"Best Friends" Anniversary Party
Epilogue: Worth It
Previous ChapterLyra and Bon-Bon sat on a blanket, watching as Celestia set the sun. Bon-Bon leaned her head on Lyra's shoulder. "I love you."
Lyra nuzzled her discreetly as she could - there were a few other ponies watching the sunset nearby. "I love you too."
A rainbow streaked across the sky. Most likely Rainbow Dash doing tricks. Lyra sighed contentedly. "You know, I feel like we're the luckiest mares in the world. I mean it's been a year and I can't remember a single serious fight."
Bon-Bon smiled up at her. "That's just because you are forgetful dear. We have had fights."
"I know, but nothing serious," Lyra laughed. "Remember that time when I kept eating your candy as you just as you took it out of the oven?"
Bon-Bon rolled her eyes. "Which time?"
Lyra snickered. "The time you got really mad about it."
Bon-Bon stared at her flatly. "As I said: which time?"
Lyra rubbed her chin on Bon-Bon's head. "The time you yelled at me for two hours straight?"
"Oh..." Bon-Bon blushed. "Yeah."
"Why are you blushing? Because of what happened, or because of how we made up to each other that night?"
"Yes," said Bon-Bon, blushing harder.
"Which?"
"Both..."
Lyra just continued to laugh. Bon-Bon pursed her lips. "Oh stop laughing and lie down next to me like a normal pony," she said, referring to Lyra's preferred odd upright sitting position.
"I'm more comfortable this way."
Bon-Bon rolled her eyes. "Fine, be that way," she gazed out at the sunset. "You're weird."
"Oh hush you like it."
Suddenly Bon-Bon looked up into Lyra's eyes, overcome with how much she loved this mare. She reached up and caressed her cheek gently.
"Bonnie... they'll see."
Bon-Bon smiled. "Pinkie was right, you were right... I shouldn't be ashamed of loving you. I am not."
With that, she kissed Lyra passionately, uncaring of the ponies around them. Let them hate if they will, nothing will stop her love.
Author's Note
Originally I was going to end it with only Pinkie finding out, and them keeping it a secret. But I felt that wouldn't be a satisfactory end. So here it is!
The lines:
"You're weird."
"Oh hush, you like it!"
Were taken from a picture of them I saw once somewhere on the internet... I've been unable to find it again.
Don't forget to comment: Feedback is encouraged!
I don't mean to be a nag... but I can't improve if you don't tell me what I did wrong and what I did right!
As it is true same-sex couples should not be ashamed, in the real world, gays and lesbians publicly displaying affection can lead to their deaths. It's happened before and it will happen again. Violence against the LGBT community is a real thing, and cannot be ignored.
