True Feelings?
Welp, this is boring, Shining thought gloomily as he stood near the refreshments table. There was a party going on in the Crystal Empire, but it’s not like one of Pinkie Pie’s raving parties; nope, it’s as boring and as sophisticated as the Grand Galloping Gala. Delegates from all across Equestria annually gather to a kingdom and had come to, Shining Armor guessed: “To reunite our nation.”
After each party, they all discuss certain issues with their country, but Shining hardly listened anyone during the meetings. It’s not that he didn’t care for them, it’s just that...well…there was always this one unicorn that was eyeing him. And I don’t mean just staring at him, I mean he looks like he wants to devour him. To make it even worse, he’s not inconspicuous about it, there are times he’ll eye-fuck him right when every single delegate is gathered in one room and no one cares. They just go on and pretend like nothing is even happening. It really freaks him out! There was one time he asked around to see what the king’s deal was, but everyone always just said: “He’s lonely after his divorce.”
…Bull shit!
There’s one thing to be lonely and there’s another to just be plain creepy. So, as a chance of survival, this year he’s staying by the refreshments table and boy…it is so boring! You’d think somepony would at least ask if he was alright, but here is just getting more bored by the second. He’d find more excitement in watching snails race through molasses. Did I mention how bored he was?
He answered, “You looked lonely, and I thought I might as well comfort you.”
I don’t like the way he said comfort , Shining thought fearfully, as he backed up a bit more. He looked out into the crowd, hoping to find an opening. Unfortunately for Shining Armor, the stallion noticed this and wrapped a foreleg around Shining’s midsection and pulled him in close. This caused a “meep” sound to come from Shining, which caused the stallion to smile widely. Struggling out of his grip, Shining grunted, “Look, your majesty-”
The unicorn interrupted, “Please Shining Armor, we can drop that formality we aren’t around the other delegates,” he pointed towards the filled ballroom completely avoiding the refreshment area (seriously, what’s the point of having this here?). He continued, “Just call me Sombra,” he rolled the “r” in his name seductively. This caused Shining to blush, but he turned his head to avoid being seen. The prince sighed and went on, “Look…Sombra, I don’t understand why you want me, but-”
“It’s because you’re too adorable,” Sombra interrupted once again. Hearing this, Shining began to blush even harder. He pushed against Sombra’s side and got out of his grip. Sombra looked a little hurt, but when back to his stupid (sexy?) grin. Shining continued, “Look, I’m not interested in you.”
“I know.”
“Now, I…Wait, what? You know?” Shining asked completely confused with what happened. If he knew he wasn’t interested, then why was he pursuing? Sombra replied, “Of course I know. I’m not an idiot.”
Shining exclaimed, “Then why are you trying to…get to me?”
“Well, because I just thought that you would be the one to mend this broken heart. You’re kind-hearted, loyal, and welcoming. I believed if anyone could make me feel like there’s actually hope in this world, it’d be you,” Shining gawked at these words and actually felt terrible for being so cold. That’s until Sombra said, “I also enjoy seeing you squirm and would love to see you in a nurse’s outfit.”
Shining retorted, “You’re a disgusting asshole.”
“And you’re prudent,” Sombra mocked snidely back. Shining scoffed, “I’d rather be prudent than a whiny bastard who thinks he can have his way just because his wife left him!”
This caused something to snap inside of Sombra. He yelled, “I’d rather be a whiny bastard than an ignorant foal who married a bitch for a wife who sucks more at cocks than at her job!”
Shining-literally-growled and pushed Sombra against the refreshment table, which caused Sombra to hook onto a punch bowl behind him, fall, and have the drink spill over him. This caused the patrons to turn and gasp at what they saw. Finally getting over his anger, Shining bit his lip at his realization. Sombra slowly got to his hooves and took the walk of shame towards the bathroom. Before Shining could apologize, he heard someone call, “Shining Armor!”
He gulped and slowly turned towards the voice. The pony who called him was an alicorn with a soft pink coat, purple, yellow, and hot pink streaked mane, and light purple eyes. He answered nervously, “Uh…Cadence, honey! W-What’s the problem?”
She stomped her hoof on the ground and shouted, “You know exactly what the problem is! How could you do that to King Sombra? He’s the most ruthless ruler that Rein (Spain) has ever had! He sent a pony in the dungeons just for mocking his morning attire, for pony’s sake!”
“…What’s his morning attire?” Shining questioned back, slightly curious and trying to lighten the mood. Cadence’s eye twitched. She sighed, “That’s not the point! The point is that you made a mockery of him! Who knows what he’ll do? You need to apologize!”
“But, Cadence he was basically harassing me! You don’t know what he was doing,” explained Shining. Cadence and a few other ponies were shocked to hear that Sombra would harass somepony. Sure, he was a cold-blooded king at times, but he wouldn’t stoop so low as harassment. She asked concerned, “What!? Harass? Well, what did he do?”
Shining answered, “He tried to get me to like him.”
The whole room went dead silent and everyone gave Shining Armor a look saying are-you-really-serious. He looked around the room feeling uncomfortable at the amount of eyeballs on him. A pony shouted, “You’re a douche! ”
Shining sighed, “Fine; I’ll go an apologized.”
Inside the bathroom, Shining saw Sombra cleaning himself off with wet towels. He was even scrubbing at the red stains on his suit. In the mirror, Sombra looked completely livid and it made the prince really uneasy. Shining took a deep breath and cleared his throat. Sombra turned his head around and slightly growled, “Oh, it’s you.”
Shining sighed, “Look, Sombra. I’m really sorry. I was just so shocked at what you were doing and when you insulted me and Cadence, I snapped. I’m sorry. I really am.”
Sombra stopped scrubbing at his suit and corrected, “No, it’s my fault. I was angrier at myself than you. You’re right.”
The confused prince walked up to the disheartened king and queried, “Right? What was I right about?”
Shining shook his head and consoled, “You have no reason to feel disgusted! Your wife’s the one who cheated and left you. I may not know exactly how you feel, but I do understand that being lonely can make you think and do some crazy things like thinking you fell in love with a married stallion,” Shining placed a hoof on Sombra’s shoulder and went on, “I believe you will find someone you really connect with. And you will make that mare or even stallion really happy.”
Sombra smiled and asked, “You think so?”
“Yeah, I do,” Shining responded with a smile back. He thought to himself, maybe I had it all wrong, maybe Sombra isn’t too bad of a pony. He snapped out of his thoughts when he heard Sombra say; “You’re wrong.”
Shining cocked his head in bewilderment. Sombra chuckled at the movement and clarified, “You were wrong about me thinking I fell in love with a married stallion. I did fall in love with a married stallion.”
He started taking steps towards Shining, who slowly backed up until he was perched on top of a toilet. Sombra finished, “And I don’t care how long it takes because I know this stallion shares the same feelings as I.”
Before Shining could protest, lips came crashing down on his own. He muffled and thrashed in the kiss, but soon found himself relaxing. Sombra smirked and pulled away from Shining, which caused the prince to whimper. The king whispered seductively, “So, Shiny, do you still doubt your feelings~?”
Shining blushed and stuttered, “I-I-I d-don-mmm~ ”
Shining wasn’t able to finish, due to Sombra slowly massaging his member and planting kisses on his neck. Sombra lapped up the prince’s neck and breathed hotly, “You taste so good, mi corazon~. But, I want to taste more of you~ ”
Shining just whimpered in response as Sombra started massaging his penis rougher. Sombra leered over the prince and started using his magic to unbutton Shining’s suit. Shining’s face got reddened when Sombra licked his lips at the sight. Shining breathed, “S-Sombra-ah! Am I g-g-gonna get mmm …eaten?”
Sombra smirked and answered, “Yes~ I want to devour you~”
Before Sombra could start “devouring” Shining, a knock was heard on the door and a voice asked, “Are you two okay in there?”
Sombra growled, “Yes, Cadence we’re fine.”
“Well, c’mon out. Some of the other diplomats are worried,” Cadence informed the two. The two heard hoofsteps get fainter and assumed Cadence left the door. Sombra got off from Shining, despite Shining’s whining. Shining got up and started buttoning his suit again, looking completely flustered. Before Shining could ask, Sombra said, “We will continue next time.”
Sombra rolled his eyes and looked down. He informed, “Right. Before you leave out, you might want to take care of that.”
Shining looked down and blushed furiously at his proud cock raised high. Sombra laughed as he walked out of the bathroom. Shining just shook his head and repeated, “I’m not in love. I’m not in love. I’m not in love.”
When Shining Armor left out of the bathroom, he spotted Sombra and Cadence chatting and laughing. He felt a shiver go down his spine when he saw Sombra glance at him. He took a deep breath and walked over to the two. He asked, “Hey, how’s it going?”
Cadence beamed and hugged her husband. He looked at Sombra in confusion, who just stood and smiled. Thanks for the help, dick, Shining thought disdainfully. Cadence let go of Shining and exclaimed, “Thank you so much for apologizing! Sombra said how you were so courteous to him, that you were practically begging for him to forgive you!”
Shining wanted to glare at the king, but thought it wouldn’t be best in front of his wife. Cadence went on, “As a matter of fact, he’s so pleased, Sombra decided that he’s going to be staying in the Crystal Empire for a whole week!”
Shining gawked and was left speechless. She hugged her husband again and gleefully said, “I know I was speechless too. I can’t believe he’s staying! This can bring a whole lot of publicity to the Crystal Empire, you know!”
Once she let go, again, she left the two by themselves. Sombra walked over to Shining and closed his jaw for him. He chuckled, “I can’t wait to continue from where we ended,” he bent down to his and whispered passionately, “my sweet prince~ ”
He left Shining Armor blushing and repeating in his head, I’m not in love. I’m not in love. I’m not in love. I’m not in love!

YAY! I finally got it done!
Warning: This chapter contains M/M smut! DON'T READ IF YOU'RE NOT COMFORTABLE!
First Time
Shining Armor laid down in bed with his head buried underneath a bunch of pillows. Why? Well, he’s hoping that he can sleep the day away, so he can get away from his living nightmare. The last thing he’d want to do is bump into the lustful king and end up getting…taken. So, he thought the best thing to do was to hide inside his and Cadence’s bedroom. Unfortunately, Cadence thought his plan was childlike. She walked over to his side of the bed and asked, “You’re seriously just gonna stay in bed?”
Shining let out a muffled “mmhmm”. Cadence rolled her eyes and consoled, “Look, despite what you told me last night, I don’t think you should take this so harshly.”
Shining got out from underneath the pillows and sent Cadence a heated glare. Cadence ignored the glare and continued, “I mean if Sombra goes too far, then maybe you can just tell him to back off.”
“Oh yeah, that’ll definitely work. Did I forget to mention that he said he’s going to keep pursuing until I fall in love with him!? By the way, nice job on letting him stay!” Shining seethed. Well, someone’s going to be sleeping on the couch, Cadence thought very crossly. It wasn’t her fault! She didn’t know exactly why Sombra wanted to stay in the first place. Sure, he said it was because Shining pleaded for forgiveness, but she thought it was just to help with the Crystal Empire. Although, from what she learned last night, he obviously had other intentions. She watched curiously as Shining re-buried his head underneath his pillow. She repeated, “So, no getting out of bed?”
She saw the pillows move up and down, showing that Shining nodded. Cadence sighed and walked towards the bedroom door in silence, leaving Shining alone in his confusion and frustration. When he heard the door close, he took his head out, rolled over onto his back, and stared at the ceiling, deep in thought. Why am I feeling this way? That was the first time I even talked to Sombra and yet when I think about last night I get flustered. Well, I’m pretty sure anyone would, if they knew what I went through. Not only that, but I have to endure him for a whole week! God dammit! I fucking hate him! Shining thought heatedly.
Shining sighed loudly. Well, if his plan works, he won’t have to ever leave out his room and see Sombra. Shining questioned aloud, “I wonder: What was he gonna do to me?”
He was interested, just curious. He hasn’t ever had sex with a stallion, but he has seen it accidentally before and it left him slightly aroused.
Although, he never thought he would actually to come to having sex with another male. Which still didn’t answer his question: What would he do!?
Feeling a little exhausted from his mental outburst, he thought it was best to sleep this off.
Creeaaakkk thud
Shining woke up startled when he heard his door open and close. He looked outside the window and gawked. It was nighttime! How long was he asleep!?
He heard hoofsteps coming toward his side of the bed, but couldn’t tell who it was due to the inky blackness. Assuming it was Cadence, he yawned, “Sorry, Cady. I didn’t mean to stay in bed for too long.”
The figure in the dark did not answer, it only got closer to his side of the room. Feeling a bit scared, he called, but mostly asked, “C-Cadence?”
The hoofsteps stopped right in front of him. He backed up a bit in fear of the figure. He shouted, “Who are you!?”
After he asked that, fire ruby eyes met with Shining’s cool blue eyes. Shining’s pupils shrunk and he stuttered, “S-S-Sombra?”
The same you’re-fucked-grin came back, his fangs shined in the darkness. Sombra purred, “We weren’t able to finish last night~”
Shining Armor tried to scramble to the other side of the bed, fruitlessly trying to escape from Sombra. Unfortunately, Sombra used his magic to pull his escaper towards him. Shining still tried to get away, but the pull of the magic was to strong. When he was close enough, Sombra used his magic to flip Shining onto his back. Shining shivered when he saw the hungry look Sombra was giving him. Shining whimpered, “D-Don’t do t-this. I-I d-d-don’t want this.”
Sombra crawled up on top of Shining and queried, “Really~? You don’t want this~? You didn’t seem to mind last night~”
Before Shining could protest, Sombra slowly lapped up the side of his neck, taking little nips too. Shining bit his lip to keep himself silent and closed his eyes in hopes it’ll be over soon. Sombra purred in content at Shining’s sweet taste. Sombra went back up and bit on the tip of Shining’s ear. Shining bit his lip even harder, drawing out a trace of blood. He felt something wet go across his lips. He opened his eyes and saw Sombra licking up the blood. Shining’s face began burning red hot. Sombra leaned back and smirked. He leered, “You’re so beautiful when you blush~”
Shining’s face got hotter. He turned his head and stammered, “Sh-Shut up.”
Sombra leaned down and kissed Shining sweetly on the lips, which caused his lover to whimper. He smirked and went back to his ministrations. He began kissing down Shining’s chest and stomach, which caused the smaller unicorn to shudder and squirm. I can’t believe I’m allowing him to do this and that I actually-, Shining’s thoughts got interrupted, when he felt that Sombra was near his hardened penis. Sombra stopped in front of the member and looked up at Shining. Oh, now you wait for my approval!
Shining gulped, but, hesitantly, nodded. Feeling overjoyed, Sombra went back up kissed Shining, roughly. This caused the other to moan, not afraid to show that he like the kiss. When Sombra back away, he went back down to the hardened member and started licking the head. The prince threw his head back and moaned loudly, which made Sombra smile at his sensitivity. Sombra licked up and down from the tip to the hilt, making sure to go slow to make Shining squirm. Shining thrashed about, feeling like a bunch of fireworks were going off in his head and heat was scorching his body. He never would admit it aloud, but he was enjoying…no, loving it.
Sombra stopped for a bit, causing Shining to groan, “W-W-What’re you doing?”
Sombra crawled back up Shining’s body, he licked the shell of his ear, and whispered, “Wake up.”
Shining woke up, breathing shallowly, and his forehead drenched in sweat. He looked around the bedroom and outside, it seemed like it was only noon. He put a hoof to his chest and said, “It was all a dream…thank Celestia.”
He sighed as he fell back onto his pillows, feeling content. Unfortunately, the feeling didn’t last, when he felt discomfort between his legs. His eyes widened as he threw off the covers. His jaw dropped when he saw his penis was still hard and swollen. Feeling like there was no other way, he reached down, and began stroking his penis. He breathed heavily as he thought about the dream. He thought about every sensation and shudder that went through his body. He even thought about how Sombra stared at him, as if he was the most delectable dessert he’s ever seen. Sombra, Sombra, Sombra, what are you doing to-
Shining moaned as he came all over the bed. He stared half-lidded at the puddle of white semen at the end of the bed. He sighed and thought, How am I gonna explain this to Cadence?
“Shining Armor?” A voice asked, almost as if it was breathless. Shining stared up and gawked.
Shining just stared at Sombra straight in the eyes, completely shocked. What was he supposed to say? Sombra had just watched him cum all over the bed! He wasn’t even paying attention if he had said anything at all! …Did he say anything? Shining thought, Oh shit! Oh shit! What am I gonna do!?
Shining nervously chuckled, “Oh, uh hey, Sombra. What are you doing here?” He finished, blushing in embarrassment while his tail covered his flaccid penis. Sombra blinked a few time before answering, “W-well, C-Cadence told me t-t-to go apologize…did you just masturbate!?”
Shining was about to get off the bed, but was stopped when he felt Sombra place his hoof on his inner thigh. Shining closed his eyes and bit his tongue to hold back a whimper. Still with his eyes closed, he felt Sombra slowly crawl up his body growling (purring?) with lust. Sombra purred, “Shining, you have no idea how hard it was for me not to fuck you~ ”
Shining felt his breath get shallower and quicker. Shining bent down his ears to block out his seducer’s words. Sombra chuckled at his attempt, thinking it was adorable, and licked up his right ear, which perked very easily. The lustful king whispered, “Believe me, I tried my damned hardest too~ But, seeing your face completely flushed, watching you stroke your cock, and hearing those gorgeous whimpers; I’m still surprised I didn’t take you sooner~ ”
As Sombra went on, Shining squirmed when he felt his thigh get squeezed, and felt Sombra’s member rubbing up against his entrance. If he bit any harder on his, he’d probably might end biting it off. Sombra smiled devilishly as he saw Shining trying so hard not to give in, but he knew his prince give in.
Sombra let go of Shining’s thigh, which made the latter sigh in relief, and placed both his hooves on both sides of Shining’s head. Feeling this movement, Shining slowly opened his eyes and unclenched his tongue. He gasped when he saw Sombra’s eyes intensely burning red with mischievous. Shining stammered, “W-what are y-y-you th-”
Shining gasped loudly when he felt Sombra’s cock go halfway inside of him. Both royals shivered at the intense pleasure and pain. Sombra groaned, “Oh fuck! If you, holy Celestia, want me to continue, just say those th-three beautiful words for me~ ”
Still shivering, Shining cocked his head to the side, confused. What words is he talking about? Did I…wait, I did say something before I came. No! No! Don’t say anything!
Shining just tucked his head down, stubbornly. Sombra growled and then teased Shining’s bud by slowly moving his cock in and out. Shining quietly moaned and unconsciously clenched up. Sombra moaned loudly at Shining’s tightness, wondering how he was even going to get through this. He moaned, “Oh you’re so amazingly tight! C’mon Shining just say it, I can’t last much longer~ ”
You and me both , Shining though fervently. Shining gasped when he felt Sombra increase his tempo, knowing that the king was impatient. Shining squirmed underneath Sombra, but somehow still kept his mouth. Sombra, on the other hoof, was moaning as loudly possible, not even caring if Cadence came in and saw them. He wanted Shining Armor for so long, and no one will take that from…Sombra shouted, “Oh fuck! I’m so close!”
Right after he said, Sombra slammed his dick right into Shining’s prostate. Shining’s eyes bulged and he moaned, “OH FUCK! Fuck me harder, Sombra! Oh please, Sombra!”
Sombra stopped for second, only a second, and then grinned seductively at his lover. He whispered, “As you wish~ ”
Sombra made sure to his that bundle of nerves each time, just to drive Shining crazy. Shining Armor now held on to Sombra as he was ruthlessly fucked, not even caring how whore-ish he sounded. Even though he would never tell Sombra, he actually wanted this for a while, as well. Shining got distracted by loud thumping noises, and noticed that Sombra was fucking him so hard to the point where the bed was hitting the wall. He looked up to tell Sombra to cool it, but once he faced Sombra, he was met with crashing lips and a wrapping around his own. Sombra growled in Shining mouth, while Shining moaned in his.
After a few more thrusts, Sombra knew he was at his limit. He whimpered, “Shining- ”
Shining nodded and whimpered, as well, “I-I kn-know. It’s f-f-fine.”
Sombra put in on last hard thrust and came inside of Shining Armor, while Shining cummed on both him and Sombra. The two breathed heavily while staring into each other’s eyes. Sombra slowly pulled of Shining, who winced slightly. Sombra collapsed on top of Shining, kissed him on the forehead, and whispered possessively, “Mine.”
Before Shining could even respond, he ended up slowly falling asleep.

I hope you all end liking this chapter. I wanted to take a smut approach to this chapter, but it ended up turning into fluff. This is kind of my first time at writing fluff, so please let me know if I did alright. Anyway, enjoy and please leave a comment! Also, I'm not sure if I want to end this here or not, so please let me know what you think
A Thoughtful Night
Shining groggily opened his eyes and hissed a bit when he felt burning, tingling pain on down his back. He groaned, "Why is my-"
He ended up stopping dead cold when he heard a loud snore in his ear. He turned to the side and saw Sombra lying in his bed, cuddling him. Shining covered his mouth, so that he won't let out a squeak. He stopped for a bit and stared at the handsome (you mean beastly) stallion, just to make sure he didn't wake him by his movements. He jumped when he saw Sombra move and snort, but relaxed when Sombra turned (unfortunately carrying Shining over with him). Now on Sombra's stomach, Shining-without a choice-laid his head on his, uh, welly acquainted friend's chest and thought. Okay, I'm lying on the stallion that has liked me for a while now, and we are both kind of…sticky. Gross. But, that doesn't mean anything, right? It could mean anything, not just sex. We could've ended up fighting and each other, and it's just blood. Yeah…even I don't believe that, Shining Armor thought sullenly and panicky. He froze again when he felt Sombra shift a bit in his position. Now, Sombra placed his head on top of Shining's murmuring something. Whatever he said, it must've been happy thought. He's smiling.
Shining sighed and closed his eyes to think, but he opened them up again when he noticed how dark it was. If he were to guess, it had to be about 7 or 8pm. How long were they asleep for and how long did their se…fight last? Shining cautiously moved his hoof up to rub the back of his head in frustration. He just couldn't think straight, maybe because there's a head filled with a gigantic ego on top of his! He sighed and whispered, "Well, I guess it could be worse. He could have an irrepressible urge to fuck me again. Haha. …Why am I laughing about that?"
Shining softly face-hooved. His eyes roamed to Sombra's face (or at least what he could see of it) and noticed how calm he looked. It was weird to see him smiling opposed to his annoying, condescending smirking, but it wasn't uninvited. Silently and not willing to admit to anyone, thought it was actually kind of charming. Shining frowned and whispered, "I can't believe I even came to that thought. C'mon, Shining Armor he basically raped you! Sure, you may have enjoyed a teeny bit, but that doesn't mean anything. I mean it's not like I could do anything, he's stronger and bulkier than me. If he wanted to, he could easily knock me out with one punch!"
He looked back up Sombra, who, apparently, moved his head back on top the pillows. He still a content smile on his face and Shining felt Sombra's chest vibrate, almost as if he's purring again. He never really took in how gentle he looked. He almost looked like a litter kittens lying on top of one another, having little shy smiles in their faces, and dreaming happy thoughts…or something. Shining sighed, "Okay, maybe he couldn't punch me. He doesn't look that threatening, at least, not now."
Shining jumped a bit when he felt Sombra run his hoof up and down his back. He relaxed a bit at the feeling and actually started feeling calm. Heck, he even started feeling bad about…Wait! I can't like this! Don't you remember he claimed you as his own!? That's fucking stupid! Who…does…, his thoughts began trailing off when he started getting serener. Shining started feeling tired again, as he listened to the somewhat quiet rumbling and beating in Sombra's chest.
Sombra turned over again in his sleep and turned him and Shining back onto their sides. He whispered, "I love you so much."
Shining woke up a bit at hearing this, sure this isn't the first time Sombra has said this to him, but this time there was no sexual undertone to it, he didn't want to see Shining squirm, and he didn't expect Shining to look fearful and get kick out of the expression. He meant it, and took him to be asleep to say it. Shining blushed a bit, unsure on how to express himself. Instead, he just ended up-he swears it just happened like that-cuddling closer to Sombra, bearing his face into his chest.
This little amount of movement was enough to wake Sombra. He fluttered his eyes open and looked down at Shining, smiling. But, the smile soon turned to surprise when he saw that Shining was snuggling close to his chest. Blushing shyly, Sombra whispered, "Shining, what are you do-"
Shining interrupted with a question, "Did Cadence ever come in?"
Sombra's hope for love fluttered away when he asked about Cadence. He sighed, "Yes, but I told her that you were too tired to leave out your room. She didn't question why I was in the bed with you. She's the Princess of Love for fuck's sake! She can figure it out."
Shining noticed the venomous malice in Sombra's voice when talking about Cadence. Not wanting to ruin the good feelings before, Shining mumbled, "Ilikeyou."
Sombra's eyes widened a bit. No, no. This isn't real. This has to be a dream, Sombra thought upsettingly and confusingly. He asked, "Wh-What did you say?"
The prince took his face away from the king's chest, looked up at him, and repeated, "I-I, uh, I mean this is no guarantee, but, you know, I sort of l-l-like you."
There was no answer, no emotion, and not even a snarky glint in Sombra's eyes. There was nothing, but silence. Shining rubbed his hooves together underneath the covers, feeling a bit embarrassed. Of course he didn't expect me to say that. He only wanted sex, I knew that in the first place. So, why am I getting upset about this? Shining thought depressingly. He put his head back on the frozen king's chest and reassured, "You know what it was stupid of me to even th-think of saying that. I-I just heard you say it in your sleep," he looked up and saw Sombra's eyes widen further. He felt so stupid saying this. Feeling his eyes sting, he buried his face further in his chest and sighed, "I'm sorry. Let's just go back to-mmm!"
Shining got interrupted by Sombra lifting his head and placing his lips softly onto Shining's. Shining felt heat rush across the bridge of his nose. Before he could respond back, Sombra let go of his lips. Sombra said, "I sort of like you."
Shining's blush got redder when he heard him say that. He noticed that Sombra was smiling honestly like when he was asleep, which made Shining know that he wasn't going do anything forward. Sombra started rubbing Shining's back again, causing him to relax. Sombra suggested, "Why don't we go to sleep?"
Shining nodded tiredly. The two cuddled closely with another and drifted happily to sleep.
