A Princess's Guide To Love

Previous Chapter

  Luna was laying on her bed. She couldn't stop but think of what happened last night. She couldn't even sleep.

"I kissed him..." she said in her head, "I kissed the colt I loved!!!"

  After all the excitement, Luna began to think: What do I do now? Should I ask him out on a date? No no that wouldn't make sense! Should I send him a gift? No, what if somepony takes it!? SHOULD I JUST TELL HIM FACE-TO-FACE THAT I LOVE HIM??!! Just then, Luna heard a knock on her door.

"Princess Luna, you have a visitor." said one of her guards. Luna quickly removed her hooves from her face.

"A visitor? Well who could it be?" She thought very hard, until it came to her, "Oh, oh dear."

"Umm....Princess the visitor would like to see you now." the guard said once again.

"Oh no! He's waiting, for me!" she said in horror, "What do I do? What do I say? What should I wear to impress him?"

"Umm....Princess?"

"I'M COMING!" she yelled in her canterlot voice. Luna quickly gathered some makeup, puffed up her mane, and put on one of Rarity's fine dresses that she gave to her as a gift. She ran down the steps, hearing the clopping noises from her high-heals, and met up with the guard and her unsuspecting visitor.

"Hello, fair Big Macintosh! How do I-" she cut her own self off as she saw who was at the door. It was Cadence who made a small but devious laugh.

"Cadence!? What are you doing here!?" Luna asked questionably.

"I came to talk with you, just to see how you were doing. You dressed up for me?" Cadence answered with a laugh.

"It wasn't for you." Luna said in a grumpy tone.

"You may leave us now, I can handle this." Cadence said to the guards. As the guards departed, Luna went in for a secret smack towards Cadence, turns out, Cadence grabbed her hoof without notice.

"No no Luna, save that for later, when you really need it in your relationship." Cadence said. Luna looked back at her confused.

"What do you mean?" Luna asked.

"I'm talking about the colt, you know, the one you love so very much. What's his name, oh yea, Big Macintosh?" Cadence said giving Luna a devious, and suspicious smile. Luna blushed, and wanted to know: How did Cadence find that I like Big Macintosh? Luna thought and thought.

  "Not to mention, that lovely and wonderful kiss you guys had, and two times in a row!" Cadence said, "GOOOO.....LUNA!" Finally, Luna got the memo: SHE SPIED ON ME! Luna turned back in anger, with her face as red as a cherry.

  "You spied on me!? Why!?" Luna said.

  "I have no idea what your referring to dear." Cadence said sarcastically.

  "Oh hush, your starting to act like Discord." Luna said in a unpleasing way.

  "Oh Luna, I am the goddess of love, protector of ponies in need at the Crystal Empire, and just in case, the goddess of se-"

  "OH SHUT UP THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!" Luna yelled as she cut her off knowing what she was gonna say. Cadence stood back, giving Luna a quick check, from bottom to top.

  "Oh Luna, why try to hid it, it's very true that you love this colt as much as I love Shining. And I think that is oh so adorable!" Cadence said in her nice tone, in other words, she wasn't going coo coo anymore.

  "Well, you saw it and.....I....I just don't know what to do Cadence! I have nopony else who would wanna talk to me about this and-"

  "Well there's your sister." Cadence interrupted. Luna knew she was right. Luna had the chance to tell her sister about what happened, only, she was too afraid to.

  "Look Luna, I can give you really helpful advice, but, nopony's gives even greater advice, than the pony's sister." Cadence said and began to look deeply into Luna eyes and say:

  "It's a good first step to make."

   Luna thought, and Cadence was right. Since she had no mother or father, it was best to ask the next big thing, her own sister. She was only afraid of how she would react or say, but it wasn't to hard to just go on and try.

  "But, until you do, I'll be giving you advice!" Cadence said to change the subject, "Let's just say: A Princess's Guide To Love."

                                                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   The two spent hours going over how to have the perfect, kiss, date, dance, gift, and etc. It had been 8:00p.m, and it was time for Cadence to leave the castle and head to her own empire.

  "Princess Cadence, you carriage is here." one of the guards said. Cadence had gotten off the floor to which she had fell down to when she was testing Luna's dancing.

  "I'm going to leave, but remember what I said." Cadence said. Luna quickly gave her a hug before she departed, and whispered in her ear.

  "If you spy on me again, you'll really regret it." she whispered.

  "Oh Luna, you'll never know when I will spy on you, I even spy on you in your room. Oh and by the way, you should really stop talking to yourself." Cadence said. As she began to laugh, Luna pushed her playfully, and gave her a real hug.

   Luna began to head up to her room, looking at her glorious night. She also began to wonder: What if Cadence was right? Should I ask Celestia for advice? Luna thought and thought in her head of what she should do. Until, another whisper came to her.

  "Ask Celestia?! Wow Luna, your even crazier than you were before." Luna panicked. It was the same sound from before.

  "Listen here! I trust and believe my sister can give great and influencing advice, sometimes." Luna said backing up her sister.

  "Luna, please. If you want my advice, just dump the dumb old stallion." the smoke said with an evil laugh, it was nothing compared to Cadence's though. As it disappeared, Luna began to scream in her head: WHO ELSE KNOWS MY SECRET!!
