A Princess's Secret

Twilight's Admission

Once Fluttershy let Twilight know that she was going to be staying with her whether she wanted to or not, she headed up to her bedroom to get changed into her night clothes before Twilight would see her. Once she got changed, she headed back downstairs and said, "Ok Twilight, I've changed. Now you get up there and get some sleep."

Lightning again struck nearby and the rain became even heavier. Twilight jumped a bit over the thunder and asked, "Fluttershy, I don't know if your bed is big enough but could you stay up with me?"

Fluttershy's bed wasn't all that big but she figured that it would suffice, "Yeah, I can stay up with you."

As the two arrived in her bedroom, something else crossed Twilight's mind. She looked at Fluttershy, saw her in her night clothes and asked, "Fluttershy, I don't mean to be a problem but do you have anything I can borrow for the night?"

Fluttershy replied, "Sure." She motioned for her to come over and continued, "Pick something out."

As Twilight began to look through her drawer, she became unsure if anything would fit because she wasn't confident that her and Fluttershy were the same size. After digging for a minute, she got to the bottom and found a couple silk night gowns that Fluttershy saved for hot nights. She looked at it closely and said, "I think this will fit me."

Fluttershy replied, "Alright, I'm going to head back downstairs while you get it on. Once you're fully changed, let me know and I'll come back up."

Twilight protested, "Couldn't you just keep your eyes closed while I change so you don't have to constantly be running back and forth?"

Fluttershy put her arm over her eyes and replied, "Yes, I can do that. Just let me know when you're done."

Fluttershy kept her eyes covered with her arm until Twilight notified her that she was dressed. Fluttershy had always been the more reserved type that never engaged in or did anything out of the ordinary but she couldn't help but smile when she saw Twilight. Twilight noticed her smile and asked, "You think I look good in this?"

Fluttershy was trying to think of something appropriate to say, something other than what was really running through her mind. After a moment of thought she replied, "Yeah, you look good." She then let out a yawn and suggested, "How about we get some sleep?"

Twilight smiled, "Yeah, that sounds good."

Twilight crawled into bed while Fluttershy was turning off the light. Once Fluttershy got laid down, Twilight began to get more nervous as she felt that perhaps the time had come to finally reveal what was bothering her so much. When lightning struck nearby again Twilight asked, "Fluttershy, could you hold me?"

This question caught Fluttershy completely by surprise as it was unexpected but she replied, "Of course I can Twilight, you know I'm here for you."

Fluttershy turned over onto her other side and put her arms around her. When she did this, lightning struck again and the rain became even heavier. Twilight curled up closer to Fluttershy, putting her head right underneath Fluttershy's. In her efforts to get as close as she could to her friend, her horn hit her chin. She asked, "I'm sorry Fluttershy, are you ok?"

Fluttershy replied, "Yeah, I'm ok." She had a feeling that Twilight was trying to send her a clear message but wanted to hear it from her directly. She continued, "Twilight, is you wanting me to hold you this close part of what you have been so nervous about?"

In a dreamy voice Twilight replied, "Mhmm!"

Fluttershy asked, "Do you have a crush on me?"

Twilight grabbed Fluttershy's hand that was on her stomach and moved it up further to where she would be cupping her breasts and much more loudly replied, "MHMM!"

Fluttershy couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth going through her as she was suddenly cupping Twilight's breasts. She asked, "Is this why you didn't want to discuss this one the train? Was it you wanting to tell me about this that caused you so much nervousness."

Twilight was so lost in Fluttershy holding her that again she said, "Mhmm!"

Fluttershy replied, "Twilight, how come you never told me this?" She then grabbed Twilight, turned her to where she was facing her and continued, "Twilight, I've had a crush on you for quite some time but I was always too scared to tell you about it out of fear of rejection."

Twilight knew that she couldn't keep replying to things the way she was, "I was worried about the same thing. You are so kind, so sweet and so beautiful and I thought a mare like you would never want a mare like me."

Fluttershy pulled her closer and replied, "Twilight, you shouldn't have been scared." She wrapped her arms around Twilight, pulled her face close to hers and asked, "Well now that we both know about our crushes, I have a question. Would you be my marefriend Twilight, would you make me the happiest mare in Equestria?"

Twilight's heart exploded when she heard this question. The pony that she had had her eyes on for so long asked her the question that she could only dream of. She began to cry tears of joy, "Yes Fluttershy yes. Yes I will be your marefriend!"

The two moved in for a kiss and when their lips met, Twilight's horn lit up entirely and both their wings spread wide. What started out as a gentle kiss became much more passionate and they wrapped their bodies together in a tight embrace. Both mares felt pure joy at that moment and wished that their kiss could last forever. While they knew that it couldn't, they both planned on making it last as long as they could.

After an hour of intense, passionate kissing, they finally broke the kiss and Twilight said, "I'm so happy to have you Fluttershy. You have no idea how happy I am!"

Fluttershy replied, "I think I know!" Lightning struck nearby again as the heavy rain continued. Fluttershy suggested, "What do you say we lay here, hold one another tight and listen to the rain and thunder."

Twilight had always wished she had a special somepony to do that with. She replied, "I'd love that sweetie!"

Fluttershy again pulled her closer to where her head was resting on her shoulder. The two wrapped themselves as tightly together as they could and laid there, listened to the rain and thunder while both began to think about the future. For Twilight this was pure bliss. What had been bothering her so much earlier had slipped her mind. No longer was she concerned about what her future princess duties would bring as she was thinking about her relationship she now had with Fluttershy.
