My Little Pony: Sisterly Convergence

Chapter 6

The next day, Celestia was the first out of the two to wake up, though since she had yet to raise the sun it wasn’t technically morning, more like dawn. But still, she could see her peacefully sleeping sister still lying next to her with a smile on her face which made Celestia smile also.

She tried not to move much, since she didn’t want to wake her, and instead continued to stare at her lovingly. Celestia loved that fact that as of last night, Luna was no longer her little sister, but her lover and soulmate and as much as she wanted to give her a kiss again, she knew she was tired and let her sleep a little longer, not that she cared since she had always loved watching her sleep.

Eventually she slowly sat up and felt her heart beating harder and faster, she put a hoof on Luna’s chest and quickly found out that they were beating at the same time, which made her want to squeal with joy.

Knowing it was time for her to raise the sun, Princess Celestia slowly and quietly slid out from under the covers of her bed, put on her golden accessories and crown and began to make her way to the balcony.

Upon reaching said balcony the tip of her horn, which was recently sucked on by her sister much to her happiness, glowed with a golden aura before extending to the rest of it. She lowered her head and reared up as she lifted the sun out from behind the mountains, signaling a new day. And this new day was particularly great since it was also the beginning of her and Luna’s new and romantic relationship as a couple.

She smiled gently towards the horizon before making her way back inside.

When she reentered her bedroom and closed the doors behind her, she saw that Luna was just beginning to wake up so she trotted over and nuzzled her awake.

“Good morning.” Celestia said, softly.

Luna giggled as she felt her sister’s warm coat. “Morning to you as well, my love,” she cooed. Celestia beamed hearing her say that, it was just like her dream. “Slept well?”

“Yes. Better than I have in years.” Princess Celestia expressed as she put her hoof on Luna’s. “Especially now that you’re here.”

“Oh…!” Luna said, touched as she and her sister shared a kiss before a knock on the door interrupted, as well as startle them.

“Hello? Princess?” A voice called out. The two sisters eyes both widened as they gasped sharply.

“It’s one of the guards.” Celestia realized, beginning to panic.

“Oh no! If he sees me in here and in your bed he’ll…” Luna began to say, greatly worried.

“No time! Quick! Hide yourself!” Celestia told her sister/lover quickly.

In an eye’s notice, Luna had ducked behind the bed and then crawled underneath it before laying herself low to the ground, in the hopes of not being spotted. She held her breath in nervous anticipation, listening to every word the guard said to Celestia as soon as he entered the room.

“Your highness, there is an ambassador from the Griffon Kingdom. He speaks of debts unpaid and demands you to answer him and his people,” the guard announced in grave tone.

Luna heard Celestia sigh in slight frustration. “Again? Oh… when will these foul Gryphon’s ever learn what humility is?” she asked. Quickly she added, “Do not ever tell anypony I called them by this designation. Swear it!”

The guard saluted. “I swear on my honor, your majesty!”

Celestia nodded, gratefully. “Thank you, that will be all for now, thank you for telling me this and inform the Ambassador that I will be there shortly.”

“Ma’am.” The guard nodded before he turned and trotted away, before closing the door behind him. The two sisters breathed a sigh of relief and Luna got out from under the bed.

“By the stars… that certainly was a close one.” Luna remarked.

“Indeed. I almost feared that we were going to be exposed.” Celestia confessed to her sister, clearly afraid. “It’s much too soon…”

“As do I.” Luna admitted. “But luckily, it appears that our secret is secure.”

“For now…” Her elder sister added, solemnly. Deep down she feared what would happen if other ponies learned of their new relationship. One thing was for sure; it wouldn’t be pleasant.

“Yes… for now… but until then, we will continue to be happy; together.” Luna said with a smile, trying to look on the bright side.

Celestia turned the smile as she and her sister held hooves. “Yes, together,” she agreed.

Luna then drew a little circle with her hooves as she looked down and blushed. “So uh… what should we do now?”

The Princess of the Day then began to think. “Hmm, a good question… we’ll figure it all out later, for now we must maintain public appearance, nopony must suspect that something is going on,” she instructed. “So we must act as if everything is normal between us.”

“Agreed. Still, to commemorate this new relationship of ours, maybe the two of us could have a… interpersonal affair?” Luna offered, hopefully.

Her sister raised a brow. “As in… a date?”

“If you wish to.” Princess Luna nodded.

A coy smile appeared on Celestia’s face. “Little sister, that is a great idea. But we must be careful. No open display of affection in public, touches only when inevitable and no exaggerated laughter. We must appear as regal as we can.”

“I agree,” Luna agreed. “A different matter now: Where should we go for this special occasion?”

“Hmm, a very good question…” Celestia mused. “Tell me, what is your favorite restaurant again?”

Luna thought for it. “Well… I can’t remember the name exactly… but I do know that it is high-class and that Twilight Sparkle took her old friend Moon Dancer to it.”

“Ah, yes, I know the one.” Celestia smiled.

“Great! So after the meeting with the Griffon ambassador we shall head there around… eightish?” Luna inquired.

“Sounds wonderful.” Princess Celestia expressed as she put a hoof on her sister’s cheek. “And I promise; I will make this date as memorable as I can.”

“You don’t have to, sister.” Princess Luna tried to tell her new marefriend.

“Maybe not, but you are worth it.” Celestia expressed to Luna, lovingly.

“Oh sister…” Luna breathed as she raised her head while Celestia lowered her’s, preparing to kiss until they heard another knock at the door, annoying Luna.

“Princess, the Ambassador is growing impatient.” The guard on the other side of the door announced.

“I’ll be right there!” Celestia called out.

Luna sighed. “Honestly… these guards have the worst sense of timing,” she huffed.

Celestia smiled at her sister/lover. “Don’t worry, we can do as much as you want, when we’re alone,” she said, suggestively, which made Luna smile also. “Now, let’s get this matter over with.”

“Right.” Luna nodded as they magically opened the door and proceeded out together side by side. They also wrapped their tails around each other while smiling at each other.

Later that evening, while the citizens of Canterlot mingled about and enjoyed the bright lights and fancy attractions that their beloved city had to offer, the Princess of Love, who had arrived not too long ago, was currently having a walk just outside the castle walls. She looked very tired.

Whew… glad to be away from all those royal affairs today… she thought to herself, relieved. I should probably let Aunt Celestia and Luna know that I’m here again.

She then remembered another reason why she had come all this way.

“Oh! That reminds me, I need to ask them a question… are they truly in love or… is it something else? I have to be careful about how I ask… such a question is not so easily asked, especially when it comes to family…”

All the while, she was so lost in thought, and consumed by the scenery Canterlot was popular for, that she hadn’t exactly payed attention to where her hooves were carrying her. She had wandered off from the main road to avoid being held on by passersby to give autographs, photos, and what else.

As she looked around, she found herself in a rather young part of Canterlot. The houses built here could not be older than ten years maybe, the restaurants had a modern look about them and many young ponies strolled around, some by themselves some in groups and some with only one partner.

Cadance enjoyed watching the last sort. It was always to her delight to see love being in bloom, and where else than here, in the capital of Equestria? As she spied a couple exchanging a quick kiss over a shared cup of ice cream, her heart jumped and she felt that certain warmth that came when she was close to open love.

She walked on, keeping her head a little lower than usual, but it didn’t help her in not being recognized. A nod here, a waving pony there, but not one had asked a favor of her so far. This might actually turn out to be her new favorite spot.

Until she saw them.

Through the gold-framed windows of the lilac restaurant, behind the purple curtains, she spied a couple that looked awfully a lot like her two aunts. The powerful magical aura she was feeling in the surrounding area also indicated the presence of Celestia and Luna.

As she inspected the restaurant closer, she noticed that safe for the two of them, the room was entirely empty.

“What in the…” Cadance began to say before somepony spoke up.

“Hey, Miss, business is closed toda-” The voice broke upon realization who was being addressed.

“I-I’m sorry, your highness, I didn’t see you properly,” a white unicorn stallion stood at the entrance, one hoof still holding it open. “I have orders to refuse service to anypony today, on personal wish of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. With your highness, though… Would you like me to inform them of your presence?”

Cadance shook her head. “No, there is no need for that. Just serve them as dutifully as you can.”

The stallion bowed his head and went back inside, leaving Cadance on the sidewalk. That was truly intriguing, if not suspicious. She had to investigate.

She saw a far off spot inside the restaurant and thought it would be a good place to hide, so she charged up her horn and performed a teleportation spell to get to that one spot. Luckily neither of her aunts noticed it or saw her and continued eating their dinner.

The way they were smiling at each, laughing and holding hoofs and tails but only until the waiter she met earlier arrived… it was almost like… they were on a date.

“Now what do we have here?” Cadance whispered to herself.

Celestia continued to laugh before levitating a spoon up and using it to scoop up some potatoes and lift it up towards Luna. “Care for some more potatoes?” she offered.

“Why thank you.” The Princess of the Night smiled in a cute manner before she opened her mouth and allowed the spoon to come in. While Celestia pulled it out, her sister moaned happily as she enjoyed the food that was fed to her.

Celestia laughed again. “This is just like the days when we were fillies and I was always feeding you.”

“Except this time I am older and much more mature.” Luna said, proudly. “Also I’m not making a mess out of the place, remember?”

“Yes, mother and father we’re not pleased the first time.” Celestia recalled. The two giggled and sighed as they allowed memories of their parents to flow into their minds.

“I certainly miss them…” Luna mused, sadly.

“As do I…” Celestia nodded, also looking down.

“Do you… think they’d be proud?” The night Princess questioned sounding unsure.

“Luna, of course they would, especially of you and how far you’ve come.” Celestia told her sister sincerely as she held her hoof.

“I meant about… us… and… this…” Luna stated, gazing at her sister’s hoof on her own and the romantic restaurant they were in.

Celestia quickly figured out what her sister meant. “Oh… right…” She took a look at her plate and the delicious food there, sorting her thoughts and choosing her words. “I guess… they would just have to deal with it. They would be happy in the end, for our sakes. Mother and Father were always selfless when it came to us. They loved us, and I am sure they would have understood eventually.” She levitated another spoon of potatoes up in front of Luna’s face and asked, “Potato?”

Luna smiled thankfully, rather for her sister’s words than for the offer.

Cadance had seen enough.

In a flash, she stood outside the restaurant again, walking up and down the sidewalk. She stopped. “I wonder if they already…” Cadance mused, then flew off in an instant, heading toward Canterlot Castle.

Upon arrival, she galloped into Luna’s section and cast a spell, marking spots where large amounts of love was found. Several spots lit up as a result of the spell and it led all over the room. As they lit up and she saw them forming a definite trace, she began following the dots. Some of them lit brighter and in a more intense color, signs of bursts of feelings.

She traveled square across the castle until she stood before the entrance to Celestia’s sector, ornamented in bright yellowish and pink colors. The closer she got to Celestia’s bedchamber the brighter the orbs shone. When she opened the door, Cadence peaked inside.

Immediately, she had to cover her eyes. The light that shone on the bed was so glistening, she was glad only she was able to see it. That meant only one thing. So they had given in to their lust.

Oh, Celestia and Luna, what will become of this? Cadance thought with mixed feelings.

She trotted off, intentions battling in her heart, toward the kitchens. She had a hunger for something hearty.
