Twilight’s Love Volume Two: Rainbow’s Love
PART EIGHT: Truth
Previous ChapterNext Chapter“First, young filly,” said Twilight in her best motherly voice, the one she could remember her own mother using. “Respectable young ladies don’t use crude language like that.”
“Yes mom,” replied the filly sheepishly.
Rainbow was snickering, but stopped when Twilight shot an annoyed glance at her wife.
“Second,” continued Twilight, trying to tone down her reaction, she didn’t want to alienate her daughter after only four days of being her mother.
“What do you mean ‘after we kissed’?”
“It was just that,” said Scootaloo. “It wasn’t anything I was expecting.
From the movies I’ve seen and books I’ve read and watching you two, I don’t think it was a ‘romantic’ kiss. She was probably happy to have friends who were real friends.”
“Did you or she use your tongue?” asked Rainbow.
“No,” said Scootaloo, “it was just a kiss. I don’t think anything was really meant by it, and I’ve no plans to do it again. As I said, I just think Silver Spoon was being grateful for real friends.”
Twilight and Rainbow accepted and knew they had to trust their daughter. After all, she did tell them up front. Even if it were a slip up, she didn’t try to cover it up.
Even if Scootaloo did kiss Silver Spoon voluntarily, Twilight or Rainbow didn’t want to appear hypocritical.
Dinner was, as always at the Dash home, delicious. Even though it was so much better than what they served at the Home, Scootaloo wasn’t hungry. The thought of the kiss with Silver Spoon kept replaying in her mind.
Twilight and Rainbow did notice that Scootaloo appeared to be distracted, but they knew that it was something their daughter needed to work through. If she wanted them to help, they were sure she’d ask.
It was true what she had told her moms, she didn’t have any plans to do it again. But she wasn’t at all averse to letting it happen on its own.
After dinner was done and all the family helped clear away and wash the dishes, pots and pans, they went into the front room, which after library hours doubled as the family’s living room.
Spike was reading the latest Power Ponies comic book, Twilight was making out a list of things to do tomorrow and Rainbow was getting the plans together for tomorrow’s weather. After about an hour, Spike said he was going to bed, he was still a baby after all and needed more sleep than the other ponies there. Scootaloo was reading one of the Daring Do books her mothers had recommended. At first, she balked like Rainbow had. But, like Rainbow, when she got to the part where Daring found the temple, she was hooked.
But for now her mind wasn’t on Daring escaping from Ahuizotl. In fact, she’d stared at the same paragraph for the last hour. She was starting to realize that she was wanting to get another kiss from Silver Spoon and wondering what it would be like if tongue was involved the next time.
But as Spike was heard going into his and Scoot’s room, Twilight interrupted.
“Scootaloo,” said Twilight.
Scootaloo knew it must be important; her mom didn’t call her any endearment.
“We found out something today and we need to talk.”
“Okay,” said Scootaloo putting down the book.
“Has anypony ever talked to you about your wings?” asked Rainbow.
“No,” said the filly, becoming more curious than concerned. “I know I’ve been taken to the public clinic a couple of times when I was at the Home. They’d take x-rays of my wings and chest. But they never said anything. I just assumed it was a normal physical the Home was required to have the kids do.”
Twilight levitated a book to Scootaloo, it was an anatomy book and it was opened to a diagram about bones, the different parts were labeled.
“Do you see the section on the bone between the head and the shaft?” asked Twilight.
“Yes,” replied Scootaloo reading, “the growth plate.”
“Yes,” said Twilight, “it’s the part of the bone where the growth happens. If damaged, abnormal or diseased, the bone will not grow properly or at all.”
“Okay,” replied Scootaloo, “why are you telling me this?”
“Scootaloo, Sweetheart,” said Twilight, “that’s what Candy Mane wanted to talk to us about. Apparently the growth plates of your wing bones are diminished, or should I say, not what they should be.”
“I looked up the term ‘Special Needs’ Ms Candy Mane used,” said Scootaloo, “it said something about ponies who are disabled either mentally or physically.”
Tears were forming in Scootaloo’s eyes as she realized what they were telling her.
“So that’s what she meant. I’m a cripple, a Pegasus pony that’ll never fly.”
Scootaloo was never one who dwelt on the negative in her life. She always held out hope whatever came, it would work out eventually. Having these new mothers was proof of this.
But this hit her hard.
“I’m so sorry I’m a disappointment, Mama Rainbow. You’re the greatest flyer in Equestria if not the world and you’re now stuck with a Pegasus daughter who’ll never fly.”
Scootaloo started to cry uncontrollably. Rainbow’s aura formed around the filly and lifted her to Rainbow. She embraced the filly and cried with her. Rainbow’s actions made Twilight think of something, she bolted upstairs.
“You aren’t a disappointment,” said Rainbow, “and we aren’t stuck with you. We fell in love with you and chose you without you ever flying. And you aren’t a cripple. Your flight muscles are as strong as any other Pegasus your age, if not more. How do you think you’re able to go so fast on your scooter and pull your friends along without much effort? I’d bet none of your Pegasi friends who can fly could manage it.”
Twilight had returned and went to join the comforting hug.
“And who says you’ll never fly?” asked Twilight.
“My wings, you said they’d never grow right,” said Scootaloo.
“So?” asked Twilight.
Scootaloo’s crying was slowing as she became curious about what her mother was saying.
“What do you mean?” asked Scoot.
Twilight walked to the other end of the room.
“I can’t fly,” said Twilight, “right?”
“You’re a Unicorn,” said Scootaloo.
Rainbow was starting to understand where her wife was going with this.
“So?” asked Twilight.
“You have no wings,” said the filly.
Twilight just smiled, her horn glowed and the purple aura surrounded her. Then she lifted off the floor almost to the ceiling. Her legs outstretched just like Rainbow’s when she flies, Twilight zipped around the room, twisting and turning and even doing one loop. Then she settled down by Rainbow and Scootaloo.
“That wasn’t flying,” said Scoot.
“What’s flying then,” asked Rainbow.
“Flying is being able to make yourself travel through the air,” replied the filly.
“So I went through the ground? Or perhaps I walked over here?” asked Twilight. There was a flash and Twilight disappeared but quickly reappeared on the other side of the room. “Or did I teleport?”
Twilight walked back to her wife and daughter.
Scootaloo thought about it, there wasn’t any reason to say her mother didn’t fly just because she used magic.
“Okay,” said Scoot, “you flew with magic, but you’re a Unicorn.”
“Am I a Unicorn?” asked Rainbow.
“Of course not,” said Scootaloo.
Rainbow held her wings folded close to her body. Then Rainbow’s eyes glowed and her aura surrounded herself and she went through the air, just as Twilight had done. But perhaps a bit flashier. Then she landed beside her wife.
“Showoff!” said Twilight snickering. But she gave Rainbow a little kiss.
Scootaloo was starting to understand where her mothers were going with this line of reasoning.
“Can I learn to do that?” asked Scootaloo, starting to become excited.
A book Twilight had brought from upstairs floated to Scootaloo. It was the same book Cadence had given to Rainbow in Canterlot when she was learning to levitate.
“You’ll teach me levitation?” asked the filly.
“No,” said Twilight.
“But...” stammered Scootaloo.
“I could easily teach you, if you were a Unicorn,” said Twilight. “But the only pony who can teach a Pegasus to do levitation is another Pegasus who can do levitation.”
It wasn’t quite the truth, but Rainbow and Twilight understood what this would mean to Scootaloo.
“We’ll start tomorrow,” said Rainbow with a smile.
Rainbow had wanted to be the pony that’d teach Scootaloo to fly. But those dreams were crushed when they found out about her ‘condition’. But now she had a chance to teach her to fly and do so much more.
There were hugs all around. Scootaloo was so stoked, she was now certain she would ‘fly’ soon!
Plus she had her first real kiss today.
She couldn’t wait to tell her friends...
About the levitation.
“So who’s the cripple?’ asked Twilight.
“Nopony I know,” said Scootaloo all smiles.
“That’s right,” said Rainbow, “the only thing special needs about you is your mother and I will have to start watching you closer.”
“Yes,” said Twilight, “kissing another filly, who ever heard of such a thing?”
“What happened to: ‘Do I have to like girls too’?” asked Rainbow.
They all laughed.
Scootaloo had gone to bed about an hour ago. Rainbow and Twilight were deep into their lovemaking. They’d been married for over half a year now but it was still like new. Their love continued to grow as did their desire to please the pony they loved so much.
“Oh Celestia! Right there Lover-Pony, right there, don’t stop!” said Rainbow, backing away from her wife’s marehood enough to speak.
“I won’t if you won’t,” said Twilight muffled with her tongue in Rainbow.
The orgasm was rapidly approaching, it was going to be a good one for both when there was a knock at the door.
Scootaloo heard her mothers panicking; she knew it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to chide her parents for the mild curses they were whispering. Scoot snickered and blushed a bit, knowing what she’d just interrupted.
“Yes?” called out Twilight.
“May I come in for a moment?”
“Sure Squirt,” replied Rainbow.
Scootaloo opened the door and entered. Twilight and Rainbow were sitting up in the bed. Both were trying to get their heavy breathing under control.
“What’s up Sweetie?” asked Twilight.
“I can’t sleep,” said Scoot.
“Come up here,” said Rainbow.
Twilight levitated the blanket so their daughter could get in with them.
Scootaloo climbed up on the bed between her mothers, she figured she wouldn’t ask why the blanket was so messed up, she already knew the answer but didn’t want to embarrass her mothers...
This time.
“Are you having bad dreams?” asked Twilight.
“Is Spike snoring too loud?” asked Rainbow.
“We weren’t keeping you awake,” asked Twilight, slightly afraid to hear the answer, “were we?”
“No moms,” said Scootaloo, “I just keep thinking about this evening.”
“You’re excited about learning to levitate so you can fly?” asked Rainbow excitedly.
“I’m excited about that,” said the filly, “but it isn’t what I’m thinking about.”
“It’s Silver Spoon,” asked Twilight, “isn’t it.”
“Mom...
I think I really like her,” said Scootaloo.
“Well she’s your friend,” said Rainbow, “why shouldn’t you like her?”
“I don’t think that’s what she’s saying,” said Twilight.
“Ohhhhhh!” said Rainbow.
Even in the low light, it was easy to tell their daughter blushed.
“I can’t stop thinking of Silver; I can’t stop thinking of her kissing me. It confused me at first. But now, I think I really liked it.
Is it wrong of me? I know we’re young.”
“I was younger than you when I kissed my first colt,” said Rainbow, “it started out as a way to mess with his head. But I found I really liked it too.
But you see where it led.”
“So you think me kissing Silver Spoon is going to get me pregnant?” asked Scootaloo kidding.
“Hardly,” said Rainbow rolling her eyes, “but we’d really like it if you put thought into with who you become involved with and how deep.
It’s fun. But it can carry some emotional baggage which will stick with you for the rest of your life.
You’re young and have time to discover these things.
At least your other mother never had to be concerned with those things, I was her first.”
“Yes Honey,” Said Twilight, with a snicker, “you were the first pony I ever gave myself to...
Fully.
But you weren’t the first pony I ever kissed.”
There was a quiet moment as it sunk in.
“Oh yeah?” said Scootaloo with a smile.
“Oh yeah!” said Rainbow, taken aback.
“You know Minuet,” asked Twilight.
“The blue Unicorn with the hourglass cutie mark?” asked Rainbow.
“The one you call ‘Mini’…
The one you meet for tea sometimes?”
“Yes, we were at the School for Gifted Unicorns together,” said Twilight.
“I thought you didn’t have any friends there,” said Rainbow, not sure if she should become jealous.
“I didn’t have friends there the same way I do here. However, there were ponies I’d go to movies or other activities with. We weren’t as close knit as Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie and Fluttershy but you could have considered Minuet, Lemon Hearts, Twinkleshine, Lyra Heartstrings and Moon Dancer as friends. They’d go for the entertainment; I convinced myself I was only going for social interaction research.” Said Twilight, looking down in Scootaloo’s eyes and stroking her mane.
“However, I don’t remember ever telling anypony I never had a...
Marefriend.”
Rainbow’s jaw dropped, Twilight continued:
“One evening Minuet talked me into going with her to a very adult movie;
50 Shades of Hay...
Several years earlier, before Twilight had graduated from school...
Two ponies are walking through the castle grounds, they’re on their way to the school dorm after watching a late feature at the movies.
“Oh Twilight!” said Minuet, “wasn’t that the most wonderful movie ever?”
“I guess,” said Twilight analyzing the plot devices in her head. “It was a complicated interaction between two ponies. The level of emotional expression was puzzling however. Especially the reaction starting with the physical contact with the lips.”
“Twilight, you make it sound like a science project or physical exam,” replied Minuet.
“Well I hope I never have a physical exam where the doctor tries to stick their tongue in my mouth. The implications of the exchange of bodily fluids sound most unsanitary.
Especially the exchange of bodily fluids which came after the kissing. Kissing and orally stimulating another pony’s genitalia and anus. (Twilight gave a full body shudder.)
I almost had to leave; the thought was making me sick. And don’t get me started about using of the act of copulation for recreation.”
“You’re a mess, Twilight Sparkle,” said Minuet, shaking her head, “I truly hope one day you’ll loosen up and enjoy life.”
“I enjoy life,” exclaimed Twilight. “When I discover a new fact, it can keep me up all night as I appreciate the deep logic the universe has to offer.
It’s just emotional reactions get in the way and I find it has no real appeal to me.
Especially when you put the mixing of genders into the equation. I’m afraid the thought of a colt doing anything physical to me at the level the movie was showing, well it disgusts...
No, it actually sickens me.”
Minuet thought for a moment, and then a small smile crossed her face. She started to think how to put it into terms to catch Twilight’s attention.
“Let’s try an experiment,” said the blue Unicorn.
“What type of experiment?” asked Twilight, Minuet was speaking her language.
As the two had been walking, they were now by the formal statue garden. In the garden were benches for ponies to sit and rest or just admire the art. But this time of the late evening, when it was dark, they made nice private spots for rendezvous.
“Come with me,” said Minuet leading Twilight to a secluded bench at the very back of the garden. “Have a seat and get comfortable, we could be her a while.”
Twilight sat, Minuet sat by her very, very close. Twilight didn’t mind, it was starting to get cool and the warmth of Minuet was welcome.
“Let’s analyze the theorem, but let’s change some of the variables,” said Minuet , “how does that sound?”
The way Minuet phrased it intrigued Twilight.
“Okay,” said Twilight, “I’m listening.”
“Good,” said Minuet , scooting a little closer to Twilight. The softness of Minuet's flank felt nice against her own. Then Minuet took Twilight’s hoof in hers.
“Now,” said Minuet, “close your eyes and think of the movie again, but in your mind replace the stallion...
With a mare.”
Twilight closed her eyes; she could see what Minuet was saying. The thought of the two mares in most of the interactions, though awkward when trying to figure some of the later interactions, didn’t disgust her.
In fact, she found it appealing.
She didn’t realize it but she was starting to smile.
“I thought as much,” said Minuet.
“What?” said Twilight, opening her eyes. Not knowing to what Minuet might be referring.
Minuet’s face was close.
“You’re a mare-lover,” said Minuet.
Twilight was shocked, she never thought of herself as any kind of lover.
“It’s nothing to be ashamed of. I’m a mare-lover.”
As Twilight thought, it started to make sense. She’d never been comfortable around colts; her brother was a different thing. But mares she found to be visually pleasing. She knew if a colt sat as close as Minuet was doing now, actually touching or holding her hoof, she would’ve moved away instantly. Whereas the physical contact with Minuet was pleasant.
“Perhaps,” said Twilight, “but I still don’t get the reaction to the kissing. It just doesn’t appear to be sanitary.”
Minuet laughed at the stubborn refusal of Twilight to think in emotional terms.
“You need advanced field research.”
“What?” asked Twilight not sure where Minuet was going with this.
“You need somepony to kiss you,” said Minuet, “and I mean a good kiss! Not a motherly goodnight kiss, peck on the lips either.
Then you’d understand.”
“Like that’ll ever happen,” Twilight chuckled.
“I was hoping you’d say that,” said Minuet with a twinkle in her eyes.
Minuet just smiled and before Twilight knew it, Minuet had put her forelegs around Twilight. She drew her close and proceeded to instruct Twilight in the fine art of kissing.
Twilight tried to resist but her forelegs had a mind of their own. They pulled Minuet close as Twilight gave in to passion for the first time in her life.
The feel of Minuet’s tongue was doing something to her. Her body was feeling hot, flush and parts were aching for more stimulation. The world around was vanishing. All Twilight could see in her mind’s eye was Minuet. The thoughts of earlier where she had, in her mind, replaced the stallion in the movie with a mare, the mare was now Minuet and the first pony became Twilight.
The world of emotional release opened for the first time in Twilight’s mind. Things that’d been thought unnecessary or useless were coming into focus in this new frame of reference.
When they broke the kiss, Twilight didn’t even consider the exchange of saliva, even with the string of it still connecting the two mare’s tongues. The two were breathing heavily.
“Not bad for a beginner,” said Minuet. “You’ve no idea how long I’ve been looking for an excuse to do that.”
“I never knew,” said Twilight quietly and smiling. “And now, I wish you’d have done it sooner.”
Minuet smiled as Twilight gently pulled Minuet closer to resume the kiss. She couldn’t believe the joy she was feeling. Minuet was very pleased with Twilight’s actions.
This continued for about an hour.
Finally, they realized it was getting late and they had to return to the dorm.
“Minuet,” said Twilight, “thank you for the instruction. It truly opened my eyes to something I never considered.”
“My pleasure, really. You appear to be a fast learner,” said Minuet. “But with any new skill, you do need practice to perfect it.”
“Are you suggesting follow up sessions?” asked Twilight hopefully. “I hope you’re saying you want to be my research partner.”
“I think that would be agreeable. And the term, to be precise, is marefriend. And call me Mini.
I even have some novels which might help you with some research,” said Minuet with a smile and giving Twilight a small kiss.
“I think I’m going to like this marefriend stuff, Mini,” said Twilight.
“Me too, Twi,” said Minuet.
The two fillies smiled at each other, kissed a short kiss then hey continued back to the dorm, hoof in hoof.
Back in the present...
We continued the relationship for about a year. Things were getting serious, we'd often explore each other but we never quite ‘went all the way’. We came close oh so many times and at times, it was hard to stop.
But after that we both made a vow to not give ourselves to anypony at the level we were interacting again unless they were a pony who truly and totally loved us. We figured what we were doing was more lust than love. Mini is still a dear friend, but she has her own relationships and I have you.
But she was so happy when she first heard about us.”
Rainbow sat dumbfounded.
“So that’s why you’re such a good kisser,” Rainbow said.
Scootaloo looked up at Twilight and smiled at something she had never ever considered about the reserved Unicorn, now her mother.
“Thank you,” said Twilight leaning over and giving Rainbow a little kiss. “I’ll give Mini your complements.”
“And I guess I’ll need to go with you when you have tea with your research partner Mini,” chuckled Rainbow.
All three ponies laughed.
“Well, at least I was second,” said Rainbow.
“You were,” said Twilight with a gleam in her eye, “if you don’t count the technique comparing research session at the sleepover with Mini, Twinkleshine and Lemon Hearts. Oh Luna, that was some party! Pinkie Pie would’ve been impressed.”
“Lover-Pony!” exclaimed Rainbow.
Twilight just giggled.
Scootaloo thought it best to change the subject before she became a member of a broken home.
“So what do I do?” asked Scoot.
“Sweetheart,” said Twilight. “You’re young, but you’re getting older and it’s normal for you to be curious about such things as relationships and intimacies. But you need to be careful if you do any ‘exploring’ with somepony. You may be driven by your feelings but you need to remember, their feelings have to be taken into consideration.
And for Celestia’s sake, never force or allow somepony to force you to do anything you don’t want to. If they try to bully you or threaten to hurt you or your family, remember all you need to do is come to me or your other mother. Nopony, NOPONY, can do anything to us with impunity.
Your mother Rainbow is a pony to be reckoned with. She may be a mare, but with her speed and agility, I’d bet there isn’t a stallion who would come out the winner in a confrontation with her, not even Bulk Biceps.”
“And I’d not like to be the pony who thinks they could outdo your mother horn to horn. She isn’t Celestia’s protégé for nothin’.” said Rainbow. “Just ask Trixie Lulamoon.”
Rainbow and Twilight looked lovingly into each other’s eyes.
Scootaloo’s heart swelled with pride at the realization of just how awesome her mothers really are.
“Silver Spoon says Diamond Tiara calls her homely and she has a secret she’s held over her head to keep her as a friend.” said Scoot. “I think it’s the fact that Silver likes girls, and Diamond thinks if she tells ponies then Silver would be hated and nopony would want to be around her.
I know it’s just to make Silver Spoon feel inferior because I don’t think Silver is homely.” Then blushing, “I think she’s cute.”
Both Twilight and Rainbow smiled.
“You need to help your friend and let her know what a terrible thing it is for somepony to try making her be what she’s not.” Said Rainbow, then kidding; “personally, I think it’s disgusting having two girls liking each other and kissing.”
Then looking at Scootaloo with mischief in her eyes, Rainbow started in a Pinkie Pie sing-song voice:
“♪Scootaloo-has-a-marefriend! Scootaloo-has-a-marefriend! ♪”
That was met with a love tap from Twilight and Scootaloo. Then the three laughed and lay back on the bed.
There was a group hug; Scootaloo laid her head on Twilight’s shoulder with her forelegs reaching out to Rainbow.
“I’m so lucky, thanks for understanding, I love my moms so much,” said Scootaloo as she started to drift off to sleep.
“It’s what moms do,” said Twilight, as she and Rainbow kissed her on the cheek. “And we love you just as much, my lovely daughter.”
Scootaloo smiled as Rainbow and Twilight held the little filly as she went to sleep.
“I still can’t believe we have such a special daughter,” said Twilight.
“A special daughter and a special wife,” said Rainbow, “even if she’s kissed half the fillies in Canterlot.
So by the way, who’s the better kisser?”
Twilight chuckled softly, and kissed Rainbow lightly.
“Who???”
“Goodnight Honey,” said Twilight.
They held each other and Scootaloo, and then drifted off to sleep.
