Hugging doesn't really cure anything. It can help you relax allowing your body to heal itself, though.

You wake up. You feel the soft mattress move around you as you stretch your back muscles. You feel the warm softness of the duvet covering you. You feel the warmth of the hoof resting on your chest. Rainbow Dash, despite her harsh personality, is very interested in cuddling. You feel her move in your embrace.
"Morning," you say, smiling down at her, "How are you?"
"I'm good" She replies, snuggling closer to you.
You lie next to each other for a while, periodically cuddling closer to each other. You turn your head to her, pulling her body closer to you.
"Hey, do you think we need to get breakfast?"
Rainbow cuddles closer to you. "I just want to lay here and cuddle. Food isn't as important."
You pull her close. You both lie on the bed for several hours. You hug her tighter.
"Hey, are you sure you aren't hungry," You say, cuddling closer.
"Your love is all the nourishment I need," She replies, snuggling closer.
You hold her tighter.
She squeezes close to you.
You hug her tighter.
Your ribs crack, and you soon hear hers do the same. Soon, both of you have full sets of broken ribs.
You hold each other closer.
Your skin fuses, connecting the two of you eternally. You pull each other closer. Soon your nervous and respiratory systems link. Your hearts pump blood between your connected bodies.
You both snuggle closer.
Your flesh fuses and contracts. You crush into a rough sphere. You squeeze smaller and smaller. Finally settling smaller than the head of a pin. Your gravitational pull increases significantly, pulling you towards the centre of the earth. The sheets you had been laying on fuses to you, getting pulled in. You stay at the same size. As you start fusing with the bed, the rest of the loose objects; furniture, books etc.; gets pulled towards you. Within half an hour you have merged with the majority of your house. Within an hour, your city has been demolished. Within a week, the earth is no longer there. Instead, there is a ball the size of the head of a pin.
You cuddle Rainbow Dash tighter.
The End.
Rainbow Dash walked to the Golden Oaks library. She had been flying for most of the day. She knocked on the door. Twilight opened it and showed her in.
"Are you excited for what I'm going to show you?"
"Not really," Rainbow replied.
"Oh, you should be. The oldest star in the sky is 23 million light years away, and, by what we currently know, it went supernova 23 million years ago. So, we should be watching a star explode today!"
"Yeah, cool..." Rainbow Dash wanted to see explosions closer up.
Twilight lead Rainbow to the window she used to look at stars.
As she set up the telescope, she heard Rainbow Dash sigh.
"How long until the star goes kablooey?"
"Just wait a second, Dashie."
Rainbow Dash scowled at Twilight. "Only Pinkie can call me that." She said sternly.
"Sorry, Rainbow. I didn't mean to... I thought it was just a nickname."
They stayed silent as Twilight continued setting up the telescope.
"Okay, it's done. The supernova should happen in about half an hour, so I can show you a few constellations if you want."
"Nah, thanks," Rainbow said, looking towards the library, "Hey, I've been wanting to widen my reading. is there anything you could suggest that is kinda like Daring Do?"
"Yeah, I have a list that I was going to give to you. I'll go get it."
After several minutes of the two ponies discussing the pros and cons of each book, a bell rang, signalling that the supernova was going to start.
"Come on, we can talk about the books after." Twilight said, walking briskly towards the telescope.
"You know," Rainbow Dash started, "The way you were talking about 'by what we currently know' and 'we should be watching a star explode' made it seem like it could happen within a few days. How did you get it down to an alarm?"
"The current science has shown a time that is about accurate to a few minutes. We might have to wait for up to an hour."
Rainbow Dash put her eye to the lens. She frowned, looked up, wiped her eyes and looked back.
"Uh, Twi? Is it happening or is the lens just blurry?"
Twilight Sparkle looked up to the sky. she didn't expect to see anything much, but she thought that the supernova would be a little visible.
A quarter of the sky shone like it was day.
"RAINBOW DASH! Stop looking!" she screamed, seeing her friend still squinting through the lens.
"Whoa, it got really bright really quick. I though you wanted me to look, Twi."
"The science said it shouldn't be this bright. something weird is going on." Twilight turned to her bedroom door, "Spike! Come here and take a letter."
Rainbow stood staring at the sky. "I never thought astrology could be this cool. I might need to come over here a little more, Twi."
Spike walked in, bleary eyed, "You said you wouldn't need me. I was finally catching up on the sleep I lost last time you got in trouble. What do you want me to write?"
Twilight stood up in a vaguely regal position, "Dear Princess Celestia. It may have come to your attention that the sky's real messed up. Do something about it, stars are your job. Maybe Luna might need to help, but whatever, just do your royal job and stop us from dying or whatever. Your fearful student, Twilight Sparkle."
Spike re-read the letter, "Twilight, are you sure this is how you want to word it? The Princesses don't react well to this kind of encouragement."
"Spike, I don't care. There is a supernova that is possibly threatening our lives. Send the Faust-damned letter!"
"Fine, bossy," Spike blew green flame onto the parchment, "Done, what now?"
"Aw, dude. It's gone!" Rainbow lamented the passing of the most awesome celestial event she had ever seen.
"WHAT? Where did it go?" Twilight stared at the sky and saw no extra-ordinary brightness, "Rainbow, what exactly happened to it?"
"Well, it was there, real bright, then it got smaller and less bright, and now it's gone. Not much to say, really. it was fun while it lasted, though."
Spike burped up a cloud of glitter, which then became a royal parchment.
"My dearest Twilight," Spike read, with a grin on his face, "it may have come to your attention that the sky is no longer messed up. The brightness was calculated and posted in all current scientific journals. If you had read these, rather than messing up errands for your little peon friends, you would have known. Next time you feel like disrespecting me, please have the courage to do it yourself, rather than having your slave write it. Speaking of which, the human rights council have been talking and we would like to discuss the ethics of a baby servant. We will contact you about this soon. Your LITERAL GOD mentor, Princess Celestia"
Twilight looked at Spike, then to the pile of scientific papers she was stockpiling to binge read. "Aw heck."
"Hey Twi, how come nobody ever told me how cool astrology could be. What this effect called?" Rainbow asked.
"What effect?"
"The one where all the stars seem like they're all getting closer together and bigger around the point where the supernova happened"
"What?" Twilight looked to the sky once more and saw that the effect Rainbow Dash had described was happening. All the stars were getting closer to the point the supernova happened.
"Is that not a known effect? Spike, write it down. Call it the "Rainbow Dash Singularity" effect.
Twilight felt herself getting hotter. no doubt the sun's higher mass was getting pulled towards the black hole that had just occurred.
