New Family (2/2)
“So awesome!” Rainbow Dash rejoiced, spread out her wings and let herself fall back on the soft pillow, pressing the little plushie tightly against her chest. “I didn’t even know that there were Daring Do plushies,” she declared with a lot of enthusiasm in her voice and directed her view at Twilight who was just coming back from the bathroom.
“I told you that they’ll love you.” Twilight widely smiled at the satisfied pegasus and sat down besides her. Twilight, for sure, would never forget the expression Rainbow was carrying on her face and the exaltation in her glimmering magenta eyes the moment the unicorn’s mother gifted her with the cuddly souvenir. “So I didn’t promise you too much I guess?” She let herself sink down at Rainbow’s side and used her magic to turn off the light.
“You could have promised me twice and it still wouldn’t have been enough to describe how great this day would be,” Rainbow happily replied and turned to Twilight. “You got some really awesome parents, you know?” She calmly said with slight suppressed disappointment in her tone since she just realized that she would never be able to return the pleasure of sharing something as precious as a family with Twilight because there was just her and, if you count a pony that had become something of a little sister to her, a certain orange filly who the unicorn already knew.
A few moments of a slightly depressed atmosphere passed until Twilight gently pulled Rainbow Dash into a heart-warming embrace. “Don’t worry about it, you don’t have to return anything to me at all to begin with,” she mildly explained while softly stroking through the other mare’s mane. “You’re already giving much more to me than I could possibly ask for,” She added using a comforting tone.
“It’s just…” For a short moment Rainbow looked up in to Twilight’s caring violet eyes, but averted her view again the second she realized that it perhaps would be inappropriate to already ask the question which was burning on her mind for entire day. Yet, even if Dash didn’t venture to forward her request, Twilight already had a clue what it was about.
“Rainbow...” Twilight soothingly said, gently putting her hoof on Dash’s chin and slowly turned her back so that their views crossed again. “I couldn’t avoid noticing that there was something you wanted to ask them all along,” she continued with a wide, loving smile growing on her muzzle. “I’m absolutely sure that my parents would be more than just fine if Scootaloo and you would call them mom and dad too.”
Rainbow’s eyes widened a bit since she didn’t expect that her thoughts, even if they already were a couple for some months, would be that transparent to Twilight. Now knowing what to say she let her gaze slowly wander down her marefriend’s chest until she got the Daring Do plushie in sight which was placed between them. Looking at the precious gift, she recalled one of the most joyful days of her entire life which were filled by memories she would never forget.
“I think you’re right,” She smiled brightly, her view locked with the miniature of her favorite adventurer, some tears of pure happiness gathering in the corners of her eyes. “Got Smarty Pants?” She playfully asked as she softly pressed her beloved little Daring Do against her chest.
Twilight nodded, stretched out one of her front legs and grabbed her own precious soft toy from the bedside table. Putting Smarty Pants in between Rainbow Dash and herself and right in front of Daring Do, Twilight warped her voice by at least two vocal octaves higher and started jolly speaking, “Hey Daring, want to go on an adventure tonight?”
Both mares chuckled in unison.
“Twilight,” Rainbow Dash sighed with an amused grin on her muzzle. “You know that I’m not the kind of pony who plays with dolls, right?” she asked, but found herself looked at with wide pleading violet sparkling orbs. It didn’t take more than a few seconds until another sigh, yielding, escaped Rainbow’s mouth.
“Sure, got anything in mind?” Rainbow replied looking at the Daring Do plushie and appropriately moved it to empathize her words, proving more than just her own voice acting skills, before she raised her head and got Twilight in view once again. At the sight of her marefriend’s in joy glimmering eyes, Rainbow Dash felt a little heat running across her cheeks because she realized that the unicorn, in fact, was in a more than just playful mood that night.
“I heard that there are two beautiful giant mares who are pulling our strings and that we might be rewarded with a treasure map if we make them kiss,” Twilight lovely explained using Smarty Pants’ imaginary voice what made Rainbow Dash blush even more.
“Count me in,” Rainbow replied with a clearly softened tone and leaned close to Twilight, just leaving a little gap between their muzzles as the other mare’s horn started shimmering in a mild light. With Daring Do and Smarty Pants floating above them, both soft toys enveloped in a mild purple shine, Twilight pulled Rainbow Dash in a tight embrace and closed the little gap between their muzzles, engaging her marefriend in a desire-filled affectionate kiss.
