Was it a good day? For Princess Twilight Sparkle, it actually was. She woke up early, even earlier than she got used to, she had enough time in her margin to attend the most important royal duties, that she had planned on today. At the afteroon,when all important things was successfully finished, Twilight made a decision to take a day off. There’s no good work if you never allow yourself to distract and reestablish your energy, she thought while she was walking back to library alongside the narrow, long, empty street.
Despite her being totally clean and tidy like such a good girl always ought to be she felt herself completely messed up and untidy. Her snow white qualitative shirt from expensive cotton was perfectly ironed, her long dark skirt hadn’t a single issue aswell, it fit her well and added even more grace to her good figure. Princess of Friendship just wanted to take a quick shower and lain in her warm comfortable bed for the rest of day. Not even ‘hitting up’ her most beloved books, not engaging her brain with science but just resting under the blankets for many hours.
As soon as she entered her library and door was locked with a new latch Twilight headed to the bathroom, hoping on presence.
Shower didn’t take much of Twilight’s time. As a good habit she claimed with her experience, she never wasted extra time in bathroom. The reason was obvious: schedule may not be violated.
Slowly pushing wooden door open with her foot, she walked back in her bedroom, her body wrapped up with long bath towel. Thin, almost invisible layer of steam oozed in the room through the opened door, like it followed after the purple book lover.
“Oh, now, where’s my pajamas? I will freeze, if I won’t find it as fast as I could” Twilight thought, rushing around the bedroom. She used her magic to open all the chests,commodes and drawers. Her effort was worth it and finally she found it. Light-pink shirt and pants, folded in a perfect way like if she used a ruler. They layed in the lowest drawer of wooden nightstand above other clothes, folded as good as pajamas.
That pair was another generous gift from Rarity. Thin and delicate, moreover warm fabric, unique design, delicate slot for alicorn wings and a cutiemark picture on the back. All those factors made Twilight love these cute pajamas.
Finally, she changed her clothes, dried her mane with a fan, and now nothing can ruin her whole day of recovering her energy! Nothin-
*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*
Embittered half-snarl, half-groan was the only sound which escaped Twilight’s mouth. She tried to guess what happened. She told to everyone she knew that she will take a day off and would prefer not being distracted because of any simple trifle.
Putting the sneakers on, she got up, and headed downstairs, her mind tried to build up a forecast- who it was, and what did he, or she actually wanted. It was a Saturday; library is closed, and doesn’t lend any books.
Finally approaching the door, Twilight sighed and opened it.
“Hello Sparkle…” Familiar voice broke the silence.
It was Trixie Lulamoon, one of Twilight’s most cruel rivals. Dressed in her magician’s robe with the cute little white stars dotting all over the material, blue hat, pants, and white shoes.
Trixie blinked in surpise, since she never thought she would have a chance to see Princess in a pajamas. After that show mare tried to form a warm smile, but Twilight wasn’t happy to see her.
Instead, a sparkle of anger and scorn was born in bookworm’s usually kind and forgiving heart as she recognized her in a brief moment. Sparkle quickly turned in fire of rage, and angry frown replaced the smile on Twilight’s face.
It all stormed back in her memory.Fate has a mischeivous sense of humour. They accidentally bumped into each other in a local café, and their old conflicts surfaced again, even after Trixie’s apology, and some time they spent together. She wasn’t capable to remember what actually happened, she only remembered that Trixie gave too much freedom to her speech, and Twilight lost herself. She remembered how her hand swiftly raised in air and she gave her a slap. This wasn’t strongest one, but she caught Trixie off guard, and so she fell. Then she knew that she had left and directed in opposite direction.
Twilight came back to reality. She gazed onto Trixie coldly
“…Good bye, Lulamoon...” Twilight responded in a rude tone. She gave a chuckle, not the playful one, but chuckle of total hate, absurd, and disdain, her hand gripped the door handle and she slammed the door, created gust of air knocked Trixie’s hat down. Then, Twilight pushed her spine against the door, giving a sign that she will hardly open the door.
“He-hey! Would you be a dear and open the door?” - Trixie questioned
“No way. I am not talking to you!” - Twilight’s muffled bark came through the door, Trixie heard it clearly
anyways.
“Bu-but… Trixie just wanted to…well… ask you to forgive me…”
“Brainless hypocrite Celestial insole, who has no social life as you called me before is unavailable for you.”
“Trixie meaned none of it!”-Show mare loudly protested, putting her hat on again. “…You made me say this! You called me…me…you…” she tried to mutter something, but words dead in her mind before going out.
“And now you try to blame me?! Listen Trixie, I am tired of you, I highly recommend you to leave, unless I call royal guards!”
“Listen, Twilight… Trixie is sorry!”
“I’ve tried to forgive you so many times, it never worth it! Even when I was so polite and nice with you, you still insulted me, and yelled about your dominance above others! Do you know how this term called in psychology? Megalomania! You are most likely got a serious trauma in childhood, so you keep saying that Universe revolves around you! I tried to give you my soul, and make you kind, but now, I don’t want to talk and see you! Go away, and spend time with your friends! You have so many of them don’t you? Because you’re not someone’s insole like me!” Twilight said, hoping that will make her leave.
Those words had incredible effect on Trixie. She stepped aside and tried to breathe in, but it was hard. Show mare felt lump in the throat, her arms turned cold. After that, she sniffed, feeling edges of her eyes getting moist from tears. She had to struggle. She struggled.
But she lost.
After a brief moment, Trixie felt her eyes gotten very wet, she raised her arm, her eyes dove in her sleeve as her sobs and sniffs became loud enough for Twilight to hear them.
At first Twilight considered Trixie’s cry as her glorious and final victory but then she felt her heart was stabbed by her own feelings. It was very familiar to Trixie’s feels, when she realized how bad she behaved with mare who just wanted to help her.
“Well, if you find my company too disgusting *sniff* I will leave- *sob* But…Trixie *sob* haven’t got m-many friends to spend time with-“
“Trixie… Are you crying?”
“No, Trixie is not crying!” Trixie automatically protested, even though it was lie. “Great and Powerful Trixie never cries! Tears are for little fillies! Like you!”
Twilight unlocked door, and opened it a little, to have better communication. As she pushed door further, she saw Trixie devastated by tears.
“W-well, if things are THAT serious…” Bookworm thought and gently stroked Trixie’s shoulder. “Okay, okay, stop it, I dislike it…”
“N-no, don’t soothe me…It all was my fault…I have no friends, I am just pathetic filly…”
Twilight got some opposition from Trixie’s side, but she finally caught her in a hug, allowing show mare’s head rest on her shoulder. Twilight felt each shudder, each sob, it all made her heart fully melt down. After that, she noticed the fabric got wet because of tears, but she could bear it now.
“Okay…I will forgive you. But this is last time. I didn’t mean any of things I said to you either… And sorry for hitting you, I lost myself…”
“I deserved it, actually…” Trixie’s sobs decreased in a moment. “…Trixie swears she won’t be rude to you! Trixie may be cynic, cruel, self-centered, but she is not a liar…”
“Well, well…You are not that bad, come on…” Twilight retreated back and pulled Trixie after her, show mare obeyed, and they entered the room. Using her magic, she levitated a pile of paper napkins from the table, and wiped Trixie’s tears ever so gently, after closing the door.
Then, Twilight broke a hug, and sat on the right edge of sofa, crossing her legs.
“Better?” she whispered.
“Better,” Trixie said, rubbing her nose with a napkin. Sniffs and sobs from show mare’s side only came out occasionally.
After a minute, show mare fully recovered from her weakness and seat on opposite edge of sofa, gazing onto her ex-rival.
“So, uh…Maybe…we can…be …friends?” Twilight broke the silence, scratching her elbow nervously.
“Um… If that would be okay, I don’t mind making peace…True on this time… We used to fight each other so much that I can’t even say where I found so much energy…” Trixie muttered.
“Sorry for humiliating you…” Twilight whispered
“Sorry for being so unthankful to you…” Trixie replied, in the similar quiet voice.
“So… What’s about your shows?” Twilight attempted to switch on more pleasant topic, and turned to have Trixie in her sight.
“Well, I’ve recently learned some new tricks… Gave some performances yesterday…But they don’t give Trixie enough money to exist…Trixie…often starves…Trixie has some problems with place to stay…Her wagon is old and dirty” She gave an upset smile.
“This is bad…But hey! Guess what! We’re friends from now, aren’t we?”
“Sure…” Trixie doubtfully nodded.
“Will friend always support each other in a sticky situation?”
“Sure,”
Twilight leaned forward, revealing her alicorn wings for Trixie. “Trixie, what have I got behind me?” Her tone switched to a fake playful and kind style. She had some doubts about Trixie, she couldn’t call her a friend, but for building a friendship, fake playfulness was still better than real rudeness.
“W-wings?”
“That’s right, and what I’ve got on my head?”
“Well… horn… And what’s the matter? How can it actually help Trixie?”
“It means that I am Princess… Understand? Princess! I can provide you anything you need in a snap of finger!”
“No, no… I don’t think you should!” Trixie immediately protested, though she really wanted and needed a little help.
Another five minutes passed in the full silence. But then, Trixie started once again.
“Umm…Sparkle… Please don’t tell anyone, that I cried…They will make fun of me…And sorry for soaking your shirt with my tears…"
“It’s, it’s not a big problem, and sure, I can keep secrets…”
“Not that I am such a big crybaby, but sometimes my feels take over me...People will judge and tease me,”
“Oh, oh, don’t worry… You always have my shoulder to cry on…” Twilight tenderly placed her hand onto Trixie’s shoulder, and she gave a playful wink.
“Thank you…”
And then, Trixie remembered Twilight’s offer, and decided to ask a bold question, after making a long gasp of air.
“But… Can you only find me a place to live and sleep?”
“Hey, you can live with me… I sorta have a large bed, if you are fine with sharing, I don’t mind if you sleep with me!” Twilight beamed. Actually, she was up for everything to build a good relationship with her ex-rival. Despite everything that happened recently, now she was ready to confess to herself that she found Trixie… a little bit cute.
Trixie’s face turned crimson red, her eyes widen, and a long sigh escaped her mouth.
“Sleep with you? Like, sleep in one bed? Don’t you find it… a little awkward?” Show mare muttered.
Twilight recognized what did she just suggested only when her words returned to her, she coughed and nervously rubbed her nose as she felt her own cheeks getting hot from blushing.
“Yeah, it’s like…Uh… I don’t snore or anything…And we’re both girls, I won’t do something you will dislike…”
“But still…Uh…”
“…Well, if you are not okay with it, we may find some other ways…” Twilight didn’t let Trixie finish.
“No! Trixie would be honored to share a bed with princess!”
“Really?” Twilight’s eyes widen, she moved even closer to Trixie.
“Trixie won’t let you sleep alone tonight; what if monster underneath your bed will decide to taste your royal flesh…Only Great and Powerful Trixie would be able to save you!” Trixie stood up in a magnificent, prideful pose, which was accompanied by Twilight’s giggles.
But Trixie had something else to say: “Speaking honestly, sharing a bed with a good friend is what Trixie really likes to do…I know, it is weird, but it’s so cute to sleep with your friends…This is just so cute and warm… Helps you understand your friend’s soul… You can cuddle with your partner have a little chat before sleep…Or a pillow fight!”
“Aw, Lulamoon, another cute phrase from your side and my heart will melt… This day is pretty silly, I hated you in the morning, and now I find out you want to cuddle with me…” Twilight erupted in giggles while Trixie blushed ever more; she tried to cover her cheeks with a hand, but her nervous and awkward smile was in bookworm’s sight.
“I…um… Sorry, I made things so awkward…”- was the only thing Trixie found appropriate enough to say.
“Don’t worry, it’s fine! I like cuddles! Especially now, when weather becomes so cold,”
***
They didn’t care about time. Whether it passed three, four, or even five hours, it didn’t disturb them either. They were engaged in their dialogue, discussing everything from jokes and ancient magical spells they knew to dreams and aims in life.
“And then, I told her, GO BACK TO YOUR CAVE!”
Trixie and Twilight erupted in laughter, as show mare finished her joke.
“Oh, Trixie, look! It’s 23:11! Shall we go to sleep?”
Trixie supported Twilight with silent nod.
“So, one bed, as we planned?”
“One bed.” Twilight winked, playfully tapping Trixie’s arm with her own elbow. She was first to stand up and motion to the stairs, but Trixie quickly followed her.
Their way to the second floor seemed infinite, but fortunately, it wasn’t. It was just an average stair up to Twilight’s bedroom.
When the path to the Twilight’s bed was done, mares were standing in front of Twilight’s tidy, perfectly folded bed. White pillows, blanket with little stars on it, two wooden nightstands by each sides of the bed. Lamp, standing on the left nightstand created enough light for Twilight to read, even despite its little size.
“So, it’s place, when my little Sparkle sleeps, right?”
“Hey! I am not your little Sparkle! But sure, I sleep here. And by the way, I have spare pair of pajamas for you…”
“It’s good, Trixie used to sleep in her cape, it was not good. I got so sweaty, oh my…”
Lighting a horn, and levitating it, Twilight passed a pile of blue pajamas right in Trixie’s hands as show mare impatiently grabbed them. “Thanks,” Trixie muttered, scanning the clothes with her eyes. “May I use your bathroom to change my clothes?”
Twilight gave a nod, while lifting the blanket and lying on the bed. She felt her muscles shivered, as she fell in, and cold, untouched fabric hit her body.
When Trixie locked herself in bathroom, some questions stood up in Twilight’s mind. What could it all mean? They are ready to sleep in one bed, but it’s all wrong. It is some sort of weird dream. Twilight could’ve find Trixie a room in a hotel, or let her sleep on the couch, but no, she allowed her to share bed with her. What could it all mean, once again? Does it means that…Oh no… Twilight can’t just… get a crush on her ex-rival. Never! It was wrong!
Tape of Twilight’s thoughts was interrupted, when she heard click, and saw Trixie slowly approaching her bed, from the right side. Shyly, Trixie crawled under the sheets, trying to keep the blanket tidy, as it was before her arrival.
“Such a quick mare you are…” Twilight nervously giggled, moving aside to give Trixie some more space to sleep.
“I am indeed… I am Great and Powerful, if you remember,”
Twilight yawned, and shoved her hand underneath her pillow, her deep purple eyes staring on Trixie. But suddenly, she realized that her wings were horribly tensing all this time. She used her hand to stifle a quiet groan.
“Trixie, do you mind make me a little favor?”
“What’s the matter?”
“Can you massage my wings?”
Trixie raised her torso, and lifted her eyebrow in confusion, being caught off guard by Twilight’s request, her cheeks covered by redness again, shade was even darker now.
“Wings? I uh… I even… I’ve never…“
“Pleeeease, they ache so badly,” Twilight attempted to make cute face.
“Well, in that case, okay…”
Twilight got off of blanket, and rolled on her stomach, unfolding her purple wings, that seemed to be soft and strong at the same time.
“You have got nice wings, Sparkle,” Trixie said with a chuckle, as she turned her torso to left, and prepared to rub Twilight’s wings a bit, warming up her own fingers by wiggling them in the air. “But you will have to guide me, Trixie does it first time!”
“Just, reel and rub them…Gently, they are very sensitive…”
Trixie nodded, and shoved her fingers by each side of bookworm wings’ undercurves, trying doing it slowly. Loud gasp escaped Twilight’s mouth, her wings fluttered immediately. Trixie felt it, and pulled back.
“Have I just done something wrong?”
Twilight denied: “No, keep doing, they will get used to it after short contact.”
Trixie shrugged, and got back to work, feeling like resistance and flattering decreases, while Twilight’s face was turning red. Her inhales and exhales became deeper and longer, temperature of her body got hotter.
“Do you like it?” Trixie asked, though she knew, that the answer was yes.
“I do like it…They don’t ache anymore…”
“Your luck I am not finished yet… Hey, I have a funny idea…” Trixie giggled, and moved her head down to the wing joint, and then she gave it a long slow lick; it didn’t take much time for sensitive joints to shiver.
“Trixie-TRI- Hahahah, STAHP! Thash ish very ticklish!” Book worm tried her best to struggle, but Trixie’s magic pinned her limbs to the bed. Feeling that resistance will hardly worth it, Twilight couldn’t help, but loudly giggle, while Trixie’s tongue danced on her flesh.
“Oh, these large, wide feathers are definitely most important in system, I should take care of them,” Trixie hissed, when she moved her tongue onto Twilight’s feathers, using flat part of it to clean them perfectly.
“TRIXIE! STOP LICKING MY PRECIOUS WINGS!” Twilight managed to say it in between wild giggles
Trixie ignored Twilight, pushing alicorn’s head in the pillow with her free hand.
“Oh come on, don’t take it like that, we’re just playing…” Trixie nipped Twilight’s wing, playing and wetting her feathers in her maw, and eagerly drinking Twilight’s giggles.
Meanwhile, sinister idea of revenge was born in bookworm’s mind
“You wanna play? Okay, let’s play!” Twilight’s voice was nice, but mischievous. She lifted her head, and lit her horn, tearing of one of her own feathers, and attacking Trixie’s armpit with it. Few motions up and down, and Trixie fell onto the bed, unsuccessfully trying to defend her own weak points. Now, it was Twilight’s turn to be pleased by show mares squeaks and giggles, which were even cuter, than her own. When she felt Trixie’s paralyzing spell lost its power, she rolled on the top of her ex- rival.
“GOTCHA! And what would you do now, Trixie?” Twilight’s voice was overloaded with happiness of domination, and freeing from the funny, but still unwanted torture. She lifted her eyebrow, and gave a wide smirk, revealing her stunning white teeth. They both panted heavily, both were crimson red, both were tired from them little friendly fight.
Trixie blinked, and glanced up. It was beautiful. She got stuck in Twilight’s big, incredibly deep eyes. She was ready to swear she saw her own reflection in Twilight’s eyes. They held eye contact for two minutes, just laying in that pose. Then Trixie lifted her head a little, only one inch was separating their lips.
Twilight’s smirk turned into expression of half-confusion, half-passion. She already expected what could actually happen.
“Twily… You are best mare I’ve seen… You are loyal, kind, smart, responsible…You are perfect…At first, I hated you, but then, something changed in my soul, and I wasn’t able to stop thinking about you… I don’t care if I will have to regret this, but I will do it,” Trixie closed her eyes, locking her arms around Twilight’s neck, as their lips met. It was barely a real kiss, rather fast lip contact. Twilight pulled back, and quietly squeaked, hungrily sucking the air.
“Th-that was…funny… I’ve always liked you so much, I always knew you had a golden heart you showed me today, my great and powerf-”
Twilight didn’t finish, as her lips were attacked once again, in more aggressive way. But now Twilight kept the kiss, only taking slow breaks for air. They weren’t sure how long they tasted each other, but they were sure it was a long kiss.
Trixie broke the kiss for a moment, and looked in Twilight’s eyes again.
“So, what does it mean? Are we… special someponies from now?”
“I guess we are…” Twilight awkwardly giggled.
Trixie rolled back on her side of bed, and crawled under the sheets again, and so did Twilight. But now, they were laying much closer to each other. Twilight moved even closer, wrapping her hands around Trixie's chest, and pulling her in a hug.
“Twily, I …I had a crush on you since our second encounter…”
“What was that, Trixie?” Even though Trixie said that phrase very quietly, Twilight was able to get the main clue.
“N-NOTHING, TURN AROUND AND LET’S SLEEP!”
Twilight shrugged, and rolled on opposite side, pulling the blanket up to cover her chest.
“I had a crush on you since the very beginning…”
Trixie felt her cheeks burning from another blush.
