My Little Pony: Sisterly Convergence

Chapter 8

The next morning in Equestria, things seemed to be pretty normal, aside from the two rulers of the kingdom currently sleeping together after a long night of love making. Both of them were confident that their secret was secure and nopony else knew about it, but this was not the case…

Following, Celestia once again raised the sun as she and her sister engaged in a lovely make out session before the Princess of the Day had to go back to her room to maintain appearance. They were soon interrupted when they heard a knock at the door.

“Uh… who is it?” Luna called out.

“Aunt Luna, it’s me, Cadance.”

Luna gasped, turned and Celestia and whispered, “Cadance! Hide!” Celestia nodded and quickly crawled under the bed, like Luna did when she was in her room not long ago.

The Princess of the Night quickly put on her accessories, slippers and crown and got out of bed to face her niece. “Please enter,” she requested.

The doors then magically opened up and the Princess of Love entered; she looked very serious.

“Hello Luna,” she said, seemingly calm.

“Cadance, what a surprise.” Luna remarked. “What brings you here so early?”

“I wanted to ask you something,” her niece said.

“Ask me something?” Princess Luna echoed. “Like what?”

“Well… I…” Cadance began to say, trying to find the right words to begin her question until she notices something rather odd. “Hey…”

She walked around Luna, who began to become a little nervous as she turned around, and saw that the bed had doubled in size. Luna mentally slapped herself for not remembering to restore the bed to it’s normal size.

“Uh… why is the bed so big?”

“Huh? Oh! Oh, that? Well I… just… needed some more room, you see? I tend to get a little bit restless when I sleep so I…”

“It looks like it could fit two ponies…” Princess Cadance remarked as she observed the bed closely.

Luna pretended to mimic her and faked noticing it. “Hmm, it appears you are right,” she said. “I suppose I made it too big, eh?”

“Yeah… I guess so…” Cadance started to say before her voiced trailed off after she looked down and noticed something else. “What is that?”

“What? What is what?” Luna questioned, quickly.

“It looks like somepony is under your bed…” Cadance said as she began to lower her head down.

Luna then began to sweat bullets as she became more and more nervous. “What? Preposterous! There’s nopony…”

Before she could finish Cadance had already gotten to floor level and spoke her lover’s name;

“Aunt Celestia?”

Luna gulped and leaned down also and saw that Cadance had indeed spotted Celestia under her bed and it appeared that she was in the middle of generating a teleportation spell, in a desperate attempt to flee but Cadance caught her before she could finish. Her horn then ceased glowing when she noticed her niece, currently frowning at her.

“Oh… hello Cadance, it’s nice to see you…” Celestia said, smiling and chuckling nervously. She also blushed a bit while Cadance continued to stare at her seriously.

“Why are you under Aunt Luna’s bed?” Her niece questioned, bluntly. “And why aren’t you in your own room?”

“Uh… well… it is… a rather long story and I…” Princess Celestia started to say.

“Later, first… come on out there.” Cadance said.

Celestia sighed. “Alright…”

Both she and her sister looked worried while she crawled out from under the bed and stood next to her sister while their niece leaned back up to look them both in the eye. There was a period of silence between the three of them before it was soon broken.

“So…” Cadance began. “Something happen that I should know about?”

“Uh… well I…” Luna began.

“Were you two sleeping together?” Cadance questioned, bluntly.

Luna tried to come up with a good excuse but her nieces serious eyes were making it hard. “Well… kind of… you see…”

“Luna… had trouble sleeping so… I decided to sleep alongside her to comfort her, like we did when we were growing up as young fillies.” Celestia finished.

“Yes. Yes, that… that is exactly it…” Luna added, playing along.

Cadance still remained a little suspicious as she raised a brow. “I see…” she mused. “By the way… last night… did either of you do anything… special at all?”

“Special?” Celestia repeated.

“Yes, like… did you go out and… see the sights or… had a meal of some sorts?” Cadance inquired, interested.

“Uh… no, we uh… we were in the castle… all day…” Luna said, extremely nervous now.

“And all night.” Celestia continued as she and Luna smiled guilty smiles.

“Really?” Cadance asked, doubtfully. “Because when I was out in Canterlot for a midnight stroll... I could have sworn that I saw two ponies inside a closed out restaurant, eating dinner, and having a date… ponies who looked just. Like. You two.”

The two sisters gulped when they realized that their niece knew more about them than they’d realized and that she had spotted them on their date without either of them even knowing it. They quickly tried to think of a new lie.

“Uh… you must be mistaken…” Celestia tried to say.

“Am I?” Cadance questioned, still doubtful.

“Yes… you… must have seen two ponies that… look like us and…” Luna stuttered. “Used their likeness of us to… make sure they were the… only two ponies there…”

The two sisters smiled big and nervous smiles but their adopted niece continued to have a straight face. Then she raised a brow at them.

“So… let me get this straight… you two were in the castle all night yesterday… two ponies who look exactly like you both go on a date and trick everypony into thinking they’re you two to be alone in the restaurant and Luna slept with you because she was scared like she was when she was a filly?” Cadance asked, flatly.

“Well… I’m sure there were some doubts about them being us…” Celestia pointed out, with a false smile.

“And I was not scared.” Luna stated, firmly.

Cadance then started to become agitated. “So missing the point!” she told them. She face hoofed and continued to give them a displeased look. “You’ve both been lying and talking around it during this whole conversation. Now I want answers and they had better be the truth this time. Why were two at that restaurant and why were you sleeping in the same bed together!?”

Celestia and Luna were both stunned by their adopted niece’s angry tone and exchanged glances. They both knew that they could not lie to her any more and were faced with the hard reality that somepony knew about them and what they’ve done. Both of them sighed, deciding to tell Cadance everything, and nodded to each other in agreement.

“Alright…” Celestia relented, as she stepped forward. “We… wanted to keep this just between the two of us… for… obvious reasons… and only tell when the moment was right. But… I suppose that moment is here.”

“That moment has passed. Now, tell me… are you two in love?” Cadance asked, bluntly.

Her two aunt’s closed their eyes and lowered their heads and as they did so, Cadance noticed their ethereal tails wrapping around each other. They soon looked at Cadance sad but happy looks on their faces.

“Yes. We are.” Celestia revealed.

Cadance was stunned, while she had suspected and practically figured out the truth, she was deeply surprised to hear her Aunt flat out admit it. “How…? Why…?” she questioned, trying to comprehend it. “Y-you’re… you’re both sisters!”

“We know, Cadance.” Luna nodded.

“But regardless, we are in love.” Celestia stated. “And I believe I have been in love with Luna ever since she was a young filly. I just didn’t know it yet.”

Her younger sister smiled at her, touched, though Cadance was still upset by this.

“But… but you two understand how wrong this is?” Cadance questioned.

“You were the one who told me love was love and to let it light the way.” Celestia reminded her.

“Yes, but I didn’t know that the mare you were crushing on was your own sister!” Cadance exclaimed. “It’s wrong!”

Luna nodded. “We know, we discussed it at length just a few days ago.”

“It’s true. Luna felt the same way you do when I confessed.” Celestia revealed.

“But after a while I realized that I too felt the same way as she.” Luna added. She gazed up at her sister. “And we have been together ever since.”

Princess Celestia smiled and shared a nuzzle with her younger sister. Despite seeing the obvious and pure love between the two and feeling touched by it, Cadance still shook her head rapidly.

“Stop! Just stop!” she said, loudly. They both turned to her surprise. “Listen, I know you two think you’re in love, but are you sure it’s love and not lust you’re feeling?”

The two sisters gasped in shock when they heard their niece’s question.

“Well of course we are sure!” Luna told her, firmly.

“Cadance,” Celestia began, warmly. “I know this is difficult to grasp or understand but…”

“No, you two listen! Do you two understand what would happen if ponies found out about you two? How they would react?” Princess Cadance questioned, concerned. “You would be ostracized! Ponies would never look at you two the same way again. They would turn their backs on you…”

“Don’t worry, Cadance.” Princess Celestia comforted her. “Nopony is going to find out. At least not until the time is right.”

“That is… if you do not speak a word of this to anypony, will you?” Princess Luna questioned, raising a brow suspiciously.

Celestia put a hoof on her sister’s shoulder. “Luna, please.”

“What?” she asked. “I am simply asking. Besides, we don’t know if…”

“Oh, don’t worry, I won’t tell anypony, but still…” Cadance said before her voice trailed off. “I’m… just not sure about this… I mean… it’s an unnatural love and…”

“But it’s still love, none the less.” Celestia countered, calmly.

“I… well…” Cadance tried to argue, but found herself unable to. She sighed, defeated. “I suppose you’re right…”

The Princess of the Day then put a comforting hoof on her adopted niece. “Cadance, I am so sorry for not telling you right away, but me and my sister truly do love each other and while I can’t ask you to understand why… I do request that you respect it, and see just how happy we are together.”

Cadance gazed at her eyes and saw the light of love glow in both of their eyes, which increased as the two continued to rub against each other lovingly. As much as she hated to admit, she did see the genuine love connection between the two and once again sighed in defeat and frustration. “Ok… while I don’t understand how or why this happened… I do see the love and I respect it, and truly do wish you both nothing but the best. And… I’m sorry for how I acted.”

“It’s alright Cadance, as mentioned before I also reacted the same way you did when Celestia told me her feelings.” Luna assured her.

“So… nopony else but me knows?” Cadance inquired.

Celestia shook her head. “No. Nopony else but you.”

“And as stated before; we’d like it to remain that way, for obvious reasons.” Luna said.

“Until the time is right, that is.” Celestia added.

“And when will that be?” Cadance questioned.

“I do not know…” Her aunt Celestia admitted. “But whatever happens… we’ll face it together.”

Luna smiled, touched. Cadance was also touched by this and smiled also. “Well Aunt Celestia… it seems you truly have found your special somepony…” she expressed. “I’m proud of you both.”

Princess Celestia nodded, thankfully. “Thank you my dear niece, we’re very pleased to hear you say that.”

“Indeed. And to celebrate…” Luna began before she put a hoof on her sister’s cheek and pulled her down for a kiss. Cadance smiled and glanced away awkwardly, letting the two sisters/lovers enjoy their moment, before a thought then popped into her mind.

“However… there is one other thing I’d like to ask…” she said. The two ceased their kiss and turned to her. “Did you two happen to… do it… yet? I mean I used a spell to try and determine if you did or not but still...”

Celestia and Luna exchange glances and tried to answer but just thinking about it caused their cheeks to turn red, which was more than enough to answer Cadance’s question. The Princess of Love blushed also.

“Uh, never mind! That’s… that’s not important,” she stammered, quickly. “What matters is that you two are happy and together.”

“Indeed we are.” Luna nodded.

“Yes, and we’re so happy that you’ve come to accept our love.” Celestia expressed.

“Well… I’ll admit it’s gonna take a little… getting used to… and I’m not fully comfortable with it yet…” Cadance admitted. “But I do see how much you love each other and because of that, I won’t stand in your way and I will do my best to make sure that nopony else discovers it.”

“And we have faith that you will.” The Princess of the Night nodded, thankfully. Her sister nodded also.

“Thanks.” The Princess of Love said, blushing. Then, another thought popped into her mind, an intriguing thought at that. “So… just wondering here but uh… have you two ever thought of… marriage?”

Hearing this caused the two sister’s eyes widen greatly, their pupils shrunk to pinpoints and their ears fell down flat.

As if they had studied it, both yelped in unison.

“Marriage?!”
