Twilight has been noticing Celestia has been acting strange lately, until she finds out Celestia wants to see her as "more" then a teacher and a friend.
Twilight has been noticing something strange is going on with Princess Celestia since the royal wedding, heck since she turned 22 years old, before she left for Ponyville. First, it started with some of the replies to her friendship reports. They all had a...romantic sound to how some words were worded. Then, she started being sent bouquets of lilac and white roses, her favorite type of flowers.
These all have to be coincidences, there was no possible way....it just can't be....
That's what Twilight thinks until she gets an invitation from Celestia to come up to Canterlot to talk. Twilight thinks it's just only to talk about her studies, but she will soon find out Celestia want's to see her as more then a mentor and a friend.
NOTE: This story does contain some mature situations, so you will have to be 18+ to read.
I have known you ever since I made you my personal student, but I want to talk to you about your future with me. I will order a carriage to pick you up at 9:00 tonight.
Your dearest teacher and friend,
Princess Celestia
That was the only letter Celestia sent to Twilight that morning, leaving the young girl confused all day. This wasn't the first time the princess sent something vague and, dare she say, romantic. She noticed this behavior started days before Nightmare Moon's return with Celestia giving her looks and winks, but Twilight dismissed this as her being nice like she always has been.
But then it got more..."noticeable" after Cadence and Shining Armor's wedding. It started with the letters sounding more romantic in tone and then she was being sent lilac and white roses, which were Twilight's favorite flowers. At first, Twilight took this as a good gesture, but after thinking it through, she came to a conclusion that maybe Celestia is....no..that can be...no way is she...
Twilight thought all of this while she was being carried to Canterlot Castle. "I wonder what the princess wants to talk about?" Twilight thought to herself "Hopefully she could explain all of the nice gestures and all the letters." Just then, she was at the entrance of the castle. Thanking the guards who drove the carriage, Twilight was then told by another guard that the Princess was waiting for her in her bedroom.
Her bedroom? That's sound very suspicious.
As Twilight was walking down the hallways of the castle, she began wondering why Celestia asked her to come to the castle. Unknown to her, Celestia was getting ready to meet with Twilight.
A Couple Hours Earlier
Celestia was busy putting on makeup when she heard someone knocking on her door. Calling to the person on the other side to come in, she then returned to her makeup. Her little sister, Princess Luna, then entered her room. "Hello sister, getting yourself ready for Twilight's visit?" Luna said with a playful tone in her voice "Oh Luna," said Celestia in a sweet voice "I never thought that this would be the day I told Twilight my feelings for her."
"Well to be honest, I was very surprised and shocked you had romantic feelings for her, especially since she is, or soon was your personal and faithful student." Celestia, not turning away from her dresser, replied, "I'm the one who's still surprised that you took the news so nicely and are fine with me being a... "girl-chaser." Luna, walking to her sister and giving her a shoulder hug, replied, "Well, I've known you since I was born and you did tend to act funny and blush a lot in front of the female delegates at every party and ball, plus the fact you had very "interesting" dreams about Miss Sparkle."
After hearing Luna mention about her dreams about Twilight, she blushed and returned back to getting herself ready. Luna then looked at her watch and said, "Well, I have to go. The Duke of Eagleton is coming to discuss setting up trading with his nation." "I wish you good luck tonight sister, I know you'll be able to do it!" Celestia then went and hugged the Princess of the Night and said, "I hope so to Luna, thank you." Before Luna left, however, she then said, "Oh, and Celestia, don't do anything stupid that might ruin everything." Celestia then chuckled and went back to her dresser and started to style her hair. I know Twilight will understand, I also hope she has feelings for me too.
Present Time
Sighing, Twilight knocks on Celestia's bedroom door. She hears Celestia's voice asking her to enter. As Twilight enters, she notices the rose petals on her bed and the scented candles on the dressers. "Um, Princess," said Twilight "Where are you?"
"Right behind you Twilight." Twilight jumped at the sound of Celestia's voice. When she turned around, Twilight couldn't believe her eyes. Celestia looked very different than usual. Instead of her usual white gown and crown and necklace, she was wearing a red satin dress, blue eyeshadow, and pearl earrings. Twilight just stood there stunned. Celestia then giggled and said "Do you like what you see, Twilight?" Twilight was at a loss for words. I've never seen Celestia like this. Twilight thought Something is definitely going on here.
"Twilight, are you OK?" Twilight then went back to reality and answered, "Oh yes, I'm fine" Celestia then motioned Twilight to her bed to sit down. "Do you want some wine, Twilight?" Twilight said yes and Celestia went to pour a glass for herself and Twilight. Remembering why she is here, Twilight said "So Princ..." Celestia then put her finger on Twilight's mouth to quiet her and told her, "Please Twilight, call me Celestia." Twilight, confused but not wanting to upset the Princess, corrected herself, " OK Pr.. I mean Celestia, but you said you wanted to talk to me about my future."
Celestia replied "Oh yes, I actually have something to say to you. You see Twilight, I have known you since I made you my personal student." Twilight chuckled and said "Well, of course I know that." Celestia sighed and said "But you didn't know that I have always saw you as the daughter I have never had. But as you got older, I saw you as something "more." "More?" Twilight thought. She started to think until she realized "Wait, she's not...she can't be!" "Celestia, are you..." Celestia chuckled then, with all her will, finally told Twilight what she's been wanting to tell her for the past year.
"T-Twilight, I..I..I love you, as in, I romantically love you."
Celestia then pulled herself to Twilight's face and kissed her on the lips. Twilight's eyes then widened as Celestia's tongue wiggled in her mouth. "I...I can't believe this." Twilight thought to herself as Celestia was making out with her. "Princess Celestia, my mentor, my idol, my friend...is a lesbian...and has a crush on me, and is kissing me!"
Twilight then pulled out of Celestia's kiss and looked at her with shocked but miffed expression. Confused, Celestia said, "Wha..what's wrong Twilight?" Twilight, after breathing in, replied, "Princess, I..I can't accept this." Celestia then gave a shocked look that Twilight took as worry. "Oh, did I come on to you a little fast...oh I didn't mean to kiss you...It's just....DAMMIT CELESTIA,DAMMIT!" Celestia stammered. Twilight then put her hands on Celestia's shoulders to calm her down and said, "Look, I understand why you did all this and It's OK." Twilight said to the Sun Princess, "I mean, look at me." "I'm smart, courageous, have good charisma, good at listening, I'm practically anyone's nerdy but perfect dream girl." As Twilight said this, she notice Celestia blushing and smiling at her. Twilight then sighed and said, "It's just that....well...how can I put this gently without upsetting you or you getting mad at me." Or worse, banish me to the Moon. Celestia then got a worried look on her face and said, "Well...what is it Twilight?" Twilight then,with all her might and courage,closed her eyes and said,
"I...I'm not...really a lesbian."
Twilight then put her arms to her face expecting Celestia to punch or slap her or incinerate her, but nothing of the sort happened. Twilight then lowered her arms and opened her eyes and saw Celestia wearing a look of sorrow and distraught. Twilight tried to say something, but then Celestia put her hand up and said "I understand Twilight." Twilight, confused, said, "Are..are you sure?" Celestia then smiled and said "I'm absolutely positive." Twilight gave a sigh of relief and began to walk towards Celestia's bedroom balcony. "Well then," Twilight said, "I have to get back to Ponyville, gotta do some...studying and stuff." Celestia then said, "Alright Twilight, I'll talk to you later." But before Twilight left, she said, "Uh, are you sure your OK?" Celestia then nodded her head and Twilight sighed once more. "All right, I'll talk to you later then...uh...have a nice night." Celestia then giggled and said "Goodnight, Twilight." Then Twilight, with a worried look on her face, teleported back to Ponyville.
As soon as Twilight left, Celestia's smile then turned into a frown. Her eyes started to water up and, in a fit of rage and sadness, began to cry like she has never cried before. As if on cue, Luna then opened Celestia's bedroom door and entered, not noticing her sister in such distraught. "Ugh, these trade discussions get boring and boring every year!" Luna said with a annoyed voice. Noticing her sister with face buried at the foot of her bed, walked towards her and sat down next to her. Luna, with a smile, said, "So Celestia, how did things go with Twilight?" Celestia then jerked her head up and started to once again, cry her eyes out. Luna then noticed these weren't tears of joy, but tears of heartbreak. Luna, without thinking, then said, "I guess things didn't work out." Then Celestia stopped crying and gave Luna a look that screamed "No shit, you idiot!"
The Next Day
Twilight was still recovering from last night. She didn't want to break Celestia's heart, but she had to come clean and tell her she didn't feel the same way as her. Twilight need to tell someone about last night, so she then contacted her friends to come over and discuss what had happened the night before. A hour later, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie were now over at the library and Twilight began to discuss what happened between her and Princess Celestia the night before.
After hearing her story, the Mane 5 were in shock, but Applejack then replied, "Dang, I never knew the princess liked to 'roll around in the haystack' with girls." Rainbow Dash then said "So what if Princess Celestia is a lesbian, it's not like it's the end of the world!" Twilight then said back, "Well, what was I suppose to do?" "I couldn't just blindly fall for her, I'm not even a lesbian myself for Faust's sake!" Rarity then walked up to Twilight and said, "Twilight, darling, just tell us if it's true but...are you homophobic?" The others then started agree with Rarity. It would be a logical reason for Twilight to reject Celestia. Twilight then got mad and said, "Heck no! My family is one of the most, if not, THE most prominent families in Equestrian history to fully support same-sex relationships and marriages! Heck, my great-great-great grandfather, Nebula Star, was gay and my grandmother 10x removed, Ceres Comet, was a lesbian and the one who created the spell which allowed a couple of the same sex to have children!"
Twilight then started to pant from a loss of breath as she saw her friends were giving of shocked expressions. Twilight then calmed down and said, "It's just, I don't harbor the same feelings Cel... I mean the princess does." Then Pinkie Pie, with a sly grin, said, "Well, if that's true, then why don't I set you up on some dates?" Twilight and other were confused, but then Twilight replied, "What do you mean, Pinkie?" Pinkie then got up in Twilight's face and said, "Well, if your not a lesbian like you say you are, then how about you start dating then." Twilight then got irritated and said "Is this someway to make me 'come out of the closet' by proving I can't show chemistry to any guys here in Ponyville?" Pinkie gave another sly grin and said "Mayyyybeee." Twilight then gave a cocky face and said "Fine Pinkie, I'll prove to you that you're wrong and that I'm not a lesbian, besides, I do need to start dating anyway, I'm not getting any younger." Twilight and Pinkie then shook on it and Pinkie made a Pinkie Promise to prove Twilight wrong.
A little bit later, the Mane 5 had to go back to there homes. As they all said goodbye to Twilight, they started to discuss Pinkie and Twilight's bet. Fluttershy was the first to speak as she said, "Um...Pinkie...don't you think it's mean to Twilight to have a bet just to have her come out about her sexuality?" Rainbow Dash said agreeing, "Yea, there is nothing to prove Pinkie, Twi is a straight girl, done and done I say." Pinkie, however, said, "Nope, I know she's a lesbian!" Rarity then replied, "Um, no offense Pinkie, but Twilight didn't give off the slightest hint to her hiding the fact she's a lesbian." Pinkie then said to all of them, "Did none of you noticed when she was describing how Celestia kissed her, she smiled and blushed as though she enjoyed it." Applejack then replied "Bullcrap, that's not good enough evidence Pinkie, she was probably embarrassed about it." Pinkie then raised an eyebrow and said, "Then why did she instantly stop and changed her tone?" They all tried to counteract Pinkie's statement, but none couldn't. Pinkie then said "That's what I thought." "Besides," she continued, "I know Twilight wasn't the only one who was blushing and smiling when she described the kiss." As she said this, she turned her eyes to Applejack and Rainbow Dash, as if she was referring to them. Applejack and Rainbow then blushed and turned away from each other. Pinkie then told them, "Besides, In my opinion, I give Twilight a couple of weeks before she cracks, or untill the author reaches the 4th or 5th chapter, depending which comes first." The girls then gave Pinkie a confused look as they all decided to hang out at Sugarcube Corner before heading to their homes.
Later That Night
Twilight was just about to get ready for bed when her fateful companion and adopted little brother, Spike, came into the bathroom. Twilight was confused with Spike's expression and asked "What's wrong Spike? Why are you giving me that look?" Spike then told Twilight, "It's Princess Celestia, she hasn't sent any letters today." he continued "Do you think something is wrong with her?" Twilight then gave Spike a hug and told him about what had happened the night before. Spike was in shock but he understood why Twilight did what she need to do. Twilight then said, "I just hope this can all blow over soon." Spike then returned her a hug and said goodnight to her. Twilight said goodnight back and hopped into bed. Before she drifted into her sleep, she had something going on in her mind. I really hope Celestia's OK. Twilight thought to herself, I just hope she had a good day today to make her forget about last night. With all that, Twilight drifted off to sleep with her thoughts about Celestia's well-being going through her head.
The Tribunal of Canterlot was one of the oldest courts in Equestria, formed by Celestia and Luna when they were crowned the fair princesses of the nation. The Tribunal usually deal with governmental problems, trading issues, and national quarrels. While the court discussed and did the votes, It was always Celestia and Luna who had the final say. Today, the Tribunal were discussing city ordinance.
"So, now we move to Order #2345764332, fixing all of the broken street lights and lamps. Now, I have a good idea of how to do this, first we..." said Quill Quibbler as he began to introduce the next order of business until he notices something was wrong with Celestia. "Princess," said Quill Quibbler, "are you OK?" "You look like you haven't slept in days." The other members of the court all then start looking at Celestia. Celestia did in fact look like she hadn't slept in days. Her eyes were red and her hair and makeup were very unkempt. Celestia than said, "I'm sorry, It's j-just that...I didn't get much sleep last night." Luna then spoke up and said, "Don't worry my dear friends, It's just....she had a hard time last night." One of the members of the court then said, "I guess that where that crying came from." Unfortunately, Luna heard that and gave him a death glare. Luna then said, "May me and my sister be excused for a while." Quill Quibbler agreed and ordered a 3-hour recess.
Celestia and Luna decided to walk through the royal gardens and talk about Celestia's dilemma. "Sister, I know what your going through but..." said Luna, until Celestia interrupts and yells at her "NO YOU DON"T! YOU'VE NEVER HAD THE ONE YOU HAD A CRUSH ON TELL YOU THEY DON'T SHARE THE SAME FEELINGS AS YOU!" Luna then tries to comfort her brokenhearted sister until Celestia blasts a beam of magic at Luna's face. Celestia, realizing what she has done, goes and hugs her sister "L-Luna!" sobbed Celestia "I...I didn't mean to h-hit you...i-it's just..." then Celestia breaks out and cries on Luna's shoulder. "It's going to be alright sister, we can make it through this together." Celestia, in a fit of rage, pushes Luna and tells her, "I don't need your help Luna!" "I'm going to my room, where nobody can bother me!" Luna tries to stop Celestia, but she is to late as Celestia teleports to her bedroom.
Celestia didn't show back up to the court 3 hours later, she didn't even show up for lunch or dinner that night. After dinner, Luna went to go check up on Celestia. When Luna reached the door, she was glad it wasn't locked Thank goodness she didn't magically lock the door. Luna thought. When Luna opened the door, she was relieved to see Celestia in her bed, safe and sound. Luna then walks over to the sun princess and notices she was quietly crying. "L-Luna," Celestia said when Luna approached her, "I-I-I'm s-sorry about w-w-what happened earlier t-this morning." Luna then petted her head and quieted her. "Shh,Shh,Shh, It's going to be alright sister." Luna said trying to calm her sister down. "No really, I'm absolutely sorry for yelling at you earlier." said Celestia, "It's just....what Twilight said to me was hurtful, telling me she doesn't share the same feeling I felt when she grew to be a mature and beautiful young woman." Luna then gave her sister a hug and reassured her that things will get better as time goes by. Celestia, however, says, "No Luna, even after dating countless dukes,kings,maidens, and duchesses, none of them will ever be as great and wonderful as Twilight." Luna then nods her head, knowing she can't force Celestia to get over Twilight, but to let things go naturally.
Just as Luna is about to leave, Celestia asks her to do something important for her. Luna asks, "What do you want me to do Celestia?" Celestia then says, "Can you sing me to sleep Luna?" Luna was surprised by this. Usually, it's her that gets sung to sleep by Celestia, even after thousands of year. But, knowing the circumstances, Luna smiled and agreed to sing her sister a lullaby. Luna then tried to think of some songs to sing to her sister, until she remembered one that Celestia sung to her when she was young and was sung to her by their parents when she was also young.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
You make me happy, when skies are gray.
You've never know dear, how much I love you.
Please don't take my sunshine away.
After singing that last lyric, Luna saw her sister finally asleep. Luna then smiled and kissed Celestia on the forehead and said "Goodnight my dear sister, may you have the most pleasant of dreams." Luna then left the room and went to her own to get ready for bed. As she was getting ready, she decided to walk out on her balcony. Luna noticed that the lights at the local library in Ponyville were still on. Luna then sighed and thought to her self, "Oh Twilight Sparkle, my sister still cares for you deeply." "I just hope you'll understand soon." Luna crawled into bed and began to sleep and begin her night-job of helping people in their dreams. Before she drifted off, she still had worries for her sister, knowing this might be the last time she'll be happy, until at least Twilight comes to her senses. Please goddesses, keep my sister safe, and please, let her be happy. With that, Luna fell asleep and went an did her duty to protect people in their dreams.
Twilight thought that dating would be as easy as casting a simple spell, but that would soon bite her in the butt, big time. Being Twilight, she first read every single book on dating. She practiced dating edict with Spike, which lead to some awkward situations. She also got dating tips from her friends, mostly from Rarity. "Remember Twilight," said Rarity during another discussion about dating, "boys sometimes aren't good listeners, but you should continue a conversation." Twilight, meanwhile, was writing down notes as Rarity was giving her tips. After getting enough information, Twilight felt she was ready....
...until she actually went on the date Pinkie Pie had setup.
Twilight instantly got bored when on that first date. The guy Pinkie setup with Twilight, Scented Pines, was, for a lack of a better term, an obsessive neat freak. Always talking about his soap collection, 101 different ways to clean out a stain, and other things that Twilight couldn't stand. "Well, that's just one flub-up, hopefully the next one is better." Twilight said after coming home from that disaster called a date. Well, Twilight was about to be wrong, over and over again. Next was a guy who kept talking about how much he loves to work out. Then there was the guy who had bad breath. Then, to top them all off, there was a guy who care nothing more then to admire himself. "UGH!" Twilight said coming home from another failed attempt at a date, "I'm gonna kill Pinkie Pie for theses sideshows she calls eligible bachelors!" "Oh, come on Twilight," said Spike in a reassuring voice, "maybe Pinkie saving the best for last." Twilight then replied as she was getting ready for bed, "Phft, yea right, and I'm gonna be the mayor of Crazytown." Spike then said, "Your running for mayor of Crazytown?" Twilight shook her head and gave Spike a hug goodnight.
As Twilight was about to go to sleep, she heard Spike's letter delivery spell go off. "Could that be from...." Twilight thought as she ran downstairs to Spike's room. As Twilight opened the door, Spike had a worried look on his face. Twilight asked Spike what was wrong and it turns out Princess Luna had sent Twilight a letter. "Well, what's it about?" said Twilight. Spike sighed and said, "It's about Princess Celestia." Twilight, now with a worried look on her face, snatched the letter and started to read it. It read:
Dear Twilight Sparkle,
I'm sorry to write this letter so late, but this is about my sister. She is in what seems to be an endless depression. She hasn't eaten in 3 days and any attempts to cheer her up cause her to think about you, which is making her even more depressed. I hope soon, and if not, very soon, you can come up here and talk some sense into her.
Sincerely,
Princess Luna
Twilight was distraught at this news. The princess is depressed because of....me? Twilight then jumped back to reality and gave Spike a big hug after noticing he was starting to cry, telling him that Celestia was going to be alright. But as Twilight was about to go to sleep, she thought to herself, "I hope your alright princess, I know you'll be able to pull out of this." With that, Twilight was finally able to get to sleep. However, the dream she had was different from any other dreams she's had before. In it, she was sitting on a hill...with Princess Celestia. Her and the princess were just sitting there, until they started kissing each other, and for some reason...Twilight was enjoying it. She was basically having one of the best dreams she had in years and had a peacefully goodnight sleep.
One Week Later
Twilight was basically about to give up on dating until Pinkie Pie made one more recommendation. "Oh come on Twilight! This one has perfection written all over it." said Pinkie Pie after coming over to the library. "NO!" Twilight shouted, "I'm just done with dating right now." "Alright then, I guess I was right." Pinkie said with her sly grin. "What are you talking about Pinkie?" said Twilight. "Well, you couldn't find any chemistry with the guys I set you up with, so I guess I was right, you are a lesbian!" Pinkie exclaimed. Twilight then got mad and said "Fine Pinkie, lay it on me! Who's next!"
Well, Pinkie was right. The guy she set up for Twilight, who's name was Leo Star, was actually perfect in every sense of the word. He was smart, funny, a good listener, and other attributes that Twilight would find in a guy. He would seem like the perfect guy for her. In fact, the date they were on was going pretty well. "So then I said that book was in the unlisted section." said Twilight, "But it was actually on the nonfiction shelf!" Twilight and Leo were hitting it off well until Twilight got silent. "Hey Twilight, you OK?" said Leo. Twilight then replied, "Huh..what...oh, yea I'm OK, just...kinda...." But Twilight then thought back to the dreams she has been having lately. It took her a while to figure out but then her face lit up. Twilight then said, "Well Leo, thanks for the dinner, but I have to go." Twilight then left leaving Leo confused.
Twilight ran as fast as she could to get home. When she got there, she noticed all of her friends were all ready here. "Wait..how did you all..." Twilight asked until Spike said he let them in. Twilight then said, "Well girls, it's good you are all here because, I have something to admit." The Mane 5 were all intrigued except for Pinkie Pie, who knew what Twilight was gonna say. "Well I lost the bet because....well...."
"I think I'm in love with Celestia."
Pinkie then spoke up in a sing-song voice "I'm sorry Twilight, but what did you say?" Twilight, annoyed, said louder, "I think I'm in love with Celestia!" The Mane 5, sans Pinkie Pie who was bouncing up and down exclaiming "I KNEW IT!", were in a complete shock. Applejack was the first to speak up, "Well, it took you long enough Twi!" Rarity followed, "I agree, it's about time you came out and said it." Pinkie Pie then gave Twilight a hug and said, "I knew it. I knew the author was going to this, despite it being kind of rushed, but still, I knew you were a lesbian!" Twilight, smiling,then pulled Pinkie off and said, "OK, OK, I admit, I'm a lesbian for Faust's sake!" Fluttershy then asked Twilight how she figured out her sexuality. That's when Twilight got a bit embarrassed but told them about Luna's letter she got the week before and how she then was worried about Celestia and the multiple dreams about her and Celestia doing romantic things. "Basically, I felt...happy and that I wanted to be with her." Twilight said as she finished her story. Fluttershy then said, "Oh, it's just like something out of a romance novel!" The others agreed with Fluttershy's statement. "Well, that's settles it Twilight, go to her." said Applejack. Twilight wonder why, then Applejack said, "Well, you now love her and she has always lo..." All of the sudden, Spike burped out a letter. Twilight grabbed it and saw it was from Princess Luna. When she started to read it, I didn't give off good news.
Dear Twilight,
Things have gotten worse than worse. First off, Celestia hasn't said a word to me, not to mention, she looks like as though someone has died. Then, as soon as dinner was done, I went to check up on her, and she...she's...
The rest of the letter was full of tear drops, but nether the less, it was still eligible.
She has locked her doors with a powerful lock spell that I can't get rid off, not only that, she also locked all of the windows and had the curtains magically closed. I fear the worst, but I still have hope. Please Twilight, come to Canterlot Castle as soon as possible before things get worse!
Princess Luna
Twilight was now scared, and so were her friends and Spike. Celestia locking all of her doors or windows, shutting herself from her sister and anyone else who could help her. Now Twilight was even more confident to go to Canterlot. But just as she was stepping out of her front door, another letter came out of Spike's mouth. This one was from....Princess Celestia. The Mane 6 gasped, what was Celestia doing writing letters in such a depression. But as soon as Twilight opened the letter, she had a the feeling of shock, sadness, and fear all going through her. The others were wondering what was in it, leaving Twilight to read it out loud. The letter read as follows.
To my former student Twilight,
This will be the last time you or anyone else will hear from me. When I watched you grow from a young girl who I saw as the daughter I never had to a beautiful mature woman, I wanted to be with you until time stopped. But because of your rejection, I cant take this pain anymore. I have no choice but to end my life, if only to end this excruciating pain. I will never forget you Twilight, and I will always love you, my sister, and my subjects. One more thing, please keep them safe.
Twilight couldn't believe it....she didn't want to believe it. She kept re-reading the letter, over and over again. It..it didn't even sound real to her. But there it was, plain and simple. Princess Celestia was going to kill herself, and it was caused by Twilight herself rejecting Celestia's love for her. Twilight silently cried to herself as she thought, No...this..this can't happen. I won't let it happen! Twilight's face then turned serious and she ran out the door, but before she left, she turned and saw her friends looking worried. Twilight then reassured them that things will be better and told them all to stay at the library for the night. "If I don't come back, then that means Celestia is safe and sound," Twilight said, "but if I do come back....then, that means I was too late." But Twilight didn't want to think about it, she needed to get to Canterlot Castle. She said goodbye to her friends and left for Canterlot.
Twilight raced down the streets of Ponyville, passing all of the stores and marketplaces. She was on a time limit, she had to hurry. Maybe I'll take the train. Twilight thought, That's it, I'll take the train and...no...that will take too long. Twilight kept thinking of different types of transportation to get to Canterlot. She kept thinking how to get there fast....and time was running out. Come on Twilight, think, Twilight thought to herself, Celestia is going to die if you don't find someway to get to Canterlot, so how can... Twilight then realized one way to get to Canterlot...one that she just remembered and made her facepalm herself. "Of course Twilight, how could you forget..." and she teleported herself to Celestia's bedroom.
A Few Minutes Earlier
Princess Celestia sat on the edge of her bed and silently cried. She couldn't get the moment out of her mind. Twilight had hurt her emotionally, and she couldn't get happy the last few weeks. Nothing, not even Luna comforting her, could cheer her up. She was in pain....and she was going to end it. First, she locked the doors with a powerful lock spell. She then locked the windows and put a spell on the curtains, so that no one could stop her. She then began writing out a suicide note for Luna and the castle staff. While she was doing this, she began to cry, knowing what she was doing was not right, but she needed to end her pain. After writing the note, she began writing a letter to Twilight telling her what she was going to do. After she was done with it, she used her magic to send it to Twilight.
With all of that done, she then conjurers up a rope. Sighing, she throws it up to her chandelier and ties it up like a noose. Before she put it on, she looked at it. Is this the right thing to do? Celestia thought, Should I leave all my friends...my family....my subjects....Twilight...no, this needs to be done. She then put the noose around her neck. "Please forgive me, everyone, especially you Twilight." Celestia said to herself as she tied the knot on the noose
Present Time
Celestia was standing on her dresser stool, ready to jump off and finally end her pain. Just before she jumped, however, a flash of light filled the room. "CELESTIA, WAIT!" Celestia then turned around and saw Twilight, out of breath and shocked. "Twilight..." Celestia said, before she tripped and was now hanging, gasping and gagging for air with only minutes of it left. "NOOOOOO!" Twilight screamed. Knowing Celestia had only minutes, if not seconds of air left, she used her wits and mind and fired a magic beam at the rope and it and the noose were incinerated and turned to ash. Celestia then fell to the ground, gasping and coughing as she was trying to breath, with Twilight running towards her. "'cough' Twilight 'cough' why did you do that 'cough'," Celestia said as she tried to stand up, "why didn't you let me 'cough' end it all, end my 'cough' pain." Twilight, with tears in her eyes, then hugged her mentor and said, "I-I-I couldn't l-let you d-d-do this." Celestia looked shocked and then said, "Twilight, you hurt me emotionally, so what's the point of keeping me alive with me being forever alone without love." Twilight then calmed down and said, "Well 'sniff' there is one thing I can say and do that can change your mind." Celestia then gave Twilight a stern look and said, "Yeah, and what can you say or do to change my mind?" Twilight then pulled Celestia towards her face and said, "This." and pull Celestia in and kissed her passionately.
Celestia's eyes widened when Twilight kissed her, as she was not expecting it, but then she closed her eyes. When Twilight pulled away from Celestia's lips, she then said, "I love you too, Celestia." Celestia felt as though her heart had skipped a beat. She was definitely not expecting Twilight to say that, but that didn't matter, Celestia smiled at Twilight and Twilight did the same. They both pulled back in and kissed each other very passionately. They stayed there, in each others arms. They were, for a lack of a better term, finally together. As they were kissing, they didn't realized how much noise they caused. They stopped when they heard footsteps. As if on cue, Luna barged open the door (Celestia's spell on the doors and windows and curtains wore off) and looked like as though something has gone terribly wrong. "SISTER, ARE YOU ALRIGHT," Luna screamed as she looked around, "I HEARD SCREAMING AND..and...and...oh." Luna then noticed Twilight and her sister in each others arms and then put two and two together. "So, you and Twilight are..." Luna said when Twilight and Celestia then nodded in agreement. Luna then put on a smile and breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, I'll let you two get back to your little 'make-out session'." Luna said with a sly smirk as she left. Twilight and Celestia chuckled at this as Luna left. Twilight then got up and said, "I'm sorry I had to cut this visit short Celestia, but I told my friends that..." but before Twilight could finish, Celestia put a finger on her mouth and said, "Twilight, will stay here with me for the night?" Twilight blushed and said, "Well, I don't know if I should, I mean.." but the Celestia said, "PLEEEAAASSSE!" while giving her a puppy dog face. Twilight then accepted defeat and said she would stay for the night.
Celestia then gave Twilight a bear-hug, causing Twilight to gasp for air when Celestia let her go. Twilight and Celestia then sat on the bed, wondering what to do next. Then, out of nowhere, Celestia then said, "You wanna 'mess around'?" Twilight blushed from hearing this, But we just got together, why does she want to have sex? Twilight thought. Twilight then explained that she was hesitant to do this, see what had just happened moments ago, but Celestia gave her another puppy dog face, which Twilight was defeated again by it. Celestia then said, "Hold on though Twilight, let me get into something more...'comfortable.'" She then took off her dress and crown and accessories, leaving her naked body exposed all for Twilight to see. Twilight's mouth dropped, My goodness...those breasts...that hourglass figure.... was all Twilight could think to herself. Celestia chuckled as she seductively walked towards Twilight. She then started to kiss Twilight, but with a more seductive feel. "Now the real fun begins." Celestia said as she began to take Twilight's clothes off. Twilight and Celestia both began tongue-kissing, as they got under the covers. No one but Twilight and Celestia didn't know what they did that night, but it was a night of passion and romance that could be felt all around the city of Canterlot.
The Next Day
Twilight and Celestia were fully asleep after the fun they had the night before. They were both very exhausted and deserved the rest they were given. Twilight then woke up and yawned a loud yawn, but not loud enough to wake Celestia. Twilight then said to herself, "That was the most romantic night I have ever had." after saying this, she turned to see Celestia, happy and smiling. This image of the princess, her love, made her smile and silently chuckle. Twilight then looked at her watch next to her and her eyes widened. "Oh crap!" Twilight said, "I'm 10 minutes late for opening the library!" Just as she about to get out of bed, she completely forgot about Celestia. She didn't want Celestia to think she just got up and left her. So, she conjured a piece of paper and a quill and wrote a note to Celestia. The note read as:
To my lovely Celestia,
Last night was one of the most, if not, THE most, magical moments of my life. I'm sorry I'm not next to you when you wake up, but I have my duties as you know.
Twilight then stopped and realized, Luna and her friends were the only ones who knew of her and Celestia's relationship. If anyone else found out, her and Celestia would be ridiculed and made fun of. Some would even call their relationship as a sign of Equestria's downfall. So, just out of worry, Twilight added to her note:
But I would like to discuss about our relationship. Meet me in the Royal Gardens with Luna at 12:00 this afternoon. I'll be the girl with a bouquet of Golden Lilies, your favorite flowers.
Your love,
Twilight Sparkle
After rolling up the note and placing a single Golden Lily on the pillow, Twilight put back on her clothes and teleported back to the library to not only open it up, but to tell her friends what had transpired the night before. As if on cue, Celestia then woke up as soon as Twilight teleported out. Celestia yawned and said, "Good morning my love, did you enj..." but Celestia was cut short when saw that Twilight was not next to her. Luckily though, she noticed Twilight's note and the Golden Lily on the pillow. When she was finished reading it, she sighed and also knew if anyone knew of their romance, some would panic, but that didn't matter now. Celestia then put the lily in her hair and walked out on her balcony and said, "This is just beginning of a new story Twilight. This is a new chapter, and I hope this story lasts forever." She then walked back into her room and began to prepare for when Twilight will meet her and Luna at noon that day.
"Ah, home sweet home." Twilight said after she returned back to the library. As she was about to open the door, something was bothering her about the night before. I still don't get why Celestia wanted to have sex after contemplating wanting to kill herself? Twilight thought to herself, I guess ask her about that later today. Twilight's head was buzzing with things to say to Celestia when she would meet her in the royal gardens...until her thoughts were stopped by the sight she saw when she entered her home.
Twilight couldn't believe it, but it seemed like her friends were all in relationships she never knew about. Applejack and Rainbow Dash were sleeping together in the guest bedroom, Spike and Rarity were sleeping in Twilight's room, and Fluttershy and surprisingly Big Macintosh sleeping on the sofa. The only one without a lover was Pinkie Pie, who was clearly knocked out on the couch. "Well, it seems I'm not the only one who found love." Twilight said loudly. This caused all of her friends to wake up and look at Twilight awkwardly. "Uh..Uh..Twilight..eh...your home." said Rainbow Dash. Twilight rose an eyebrow to show that she knows they aren't hiding anything from her. "OK Twilight, all of us were hiding the fact we were all in relationships." said Rainbow Dash. Twilight then smiled and said, "Well, how did you all get together?"
Twilight's friends, one by one, started to explain how they all got into the relationships they are in . Rainbow's and Applejack's relationship started sometime after the Running of the Leaves and blossomed after the royal wedding, with them going on dates and spending time privately for the last 6 months. Twilight didn't need to know how Spike and Rarity's relationship started considering Spike has had a crush on Rarity since moving to Ponyville, but she was shocked to learn that Rarity had small feelings for Spike, which had blossomed overnight, literally overnight. The most surprising was Fluttershy and Big Mac. When Twilight asked them how they got together, she thought that Big Mac would be with Cheerilee. Fluttershy then explained that while it seemed like it, Big Mac and Cheerilee stayed friends. She further explained how she and Big Mac fell in love after she helped him take care of a kitten he found out in the outskirts of the Everfree Forest and how they've been spending time alone.
Twilight just stood there and smiled after hearing her friends love stories, but then Pinkie Pie snorted and woke up. "Um....did I miss something?" Pinkie said questionably. This made them all chuckle, but left Pinkie confused until she asks Twilight, "So Twi, how did things go up in Canterlot?" Twilight blushed, which entices her friends to ask what happened last night. Twilight then told them how she was able to save Celestia and, blushing, about the 'fun' they had. Her friends were, as Twilight expected, confused. Applejack then said, "So, the princess, after almost killing herself, decides to screw around with y'all." Twilight replied, "Well, when you put it that way..." Rainbow Dash then said, "That's just really weird Twilight, first Princess Celestia want's to commit suicide, then after you save her life and you two become girlfriends, she want's to get in your pants. This is very questionable." The others began to agree with Rainbow about this. "Well, I left a note for the princess saying I want to talk about our relationship going forward." said Twilight. Rarity replied with "Now that's a good idea Twilight, but why do you want to discuss about it with her?" Twilight sighed and said, "Well, I'm afraid of what will happen if anyone that wasn't you guys and, surprisingly, Princess Luna found out about me and Celestia's romance." "We might get ridiculed or..or I might be banished from Equestria or executed or...." Twilight exclaimed until Pinkie Pie started to shake her and said, "Dang it Twi, get a hold of yourself!" She noticed that Twilight was in tears and calmly says to her, "Look, just because your now in a relationship with someone of the same sex doesn't mean you'll both be ridiculed." The others then all cheered up Twilight and she replied, "Thanks guys, that's really sweet of you all that you support what me and Celestia are going through." Then they all gave Twilight a group hug. Suddenly, Spike burped up a letter from Celestia. Twilight opened it and, while it was short but to the point, it read:
Dear Twilight,
Me and Luna are ready to meet you in the gardens to discuss our relationship going forward.
With Love,
Celestia
Twilight noticed that a couple of hours have gone by since coming home, so Twilight then said goodbye to her friends and said that they should all meet up at Sugarcube Corner when Twilight came back. They all agreed and nodded Twilight goodbye. Twilight then left the library, made a quick stop to the local flower shop and bought a bouquet of Golden Lilies, and teleported straight towards the Royal Canterlot Gardens.
A Couple Minutes Later
"Oh, I hope she didn't forget Luna." Celestia said worryingly as she pacing in a circle, waiting for Twilight to show up. Luna reassuringly said, "Don't worry sister, she be here. Besides, she was the one who planed this out." Celestia sighed and looked at sister saying, "I know..I know, but still, she could..." Before Celestia could finish, a bright light appeared behind them and a voice rang out, "Did you miss me?" Celestia and Luna turned around and saw Twilight had arrived holding a bouquet of Golden Lilies. "Twilight," exclaimed Celestia as she went to give Twilight a hug, "I knew you were going to show up!" Twilight then said, "Oh, I got these for you." and she gave Celestia the bouquet. She gasped and said, "Oh Twilight, these are beautiful!" Twilight giggled and said, "Well, they're not as beautiful as you." Celestia then teared up tears of joy and her and Twilight passionately kissed. But then, they noticed Luna was blushing and smiling at them, so they stopped and remembered why they were all here in the first place.
"Ahem..so Twilight..what was it you wanted to discuss?" Twilight then said, "Well....remember what we did last night....well, I still don't understand." Celestia gave Twilight a confused look and says, "What don't you understand Twilight?" "Well, how come you wanted to...you know....'fool around' after we had just got together, especially after you were in a suicidal state?" Celestia's eyes widened and her mouth went dry. She stammered for a bit before calming down and explains, "Twilight....It's just....oh, I was finally happy to be with you that I couldn't control myself. I wanted to show you how much I love you, but I didn't mean to make it seem like it...it's just..." But before Celestia could finish, Twilight put her finger over Celestia's mouth and said, "Well, maybe we both don't know why, but...I was thinking we could take things slow now." Twilight then noticed that Celestia looked sad as soon as she said she wanted things to go slow, so she then reassured her that they could still cuddle and kiss and this seemed to make Celestia feel a bit better, for she returned this statement with a hug.
Luna, who was getting impatient, asks Twilight, "So, what was the point of me being here?" Twilight and Celestia both broke out of their hug and Twilight sighed and said to Celestia, "I also want to say...that we need to keep our relationship a secret." Luna looked at her sister, (who was nodding in agreement,) and asked why and Twilight replied, "Well, It's just that...well...I'm afraid of what's going to happen if anyone were to find out. I mean, Celestia has never dated or was in love with a lower noble like me, right." "That is true Twilight Sparkle," Luna replied, "my sister has dated countless kings, knights, nobles. Heck, she's even been in love with queens and dames, but not with someone of your social class." Twilight continued, "But if they were to find out, they would...make fun of us...call us a disgrace to Equestrian society." This was when Twilight started to tear up as she continued, "If worse comes to worse, they would...they would...like, exile me or worse." Twilight then cried softly until Celestia hugged her and said, "Shh..shh...it's alright my love, I won't let any of that happen." Luna then put her arm on Twilight's shoulder and said, "I concur with my sister, I will do everything with my power to keep all of this between us and, this is just a guess, your friends." Twilight then looked up and was about to ask how she knew that her friends knew about her's and Celestia's love for each other, to which Luna winked and replied "Like I said, just a guess."
Twilight smiled and gave both royal sisters a hug and Celestia a kiss on the cheek. "Well, I have to go. I said to my friends we would hang out at Sugarcube Corner, but I do have a question for you Celestia." Celestia sweetly replied, "What is it Twilight?" Twilight blushed and said, "Do you want to have a picnic tomorrow?" Celestia smiled and said, "Well of course Twilight, I accept your invitation." Twilight smiled back and said, "So, is 2:00 in the center of the gardens all right with you?" Celestia nodded and Twilight gave her a hug and a kiss in response. Luna, however, interrupted and said, "Sister, you do realize tomorrow is the usual meeting of the Tribunal, this one is suppose to last till 4:00 in the afternoon." Twilight then lowered her head in sadness, but Celestia reassured Twilight that she will be there. Twilight smiled and Luna shook her head while she too was smiling. "You two are going to be the end of me, I guarantee it." said Luna jokingly. They then all had a good laugh and Twilight said goodbye to them and left for Sugarcube Corner.
Later That Night
Twilight was in the shower getting ready for bed when she her knocking at her bathroom door. She got out and open the door revealing to be Spike. "Spike," said Twilight, "I'm kind of busy here, what is it that you need?" Spike then said, "Well, I have this letter from Princess Luna, and this time, it's kind of funny." Twilight smiled while rolling her eyes , put a towel on, and read the letter. It basically said how Luna kept trying to hide the fact her sister was in love and how Celestia almost exposed her's and Twilight's relationship to her guards, so Luna had to injure herself. Twilight laughed as she read it and rolled it up and put it into storage. Once in bed, she kept thing about the fun her and Celestia were going to have tomorrow afternoon, unknown to her, Celestia was also thinking the same thing as Twilight.
To Be Continued in Chapter 7
Chapter 7: You Almost Revealed Our Secret Before Our First Date!
Chapter 7: You Almost Revealed Our Secret Before Our First Date!
The Next Day - The Royal Court
"So, first order of business is to welcome back her majesty, Princess Celestia, from her lengthy absence." said Quill Quibbler as he started the weeks meeting of the Tribunal of Canterlot. "Thank you Lord Quibbler, I'm sorry for being gone for the last few weeks, but I will be at the top of my game from now on." The rest of the Tribunal clapped after Celestia finished speaking. Celestia then sat back down and the Tribunal began their session. As Quill Quibbler was beginning the discussion of how the farmlands were in need of water, Celestia was having a hard time listening. She kept thinking about the picnic her and Twilight were going to have in about 4 hours. Celestia never wanted to admit it, but she found the meetings with the Tribunal to be boring, so she decided to daydream about what her and Twilight were going to do that day;
Celestia and Twilight were sitting underneath a great oak in the gardens, laughing and joking. "Oh Twilight," Celestia said, "I never knew you were such a romantic." Twilight then said, "Well, you knew I would read all of the books about romance."
"Princess?"
Celestia, who was drinking form a wine glass, threw it to the side and her and Twilight started to passionately make out. Celestia stopped and said "Oh Twilight, lets run away from here, and we can get married and have lots and lots of kids!"
"Princess!"
Twilight smiled and replied, "Celestia my love, I was thinking the same thing!" Celestia, with a smile on her face, picked Twilight up bridal style and ran into the sunset with her, to where, they didn't know, as long as it's far away from anyone who could...
"YOUR MAJESTY, DO YOU HEAR ME!"
Celestia then said, "Who, what, when, where...um...what did you say Lord Quibbler?" Celestia must have been far in her daydream and must of ignored what he said. "I said, do you agree that the weather factory in Cloudsdale should give the farmlands more rain for the harvest?" Celestia then looked at her sister, only for her to get a glare that said "Are you being serious?" Celestia then said, "Um...well...I..I guess." She then gave an awkward smile and a small chuckle. The other Nobles gave her an awkward stare and went back and began to debate. Luna, looking annoyed by her sister, stood up and said, "Lord Quibbler, may the Tribunal grand me and my sister an emergency recess, I need to have a word with her." Quill Quibbler then replied, "Yes your highness, we will continue discussions after quick 10 minute recess."
A Couple Minutes Later
"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT ALL ABOUT TIA!" Luna shouted. Celestia tried to explain, but was cut short by her sister when Luna put her hand up in the air. Luna then said, "Look, I know your excited about the yours and Twilight's 'date,' but you have to keep a low-profile about this. You don't want to disappoint Twilight now, do you." Celestia sighed and said, "No Luna, I don't" Luna then put her arm around Celestia and said, "Then lets focus on our duties, then you can focus on Twilight." As they were about to walk back in to the room, Luna then said, "And seriously sister, 'Let's run away Twilight and get married and have lots and lots of babies!' Next time, don't leave your mind open when you daydream." Celestia blushed remembering that Luna can also go into not only other peoples dreams, but their daydreams too.
3 Hours Later - 1:55 PM
Celestia, now getting both bored and anxious, was checking her watch when her face lighted up. It was 5 minutes until she had to meet Twilight in the gardens. After Quill Quibbler was finished his discussion about repainting the faded areas of the castle, Celestia stood up and said, "Lord Quibbler, I wish to be released early from this meeting." Quill Quibbler asked, "I don't mean to question you Princess, but why do you wish to leave early?" Celestia's eyes then dilated and stammered until she said, "Well, me and my student Twilight Sparkle decided yesterday to spend time together considering that me and her haven't seen each other in a while." Quill Quibbler wanted to say something but didn't want to upset the princess, so he said, "Alright your majesty, you can leave early." Celestia then said, "Thank you Lord Quibbler." With that, Celestia teleported to her bedroom and quickly got herself ready to go meet Twilight in the gardens.
Earlier That Day
Twilight got up very early in the morning and the first thing she did was re-read all of the books about dating and read all of the books for same-sex dating. Spike, wearing an apron and holding a frying pan with pancakes on it, walked into the main living room/library to find Twilight looking like as though she was going through her one of her 'crazy' days, what with her hair all messed up and her eyes all dilated. Spike then said, "Uh..Twilight..." "SPIKE! Don't interrupt me while I'm studying!" Spike rolled his eyes and said, "I know...I know...you want this date to be successful and stuff, but come on, have some breakfast or something." Twilight made an annoyed sigh and walked away from her books to eat something, since she has been up for 3 or 4 hours.
4 Hours Later - 1:45 PM
Twilight was in the shower getting ready for the picnic her and Celestia planed to have. "OK Twilight," she thought to herself, "You have to make this the best date Celestia has ever had in the thousands of years shes been alive!" After cleaning herself up, she ran straight to her bedroom, but then realized she was having a hard time picking out clothes to wear. "Ugh! What can I freaking wear!" Twilight said angrily. After a couple of minutes, she found the perfect outfit, mostly fit for a nice Spring afternoon. Twilight then told Spike goodbye, grabbed the picnic basket containing the lunch she had made for her and Celestia, and teleported to the Royal Gardens.
Canterlot Royal Gardens - 2:02 PM
Celestia was waiting outside of the garden entrance pacing in a circle. "Oh, I hope she didn't forget...maybe she's running a little late...yea that's..." But before she could finish, a bright light appeared behind her. Celestia turned around to find her love standing in front of her. "TWILIGHT!" Celestia shouted as she ran to give Twilight a hug. "It's nice to see you too Celestia." Twilight said, losing breath from Celestia's hug. "Oh, sorry...didn't mean to make that hug strong." Celestia said as she let go of Twilight. Twilight then got a good look of the sun princess, and by goodness, she looked beautiful. She was wearing very casual clothing for a princess, but Twilight didn't feel bothered about it one bit. Twilight then said, "So..should we find a good spot." Celestia then said, "I do know of a very shady spot in the center of the garden." Twilight knew that she was talking about the old oak in the center of the garden and agreed with Celestia and they teleported off to the oak tree.
About an Hour Later
Twilight and Celestia were having the best time they both had ever had. They talked about their day, munched on the lunch of ham and rye sandwiches and fries that Twilight had prepared (with a little help from Spike of course.) and just lied underneath the tree together, embraced in each others arms. Celestia then said, "Twilight, dear, I have to ask you something." Twilight, who was laying on Celestia's chest, looked up and said, "What is it Celestia?" "Well," Celestia said, "in the future, if it's OK with you, have you ever wanted to start a family?" Twilight paused and thought about it. A long time ago, she sometimes dreamed about having a family of her own, but because of her wanting to learn and read, those dreams took a backseat in her mind. After much pondering, Twilight answered, "Well, I did dream of having one when I was little, but maybe will see." Twilight then suddenly felt Celestia hug her very gently. Twilight and Celestia then just laid there, wondering what the future might hold for them.
About 2 hours passed, and Twilight had to leave because she had to prepare for her monthly re-shelfing day. Celestia was sad Twilight had to leave, but she knows that Twilight has her scheduled days, and the fact the day they had was one of the most perfect she had in over a millennia. Twilight then said goodbye, gave Celestia a kiss on the check, and teleported back to Ponyville.
Later That Night
Celestia was brushing her hair when a knock was made on the door. "Come in, I'm good." she said. Her bedroom door opened and Luna entered. "So sister, how were things with Twilight today?" said Luna. "Oh Luna, today was one of most amazing days I've had in years!" Celestia said in an enthusiastic tone. Luna then said, "That's good sister, but you need to be careful still." Celestia, going back to brushing her hair, said, "Wait...what do mean be careful? I haven't done anything that almost revealed me and Twilight's courtship besides me daydreaming." Luna raised an eyebrow and said, "You mean you don't remember about what you were doing at dinner after you got back from your date?" Celestia thought about it then remembered how earlier at dinner, when she was talking to her guards, she talked about hers and Twilight's date, but Celestia thought she said to the guards it was a normal picnic, but might of slipped out the fact her and Twilight cuddled. "Thankfully I had the guards go patrol the turrets before you could go further into detail." said Luna.
Celestia then gave Luna a look of worry and said, "Luna, I know it's been a day since Twilight told us to keep this a secret, but I can't take this anymore!" Luna then gave Celestia a hug and said, "Look, I know you want to parade down the streets announcing you and Twilight are in a same-sex relationship, but I think you should wait until she feels like it's time Equestria and the world know of your love for each other. Celestia sniffed and said, "Thank you Luna, that really helps." She then gave her sister a hug and said good night to her. Celestia then turned off her lamp and fell asleep, dreaming about her and Twilight having a happy family.
To Be Continued...in Chapter 8
Chapter 8: Taking Some Downtime (And Some Nightly Romance)
Chapter 8: Taking Some Downtime (And Some Nightly Romance)
2 Months Later
Twilight woke up on a very cool spring morning and realized something. She and Celestia have been secretly dating for 2 months now, and not one person in Ponyville or Canterlot have even suspected something was going on. Twilight, getting out of bed, began to ponder if now would be the perfect time to tell the world that her and Celestia were dating, until Spike called for Twilight to come down for breakfast. Twilight put her thoughts aside and went to get some breakfast.
"Morning Twilight." said Spike in a cheerful tone. Twilight yawned and said morning back. Twilight then asked, "Hey Spike, do you and the girls want to just hang out today?" Spike, who was munching on scrambled eggs, said, "I don't know Twilight, me and Rarity were planing to go out for lunch later, and I heard that Applejack and Rainbow Dash were going to harvest apples and Big Mac was going to help Fluttershy with her animals." Twilight yawned again and replied, "Well, Pinkie Pie is free, since it's obvious shes not in a dating mood right now, if not ever." Spike then asked, "How come you want all of us to just hangout anyway Twi?" "Well, I figured that me and Celly should have a couples hangout, if that makes sense." Spike pondered about it and then chuckled and said, "All right Twi, I'll send a letter to Rarity about changing plans." Twilight then chuckled and went to get ready for the day.
A Few Hours Later
Twilight and Spike were sitting at a table at one of the local restaurants waiting for everyone else to arrive. Earlier that day, Twilight sent a letter to Celestia asking if she wanted to hang out with her and her friends, which luckily she said she would love to, which overjoyed Twilight. "Well they should be here about...." said Spike checking his watch, until the sound of door opening signaled the arrival of their friends. "Girls! Over here!" Twilight exclaimed. They all heard Twilight and went to sit with her and Spike.
"Well howdy Twilight, nice of you to invite us all." said Applejack. Twilight smiled and said, "You're welcome Applejack, so how has your day been everyone?" "Well, I was helping AJ with the harvest until she got a bit rowdy." Rainbow said, nudging Applejack in the ribs with Applejack blushing. Rarity then said, "Well, I've been working on my grandest dress to date!" she then pulled out her sketchpad and said, "BEHOLD! A dress worthy of a princess!" All of them oohed and ahhed at the sketch of Rarity's dress. Celestia then said, "Well Rarity, I wouldn't be surprised if me and Luna got something like your design." Rarity then chuckled nervously and almost fainted until Spike caught her. Twilight then turned to Fluttershy and noticed she was being very quiet. "So, Fluttershy, how was your morning?" Fluttershy, who was looking the window, suddenly heard Twilight and said, "Oh..um..I don't want to talk about it." Twilight then said, "Come on, I know that you and Big Mac were taking care of your animals, but you two did do something else I assume." Fluttershy then said, "Well actually, Big Mac was taking me back to Sweet Apple Acres for lunch, untill....well, Rainbow Dash all ready said it." She then blushed and slid down to the floor in embarrassment.Twilight and the others blushed as well and all started to change the subject.
A Couple Hours Latter - Around 7:00 PM
After lunch and going to the local market, the Mane 5 had to hit the hay, so they thanked Twilight and Spike for the lunch, and they all headed on their way. Celestia decided to stay in Ponyville for the night, to which Twilight was happy to have Celestia stay. After teleporting to the library, Celestia and Twilight decided to relax and read a few books to pass the time. "I tell you Celly, the Book of Arcain Spells sure does have some..." Twilight said before she noticed Celestia writing down something on a sheet of parchment. "Um, Celestia, what ya writing down?" Twilight said questionably. Celestia smiled and said, "I'm writing a note to Luna telling her I'm staying the night here and that I need some clothes for tonight." Twilight smiled and went back to reading her book, until she got an idea, a very 'naughty' idea.
Twilight walked up to Celestia and started to massage her arms, then moved down to her breasts, which made Celestia blush and look up at Twilight. "Twilight, it's a little bit early for..." Celestia tried to say until Twilight pressed her lips upon hers. Celestia and Twilight made out for a solid 3 minutes until Twilight sat on Celestia's lap seductively and said, "You know, I should repay you for giving me a wonderful time when we first got together." Celestia gave Twilight a seductive look and said, "Well, take me to your bedroom and give me a good time." Twilight smiled and picked Celestia up bridal style and carried her to her bedroom.
Twilight locked her bedroom door and put a sound canceling spell on the windows and doors so that no one (I.E. Spike) would bother them. Twilight then walked over to her bed and sat on Celestia's lap and ran her finger down her dress. Celestia, who couldn't wait anymore, kissed Twilight passionately. Twilight then returned the kiss by sliding her tongue into Celestia's mouth. Their tongues wrestled, but none showed dominance. After tongue kissing for a good solid 4 minutes, Twilight unbuttoned her shirt and slowed slid it off, revealing her perfect bust to Celestia.
Celestia looked at the young Magi's chest and started feeling warm. Twilight then said, "Well babe, what are you waiting for?" Celestia knew what Twilight meant and began to lick Twilight's left nipple. Twilight began moaning and rubbing her right breast. Celestia then stopped licking her nipple, which made Twilight said, "What the heck! Why did you stop?" Celestia then said, "Well, lie on your back and you'll find out." Twilight then got off Celestia's lap and laid down on her bed. Celestia smiled seductively and pulled off Twilight's pants and panties and looked at her exposed slit. Celestia then began to move her fingers in a circular motion around Twilight's flower, which made Twilight gasp and whimper. Celestia then said, "Ready for the fun part Twilight." Celestia then slid her tongue and began licking Twilight's clitirous.
Twilight moaned, "Oh...oh Celestia...mmmm." Celestia, knowing Twilight was pleasured, stuck two fingers into her virgin walls. Twilight's eyes widened and started gyrating her hips. "OHHHH! YES! YES! YES!" Twilight gasped as Celestia then opened her clit and began kissing and sucking on it. "Celestia...I..I'm about to....to..." Twilight said until she had an orgasm and came all over Celestia's face. Celestia, licking Twilight's juices off her face said, "Well my love, hows about we skip you eating me out and get to the really fun part."
Twilight seductively smiled and walked over to the sun princess and began taking her clothes off while kissing her deeply. Twilight then looked at the naked princess and smiled and walked back to her bed. Twilight then spread her legs and motioned Celestia over to her. Celestia and Twilight then began kissing and licking their necks. Twilight then said, "I can't do this anymore...let's do it now!" Celestia nodded and placed her pussy on to Twilight's and began humping it. Twilight and Celestia both began to get warm and both started moaning in pleasure. "Oh...oh Twilight...move faster my love...make me cum!" Celestia said in estacy. Twilight then grabbed Celestia and moved her hips faster. Celestia bit her lip and grabbed on to the bedding shouting, "YES...YES...OH TWILIGHT!" Twilight then started rubbing her breasts and moaned louder. "Celestia...I'm....I'm about to cum." Twilight said. "Me two!" Celestia replied. Twilight and Celestia then motioned towards each other and began tongue kissing. Twilight and Celestia moaned loudly as they both cam into each others flowers.
Twilight and Celestia fell on to the bed exhausted. Twilight looked at her lover and said, "That...that was amazing." Celestia replied, "I could say the same for you my dear." Twilight then pulled the vaginal juice covered sheets over them and said, "This was the best night I could have ever had." Celestia smiled and said, "Well, we might as well get some rest." Twilight couldn't agree more and the two began to fall asleep in each others arms. "Goodnight, my beautiful Celestia." Twilight said. "Goodnight, my lovely Twilight." Celestia replied. The two then fell into a deep slumber, embraced in each others arms.
Celestia was already awake on a fine early Summer morning, considering she had to raise the sun, leaning on the balcony outside her bedroom. "Ah," Celestia said to herself, "what a fine Friday morning. I wonder what my sister is up to anyway?" Celestia then teleported to Luna's bedroom, to see she was still asleep. Celestia then made a sly smile and conjured up a glass. She then put hot water in it, and tip toed over to her sister. Just before Celestia could put Luna's hand into the glass, a voice rang out saying, "You seriously think that would work sister." Celestia yelped and noticed Luna was awake. "Dang it Luna, that would have been a good prank!" said Celestia. "Well your going to have to try harder next time Tia." Luna said chuckling. Celestia shook her head smiling and told Luna they should get some breakfast.
After breakfast, Celestia decided that before getting started on her royal duties for the day, she would take a stroll around the royal gardens. Celestia enjoyed walking through them, as it was tranquil and peaceful. Her favorite part though was the maze in the center of the gardens, which she and Luna would run through when they were little, they even sometimes run through it as adults. Yes, nothing could disturb the young Immortal princess, nothing....except a note falling from her head. Celestia looked down and saw a note that was addressed from Twilight. Celestia opened the note and it read:
Dear Celestia,
We've been dating for 6 months now and I think it's about time I tell my family about our relationship. I want to know if you want to have dinner with my parents and me tonight at 7. Let me know very soon.
Your love,
Twilight Sparkle
Celestia thought it over for a while. She knew that eventually she and Twilight had to tell Twilight Velvet and Night Light that their daughter was a lesbian and she and Celestia were dating, but Celestia was kind of nervous about telling them, thinking they would not accept it. But considering Twilight's family has had a history of supporting same-sex relationships and parts of Twilight's family were, in fact,homosexuals, Celestia guessed it would not hurt. So Celestia teleported back to her bedroom and wrote down a letter to Twilight saying she would attend that night. Celestia then left and got ready for her royal duties.
Meanwhile at Golden Oaks Library
Twilight was pacing in a circle waiting for Celestia's reply. She felt that now was a good time to tell her parents about her dating Celestia. Twilight was about to write another letter to Celestia until she Spike came into the living room holding a note from Celestia. Twilight grabbed it from Spike and opened it. "Please be a yes! Please be a yes!" Twilight said as she unraveled the note. Once she read it, Twilight's face glowed with excitement. "YES!!! She said she's coming!" Twilight exclaimed. Spike then scratched his head and said, "Uh, Twilight, should you tell your parents about this." Twilight then stopped and thought about it. She then realized she forgot to tell her parents she was coming up to Canterlot to visit. Twilight then said, "Spike, take a quick note." Twilight then told Spike to write down as follows:
Dear Mom and Dad,
I know it's been a while since I've talked to you, but I got some great news! I've found myself a special someone! I would love for you to meet them. I want to know if tonight is good? Hope to see you soon!
Your daughter,
Twilight Sparkle
Spike then rolled up the letter and used his magic fire-breath and it was whisked away to Twilight's parents house in Canterlot. An hour or two passed before Twilight got a response back. Twilight was relieved and happy that her parents were ecstatic about Twilight dating and that they are also happy to have her and her special someone for dinner at 7 that night. Twilight wrote a quick thank you note, sent it, and got herself ready for later that night.
Later That Night - Canterlot - 6:50 PM
Twilight was waiting outside of Canterlot Castle for Celestia, who was almost finished getting ready. Earlier that day, Celestia had told her court she was going to Twilight's parents house to talk about her studies, knowing fully well she was still keeping hers and Twilight's relationship a secret. As Twilight paced around, a popping noise and a white light appeared behind Twilight. "Well, I'm ready Twi." Celestia said. Twilight hugged her and the two teleported to Twilight's parents house.
When they rematerialized outside of Twilight's parents house, Twilight told Celestia to stay on the porch, for she wanted to tell her parents she was a lesbian and surprise them with her dating Celestia. Twilight knocked on door and it opened, revealing Twilight's parents, Twilight Velvet and Night Light. "Twilight, we are so glad you came. It's been a while, hasn't it?" Velvet said. "Yea," Twilight said, "it has, hasn't it." Night Light then said, "So, wheres the guy that dating my little girl?" Twilight then took a deep breath and said, "Actually Mom and Dad, it not a guy I'm dating, cause you see....you see..I'm.." Twilight then, with all her courage, "I'm a lesbian, and have been for 6 months now." Twilight then noticed her parents giving shocked expressions on their faces. Velvet then spoke up and said, "Twilight...we...we don't know what to say but-" Twilight looked away and said, "I know, I know, I'm a disgrace to our family, aren't I."
Twilight then looked up and saw her parents now had smiles on their faces and gave Twilight a hug. Twilight gave a look of confusion and then said, "Wait..so you're not mad at me?" Night Light then said, "Honey, it doesn't matter if your straight, gay, or bi, what matters now is that you found a person you can share your hopes and dreams with and who will love you no matter what. Why else do you think we support same-sex relationships?" Twilight then hugged her parents back and sighed. Night Light then said, "Anyway, to rephrase my question, wheres the lucky gal who's dating my little girl." Twilight then said, "OK, you can come out now!" Suddenly, Celestia appeared before Twilight's parents and said, "Hello Mrs. Velvet and Mr. Light, it's nice to see you both again!" Twilight's parents, however, were in complete shock. "Our daughter, is dating Princess Celestia," was racing through both their minds. Twilight looked worried and said, "Uh..Mom...Dad....are you alright?" Twilight Velvet then caught back to reality and shook her husband and said, "No, we're fine Twilight, it's just...well...your dating Princess Celestia." Twilight chuckled and said, "Don't worry mom, I know." Night Light then said, "Well, hows about we all go inside, we can't let you two stay out in the dark, now can we." They all chuckled at what Night Light said and they all went inside.
Twilight was happy things were doing well. After they all had a chat about the day, it was time for dinner. Twilight Velvet want to make a good impression for her daughter and Celestia, so she made a dinner with the family's secret recipes. "Well, don't sit there with empty stomachs, dig in everyone!" said Velvet. Of course, Twilight enjoyed her mothers cooking, but Celestia was hesitate at first. Everyone was now looking at her as Celestia took a cut up piece of chicken and began chewing it. Celestia's eyes then widened and she smiled, and began eating at an alarmingly fast rate, so fast in fact that Twilight and her parents couldn't believe it. After she finished, Celestia then said, "That was the best cooking I've had in a thousand years or so!" Twilight gave a worried look until she saw her parents looking pleased that Celestia had enjoyed their cooking.
After they were all finished, Twilight Velvet got up to clean the dishes and Celestia helped her out with them, after she pleaded to help when Velvet said she didn't have to since she was a guest. After the dishes were cleaned, they all decided to relax in the living room. They began talking about Twilight and Celestia's relationship and things were going well, until Velvet brought up something Celestia and Twilight were uncomfortable about. "So Twilight," Velvet said with a smirk, "when will me and your father be given some grandchildren from you two?" Twilight, who was drinking some wine, stopped and almost choked on it and Celestia's eyes widened. Celestia then said, "Um, Mrs. Velvet, it's a little early to be talking about that, is it?" Twilight, coughing, replied, "Agreed 'cough', I think 'cough' that's for another time. 'cough" They all chuckled and decided to change the subject.
After about 2 hours, Twilight realized it was getting late. So she and Celestia said goodbye and that they will visit again soon. Twilight then walked Celestia to one of the secret entrances of the castle and the two shared a deep kiss. "I had a great time tonight Twilight. It's good that your parents know about our little romance." said Celestia. "I agree," said Twilight, "but I'm going to have to tell them to keep our relationship a secret." Celestia chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I'll write to them and tell them to keep our secret." Twilight smiled and her and Celestia kissed once more. "Well, goodnight my sweet princess." said Twilight. Celestia replied, "Goodnight, my lovely Twilight." Twilight began walking off until Celestia stopped her and said, "Oh wait, I almost forgot."
Twilight then said, "Forgot what?" Celestia then said, in a worried voice, "Well, me and Luna every month go and visit our parents and I was wondering if you would like to meet them, considering I know your parents but you don't know mine." Twilight paused and thought it though for a second. She had never known about Celestia and Luna's parents other then old fairy tales about them being the first beings in Equestria. Twilight then said, "Alright, I come with you and Luna to visit your parents." Celestia then gave Twilight a bear-hug and said, "Oh thank you Twilight, I just know they will love you!" Twilight then began to catch her breath and her and Celestia both once again say goodnight to each other and both went to their homes, with the the thought of visiting Celestia and Luna's parents.
To Be Continued....in Chapter 10 (or Chapter 9B, which ever you prefer)
Twilight Sparkle was busy reading a book on ancient ruins when Spike came in to the reading room holding a scroll. "Hey Spike, Whats you got their?" Twilight said. "It's a note from Princess Luna." Spike replied. Twilight gave Spike a confused look and said, "Wait...Luna? I thought she was busy today....well, that's what Celestia told me." Twilight picked the note up from Spikes hands and opened it up. The note read as follows:
To Twilight Sparkle,
I've decided to take a break from my duties at the moment to tell you this. Me and my sister have wrote to our parents telling them that you will arrive with us and they'd be happy to have you over. Besides, Celestia right now is literally jumping off the walls and ceilings as I'm writing this. As such, we insist that you prepare to leave on Saturday around 10:00 AM. Celestia will arrange a carriage for you to be picked up in.
With regards,
Princess Luna
Twilight gave a warm smile knowing she was going to meet Celestia and Luna's parents. But then, I singe of fear overcame her. She thought to herself, "Oh man, what am I gonna do? How should I talk to someone like the parents of Celestia and Luna?" Suddenly, she started to shake uncontrollably until she noticed Spike was shaking her back to reality. "Twilight, you OK?" Spike said after he stopped shaking Twilight. "Sorry Spike, but...I just realized the fear of just, you know, starting a discussion with the freaking parents of Celestia and Luna." Spike then said, "Twilight, calm down! Look, take it from me....well....just don't panic about it. Celestia didn't panic about meeting your parents, right?" "Yea, but she's met my parents before. Her parents were, according to Equestrian legends, the first beings ever to exist in Equestria! How can my parents compare to them!" Twilight then sat down on the couch and sighed. Spike then sat next to her and said, "Look, just don't get worked up about it. I'm sure things will go fine. You can't let Celestia down, can you." Twilight then smiled and said, "No, I can't. I love her and if she thinks her parents will like me, I can take her word for it."
2 Days Later - Golden Oaks Library
Twilight got up real early on Saturday and prepared for the carriage to arrive for her. Twilight spend most of the day reading until a knock came upon her door. Opening it, Twilight saw that Celestia's royal guards were waiting for her, so Twilight grabbed her bags and got into the carriage and it flew her to Canterlot.
Canterlot Castle
Celestia and Luna were waiting outside of the castle's entrance waiting for Twilight to arrive. Celestia was walking in a circle while Luna was standing patiently. "Oh, why hasn't the carriage arrived yet?" Celestia said worryingly. "Maybe I should go and check the skies, just to make sure that..." Before Celestia could finish, she heard a thud and she smiled gleefully.
Twilight was getting out of the carriage when she was suddenly glomped on by Celestia. "TWILIGHT! I'm so glad you've arrived!" Celestia said as she gave Twilight a hug. "That good Celestia, but...." Twilight said as she pointed at the confused guards. Celestia noticed them and stopped hug Twilight at once, and dusted herself off and said, "Thank you gentlemen for bringing Twilight here safely." The guards both nodded and bowed before Celestia and rode away in the carriage. Twilight then turned to the princesses of the sun and moon and said, "So, how are we getting to your parents place? A magic spell or are we teleporting there?" Celestia then said, "Well, you could say that, just follow me and Luna Twilight." Twilight nodded and followed the princesses into the castle.
After walking though the castle, they stopped at a locked door. Twilight was confused until Celestia and Luna put their hands to the door and it glowed with a light-blue aura and it opened by itself. Inside was a panel and ancient text and ruins on the walls and floors. Twilight then said, "Um...what's with the panel on the floor?" Luna then replied, "This is no ordinary panel Twilight Sparkle. It is a gateway that allows anyone of great magical talents to enter the afterlife and....." But before Luna could finish explaining, Twilight's eyes then dilated and she said," THE AFTERLIFE! You mean your parents are dead! Why didn't you two tell me?" Celestia then put her hands on Twilight's shoulders, chuckled lightly and said, "Twilight, are parents aren't dead. They simply now rule the afterlife and live their as they have been since they were chosen to by...well...you'll know soon." Twilight, confused but relieved, nodded and walked with Celestia and Luna to the panel.
Celestia then tells Twilight to take her's and Luna's hands and tells her to close her eyes. Twilight obeys and did what Celestia told her to do. Celestia and Luna then start to chant in ancient tongues that Twilight, reading everything about dead languages, couldn't make out of what they were saying. Then, Twilight started to feel the ground starting to shake. Hesitant at first, Twilight then opened her eyes and noticed that the panel was lighting up and a beam of light appeared from the open dome above them. Suddenly, Celestia and Luna opened their eyes and they were glowing in the same aura as the panel. Then, without warning, they flew up into the sky at speeds Twilight couldn't comprehend. Because of this, Twilight started to get dizzy and, as if instantly, she passed out, darkness now in her vision.
It felt like hours...no weeks...was it weeks, or was it days? Twilight couldn't tell, all she could feel was the ground...but it felt soft...soft like a cloud. Twilight then opened her eyes to find she was laying on a cloud. Twilight then got up and checked her surroundings. She appeared to be in the sky, but it defiantly wasn't a Aviator city. She was looking around until she saw a giant golden gate. Twilight had to pinch herself to make sure she wasn't dreaming. Then, a voice cried out saying, "About time you woke up Twilight!" Twilight turned around and saw Celestia and Luna walking up to her. Celestia then said, "So, are you ready to see what's inside." All Twilight could do was just nod as Celestia and Luna opened the gate and a blinding light came from behind it. As the light faded, Twilight stood their, her mouth agape as Celestia said, "Welcome Twilight...to paradise."
Twilight couldn't believe her eyes. As she walked passed the gates, she got a good look at what appeared to be a city that looked like Canterlot...only 10x bigger, grander and, for a lack of a better term, cleaner. As she, Celestia, and Luna walk through the city, she noticed different kinds of people roaming the 'streets.' There were Vegans, Aviators and Magi walking and talking as though things were normal. It may have been her, but Twilight thought she also saw some Immortals in white togas talking to each other. Celestia then poked Twilight on the shoulder and said, "Ah, our parents humble abode." Twilight then noticed a castle that look liked Canterlot Castle, but bigger than anything she had ever seen. Twilight wanted to say something but decided to continue to follow Celestia and Luna.
As they made it up to the castle, Twilight admired the castles architecture and construction, however, she was not watching were she was going and bumped into something. She rubbed her head and looked up, only to back away. She didn't know what she was looking at, but it looked like an organic creature, but was very machine like. It started to talk to her in a strange language. It wasn't until Celestia walked up to it and said, "Whoa! Whoa! Kronoz, this is Twilight Sparkle, a friend of ours." The creature called Kronoz then said, "Twilight...Sparkle? Oh! Twilight Sparkle!" It then began to speak in the unknown language to Celestia and she spoke to it in the same language as well. Celestia then said, "Twilight, this is Kronoz, general of the royal guards here in the afterlife. He says he's sorry about scaring you." Kronoz nodded and motioned them into the castle.
As they entered the castle, Twilight was at a loss for words. Celestia and Luna's parents castle was even grander and amazing and not to mention huge compared to Canterlot Castle, but it had a mix of the Romane architecture with a futuristic motif. Twilight also noticed all of the guards were the same creature as Kronoz, but all of the servants and maids were normal people, with the exception of the halos, white wings and togas. Suddenly, Twilight, Celestia, and Luna find themselves in front of two humongous doors, which Celestia said was the entrance to the throne room. As the doors open, Twilight got a glimpse of the throne room, which looked like the throne room in Canterlot Castle, but with the Romane/futuristic hybrid style the rest of the castle has.
"MOM! DAD! We're here!" Celestia shouted. Twilight then just noticed the two people siting on their thrones getting up and walking towards them. Celestia and Luna then hugged their parents and began talking to one another. Celestia then remembered Twilight was there and sad, "Um..Mom...Dad...this is Twilight Sparkle...my...'student.' Twilight, these are me and Luna's parents, Queen Lumina and King Galaxior." Twilight stammered a hello to them and bowed to them considering they are royalty. Lumina and Galaxior looked at each other and then looked back at Twilight, who was now giving a worried look, thinking they aren't approving of her presence. That is until Lumina and Galaxior started to chuckle and Lumina then said, "Oh Twilight, you don't have to be so formal....now that your dating our little sunshine." Twilight and Celestia's mouths went agape and they both looked at each other and looked back at the god-like Immortals. "Wait," Twilight said confusingly, "You knew I was dating Celestia? B-b-but how could...oh...yea you guys are....OK." Galaxior then said, "Well, we can't let you girls stand here, how about something to eat." All of them agreed and Lumina and Galaxior summoned one of the chiefs and told him to cook them dinner.
Just like when Celestia met Twilight's parents, things were going great, if not perfect. While the chiefs were preparing for dinner, everyone decided to talk about each other. "So your majesties..." Twilight said until Lumina put her hand up and said, "Please Twilight, like I said, don't be formal to us, just call us Lumina and Galaxior." Twilight's face turned red and she corrected herself, "Sorry, so Lumina, how is it for you and your husband to watch over all of these people." Lumina then said, "Well, it's pretty easy once you think about it. I mean..we are all immortal up hear in the afterlife, so..." Suddenly, a group of trumpets played and all of the guards stood away from the doors. Celestia and Luna gasped and Celestia said, "Oh boy, she's finally here!" Twilight was confused until the doors opened. A bright light illuminated the room and soon faded. Twilight's eyes dilated and she gasped. One of the servants then came into the room and announced the woman's presence. "Here ye! Here ye! Presenting, our beloved creator...the one who gave all of us life and made the afterlife our home...Queen Faust!" Celestia and Luna then walked up to her and gave her a hug. Celestia then said, "It's good to see you again...grandmother." Twilight then thought to herself,"Grandmother...then that would mean..." "Yes Twilight, she is our mother in a sense." Lumina explained.
Twilight was still in awe that she was looking at the creator of all life herself. Queen Faust then said, "It is always nice to see you two when ever you two visit." Queen Faust then look up and saw Twilight and said, "Well, well...if it isn't Twilight Sparkle." Twilight then stood up and just watched as she walked towards her. "My granddaughters say you have a great magical talent." Twilight was frozen in place. She didn't know whether to bow or...something. So Twilight got on the floor and groveled. Queen Faust then gave a face of annoyance and said, "Oh Twilight, you don't have to grovel. Besides, one of the things I can't stand is people groveling." Twilight then stopped, got up from the floor and blushed as she said, "Heheheh...sorry your majesty...uh I mean your grace...I mean your lordship...I mean.." Queen Faust then put her hand on Twilight's shoulder and said with a smile," You also don't have to apologize." Then she gave another face of annoyance and said, "Besides, everytime I try to talk to someone on Equis is sorry this and forgive me that and (as she waved her hands around) 'I am not worthy." Queen Faust then looked back down and noticed Twilight was covering her eyes, which she then said, "OK, what are you doing now." Twilight then said, "Well, I'm averting my eyes from you." Celestia, Luna, Lumina and Galaxior all gave a chuckle until Queen Faust put her hand up. She then took Twilight's hands of her eyes and said, "Well you don't have to that, it's like some of those miscible poems people down on Equis write about me, they are just so depressing. So please stop doing it Twilight." Twilight blushed and nodded her head in agreement. Queen Faust then said, "Good..it's nice to know Celestia found a girl who listens to her elders." Twilight was not even surprised that Queen Faust knew her and Celestia were dating, considering she is the creator of all life, so she would know and see everything. Lumina then interrupted them and said, "Well everyone, dinner is ready!"
About an hour later
Celestia was happy things were going perfectly. Twilight enjoyed the food the royal cooks prepared for them. Celestia and Luna's parents thought Twilight was a smart and intelligent girl worthy to date Celestia. Even Queen Faust thought Twilight was a blast and gave Twilight her blessing to date Celestia, only to prank Twilight by placing a whoopee cushion on her seat. Lumina then said with a sly smile, "So Twilight, are you going to tell us when the wedding is?" Twilight and Celestia both blushed and Celestia said, "MOM! We've only been dating for almost a year now, I think we need to wait a little bit longer before we can make that kind of commitment." Twilight then said, "I agree, besides, nobody in Equestria knows me and Celestia are dating, so...yea." The god-Immortals all chuckled and Lumina said she was only kidding. Twilight and Celestia both gave a collective sigh of relief and they all continued to eat dinner and talk.
After dinner and a quick drink of wine, Twilight, Celestia, and Luna had to head back to Canterlot. So they said good bye to everyone and tell them they are always welcome back anytime, especially to Twilight. So, Celestia and Luna used the spell that took them all to the afterlife and left for Canterlot.
Canterlot Castle
Twilight was still pretty dizzy but kept her balance after they returned to the teleporting room in Canterlot Castle. Twilight then said, "Boy, your folks are pretty cool girls." Celestia then said, "That sweet of you to say Twilight." Twilight blushed and her and Celestia both kissed each other passionately, which made Luna feel awkward. Suddenly, a noise was heard from the outside and Twilight and Celestia both stopped kissing. Twilight then said, "I guess that's my cue to leave. Goodnight girls, and thanks for inviting me to your parents place." Celestia and Luna both thanked Twilight for coming and with that, Twilight teleported back to Ponyville. Celestia and Luna both stood their knowing that things can only get better going further.
Twilight woke up on cool August morning to find Celestia sleeping next to her. They had dinner together the night before and things got a little 'steamy' to say the least. Wanting to not wake her love up, Twilight quietly left the bed and went into the bathroom to take a shower and start her day. As Twilight was cleaning herself, she thought long and hard about something that was on her mind for a while now.
She and Celestia have now been dating for a whole year. In fact in a couple of weeks would be their first anniversary since they started dating. But the young Magi has been bothered by the fact that, no mater how secretive she and Celestia have kept their relationship, it won't be long before people start to really notice something was going on between the two of them. "Maybe it's time for me and Celestia to reveal our little secret." Twilight told herself. Suddenly, she heard a yawn coming from her bedroom. Twilight chuckled and said, "Seems like the sleeping princess is awake."
Twilight, after finishing her shower and drying herself off, walked back into the bedroom to greet Celestia. "Morning Tia." Twilight said while looking for clothes to wear. "Good morning Twilight. Had a nice sleep?" Celestia said as she got out of bed. Twilight turned around and said, "It's always a good night sleep when I'm with you Celestia." Celestia snickered and kissed Twilight on the cheek. "So, what do you want to do today Twi?" Celestia said as she began to put her clothes back on. Twilight then looked away and said, "Well...actually Celestia...there's something I want to talk to you about." Celestia then looked at Twilight with a look of worry and said, "W-What do you mean?" Twilight then said, "Well...you & I have gotten through a lot of close shaves with keeping our relationship a secret...and it wont be long before people find out about our love-life and well..." "You want to tell the world our little secret." Celestia said now giving Twilight a smile and her left brow raised. Twilight smiled back and she gave Celestia a hug. "I just hope the world will accept our love." Twilight said with a concerned tone. "Well, everyone here in Ponyville is alright with Applejack and Rainbow Dash's relationship, so why not us." Twilight looked at the Immortal princess and gave her another hug and a kiss on the lips. "Well, I think we should have breakfast first." said Twilight. Celestia agreed and the two lovers walked down to the kitchen to have breakfast.
2 Weeks Later
All of Equestria was in a buzz recently. First, there was the huge announcement Princess Celestia announced she had to share to all her subjects and to Equestria's allies. Second, was how Celestia was acting in the presence of her guards and servants, like as though she was very nervous and worried about something, and every time someone would ask Celestia if she was alright, Princess Luna would tell them things were alright and send them on their way. On the night before Celestia would make her announcement, she walked out on to her balcony and looked over the city of Canterlot, but with a sense of doubt and worry. "I hope everyone will accept me and Twilight's love for each other." she said to herself. Just then, a loud knock came from door, prompting Celestia to tell the person on the other side to enter. Princess Luna enter her sister's room and said, "How are you feeling Tia?" Celestia replied, "Fine, just nervous, that's all...and afraid...and worried...and a whole lot of emotions going through me right now." Luna then walked towards her sister and said, "Well, it's all right to be afraid about tomorrow, but if you two face any opposition, I will have you and Twilight's backs." Celestia turned to her sister and said, "Thank you Luna, you've helped me and Twilight a lot the past few months." Luna then said, "Hey, what are sisters for. Besides, I just you and Twilight to be happy." Celestia then gave Luna a hug and said, "Well, it's time for bed for both of us." "I concur," Luna replied, "Well, pleasant dreams dear sister, and like I said, don't worry about tomorrow." Celestia then replied, "I'll try not to, and good night to you to little sister." After Luna left to go to bed and begin her dreamwalking, Celestia put on a nightgown, turned off her lights, and drifted off to sleep, only thinking about her dearest Twilight and what the future will hold for the two of them.
The Next Day - Around 11:55 AM
Celestia was in her bedroom, brushing her hair in preparation of the announcement she would give to her subjects. As she was finishing up, a popping noise broke the silence, causing Celestia to turn and see who had teleported into her room. Celestia then gave a sigh of relief to know it was Twilight who teleported in. "Oh..Twilight, you made me jump for a second." Celestia said. Twilight blushed and said, "Sorry, I just came over her to see if you needed company." Celestia replied, "Well, I'm glad you came by, my legs are shaking like crazy." Twilight then gave Celestia a light hug and said, "Well, I'm a bit scared to, but I'm sure people will be fine with our relationship." Celestia sigh and said, "Let's just hope so Twi." Suddenly, the sound of trumpets broke the silence. "Well, that's my cue. I'll see in you in a sec." Celestia said as she teleported down to the gardens.
Celestia stepped through the back gates to a sea of reporters and journalists, wanting to be the first to report the sun princesses announcement. Celestia breathed in and walked out to a podium set up for her. Celestia then cleared her throat and says, "Good morning my subjects. As you all know, I have an announcement to make today that was very personal to me, but now is the time I shared it with you all." The press then began to ask questions to Celestia, but she rose her hand up and they all went silent again. "I know you all want to know what I wish to tell you, but first, I want to be honest here." The press all had confused looks, but continued to listen to the princess. "As you all know, through out history, I have dated or courted with some of Equestria's most famous political figures and war heroes." The crowd all nodded in agreement because this was public knowledge. "But what you didn't know.....is that I have courted with famous female figures." Celestia said after taking another breath. The crowd then gasps at this revelation. Their princess...was bisexual, and kept it a secret for over a thousand years, if not, even longer. But just before the crowd could ask more questions, Celestia raised her hand again and all went silent once more. "Yes, I know I've kept this all from you, but it was a different time, and such relationships were considered...unlawful. But that is not what I want to talk to all of you about."
The crowd once again became silent as Celestia breathed in once again. "Citizens of Equestria, I would like to announce that I'm once again in a relationship with one of my female subjects, and it's one I have personally known since she was young." Celestia then turned around and motioned her hand to someone in the shadows. The crowd gasped as it's revealed to them to be Twilight Sparkle. Everyone was just agape when Twilight walked out to the podium. "B-B-But, she is Celestia's student. She's a commoner, a low-noble." Even the guards standing next to Celestia were flabbergasted to know their princess was dating her personal student. Twilight then got up on the podium and said, "Yes, it's true, me and the princess are dating, and have been dating in secret for almost a year now, and it was our decision to reveal this to you all. We just hope you all accept this news in time, but if you do have any questions, ask now." Celestia and Twilight then got worried looks on their faces, thinking that they will be berated by the crowd. But just as they were about leave, the crowd began to run up to the Immortal princess and Magi.....asking them VERY positive questions like "When did you start dating?" and "Are you planing to get married?" Celestia and Twilight sighed a breath of relief. As they begin to walk back into the castle, they begin to get bombarded with reporters questions and photographers wanting pictures of the now public couple. "Well," Twilight said, "they're taking thing good. At least no one finds our relationship outrageous."
"THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!"
A yell flung across the room the Tribunal of Canterlot, which enticed the rest of the court to agree in anger and disbelief...except for Princess Luna. After Twilight and Celestia announced they were in a relationship, all the members of the Tribunal (sans Celestia) were told to summon in order to figure out how to deal with the news. As Luna could tell, they weren't taking it well at all. "In all my years on the Tribunal, I've never heard anything more ridiculous than Princess Celestia dating her student! It's just....unethical!" Quill Quibbler said in a fit of rage. The other members of the Tribunal then started shouting in agreement. Luna, now getting angered about all of this, stood up and said, "OK, that is enough! I don't even know why this is a big deal Lord Quibbler! There is nothing wrong with my sister dating another girl!" Quill Quibbler stared at Luna and said with a hint of anger, "Nothing wrong! NOTHING WRONG! There is a lot wrong with this your highness! Princess Celestia has kept a secret from her subjects for over a millennia, if not longer, and now she's courting with her student, who's family are lower nobles. I bet she now has plans to boot all of us out of power!" Luna stood there, shocked and angered, not believing what she was hearing. She breathed in and said, "My sister is not planing some coup just because she's dating her student. I think you are all just becoming paranoid and are afraid of noth-." Quill Quibbler had now lost his patience and shouted, "I ORDER YOU TO SILENCE YOUR TONGUE, PRINCESS! YOU ARE OUT OF LINE AND NO LONGER HAVE ANY SAY IN THIS MATTER!" Luna gasped at what Quill said and stood their, even more shocked than before.
"Now, if no one has anything else stupid to say, let's get down to business." Quill Quibbler said in a more, but still angry, tone. Luna sat back down, now with a hint of rage coming on her face. "First, I think we should try and have Princess Celestia removed from power. Clearly, if she keeps secrets from us, she is not fit to rule a kingdom." The rest of the Tribunal agreed, which made Luna get angrier. "Secondly, we should have miss Twilight Sparkle deported out of Equestria, so she won't spread her....views on anyone else." This made Luna's blood boil, but it was the last decree Quill made that made Luna realize enough was enough. "Finally, we should have same-sex relationships banned in Equestria! We can't let those wastes of space ruin our fair nation aft-." "ENOUGH!" Luna shouted. "Princess Luna, I told you to hold your..." Quill Quibbler said until a blast of magic engulfed the room, launching the entire Tribunal across it. When the light faded, the Tribunal looked up at where Luna was standing and saw not the princess of the night but, "N-N-N-Nightmare Moon!" one of the members said. The entire Tribunal backed away from the Mare on the Moon and quivered in fear. Nightmare Moon looked down at the frighted nobles and said in the Royal Canterlot Voice, "WE HAVE BEEN ANGERED BY YOUR PROPOSALS AND WE WISH THAT THEY DO NOT COME TO PASS! YOU TREAT OUR SISTER WITH DISGUST AND THINK SHE HAS A DISEASE OR AN ILLNESS! YES, SHE LIED TO YOU ALL, BUT THIS IS A NEW TIME AND A NEW AGE OF THINKING AND UNDERSTANDING! SO STOP WITH THIS OLD WORLD THINKING AND ACCEPT OUR SISTER'S CHOICE! DO WE MAKE OURSELVES PERFECTLY CLEAR!" All the members of the Tribunal shook their heads in agreement. Nightmare Moon smirked and turned back into Luna, who then said, "Well, I'm glad we came to an agreement. On one condition, that you respect my sister and Twilight's relationship and don't bad mouth it, understood." The Tribunal all nodded in agreement. "Good, because," Luna said with a hint of rising anger, "If I hear that any of you say anything rude about my sister or Twilight, AND YOU UPSET THEM! WE SHALL HAVE YOUR HANDS, FEET, AND TONGUE CUT OFF, AND MELDED OVER THE ROYAL FIREPLACE!" The Tribunal then all screamed in horror at the prospect of their hands, feet, and tongues being cut off. Quill Quibbler then said, in a panicked tone, "Yes! Yes Princess! We'll do what ever you say! Just don't cut our hands, feet, and tongues off!" Luna then smiled happily and said, "Good. Well, I guess this meeting is adjourned! I'm going to eat some lunch." She then walked out of the room, leaving the terrified nobles alone.
A Week Later
Twilight and Celestia couldn't get away from the press while out in public. Every time they try to take a stroll down the streets of Canterlot, someone with a camera would pop asking for pictures, only to be stopped by the royal guards. Sometimes, they would be bombarded with questions by reporters. The only place where they can get some peace and quiet was the library. Twilight was currently reading a book when a voice called out, "Well Twilight, what do you think." Twilight looked up from her book and was amazed. Celestia was wearing a red dress that ended at the knees with earrings shaped like the sun and a necklace with a gem shaped like Celestia's cutie mark. Celestia giggled and said, "Well, I guess this is what I'm wearing tomorrow night then." Twilight smiled and said, "Well, I'm keeping my outfit secret from you till tomorrow then." Celestia then said, "AWWW! Come on Twi, just one look." Twilight shook her head and said, "Nope, not until tomorrow." Celestia then glomped on Twilight, kissed her on the lips and said, "You are such a tease Twilight." Twilight then looked at her watch and said, "Well, I guess it's time for bed." Celestia then got off of Twilight, said goodnight to her, and teleported back to Canterlot. Twilight then cleaned herself up and got ready for bed. "Tomorrow is a big day for the both of us Celestia." Twilight thought to herself. She then got under her covers and fell into a deep sleep, thinking about the next day.
To be continued...in Chapter 12
Chapter 12: Some Time Has Passed....Time to Date, with Some Chaos!
Chapter 12: Some Time Has Passed...Time to Date, with Some Chaos!
After revealing their secret, Celestia and Twilight's relationship became the talk of the town. Newspaper and gossip magazines have been hounding them down for questions and paparazzi taking pictures of them when ever they go out in public. But not even the press can bother Celestia and Twilight, especially what with happened the past year. First, the Crystal Empire returned and so did it's evil ruler, King Sombra. Celestia was hesitant to let Twilight go, but allowed it. While it took three days, Celestia got really worried, but felt relieved when Twilight came back safe and was glad that the Crystal Empire was safe as well.
A couple months later, on the anniversary of Luna's return and the 1001th Sun Summer Celebration, the Everfree forest became wild and kidnapped Celestia and Luna. While Twilight wanted to incinerate the forest to find the princesses when she heard about this, until, after drinking a potion made by Zecora, she and her friends learned that these vines were coming from the Tree of Harmony. So Twilight and her friends had to give up the Elements of Harmony to save the Tree and restore the Everfree to normal, while also freeing Celestia and Luna. It was then revealed that Discord, who was 'reformed' about 3 weeks earlier, had planted the seeds for the Plunder Vines a 1000 years ago when he was turned to stone. Let's just say Fluttershy and Big Mac gave Discord a stern talking to.
Things got a bit better after that...until a few months later. News spread of the fallen prince named Tirek who had escaped from his prison in Tartarus and was absorbing magic to grow in strength. While Twilight wanted to go after Tirek, Celestia, not only thinking Twilight wasn't ready but also to keep her safe, decided to send Discord to capture him. However, Tirek managed to have Discord join his side and he was able to steal all of the magic in Equestria. After hearing about this, Celestia, Luna, and Cadence decide to give Twilight all of their magic to make sure Tirek doesn't steal it. Unfortunately, the plan failed because a couple of hours afterward, Tirek, after banishing the princesses to Tartarus, managed to find Twilight after Discord told Tirek where she was. After evading Tirek, Twilight managed to escape back to the library, but sadly, it was destroyed by Tirek. Twilight, now angry, confronted Tirek and the two battled until they reached a stalemate. Twilight then, regrettably, gave up her magic to save her friends and Discord after Tirek offered there freedom for her magic.
Discord then revealed how Tirek betrayed him by offering up something more than friendship, and gave Twilight the token Tirek gave Discord. Twilight and the others then returned to the Tree of Harmony and went to the box that appeared a few months after saving it and unlocked it and the box gave the Mane Six Rainbow Power and used it to re-imprison Tirek back to Tartarus, free the princesses, and rebuild Golden Oaks Library into a much grander and castle-like tree-house. After all the Mane Six and their friends celebrated, Celestia walked up to Twilight and apologized for almost getting her killed because of her plan. But Twilight laughed and said it was fine, but said to Celestia the next time she stays with Twilight for the night, she would be sleeping on the couch. Celestia and Twilight laughed and went back to join in on the celebrations.
2 Months Later
Twilight came back home exhausted after a long day of helping Pinkie Pie with baking cupcakes for Mayor Mare's birthday and slumped on to the couch. "UGHHHHH!" Twilight moaned, "Why did the mayor need 3000 cupcakes? 3000 CUPCAKES!" Spike then came into the room holding a scroll and said, "Hey Twilight, sorry to intrude but Celestia sent you this letter. Twilight then looked at Spike, who handed the letter to her, and Twilight began to read the letter which said:
My Dearest Twilight,
I know you have been very busy since the whole Tirek incident, but I still want to make it up to you. How about a nice dinner at the finest restaurant in Canterlot, all on me. Reply soon if you can.
Your love,
Celestia
Twilight chuckled to herself and went and got out a piece of parchment and a quill and wrote a response back saying she would love to. After Spike sent the letter, Twilight sat back down on the couch and Spike sat next to her. "So Spike, how was your day?" Twilight said to Spike. "It was fine. Me and Rarity are going down to the lake for a picnic later though." Spike replied. Twilight merely chuckled and her and Spike began to talk about other things, until Twilight decided to reorganize the house's library, much to Spike's annoyance.
2 Hours Later
Twilight was sitting in the living room reading a book about how to turn rocks into metals when a knock came from her door. Twilight looked up and got off the couch and went to open the door. When Twilight opened the door, their appeared to be no one there, until a bucket fell on Twilight's head and she became drenched in....chocolate milk, and only one person would set such a trap. "DISCORD!" Twilight shouted until a popping noise came from behind her. The person that made the noise was the Spirit of Chaos, Discord, who clearly set the prank up to get Twilight's attention. "Oh Twilight Sparkle, good to see you my friend!" Discord exclaimed as he proceeded to give Twilight a bearhug. Twilight was able to teleport out of Discord's arms and say, "Can you please explain why you drenched me in chocolate milk!" Discord chuckled and said, "Well, if you must know, I'm kind of bored at the minute and I need something to keep me occupied." Twilight then said, "Well, why don't you go hang out with Fluttershy, I don't think she's doing anything important." Discord then gave a scowl and said, "I wish, besides I was just over to her cottage to see if she wanted to have tea, until I heard her scream come from upstairs. So, being a good friend, I ran up to her room and battered down the door, until.....well.....let's just say...Big Mac was there...and...well..." Discord then proceeded to conjure up a trash can and proceeded to barf into it. Twilight clearly knew what was going on. Discord clearly walk in on Fluttershy and Big Mac and he was promptly kicked out of Fluttershy's cottage and told to come back at a more decent time.
After Discord finished barfing, he made the trash can disappear and apperated a couch for him to sit in. Twilight chuckled a bit at the thought of Discord walking in on Fluttershy and Big Mac, until she noticed that Discord was giving her a scowl, so she blushed and smiled. Suddenly, a note appeared and Twilight grabbed. It was a letter from Celestia saying that she will pick her up around 8 p.m. tonight. Twilight smiled warmly until her note disappeared and Twilight looked to see Discord had it. Twilight then yelled, "DISCORD! You give that back right now!" But Discord wouldn't give it back, as then he said, "Well well, I forgot that you and Celestia came out and said you two were an item." Discord then snapped his fingers and he was now wearing a press outfit and said, "OOH! OOH! Twilight! Twilight! Twilight, is it true that Celestia wears a wig. Is it also true you and Celestia secretly got married and are afraid to tell anyone!" Twilight then gave Discord a scowl herself and Discord poofed back his old clothes and said, "Oh come on, I thought you'd be used to stuff like that. Phish, media hater." Twilight then faceplamed and said, "Look Discord, I don't want any of your antics today, besides, I need to get ready now so, goodbye!" as Twilight went back into her house, leaving an annoyed...but scheming Discord, who was floating way twirling his fingers, smirking.
Later That Night - 8 PM
Twilight sat in her living room, waiting for Celestia to arrive. Twilight decided to wear a purple dress-shirt and a black skirt, simple, but gave a sense of importance. She also styled her hair in to a bun, thinking it would look cute, mostly for Celestia. When she heard the door bell rang, Twilight got up, straightened her skirt, checked her breath (which was fine,) and went to open the door. After she opened it, Twilight's jaw dropped as she got a look at Celestia. She was wearing a white, strap-less dress, and her hair was styled to cover her right eye. Celestia giggled as she noticed Twilight's reaction. Twilight shooked her head and said, "Y-You look b-beautiful, Tia." "Your not bad looking yourself Twilight." Celestia replied. They both giggled and they enter the carriage as it took them to Canterlot.
Later in Canterlot
Twilight and Celestia entered Canterlot after a couple of minutes and both left it. After they thanked the guards for take them, Twilight put Celestia's arm around hers and they entered the restaurant. The restaurant, called the Golden Horseshoe, was one of the most fancy restaurants in all of Canterlot, making it the perfect place for Twilight and Celestia to go out to. As they entered the restaurant, they were greeted by the owner, Silver Dollar, who noticed them and said, "My my, Princess Celestia, nice to see you here, I'm guessing your out on a little...date, shall we say, hmm?" Celestia smiled and said, "Yep!" Silver Dollar then asked Celestia if she had a reservation, to which she said she did, and her and Twilight were escorted to an open table. "Madams, your waiter will be here shortly to take your orders." Silver Dollar said as he gave Celestia and Twilight their menus, bowed to them and walked off. Twilight then looked at Celestia and said, "Wow! When you said fancy, you meant it." "Well, like I said, I wanted to make it up to you after the whole Tirek incident, so...here we are." Celestia replied.
Twilight and Celestia then grabbed their menus and looked to see what the restaurant had to offer, this caused them to not see the bright flash that appeared before them. Twilight then noticed the flash and said to Celestia, "Huh, I guess our waiter wanted to have a grand entrance." "I guess so, have you decided what you wanted to drink?" Celestia said back. "Well, there's a lot of choices, but, I've already decided." Twilight replied. As they put down their menus, there eyes dilated and their mouths stood agape as they saw that their waiter was..."DISCORD!" both said in unison. Standing before them was the "former" Lord of Chaos himself, dressed in a tux and wearing a false mustache. "Yes! It's me, for I will be your waiter tonight!" Discord said in a gleeful tone. Celestia chuckled nervelessly while Twilight gave Discord and annoyed glare. Twilight then grabbed Discord by the collar and quietly said, "Look Discord, I don't know what your doing, but you better not ruin this for me and Celestia, got it!" Discord, who was still smiling, said, "Got it Twilight, now could you let go of me please."
A Hour Later
Twilight and Celestia thought that with Discord being their waiter was going to make things go from bad to worse....that was an understatement. Discord, while trying to be a professional, went and played pranks on the young couple, what with simple things like messing up their orders to major things to making Celestia's clothes disappear, which that one made both girls embarrassed. But once they got a third helping of wine, things got much quieter and, more or less, decent. "You know, It's a bit quieter without Discord bothering us Tia." Twilight said taking a sip of wine. Celestia then said, "Well, Discord is trying to make up for his actions a couple of months ago, but....at least he's trying." Suddenly, a loud boom rang across the restaurant as everyone, including Celestia and Twilight, to find a stage in the middle of the restaurant. On it was Discord performing a singing and dancing routine that included a fireworks spectacle and tap dancing penguins. Twilight and looks at Celestia and says, "OK, this is getting ridiculous Celestia, why don't we just leave." Celestia then said, "Now hold on Twilight, why don't we see where this is going." Twilight sighed and said, "Well...oh, alright."
Then, out of nowhere, Discord popped on to Twilight and Celestia's table and began a tap dancing routine. "Alright Discord, what in Tartarus are you doing!" Twilight yelled. Discord, while still tap dancing, replied, "I'm doing dinner and show for you two!" Suddenly, one of the fireworks accidentally went off and caused the whole restaurant to turn into a funhouse. Soon, monsters and plants started to appear as everyone started to run out of the restaurant in a panic, while Celestia and Twilight stayed to undo Discord's magic. After 30 minutes of fixing Discord's mess, Celestia and Twilight went to Silver Dollar to apologize for the mess and payed for their meal and Twilight left to escort Celestia back to Canterlot Castle.
Canterlot Castle
Once at the castle, Twilight says to Celestia, "Well...I had a very nice night...if Discord didn't try to ruin it." Celestia smiled and replied, "Well like I said, Discord was just trying to be his...well...usual self." Suddenly, a popping noise happens behind them and they both turn to see Discord standing behind them. Twilight then says, "Well, didn't aspect you to be here Discord." Discord then says, "Well, I just want to say I'm sorry about tonight. I just wanted to hang out with someone and well....I needed to have some fun." Twilight was about to say something to Discord until Celestia steps up to Discord and says, "Discord, while your actions tonight were....questionable to say the least, I still think you made this night...the most fun me and Twilight have had!" Twilight and Discord then gave confused looks and Twilight says, "But he turned the restaurant into a funhouse and set a bunch of creatures and monsters on everyone!" Celestia chuckled and said, "I know! Do you know how boring the night would have been if I didn't suggested to Discord to be our waiter tonight." Twilight then looked at Discord, who was laughing, and gave him a smirk at him. "Well, I might as well head on...." Twilight was about to say until Celestia says, "Well, why don't you stay at the castle tonight Twilight. I might as well make it up to you, if you know what I mean." Twilight smirks and says, "Well, if you say so." as they both walk up to the castle, leaving a confused Discord. "Wait," Discord says, "what do you mean by....ohhhhh, I know what you mean." Discord then conjures up a trash bin and begins to throw up a bit in it and says, "Well...I didn't need that in my mind tonight."
Twilight was enjoying a nice and mild Tuesday morning when a knock came from the front door. Going to and opening it, she was greeted by Derpy Hooves, Ponyville's mailwoman. "Hey Twilight, beautiful morning right!", Derpy exclaimed. "Sure is, so what do you have for me today?" Twilight replied. "Well, I have a letter from your parents from Canterlot and another one of Spike's magazines." Derpy replied. Twilight looked at the letter and said, "Huh, I wonder what they want to tell me?" "Well, thanks Derpy, you have a nice day!" Twilight exclaimed. Derpy said she would and walked off to continue her mail delivery.
Twilight entered her home opening the letter which, as Twilight read it, caused her to be shocked and surprised. The letter read as:
Dear Twilight,
We really enjoyed the dinner we had with you and Celestia, and we were thinking if you two could over on Friday night for dinner. Also, we think that the princess' parents should come over too. I know that sounds crazy considering who they are, but from how you described the time you went to the Afterlife (I still can believe it to this day), we figured it's time for the families to meet. Well, I have to go, your mother is having me repaint every square inch of the house, just in case, as she says, you answer back soon.
Your father,
Night Light
P.S. I just got a letter this second as I was finishing up writing this one from Shining Armor and Cadence. Says they are coming up on Friday night too. Well, looks like will have the whole family here then.
Twilight sat down on the couch with a worried look on her face. Sure, Celestia's parents wouldn't mind coming down to the mortal world to meet her parents, but....that was the problem. Lumina and Galaxior were basically gods, who had to tend their business up in the Afterlife, and would be too busy to come down to Equestria just to meet her parents. Twilight thought about it for a couple of minutes until she got up from the couch, went to her desk, and wrote a letter to Celestia explaining her situation.
A couple minutes pass until Twilight got a reply back stating that Celestia would talk to her parents about this and hopefully convince them to meet Twilight's family. Twilight sighed as she knew that that would take some time to do so, so Twilight went about her day without worry.
Later That Night
Twilight was coming back from one of Pinkie Pie's parties when she noticed a scroll laying on the coffee table when she entered her living room. Heart pounding and sweat coming down her forehead, she picked up the scroll and slowly opened it up. As she read it, she breathed a sigh of relief and gave a smile. The letter read as such:
My Dearest Twilight,
I have some wonderful news for the both of us! I went to my parents and just as I was about to mention it, they told me they knew about meeting your parents. (I guess I should have guessed that coming because...you know...god like parents.) Anyway, they told me they would love to come and meet your parents and agree to meet this Friday. I hope this calms you down a bit. Any who, I better get going, me and Luna have to attend in important trade negotiation tomorrow. Talk to you soon!
Your love,
Princess Celestia
Twilight sat down on the couch and sighed once more, but then she noticed there was a P.S. on it. She then read it and she almost giggled when she read it. The P.S. said:
P.S. My grandmother, Queen Faust, sent me a message saying she is coming down on Friday too. I just hope your parents don't freak out over it though.
Twilight snickered and got out a quill and scroll to write a letter to her parents telling them that Celestia's parents are coming down to meet them. Twilight then said to herself, "I hope Mom and Dad don't go overboard when I tell them this."
Friday Night - Velvet/Light Household
Twilight, Cadence, and Shining Armor, while all dressing nicely, sat in the living room watching Twilight Velvet and Night Light doing some last minute cleaning and putting up a few more paintings of Queen Faust. "Um, Mom," Twilight said, "Don't you think your going a bit overboard with the paintings?" Twilight Velvet then stopped and glared at Twilight and said, " Twilight...dear...while I would be OK if it was just the princess' parents, but when you told us that Queen Faust herself...the creator of everything around us...was coming too...yea, you would be in my shoes if..." She was then stopped when the doorbell rang. Twilight Velvet then shouted, "THERE HERE!" which caused everyone to jump. They all then got up and straighten out and dusted off there clothes. "Alright everyone, now happy smiles and...just don't mess this up alright." Everyone nodded and Twilight Velvet opened the front door, but before she could say anything, they all looked out with a gaped faces.
"Oh, I didn't know we were getting all dressed up." said Queen Lumina. The Sparkle family couldn't believe what they were seeing. Queen Lumina, King Galaxior, and Queen Faust...all wearing casual clothing. Celestia then got in front of her family and said, "Well, I didn't know either. Don't worry, I can fix this." Celestia then snapped her fingers and the Sparkle family were all wearing the clothes they were wearing earlier in the day. "Any who, it's nice to see you all again. Mrs. Velvet and Mr. Light, these are parents, Queen Lumina and King Galaxior." Celestia said to Twilight's parents. Queen Lumina then said, "Nice to meet you both in person. We think your daughter is quiet a charm." Twilight Velvet and Night Light could only stammer and shake Lumina and Galaxior's hands. But when Queen Faust stepped near them, they both got on their knees and both shouted, "Oh great Faust, we are blessed by your presence and hope we please you!" Queen Faust then looked around the living room and saw all of the paintings of her and said, "Ughhhh, this is going to be a long night." which prompted to cause everyone to laugh, except for Twilight Velvet and Night Light.
A Few Minutes Later
Despite Twilight and Celestia's worries, things were going perfectly. Twilight's parents were now settled down a bit for them to talk about themselves, but sometimes stammered when speaking to Queen Faust. Twilight then turned to her brother and sister-in-law and said, "So guys, how are things going in the Crystal Empire?" Cadence replied, "Well, they are same as usual, except for the citizens already sending me and Shining gifts and congratulations since we announced to them about the baby." Twilight chuckled as she remembered a couple weeks ago when Shining and Cadence came down to Ponyville to tell her that they were going to have a baby and that she was going to be an aunt, especially when she and her friends found out from Pinkie Pie that she had to keep the surprise a secret.
Once dinner got started, they all began to talk about Twilight and Celestia's relationship now being public. Twilight and Celestia found this to be unnecessary since it's been almost a month since they told Equestria they were dating, but could tell that the families wanted to discuss there reactions to the the announcement. While Twilight's parents and Celestia's parents already knew they were dating, Cadence and Shining Armor had to find out through the newspaper. Twilight especially remembered when Cadence and Shining Armor came by to Ponyville about a week after the announcement.
Twilight and Celestia were sitting in the reading room when Twilight heard a knock coming from the front door. When Twilight opened it, they were met by her brother and sister-in-law giving her a hug and Cadence congratulating on her's and Celestia's relationship. Shining, meanwhile, went to Celestia and 'attempted' to do the whole over protective big brother shtick to Celestia, but all he could muster what a few ummms and ahhhs and him walking away with an embarrassed look on his face. Twilight, Celestia, and Cadence all laughed which caused Shining to blush a bit.
"Shining didn't say a word until we got back home," Cadence said, "then, when we got back, he sat in a fetal position!" Everyone, except Shining, all laughed thinking about it. They all settled down and Queen Lumina said, "But the one thing I was afraid would happen would be that their relationship would get made fun of." Twilight Velvet repiled, "I agree, me and Night Light were ready to be on our daughter's side if something like that happened, but thankfully, everyone was OK with it after a couple of days for things to sink in." Celestia then said, "Well, a couple of the nobles in my court did give me looks for the first few days, but once they looked a Luna, they got a worried look and looked away from me." Twilight then said that Luna must of scared them straight some how. Twilight then said, "Wait...where is Luna. I thought she would be coming too." Celestia then said, "Well, she said she take over my duties for the night and well, dinner was right around the time she had her night duties, so she couldn't make it sadly."
Then, as if out of nowhere, Luna popped in with a tired look on her face, walking up to the dinner table and sitting next to Celestia. Luna then looked around and said, "Oh...good evening everyone!" As Luna began eating, everyone looked at her oddly, clearly wondering why she was here. "Ummm....why are you all looking at me?"
An Hour Later
After dinner, both families went to the living room and hung out and chatted about stuff. Twilight Velvet and Night Light were especially curious about Lumina and Galaxior's lives (or in their case, afterlives,) in the Afterlife, watching over all the souls up there, but the God-Immortals simply gave them the whole 'it would ruin the surprise' thing, which made Twilight's parents a little annoyed, but they understood what they meant. Queen Faust, on the other hand, was looking around Twilight Velvet and Night Light's home and seeing nothing but paintings of her to the point of annoyance. Night Light then walked up to Queen Faust and said, "So...do these paintings of you please you your...godliness?" Queen Faust then face-palmed, looked at Night Light and said, "UGHHH....this is why I sometimes don't come down, because people would be all like, 'Oh Queen Faust, we are not worthy to be in your presence' or be like 'Please my goddess, don't strike me down!' or something along those lines!" "I mean, I just want people to sometimes treat me like every other mortal down here and a goddess later. You understand do you?" Night Light pondered about it and nodded in agreement. Queen Faust sighed and walked back into the living room.
After a while, Twilight Velvet pulled out some board games to play. First, they played 'Whoops!' with some funny reactions coming from everyone, especially when Twilight pulled a card that would have sent Queen Faust back three spaces, prompting Queen Faust to say one of her 'You will be forgiven child.' lines, only to chuckle at what she said, prompting everyone to laugh as well. Next, they played 'Mystery' where they all had to solve a murder mystery. Queen Lumina won that one, as she then proclaimed out loud that she was the greatest detective in all of existence, prompting Celestia and Luna to blush and roll their eyes in embarrassment. Finally, they played 'Bankopolis' where you had to buy all of the properties. They all decided to quit playing after a while when Queen Faust began getting angry, and Twilight noticed that it started to rain extremely hard and tornadoes and hailstorms began pounding the mountains, to which Celestia explained that the last time she played a board game and got angry during it, she unleashed an illness across the planet for about a few weeks that nearly killed thousands.
It was now getting late and everyone was now ready to go home. Lumina, Galaxior, and Queen Faust all thanked Twilight's parents for a wonderful time and that they hope to see them again. Twilight Velvet and Night Light waved back and the God-Immortals teleported back to the Afterlife. Twilight Velvet and Night Light then turned back to Twilight, Celestia, Luna, Cadence, and Shining Armor and thanked them all for coming, to which all of them gave the Sparkles a group hug. Cadence and Shining Armor then told Twilight Velvet and Night Light they were heading back to the Crystal Empire and said goodbye to everyone and the Royal Couple walked to the train station to take a train back to the Crystal Empire.
Twilight and Celestia then turned to Twilight's parents and thanked them for inviting them over and Twilight Velvet and Night Light in turn thanked Twilight and Celestia for getting their families together to talk and get to know each other, (even though Luna was kind of a surprise.) After giving Twilight's parents one more hug, Twilight, Celestia, and Luna left in the direction of Canterlot Castle.
Once at Canterlot Castle, Twilight turned to the Royal Sisters and said, "Well, seems like things went pretty smoothly tonight then I would have thought." "I agree Twilight," Celestia replied, "things did work in our favor." Luna then said, "Well...until Grandmother got angry during the board games of course." All three chuckled and then Twilight, now calming down, said, "Well, good night girls." Celestia replied, "Good night as well Twilight." and her and Twilight then kissed for a period of time, which made Luna feel a bit awkward. Twilight then waved goodbye to the princesses and teleported back to Ponyville.
Celestia was in her bed reading a book when a knock came from her bedroom door. After saying to the other person they could enter, Luna enters the room and sat next to her sister. Luna then says, "Well, tonight was pretty exhausting for me." Celestia then says, "Why's that my dear sister?" Luna then replied, "Well, first was having to write down a few new laws, then there was attending that garden party, which I felt was very boring, and finally, my night court became a huge fiasco when one of the delegates began listing out his favorite books needed for the royal library! I mean...come on, I'm only 1019! Cut me a break!" Celestia then chuckled and said, "I know that our duties can be...well...annoying, but as the princesses of Equestria, we have a duty to protect our citizens, no matter how important or...well...not as important." Luna sighed and said, "Well, you always know what to say Tia." and gave Celestia a warm hug. But just as Luna was about to leave, Celestia said, "Oh Luna, I think I have an idea that can get you out of this funk." Luna turned around and said, "What is it this time sister?" Celestia then said, "Oh nothing...but I have noticed you've been eyeing one of the night guards, you know...the one who just started a couple of weeks ago." Luna suddenly sweated and blushed fiercely and said, "Huh! What! I...I don't have any....how did....oh never mind!" Celestia then chuckled seeing her sister being embarrassed. "Well," Luna said, "I'm...I'm going to bed. I thought tonight was fun and a nice way of relaxing sister." Celestia then said, "Indeed Luna, well, goodnight." "Goodnight sister, and pleasant dreams." Luna replied as she left Celestia's bedroom. Celestia then closed her book and placed it on her nightstand. "One day Luna...one day." said Celestia. Celestia then turned off her lamp and drifted off to sleep.
Twilight woke up to a crisp November morning where she could smell the sent of maple in the air, knowing it was almost the end of Fall. Twilight also knew it was almost time for this years Grand Galloping Gala. This year, Celestia wanted Twilight to oversee all of the preparations and organization of the event, especially after what happened last year. Twilight got out of bed and went downstairs to see what Spike was cooking for breakfast when she remembered that Spike had gone on a date with Rarity the night before and he said that they were going to do some 'important things' after dinner.
Twilight decided to cook some eggs and toast, when the sound of the mail-slot rang in Twilight's ears. Twilight went to the entrance hall and went to pickup the mail. Twilight noticed a letter from Celestia and realized it was her list of things to do for the Gala. As Twilight was reading it, a sudden realization came to her. It been almost 3 years since her and Celestia started dating, and Twilight started to remember something that Celestia said to her a couple weeks ago.
Twilight and Celestia were having a nice picnic in Ponyville Park laughing and talking about planing for this years Grand Galloping Gala, when Celestia says to Twilight, "Twilight, you know it will almost be three years since we've been dating, right." Twilight nodded and said, "Why do you ask Celly?" Celestia blushed and said to the young Magi, "Well....have you ever thought of taking our relationship to the next level...so to say?" Twilight pondered for a bit, then her eyes widened and she said, "Celestia...while I understand what you're saying....I don't think I'm ready for that kind of commitment...at least for a while." Celestia sighed, but smiled at Twilight and her and Twilight went back to enjoying their picnic.
Twilight stood there pondering and pondering, till she made up her mind. She put down her mail and went to work planing out the Gala, but she kept one thing in the back of her mind, and it was something she didn't regret doing, because once she was at the Gala...in front of her friends, family, and all of the nobles of Equestria....
.....she was going to ask Celestia to marry her.
2 Days Later - Friendship Castle
Twilight had called all of her friends to her home to tell them some important news. Once the girls were seated at the Cutie Map, they all patiently waited for Twilight to show up. "Dang, what's taking Twilight so long?" Rainbow Dash blurted out after 30 minutes passed by. Rarity then said, "Rainbow, be patient, I'm sure Twilight has her reasons for being late." "Oh, I hope it's not something serious." Fluttershy said with a worried tone. "Nah, I think Twilight would tell us if something was gett'n her goat Fluttershy." Applejack said reassuring. Suddenly, the doors opened and Twilight was smiling very gleefully as she went to sit down in her chair. Before anyone could say anything, Twilight stood back up, cleared her throat, and said, "Girls, I'm pretty sure your all wondering why I called you all here today." They all nodded and Twilight continued, "Well, as you know, the Grand Galloping Gala is in 4 weeks, and preparations are going perfectly and smoothly, as I have planed of course," Twilight chuckled a bit before fixing her composure and continued, "Well, I have to so you girls something, but you all have to promise, and I mean PINKIE PROMISE, not to tell anyone." All of them did the Pinkie Promise gestures and Twilight sighed and said, "Good."
Twilight then put her hand in her pocket and pulled out a small box. The Mane 5 all gasped as they knew what was going to be inside, but Twilight still opened the box, revealing it's contents. The box, with the inside covered in red felt, contained a golden ring with a diamond on the top, with said diamond containing a etching of Celestia's cutie mark in the center. All of them sat a gaped at the ring until Pinkie Pie shouted, "YOUR GOING TO ASK CELESTIA TO MARRY YOU!" Twilight blushed and nodded yes, and was suddenly surrounded by her friends who gave her a group hug. "Well dang Twilight, I didn't think you'd be the first of us to get married." Applejack said. Rainbow Dash then looked at her girlfriend and said, "Um, AJ, Twilight hasn't even asked Celestia to marry her yet." Pinkie then asked, "So, when are you going to ask Celestia Twi? During a romantic dinner, or a beautiful sunset. Oh! Oh! How about on a moonlit night near the lake!" Twilight giggled a bit a Pinkie's suggestions and said, "No Pinkie, I'm going to ask her at the Gala. I kind feel like it was most appropriate."
"So how are you going to do it Twilight, like, do you have any cues in place to make it spectacular?" Rainbow asked. Twilight then said, "Other than requesting to play me and Celestia's favorite orchestral piece, I'm just gonna let the night flow itself." Rarity then said, "I think that is a good idea Twilight, letting the night play out and not letting it be a huge spectacle." "I just hope your not nervous about this Twilight." Fluttershy added. Twilight laughed and said, "Me nervous, not in the slightest. You'll see, I can do this." All of them cheered and gave Twilight another hug and they all began to talk about the Gala, but Twilight had one thing on her mind, and was determent to go through with it. "I know I can do this!" Twilight said to herself.
4 Weeks Later - Carousal Boutique
"I...I can't go through with this!" Twilight shouted as Rarity was styling Twilight's hair. Applejack then gave Twilight a nudge in her arm and said, "You better not be planing to chicken out Twilight." Twilight then sighed and said, "I'm sorry girls, but I'm now just getting nervous, I'm mean...what if she says no...or worse!" "TWILIGHT! PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER!" Pinkie Pie said shaking her friend and slapping her face in a cartoony way. "Ok! Ok! Pinkie, I'm calm! I'm calm!" Twilight said as she grabbed Pinkie's arm. "It's just....I'm not sure I can go through with this." "Twilight Sparkle," Rainbow Dash said, "the girl who faced many foes and came out on top, is nervous about a marriage proposal." Twilight chuckled and said, "OK Rainbow, I can tell what your going to say, so yea, I shouldn't be nervous." "That's the spirit Twilight!" Rarity exclaimed. "Now, let's get into your Gala dress. Celestia is just gonna love what your going to wear!"
A Couple of Hours Later - Canterlot Castle
Celestia stood with her sister, greeting all of the guests and thanking them for coming to the Gala. However, Celestia was getting more and more worried, considering Twilight and her friends have yet to show up. "Oh, maybe I should go out and see if there carriage has arrived." Celestia said in a concerned tone until Luna put her hand on Celestia's shoulder and said, "Sister, I'm sure there carriage will arrive soon." Celestia sighed and said, "I...I know Luna...but still, I should at lea...."
"PRESENTING, LADY TWILIGHT SPARKLE AND HER FRIENDS!"
Celestia looked up and her mouth stood agape at what she was. Standing near the castle doors was Twilight, wearing a more elegant version of her dress from the first time she was at the Gala, except it matched her hair color and her hair was curled and covering her right eye. Twilight walked up to the sun and moon princesses, curtsied, and says, "Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, lovely night is it not?" Twilight then chuckled and said, "Oh, I'm just kidding being all fancy. Still, how has the Gala been going?" Celestia, now knocked out of her daze, replies, "Oh, the Gala starting to be great so far. I'm just happy you got here in time Twilight." "Me to Celestia. So, shall we go and 'party.'" Celestia giggled and said, "Of course Miss Sparkle, I would love that." As Twilight and Celestia walked off to the ballroom, The Mane 5 walked up to Luna to greet her.
"Oh, I'm glad you all could show up!" Luna said ecstatically as she pulled Twilight's friends into a group hug. Applejack, after catching her breath, replied, "Well that's nice to know princess. I can tell this is going to be a night to remember, I might say." Luna then said, "I'm confused, what do you mean?" Pinkie Pie then said, "You mean Twilight didn't tell you." Luna shook her head in disagreement and Pinkie went up to Luna's ear and whispered into it. Luna's expression changed from confused to shocked in a matter of seconds. "You mean...Twilight...is gonna..." Luna stammered as the Mane 5 shook their heads in agreement. Luna then whooped and hollered excitedly, but stopped when she caught a glimpse of some of the nobles looking at her funny. Luna then said, "Oh this is most wonderful news! I also find it different for Twilight Sparkle to not go all out with the proposal and just let the night flow on until that perfect moment." Pinkie Pie then said, "It's also cool by the fact that, if Celestia and Twilight get married, Twilight will be your sister-in-law." Luna then said, "True, but I mostly care about my sister's happiness first over a title.....except for my princess-y duties." Applejack then said, "Well girls, let's go party and let Princess Luna finish greeting the nobles." As they left, Luna stood there think about her sister and Twilight's future with a smile on her face, which has caused the nobles to look at the night princess funny.
Two Hours Later
Things at the Gala were going pretty smoothly, except for when Discord tried to do his stand up comedy act, which ended with Discord 'accidentally' releasing 5 foot chickens after doing a joke involving...well...5 foot chickens. Once Celestia, Luna, and Twilight fixed the mess and got rid of the chickens, Celestia and Twilight sat down near a table and talked for a bit. Celestia, however, started to noticed Twilight looked nervous about something and the fact of the few sweat beads on her forehead. "Twilight, is there something wrong? You look like your waiting for something." Celestia said in a worrying tone. Twilight looked at Celestia and said, "Something wrong! No, I'm alright, nothings wrong at all." Twilight then chuckled weirdly and darted her eyes around. Celestia then said, "Uh Huh....I'm going to get something to drink." Twilight then said, as Celestia was leaving, "All right, you go do that!"
Once Celestia was out of sight, Twilight gave a sad sigh and said to herself, "Come on Twilight, what's wrong with you! All your doing is stalling time!" Twilight then pulled the ring-box out of her purse and said, "But, I want tonight to be a night to remember for me and Celly." Twilight then gave a stern face and got up, with her confidence now back in place.
After about another hour, as everyone was getting ready to dance, Princess Luna appeared on stage to announce that the orchestra was going to perform a requested piece. "The piece they are going to play was requested by Miss Twilight Sparkle, in honor of her love, my sister, Princess Celestia." Celestia looked at Twilight, who held out her hand and said, "Princess Celestia, may I have this dance?" Celestia, who was giving a look of confusion at first, smiled warmly and said, "Of course you may Twilight Sparkle." As they both walked out to the dance floor, everyone in the ballroom moved away from the Magi and Immortal and gave them enough space. Celestia and Twilight began to waltz as the orchestra played Beathoofven's 5th Symphony, which was Celestia and Twilight's favorite orchestral piece. "Twilight, did you plan this dance?" Celestia asked as they waltzed. Twilight simply smiled and said, "I just wanted this night to be perfect." Celestia then said, "It has been perfect." Twilight and Celestia both then looked into each others eyes for the duration of the dance, except for the occasional spin or twirl.
Once the piece was done, Twilight and Celestia bowed to each other and everyone in the ballroom clapped. Celestia then said, "Twilight, that was the best dancing have done in years!" Twilight smiled and her and Celestia kissed each other, bringing a collection of awws in the room. Twilight then said, "Well, the night is not yet complete." Celestia gave Twilight a confused look on her face and said, "I...I don't understand Twilight." Twilight then said, "Celestia, for these last 3 years, I never knew my former teacher could be the one person I would fall for. I also never thought that you could make me happy, or be there when I was sad, or just make me laugh when I felt gloomy, and for that, I'm lucky to have someone like you as my girlfriend." Celestia, who was wiping the tears on her face, said, "Oh, Twilight, that was the loveliest thing that anyone has ever said to me."
Twilight then looked around at everyone, especially her friends and Luna, who all nodded back at Twilight. Celestia noticed that Twilight was looking at her friends and Luna and asked, "Twilight? How come you were...." But her words were stopped as Twilight got down on one knee and pull the ring-box out of her purse. Everyone in the room gasped as soon as Twilight knelled at Celestia and they all realized what was going on. Twilight opened the box and revealed the ring to Celestia, who was speechless and was tearing up again. "Princess Celestia," Twilight said, "will you marry me?" Celestia stood their, frozen to the ground and speechless, finally spoke up and said, "T-Twilight...I...I don't know what to say.." Twilight then got a worried look on her face and said, "I know, it was stupid for me to ask you in front of everyone and..." "No, Twilight, I didn't say no." said Celestia. Twilight then saw Celestia's face go from serious to tear-filled as she grabbed Twilight into a hug and said, "I want to say....YES! A THOUSAND TIMES YES! I will marry you Twilight Sparkle!" Twilight's eyes then glowed as her mood grew more happy. Everyone in the room cheered loudly as they all clapped and cheered. Twilight, now with her eyes covered in tears, placed the ring on Celestia's finger. Celestia, gazing on the ring, said, "Oh Twilight, it's very beautiful." Twilight giggled and said, "It not as beautiful as you." Celestia wiped a tear of her face and her and Twilight kissed passionately as everyone cheered louder.
Midnight - Canterlot Castle
After the night went on and everyone congratulated Celestia and Twilight on their upcoming marriage, it was now time for this years Gala to end. All of the nobles and invited guests all got on their carriages and said goodbye to the princesses. After everyone left, sans the Mane 6 and Discord, they all gathered back into the ballroom. While Celestia was showing Luna the engagement ring, Twilight was talking to her friends and Discord and congratulating her for hers and Celestia's marriage. "Well, congrats Twilight, you actually did it!" Applejack said in an enthusiastic voice. Rainbow Dash gave Twilight a pat on the shoulder and said, "Have to admit Twilight, got a bit teary-eyed during your speech to the princess, and I don't normally cry about most things." Rarity then said, "OOOH! Twilight! You must have me be yours and Princess Celestia's wedding dress designer!" Pinkie Pie then said, "Um, Rarity, they just got engaged, we don't know when they are getting married for Faust's sake anyway." Twilight giggled a bit, when Discord voiced up and said, "Well, congrats Twilight! I tell you that was some little speech, oh, almost cried a river hearing that!" Discord then poofed a river on to the Mane 6's heads, but dried them all up.
"Um, so Twilight, what are you and Celestia going to do now?" Fluttershy asked calmly. Discord then poof beside her and said, "Oh! I know what they need!" Discord then poofed a cake, disappeared and then popped out of the cake and said, "A battlourette party!" "GUYS!" Twilight shouted. "I know you guys are excited, but me and Celestia still need to plan out stuff, speaking of which." Twilight then walked up to Celestia and said, "You won't mind if I stay here for the night Celesta, do you?" Celestia giggled and said, "Well of course you can Twilight." Luna then added, "I bet you two are going to celebrate if you know what I mean, wink wink nudge nudge say no more." Everyone then gave Luna an awkward stare which prompted Luna to say, "What? What are you all looking at?"
After helping clean up the ballroom with the maids and servants, Twilight and Celestia headed up to Celestia's bedroom to get some rest. As Twilight was getting ready for bed, Celestia says to her, "Twilight, tonight was just...well...magical." Twilight then says, "Well, I wanted this to be the best night we've ever had together." Celestia then looked at her ring and said, "Well, you most definitely did." After finishing up, Celestia and Twilight retreated under the covers and held on to each other. "Well, goodnight my lovely Twilight." said Celestia. Twilight replied, "Sweet dreams my beautiful bride." Once Celestia turned of the lights, the both drifted off to sleep, dreaming about there future and what is holds for them, both knowing that this night was a night to remember....and was to never be forgotten.
Like wildfire, the news of Twilight Sparkle and Princess Celestia's engagement spread throughout not just Equestria, but the whole world. People were sending them letters, ice sculptures, and flowers of congratulations and many citizens went and shook Twilight's hand and gave a her a pat on the back and celebrated with her by holding a party for her, hosted by Pinkie Pie of course. Yes, things were looking good for Twilight and Celestia. However, Twilight and Celestia knew that they had to tell their families they are engaged. So, Twilight sent a letter to her parents to come down to Ponyville soon and Celestia went to the Afterlife to tell her parents the same thing. After contacting them, both of their parents were thrilled to see them and would be coming to Ponyville the next week. Celestia and Twilight breathed a sigh of relief and Twilight went to work getting her castle ready for her parents and soon-to-be in-laws.
One Week Later
Twilight was patiently pacing around in the front corridor with Celestia twiddling her fingers, both worried of what both of their parents would think of them getting married. Suddenly, the sound of the door bell rang throughout the castle. Twilight dusted of herself and opened the doors to find her's and Celestia's parents standing outside. Twilight then hugged her parents and Celestia did the same as they both ushered them in to the living room. "I'm so glad you guys could come here." Twilight said gleefully. Twilight Velvet then said, "Of course Twilight, we wouldn't pass up a visit to see you in Ponyville. So, how come you wanted me, your father, and her majesty's parents down here?" Twilight and Celestia both blushed and Twilight said, "Well....me and Celestia have to tell you both something....something very big." the parents all sat there in anticipation when Twilight suddenly said, "You see....me and Celestia....are getting married!"
Suddenly, Twilight and Celestia's parents expressions turned from wonder to shock then to excitement in just seconds of each other. Twilight Velvet and Queen Lumina both got up and hugged there daughters and Twilight Velvet tearfully said, "OH! MY BABY GIRL IS GETTING MARRIED!" Twilight, while gasping for air, replied, "Thanks Mom...but can you...not hug me so tight!" Twilight Velvet then let go of Twilight, who was currently gasping for breath, and said, "I'm sorry Twilight, but I'm just so happy for you!" Twilight smiled lightly and said, "I know Mom." Lumina then said, "I knew you and my daughter were going to get hitched sooner or later." King Galaxor then said, "I agree, but to be honest, me and your mother knew about yours and Twilight's engagement Celestia." Celestia didn't answer because she already knew the answer to how her parents knew about the engagement. Night Light then spoke up and said, "So....when is the wedding exactly?" Twilight and Celestia both looked at each other and Twilight said, "Well....me and Celestia have been thinking around the Spring...but then she suggested that we should get married on Hearts and Hooves Day. You know...cause it kind of makes sense.... a bit." Both of their parents looked at the sun princess and young Magi and then Twilight Velvet said, "Actually, that does make some sense. Being it is the day of sharing love and all." The others all agreed with her and Twilight said, "Well then, Hearts and Hooves Day it is!" Both families then got together in a group hug knowing in a few months, their families would be one.
A Couple of Weeks Later
After announcing the wedding date to citizens of Equestria, the whole country began to prepare for the wedding of their beloved ruler. As for Twilight and Celestia, they had the wedding planing to do. Once they wrote out the guest list and sent invitations (even though the whole country was practically already invited,) they invited the Mane Five to Twilight's castle to discuss there roles in the wedding. Like with Cadence and Shining Armor's wedding, Celestia wanted the Mane Five to help with the wedding planing. "Applejack, we want you to do the catering for the wedding." Twilight said to the apple farmer. Applejack then said, "Well O'Course Twi! I'll make sure ya'll have some of the best food Sweet Apple Acres can bring!" Twilight beamed and turned to Pinkie Pie and said, "Of course I hope me and Celly can count on you to plan the reception Pinkie." Pinkie Pie then jumped up and down and shouted, "You bet Twilight!"
Twilight then turned to Fluttershy and said, "Fluttershy, we want you to have your bird choir do the wedding march." Fluttershy blushed and said, "My goodness, of course guys!" Twilight then looked at Rainbow Dash, who gave a bored expression, until Twilight said, "Well Rainbow, I guess you don't want to perform a sonic rainboom when me and Celestia finish exchanging our vows and 'I Do's." Rainbow then sat back up and said, "OH! Of course I do! You can count on me Twilight." Twilight then turned to Rarity, only to noticed that she had a very excited look on her face, but she still said, "And of course, I know you will..." but before Twilight could finish, Rarity jumped up and went right next to Twilight and said, "Don't worry Twilight, yours and Celestia's wedding dresses will be the most elegant and extravagant in all of Equestria, no, THE WHOLE WORLD! Everyone will soon know the name, Rarity!" After Rarity finished, everyone looked at her awkwardly, which prompted her to chuckle nervously.
Everyone stood in silence until Twilight cleared her throat and said, "Well then, I guess that's all." until she remembered something and looked at Rarity and said, "Oh, Rarity, I almost forgot, I want to know when your available." Rarity knew that she was asking about Twilight's and Celestia's dress fittings but she still said, "Why do you wish to know darling?" Twilight then said, "Well...I was wondering if I could schedule my dress fitting after Celestia's....you know, cause we want our wedding dresses to be a surprise for each other." Rarity smiled and said, "Of course darling! I'll try to fit you and Princess Celestia's dress fittings at different times." Twilight then replied, "Thanks Rarity! Any who, I need to supervise and plan out how the ceremony goes, so I hope I can on you girls." Celestia then said, "I think they'll be able to Twilight." She then gave Twilight a kiss on the cheek, which made the Mane Five go "AWWW!" They then began to discuss about the wedding as Celestia and Twilight looked at each other warmly, thinking about their future.
Two Weeks Later
Things have been going smoothly with the wedding planing for Celestia and Twilight. After ordering the flowers for the bouquet and replying to all of the ASAPs from the invitations, Twilight was the first to receive a letter from Rarity concerning about the date for her wedding dress fitting, which Rarity wrote that Twilight show up the next day at 2:00 PM. Twilight then called Spike to tell him to write down the date and time to make sure she didn't forget it. Twilight then went to sleep and began thinking about what kind of wedding dress Rarity has made for her wedding day.
The Next Day
Twilight and her mother and the Mane Four, whom she invited, entered Carousel Boutique only for Rarity to walk up to them and guide them to the dressing room. Twilight then said, "Thanks for letting me do this Rarity, you know how much this means to me and Celestia." "Not at all darling. Now, your dress is behind the curtain all ready for you. Now, if you want me to do any modif..." Rarity tried to say until she noticed Twilight going behind the curtain. Rarity smiled and rolled her eyes sarcastically and they all sat and waited for Twilight to put on her wedding dress.
After a while, Twilight stepped out of the curtain, everyone gasped, including Rarity, as they all saw Twilight in her dress. Rarity then put a mirror up for Twilight and Twilight gasped at how she looked in her wedding dress. The dress was white, but with a mix of lavender and pink highlights with lavender roses in the veil, with the train having small white gems strung across in diamond shapes. Twilight began to tear up as she said, "Rarity...th-this dress is beautiful...oh, than you Rarity!" Rarity then said, "Well, you did want it at the exact modifications, luckily I had the right amount of gems for the train." Twilight, wiping off her tears, looked at the rest of her friends and her mother and said, "Well, what do you all think?" The rest of the Mane Four agreed that Twilight looked absolutely beautiful in her wedding dress, but Twilight Velvet stood up and walked up to her daughter and pulled out a large box. Twilight wondered what was in it when Twilight Velvet opened it and in it was a beautiful flower of white and sky blue. Twilight then noticed it was the same flower her mother wore in her hair on hers and her father's wedding day. Twilight Velvet, while trying to hold back tears, said, "I've been waiting for a long time for this day to come. Now, you get to wear this on your wedding day." Twilight, who was now back to crying, hugged her mother, who hugged back. The Mane Five all began to tear up until they all calmed down.
Twilight then turned to Rarity when Rarity said, "No need to pay me Twilight, it's on the house." Twilight then thanked Rarity, but just as they were about to leave, the doorbell rang and a voice could be heard saying, "Rarity! It's me, Princess Celestia. I here for my dress fitting." Suddenly, everyone started to panic, but Twilight remained calm and asked Rarity for a black clothes bag. After Rarity put Twilight's wedding dress in the bag, she ran up to the door and opened it, letting Celestia, Luna, and their parents in. Twilight and the others began to leave when Twilight bumped into Celestia. Twilight then said, "Oh, sorry Celly, didn't noticed you were in front of me." Celestia giggled and said, "It's fine Twilight, I'm guessing you just got your wedding dress fitting done." Twilight then noticed she was looking at the bag the dress was in. Twilight then said, "Sure did, and I'm guessing your having your dress fitting done." Celestia nodded and said, "Well, you have nice day dear." Twilight giggle and kissed her fiance on the cheek and said, "I will." Twilight and the others then left to head to Twilight's castle while Celestia continued to talk to Rarity about her wedding dress.
Later That Night
Twilight was getting ready for bed when Spike came into Twilight's bedroom holding a letter from Celestia. It said:
My Dearest Twilight,
While our little bump into each other was accidental, my dress fitting went phenomenal. As you know, I'm not going to tell you what my dress looks like, but all I can say is that your going to love it when I wear it on our wedding day. Any who, me and Luna have to go to an important meeting with a few delegates of Saddle Arabia.
Your love and future wife,
Princess Celestia
Twilight sat down on her bed and re-read the letter, thinking what Celestia's wedding dress was. Spike then came back into the room and said, "Hey Twilight, I got this list of things you need for the reception, mind if I send them to Pinkie?" Twilight then looked at Spike and said, "Go ahead Spike, I'm going to bed." Spike then said, "Alright Twilight, you have a nice night." Twilight replied, "You too Spike." As Spike closed the door and left the room, Twilight laid in the bed until she fell asleep, thinking about her wedding day and how...magical, as one might say, it will be.
To Be Continued....in Chapter 16....then fully continued in Chapter 17
Celestia woke up and rose the sun to a beautiful Tuesday morning. Celestia then looked down at her engagement ring as a reminder that her and Twilight are getting married in two months. Celestia stretched a little and walked out of her room to get something to eat for breakfast when she bumped into Luna, who was walking down the hallway. Celestia then said, "Oh! Sorry Luna, I didn't see you there." Luna then replied, "It's alright sister, you didn't do anything wrong." Luna smiled and continued to go down the hallway, which made Celestia feel very curious, so she followed her.
After a while, Celestia somehow managed to lose Luna, until she heard a giggle coming from Luna's bedroom. So Celestia followed the sound and, once she found Luna's bedroom, knocked on the door and, after Luna said she could come in, entered her sister's bedroom. Celestia noticed Luna looking out from her balcony. She walked up to her and noticed she had a look she herself had so many times before. "Well well well...I guess I was right, you do have a crush on one of your guards." Luna then blushed and darted her eyes left and right and said, "W-What makes you think....I mean it's just....I can....ugh, fine, I do have a...'small' crush on one of my night guards." Celestia smiled and said, "Well which one is it?" Luna then pointed to one of the recruits, to which Celestia had to squint her eyes to get a good look at him. Celestia then saw the guard Luna was pointing at. He was short, but had a decent muscular structure, and his hair color was mix of dark blue with a light blue zig zag going down the side of his head. Celestia then looked at Luna and said, "Well, I can see why your smitten by him. By the way, what is his name?" Luna then said, "His name is Bright Star, from what I've heard, he joined the guard about five months ago."
Celestia looked at her sister and a thought came into her head. "If this guy started months ago, then why hasn't Luna talk to him yet?" Celestia then looked at her sister and said, "Luna, have you ever thought of talking to him?" Luna's eyes then widened and dilated and she said, "Oh no! I can't...I-I'm to out of the game so to speak, and I'm also kind of nervous to talk to him." Celestia then rolled her eyes, mostly as she thought back to the many times in her youth she was in the same predicament Luna was in. Celestia then put her arm around her sister and said, "Well, maybe I can help you out with that." Luna then looks at Celestia with a worried look on her face.
2 Hours Later
Celestia decided to put Luna through a court shipping lesson, with help from Twilight of course, who was asked by Twilight to come up and help teach Luna how to romance, which Twilight was alright to do. "OK Luna, first lesson is to start a simple conversation." said Celestia, as she gives Luna a sheet of parchment that has a list of conversation starters. Luna looks to the list and looks back up to Twilight and Celestia in confusion. "Soooo.....how does this get me to talk to Bright Star?" Luna asked. Celestia and Twilight both facepalmed in annoyance and Twilight continued to teach Luna how to talk to guys properly.
As Twilight continued to teach Luna, even going into flashcards and diagrams of male anatomy, Luna began to get bored of this and began to go into a daydream about her and Bright Star having a romantic dinner on the beach.
"Oh Bright, you art thou...I mean, you are such a charmer." Luna says as her and Bright Star watch the sunset. Luna then looks at Bright and says, "I'm thinking that maybe you and I should run off together. What do you think?"
"LUNA!!! ARE YOU EVEN PAYING ATTENTION!"
Luna snorted and noticed Twilight looking at her very angry at her and Celestia was almost at the point of laughing. Luna smiled awkwardly as Twilight continued to go back to what she was telling Luna.
Later That Night
After Luna rose the moon, she went and lied on her bed groaning and feeling annoyed after the 'lesson' Twilight gave her about romancing a guy. "Oh, why does Celestia make it seem easy." Luna said to herself. Suddenly, a knock came from her bedroom door. Luna then tells the person on the other side to enter. As the door opens, Luna's expression changes from tired to shock as she gasps at the person. It turned out to be Bright Star, to which Luna said, "Oh, you must be the new night guard...er...Bright Star, is it?" Bright replied, "Yes your majesty, I was asked by Princess Celestia to stand guard outside tonight." Luna then rolled her eyes. "Clearly Celestia told him to help me out."
Bright then said, "Excuse me princess, but it's there something wrong?" Luna then blushed and said, "Oh no, nothing's really wrong to be honest." Bright then said, "Heh, sounds like something my little brother would say." Luna and Bright stayed silent until Luna said, "Excuse me, Private Star.... " Bright then said, "Just call me Bright your majesty." Luna then said, "Oh, ok....so Bright, I was wondering.....if your not busy.....do you want to have lunch one day.....if...your up to it of course." Bright then rose and eyebrow, smirked, and said, "My my Princess Luna, from the sounds of things, your asking me out on a date." Luna blushed and said, "I guess you can say that." Bright smiled and said, "Why of course. I would be honored your majesty." Luna smiled and said, "Please, call me Luna." Bright then said, "Alright then. Well, I better get to my post outside, good night yo....I mean, Luna." Luna replied, "Good night Bright." Bright then left Luna's bedroom, and Luna giggled like a little girl at the fact she was able to talk to Bright. "I guess those lessons are starting to pay off." Luna said to herself.
Princess Celestia was walking down the hall to her bedroom when she noticed Bright coming out of Luna's bedroom. Celestia then walked up to Bright and said, "So...how are you doing Private Bright Star?" Bright then saluted and said, "Princess Celestia....I wasn't doing anything inappropriate to your sister your majesty, to be honest, she asked me to accompany her sometime to have lunch with her." Celestia warmly smiled and said, "I just wanted to make sure." As Celestia was walking off, Bright spoke up and said, "Congratulations by the way on your upcoming marriage to Twilight Sparkle." Celestia looked back and said, "Why thank you Private." Bright Star smiled proudly and Celestia continued to walk to her bedroom.
As Celestia entered her bedroom, she began to think about Luna and Bright Star's relationship going forward. Considering how far Twilight and her have gone, Celestia felt optimistic about the future of her sister's love life, even if it hasn't started yet. Celestia was getting ready for bed when she remembered a letter Twilight had sent earlier after she went back to Ponyville, telling her that she and her had to talk to Pinkie Pie about how the reception should go and what music should play at it. Celestia put that thought down in the back of her head as she drifted off to sleep, now thinking about no only her future, but her sisters as well.
Love is in the air across the land of Equestria, and not just because it's Hearts and Hooves Day. For you see, after months of planing and anticipation, the wedding of the millennium had finally arrived. People from as far as Saddle Arabia and as wide as Griffinstone came to Equestria to celebrate the marriage of Princess Celestia and Twilight Sparkle. The city of Canterlot was very extravagant, considering the fact the citizens decked the city with a mix of it's usual Hearts and Hooves Day decorations and the decorations in honor of the royal wedding. While guests were being seated into the throne room to await for the ceremony to begin, Twilight Sparkle was getting ready for her big day.
"Ohhh! You look so beautiful Twilight! Celestia's going to love you in your dress!" Rarity said to Twilight as she adjusted her veil. Pinkie Pie was jumping up and down excitedly and said, "I know right! Twilight and Celestia are getting married today!" Fluttershy responded in her quiet tone, "Well, we are Twilight's bridesmaids Pinkie." Pinkie Pie then said, "In know Flutters, it's just....ooooohhhhh, I'm just so excited I think I going to burst out my cupcakes!" Everyone laughed as Pinkie stopped bouncing around and was able to catch her breath. After they all stopped laughing, Pinkie Pie spoke back up and said, "Now I wonder who going to get married next." Twilight, in a sly tone, replied, "Hmmm, I think a certain farmgirl and her rainbow-haired girlfriend are next Pinkie." As soon as they heard it, both Applejack and Rainbow Dash blushed and Rainbow replied, "Heheh, I don't know Twilight, me and AJ aren't probability ready for that kind of commitment." Applejack then turned to Rainbow and said, "I don't know Dashie, I might just pop the question any day now." Rainbow Dash blushed at Applejack's response and everyone in the room had a good laugh.
Suddenly, a knock on the door silenced the laughter. A voice from the other side rang out saying, "Hey girls, are you decent?" Twilight answered that they were and the door opened. Entering were Spike, Shining Armor, Twilight Velvet, and Night Light, who wanted to see there daughter/sister before the wedding. Both Twilight Velvet and Night Light began to burst into tears at the sight of their daughter. Night Light spoke up saying, "My my.....you look extraordinarily beautiful Twilight....it seems like yesterday that you were running around in diapers." Twilight blushed, but then hugged her father, "But...now it's time for me to check off another milestone in my life." Twilight said with tears filling her eyes. Twilight Velvet then walked up to Twilight and put the blue flower on to Twilight's veil and said, "Well, now the look is complete." Twilight hugged and thanked her mother, when she heard the sound of weeping coming from her BBBFF. Twilight turned to Shining and said, "Let me guess...'liquid pride' coming out of your eyes Shining?" Shining then proceeded to give Twilight a big hug, while still crying. "I-I'm s-s-sorry Twily, it's just that...I r-really love weddings!" Twilight rolled her eyes in amusement and hugged back her brother. Spike then walked to Twilight and gave her a hug as well. "What, nothing to say to me Spike?" Twilight said in amusement. Spike, now with tears in his eyes as well, replied, "What do I have to say, I'm just happy for you." Twilight smiled at her adopted little brother, hugged him, then breathed in and said, "Well, I'm ready." Everyone cheered as they left to go to the throne room, where the ceremony was going to take place in.
Meanwhile, in Celestia's bedroom
Celestia sat in front of her mirror, silently staring at herself, knowing in a couple of minutes, her and Twilight will be together in matrimony. As she was appliying a bit of blush to her cheeks, a knock was heard from her door. "Come in!" Celestia said. Luna and Cadence entered the room and both awed at Celestia in her wedding dress. It was a white and gold dress, with bits of cloth going down the waste in the same colors as her hair and her veil was adorned with golden lilies. "Oh sister, you look so beautiful in your dress." Luna said. Celestia then replied, "Well, Rarity did a good job design it, especially the modifications she did to it." Cadence then said, "Auntie, you won't mind if I style your hair a bit, do you?" Celestia smiled and said, "Not at all Cadence." Cadence smiled and went to style Celestia's hair. Luna then said, "Thanks again for letting me perform the ceremony sister." Cadence then said, "Hmm, I guess that's why you chose me to be your Maid of Honor." Celestia replied, "That is quite true Cadence." Luna still remembers about two weeks before the wedding when Celestia went up to her and asked her to marry her and Twilight.
Luna was busy making the final preparations for her sister's wedding when she heard footsteps coming from behind her. Luna turned around to find Celestia walking up to her. "Sister," Luna said in a startling voice, "what do you need?" Celestia then said, "Luna...you have helped me and Twilight a lot throughout our relationship, while I really want you to be my Maid of Honor, I feel that with how much you mean to me as a friend and your sister, I instead want you to perform the ceremony. What do you say?" Luna was in shock, what with Celestia giving her such a big responsibility, but she, with all her heart, responded, "Of course sister! I'd be honored to marry you and Twilight." She then gave Celestia a hug and her and Celestia went to talk about the final preparations.
Luna smiled warmly at that memory, but then gave a puzzling look on her face and asked, "Wait a minute, how come you didn't ask Grandmother Faust to perform the ceremony?" Celestia replied, "Well....I did ask her, but then she gave me this look and started to bang her head on the table...so, I told her she didn't have to do it if she wasn't up to it, which she said was fine." Suddenly, as if out of nowhere, Lumina, Galaxior, and Queen Faust appeared in the room. Celestia, Luna, and Cadence turned and saw them all standing there in their best outfits. Lumina and Galaxior walked up to Celestia and hugged her stating how proud they were. "After years of seeing you in countless relationships, you finally get to settle down." Lumina said tearfully. Celestia, also with tears in her eyes, replied, "I been waiting for a day like this for a long time mother, and now I get to experience it." Galaxior then walked up to his wife and daughter and gave them both a bear-hug, while bawling his eyes out, while Queen Faust stood there wiping a tear out of her eye. Suddenly, a clock's bell went off and Luna said, "Well, I better go to the ceremony! I see you in a couple of minutes sister!" Luna then teleported out of the room, on her way to the throne room. Cadence, now done with Celestia's hair, said, "Well Auntie, what do you think?" Celestia gasped in amazement at the hairstyle Cadence gave her. "Cadence....I don't know what to say but, thank you." Celestia said. Cadence warmly smiled and said, "Don't mention it Aunt Celestia."
Suddenly, a knock broke the silence. After Celestia granted permission to enter, one of her guards entered to tell her if she's ready. Celestia then stood up and nodded, stating that she was ready. The guard then left, and everyone left Celestia's bedroom to go to the throne room.
A Couple of Minutes Later - Throne Room
Every one of the guests were seated in alphabetical order, something Twilight decided upon for the seating arrangements, all waiting in anticipation for the Princess of the Sun to arrive. Standing at the alter was Twilight, with her friends being her bridesmaids and her brother being her 'Man of Honor.' Luna stood in the middle, ready to perform the wedding ceremony. While waiting for Celestia to arrive, Twilight turned to Luna and asked, "So, anything to worry about Luna?" Luna then said, "None of the officers reported anything hostile in the city, unless you count paparazzi to be hostile." Twilight giggled at Luna's joke and looked back the room's entrance door, waiting for Celestia to arrive. She then looked out into the crowd, seeing everyone waiting patiently, even waving to her parents in the crowd.
After a while, Luna looked to Fluttershy, who was with her bird choir, and nodded to her. Everyone became silent and looked to the throne room's entrance. Fluttershy then waved her conductors wand and her birds began to chirp to a soothing tone. Suddenly, the doors opened and out walked the Cutie Mark Crusaders, who Twilight wanted to be the flower girls. Following them was Spike, carrying the rings. He was then followed by Celestia's Maids of Honor, who were her two best royal guards, the castle maid, and two of the castle staff, all whom Celestia felt were great friends to her. Everything went silent, when Fluttershy tapped her wand and had the birds chirp to the bridal march.
The doors opened once more. Everyone was now looking at Celestia, as they awed at her beauty. Twilight herself couldn't believe what she was seeing. Twilight then said, "Celestia looks so....beautiful." Shining Armor looked at his sister and said, "Woah Twilight, don't get wobbly knees now." Twilight smiled at her brother and then looked back at her wife-to-be. As Celestia, being walked down the aisle by Galaxior, was walking past everyone, they all bowed to her. Celestia, who was looking down the whole time, looked up to see Twilight smiling at her. After walking up to the alter, she turned to her father, who proceeded to hug her and give her a kiss on the forehead and went to join Lumina and Queen Faust. Celestia then turned to Twilight and smiled at her. "You look even beautiful then before Twilight." Celestia said quietly. "Your even more beautiful Tia." Twilight said at the same volume.
After Fluttershy ended the bridal march, Luna cleared her throat and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, we are gathered her today, to witness the union of Princess Celestia and Twilight Sparkle." Luna continued, "Throughout the history of Equestria, there was never such a love like this. What started as a simple friendship, blossomed into a love so strong, none can overcome it." "These two have made it through many challenges, trials and tribulations, to have them reach such a commitment such as this. I believe that both brides have written their own vows."
Celestia put her hand onto Twilight's and said, "Twilight, when I watched over you as a young girl, you were full of untapped knowledge and had the determination to overcome any problem, now I stand to see you as a mature young woman, who I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Not a dry eye was in the room once Celestia finished her vows.
Twilight then put her hand on Celestia's and said, "Celestia, as young girl living here in Canterlot, I saw you as someone I wanted to be like, someone as kind, compassionate, strong, and determined. I was at first confused with my true feelings for you, but now, in front of everyone, I say I want to spend the rest of my life with you by my side, through thick and thin." Everyone was now very teary eyed once Twilight finished her vows.
Luna then wiped of her eyes and said, "Ahem..anyway...Spike, may we have the rings please?" Spike nodded and held out the rings as Luna levitated them to Twilight and Celestia. "Do you, Twilight Sparkle, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" Luna said to Twilight. Twilight, with tears in her eyes, said "I do!" Luna then turned to Celestia and said, "Now do you, Princess Celestia, take Twilight to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" Celestia, with all the seriousness in her voice, said, "I most defiantly do!" Luna then gave them each their rings and first turned to Twilight. "Twilight," Luna said, "please repeat after me." "With this ring." Luna said. "With this ring." Twilight repeated. "I do the wed." said Luna. "I do the wed." Twilight repeated as she placed a gold wedding bond with Celestia and Twilight's cutie marks engraved upon it on Celestia's finger. "Celestia," Luna said to Celestia, "repeat the same thing." "With this ring." "With this ring." "I do the wed." "I do the wed." and Celestia placed a wedding bond with the same engraving on Twilight's finger.
"Before I make this final, if their is anyone who wishes to say why these two should not be wed, speak now, or forever hold your peace." Luna said to the crowd. Everyone stayed silent, so silent you could hear a pin drop. Luna then turned to Twilight and Celestia and said, "Then by the power invested by me, Princess Luna, I now hear by pronounce you, wife and..uh..wife, you may now kiss the bride." Celestia and Twilight then both lifted up their veils and Twilight swooped Celestia by the waist and gave her a passionate, but soft, kiss, which Celestia returned with a stronger one. The crowd all stood up and clapped and cheered louder unlike anything ever seen before.
Suddenly, the cheering stop as a large white light pierced the room. The light was coming from Twilight, who was then being lifted up into the air as magic started swirling around her. Suddenly, a large white light blasted throughout the room, and as it faded, everyone was looking at Twilight, who was getting back on her feet, looking dazed and confused at what just happened. Just as Twilight was starting to see straight, she felt a surge of magic in her body she had never felt before. It felt a lot more stronger than her regular magic, heck, any magic she has witnessed, other than.....an Immortal's magical prowess. Twilight then turned to see Luna was smiling ever higher than usual. Twilight asked, "Luna...what happen?" Celestia also asked, "Yes sister, what was that?" Luna then said, "Well, considering all of the help I've given you two throughout your relationship, and as a thank you to Twilight for freeing me from my Nightmare Moon persona.......I gave Twilight the whole package.....she is now, magically and some ways physically, an Immortal." Celestia and Twilight's faces when from shock to full on happiness as they both tackled Luna and gave her a big bear hug.
After letting her go, all three looked out the now calmed down crowd and Luna said, "May I now present you, Mrs. and Mrs. Twilight Sparkle." Luna then levitated a crown that looked simmiler to the Element of Magic over Twilight's head and placed it down on to her and said, "And may I also wish to present you, Princess Twilight Sparkle!" The crowd hollered and hooped, bawled and cheered as loud as they can, as Twilight and Celestia ran down the aisle, with confetti and rice thrown at them. Everyone followed them out to the royal gardens for the reception.
The gardens and the courtyard were decked out in streamers all colored after Celestia and Twilight's hair colors. The floral arrangements were a mix of Lavender and White Roses and Golden Lilies. The seating arrangements were done also in alphabetical order, sans the families of the brides and the bridesmaids and the Maid and Man of Honor. The wedding party all entered following the now wedded brides. First came the dinner, which was cooked by the castles kitchen staff. Everyone agreed that the food was perfectly cooked and everyone enjoyed. Then came the time to cut the wedding cake. The cake itself was a white and chocolate three stacked cake, decked with white icing and gold and purple icing shaped into flowers and adorned with candied flowers. After cutting the first slice, Celestia smashed her piece into Twilight face, which made everyone laugh. Twilight responded by taking a flower icing and putting it on Celestia's nose, which had everyone chuckle as Celestia picked it off and smeared it on Twilight's mouth.
Once that was done, it was time for the couple to have their first dance. Pinkie Pie, who served as the DJ of the reception, went to the microphone and said, "I hope everyone is having a fun time tonight! Now, our happy couple are going to have the first dance." Everyone parted as Celestia and Twilight walked out on to the center of the courtyard as Pinkie put the record on to the record player. Twilight and Celestia began dancing as soon as the song started. Although they spun and twirled a bit, they both stuck together, quietly dancing. Twilight then looked up at her new wife and said, "Well, here we are." Celestia looked down at Twilight and said, "Student and teacher." "Now were wives." Twilight finished. "Now we can look towards to the future." said Celestia. Twilight smiled and said, "True, but we will do it together, through thick and thin." Celestia smiled and her and Twilight kissed as the onlookers made a collective "Awww." and clapped as they bowed to each other and finished their dance.
Once they finished their dance, Celestia and Twilight danced with their respective fathers, which caused many a wet eye at the reception. After that, everyone began to talk, mingle, and dance, while Twilight and Celestia went around to talk to everyone as they all gave their congratulations on their marriage. The Mane Five walked up to the newlyweds and gave their congrats to them. "Gotta tell ya Twi, you got me choked up when you and Celestia were saying your vows to each other." said Applejack. "You two were so cute during your dance!" shouted Pinkie Pie. "Heh, I have to admit, you guys really did get the old waterworks going on me." Rainbow Dash said in her cocky attitude. Twilight smiled and said, "Thanks girls, but you all have yourselves to thank. If it weren't for you girls....well...mostly it was Pinkie....but still, today really wouldn't have happened." The Mane Five then gave Twilight a warm hug and went back to socialize.
Twilight and Celestia's families then walked up to them and Twilight and Celestia's mothers give them each a hug. Twilight Velvet then spoke up and said, "Well...my little girl is now all grown up." Lumina then said, "Your not the only one who feels that way Velvet." Night Light then said, "What else can we say....both are girls are married, and me and Velvet's daughter is a princess. What more can we say?" Twilight then looked down and Celestia said, "Twilight...what's wrong?" Twilight then said, "Well....it's about being an Immortal...that means that I will out live everyone." Celestia could tell by the look on Twilight's face that she didn't really think it through. Celestia then looked back up to see Luna, who was turned away from Celestia and Twilight. Celestia then went over to Luna and said, "It's alright Luna....I know what you were trying to do....there actually nothing wrong with this." Luna then thought about what Celestia said and smiled, but Twilight looked confused. Queen Faust then walked up to Twilight and said, "I can tell you're confused, so let me explain. While you will live forever, that doesn't mean you cannot see your loved ones again Twilight." Twilight then thought it through, and then her expression went from worry to happiness in seconds.
Twilight then gave her parents and her in-laws a big hug. "Well," Twilight said, "even in death...we will all still be one huge family." Suddenly, their bittersweet moment was interrupted by a voice shouting, "LOOK EVERYONE! THE PROPHETS WERE RIGHT! QUEEN FAUST AND THE FIRST ONES HAVE RETURNED TO OUR REALM!" Everyone turned to find a group of people wearing white cloaks and yarn hats. Queen Faust groaned in frustration and said, "Um, excuse me, me and my children being here is not a sign meaning the world is ending!" Twilight then said, "Wait, you know those guys." Queen Faust, in a more annoyed tone, responded, "Yes I do Twilight. They are a bunch of cultists who think that if me and Lumina and Galaxior return on a specific date, that means the 'world will be rejuvenated in brimstone and ash' or something stupid like that." Lumina then said, "My mother is right! We are just here for our daughters wedding." The cult leader gasped and said, "Wait! That means another prophesy has been fulfilled!" The cult then cheered and whooped. This prompted Queen Faust to crack her knuckles and say, "Excuse me everyone, I have some 'wrathing' I need to do on some idiots." The cult noticed that Queen Faust was getting angry and was coming towards them, so they all ran away, with Queen Faust giving chase, shouting, "GET BACK HERE YOU IDIOTS!!!!!" Twilight, Celestia, the Sparkles, and Lumina and Galaxior stood their bewilder and went back to the reception wondering what had just happened.
2 Hours Later
After the celebrations, it was time for Twilight and Celestia to go prepare for their honeymoon to the sunny islands of Haywaii. But before they could leave, Celestia stood up and made an announcement. "My fellow guests and subjects, I would like to personally thank you for celebrating this momentous occasion." Everyone then clap and cheered until Celestia put her hand up and continued. "However, I would like to say that when me and my wife return from our honeymoon....I will not return to Canterlot." Everyone gasped at the news. Celestia continued and said, "I will be moving to live with my wife in Ponyville, but this doesn't mean that I will be lax on my duties as a princess of Equestria. I just want to live a more....homely feel, you know."
Celestia then walked towards Luna, looked back to the crowd and said, "However, Canterlot will still need a princess to watch over, so I am also announcing that Princess Luna will have full reign of Canterlot." Luna then looked toward her sister and said, "But..but why?" Celestia replied, "Well....I think it's your time little sister. After the gift you bestowed to Twilight, think of this as a thank you to that and everything you've done for me and her. So, what do you say...will you do it?" "B-b-but what if it doesn't work out? What if I fail Canterlot...Equestria....you?" Luna stammered with tears in her eyes. Celestia then proceeded to wipe the tears of her sister's face and says, "I believe you little sister. You have the courage and strength to do this." Luna looked down for a second, but then looked back up to her sister, smiling. "Yes, I accept this duty to protect Canterlot on my own." Luna said with all of her confidence. Everyone cheered as Celestia cast a spell on Luna's crown, which then turned into a crown much like Celestia's, but with a style that fit's Luna.
Twilight and Celestia both ran to the carriage that will take them back to Twilight's...no...their castle in Ponyville. But before entering it, Celestia threw the bouquet over her head, and turned to see who would be next to be married. All of the single females were waiting for the bouquet to land, with Rarity the most impatient. However, the bouquet landed in the hands of both Applejack and Rainbow Dash. "Oh my Faust!" Pinkie shouted, "That means that you two are the next to get married! Hooray!" Rainbow Dash was confused until Applejack tapped her on the shoulder and said. "Umm, Rainbow, remember earlier today when I said I could pop the question any day now?" Rainbow Dash blushed a bit as she thought to her self, "Oh boy." Rarity then nudged Rainbow on the shoulder and said, "Um, Rainbow, aren't you forgetting something?" Rainbow snapped back to reality and said, "Huh...oh right! Hold that thought Jackie." Rainbow then ran faster than usual and went to put on her rusty-trusty jet pack and flew fast to create a Sonic Rainboom. As she did this, she said to herself, "Now this, was the BEST. WEDDING. EVER!"
Once the Rainboom covered the skyline of Canterlot, the carriage flew the scene, as Twilight and Celestia waved to the crowd and said to goodbye to everyone. Celestia then turned to Twilight and said, "Well...now a new chapter in our lives has opened." Twilight then put her hands on Celestia's and said, "But we will be through it...together forever." Celestia smiled and her and Twilight kissed passionately. While kissing, Twilight could feel Celestia's hand moving down to her dresses zipper. Twilight pulled out of the kiss and said, "Whoa whoa, save some of that for the honeymoon." Celestia blushed and chuckled lightly, and put her head on Twilight's shoulder, and Twilight put her head on Celestia's. They both sat there, in each others embrace. After today, they knew things can only get better from here on out. Sure there might be challenges along the way, but they will get through them all....together.
Celestia awoke on chilly morning, to raise the sun of course. However, as she was getting out of bed, she was stopped by someone grabbing on to her hand. "Don't get up just yet," a young voice said, "I was in the middle of the best sleep I had in years." Celestia smiled warmly and went to kiss her new wife, Twilight Sparkle. "Good morning to you to honey." said Celestia. Twilight smiled and replied, "Morning Celestia....don't you have something to do?" Celestia smiled and with a wave of her hand, rose the sun to another great day. "Another day begins...and a new day for us starts today." said Celestia to Twilight. Twilight then gets up and goes down stairs and enters the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Two Hours Later
After packing up their belongings, Celestia and Twilight, along with their friends and family, waited for the carriage to take the newlyweds to the Haywaiian Islands. While waiting, Twilight walked up to her friends and said, "While me and Celestia are gone, we need someone to watch the place for us, so I made individual lists of items that are need to be done." As Twilight began explaining to her friends what they needed to do, Celestia was busy talking to Luna. "Now Luna," said Celestia, "I expect you to take good care of Equestria while me and Twilight are on our honeymoon." "Don't worry Celestia, everything will be under control." Luna said in a confident tone. Celestia then said, "Well, you know how hard it was ruling alone for a thousand years." Luna, blushing, replied, "Yea, don't remind me about that. But at least I got good practice when I was taking over your daytime duties that one time." Celestia rolled her eyes in amusement, remembering when Luna took over for her during the day, with some...'hilarious' results.
After a while of waiting, the carriage had finally arrived. Twilight and Celestia gave their friends and family hugs, placed their luggage in to the carriage's compartment, entered it and the carriage soon flew into the skies.
A Couple Hours Later
After a good chunk of time passed, the carriage finally landed on the beautiful Haywaiian islands. Once Celestia and Twilight departed the carriage, they were soon greeted by the mayor of the islands, Suntan Punch, who welcomed them to the islands and he escorted them to the hotel they were going to stay at. As they walked down the streets, the islands inhabitants began to notice the royal married couple. Soon, everyone went up to them and congratulated them until Celestia and Twilight reached the hotel.
Once inside, the two Immortals marveled at the sight of the hotel's lobby, but then went straight to the check-in desk. Once up there, Twilight said, "Hello, room for two please." "Oh! Princess Celestia, Princess Twilight, we've been expecting you two. Here you two go, the key to the Honeymoon Suite. Enjoy your stay, also, congratulations your majesties on your marriage!" , the receptionist said as she handed over Twilight the room key. "Thank you!" ,Twilight replied. The hotel employees and some of the guards, who were there to protect the princesses, helped Celestia and Twilight with their belongings as they went straight to the elevator.
After a while, Celestia and Twilight had finished unpacking as they began to settle down in their hotel room. As they lied next to each other, Twilight turned to Celestia and said, "So...what do you want to do first?" Celestia smiled and said, "What, no list of things you had planed for us." "Well, I thought that we could take turns doing stuff together." Twilight replied. Celestia then sat up and looked outside, noticing they there wasn't a single cloud in the sky. "Well," said Celestia, "it is a beautiful day outside, and I've heard the beaches here on the islands are beautiful. So, how about a quiet day at the beach." Twilight then said, "That sounds like a good idea. Let me just get my swimsuit on."
Twilight then went to her suitcase and pull out her swimsuit, which was a purple one-piece, and entered the bathroom to change. When Twilight opened back the door, she then said, "Well, what do you...." only for her jaw to drop when she got a glimpse of her wife. Celestia was wearing a gold and white bikini with a gold skirt around her waist. "Um, Twilight...you've got a little...something going down your face." Celestia said to Twilight. Twilight then snapped back to reality and noticed that she had succumbed to a nose-bleed. Twilight blushed and said, "Heheh, I guess I wasn't expecting you to look so...hot in your swimsuit." Celestia then gave her a sly smirk and said, "Don't worry dear, I've got a lot of surprises ready for our honeymoon." Twilight smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, the beach isn't going to enjoy itself!" Celestia smiled and her and Twilight went on their way to the beach on the side of the hotel.
The island's beaches, as Celestia said, were indeed some of the most beautiful in the world. Twilight and Celestia were walking down the beachhead as the sound of the waves crashing made the moment very romantic. "How 'bout this spot. Sunlight is perfect and it's right next to that cliff formation." said Twilight. Celestia giggled as she put down a picnic blanket on the warm sand. "What?" said Twilight. Celestia then turns to Twilight and says, "Nothing dear...just that your cute when you go and organize stuff." Twilight then blushes and says, "Well, that's one of the perks of being me." "I couldn't agree more." Celestia said as she walked up to Twilight and poked her nose. Twilight smiled and went to sit down with Celestia, enjoying the calming waves.
A while later, Celestia decided to sun bath a bit, so Twilight decided to pull a small little prank on Celestia. Twilight went into her tote-bag and pulled out the bottle of sun tan lotion. Using her magic, she changed the contents of it so that when Celestia decides to put it on, it would block out any sun rays. "Scientific and funny! Oh Twilight, you...well....funny girl." Twilight said to herself as she untwisted the cap to the bottle of sun tan lotion. After 'fixing' the lotion, Twilight quickly put it back in the bag and Celestia grabbed it and began to put it on herself. "Hey Celly, I'm going up the beach to look for seashells, you won't mind do you." said Twilight. Celestia looked at Twilight and said, "Go ahead, this might take a while." "Perfect, after about an hour or so, Celestia will still be her natural pigment!" Twilight thought to herself. "Alright, I be back in a bit." Twilight responded as she began to walk up the beach.
Twilight spent a good hour looking for seashells when she checked her watch and realized that, well, a whole hour passed. Twilight snickered as she began to walk back to her and Celestia's spot, thinking that Celestia will still be what she was an hour ago. Twilight got closer, but stopped as her jaw dropped and she saw that Celestia was now a teeny-bit darker than what she was a hour ago. Celestia turned to see her wife looking dumbfounded, to which she says, "Nice try honey, but living with a sister like Luna for over a thousand and twenty-two years kind-of makes certain pranks useless against me. But still, nice try." Twilight blushed and sat back down next to Celestia. "Guess I have to get better don't I?" said Twilight. Celestia turned to Twilight and said, "Mmm...a little, but not a lot." Twilight smiled and kissed Celestia on the cheek. The spent the rest of their time on the beach in each others arms.
Later That Night
After a nice day at the beach, Twilight and Celestia went to the island's most prestigious eatery, 'The Royal Pineapple', for a quiet dinner. After being seated, Twilight and Celestia began discussing what they were going to do after they returned from their honeymoon. "Well, I've already made a list of things that need to be done." said Twilight. "Well, what do they include." Celestia replied. Twilight then said, "Well....I'll just save them for when we get back." "Well, there is one thing I do want to talk about." Celestia said. Twilight looked at her and replied, "Well, what's on your mind?" "Remember back on our first date, you know, when our relationship was still a secret." said Celestia. "Of course Celly, I'd never forget that, but why do you ask?" said Twilight. Celestia then said, "Well, remember when I asked you if you've ever wanted to start a family." Twilight knew where Celestia was going and said, "Oh, well, to be completely honest Celestia, I really do want to start a family. I just don't think I ready though to be a mom." "Oh come on Twilight, what about Spike? He was sort of like training for motherhood." Twilight then thought it through and remembered the way she watched over her assistant/adopted brother like she was his own mother. Twilight then smiled and said, "OK, you got me there. Though, it would be nice to hear the little pitter patter of feet around the castle. Heck, maybe will be lucky while on our honeymoon." Twilight then went back to her notepad and jotted down a few things, but didn't notice Celestia making a sly look on her face.
After a nice meal and a slow dance at the hotel ballroom, Celestia and Twilight retreated back to their room. "Well, today was, so to say, magical." Twilight said as she yawned. Celestia replied, "We do have another four days to ourselves you know." "True, but like you said, it's to ourselves." said Twilight. "Oh," said Celestia excitedly, "Luna sent us a letter about how things are going in Equestria." Twilight then said, "Well lets see how she's doing." Celestia then opened the letter and it said:
To my sister and sister-in-law,
Things are going smoothly here in Equestria. However, during my session with the Tribunal, while the court was busy discussing zoning restrictions. Discord popped into the room and made it rain milk duds, to which my colleagues were furious. But, after a stern talking to, we got things back on track. Other than that, my first day as Canterlot's sole protector has been going quite well, but I still don't know how you dealt a whole 24 hour schedule sister. As for Ponyville, Twilight's friends have kept the castle very clean....a little too clean I must add. Other than that, everything is going well. Can't wait to see you again soon!
Your sister,
Princess Luna
Twilight giggled a bit, but her and Celestia were happy to know that Luna has everything under control. As the young couple retreated under the covers, Twilight says, "Hey Celestia, while we were dancing, you were looking at me very...well...lusty, care to explain that." "Let's just say I have something planed for our last night on our honeymoon dear, I think you might like it." Celestia replied. Twilight gave her a wife a confused look, but shrugged it off, possibly not wanting to ruin the surprise. "Well, good night Celestia" said Twilight. "Good night Twilight." The royal couple began to slip into a goodnight sleep, with Twilight thinking about the future, but Celestia thinking about the little surprise she has in store for Twilight on the last night of their honeymoon.
It had been a pleasant honeymoon for Twilight and Celestia, for they went bungee-jumping, explored the island's vast caves (to which Twilight mapped them out to an excruciating detail,) enjoy some quiet time at the hotel spa, and went para-gliding, to which Twilight got a little woozy, but came out of it feeling fine. Now it was the last day of their honeymoon, but Celestia was very secretive throughout the day, which made Twilight extremely suspicious, but kept it in the back of her mind, unbeknownst to her that Celestia was planing something very....romantic later that night.
Later That Night
Twilight and Celestia were enjoying a quiet evening at one of the island's restaurants, until Twilight noticed that Celestia was looking at her very....'lusty.' "Umm, Celestia," Twilight said confusingly, "your looking all....lovingly." "What's wrong with that Twilight. I find nothing wrong with looking at my beautiful wife." Celestia said in her sweet tone. Twilight blushed, twirled her hair, and replied, "I guess there's nothing wrong with that." They stayed silent for the rest of their dinner, but Twilight kept looking at Celestia puzzlingly.
After dinner, Twilight and Celestia returned to their room. Twilight sat down on the bed and breathed in. She then looked up to see Celestia walking towards her. Twilight sat there, mesmerized by her wife. Once she was near her, Celestia sat on Twilights lap and began to rub her shoulders. Twilight suddenly felt warm and her body calmed, until Celestia began rubbing her hands on Twilight's breasts. Twilight began feeling more warm. Celestia then suddenly planted her lips on to Twilight's and began making out with her. Twilight then pulled Celestia down and the two Immortals began passionately kissing. After about a minute of kissing, Celestia pulled away from Twilight and said, "Sorry Twilight, but I need to slip into something more....'appropriate.' She then got up and went to her suitcase and pulled out a black bag. She then winked at Twilight and walked into the bathroom and said, "I won't be in here for long." Celestia then closed the door, but from the inside she said, "Umm, Twilight, would you mind closing your eyes." Twilight, starting to realize what was going on, smiled and agreed and closed her eyes, thinking about what her wife was going to do to her.
NOTE: This is your last warning peeps! Turn around now if your squeamish.....everyone else....get those tissues and lotion!
As Twilight had her eyes close for about a minute or so, a voice rang out saying, "OK Twilight....you can open them now..." Twilight obeyed her wife's voice and opened her eyes. As Twilight opened her eyes, her jaw dropped as low as it can and her eyes widened as far as they could. Twilight had to slap herself to make sure what she was seeing was real. Celestia stood in front of the bathroom door, wearing white lingerie and white evening gloves. Celestia looked at Twilight with a seductive look on her face. She then noticed the Twilight's nose was bleeding and giggled. "Well well," Celestia said in a seductive tone, "seems like someones excited." Twilight then felt the blood from her nose running down her face, to which she quickly wiped it off, smiling awkwardly. Celestia then began walking towards Twilight, her hips swaying as she did. Twilight began to start feeling warm again as she watched her wife walk towards her.
Celestia once again sat down on Twilight lap and began kissing down her neck. Twilight moaned as Celestia planted each kiss on her neck. Celestia then put her hands on the zipper on Twilight's dress and began to undress her. Once the dress was off, Twilight grabbed her wife and began kissing her with great passion. Celestia took this moment to place her hand on Twilight's womanhood and began rubbing it gently. Twilight stopped kissing her wife and began moaning loudly. "Looks like somebody is already wet." Celestia said as she felt Twilight's juices soaking her panties. As she stopped rubbing at Twilight's clit, Twilight took this opportunity. to pull down Celestia's bra and began sucking on her breasts. Celestia suddenly bit her lip as Twilight was licking her nipple. Celestia then pushed Twilight on to the bed and began taking off her bra and panties, as Twilight did the same thing. "Are you ready for this Twilight." Celestia said discarding her soaked underwear. "Go ahead Celly, I been waiting for this." Celestia then knelt near Twilight's virgin wall. She then spread Twilight's legs out and began licking her clit. Twilight started moaning loudly as Celestia moved her tongue wildly around her clit. Twilight's then locked her legs around Celestia's head as Celestia proceeded to suck on Twilight's vagina. Twilight then shouted, "Celestia....I about to....about to cum!" Celestia then proceeded to lick on Twilight's clit faster and more aggressively, until Twilight shouted loudly and orgasmed all over Celestia's face.
Celestia smiled and licked Twilight's juices off her face. Twilight was breathing heavily when Celestia crawled next to her as she locked lips with her wife, to which Twilight pulled out of to catch her breath. "That was amazing Celestia," Twilight said with a tired tone, "your amazing with that tongue of yours." Celestia giggled at Twilight's complement and said, "Thanks dear, I love to please you." Twilight then got up and said, "Well, good thing I packed some 'toys' for us to use just in case we were doing this." Just as Twilight was opening up her suitcase, a bright light brighten the room and as Twilight made a confused look. She suddenly felt something large on the lower part of her body. She looked down and shouted a shocked screech. What was between her legs was....a penis.
Twilight couldn't believe what she was seeing. She then began to stroke it and prod with it, just to make sure it was real. She turned to see Celestia smirking seductively and put two and two together. "Let me guess....I was one of your surprises." Twilight said in a smart-Alec tone. Celestia laughed to herself and got back up and walked towards Twilight. "Go and sit on the bed Twilight, I want to show you something." Celestia said in her seductive tone. Twilight obeyed and sat down on the bed.
Celestia then knelt down and began to stroke Twilight's magic penis. Twilight began to moan, as Celestia then began to lick up and down her penis. "Mmmmm," Celestia moaned, "Your dick tastes incredible dear." Twilight began to breath and said, "Well don't stop....keep going!" Celestia noded and began to give Twilight a blowjob. Twilight moaned loudly as she felt Celestia's mouth move up and down her magiked shaft. "Celestia....I'm going to cum again!" Twilight shouted. Celestia then smiled at her wife and stopped sucking on Twilight's cock. "Wha...why did you stop?" Twilight said confusingly. Celestia giggled and said, "Just wait dear." She then put Twilight's cock between her breasts and began motioning them up and down. Twilight was now in bliss as she moaned loudly and grabbed the bed sheets. Twilight made one final loud moan as her seed launched out of her penis and onto Celestia's breasts and face.
Twilight once again panted and said, "Dang Celestia, you sure know what you are doing." "Well, when your as old as me, you know a few things down the line, especially as times change." She the stood up and grabbed Twilight by the hand and got her back up. Celestia then laid on the bed and spread her legs out, revealing her wet pussy. "Go ahead Twilight," said Celestia, "I'm all yours." Twilight smirked at Celestia and flipped Celestia on her stomach. Celestia gave Twilight a confused look, only for Twilight to reply, "Sorry Tia, but I've been wanting to do this for a while, penis or not." She then softly inserted her penis into Celestia's ass. Celestia moaned loudly as Twilight began thrusting slowly. "P-Please Twilight....go faster....a bit more....." Celestia said in ecstasy. Twilight obeyed and thrusted even faster, which made the Sun Princess moan even louder. Celestia then shouted, "Twilight....I...I'm gonna cum!" Twilight smirked and began spanking Celestia's butt, which made the Immortal princess moan as loud as she could. After a one final thrust, Twilight exploded her seed into Celestia's ass, and falling limp, with a silly look on her face.
In between pants, Twilight managed to say, "Dam Celestia, you sure have a tight butt." Celestia, also panting in exhaustion, replied, "I'm not even letting that bother me Twi." After catching her breath, Twilight then turned Celestia on her back and said, "You sure your ready for this Tia?" Celestia smiled and replied, "I've been waiting for this all day Twilight, of course I'm ready." Twilight smiled and lubed up her dick and parted Celestia's legs, revealing her clit once more. Twilight then slowly placed her penis into Celestia's vagina and began thrusting slowly once more. Celestia then pulled Twilight into her and said, "Forget about going slow Twilight....give me everything you've got." Twilight smirked and began thrusting faster and faster, making Celestia moan louder and louder. Twilight then began to play with Celestia's breasts and started sucking on them, making Celestia even warmer then before. Twilight then stopped sucking on Celestia's breast and began to lock lips with her. As they kissed, Celestia began moaning louder and louder. Celestia pulled away from Twilight and said, "Twilight! I'm going to cum!" Twilight then asked, "Should I pull out?" "It's fine! Let me feel your seed Twilight!" Celestia shouted. She then pulled Twilight into another kiss and the two began furiously making out, with Twilight now thrusting even faster. With one last thrust, both Twilight and Celestia moaned loudly as they both orgasmed.
Twilight then rolled off Celestia and the both of them began to pant loudly. "Wow!" said Twilight, "That was...amazing!" Celestia proceeded to look at Twilight and said, "You weren't bad yourself Twilight." Twilight blushed, but then remembered one more thing. "So....how long will I have 'this.'" Twilight said pointing to her magic penis. "Don't worry honey, it will go away after about four hours." Celestia replied. Twilight then yawned and proceeded to pull the wet bed sheets onto her and Celestia. "Gee Celestia," said Twilight, " tonight was probably one of the best nights I've ever had." "I knew you would say that." Celestia replied. Twilight then sighed sadly and said, "Suck's we didn't get to film this romantic evening." Celestia smiled and said, "That's where your wrong Twilight." and she proceeded to point towards a camera in the corner that had been filming their night of passion. Twilight made a dumbfounded look on her face and looked back at Celestia.
She then smiled at her wife and kissed her on the forehead. "Your silly, you know that." Twilight said jokingly. Celestia rolled her eyes and said, "You know me...a silly princess." Twilight yawned once more and said, "Well, I guess it's time for us to go to bed now." "Indeed it has Twi." Celestia replied. Then both lied down, holding each other close to another. "Well," Twilight said, "goodnight Mrs. Sparkle." "Pleasant dreams, Mrs. Sparkle." Celestia replied. They both then fell asleep in each others arms, with there sent covering the room, both thing about what the future might hold.
After returning from a wonderful and romantic honeymoon, Celestia and Twilight assumed their royal duties. While it was exhausting, mostly for Twilight who was trying to get the hang of being a princess, they both worked through it. However, one day, a amazing thing happened that will change Celestia and Twilight's lives forever.
It was early in the morning and Twilight Sparkle was busy in the kitchen preparing breakfast for her and Celestia. Twilight decided to wake Celestia up, considering she was still sleeping at the time Twilight got up, and get herself and Celestia ready for the rest of the day. "Wakey Wakey Tia!" Twilight exclaimed. "I made you some of your...." Twilight then stopped and saw that Celestia wasn't in the bed. Twilight began to ponder where her wife could be, when the silence was broken from a noise coming from the bathroom. Twilight rushed to see what the noise was and was shocked to see it was locked. Twilight pressed her ear on the bathroom door and heard what sounded like someone was barfing. Twilight then used her magic to unlock the door and, once inside, was shocked to find Celestia kneeling down near the toilet, with a sickening look on her face.
Twilight rushed over to her wife and said, "Oh my Faust! Celestia, are you alright?" Celestia looked up at Twilight and said, "I'm fine now, but when I got up this morning...I felt very...woozy. My stomach was flaming like crazy and my temperature might have gone up." Twilight then placed her hand on Celestia's forehead and found that it was still a little warm. "Look, let's just get you back to bed." said Twilight with a worried tone in her voice. Celestia then stood up and said, "Twilight, I'm fine. It was just a little morning sickness, nothing to worry about." "Alright Celestia. But if this problem continues, I'm taking you to the doctor. You got that!" said Twilight sternly. Celestia then Pinkie Promised and her and Twilight went down to eat some breakfast, but Twilight continued to worry over her wife's health.
A couple of days had past, but Twilight's worries grew as Celestia continued to have stomach problems and was still throwing up in the morning. After the 8th morning, Twilight made an appointment for Celestia with Doctor Stable to check to see if Celestia was OK. The day before Celestia's appointment, Twilight was hanging out with her friends at Sugarcube Corner, who were all discussing Celestia's constant morning sickness.
"I don't know girls, I just hope Celestia is alright." Twilight said dishearteningly. Rainbow Dash then said, "C'mon Twilight, Celestia's been in tougher situations than this." "I agree Twilight," Applejack replied, "the princess ain't gonna let an upset stomach be her downfall." Twilight sighed and said, "Thanks girls for the encouraging words." "No prob Twi!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "Still, I'm still hopeful it's nothing serious." Twilight said as she laid her head on the table. "Or Celestia is having a baby!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed cheerfully. Everyone then stared at Pinkie Pie awkwardly. "What?" Pinkie Pie said confusingly. "Pinkie Pie," said Applejack, "that has got to be one of the silliest things ya'll ever said." "But it could be true. I mean..." But before Pinkie Pie could finish, Twilight placed her finger and said, "Look Pinkie, I don't think that morning sickness is enough to prove that a woman is pregnant.....but I'll make a mental note of that....if your right of course."
The Next Day - Ponyville Hospital
Twilight and Celestia sat in the hospital waiting room silently, both with worried looks on their faces. Twilight then smiled at her wife, to make her feel a bit more chipper. Celestia smiled back, but with a hint of her worries still within her. Suddenly, the silence was broken by Nurse Redheart, who led the princesses to Doctor Stable's office.
Once inside, Doctor Stable ushered them to his desk. After shaking his hand, Twilight began to explain Celestia's constant morning sickness. "Hmm, that's interesting." said Doctor Stable. He then looked at Celestia and said, "Excuse me your majesty, but I'm going to need a urine sample." Both Celestia and Twilight looked at each other confusingly and then looked back at Doctor Stable. "We don't understand, why do you need a urine sample?" Twilight said confusingly. "I have a hunch, but I need to make sure my hunch is correct." said Doctor Stable.
So after an hour, Celestia managed to give Doctor Stable a urine sample and he told them to come back the next day for the test results. After saying their goodbyes, Celestia looked at Twilight with a worrying look as they walked out of the hospital. Twilight then gave her wife an encouraging smile and said, "What ever is wrong with you, we will get through it together." The two princesses hugged and walked back home happily.
One Day Later
Celestia and Twilight were once again in Doctor Stable's office, awaiting the results of the tests done on Celestia's urine sample. "Well Doc," Twilight said with a shaky voice, "give it to us straight. Is Celestia going to be alright?" Doctor Stable smiled and said, "She's going to be fine Princess." Both Celestia and Twilight sighed in relief, until Doctor Stable said, "In fact, she's more than fine." Twilight and Celestia looked at him with confusion and Celestia asked, "Whatever do you mean Doctor?" Doctor Stable smiled and said, "Well, when I was doing tests, I noticed an increase of hGC...I think you two know the rest."
Twilight and Celestia then gave puzzled looks at each other, when suddenly, they both had shocked expressions on their faces. Twilight then turned to Doctor Stable and said, "C-Can it be...is Celestia..." Doctor Stable laughed and said, "Congratulations your majesties. Your going to be parents!" Twilight gasped loudly and Celestia placed her hand on her mouth. Tears then started to run down their faces as Twilight hugged Celestia. "I can't believe it! We're going to have a baby!" Twilight said happily. "Thank you for telling us Doctor!" said Celestia. "No problem Princesses. I only hope to see you both again in the coming months." Doctor Stable said cheerfully. Twilight then replied, "You can bet on that!" They then both shook his hand and said their goodbyes and made their way home.
A Couple of Hours Later - Castle of Friendship
Twilight's friends all sat at the Cutie Map, waiting for Twilight and Celestia to come in and tell them some really important news. "Gosh darn it, this is just like when Twilight was planning to ask Celestia to marry her, where is she?" Rainbow Dash said impatiently. "Hush up Rainbow, I'm pretty sure Twilight an' Celestia are doin' something important." said Applejack. "Well, from the letters they sent, it seems really really really really REALLY important!" Pinkie Pie said in her bubbly way. "Oh my...I hope it's nothing bad health wise." Fluttershy said in a worrying way. "Don't worry Fluttershy, If it was something that bad, Twilight and Celestia would have told us." Rarity said in a reassuring tone.
After a while of waiting, the doors behind them opened and Twilight and Celestia walked in, with smiles on their faces. The Mane Five looked the two princesses and began asking questions about why they were call to them. Celestia then put her hand up and all of them went silent. Twilight cleared her throat and said, "Well, as you all know, me and Celestia went back to the doctor's today and...well...you tell them Celly." The Mane Five looked at them awkwardly until Celestia said, "Well...me and Twilight...are going to have a baby." The room went silent, until Pinkie Pie shouted, "A BABY!!!!! THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE A BABY GIRLS!!!!! YAHOOOOOOOO!!!!!" After Pinkie's outburst, the 5 other girls walked up to the two princesses and began to either congratulate them and discussing baby stuff.
"Well dang," said Applejack, "Your the first to get married, now your the first of all of us to start a family Twi." "You sure your not trying to pull something Twilight." said Rainbow Dash questionably. Suddenly Rarity bonked Rainbow Dash and Applejack on the head and said, "Girls, how rude. I for one am happy for Twilight and Celestia. Ooh, I can't wait to start designing baby clothes for the little boy or girl!" Pinkie Pie, meanwhile, was still bouncing off the walls, until she stopped and began thinking up ideas for the next nine months of parties for Twilight and Celestia. Fluttershy then walked up and gave the princesses a huge hug and said, "I'm so happy for you I could just yell in excitement!" Fluttershy then proceeded to yell at a soft volume, followed by a squeak coming out from her as she backed away in embarrassment. Twilight and Celestia then looked at each other and smiled warmly.
Later That Night
We find Twilight laying in bed reading a book, when she hears Celestia walking upstairs into their bedroom. Twilight closed the book and placed it on her dresser, when Celestia entered the room holding a scroll. Twilight then asked, "Say Celestia, who sent you that scroll?" "I wrote to Luna about my pregnancy and let's just say...well....go ahead and read it." Twilight then grabbed the scroll, opened it and began reading it. It said:
To my dear sister,
First and for most...I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M GOING TO BE AN AUNT!!! Secondly, I'm very happy for you and Twilight. From your experience teaching Twilight when she was a little girl Celestia, I'm sure your going to be a great mother, same with Twilight of course (but I would consider Twilight to be the father in the relationship.)
In non baby stuff, Canterlot is doing pretty fine. No unrests (yet....), everything is in line. So yea, nothing else to talk about. I hope I get to see you both again soon.
Your sister/sister-in-law,
Luna P.S. I hope you tell Mother and Father and Twilight's Parents soon, cause the news will notice your "baby bump" sooner or later.
Twilight laughed and said, "Luna's right, we should tell our parents sooner or later." Celestia then replied, "True that, but we will deal with that later." Twilight then said her good nights, and so did Celestia. As they drifted off to sleep, they both imagined being amazing parents to their child/children, also thing about the morrow when they tell their parents the amazing and magical news.
