A Night to Themselves

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Discord and Celestia walked out of the diner, ready to spend the rest of the night together. They hadn't planned something yet, so they  tried to think of a place to go.

"Where do you suppose we should go?" asked Celestia.

"Hmmmm" said Discord, scratching his forehead. "I think we should go someplace peaceful and quiet."

"Oh, really? Like where?"

"Like here!" said Discord, and he snapped his fingers. Immediately the two were transported to the middle of a rave party. Vinyl Scratch was playing dubstep on full blast, while everypony was cheering, singing, and dancing.

"This isn't 'peaceful and quiet'! We're in the middle of a RAVE!" said Celestia in anger.

"Oops, sorry!" said Discord sarcastically.

"You did that deliberately, didn't you?"

"Yes, I did. Now let's actually go someplace quiet" said Discord, and he snapped his fingers again. Discord and Celestia found themselves in a construction site, with the loud noise of jackhammers and trucks.

"Stop it, Discord" said Celestia in disappointment.

"Ok, ok" said Discord, and he snapped his fingers again, this time transporting them both to a cliff overlooking Appleoosa. "There, are you happy now?"

"Yes, I'm fine."

"I hope that incident didn't ruin our relationship."

"Of course it didn't" said Celestia. "In fact, I though it was kind of cute!"

"Cute?" said Discord, "cute like this?" and he snapped his fingers and turned himself into some little dog girl creature. "I'm Dot Warner and I'm the cuuuuutest!" Discord said in a high and annoying voice.

"Stop that please, now" said Celestia, rolling her eyes. Discord changed back to his real form. Then he lay on his back, gazing up at the stars.

"Come join me under the stars, will you, my sweet honey pie?" he said, winking.

"Oh, why sure" said Celestia, and she lay next to him. They gazed at the stars, pointing out different constellations.

"There's Aquarius" said Discord, pointing up to the sky. "I'm an Aquarius."

"You sure don't seem like one" said Celestia.

"Exactly. I broke the law."

"Oh, well that makes sense. What else do you see?"

"There's Lauren Faust" said Discord, pointing to another group of stars. "Oh, and there's Ursa Major."

"Ursa Major?" said Celestia in surprise. "Let's get outta here!" she said, looking back to see Ursa Major running towards them. Discord jumped onto Celestia's back, and she flew away. Ursa Major looked up at them flying through the sky and roared. "Whew, that was a close one!" said Celestia.

"Your wings are so pretty" said Discord, stroking Celestia's wings as she soared across the sky at ten thousand feet. "You, know, it's nice to be flying on your back up in the air. I love the feeling of the wind on my face."

"I like flying too. I haven't flown for recreation in such a long time. This is great. I'm glad that we spent this night together, even though I couldn't trust you at first."

"Hey, look, I can see Manehatten from up here!" said Discord, pointing down towards the city's skyline. Even from up high they could hear the sounds of the city's night life. "And over there's Detrot!" he said again, pointing off into the distance.

"How do you like it looking down at Equestria from up in the air?" asked Celestia.

"It looks wonderful. You know what's even better? Looking up at Equestria from down in the air!" said Discord, and he snapped his fingers, suddenly turning Equestria upside down.

"Ok, ok, stop it" said Celestia, so Discord changed it back.

"I wish my wings could help me fly this high up. I haven't seen Equestria from the air before. Everything looks so tiny. You can hardly see anypony on the ground."

"I know, I doubt even the bravest and strongest of pegasi have flown up this high before. You and I, we just feel so... alone."

"I know, us two alone" sad Discord, stroking Celestia's flowing mane. "We should do this more often."

"Well we only have one night together. Tomorrow morning it'll all be over."

"I know, I think we should enjoy this night well. Like go to a party."

"I'm not going to a party!" said Celestia, giving Discord an angry look. "Let's just stay someplace quiet, like up here."

"Ok, ok, we'll go somewhere quiet. I still wish we could go to a party, though."

"Let's fly to the castle" she said, swooping down.

"No, not yet" said Discord, "let's have more alone time to ourselves."

"Ok, dear" said Celestia, and she soared down to some random place. In fact, they landed right in the middle of the Everfree Forest.

"This looks pretty nice" said Discord, looking around. "Let's take a walk, ok?"

"Sure, sweetheart" said Celestia, and they began to walk through the forest. They weren't afraid of the forest at night, like everypony else was. As long as they were together, they would be ok.

"Ever been in the Everfree Forest at night?" asked Discord.

"No, but I've seen it at night from my balcony. It doesn't look special, really, even though there are parts that claim to be unexplored."

"Don't worry, I know this place very well."

"You've been all over here before?"

"Well I created it, silly. Remember when I threw those seeds on the ground right before you turned me to stone?"

"Oh, that was all your fault." said Celestia, rolling her eyes again.

"I know, I just wanted to have a little fun. Maybe we can have some fun now!" said Discord, and all of a sudden, thorned tentacles stretched out from the ground and grabbed him and Celestia.

"OW!" screamed Celestia, but Discord put his hand on her mouth.

"Don't worry, you won't get hurt, I made these appear, so it doesn't hurt as bad."

"Well it still is annoying."

"Can we just cuddle in here, please?" said Discord, stroking Celestia's chin.

"No, please put us down."

"As you wish" said Discord, and he snapped his fingers again, making the tentacles disappear. They both continued to walk through the Everfree Forest until they finally found their way out of it.

"Okay, our walk is over now" said Celestia. "May we please go back to the castle now?"

"Sure thing, pal" said Discord, and he jumped on Celestia's back. She took off and flew towards Canterlot. When they got there, Discord pointed down to the palace's outdoor swimming pool. She swooped down and landed on the pavement around the clear blue pool of water that smelled of chlorine. "Let's take a seat down, shall we?" said Discord. They both sat together on two deck chairs.

"This is so quiet and relaxing" said Celestia. "I think I should be getting ready for bed soon."

"Just give us a little more time together, alright?" said Discord, taking sunglasses out of nowhere and putting them on.

"Ok, twenty more minutes."

"While we sit here, I want to give you a little treat" said Discord, holding out his fist, clearly holding something that was a surprise. This made Celestia a bit suspicious of him again.

"Are you playing another prank on me?" said Celestia in suspicion.

"No, it's a sweet" said Discord, and he opened his fist to reveal a piece of bubble gum in his paw. "You can have it."

"Sure" said Celestia, and she licked it up from his paw and put it in her mouth, chewing it. Discord liked the feeling of her tongue brushing against his paw, it tickled a little.

"Don't chew too loud, ok?" he said.

"Don't worry, I won't, sweetheart."

The two lay on their chairs for about ten minutes, looking up at the stars in the night sky and listening to the quiet and slight rippling sound of the pool. After about ten minutes, they walked up to the palace's balcony and sat there. "Time is running out, my dear" said Discord. "Let's just make this the loveliest ten minutes of the night, before we go to bed."

"Ok, Disco" said Celestia, still chewing her gum. She blew a bubble, and Discord popped it with his teeth. She chuckled a little. Discord smelled her breath.

"Hey girl, you know what your breath smells like?" he asked.

"Ummm... bubble gum?" said Celestia.

"No, it smells like love" he said, and then he wrapped His arms around her and kissed her again. As they were kissing, they heard somepony walking up the stairs.

"Sister I broke the toi-" said Luna, walking onto the balcony to see her sister kissing her arch-enemy. "What are you doing, sis?" Luna asked.

"Oh, it's just a re-enactment" said Celestia, and she and Discord continued kissing.

"Oh, yeah, I remember that. Back before I was Nightmare Moon." said Luna, and she kept watching them kiss. Discord turned to Luna with a look of embarrasment on his face.

"A little privacy, please?" he said, so Luna walked back downstairs. After kissing for a few more minutes, Discord and Celestia walked down from the balcony to the royal bedroom.

"Can we sleep together?" said Celestia, giving Discord a seductive look.

"Oh, sure, heheh" said Discord, blushing. "But will you spit out your gum first? I don't want it getting stuck in your gorgeous mane overnight." Celestia spit out her gum into a wastebasket and walked over to bed. Discord followed. They both jumped into bed, Discord wrapping his paw around Celestia's body and placing his claw on her chest.

"Good night, Disco" said Celestia, closing her eyes.

"Good night, Tia" said Discord, and he turned out the light. As he lay there trying to sleep, he felt the calm beating of Celestia's heart as she slept. The relaxing feeling made Discord fall asleep as well, and they slept together for the rest of the night like lovers do.
