-Three months later-

Nutmeg trotted down the stairs to see Twilight cooking some eggs and sausage, a small bulge on her stomach. He quietly sneaked up behind her and wrapped his hooves around her.

"Morning sweetie."

"Nutmeg, do you really have to work today?"

"Why Twi?"

"I just...I don't want you to leave me today."

Ever since pretty much all of Ponyville had found out Twilight was pregnant, they insisted she stayed home and have everything done for her. Honestly, she didn't mind but it was starting to get a little boring and with Nutmeg gone the whole week, she just couldn't keep herself busy. She had her books but with those crazy mood swings that came with being pregnant, she found it hard to focus on one thing for a long time.

"I...I don't have to go in today Twi. If my mare wants me here, then that's exactly where I'll be. Let me just give my boss a call."

"Thank you"

A small quick kiss and they parted Twilight going back to her eggs and Nutmeg making for the phone. After a quick chat with Mrs. Treasure, Nutmeg went back to the living room to turn on the TV. Twilight was already on the couch, enjoying a hearty helping of eggs. She patted the cushion next to her. Nutmeg grabbed some eggs and a piece of sausage and found Gravity Sponge, their favorite cartoon, on.

The two ate mostly in silence, the occasional chuckle from one of them at the cartoon's ridiculous dialogue. They both finished at the same time despite Twilight starting with much more. Nutmeg began to wonder how far those cravings would go before they subsided. But, before he could continue with that train of thought that was bound to lead no where good, Twilight broke the silence.

"I really think it was sweet of you to stay home today."

"Who am I to deny the most beautiful mare in Equestria such a simple request?"

She scooted closer to him and rested her head on his shoulder.

"I've been kind of bored here without you, you make my life a lot more...interesting." she said with a purr.

"Twilight, you have one day with me, what do you want to do?"

"I have a few ideas" she said giving a mischievous smile.

The day beyond that was a blur to Nutmeg. He remembers the mall and a lot of new dresses and shoes that were way too big for Twilight now but he knew in the next few months, she would grow into them. He remembered dinner at the best restaurant in Ponyville. The amazing daisy and grass sandwich and the even better hay cream afterward. Finally, he was walking back to the house with Twilight wrapped up in his jacket. The cool night air blowing through his light brown ruffled mane. The crickets and the frogs going about their nightly business. Luna's moon shining down on them in an abundance of silver light. Twilight's warm body pressed against his, and her soft mane brushing along the side of his face. But as they were walking, one real, clear thought came through his head.

All these stars and the night sky and the trees and just everything tonight is gorgeous. But,

Looking down he said

"Twilight, you are the most beautiful thing out here."

"You really think so?" she said tearing up.

"Twily, you'll always, no matter what I see, be the best thing I've ever laid eyes on.

She started softly crying tears of joy into his chest at that comment. He pulled her closer as they kept walking and Nutmeg, even though he considered himself a strong pony, let a single tear run down his cheek.Twilight felt it hit her muzzle, and looked up. She saw the tears in his eyes and cried a little more.

Approaching the house, Twilight collected herself as best she could and looked over to Nutmeg.

"Nutmeg, I'll be a good mother, right?"

He gave her a peck on the cheek and smiled back at her.

"The best."

She smiled back at him and gave a small nod.

"Thank you for saying that, I love you."

"I love you too Twilight, and don't worry, I know i'll make an awesome father.

She gave a small chuckle and they finally reached Nutmeg's house and walked inside to fall asleep together on that oh so comfortable bed of his. They laid down and Twilight was almost immediately out. Nutmeg could understand, she had been all over Celestia's creation today. He gave her another kiss on the cheek and a content smile formed on her mouth. He made his way down her purple form and kissed her belly, too.

"Night you two, I love both of you so much."

He wrapped his hooves around her figure and slipped off to a deep sleep.
