Opposites Attract
Chapter 4
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTwilight responded to the pillow assault after noticing a large stack of pillows in the corner of the room, seemingly there waiting to be used by tossing three pillows at Pinkie Pie with her magic. Two of the three hit her square in the face. A series of giggles followed by a massive launch of what seemed like ten pillows ensued, but only two of them hit Twilight. A full-blown M.A.D.-fueled pillow war had broken out in Pinkie Pie's bedroom. It only lasted fifteen minutes, but was very fun.
Next, they watched a movie. Equestria isn't known for their technological advancements, but they still had things like movie projectors. The movie was a horror film. It was about two ponies stranded in the forest with a serial killer loose. At the scary parts, Pinkie and Twilight huddled together, holding each other tight. At the end of the movie, only one made it out alive.
"Wow... That was..." Twilight began.
"Disturbing." They both answered in unison and shared a giggle.
"So, Pinkie. What's next?" Twilight asked.
"Truth or Dare!"
"Oh no... Please don't go overboard on the dares, OK? I felt so bad for Rainbow Dash last time. I can't believe she actually put her head in the trash can."
"OK, Twilight. But I will still be brutal on the dares."
"I thought you just said you wouldn't be."
"I'm gonna be less brutal, Twilight!"
"Oh, OK. Who starts?" Pinkie decided to be first.
"Oooohhh!!!! Me! Me! Pick me!" Pinkie declared "Truth or Dare?" Not wanting to look like a scaredy-cat in front of her crush, she answered.
"Dare."
"I dare you to..." Pinkie thought for a moment. She still wanted to be brutal. "...Go eat a cupcake from the lesson I was having with Applebloom!"
"How is eating a cupcake so hard?"
"Go eat one and see..." Pinkie Pie let out an evil snicker. Twilight snuck downstairs into the kitchen and snatched a cupcake that actually looked pretty good. She brought it upstairs to prove to Pinkie that she was going to eat the cupcake. How is this going to be so hard?
"Chow down, Twilight. Hehehehehe...." Twilight rolled her eyes and bit into the cupcake.
"BLEH!!!! Oh dear, Celestia! What did Applebloom DO!?" She looked at the cupcake again to see the inside wasn't nearly as attractive as the outside. It didn't look like a cupcake. More like charcoal covered in icing.
"What does it seem like?"
"She burned the thing to a crisp! Oh dear Celestia! That was horrible!"
"I know! That's why I made you eat it!"
"Now it's my turn, buddy. Truth or Dare?" Twilight had an evil grin.
"Ugh! Truth! I'm not going through that." Damn! Why didn't she pick dare? I had something horrible planned. Oh well. I guess I can ask her something and actually get an answer.
"Do you like me yet? As in... That way?"
"Maybe. Truth or Dare?" Twilight didn't think.
"Dare and what does 'maybe' mean?"
"It means maybe. Back to the dare." Twilight decided not to question Pinkie's logic. "So, you like me so much, don't you?" Twilight was shocked.
"Y-yeah... Isn't that truth though?"
"Because if you love me so much..." Twilight's ears perked up. "...Then go ahead and kiss me." Twilight's mouth was now agape. Her mind was racing and her heart was beating faster than ever.
"R-really? Y-you want me to kiss you?"
"If you want to, go ahead. I thought about you telling me that you have a crush on me. You were so happy about spending time with me. Tonight was the most fun I've had in a long time. More fun than a lot of parties that we have been to. Tonight, we laughed, smiled, and had fun. I told you on the hill that this was a sort of experiment. It worked, Twilight. The only thing left to do is kiss. So go ahead."
"W-wow, Pinkie. If you are really serious about this, then I guess I will. Let me go wash my mouth out first. I just ate a burnt cupcake and I don't want my breath to taste like coal." The two mares shared a giggle before Twilight trotted into the washroom. She washed her mouth out and ate a complimentary breath mint.
"OK, Twilight. You can do this. This is something you've wanted, so now you are going to get it." She said to herself. She heard a muffled voice through the door.
"You ready, Twilight?" Pinkie called.
"Yeah, I'm ready!" Twilight turned tot he mirror. "Let's do this." Twilight trotted out of the bathroom attached to Pinkie's bedroom. Pinkie was waiting patiently on the bed. Pinkie gestured for Twilight to come sit on the bed withe her by patting the covers. As Twilight sat, her heart was pounding. Fast. Very fast. Not in a bad way, of course. She was excited. This was her first kiss ever. She hadn't had one before. That was about to change.
"You ready?" Pinkie asked in a low, but happy voice.
"Yep." It was not Twilight who made the first move, it was Pinkie Pie. She thrust herself forward to Twilight, starting the kiss. To Pinkie Pie, it tasted like a mint (Probably because she just had a mint). To Twilight, it tasted like cake, chocolate and cookies. It was great. It tasted great. It felt great. Their tongues wrestled one another as they had each other in a tight embrace as time seemingly stood still. Right then and there, nothing else mattered. Only them.
Needing oxygen, they pulled away, breathing heavily. Their hearts were beating faster than the blink of an eye.
"Wow..." They both said in awe.
"Was that your first kiss?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah. Yours?"
"Yep." Still gasping for air, Twilight was able to mumble something. Pinkie couldn't understand what she was trying to say, but Twilight knew that because of the puzzled look on her face. She tried to say it again. This time was a little clearer. "I think it's about time to get some shut-eye."
"Yeah. I'm worn out"
"So am I. Let's go to bed." Twilight got into the guest bed while Pinkie walked over to Twilight to giver her a goodnight kiss on the lips. Pinkie then walked over to her own bed and got comfy under the covers. She turned blew out the candle which was on her nightstand. Twilight said the first goodnight.
"Goodnight, Pinkie Pie. I love you."
"I love you too, Twilight."
"I've been waiting for you to say that." They both giggled.
"Goodnight, Twilight."
"Goodnight, Pinkie." That night, Twilight dreamed that her and Pinkie were happily married. Since genetics wouldn't allow a foal, they adopted their own. Pinkie Pie had foal-raising skills from when she babysat Pumpkin Cake and Pound Cake. They went to see a movie, they got dinner at a fancy restaurant and shared their life. They were happy.
"Twilight?" Twilight heard her name and woke up to see Pinkie Pie by her bed. It was still nighttime, probably around 2:30, so Pinkie must have had a nightmare. "Twilight. I can't sleep. After watching that movie, I'm kinda scared."
"What do you want me to do?" Twilight lazily said, still half asleep.
"Umm... Could you please lay in bed with me? Nothing huge, I just need somepony to comfort me."
"OK, I'd be happy to, Pinkie." Twilight got up from her guest bed and walked over to Pinkie's bed. They both lay down under the covers before sharing a kiss.
"Thanks, Twilight."
"You're welcome, Pinkie. I love you."
"I love you too. Goodnight."
"Goodnight, Pinkie." They fall asleep in five minutes. Happy as can be.
