The Night in my House

8:11 PM  11/05/2012

  I could feel the sunrays landing on my left cheek, and on my whole body, wrapping me like a blanket made of light. I could feel the warmth of the light, making me wanna sleep like a baby, not even wanting to wake up.

Soon, the light landed on my eyes, making me slowly open them, I could see my coffee table, and the bookcase not too far away, and my plasma TV with the PS3 and all my games....wait....what happened last night?

  As soon as I woke up, I found myself on the not-so-comfortable living room couch. Looking around, I didn't find anything changed…… maybe I just collapsed on the couch from my tiredness. Wait...NOW I REMEMBER, Luna got into my house, crying, so, like a gentleman that I am, I helped her get in my room for some sleep, telling her about my world and where  she is now, but this idea sounded more like a fiction, there's no way Princess Luna herself could be real, and all I need is some 'real' friends…….maybe I could talk to my boss, letting him know I need some time alone to recover, so that's means it was just a dream.

  "Shit, that was one weird dream last night" I said while rubbing my eyes, trying to adjust to the sun light that travels through the window into my room.

  "What did you dream about last night, Zack?" I heard a woman voice. My eyes shoot open, and looking toward the source, I could see it was... LUNA? with a worried face.

   "GAH!" I yelled. I think my heart pounded so hard that I think it tried to get out of my chest in that moment. "WHAT THE FUCK??". I suddenly flew off my couch, landing on my back with a painful feel going through my bones.

  "ZACK, are you okay?!" Luna yelled, grabbing me with her magic. I managed to get back on the couch, Luna stood beside me, breathing heavily. Man, I could have had a heart attack.

  "Yeah, I'm fine" I said, lifting my head, trying to scratch my back, damn, it hurt like hell !

  "Zack, I'm so sorry for freaking you out like this, please forgive me" Luna said feebly, some tears going down her cheeks. She must really care about me, how could I not forgive her!

  "It's ok Luna, I forgive you, It's was just....I thought this was just a weird dream last night" I said, with a big smile, looking directly into her eyes. I could see my reflection in her pupils, into her gorgeous eyes, her beautiful night, her bright shining stars covering the night sky, she's so beautiful that I was lost in her eyes.

  Our faces were inches away, until our mind suddenly changed, making us apart, looking into different directions.

  An awkward silence was taking over, the only sounds that could be heard were either chirping birds songs, or the cars from the street.

  "So..." She broke the silence like a knife in a cake, making me jump a little from her.

  "So..." I continued, still looking away. I could see with my corner eye she would look at me. A loud rumble could be heard from her stomach, breaking the silence, making me chuckle a little.

  "So, you're hungry, Luna?" I asked, looking straight into her eyes with a big smile "Would you like to eat something?" I continued, standing up and walking directly to the kitchen. She replied with a nod "That would be lovely, but I wonder...what humans actually eat?" She asked with a confused look.

  I gulped. 'Shit, ok Zack, don't worry, maybe trying to be as reasonable as would make her understand' I thought, with a final breath, "Well Luna, you see...humans are actually....omnivores" I said deadpan. I could see her surprised look, her pupils becoming smaller, and the eyes wider, as in shock .

  "Y-y-y-ou eat-t-t p-p-pon-nies?!?" She asked, with a fear voice, making me feel worse for telling her that.

  "NO, Luna, we don't eat ponnies, we only eat meat from cows, pigs, chicken, and other animals that I don't think if their meat are consumable, but I could guarantee you that we...DON'T...eat...ponies." I said, raising my hands in defense. With a disgusted look, she sighed in relief, her face coming back to the normal emotion. "Would eggs be good enough for you to eat, Luna?" I asked, looking at her as she nodded happily, getting off the couch and walking to me. I opened the fridge, looking for eggs, I could see that my fridge was pretty empty, really?, just some apple juice, 3 eggs, some milk and pork meat left-overs. I mentally decided  today I should pay a visit to the grocery store, I got some pretty good savings from my job as I didn't really spend the money on expensive crap and shit, I would only use it for food, and some new PS3 games.

  Anyway I grabbed the eggs, and the apple juice, putting them on the counter, took a pan from the drawer, turned on the stove, and put the pan on the little fire from the stove. I started half-breaking the eggs and putting the mix into the tap.i could  see Luna was watching my...hands? movements as I was making  breakfast. She watched me curiously, not taking her eyes off me. That was pretty cute but still creepy.

  "Uhh...Luna?" I said, looking at her, not wanting her to start licking my hands or anything else. My voice suddenly made her get out of the trance, gasping and looking at me, with a worried face.

  "Oh sorry, Zack, I think I might be... enticed  by your hands, I never seen so much dexterity, not even from dragons, even if they have claws." She said, stretching her chin, staring at the floor and avoiding my look.

  "It's ok. OH!, I almost forgot, how would you like the eggs, Luna?" I asked her. How could I forget asking this?

  "Scrambled would be great" She said with a big smile, then walking towards the dining table, taking a chair, standing on her hind hooves, while the fronts were between the hind, much like a dog standing.

  I chuckled, while looking at her, she looked so cute, if you could hug her, you couldn't even let her go. Continuing my business with the eggs, I started scrambling the eggs in the pan.

  Next I grabbed two plates and two glasses, putting them on the counter, I tilted the pan, making the eggs fall perfectly on the plates, took the apple juice carton,  opened it and poured in the glasses. Putting the plates and the glasses, I took a seat at the other end of the table. Now Luna and I could see each other faces. I picked my fork and started to eat my breakfast, while Luna used her magic to lift the forks and started to cut the eggs from her plate,wearing a pleased smile. I smiled back and then focused on my food.

  Luna was the first to break the silence. "So, Zack, do you have any family here, or you live here alone by yourself" She asked having a curious face.

  That hit me just like a tank with a big canon, I could actually feel a tear started to drift from my eye, everytime when I was thinking about my parents death, I always cry or feel extremely depressed, but hidding it wouln't resolve anything right?

  "Well Luna, yeah, I...actually live by myself here, my parents died, and I don't have any friends, they either said I would make them depressed or I am just boring, and any relatives that I have didn't even care about me anymore, like I don't exist" I said, while straching my back head, my eyes were actually getting wetter.

  "Oh, Zack, I'm so sorry about you, I think it must be really hard, with nobody helping your back or any family" Luna said with a sad voice, I think my cries were becoming contagious because I could see Luna eyes becoming wetter. "I'm sorry for bringing this up Zack, I shouldn't ask this." Luna said looking at the ground, not wanting to look directly at me.

  "It's ok Luna, no hurt done" I said with a smile. Luna looked directly at me, her smile becoming wider, with eyes closed she then began to eat her food. No words were spooked while were eating, until Luna asked again.

  "Zack, I was thinking, is there any magic in this world or any other ponies like me, lives here?" She said with a confused look.

  "Well , no, there's no magic here, but there are some but only some illusions or tricks, and yes, there are ponies here, but they aren't as smart as you or talk, neither wings or horns" I said with a smile, making her blush for calling her 'smart', 'Yes! I knew these Charms Class wouldn't be useless!' After another awkward silence, Luna breaked it again.

"Zack, if it's ok, would you please tell me what that big black box on the wall is doing" She asked, making me raising a eyebrow at her question. It took me about 10 seconds to think what she was reffering to, until it came! 'Ohhhhh, she must asking about the TV, well I don't think that should be a bad idea' I thought, scraching my chin, I responsed.

  "Of course Luna, let me clean the dishes and I will show you" With a big smile, I stood up, grapped the plates and putted them in the sink. I could hear Luna hooves trotting towards the living room, and the couch sound when someone...somepony (happy now?) would land on. I finished cleaning them, making my way to the couch, I grapped the remote control from the coffe table, and set beside Luna with a big smile.

  "Well Luna, this 'box' it's actually called a TV. This device recepts signal from other studios that records films, news, shows, or things like that, so basically, we could see what it's happening there without going there, the TV it's made basically for entertaimment, you see, to watch something, you need an antena cable, from that I could see lots of channels for just paying a small amout of money. And now, even if you have an antena cable, you can't see anything without an channel, from that (insert boring TV explanation here), and that's how TV was made!" I said, catching my breath with a big sigh, I could see Luna was amazed by how complicated and advanced was such a device.

  "Zack, it's amazing, it sound like a No-Need-To-Be-There-To-See spell, which is just like you said before, I use it to see what's going on for a radius of 2 km, well alicorns can see this further, but regular unicorns has only a radius of 10 meters." She said with a big smile.

'Holy shit, 2KM ??? I guess if I ever try to run from her, that would be useless' I thought, still amazed by alicorns magic.

  "Oh Luna, I almost forget, I will need to get some food from the store, will you be ok here?" I asked, standing up and walking towards my room, Luna following me behind as I was walking upstairs.

  "Yes Zack, it will be ok, but do you mind if I go with you, I always wanted to see how the human world looks like!" She asked with  happy voice, I stopped walking and I looking directly at her.

"Luna, I don't think humans will be pleased seeing a blue pony walking down the streets" I said, not wanting to have all the govermment agency on me.

  "Oh, I know a spell that could transform me into one of your specie, much like a changeling" She said with a long smile with eyes closed.

I gived her a confussed look about the 'changeling', not wanting her to know she's a cartoon pony from TV, that would freak her out, so I asked with my best confussed voice.

  "Uhm... Luna...what's a changeling?" I asked straching my head giving her my best confussed look.

  "Oh, a changeling it's like a pony, but they use the love from other ponies to feed them, and they can change into any pony near the. Here, watch this!" She said with big grin, then a big pink ligh started taking her, and the last thing I know is that Luna wasn't there anymore, but a human girl. She was having a long black hair, blue eyes, and a oval face and...HOLY SHIT, SHE'S NAKED!

  "Uhm, Luna, you're....naked." I said, covering my eyes of shame,my cheeks were actually burning red right now.

  "What?" She said, looking at herself "But ponies are always nude, we only wear clothes on special occasions." She said with a confussed look.

  "Yeah, but here, on Earth, being naked in front of people is considering taboo. Could you please change into a cat?" I said, my eyes still covered.

  Still having red cheeks, Luna nodded, and she's changed into Chartreux gray cat. I think my heart melted at that moment from the cuteness of what I was seeing.

  "It's better now, wait here until I change my clothes" I said, turning the knob of my room, and closing the door after me. I searched into my wardrobe, I grapped a white T-shirt, some blue jeans, white socks, and new underwear. After finishing dressing, I reach the hallway, weird thing it was that I could hear...scratching sounds, then I saw Luna scratching my wall!!

  "Luna!" I said, rushing towards her, making her looking at me with fear "Bad Luna, no scratching on my walls" I laughed then picked her and putted over my shoulder, I couldn't be mad at her, especially if she's a kitten.

  I grapped my brown leather jacket from the hanger, got my shoes on, grapped my wallet and my house keys, and turning on the knob from the front door. Locking the front door, I could see that nobody was on the street, neither home, probably they're at working. Good for me that I'm free Friday and in the weekends from job.

  The cool air spread through my whole body, making me shiver a little, even Luna started shaking. I chuckled a little and then started walking towards the grocery, breathing the cold air from the last night rain, today I could feel that my whole life would be changed.
