A forbidden romance between a Princess and a Wonderbolt...

A forbidden romance between a Princess and a Wonderbolt... could this result in a happily ever after or is it just not meant to be? (Cover photo as drawn by me. Please do not post this anywhere unless you give my tumblr blog - askprincessdreamcatcher.tumblr.com - full credit. Thank you!)

The Princess' Chamber

Chapter 3. The Princess' Chamber

The chamber was stunning. the wall was ablaze with jewels reflecting light, Glass doors to the balcony which was covered in gold detail. The floor looked as if it was made of stars, bright and beautiful. However the chandelier was not lit. The light was coming from the soft turquoise glow of the princess' horn. Slash lit his horn which gave off a pale blue light. He opened his wings and flew over to her.
"You made it!" the Princess spoke with a look of joy on her face.
"wouldn't of missed it for the world, your majesty." said Slash sincerely.
"Please call me Dream Catcher." the Princess corrected him.
"Okay then, Dream Catcher," he said inquisitively "what do you want me for?"
"Have you ever heard of love at first sight?" asked Dream Catcher. She was falling for Slash, the male alicorn which stood before her in his wonder bolt costume. Slash blushed as Dream Catcher walked over to him. It seemed like time had slowed down as she grew closer and closer. Finally she stopped. She leaned in, passionately kissing him and that started it all.

The Note

Chapter 5. The Note

Slash heard a knock at the door. He paused eating his breakfast and getting ready for training.
"Who is it?" He yelled through the house.
"Hello Mr.Slash, its me Derpy!" called the grey mail mare. "I've got a letter for you!"
"Thank you Derpy, are you sure it's the right letter?" he asked.
"I'm sure this time!" and with that, the grey pegasus was on her way.
He unfolded the scroll which was floating in front of him. It said:
Dear Slash the Wonderbolt,
I can't get you out of my head, we must see each other again soon. I'll come to your house at precisely1:00PM
Lovingly,

Princess Dream Catcher

He looked at the clock. 12:30. He only had half an hour left! Slash finished breakfast and tidied the house for Dream Catcher.

The Morning After

Chapter 4. The Morning After

Dream Catcher awoke early as usual feeling very ashamed as the sun rose above the hills. She had forgotten to prevent nightmares that night for she had been busy with Slash. The only night she was aloud to let nightmares loose was on Nightmare Night. Not only that but she had fallen in love, just like her sister told her not to. But this was different. He was an alicorn just like her. Maybe Celestia would approve of it and if her heart got broken, Luna would always be there. She trotted over to the balcony, spread her wings and flew away, closing the doors with a loud bang and a blue glow.

Slash yawned as he opened his eyes to see his alarm clock. He slept in again. Later than usual, it was now 11:30 AM but then again, he was out all night with Dream Catcher. Dream Catcher. He just couldn't get that mare out of his head. Her caramel coloured mane and tail, not as long as Celestia's or Luna's manes and tails nor did it flow like theirs. In fact it was rather like Rainbow Dash's friend Fluttershy's mane and tail. Her turquoise body with tall legs that had some things like the gold on Celestia's hooves, except they were the same caramel colour as her mane. Her blue eyes that glisten in the moonlight and her wings, clearly built for speed. Her horn gave off a blue glow that matched the colour of her eyes. Princess Dream Catcher was the most beautiful mare he had ever seen and he was going to see her again.

A New Beginning

Love Struck

Chapter 1. A New Beginning
"Slash, its getting late, you should leave before my sisters find out!" The Princess said worryingly.
"Chill Dream Catcher, I'm sure they wouldn't care if they found out about us!" The Wonderbolt stated soothingly.
The couple were an uncommon duo. There was Slash the Wonderbolt with a pale blue coat and blonde mane which looked as if it was being blown by the wind and had a shine to it, he had the average male figure and his cutie mark was a blue star because he was got A Star (the grade) at flight school. Then there was Princess Dream Catcher the turqoise alicorn with a deep beige coloured mane which as styled simalar to Fluttershy's. Her cutie mark was a microphone because she sings to rid ponies across Equestria of bad dreams each night. The only thing they really had in common was the fact that they're both alicorns.
It had all started at the gala when Dream Catcher had gone outside for the party was overwhelming. There were a few ponies around but most ponies were engaged in conversation and she didn't want to interupt, after all princesses were meant to be polite! She had always wanted to know what it was like to love even though Celestia had once warned her not to because she would lose her special somepony because other ponies are mortal unlike her. She saw one stallion that caught her eye - probably due to the blue and yellow wonderbolt costume - who was alone, staring at the large jewelled fountain so plucked up her courage and walked over. The stallion immediately bowed down to the princess.
"What's your name?" asked Dream Catcher inquisitively.
"Slash" replied the stallion. Dream Catcher battered her eyelashes hoping he would pick up on it. "I think you're flirting with me missus!" he said cheekily.
"Well maybe I am!" she liked the fact that Slash was picking up on it and decided to try something a bit more forward. "My Room. 12. Be there."
"S-sure" He wasn't sure what else to say.

To The Room!

Chapter 2. To The Room

Slash felt a combination of nerve and curiosity as he advanced down the corridor. A strong vanilla scent lingered in the air, the light was dim and flickered occasionally. The corridor was a subtle beige tone and the carpet was deep, royal blue. It seemed like he had been walking for hours when he came to a staircase, slowly he advanced up the stairs and found yet another long corridor. This corridor had light purple walls and a dark purple carpet. There was now freshly baked cookies in he air and a slight bit of marzipan. There were fancy patterns - a gold colour - across the hand rail that ran along the sides of the wall. After Slash had reached the end there was a door. A huge, beautiful, fancy door. It's handle's were encrusted with tanzanite and the door itself in a gorgeous variety of jewels - there were rubies, sapphires, alexandrite, emeralds, peridot, crystals and moonstone - which just added to its beauty. This must be the chamber that belonged to the stunning alicorn he had met the night before. He dare not touch the encrusted handles so he used his magic to open the doors and flew over to the tall, turqoise, blonde maned alicorn.
