Ooops I'm pregnant

Twilight levitated her bag onto her bed and dumped the contents across the tasteful bedspread. As the spell books tumbled across the bed, Twilight grabbed an old, falling apart book. This book in particular would get her out of this mess. This book would make Celestia treat her like a fake. This book would help her hide her pregnancy.Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Dammit, thought Twilight as she quickly hid the book under her pillow.

"Come in!" she said in a falsely cheery voice.

Flash Sentry opened the door gingerly.

"Um, hi." said Flash as he looked at his hooves.

"Flash. Flash, Flash, Flash." Twilight said.

"Have no worries Flash, I have a plan. Come in, sit down and let me talk."

Flash Sentry sat on the edge of the bed.

"Comfy? Ok, here's the plan: I will use magic to hide the pregnancy, we will pretend we don't know each other for the next little while. Then, when the child is born, I will send it to you and you can explain to your buddies that your ex-girlfriend was in the hospital on her death bed, and sent the newborn child to you. Ok?"

Flash was not ok. In fact, he was quiet mad. "Twi, why don't we just get married! Everything would be much easier."

Twilight started to loose composure. "Because Flash, I don't. I don't. I can't!"

She started to cry. Flash walked over to embrace her, but she pulled away.

"Twi, I'm here for you and our child. Twilight, I love you." he said, but she turned away from him.

"Flash I love you too but, I never wanted to get married. Not to you or anyone. Not now not ever. So please, just look after our foal and pretend you never met me."

Flash looked at the mare he was going to propose to. Had you asked him a week ago why he was carrying around a big, fancy ring, he would have said it was for the mare of his dreams. Now, if you were to ask him the same question he would simply say he has no idea.

Twilight had curled up in the centre of the castle's bed. Flash couldn't help but think about what they would be doing on that bed had the circumstances been different. But now, all he felt was lost.

"Twilight, I'm a guard. I don't have enough money or time to raise a child by my self."

Twilight looked at him, with sadness in her eyes. "Oh well Flash. Deal with it! I'll be locked up if they find out!"

"Not if we get married!" he said getting rather angrily.

"I said NO! NOW LEAVE AND DON'T COME BACK!" Twilight pointed to the door.

"Fine, but if you don't care about me then think about our foal!"

Twilight glared at him."Your foal, Flash. Your foal."

And with that he left the room, closing the door behind him.

Once, the door was shut, he started to walk back to his room, only to find a silver-grey unicorn starring at him. She had tears in her eyes and looked at him with pity.

"There there darling, everything will be ok. My name is Rarity and I like you have the exact same problem. See, I really didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I came to deliver Twilight's luggage and well...you know. Anyway I am truly sorry." she looked at him and gave him a small smile.

Flash looked at the sparkling mare in disbelief "Did you say, same problem?!"

Rarity looked a bit sheepish as she began her story "A little while ago, Prince Blueblood came to my shop to formally apologise about the gala. I offered him some wine and well... one thing led to another and yeah. Anyway, despite... that night... we were still friends and wrote letters. So I started to notice stuff, that goes along with pregnancy and I told Blueblood. He was very good about it and he would have arranged a marriage but, his ex-girlfriend Fleur had a similar problem."

"And now," continued the weakened unicorn. "Celestia has banished him forever and I shall never see or hear from him again."

Flash looked at the pretty mare. Rarity looked up at him and smiled. "Twilight's smart. I'm sure she'll come around."

At that moment Twilight exited from her chamber bags, packed. "Flash, Rarity. You are both dead to me and once this child is out of me, I will have no contact with it. You have both been warned. If either of you are to talk to me, I shall send for royal guards, understood?"

"Twilight dear, be reasonable-" began Rarity.

"No Rarity, I told you all about Flash but you didn't even tell me that your pregnant! PREGNANT!"

"Twi, I'm sorry please  listen-" Flash said, only to be cut off immediately.

"Flash, I'm sorry but I really only wanted to have um... fun with you. Sorry it had to end this way." said Twilight her words hitting Flash like ice.

With that, Twilight turned around bags following her in a magic aura, leaving Rarity and Flash alone once again.

Rarity's face was covered in tears.

Flash couldn't believe what Twilight had said. All those times when she had said she loved him...it had all been a lie. He then looked down at Rarity, who was now sitting on the floor, a puddle of tears slowly forming in front of her.

"It's ok. Shhhh." said Flash as he cradled the mare.

"Nooooo...itssss....nooottt!" she cried hysterically.

"What am I going to do? What do I tell my family? How do I raise a child ON MY OWN!" Rarity sobbed.

Whatever Twilight had said must have triggered something in Rarity. Perhaps it was when she yelled at the already emotionally frail unicorn.

Rarity continued in a whisper "It's not like I can just find another stallion and make him marry me. I mean, how would marry me? Knocked up me."

Flash had an idea. It was crazy but, it could work. "Rarity, I know we just met and all but...this is going to sound crazy but...we could you know... get married?"

Rarity stopped crying. "But I don't even know you, how could I just marry a stranger?"

Flash felt a sinking feeling "I don't know but, we could work together and maybe we could have a happy family."

Rarity couldn't believe this. Ever since she was a little filly, she always thought a handsome prince would propose to her in somewhere beautiful, and her mane would be just right as would her make-up...

But, fantasies are not reality. In fact, the only thing similar to her dream was that the stallion was handsome.

Rarity took some time to think. At last, she came a conclusion.

"Yes. I will marry you, Flash Century."

What else could go wrong? Her life was already pretty messed up as is.
