Gilda returns to ponyville, but this time she isn't here to be mean. Everypony hates her, shuns her, all except one pony, who shows her the way.

After leaving ponyville, Gilda's life was a wreck. She became mean, all her friends left her. She became alone, more mean, bitter to the core. She lost her job, became homeless, lost...Everything. She goes back to ponyville begging for forgiveness but no pony gives in. All except one special pony who teaches Gilda how to act, how to be, how to make friends.

The story is teen, but there are clop-chapters that I will mark with parenthesis.

Gilda's return

It was a dark stormy night. Rain poured down, lightning flashed. As the lightning flashed it illuminated a large figure in the sky. It's powerful large wings carried it to the muddy ground, its mighty talons sinking into the mud followed by it's paws touching down. The impressive figure loomed up, giving a sigh. The town of Ponyville not far away, the lights flickering from ponyville making it just visible through the storm. The gryphon closed her wings, wondering how she'd go through with this. "Oh hey dweeb. Its me again. Can I crash here?"

Gilda had bad history with that town full of dweebs. Her ex-friend dash had blown her off for that looser pinkie. Who cares that she yelled at the stupid yellow pony and flipped out because every prank had been activated by her? So what if she called herself too cool for them?! It was true! Dash wasn't even cool anymore, just a lame-o hanging out with her dweeby friends. Rainbow Dash could do what she wanted!

All she wanted was some help. Just a place to stay for a bit. Gilda's life had not been pleasant. After leaving Ponyville and returning to Cloudsdale, Gilda just seemed to grow meaner and meaner by the day, snapping at her friends angrily. One by one they left her, leaving her alone. No friends, family gone. She didn't need them anyways. They weren't cool enough for her. Gilda could go on without them! After that, she'd been fired for yelling at a newbie at her workplace and making fun of them. Well they actually had been her boss...They'd kept pestering her to do it the exact way they said to...She just turned and flipped out on them, yelling, calling them lame. Then she saw through her anger it was her boss... No amounts of "sorry's and "won't happen again, was just annoyed" could bail her out of that.

The gryphon had lost her house with no money coming in, no job., she had been eating scraps and living on stray clouds.

All that had happened three months ago. No pony hired her, after hearing what she had done they all said no. That left her a wreck.

She was rather skinny now, she wasn't a walking skeleton no, but she defiantly more than a bit below normal weight. Gildas breath stank of trash, old food. Her feathers were muddy, filthy, mixing with the rest of her fur. She hadn't washed in months, using only little soap she stole. Gilda didn't have anywhere to go, no one to turn to. Gilda wasn't going to sink low enough to go ask a loser pony for help...

Well until now. She'd had enough of living off whatever she could find, off any bit she found on the ground. She'd been lying to her ex friends telling them she was perfectly fine. The little make shift wooden shack in the woods she lived in had been trampled by something. Gilda had no food, no money, no shelter. The only place to turn to was ponyville. Somepony had to help her! One would... They were supposed to be nice right? She could be nice to one of them for a few days, get a job, then get a house until she could afford to move somewhere else. No way, no way would she live near those ponies. But Rainbow Dash would probably give her a room to crash in.

Grunting and opening up her wings, Gilda flew up to Rainbow Dash's house, shivering a little at the cold rain. Curling up her talons she pounded on the door, waiting impatiently for Dash to open the door.

"Who is it?" Called a sleepy voice through the door, which slowly opened. "Gilda?! What're you doing here go away!"

Gilda moved forward grabbing the door to prevent Dash from shutting the door on her. "Wait Dash come on! Let me in I just want a place to sleep!"

"NO! Go away Gilda! You're not staying here." Her voice was harsh, she obviously wasn't going to let her in.

Stepping away, she let the door close again. Stupid Dash. She was even more lame then before! There were other ponies, in a whole town one pony would let her stay!

Her stomach growled loudly, Gilda quickly flew back down to the ground, landing in the town square. Empty, the rain poured down harder now, drenching her. She straightened herself, brushing a feather from her face. Just... A place to stay for a few days. Her roommate kicked her out... Yes that could work. Nothing suspicious, she was perfectly fine, not going to stoop down and beg for help. Trying the house closest to her, it ended with a harsh no.

As did the second house, and the third, the fourth, the fifth. Everypony remembered her as mean Gilda, no pony wanted her inside their house. Lame-o ponies! There were others! A few flickering lights hung off a large tree to her left, a tree house? Really? A pony lived inside of a tree? How lame was that? Well it'd have to do..

Rushing over to the house, Gilda was glad it gave some protection from the rain. "Okay Gil... Just be cool, just get a room for a few days.." Knocking on the door a few times, it opened, no pony stood there though. "W-What?" Gilda took a step back, what was this? A haunted tree? A cough made her look down though, seeing the purple baby dragon, eyes barely open and a blanket in hand.

He fell to the side, snoring loudly, the door wide open and no pony else around. Giving a quick look over the room she made her way inside, quietly closing the door behind her.

A small puddle of water was quickly forming under her, but hey, it wasn't her house. Whatever lived her could clean it up. Making her way into the kitchen of the treehouse, Gilda stuffed herself full of whatever she got her talons on, eating and eating, devouring until she was full.

After a great eating, the gryphon laid down in the next room over, shivering in the dark, glad to have a full stomach for once in months.

Eyes closing, sleep overcame her in seconds.

First impressions

Gilda awoke to a loud scream, being lifted in the air. She opened her eyes quickly,a light purple surrounded her. Looking around, Gilda saw a purple form standing in the doorway. When Gildas eyes adjusted she saw that one pony she had seen at the party. The gryphon didn't remember her name, but she looked different from before...That's when she saw them. Wings. Oh damn this was an alicorn! Somehow though this purple alicorn knew her!

"Gilda?! What're you doing inside of my house? How'd you get in here?!"

"Ah let me down! Your...Dragon let me in and said I could sleep here!" A total lie but hey, not like this pony would ever find out. And it could save her from getting thrown out of this house. The purple dragon was no where to be seen but there were sounds coming from upstairs so he must be up there. But for now he wasn't really a problem. The alicorns magic faded, setting her down on the ground.

"Alright. Well why are you here first of all? Don't you live in Cloudsdale?"

"Yeah, I did... My roommate kicked me out so I just need a place to crash for a week or so... Just some time to get a job and a house."

The mare nodded, clearly not wanting to kick her out, believing her lie. "Okay Okay... You can sleep upstairs. I'll make a bed for you. If you're looking for a job Gilda, I could use someone to help with the library."

Gilda grinned, this was pretty cool. Already a job and a home. "Alright. I'll take the job. What do I do?"

"Clean, put away books after they're brought in, help ponies find books as they look for books. That's about it."

Clean? Really? Gah this job was meant for a dweeb not a cool gryphon like herself. But she didn't really have any other choice, so she gave a forced smile and a nod. "That's fine. Ah what's your name again?

"Twilight... And this will be very interesting. I've never had someone work here before...I'll need to read a book on this no doubt...Oh you can begin right now by just waiting for a pony to come in to return a book or check one out."

Gilda shrugged. Seemed easy enough. She could just sit around, eat, maybe take a nap on the job. Not like many ponies would be coming in. Getting paid to do almost nothing, maybe it wasn't a job for a dweeb after all...

Heading out, Gilda hoped to get out of here as soon as possible. Get some money, get a house, maybe move back to Cloudsdale and try for a job. Laying down by the door, she saw Twilight walking towards the door.

"I'm going out, take care of the place. Remember, if a pony comes in, help them check out or return the book." The door opened, the purple dragon at her hooves, following her outside.

At the sound of the door closing Gilda stood up, shaking herself and pumping the air. Yeah! A house all to herself! What to do though...If she left she risked Twilight coming back and seeing her gone, probably getting her fired too. Something like a nap could do. Sleeping in her bed could be fishy but she could make up a lie like she was looking for a book or something.

Turning around to go look for the bed, Gilda curled her talons as somepony knocked on the door. Of course there was somepony at the door just as she was going to enjoy herself...

Sighing, she walked over to the door, the gryphon opening up the door, seeing a little colt with a book floating barely with his magic. Seeing her the colt stepped back a bit. "Y-You're not twilight" He squeaked, scared of how she towered over him.

Be nice Gil... Just take the book, and send him off. "Oh, I work at the library. She's out. Here I'll take the book and put it away. Have a nice day." Taking the book, the colt nodded.

"Oh! Wow thanks! Have a nice day!"

She closed the door, feeling...Odd from what he had said to her... Have a nice day. Noone had said that to her in so long... Did... She enjoy that? Being nice to ponies, having them be nice back? Shaking her head Gilda dropped the book. No way! She was too cool! None of these ponies were cool enough for her, she was doing this for the money, not to make friends and be nice..

Gilda looked down at the book. "Magic for Colts" Where did that go? Twilight had never told her exactly where each book went. There weren't any letters or sections telling her where the books went. Shrugging, Gilda set the book down on a random shelf, looking around the tree house. She had to admit, it was pretty nice. Gilda liked it actually, it wasn't as good as up in the sky but it was nice. Finding the stairs, she headed up them finding a small basket with a blanket inside of it, along with a bed close by. The bed was no doubt for Twilight while the basket bed for the dragon.

Twilight's bed was small, but the gryphon found if she curled up on it she could fit. It was comfy, very soft, the pillow felt great too. Closing her eyes, Gilda yawned. If this was how her job was going to be, it would be the best job ever. Sleep was crawling up on her quickly, and she was snoring softly less than a minute later.

Twilight would be angry when she came home obviously, because Gilda hadn't washed.

A small change

"GILDA!!!"

Gilda woke with a jump, falling off the side of the small bed, leaving a nasty claw mark down the blanket as she attempted to keep herself from falling. She looked at the bed and instantly knew who was yelling at her and for what reasons. First off, now she had been caught sleeping in Twilights bed, second the blanket now had a claw mark and mud all over it which hadn't been washed off from the rain. Also, she smelled horrid. And now the bedsheets smelled bad too. Twilight looked furious at her, and Gilda was shaking a little, like a baby gryphon while getting a scolding from their mother. Twilight could throw her out right now, for once, Gilda admitted she was scared, scared of a pony! Twilight took a step forward, and Gilda backed up a bit. "Gilda... What're you doing in my bed without washing? Have you been sleeping all day?! You were supposed to be doing you job! I'm not paying you to sleep Gilda! Jobs aren't a joke you got to take this seriously!"

Gilda fought for words, grasping for a lie, and finally after choking for words for a few seconds she found something that could probably work. She couldn't lose this job, she needed it desperately. "Well I uh... This one colt came over to return a book but I didn't know where the books are supposed to go and I didn't want to mess up it all by putting something in the wrong place so I decided to take a nap and ask you when you got home, but I forgot to wash. I'm really sorry about the bed Twilight, I'll work it off I promise you!" Gilda forced a smile, though it soon turned into a real smile. She was being as friendly as possible, not wanting to lose her job and where she currently lived. Twilight seemed pretty cool, cooler then her friends. Gilda was actually liking her a little bit. She was the first pony to actually help her in a while, and that was pretty awesome.

Twilight seemed to buy into it, because she sighed, nodding. "Alright Alright... You go wash up, and I'll show you how to reshelf everything. The bathrooms very easy to find, you won't need directions."

Gilda nodded, moving out from the side of the bed, walking past Twilight then giving a long sigh. She wasn't losing this job or her place to crash. That was good! Finding the bathroom rather quickly, the gryphon grumbled. The bathtub was pretty small, made for a pony not a gryphon. After several attempts, Gilda got into a comfortable position, turning the knob labeled "hot". The steamy water flooded out, causing a cry to come from her at how hot it was. She turned the cold knob a little, sighing as she relaxed as water filled the tub. When the tub was a little over half full Gilda turned it off, the water about up to her neck. It felt amazing to have warm, clean water from a house, not cold, freezing water from a stream or lake. Gilda was just glad when she had nothing that it wasn't winter.

She closed her eyes, letting the water soothe her. Her talons wrapped around the soap, and she began rubbing her filthy body.

Twilight headed downstairs, seeing the book Gilda had been talking about. Twilight used her magic, setting each book in different piles, so it'd be very easy to show her where everything went. It took her around seven minutes, her stomach growled. Deciding to get something to eat, just as she was about to go make something Rainbow Dash came walking in, grinning. "Hey Twi! Whatsup?"

"Oh nothing Dash. Just taking out all the books so I can show Gilda where they all go."

She saw Dash stumble a little "Gilda?! Gilda?! Don't tell me she's staying here with you! You know how mean she is! She yelled at Shy for Celestias sake!"

Twilight nodded. "Yes I know. But I couldn't just throw her back on the streets! She needs a place to sleep! Her roommate kicked her out, I'm not going to just let her wander the streets homeless!"

Rainbow Dash widened her eyes. "Twilight, what're you talking about? Gilda doesn't have a roommate.."

"What?! Yes she does! Gilda said she got kicked out!"

"Twilight, I've known Gil for a long, long time. She lives by herself up in Cloudsdale." Rainbow Dash explained to her. "She's lying to you Twilight, if I were you I'd probably tell her to get lost. She's gonna just keep making up lies and avoiding work and take your money, then once she can afford to leave you'll never see her again. Where is she? I'll go tell her to go!"

Gilda had finished washing up, the gryphon listening in on their conversation, but making sure not to be seen. Anger welled inside of her. Stupid Dash! She should just go away and stop trying to ruin this for her!

"No Rainbow. She's in no position to lie, you know that. If she loses this job she'll have no where to go. I don't want to throw her out at her weakest time. She has been mean in the past but anyone can change! Gildas staying here with me, now please, do you mind leaving? Me and her have lots of work to do, and I don't want you two fighting."

Rainbow Dash huffed, turning around, before exiting she mumbled "Alright... But you're going to regret keeping her."

Gilda narrowed her eyes at Dashs last sentence, but she felt odd. Her emotions were a jumble. She was starting to like Twilight a lot more because of this, but Rainbow Dash seemed even more lame. Was she finally... Getting a friend? A real friend that actually cared about her? After so long of not having a friend, Gilda smiled happily; she wasn't going to admit she had been eavesdropping, so she was prepared to act super surprised when Twilight said Dash had come over and tried to kick her out. Stepping out from where she was hiding Gilda smelled lovely, every feather clean. She looked like her old self just missing some pounds.

"Hey Twilight. Finished washing. What've you been doing out here? Anything happen?"

"Nope, just took out all the books and was waiting for you."

Gildas mouth fell open in disbelief. What?! Why was Twilight lying to her?! She wanted to come out and angrily ask why, but then again she didn't want to admit she had basically been spying on her. Closing her mouth Gilda nodded.

"Oh? Nothing. Well alright then. So... Come on. Show me how to do this. Please." Gilda added a little forced, still trying to be nice, but it was becoming easier as she was starting to open up to Twilight a little more.

She saw Twilight nod, she looked happy to be doing this! The unicorn began talking as she floated up books, setting them in certain places; explaining to her where everything went.

First kiss

It was hours until Gilda sat down, every book neatly shelved. Twilight had put little cards under each shelf explaining what went here and what reading levels it was for. When they finished, it was already close to closing time so Twilight told her that they'd close early today, but tomorrow she was going to be here, which meant Gilda actually had to work for her living.

There however, was another problem. Twilight hadn't gotten another bed. The old one that Rarity and Applejack had used had been busted up from a spell Twilight had been working on; needless to say it hadn't gone correctly...

So, the two had come to an agreement after a bit of convincing from Twilight. It wasn't everyday Gilda would accept such terms, even if that pony was a little cool. The two would share a bed. It'd work, they'd make it work.

Twilights bed was a little small yes, but the two of them could make it work. So here she was now, laying next to Twilight, almost falling off the side. A griffon and a pony in a bed made for a pony, well it wasn't exactly roomy or the most comfortable. Sure was better then wooden floor.

"Ugh Twilight... Do I have to sleep here? It's cramped!" Gilda groaned.

"Well would you rather sleep on the floor Gilda? It'll work, just try not to fall off the bed that's all." Twilight ended that quickly. With that out of the way there was no more complaining of the bed.

The second problem was the blanket. It was too small for Gilda, and whenever she tried to get it over her she ended up pulling it off of Twilight. So now, she was nearly falling off a bed and also had no blanket. Yet, there were even more problems! That little purple dragon; Spike was reading a book, so there was a candle lit for him. He was reading some "Epic Dragon Quest!" book. That's all he had said when Twilight had asked what it was. Plus; he had the occasional burst of laughter and sometimes would read parts aloud. How Twilight dealt with it she never knew, if it was her in charge she would've told him to shut up! Honestly, who read a book this late at night?! Twilight didn't mind in the slightest though, she had fallen asleep somehow! That was insane!

Gilda had to deal with all though. She would rather be here than sleeping downstairs on the floor, this was well, more comfortable. Every time Gilda was about to fall asleep, that idiot Spike would do something. She dug her claws into the bed, rolling onto her side, facing Twilight. Pulling the pillow over her head she tried to go to bed. Luckily, Spike was going to bed too. She heard him blow out the candle, shut his book, and get into his bed. Finally, quiet! Sleep came rather quickly to her, within minutes the griffon was asleep.

~Hours later

"Mhh...." Twilight pandiculated as she woke, the morning sun pouring through her windows, lighting up the house softly. Yawning softly and pressing self consciously into the warmth next to her, Twilight kept her eyes closed for now. Though there was something... Off. She could feel claws lightly touching her belly, a body almost wrapped around herself. Blinking open her eyes in confusion, Twilight turned her head, quickly realizing where she was. Gilda had wrapped her front legs around her, pulling her close; cuddling with Twilight in her sleep. The unicorn blushed a little in embarrassment; lightly poking at Gilda to wake her up. She didn't want to move and rudely wake her up, so a gently poking would do better. "Gilda... Come on wake up.." Twilight whispered.

Gilda finally woke up after a minute or two, jumping back as she felt Twilight so close to her. Falling off the side of the bed the griffon shot up angrily. "Hey! What's wrong with you stupid?!What do you think you're doing dweeb!? Have you never heard of personal space?!" She didn't mean it, Gilda was just angry for being woken up.

Her heart nearly cracked at seeing Twilight start to tear up. She didn't know why, she didn't have any clue as to why seeing Twilight crying. Usually she didn't care, but this pained her so badly, it was worse then anything she'd felt before. Moving to the side of the bed she rubbed a talon through her mane. "No No... S-Shh... Twilight I didn't mean any of it I p-..Promise. Please don't cry.." This was coming from an unknown part of herself; what was making her act this way? Was she actually sorry?! Gilda didn't stop saying this, not until Twilight stopped her crying. It was odd acting this way, it just felt off to Gilda, yet at the same time it felt like this was how she should act. Grah! Twilight crying was messing with her thoughts and feelings in so many ways. But she couldn't try and see why, she had to make it up to Twilight. Why was she thinking like this though?! She was acting so lame, so timid. Did she really care that much? What was Twilight doing to her!? "I really liked being close to you, it was really nice Twilight... You're a great, smart pony, and your my first friend in a long, long time."

"Y.. Yo... You mean that. But you got a-angry at me..."

Gilda nodded, lifting Twilights head a little; wiping away her tears. "I meant every word of it Twilight, please please please don't cry. I can't bear to see you so sad... You've given me my life back, and that's something I can never ever repay. I feel like I could tell you anything, you've made me the happiest I've ever been. I was just angry, I swear. You mean alot to me Twilight, and that's the truth. Now please don't cry, please."

Seeing the mare looking into her eyes, her talons under her chin, Gildas heart began to beat rapidly. It roared in her ears. She couldn't say anything, she had never noticed how beautiful a pony was before. Twilight looked like an angel to her right now. Gilda blushed softly, unsure of what to do at the sudden silence that had fallen over them, the two of them staring in eachothers eyes. She felt new emotions running through her, and she was leaning forward slowly. Going off her feelings, she leaned forward completely; kissing Twilight.

Author's Note

Not really sure of this chapter; I just feel it could be better..
Well, hope you all enjoy it. Might be changing it up.

The fight

The kiss was... Heavenly. Sure, with her beak, it was a little odd, well especially with Twilights muzzle. Gilda has to turn her head a little more, open her beak a little. Twilight tried to help out but they ended up just making it harder. Finally they got it, it was still odd yes, but she loved every second. She felt Twilights surprise and sadness soon fade as she closed her eyes with Gilda, wrapping her front legs around her neck. Gilda kept it going for as long as she could, pulling away when their bodies demanded air, a long thick strand of saliva touching from her beak to Twilights. The griffon panted softly as she sat there with Twilight legs around her, staring into her eyes and feeling her cheeks burning beneath her feathers. For a pony, Twilight was really starting to prove extremely awesome, and maybe with this kiss, she'd be awesome enough to... Date.

Gilda shook her head a little as the thought ran through her mind. Twilight was.. Quite the amazing pony... But.. Dating her? Confounded to this tree, forced to watch a library all day? But.. It was home.. Twilights house was comfy, homey, sure it wasn't in the sky, but she had found herself a friend who cared about her and had taken her in, somepony who didn't hate her. The new emotions flooding into her, friendship, love, it all flooded into her. Maybe it was here, in Ponyville with Twilight, that Gilda could re-create herself, to live a good, happy life, not one mooching off friends and placing from place to place? Gilda didn't know if she loved Twilight, love was a new feeling for the both of them but she didn't want to give up on the moment. Swallowing down her fear of being rejected and hated by her only friend, Gilda broke the panting silence.

"Twilight..?"

"Uh.. Y-Yes Gilda?"

"Well.. Perhaps.. The.. Two of us could..-"

"Date?" Twilight asked softly, stealing the words right out of her beak. Gilda nodded as she said that. All the bitterness and anger seemed to seep out of her, somepony had finally loved her. Somepony wanted her around, didn't want to send her off. Twilight was a true, true friend, and now, they were.. Well what were they?

What are we? Marefriends? I'm a griffon though.. Griffon friends? Mare griffon friends? Gilda grumbled lightly, overthinking it clearly. Twilights eyes sparkled as she stared up at Gilda, and Gilda returned the loving stare, softly pecking her cheek. She had never dated somepony, and no offense to Twilight but it looked like she had never dated somepony either. Gilda was about to say something before there was a knock at the door, and she cursed under her breath as the moment was ruined. A soft kiss on the side of her beak quelled her anger as Twilight frowned and trotted towards the door. With the library closed it must've been a friend.

~

Twilight was still lost in that daze of staring into Gildas eyes. Never had she imagined that the griffon had a crush on her, they barely knew eachother for Celestias sake! But Gilda was changing clearly, and Twilight couldn't deny having a little company with Spike out was certainly very, very nice. Oh spike.. She still had to explain it to him, but for now, she was just a little dazed and wondering who was at the door. Opening it up with her magic, the alicorn was surprised to see her five friends standing at the door, a little angry. Fluttershy had gone back a bit remembering the last time she had crossed paths with Gilda. Rainbow Dash had told them the whole story, give or take a few lies, and they certainly didn't look very happy. "Twilight Darling.. Please let us in.. We need to ah.. Discuss the current situation. By that sweetie me mean Gilda. Rainbow Dash told us everything and you simply can not let the griffon back into Ponyville after what she did!"

~

Gilda stepped back and hid once more, not wanting to lose her temper, watching as the five friends were let in. She clutched her talons angrily, wanting to go yell at the lame-o Dash for telling everyone about her staying here. How dare she come in and ruin the moment! "Stupid Dash.. She's lucky Twilights around.." She grumbled under her breath. No, No. Gilda wasn't hiding anymore. She walked out right from where she was and sat next to Twilight. To even hint about their now ongoing relationship, the large griffon moved closely against Twilight, giving her a soft peck of the cheek, watching a few of her friends gasp a little at the sudden gesture. Gilda was determined to stay, and she was sure Twilight wouldn't be letting her go.

The others seemed to be speechless as they quickly realized that the two of them were dating. Dash's reaction was a little amusing to Gilda but she wasn't going to show it, boiling with anger and wanting to scream at them all. The clutching of her talons was an obvious sign, and the look she gave the five was nothing but anger right now. So what if she had bad history with Ponyville?! They should still let her stay! Twilight honest was the only cool pony in Ponyville, and that was something. Every other pony in this stupid lame town seemed to be losers. Why couldn't they just go away and let the two of them be together?!

"Look Twilight, we ah.. Well.. We don't think you should date Gilda, Celestia she shouldn't even be here! You know her past with us, poor fluttershy was screamed at by her! She yelled at Pinkie darling, she wanted Dash to bail on us. There's more, though we won't just stack onto the list of horrible things she's done Twilight. Gilda needs to go, she won't be welcome here.. Please Twilight. To you Gilda may be nice, but no one in Ponyville wants her here!"

Finding out a certain desire

Author's Note

Well this one was longer and I hope you all enjoy it, might be a few days till I get anything out again.

Finding out a certain desire

Gila continued to hold in her boiling anger. It was common for her to lose her anger, Twilight had helped her a little, but with Twilights best friends almost demanding she leave was making her bubble with anger. She had apologized to Twilight for all those! She shouldn't be demanded to leave when she was a changing griffon! This was obviously all part of Rainbow Dashs revenge on her, Gilda knew it. Twilight was starting to tear up, and Gilda could hear her sobbing softly and stumbling over words. She swallowed her anger and wiped the nasty scowl off her face, leaning down and whispering softly. "Shh.. Shh.. T-Twilight it's... Uh.. Alright.. They're just.. Confused.. P-Please don't cry Twilight it'll be alright.." She said as soothingly as she could, though still new to this loving and kind stuff she was a little.. Aggressive like with what she was saying. Gilda let Twilight cry into her shoulder and she snapped her attention back to the friends. There was long, bad air that needed to be cleared between her and all of them. First, with Fluttershy.

"Fluttershy.. Look.. Ah.. I.. I.. I uh.. I... I'm... Sorry. I didn't mean to yell at you like that I was just uh, in a bad mood at the time.. And you just.. Caught me at a bad time." She saw the pink maned Pegasus pop out a little from her hiding, sniffling and wiping away a tear or two. Pinkie was next. Gilda has a lot to say to this bubbly pink mare. Maybe if they became friends pinkie could introduce her to ponies around the town. She knew basically everyone and that would defiantly help Gilda.

"Pinkie Pie.. You.. I have.. A lot to apologize too.. When.. I first.. Came to Ponyville I.. I was greedy.. And I just wanted Dash to myself.. You bugging us just.. Sent me off.. And at the party you just seemed like the one who made all those pranks for me.. And Dash.. Dash I'm sorry. I've been a horrible friend.. W-Well even if we were friends.. And to the rest of you.. I would.. Never be able to leave Twilight.. Now.. P..P-Please leave.. Before anything bad is said.." Gilda sighed as she finished up saying all that lovey kind stuff, for someone new to all this she thought she did pretty good. She sighed again as she saw them leaving, Twilight tearing up was most likely a big contributor for them leaving without saying anything else. Her.. Mare Griffon friend stopped crying, looking up at her with red, puffy eyes, still wet cheeks. She wiped away the rest of her tears gently, smiling softly.

"Shh.. It's alright Twilight they're gone.. S-Shh don't cry.. L.. Love.." Gilda whispered softly. Twilight whimpered softly, still saddened and shocked at all her best friends demanding so harshly that her one first love leave Ponyville. Gilda was trying her best to cheer her up but she was still sad as the griffon could tell. Wrapping her powerful front legs around her she laid down with the alicorn, pulling her closer to her, letting Twilight turn and bury her face inside of her neck. Gilda rather... Enjoyed this.. Cuddling, as the ponies called it, something she'd never done but enjoyed it rather well. Having Twilight so close was nice and the mare seemed to enjoy it too, her shaking and whimpering dying down softly. She must really love all her friends.. And me to react this much to them wanting me gone.. Gilda thought, tilting her head a little as she heard soft, quiet snores. Gilda sighed as she realized that Twilight had fallen asleep in her hold. The griffon closed her eyes too, resting her head on top of Twilights, slowly drifting off.

Gilda woke hours later, the late afternoon sun pouring through the windows, a few hours from setting. The griffon yawned and shook herself, seeing Twilight still cuddling with her. She had to make it up to Twilight for what had happened earlier, to help her clear her mind and all. What did mare griffon friends do exactly... Oh! A date! Gilda grinned at her thought, Twilight would love a date! They could just go on to a restaurant and order something. With Twilight being a princess they'd hopefully get in quickly and not have to wait if there was a line. Gently nudging Twilight awake with her beak, Gilda kissed her when her lovers eyes were open. They could kiss better now, after their first attempt they had seemed to gotten ahold of the whole Gilda with a beak and Twilight with a muzzle. It lasted a few seconds before Gilda pulled away. "H-Hey.. Uh.. I was.. Just.. Waking you up to.. Uhh.. Tell you we're going out to dinner!"

"W-Wait what? Gilda dinner? But it's already kinda late an-"

"S-Shh.. Ah.. You need to relax after earlier and all.. We don't need to dress up or anything, we can just go. Alright?"

"A-Alright.. Well.. I guess.. Lets go then... I can fix myself up on the way there.."

Gilda quietly whispered "Awesome!" and got up from cuddling with Twilight. Shaking the sleepiness out of her legs the griffon yawned. A date would defiantly clear Twilights and her minds, and plus that's what couples did! Well, she was sure that they did. She was also pretty hungry.. Twilight was fixing herself up too, fixing up a few feathers in her wings and combing her mane down a little. Gilda knew she looked messy but she didn't care much. She could go how she looked! When Twilight finished fixing herself up the two were out the door, walking down the streets of ponyville towards a place Twilight said they had to go.

As they walked, Gilda could feel the burn of their stares, watching them steer around them, walking on the other sides of the roads even though they knew Twilight, staying away from Gilda after knowing what she had done in Ponyville before. She stuck close to Twilight and just kept walking, walking and trying her best to ignore everypony. She didn't stop until she felt Twilight stopping, the small buzz of an outdoor restaurant, the waiters rushing around and ponies eating.

There was quite a large line, it was a beautiful night and there were fifteen or so ponies waiting in line to be seated. "Agh.. Is there no other place we can go? We'll be sitting here all night with how long this line its.." Twilight just rolled her eyes, waiting a little and soon a mare came up to them. "Oh! P-Princess Twilight! Here right this way, we have a table opening up right now. Here follow me please."

They were sat immediately with Twilight being a princess, which Surprised Gilda. They were brought past everyother pony to a now open table. Their waitress was a unicorn mare, who seated them quickly. "Good evening I am Sparkling Memory, I'll be your waiter tonight. Can I get you two anything to drink? Perhaps just two waters to start you off?" The waitress asked, and seeing them look at eachother and nod sent her off to go grab them two waters. Before she left she set down two menus, which they started to look over quickly. "Wow.. Twilight... I never knew you being a princess made ponies more.. Like you and all. Do you know her? She seemed to know you.." Twilight shook her head. "No she just knows me from.. Yeah the princess.. Well actually she checks out a book every now and then. I know a lot of ponies from them just checking out books." Twilight explained to her while the waitress returned and floated down their waters infront of them. "Have you two decided what you'd like to eat?" Sparkling asked, floating out a pencil and a little notebook.

"Ah Yes.. I'll just have a dandelion sandwich please. And perhaps a little extra lettuce please." Twilight asked, closing her menu and smiling.

The waiter turned to her after scribbling down what Twilight wanted. Gilda gulped, she had barely glanced at the menu, so she just asked as politely as she could exactly for the exact same thing. She didn't really know of any pony foods so she just went for the same thing, though she didn't want to look like she had no idea what she was doing so Gilda glanced over the menu a few times. "Alright.. Two dandelion sandwiches... I'll be right back with those for you two."

Gilda sighed and closed her menu, setting it down on top of Twilights. Her mare griffon friend looked so happy, smiling, clearly forgetting of what had happened earlier. Even to her surprise she sat pretty close, moving her chair over next to Gildas so the two sat next, not across, from eachother. She wasn't complaining, it was rather nice to feel Twilight so close to her. With Twilight around ponies seemed to act.. Nicer towards her. The two of them chatted for a while, they were rather busy tonight, it was twenty or so minutes before their food arrived.

"Soo.. Twilight.. How'r.. I mean uh.. Well.. Soo when'd you move to Ponyville? Have you always liv-ah!" Gilda fumbled around with her water nervously and spilled it all over the table, her cheeks burning in embarrassment, she was just really nervous right now. She grumbled a little and grabbed a little too many napkins, wiping up the water as Twilight began to talk and answer her question, chuckling a little as Gilda even fumbled with the napkins nervously.

"Well no.. I used to live in Canterlot.. Princess Celestia sent me here, and ever since then I've lived inside that house! I love it here, and I'm glad I came here. It's much better with all my lovely friends.. I was her prized student you know.. Well.. What about you Gilda? Where did you live when you were younger?"

"Well.. I lived in Cloudsdale... Me and Dash went to flight school together. I moved out of my parents house when I was young and lived on my own. I sorta was living really good there and learned of Dash in Ponyville and came to see her. It ah, didn't go super well when I returned to Cloudsdale. Say Twilight.. What'd you go upstairs for before we left though? You were gone kinda long.. Was something wrong?"

Twilight blushed lightly Gilda noticed as she asked that. "Oh no no no.. I was just uhh writing to Celestia.. So.. Gilda er.. I was thinking tomorrow we could work the library tomorrow. Spikes gonna be out for a week or two and it'd be nice to spend some time together and still keep it open."

"Yeah that can work.. It's not like I have much better anyways... So Twilight have you ever seen around Cloudsdale?"

"Yes.. I've been there before.. We were shown around and everything, it's quite beautiful there. I'd love to go there again if you'd come with me..."

"Yeah. I'd love to walk around with you. It's really nice any time of year really, if you've never been to where they make the rainbows I have to show you it."

There was a soft silent pause as they sat their a little awkwardly, either of them saying nothing, just sitting there until Gilda broke the silence. "Twilight.. Since your a princess and all.. Does that mean you go to Canterlot and all? I've actually kinda wanted to go there to be honest. Dash told me about Canterlot and it seems pretty awesome ..."

"Well yeah we can go there sometime if course. I'd love to go there with you sometime. It's quite lovely in the autumn, maybe we could go there together and I can show you around. Maybe you could meet Celestia even."

Once again there was another silence, but no pony broke it. Their food was going to arrive any minute anyways. By then she was already in thought. Gilda liked it, not being stared at or having ponies steer away from her. Or maybe it was just because the waiter didn't feel like acting badly infront of Twilight towards her date. She was so lost in thought she didn't hear the waitress setting down their food and wishing them a good meal. It wasn't until Twilight nudged her softly Gilda snapped out from her thoughts. "Oh... Twilight.. Food.. Yeah.. Thanks.." She muttered, seeing her date already almost halfway done with her sandwich. Gilda had never eaten this before and didn't want to spit it out and say it was nasty infront of Twilight. So, she just made a little lie so a she didn't embarrass them or look picky and hate it. Plus spitting it out or anything like that probably wouldn't be good. "Eh.. Twilight I'm not really hungry.. Can I box this for later?" Twilight nodded and she bought the lie. "Well.. Of course. I'll ask for a box before we leave.. Here why don't we pay now and head home? It's been a great date, thought it is getting pretty late.."

Gilda smiled a little and nodded, thought instead of getting two boxes Twilight used her magic to set their food inside a box. Being a unicorn sure had it's perks.. Though it'd never beat how awesome it was to be able to fly. The griffon smirked and got up, blushing nervously as Twilight placed the bits on their table. It was a little embarrassing to have Twilight pay since Gilda was the one who had asked her on the date, but she didn't have any money anyways so she was a little glad she had paid for them. Before they left Gilda finished up her water before following Twilight back onto the road back towards her house. The date had flown by, and the sun was already very close to setting. They had been there for an hour at least, thought it seemed like only a few minutes, everything in Ponyville seemed so close too, as they were inside Twilights house minutes later after walking down the road. No pony seemed to notice them and no pony stared, though that was probably because it was pretty late outside. Gilda opened up the door for Twilight as they stepped inside.

"Alright.. Wow Twilight heh.. Thanks for paying and everything.. I'll meet you upstairs for bed alright?" Gilda yawned and headed up the stairs, though as she was heading towards Twilights bed.. Something caught her eye. She knew by now Twilight was a very organized mare, and seeing magazines throw everywhere and hastily clumped together under her bed was... Rather surprising. Twilight must've thrown them under there before they left for the date. Curious, Gilda took out the magazines, her cheeks burning darkly as she saw most of them. "PlayGriffons, PlayMares, Gilda came across seven magazines, five of which all featured griffons. Gilda blushed as she realized her Twilight had a huge fantasy for griffons. As she flipped through the pages she came across many sticky hoofprints dotting the pages, clearly Twilight had done... A lot of things with these magazines. Gildas beak dropped open as she flipped through the pages, hearing a gasp come from behind her.

"G-Gilda! T-Those ar-aren't mine t-they are a fre-"

"Twilight.. You.. Wow.. You.. You never told me you like.. Griffons so much.. I.." Gildas heart began to race and she turned to look at her lover. "Perhaps.. We.. Could... M-Make your fantasies come true?"

The book. (Clop)

She saw Twilights cheeks turn the darkest shade of red possible, almost a dark purple as she heard Gilda suggest they have sex. Gilda herself was a virgin and she knew Twilight was too, but she couldn't deny Twilight was very nice looking, and they were dating. Twilight, like herself, had never done anything, but with how big a bookworm twilight was she guessed she had read basically everything. Going off what she had read, Gilda gently lead Twilight to the small bed, blushing too. She was already a little aroused from feeling the sticky hoofprints and seeing all those pictures, her griffonhood damp. Gilda was keeping her wings from fluttering out. She had her front legs wrapped around the alicorn, holding her close. She was rather large compared to Twilight but they'd make it work. Gilda kissed Twilight softly, keeping her eyes closed as her tongue gently played with Twilights, twirling around and fencing with her lovers wet warm organ, dancing. She was just going more off books and was rather sloppy as she kissed. Trailing her claws down Twilights body she unknowingly left scratch marks down her lovers sides, her talons were razor sharp. Twilights hooves were a problem too, Twilight was a little clumsy with them and accidentally hit her a few times from jumping lightly from the talons that left light white marks down her thighs and sides.

Gilda finally stopped her talons after enough of Twilights hooves, both of them leaving enough marks on each other, and as if a miracle Twilights hooves became much better when Gilda stopped, maybe her talons were a little sharp.. The kiss was finally broken as they pulled away for breath, panting softly and staring into each other's eyes, Gilda having her talons resting gently on Twilights hips, Twilights hooves laying on her sides. Well... If their talons and hooves would work perhaps they could please each other another way! Gilda switched positions, sixty-nine position, a good favorite of mare on mare and female griffon on griffon. They could please each other would beak and muzzle. Gilda leaned up to start licking, smirking a little as she seemed to get a hold of it, though her beak ended up poking Twilights thigh, causing her to whimper painfully. The sharp point almost broke the skin. She got a few licks, though After seven failed attempts Gilda stopped. Her beak kept getting in the way, this clearly wasn't going to work for her. Twilight seemed to be doing alright, with her muzzle it was a little easier for her. She could feel Twilight licking a little though they both clearly had no idea what they were doing. Twilights clumsy hooves hit her thighs a bit and Twilight tried massaging lightly but nothing seemed to work. Gilda grumbled and gently rolled her off, both of them having marks from the others failed attempts. "Twi.. I don't think this is gonna work.."

The Alicorn nodded in agreement, frowning before sitting up, a book soon landing on the bed. "Maybe this will help! I've been saving this for a while!"
Gilda leaned forward and read the cover of the book.

"Of hooves and claws, a reference guide to interspecies mating."

"Really Twilight? How long have you had this book?" Gilda teased.

"W-What?! H-Hey I li-like griffons ok? Hey don't complain, this book will help us out a lot!"

Gilda rolled her eyes playfully. "Haha I guess your right. This book better be awesome. I don't really like reading you know."

Twilight smirked and opened up the book. Luckily for her it had pictures of all the moves and was very descriptive Gilda blushed as they read through the book, which explained exactly how the two of them would be able to have sex. It displayed numerous positions and that Gilda should make her claws a little less sharp, or maybe try having a spell around them so they didn't hurt twilight, and try opening her beak a little more. It explained to Twilight that her hooves would leave marks and she should be careful and many many other things. They eventually finished up the book, and the two of them looked at eachother, an awkward silence fell over the two of them as Twilight closed the book. Gilda's heart pounded and her claws were soon coated with a warm purple coating from Twilights magic like the book had said to do. She knew then that Twilight was.. Rather submissive. She more sat there and looked down nervously, lightly pawing the ground, waiting for Gilda to make the first move. It could be she's just nervous.. Agh what do I do?! Kiss her, or begin where we left off? Do I ask if she wants to go again? Ah screw it! Gilda shook her head before placing a talon onto Twilights chest, once again pushing into awkward beak-muzzle kiss, gently pushing her onto her back, wishing this would go well, then pushed two of her claws into Twilight. The magic helped out because she heard a soft moan come from Twilight. The mares sweet folds were already wet from flipping through the book, cheeks burning red.

Gilda broke the kiss gently as she began moving her claws in and out, the light thin barrier around the tip of her claws making sure she didn't hurt Twilight. The griffon curled her two claws a bit and smirked, softly pumping them in and out if her lover, who seemed to be in a pure blissful daze. Twilight was moaning softly, actually rolling her hips, lightly humping at the claws inside of her. Gilda continued to finger her, adding a claw to her own griffon hood to lightly rub as she pleased her lover. She waved her tail softly, cooing as she started to finger Twilight faster, hearing her pant lightly and moan louder. Adding another talon she teased her clit lightly with her claw, feeling the tight warm walls suddenly clamp town on her two claws, an even louder moan escaping from a Twilight as her eyes rolled up and she was practically drooling, giving a sharp lusty cry as she came hard all over her claws. Gilda stopped for a second as she shifted positions back to where they were before, the sixty nine position. Gulping, she slowly pulled out her claws and the magic faded, her claws wet and slick from Twilights nectar. Bringing them to her mouth, Gilda gently sucked on one. The taste was very... Odd. Her talon, mixed with the sweet, berry tasting juices of twilight, created an odd mixture for her to taste. Twilight wasn't exactly the best tasting, but she was not bad at all! Twilight panted softly as her orgasm died down, finding herself with Gilda's sweet lips not far from her muzzle, glistening with it's wetness.

Gilda felt pleasure exploding inside of her when Twilight leaned up and began licking, making sure to be very gentle with her hooves, even adding a little spell to increase Gilda's pleasure. The griffon clutched her talons, holding in her moans as best she could, but a few gentle moans escaped from her beak. Gilda leaned down, opening her beak wider, and starting to lick, dragging her thick wet organ over Twilights marehood, happy this finally ended up working. Without the book they'd end up bruised and little marks all over their legs from more attempts at this. She kept licking her over and over, enjoying the sweet taste. Without her talons Twilights juices tasted much better. Still not the best but very good. Gilda felt Twilight move from licking her pussy, latching around her sensitive clit and sucking hard, licking softly, starting to rub her fancy folds with her hooves, adding more and more to Gilda's joyful pleasure.

Gilda was close, she could feel it. Her moans became louder as she stopped licking, feeling Twilights tongue slide between her folds, and that was the final straw. The griffons walls tightened down a bit, and a gush of juices rushed into Twilights mouth, coating her tongue with the sweet liquid. Without even a moment to rest, Twilights horn was inside of her pussy, taking her virginity. Gilda grunted in pain but was overtaken by pleasure, her tight warm walls squeezed at the long thick horn inside of her, massaging in as Twilight began moving her horn in and out. In retaliation, Gilda slid her tongue between Twilights dripping wet folds, her claws playing with her clit. They were still beginners though, and their movements a little off and sometimes clumsy. Twilights horn started to heat softly, jolts of pleasure bolted up her spine, causing her to moan loudly, even more so as the long horn vibrated slightly. Magic, Gikda wished right then and there she had a horn! Without a warning Twilight came so very fast, a splash of juices hit her beak and she swallowed down whatever she could, then something new happened. Twilights horn began to heat more and more, her lovers movements becoming more frantic, before finally a loud cry escaped her lips and her horn flashed white, and stream after stream of thick, steamy magic goo flooded into her warm passage. Twilight was working wonders and getting pleasured at the same time! That book had helped Gilda out a lot, and Twilight doubt too. This was going to be a long and very fun morning.

Gilda lay on her back panting softly, her front legs wrapped around Twilight who lay on top of her, sleeping lightly. The beautiful mare sweating lightly. Her horn was dripping lightly onto her but Gilda didn't mind really. They had finished up cleaning themselves off after their fun and Twilight had ended up falling asleep on top of her as the two of them cuddled with eachother. She slowly slid out from under her lover, setting her down on the bed and pulling the blankets over her, writing a note she'd be home soon. Gilda just hoped Twilight could read her writing! Deciding to head out and get some fresh air, Gilda took a few bits from Twilight, not a lot but enough to buy a little something. Heading out of Twilights house she planned on buying Twilight a gift.

Everything went just as planned. It was... Perfect? Gilda didn't know but it had seemed to go very smoothly for her. No pony called her names, no evil looks, or maybe that was just because she'd kept her face mostly hidden for the entire time with a little hood and constantly moving her head behind something when it was pushed down. After spending all the money on her gift, she headed back home to the treehouse, smiling as she pushed open the door, seeing Twilight cooking in the kitchen, a sweet aroma hit her and Gilda felt her stomach grumble. That could wait for later though, as for now this had to be done. Heading over to Twilight she pecked her cheek softly. "Mh... Can't wait for breakfast. But for now Twilight I have a little ah, well two things for you exactly. I... Uh sorta used your money but I'll pay it off I swear to you... But..."

"Huh? But what? The money thing is fine don't worry you will pay it off soon I bet."

"Heh... Probably not.." Gilda reached behind her and pulled put two wrapped gifts, one small box and the other clearly a book. Softly ripping open the box she turned and opened it, taking out a small purple gem ring and sliding it down Twilights horn. "How hehe, this cost a lot but is not a wedding ring... It's a promise ring.." She kisses twilights nose softly. "I promise I'll be loyal to you forever twilight... I love you.." Picking up the other present she grinned. "Of hooves and claws number two... I hear it's got double the action... Now how about we head on to your room and try this out?~"
