Luna's Lament

Luna stirred, opening her eyes slightly and feeling the naked warm mass that was Andrew’s body beneath her. She was, for lack of finding the exact words to describe her feelings, extremely content. Luna hummed and nuzzled into the neck of the softly snoring human. She nipped him and he jumped a little, but when he opened his eyes and saw the alicorn on top of him, he gave a warm smile.

“Good morning my dear princess.” He whispered.

“Good morning my sweet prince.” She responded, lowering her muzzle to his face and kissing him deeply.

“How do you feel?” Andrew asked with a smile.

“Like a need another shower. We reek of sex.” Luna mumbled.

“If we weren’t going to be ambassadors, then it would be fine right?” Andrew asked.

“If that were indeed the case then I would lie here with you all day, wrapped in your strong embrace.” She cooed, the thought making her seem like a little filly with a crush.

“I wouldn’t object my dear, after all, I love the way your fur feels when I run my hands along your fur.” Andrew said, doing the exact thing he was talking about until he reached her plump rear.

She internally begged for him to do it as they stared at each other silently with half-lidded eyes.

When he did cup her firm rear in his hands she gasped and let out a soft coo of fulfillment.

A knock at the door interrupted their moment.

Luna whined in disapproval as Andrew put on some boxers and gym shorts he had by the bed and went to the door.

He opened it to see a familiar purple alicorn standing in front of him, her mane was a mess and her crown was askew on her head.

“Uh, hey there Twilight. What’s up?” Andrew asked, scratching the back of his neck sheepishly.

“You should probably get ready now. I think our contact is expecting us soon.” Twilight said in a half groan, half sigh.

“What’s the matter? Come on, I’m here for your protection too you know?” Andrew asked her.

She just sighed and made her way next door to her own room.

“She’s not a morning person is she?” Andrew jerked a thumb back at the now closed door.

“Never has been. Stays up too late reading.” Luna shrugged.

Suddenly, a flash of golden light materialized a scroll in front of Luna and Andrew.

Luna looked at it sideways, picking it up in her own magic and examining the seal on the parchment.

“It’s from Celestia.” Luna said.

“Ya think? Seriously Princess Obvious, who else would it be?” Andrew jested.

Luna shot him a fake glare, acknowledging that she had made a rather obvious statement.

Luna opened it and began to read.

Dearest Luna,

I hope you and Andrew enjoyed your first night in Zebrica.

However, I’d like to address you both when I say that Twilight is still rather skeptical of Andrew, as she is not really a fan of his species. Poor Taylor had to endure a week of shenanigans and being stalked before I finally convinced her to leave him alone.

Nonetheless, just try and make her feel comfortable being around Andrew.

Good Luck,

Tia

P.S. Try not to be too loud next time. Twilight tried to hide it but is terrible at such things with me.

Luna’s face turned beet red as she read the last line. Andrew, meanwhile, facepalmed.

“Soundproofing spell next time. Do not forget about that.” Andrew said to the alicorn.

“Gah! I was caught up!” Luna argued.

“So was I! We just need to both remember so we don’t cause Twilight distress.” Andrew said.

“Now on the matter of her feeling ‘uncomfortable’ around me” Andrew remarked, making air quotes as he did so.

“Yes?” Luna motioned him to continue.

“She was fucking masturbating to me in the bathroom on the damn train!” He said.

“Yes, I remember,” a coy grin came to her face, “Twilight also had some very interesting things she wanted to ‘try out with you’” Luna said, making air quotes with her hooves.

“So what should I do?” Andrew asked, trying to figure out where this is going.

“I am ordering you to stay by her side for twenty four hours from now. You will have to have your Equestrian Ambassador pin on and you must do whatever she asks you to. I mean, anything.” Luna smirked as she spoke the last part.

“Luna, are you sure about this, what with our relationship and all?” Andrew scratched his head.

“Positive. If it means helping Twilight relieve some stress and loosening up to humans, then it’s fine. After all, it’s only twenty four hours.” Luna said with a shrug.

“Ok. Just remember one thing Luna,” Andrew said.

“Oh? And what would that be?” Luna asked, standing up on her hind legs, her still bare hooves coming in contact with the firm muscles of his torso.

“That I love you with all my heart LuLu.” Andrew said, bringing his head in for yet another kiss.

“Oh you know I loathe that nickname” She managed to say before she met his lips once more.

Andrew and Luna had showered and gotten dressed for their meeting with Zebrican ambassador.

Andrew was dressed in his BDU, name and rank on full display. The US ARMY patch had been replaced with an identical one that read EQUESTRIAN GUARD. The patches on his shoulders had also been replaced with the logo of the night guard, an inverted crescent moon with a sword and spear crossing below it. There was also a small patch underneath the seal read simply, Royal Escort.

Luna and Andrew waited anxiously outside Twilight’s room, waiting for her to get ready. Luna was in her usual regalia. Mane once again sparkling and waving in an invisible breeze, slippers on her hooves and chestplate and tiara firmly in place.

“Christ, what is taking her so long?” Andrew was growing impatient.

The door opened and Luna face hoofed. Twilight had her crown, make-up, slippers, and a dress on her.

“Twilight, take that garbage off now. Except for the crown, you went total overkill.” Luna sighed.

Twilight made a noise halfway between a grunt and a moan of disapproval as she re entered her room.

Coming out five minutes later, she was her normal self.

“Twilight, Andrew here will be staying with you for twenty four hours starting now.” Luna told the mare as they group walked towards the elevator.

“What? Why?” Twilight was shocked.

“Because it’s your first time here along with Andrews and I think having him by your side would make you feel a little bit safer when we’re out and about.” Luna stated.

Twilight sighed once again.

“Very well Luna.”

“Fantastic! ANdrew now has to comply with any order you give him for twenty four hours.” Luna said in a nonchalant way.

“He does?” Twilight asked.

“Yes of course. I told him to do so and he is also obligated to follow that rule since we are on diplomatic travels” Luna made her point clear as Twilight relented.

As they descended to the lobby, Twilight eased a little bit closer to Andrew, almost as if she was testing how close she could get to Andrew. Luna noticed and let out a small giggle.

As the doors opened, they three diplomats were greeted with loud drum music and cheering.

“LUNA! MY DEAR FRIEND!” A loud voice with a heavy Zebrican accent made its way over the din.

Andrew stepped in front of Luna automatically. A zebra with a large mohawk and green eyes stepped forward. He wore traditional Zebrican clothing and had a large grin on his face.

“Andrew dear, it’s alright.” Luna said, brushing him aside a little bit.

Luna embraced the zebra in a hug and gestured towards Andrew and Twilight.

“Zulu, this is Princess Twilight Sparkle and our personal guard and escort, Andrew.” Luna introduced them both.

“I am Zulu, the foreign ambassador to this great and fertile land! Pleasure to meet you Princess Twilight and Andrew, erm...” Zulu put a hoof to his chin.

“He is a human. One of only two in all of existence here!” Luna gloated.

“So he’s your pet then?” Zulu asked.

Luna’s eyes sharpened.

“Absolutely not Zulu! He is one of my very close friends and my personal protector. Well not for now at least.” Luna trailed off at the end.

“Whatever do you mean?” Zulu asked, his eyebrows going up.

“It means that I am with Twilight for the first day as this is her first time in Zebrica.” Andrew said over the din.

Zulu looked shocked that Andrew could talk, but quickly collected himself.

“Well that might be an issue.” Zulu said, looking skyward to regain his train of thought.

“Ah yes! We have arranged for Princess Twilight to go on a 3 day adventure in the wilds of our beautiful land.” Zulu exclaimed with excitement.

“WHAT?!” Both Twilight and Andrew looked at the zebra with wide eyes and Luna looked smug.

“You knew about this didn’t you?” Andrew looked over at Luna with an exasperated look on his face.

“I might have.” She giggled.

Twilight just sighed and tapped Andrew on the upper arm.

“Yeah Twi?” Andrew said, leaning down to listen to the mare.

“Listen, Luna told me what she had in mind before this whole thing went down. I just didn’t expect this. I’m assuming we’re going to have to sleep together to conform with the culture or even for safety, so just make me one promise?” Twilight asked.

“Shoot.” Andrew said.

“Don’t do anything without me saying so.” Twilight winked and gave Andrew a coy grin.

Andrew was stunned.

“The perk of being an alicorn is that we can communicate without speaking.” She said, the grin still on her face.

“So I’m assuming she told you that you have her consent?” Andrew said, now it was his turn for an exasperated sigh.

“Yep. Also, I’m going to reword what I said a second ago. You will be sleeping in bed with me for my ‘protection’” She made air quotes.

Andrew felt helpless, and he was. After all, he had to take orders from Twilight as if she were Luna.

Yet, he might just enjoy his three day adventure after all.

He and Twilight were led out by Zulu to a local train to a nearby village where they would start their little safari.
