Previous Chapter

James woke up in Twilight’s house, with all the ponies staring down at him, all with worried expressions. Especially Fluttershy, she almost cried. Until she saw him open his eyes.

“Guys! He’s alive!”

She bursted out, as they all started smiling.

“Yes, I am. And I have a pretty clear idea of what has happened now. I don’t think the nightmares will continue. It’s all gonna be fine now.”

He said, with a relieving feeling in his chest.

Twilight looked at him, smiling.

“Finally we got to the bottom of this! Well, technically we did. Then again. Oh, hay! It doesn’t matter.”

James smiled at Twilight, hugging her, and kissing her right on the lips, she was surprised at first, but relaxed after a few seconds, and even started kissing back.

After stopping, she just stared at him, along with all the others. Everybody surprised.

“Ok. That was unexpected.”

Twilight said. She was still frozen as a block of ice.

“Sorry, I just always wanted to do this.”

James said, blushing, and almost gasping for air, in fear of she’d react after calming down.

She got out of her trance, and kissed him again.

When the kiss was done, she leaned back, and said.

“Ok, I guess I can go with this for a little while longer.”

They all just nodded, and accepted something was happening between them.

It was pretty silent for around 20 seconds, when Pinkie finally broke the silence.

“Well, now that you feel better, maybe we can hold a party for you! A feeling better party just for you! Then we can have cake and streamers, sarsaparilla, and punch and everything!!”

After a while they all started laughing.

“Ow!”

James yelled.

“Huh?! What’s wrong?!”

Twilight asked.

“Oh, it’s nothing, just a gigantic headache, after the whole incident before. I’m really sorry for scaring you all like this. I hope you can forgive me.”

James said, smiling, but with a smidge of sadness.

“Lighten up, it’s ok. You’re not hurt, so we’re all happy.”

Rainbow Dash said.

“Hay! Ya’ll are ok, and for that, we’re grateful.”

Applejack said, assuringly.

James lived as a pony the rest of his life, and with Twilight Sparkle.

Being with Twilight Sparkle like this, had been a dream for him. Something he thought was impossible. His dream had come true, and he was happy.
