Unexpected Pegasus Love 2
Heal My Wounds
Previous ChapterNext ChapterCloudchaser and Rumble made it back home. Rumble was worried that Thunderlane would yell at his wife and scream that it was all her fault that he got hurt like this, getting his wing severely clipped in this condition.
"Wait!"
"What's wrong, buddy?" Cloudchaser asked him, stopping her from trying to lay her hoof to open it.
Rumble was stammering a little, but he finally replied "will Thunderlane be mad at us? He can be a little overprotective of me."
"We talked about it, remember?" She reminded him. "He might freak out a little in the beginning, but I'll explain to him what happened back there, and we'll be just fine."
The you colt was still a little uncertain, but he finally replied "okay. Ow!" He felt a brief sharp pain on his broken wing. "I think I just need to go upstairs, and take it easy." He gently touched the cast where the broken part of his small wing.
"Yeah, I'd do that, Rumble. The sooner you stay in bed and recover."
Rumble smiled "yeah. Good idea." Then Cloudchaser opened the door and both she and her husband looked at interior of the house. The builders were gen, and left a new, bigger, and improved house to live in.
These builders really outdone themselves with the renovations and improving. Thunderlane came out of one room, and Flitter from another. "Guys, you're back!" Thunderlane said, really happy to see them. Then he looked at his little brother "so, how was it, little bro?" He asked him
Rumble cleared his threat and showed him his not-so-good wing. When he big brother saw it, he gasped, looking quite shocked
Flitter gasped thereafter and said "Rumble, your wing is broken."
"Oh my god!" He exclaimed "Rumble, are you okay?" He gently touched his wing, making Rumble yelp in pain. "Sorry, sorry. How did this happen?"
"Well I.... I...?"
"Yes? Please tell me." Thunderlane softly begged him for the answer
"Spitfire and her friends wanted to know if was a good flyer for ifi wanted to be a Wonderbolt someday, so I gave it a shot, and bumped into a ring by accident and fell, that's why my wing is broken?"
Thunderlane was quite upset about this "Cloudchaser, what were you thinking letting him go like this?" He asked her demandingly.
Cloudchaser expected him to make an outburst like this, and replied "please, don't be mad me. I told him it was not such a good ide! But he wanted to go for it anyway. Soooo, itis my fault, not Rumble's."
Flitter stepped up and said "sis, it wasn't your fault. Rumble, you did say this was an accident, right?"
"Uh-huh."
"Oh Rumble, I was so worried about you little bro." Said Thunderlane. "Should we get you to a doctor?"
"No, we already went there."
His big brother sighed in relief "oh that's good. And what did they say?"
"That I can't fly for a little while, and I should mostly take it easy and rest in bed."
Cloudchaser's sister made a small smile "wonderful, rest in bed and heal faster, got it."
Thunderlane was also glad to hear that the effect of his wing was not so severe. "That's perfect. But next time, please don't go around doing something like, you might break your wing permanently the next time you do that."
"Okay. I promise, I'll think next time before I do that."
"Good."
"Don't worry, Rumble, accidents happen." Flitter reminded with a wink. "We just never know when they might come."
"Right, and Cloud, I'm sorry if I snapped at you. It's always good for a great wife like you to watch my brother."
Cloudchaser smiled at him "it's okay, Thunderlane, no hard feelings." Then the both hugged each other.
"Well, I suppose you might wanna get up to bed, and you will love what the builders put in you and Cloud's room."
Both of them were curious to know what he meant.
"They made new large bedroom for you guys to sleep together." Flitter added
They all went upstairs and saw that the bedroom was bigger, and the bed turned into a large queen-sized mattress. Both Rumble and Cloudchaser were amazed to see how it turned out. The covers and sheets were purple while the pillows were at their original white color.
"It's so cool." Cloudchaser said,
The wallpaper had Cloudchaser's mark all over it as icing on the cake. "I wish I could have told them thank you."
"We did that for you." Said Thunderlane. "Go on, try out how soft it is." Both Rumble and Cloudchaser laid on the mattress and it was really cozy, more cozy than they imagined it would have been. So soft, and comfortable. The blankets were so soft and the pillows were perfect for their heads to rest on to sleep on the night.
"Soooo, how do you guys like it?" Flitter asked eagerly
"I love it!" Cloudchaser said with full glee
"Me too!" Rumble added. Then he relaxed himself on the nice soft mattress.
"So, does your wing still hurt, buddy?"
"Yeah." the colt sadly admitted. "It's still a little sore." then he slowly reached his hoof towards his clipped wing, and when he touched it, he gave out a small, and adorable "Ow!"
The three frowned at how injured he still looks. Oh, it just broke their hearts watching the closest colt they ever know, and since she was his wife, Cloudchaser took it the worst.how unbearable it was for her to see Rumble in this condition.
"Will you be okay, sweetie?" Asked Cloudchaser. "If you want, I can stay with you through the whole day to make you better."
Rumble was touched "that's nice, Cloudchaser, but I think I'll be okay. Unexpectedly, he gave a very cute yawn and gently laid his head back on the nice pillow. "I just need some alone time."
They all smiled warmly at him, and then Cloudchaser kissed him, then Flitter thereafter. Since Thunderlane was a guy, he gave him a gentle, playful rub on his head
"Sleep tight, little pal." Thunderlane said softly
"Sweet dreams." Cloudchaser and Flitter added in unison.
"Try not to stay up too late, alright? You know you can't stay up all night." Flitter added
Rumble laughed. "I know. I won't, in fact, why don't you wake me up in a few hours?"
"Got it." Thunderlane promised. Then all three left the room so Rumble can take his little well deserved nap. Rumble felt more sleepy and he tucked himself under the covers, leaving his head visible. The coziness and softness of this new bed made it all the more relaxing for him
While he was napping, he made cute snoring sounds and sighing as he made it to dreamland.

A few hours later, Rumble felt something gently rubbing against his side, "Rumble." Said a voice. It was Cloudchaser, trying get him back to reality. "Kiddo, time to get up now."
The colt began to stir and made a cute yawn as he rubbed his eyes to get a better view of his surroundings. He saw the three closest ponies he ever knew, all smiling to see him awake. "What time is it?"
"Well, you were out for a few hours, little dude." Thunderlane remarked. "Three hours to be exact. So, it's about four o'clock in the afternoon."
"So anywho, a few ponies want to see you'"
Rumble was happy and surprised to hear that. "Who?"
"Come on in, guys." Flitter called out to the bedroom door. It was the three main Wonderbolts from earlier. There was also the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pipsqueak, and Cheerilee. When they all saw Rumble in this condition, it was almost unbearable seeing a sweet colt get hurt like this.
"Hi Rumble." Said the girls.
"How you doing, little buddy?" Said Rainbow Dash.
"Hey guys." Rumble replied kindly. "Not that I am not happy to see you all, but what are you all doing here?"
"Oh, we heard about what happened to you at the Wonderbolt academy." Fluttershy said in a really concerned voice. She rushed to him while hovered and looked at his wing "oh you poor poor thing. It looks awful."
"I'll be okay, Fluttershy. Really, the doctor said I just need to take it easy for a little while till I get better."
"Do you need our help, Rumble?" Asked Scootaloo. "We've got a first-aid kit to try out."
"It's called miss Helping Hooves special kit that guarantees to heal a colt fast if hurt." Applebloom added.
"It works really well." Said Sweetie with confidence." She opened the box so she and her friends can get started trying to "heal". Rumble however, had a look of horror, and gulped.
"Girls, please. Rumble doesn't need all this." Spitfire stopped them with a chuckle
"Yeah, I get you want to help, but his wing can heal by itself. Mum told me it's the only type of true healing." Pip added
"So, are you feeling okay, little dude?" Asked Rainbow Dash
"Yeah. My wing doesn't sting as much as it used to, it.... it still hurts."
"I am very sorry to hear that, sweetie." Said Cheerilee. "But I am just glad you are okay. I could not even know what to think if anything happened to one of my best students like this."
"Yeah, and we still feel that it's our fault." Said Fleetfoot with a touch of guilt. "We're kinda the reason why you're like this, and we're sorry."
"It's okay. I understand, but I told you, I let myself get careless back there, and I wasn't wing careful back there."
The three wonderbolts smiled in gratitude.
"By the way, Rumble, I never had a chance to congratulate you and Cloudchaser for getting married together that following day."
"Thank you, Miss Cheerilee. And thanks for coming to the wedding, all of you. It's very kind of all of you to care about our relationship."
"We do. Despite the little age-gap between you guys, I think you two are meant to be together." Said Applebloom.
Cloudchaser then hugged Rumble. It so tightly to not hurt his clipped up wing. "Yeah, we are meant to be." She agreed.
They all brought a gift for Rumble to enjoy as he recovers overtime before getting right back up into the swing of things. The crusaders gave him a book of all things cutie mark, the three lead Wonderbolts gave him a junior Wonderbolt badge, Pip with a Minotaur action figure, Fluttershy with a heating pillow and blanket to keep him more comfy, Rainbow with the Daring Do book series, and finally, Cheerilee with a plastic golden apple saying "star student on it, within a star.
The colt was more than grateful to have all these gifts. As a matter of fact, he placed them close to his bed in case he wanted to use the. Some time.
"So, thank you all for coming to see me. I really appreciate it."
"What are friends for?" Said Soarin. "Anypony who is a good friend of Thunderlane is a good friend of ours."
The colt was more than grateful to hear that. "Anyway, I need some alone time if that's okay."
"That's cool. Just relax and chill." Said Spitfire with a wink. The visitors said their byes and they were out of the house,
"Wanna bring you some dinner?"
"Sure. A hay burger would be nice, Thunderlane, and no mayo."
His big brother chuckled "no problem, I know very well how you like them burgers." Then went downstairs to fetch him his dinner.
"And I better get to watering the plants." Said a flutter, heading downstairs thereafter.
So, it was just a rumble and Cloudchaser, alone. "So, you want me to keep you company now?" She asked him
"Sure"
Cloudchaser smiled and they both laid on bed together, with the colt in her arms like a teddy bear. "I love you, Rumble."
"I love you too, Cloudchaser.
