Chapter 1: Together at last

Chapter edited by Brickbrock24

I stood waiting at the train station. The cool, crisp autumn breeze blew my mane against my face. My blue sweatshirt was much of a help. The leaves of a nearby tree began to rattle. Red and orange leaves scattered onto the platform; which was quiet and nearly desolate except for a few families who were waiting for the train to arrive. I, too, was waiting for the train to arrive. Now, I wasn’t actually waiting to get onto a train, but rather I was waiting for a special someone to arrive on one.

After what seemed like years, an announcement sounded clarifying that the next train would arrive in a few minutes. I shifted from one foot to the other and flapped my wings impatiently until I heard the loud toot of the train’s whistle. The train came into view. I waited and started to look around the moment the train came to a stop. I was looking for him, and I knew he was looking for me. I frantically scanned the platform for him like the pages of an “I Spy” book. I knew he was here somewhere, he had to be. Many couples of all ages were getting off the train cars. Some were getting on. Looking at them only made me even more anxious to see him. With each turn of my head, my hopes began to fall when I didn't see among the sea of couples. I closed my eyes and prayed that he was on the train.

Then, I felt it. Something that I haven't felt in a long time. I knew it was him, it had to be. I opened my eyes and looked up. His strong chin rested on my head. He then wrapped his arms tightly around me in a fond embrace. My heart began to flutter with happiness. I turned around to see the smile I have longed to see. His navy blue mane was ruffled by the wind, which made me tempted to ruffle it more. I rested my hands on his chest. Tears began to well up in my eyes when I stared into his eyes, so I looked away. His hand then reached down and touched my face, wiping away the tear that was rolling down my cheek. I wrapped my arms around his body and hugged him back with no intention of ever wanting to let go.

We were now hugging tight. The breeze blew our manes to and fro. I felt a bit of looseness at my left side as he brought his arm up to cup my chin and made me look up at him. I almost fainted from his green eyes gazing back at me. His smile was contagious, because I soon found myself smiling as well. After a moment of silence, he leaned closer while pushing me closer. I could feel his heart beating in a rhythmic pattern. Mine was pounding with excitement and joy. He leaned his head to one side and slowly brushed his lips on mine. I blushed and brought my arms from around his torso to around his neck so that they gently rested on his shoulders. I leaned in this time. I turned my head, closed my eyes, and kissed him back firmly. Not daring to lose the moment, we stayed like this for a few seconds until he pulled away. He leaned close to me again, but this time towards my ear, and whispered,

"I missed you."

Chapter 2: Coming home again

Chapter edited by Brickbrock24

I sat on the blue double seats of the train, staring out the window. They really should make an effort to improve the seating arrangements, because my wings were unbearably sore from having to sit in such a crammed train car for over two hours. I was bored out of my mind. I literally had nothing better to do than to stare out the window and count the trees that the train passed. I felt the train slow down and eventually come to a stop. An announcement came on through the speakers in the train to tell us what station we were at. Only three more stops until Ponyville. Three freaking stops… Ugh... I tried not to look at the people getting off the train, because a lot of them were reuniting with their loved ones. Great, just great! Now I’ve got nothing but her on my mind and that’s just going to make this train ride feel like it’ll go on for another six years! Oh, why couldn’t this train just skip all the stops between Ponyville?

After what seemed like an eternity, the train finally made its stop at Ponyville. I quickly got up when I realized this was my stop. I gathered my things, which were packed in a small drawstring bag, and hurried out the door. The platform was crowded with people, many of whom were coming back for the holiday break. The sun was in the worst possible position in the sky; but I wasn’t going to let that stop me from finding my special someone! The crowds slowly began to thin as more and more people left the station. When I finally caught a glimpse of a rainbow mane turned away from me, I felt like I had found a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. I made a beeline straight toward her and did what I always did.

Slowly and carefully, I laid my chin on the top of her head; then wrapped my arms around her so that I could feel her warmth. She sighed, then turned to face me. As she laid her hands on my chest, I noticed a tear was rolling down her cheek. I reached my hand up and with the back of my hand, I wiped it away with a single swipe. She suddenly wrapped her arms around me and hugged me back tighter than I had to her. Her warmth helped me endure the chilling winds that were blowing around us. We were so close that I could feel her heart beat against my chest. It was excitedly fluttering at a fast tempo. After a moment of silence, I leaned closer and, at the same time, pushed her closer. I could feel her warm breath on my chin. I turned my head to one side and brushed my lips on hers. I looked into her eyes. Her face was slightly pink, like cotton candy. She brought her arms from around my chest to my shoulders and kissed me back. This time, it was more powerful and filled with twice as much love than when I kissed her. I pulled away after a few seconds. I leaned in close to her ear and whispered,

"I missed you."
