Part one of a two part chapter...

Heartbreaks and Heartstrengths

The two queens awoke before Celestia rose the sun in order to finish getting everything ready for the exile, but the first thing they had to achieve was getting out of bed. "Morning Chrssy..." Flurry said with a bright smile. "I know we had fun, but now it is time to get down to business in order to leave by noon."

"Alrig-" Chrysalis instantly snapped awake at realizing the bridle and ring inhibitor were still on her, a quick shake of her barrel confirmed her thought that the saddle Flurry rode was also still on as well so she had to talk around the bit that was hampering her words slightly. "Please take these off me Flurry..."

"No my subqueen I will not, not until your punishment is over for being a bad mare, so in other words when we leave." Flurry sweetly replied while kissing her lover, for the briefest of brief moments swearing she could taste the love Chrysalis was giving her. "However my little lovebug, I've been thinking, we need a way to make sure nothing gets forced while we clop."

"Like safe words?"

Flurry nodded. "Yeah, how about we make ours food? Mango to keep going, chocolate to go slow, and pudding to stop; this way we both don't get carried away and be forced to do something we don't want to do."

"Woah now....then pudding, please remove theses things from me since I'd rather not wear them when we are in public." Chrysalis' words were a bit muffed since she had her head underneath the alicorn's muzzle and snuggling her lovers neck, letting her scent fill her nostrals, but they still were understandable.

"Sorry my love bug, but you will wear them all day, now enough wasting time, we got to move." Flurry got up to start her morning routine, and by the time Chrysalis got up and hour and a half later there was nothing else to do as she made her way to breakfast, already knowing that her meal was gonna be love and milk...not that she was complaining. When she entered the dining room, she was surprised to see Shining Armor there talking with Flurry, and the shock turned to embarrassment as the unicorn took one look at her and started laughing.

"About time you got up..." Flurry's tone was not welcoming, instead it was irritated, which told Chrysalis all she need to know about what her plans were for the coming night since she somehow once again managed to get on Flurry's bad side. "Dad here thought it would be nice to spend one nice meal with me."

"That is right the Flurry of my Heart, to be perfectly honest I am glad the two of you are together." His words caused both lover's jaws to drop and he chuckled at their reactions. "Please let me explain...." The two mares then leaned in close to listen to Shining's story.
