Chapter 5: Snow Time!

In the early morning Rose wakes up to find herself resting on Fury's chest under his sleeping head. She Blushes at an idea in her head.

‘This may be my only chance, hopefully he is a heavy sleeper….’ She slowly moves herself from his embrace to his face, ‘Well, here we go..’ With a flying heart, she lands a kiss on Fury’s lips.

His reaction to this in his state was unexpected to her, he welcomes the kiss and holds her more tightly to his body. Rose’s eyes widen then closes as she is enveloped by it. She then breaks away a short time later breathing lightly with a smile on her face.

“I did it” she says softly, “I did it.” she then goes back to sleep in bliss.

Fury wakes a good 2 hours later after a good dream. Rose is still snuggled under his neck. He looks down at the sleeping mare.

‘Wish I had magic, then I could move.’ He thought. Every move he makes just makes Rose hold on to him more tighter.
He sighs lightly in defeat. He gets an idea. He moves his free hoof down Rose’s back and between her wings, Rose shudders at the feel. He then presses down and moves up and down her back. Rose coos softly in her sleep and starts to loosen her grip on him. He does this for a few minutes till Rose starts to wake up due to his movements and starts to move a bit. Fury notes this and stops.

Rose opens one eye to look at him, “Um, what were you doing” she asks.
Fury is unsure of how to answer but she is not mad or anything she is just strait up confused at the situation.

“I uh….”

Rose smiles and says, “If you wanted to get up you could have just woke me and told me you know.”

Fury looks back at her, “Um, ok I will make note of it next time.”

She gets up off the couch and Fury to let him get up. Fury heads to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, right before he enters, he turns to look at Rose and asks,

“What would you like this morning?”

Rose thinks for a minute. “Maybe some pancakes and grape juice.” she answers.
Fury nods then turns to head into the kitchen to make her orders. Rose just turns back to the couch to sit back on it. She sighs daydreaming about how it felt for his hooves on her back.

A short time later during eating, they chatted about the last few things they can. Then after finishing breakfast, they went back to playing chess. Rose looks out the window to see the snow slowing down. Her ears perk up with glee and she looks at Fury with a jolly smile. Fury looks up at her.

‘Oh, boy…’ he thinks.
Right before he could say anything Rose burst with a talking speed that could have rivaled Pinkie pie.

“OMCCanwegoplayinthesnowandmakesnowponysandplayinsnowballfightsthengethotcoco,thenplayagianinthesnow?” She says with glee.
Fury is just stunned by the speed and long question as well as how close her face is to him. Fury is left without an answer for a bit,

“Sure, just let me get the things so we don't get a cold.” he says as he gets up from where he is to get the needs.
Rose let out a small squee at him saying yes, and starts jumping around happy. Fury just chuckles at the happy mare.

Shortly after getting everything, and suiting up for the outside snow, they went to the door of the apartment and opened it. The sight of the snow was impressive but beautiful at the same time. The streets were full of ponies playing in the snow filled streets of Canterlot, most of them fillies and colts making snow ponies and having snowball fights. Even some of the nobles were playing which was a rare sight but at the same time adorable.
Rose just stares awestruck at how beautiful Canterlot was with all the snow, Fury however starts to sneak to the snow covered ground. He makes a snowball and aims, then throws at Rose. It hits her in the side and it knocks her out of her daze. She turns on him with a hunting look. Fury realizes his mistake and tries to hide and run from her as she bombards him with snow from the air.

“Hey! that's not fair. I don’t have my wings on!” Fury yells up to her.
Rose just laughs and keeps going for a time till Fury finally gets her with a snowball and she falls into a pile of snow with a soft ‘pomf’. He trots over to where she lay and only gets jumped and tackled by her from inside the snow mound. They lay laughing in the snow mound till they calm down and saw that the snow had held itself up and made a small cave like wall. They sit up together and stay there for a while admiring the snow and the beauty of nature once again.

“That will never get old.” Fury states.

“Yea, it’s too pretty to be hated.” Rose agrees. They lay there in the small snow cave under the falling snow. Fury looks over at Rose, who had snowflakes in her hair, which only made her more beautiful

“Should we get hot coco now?” he asks.

Rose looks back at him, “Yea, I am getting a bit too cold.” she responded shivering.

“Alright, let's go back home.” They did not realize how long they were outside since Rose got really happy and could not get rid of her energy till now.
On the way back home they played some more for a bit till they were only 1 block away from home. Once they arrived, Rose was leaning on Fury from her energy reserve loss. She was thankful that he was here.

“Well, here we are back home.” Fury stated matter-of-factually.
They enter together and Fury sets Rose down on the couch so he can make the Coco. Rose however when she was put on the couch, she almost fell straight to sleep.

“Oh, the couch is soft…” she said quietly.
When Fury returned with the Coco, he stopped at the sight of Rose curled into an almost ball once again.

“By Celestia, that's the most adorable thing.” he says quietly. Rose hears him enter back into the room and she looks up from where she is going red.

“Hi, time to drink.” he says as he comes over to her.
They clink their drinks and start to enjoy the hot beverage from being outside in the cold. There was still plenty of time to play outside. Rose looks out as well and an idea starts to form in her head.

When they finished their Coco, they went back outside, jolly as ever. Rose looks over to Fury with a challenge.

"So, Fury, want to have a little battle?" she says with a smile. He returns it with a smile signalizing that he has accepted the challenge.

"Alright, whats the battle going to be?" he asks.

She makes a snowball and throws it at him, "Snowball fight!" she exclaims with joy and starts to make more. The snowball smacks right on his chest. Looking down at it to see his coat get wet as it melts. He then hears a sound ahead of him and looks up in time to see a barrage of snowballs. He drops to the ground to avoid the cluster of them and moves for cover and starts to make his own and starts to throw them at her. Rose laughs as she hides from the snowballs coming from him and returns fire. At the same time, some of the younger ones started to join or watch the fight. Even some of the adults started to join and soon it became like an war than a battle. Some of the guards on duty could only chuckle or laugh at the snow war. Each side had built lines of snow bunkers and was chucking snowballs after popping over them.

The 'war' went on for hours. Both sides at a standoff, thus making a draw at the end of the day. Both Fury and Rose was tired from the battle. Rose got her wish at wanting to have a snowball fight at the end of the day. As they enter the home, Rose was leaning on Fury for support as they stumbled into the apartment. Rose dropped to the floor as her legs fell out from under her, Fury was aware of this coming and caught her and hefted her up before she hit the ground.
"Come on Rose...let's go to bed." he says leading her to her bedroom.
"Nooo....I don't want to go to bed." she wines holding on to him more tightly. Fury chuckles at her feeble attempts to not sleep, but her mind and body says otherwise that what she is saying. He finally gets her to her bed and tries to set her down. She fought back, but weakly and it was easy to get her in bed for as soon as she was put down, she went out like a light. Fury pulls the covers over her and smiles at the sleeping mare. Finally, he turns off the lamp and heads to his bed, but not before kissing Rose lightly on the forehead. A snow day has ended and another new day was coming.
