY YES!!!!! Fav + Like !!!!!!
now if you would be kind.... GIVE ME MOR!!!!!
Yesssssss....
WHYYY? Are you some kind of super-author, designed to write every story I wish for? I mean, at this point I just need to auto-fav every story you release.
There are few Twidance-stories, and the few that exist right now are far from the fluff. But you jump to the rescue once again, with cuddling and cuteness and feelings.
).
I can't wait enough for part three, or any future Twidance you might write (Do it do it do it. Please?
Shouldn't this have an alternate universe tag? Since in this fic, Shining Armor and Cadance aren't married.
4146828
Agreed, toss us an AU tag and you can skip large chunks of the description.
Also, pardon me while I consider this a fork of Say It, in which Celestia has merely given Cadance a turn with Twilight. Because no one does "Twilight has the full attention of three princesses, one in particular" quite like you, HK.
4145481 Glad it was met with approval.
I also have a few ideas for prequels and sequels...
Aaaaand now it does. Thank you.
4145582 No problem; I'm endeavoring to update all of my stories in the near future, so you shouldn't have to wait too long. I'll either add the next chapter on as... another chapter... or mark Sleepless Nights complete and post an optional direct sequel...
4145642 Fluff makes the world go round.
4145704 Glad you liked it. There will be a third and last chapter released soonish... and I say soonish because I just realized that I have a zoology lab exam on monday...
4145995 I'll take that as an 'I like it'.
4146482 I, too, have noticed the low amount of Twidance stories, and since Cadance has grown on me and I enjoy using her in my other stories... well, I thought, why not?
4146828 Why yes... yes it should...
4146893 Awww, thanks. I enjoy the fact that you enjoy the fact that I have turned Twilight into the royal cuddlebug. As for this being a fork of SI, it is unfortunately not, though you can continue imagining it as so I don't believe it wouldn't harm the flow of the story any. As for actually making an au fork of SI... well, perhaps when I'm through with this trimester... and have dished out a few more chapters for SI...
4146954
More SI is a thing devoutly to be wished.
Also - did you notice this story is sitting in the Featured box?
4146963
I... did not, actually. Huh. Imagine that.
4146954 I don't know if your interested but I saw in a few of your other comments that you like TwiDance + your writting one, hehehe, maybe you would like to check out my TwiDance "Love's Light: Is it Possible to Love Again?"
... And then Luna went and said it.
*Straps on his recliner-seat-belt*

4147347 And then the Gates of Tartarus fell and this story abruptly shifts genres so hard you can hear the metaphorical gears grind.
4146954
This makes me so very happy.
Oh man, one of my fave AU ships.
I'm gonna read the hell out of this!
you dun goofed Luna
this is kinda new!, i like it alot -
next chapter saucy scenes
At first, I just saw Twidance and thought that hey, that's a rare ship, let's check it out... And it's good, but weirdly enough I'm feeling like I recognize it... But I also know I've never read it before.
And then I look at who the author is and realize it's HermitKlam and everything suddenly makes sense! Very few writes Twilight + Royalty as well as you do.
Now that you have one Twiliestia and one Twidance story, will you write a Twiluna and complete the set? I wonder, because I would read it.
Either way, good to see that you're writing and do keep up the good work!
Hah!
I really, really like this. The cuddling, the cuteness, the emotions. Plus, Twidance is adorable.
I'm going to read more of your stuff. But in the meantime, have this thumbs up and fave.
More Twidence. I've always wanted more Twidence.
It's always Twining. Twining this, Twining that. I'm totally up for incest fics, but Shining and Twi is just blah to me.
Always loved the idea of Twidence.
Ok this very well written, but not for me.
4150612 Thank you, and I wish you happy hunting on your search for stories more to your liking.
4150504 It is rarely shipped... Well, if this story turns out alright, I have a few ideas for some sequels (like perhaps an au version of 'Three's a Crowd')
4150488 Why thank you, I'm glad you like it. Cuddling and fluff seems to be a reoccurring theme in most of my stories... I just can't seem to help it.
4149266 That is... Thank you for... I'm glad you... I give up
I have no idea how to interpret that.
4149080 Wow, I didn't think my stories/ writing style would stick with a person so as to be that readily noticeable.
I'm glad you enjoyed the story - and my writing style. As for writing a Twiluna... definately, though that'll have to wait until the end of next month at the earliest; I'd like to finish up this school year and a few of the stories I have on the go beforehand.
4148986 I'm glad you like it. The next and last chapter will focus completely on Cadance and Twilight clearing the air and coming to an understanding. I don't know about sauciness, but I can guarantee cuddles
.
4148383 Do forgive the poor dear, she missed out on a thousand years of the chaos those words inevitably bring.
4148175 I'm glad you approve and, by all means, read it as many times as you wish
.
4147804 ...I may just be really tired but... yeah. It's 2am and my brain hurts, thus I must say that I'm not 100% sure what you meant.
4147347 I do so enjoy throwing around comments and heavily implying things...
4147128 I shall endeavor to do so. Tomorrow. Between *shudders* studying and working on my projects. It will be a welcome reprieve.
Luna... You may not understand since you've been gone for so long, but you have invoked the wrath of Murphy.
Go on...
4150733
Sorry for the lackluster response. Though that was just after I read the first chapter. Specifically when Luna made that comment about the only suitable mates for her and Celestia age-wise would be each other. I had very little time to actually post a comment and it was a... very real reaction regardless of how short it was.
4150733 I hope you enjoy reading it
Make more as soon a s possible. It is verry interesting.
"Twidance"...I like that name! It creates an interesting image in my head of two lovers dancing the night away...
Twidance? Na, I think I'm gonna go with CaLight I'm so sorry. Where I'm from that song is often mispronounced and it works. So sorry.
4149080
There More two royal are you fogetting( Just saying)
4153879
I'm not sure Shining Armor actually has a royal title through his marriage to Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, so his royal status is just a possibility, while Blueblood is a jerk, to put it nicely.
I don't see HermitKlam writing a story pairing either of them with Twilight, and I'm not going to ask him to either
I guess Sombra could be called a king, maybe through right of conquest or maybe usurpation (he once controlled the Crystal Empire?), but considering that he's evil and his whole personality can be summed up with "vague looming villainy and "CRYSTALS!"" it'd take a bit of work pairing him up with Twilight in a manner that doesn't involve him somehow corrupting her or outright rape and mindbreak (I EXTREMELY doubt Klam would write that, and I probably wouldn't want to read it even if he did).
Other than those three, idk who those two other royals you are mentioning could be.
And wow, this reply comment got a lot longer than I intended. I blame sleep deprivation
4154047
Chrysalis and sombra i was thinking
So... Here's a big issue: You don't establish any history of contact between Twilight and Cadence after the foal-sitting to allow feelings to evolve and change. Oh, Cadence says they have over time, but we neither see nor are told of any contact in that time. You established Cadence getting together all the time with Shining but not her supposed love interest. It makes Cadence's feelings feel a bit out of nowhere.
I'm not saying we need a lot here, but just something, anything prior to her stating her feelings. Even Cadence briefly reminiscing about the last time she spoke to Twilight and how such meetings were a regular thing before the confession would have been enough.
Beautiful
have a moustache 
4155973 Thank you; I shall cherish it
4155881 There is a reason for that. Though this story can stand alone, I'm leaving some things purposefully vague whilst hinting at other things so that - if when I'm done this story I find it satisfactory - I'll go back and expound on those issues in side-stories, sequels, and prequels. This was basically just a small excerpt from an idea that I had, that I wrote just to see if I could. The back-story's not there because, well, I haven't written it yet.
4155414 4154047 Er, I highly doubt that I'd ever write a Twi/Shiny or Twi/Sombra. Blueblood... that would be a comedy along the lines of 'how to lose a stallion in 10 days flat' (because barring a complete 180 in personality, Blueblood is too much of a jerk). Chrysalis?... I'd have to think on that one. Also, sleep deprivation is a legitimate
excuse for pretty much everything
4153113 4152554 Heh. They're Twidancing to CaLight
4152182 I shall endeavor to do so as soon as my schedule permits. Glad you're enjoying it.
4151836 Oh, one word comments are more than fine - it was just the tone behind it that I was unsure of. Was it a laughing 'hah!'? An I-can't-believe-I-just-read-that 'Hah!'? A seriously 'Hah!'?... So many things it could be...
4151284
4150983 Somepony had to say it...
Suspected as much. I believe most stories that pair Twilight with Blueblood, Shining Armor or Sombra are just clop-without-plot, as I think I've seen it called, which doesn't seem to be your thing at all, if your work so far is anything to go by.
That little "have to think on that one" regarding Chrysalis vaguely implies that you might actually write a Twilight/Chrysalis story at some point in the future... This does not displease me at all.
I have a shipping name for Cadence/Twilight: Candlelight. You just rearrange some letters around and viola a ship is made.
4157090 Ship Twi with all the royal mares! Chrysalis needs her turn as well!
In fact, we need more royal mares for you to ship Twi with. Or why not branch out into "Lady"-territory, with Rarity or Fleur de Lis?
A most joyest story indeed!
This is a Marviles story! And I await the last instalment of this wonderfly endering tale!!!
Lovely. Just lovely.
I as a little hesitant since it's twiance. Not sure why I hesitated
maybe I've more respect for shining armour as cadance's husband than I previously thought.
Regardless, I'm liking where this story is going and look forward to twi's reaction
I as for tags, I'd suggest slice of life as another tag
Please do finish. This is a good story and I'm really enjoying it.
You have no idea how glad i am you didn't leave it on a cliffhanger, with Twilight having yet to reach the station. Thank you so much. For getting them to catch up to each other before the end of the chapter. It was quite a relief.
I don't know why, but when I'm reading a good Fic I get pulled into the emotions within, hence why I feel annoyed when a story isn't finished and where it left off can seem cliffhanger.
Thankfully, you manage to make it cliffhanger, but in a way that is okay, because I can see the next chapter going the way I'd want it to.
I look forward to part 3 when it comes out
That's so adorably Luna right there...
Oh hell yes!
Now I can't wait for part three.
Loved it
Luna HAD to jinx it! Like Discord in a Twiluna fanfic said, we love that gag.
