Ch1: Christmas Eve (v1.1.2)

The year had been long and hard for the lavender mare but it was the best year Twilight ever had in her entire life! She had managed to find many good friends and she had saved all of Equestria from sudden doom, from both the hoofs of Nightmare Moon and the claws of Discord.

Now the year would soon be over as Xmas approached and soon after the new year would come, she wished that the next year would be just as if not even greater than this year had already been and it wasn’t even over yet!

It was winter now and everypony had been invited to the celestial sisters’ grand Christmas Eve party at their mighty sky castle. Twilight and all of her friends had received personal invitations from the solar princess Celestia herself.

Twilight was bouncing happily around in her tree library, she was really looking forward to see her mentor again. It had been months since they had last seen each other, but she was also very eager to meet Luna once more, since their last meeting at ‘Nightmare Night’ she wondered how the night goddess had been doing, learning how to fit in after her millennium long exile and cope with a modern Equestria. The lavender mare really hoped that her lessions of friendship had made a bit of an impact on Luna’s life and would aid her in her growth to become the moon goddess she was always meant to be by her sister’s side.

Twilight Sparkle looked at the clock noticing the time, she would soon have to take her leave for Rarity’s house, where she and her friends were supposed to meet and pick up their dresses before they would get a ride by a royal chariot set by the solar princess.

She decided to leave her home a little earlier than she needed, so she could enjoy a slow walk through Ponyville and enjoy the wintry scenery. She took on her red scarf and boots before she called for Spike to get him out of bed. It took a little while before she heard him dump onto the floor and making his way to the wooden door to their combined sleeping quarter.

“Isn’t this a little early?” He asked her while rubbing his eyes, remembering the time when Twilight wanted to help with the ‘winter wrap up’ where she had gotten out of bed and ran outside in the middle of the night hours before anypony else was even awake.

“Oh, I just wanted to take a small trip around ponyville, to kill time and enjoy the new snow!” Twilight cheerfully replied to her sheepish assistant.

Spike didn’t say anything as Twilight levitated him onto her back. She then walked outside and closed the door behind her. It was snowing outside, ever so softly a snowflake landed on Twilight’s nose, she giggled softly as the flake tickled her nose. Twilight set her course towards Rarity’s house, while enjoying December’s first snow falling down around her.

Twilight Sparkle thought back to this year’s ‘winter wrap up’ where she had been completely lost at first and felt really sad and lonely because she didn’t feel like she was fitting in with the villagers of Ponyville, at least not until she found her place as the organizer and had received the title of ‘all team organizer’. She was already looking forward to organize it all once more in the new year.

After a short and lovely trip; she and Spike now found themselves in front of Rarity’s home, it sounded as if quite a commotion was taking place inside. Twilight and Spike shared a short glance at each other, Spike just lifted his shoulders indicating that he too had no idea what was going on inside. So Twilight decided to open the door and walk inside.

All of her closest friends were there; Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity and of course Spike who now slid off her back, probably heading towards Rarity to drool all over her. She looked at her friends who seemed to be locked in a hearty discussion which seemed to have created the commotion one could hear from the outward the house. Twilight Sparkle just smiled at her sometimes silly friends as she walked over to join them, being the curious little mare that she is.

No one seemed to notice either her or Spike, even though she stood right next Applejack now. Celestia’s prized student just stood there for a moment thinking her friends would probably notice her, but after several minutes and nothing happening she grew restless and spoke up, making herself noticed. “Hi girls, whatcha doin’?” She asked, she hadn’t really been listening to whatever they were discussing with one another. She thought they would have noticed her right away, anyways.

Pinkie Pie looked at her quickly before she replied. “Hi Twilight.” She merely said as she looked back to the other mares talking. A few seconds passed before she looked back at Twilight again. “Hi Twilight!” She said like she had just noticed her for the very first time that day. “It’s good to see you! Aren’t you excited? I’ll never forget the Grand Galloping Gala where you acted like such a silly filly.” She said, probably more to herself than to Twilight.

Now Twilight was greeted by everypony, finally her presence to be known. “So what are we talking about?” She asked.

“Apparently Rarity couldn’t decide what kind of dresses to make us, so instead she made several dresses for each of us, but all of the different kinda dresses she made are made in series to match with each oth-” Applejack tried to explain as Rainbow Dash cut her short.

“Yeah! But I don’t like that red Xmasy stuff!” Dash said with a huff.

“You see?” Applejack told Twilight as she rolled her eyes at her mare friend.

“I don’t get it.” Twilight told them confused. “Then why doesn’t Rainbow Dash just use the one that isn’t all jolly red?” She asked.

“That’s just the thing!” Rarity informed her. “If one goes with the red then we all go with the red! Or else we won’t fit as a group! Helloo-oooo! It’s seasonal clothing?!” She told them all dramatically.

“Yep, Dash’s just being difficult… again.” Applejack added earning herself a glace from the rainbow pegasus.

Twilight thought for a moment before she came with her alternative. “Well since it is the Christmas spirit and we have been invited to a Christmas Eve party, wouldn’t it be more appropriate to follow the season’s style?” She asked her pegasus friend.

“Shush Twilight!” Rainbow Dash demanded. “Don’t fill their small pony heads with such logic nonsense.”

“I’ll go with the egghead on this one.” Applejack agreed with Twilight, earning narrow eyes from her. For some reason Applejack was always after poor Dashie and even if it was true or not Twilight didn’t like too much to be called an egghead.

“Fine, jeez!” Rainbow Dash replied with her best impression at Solid Serpent. After she had put on her dress she went for the closest mirror she could find, taking a closer look at herself. “So much red is definitely so not my thing…” Dash muttered.

“Stop being such a silly filly, that’s my job! Beside you look just oki doky loki! Almost like a Christmas sugarcane!” Pinkie Pie told her friend happily.

“I hope that we won’t make such a mess as we did the last time.” Applejack wryly added to the conversation. Twilight looked hurtful and shallow at this, but Pinkie Pie was fast to the rescue.

“Aw, don’t look so gloomy Twilight, Celestia said it was fun!” Pinkie Pie encouraged her nerdy friend but before Twilight could answer an abrupt knock was heard at the outer door.

“Oh, that’s probably Celestia’s sent carriage!” Twilight Sparkle exclaimed with a glee as she rushed towards the door but just as she had opened the door she was caught with surprise. Outside stood two dark figures, both tall and malice looking, they were both covered in dark purple armor and with batwings. They glanced down at Twilight with their wicked yellow eyes, earning a small gulp from the lavender mare. These ponies aren’t Celestia’s guards Twilight thought for herself, but before she could ask them one of them spoke up.

“We’re here to escort the bearers of the elements and their dragon associate to the celestial Xmas party.” One of Luna’s personal guards told Twilight. “So if you would all be so kind and come with us, so we may complete our task.” He then added with a small bow and a hoof pointing towards their chariot.

“How come Celestia’s guards didn’t come to pick us up?” Twilight asked the two intimidating stallions. The batpony didn’t answer, he just looked towards the other stallion as if he sought guidance from the other as to answer her question or not.

“We were out on an errand and were told to bring you with us on our return to the royal castle.” The other nightmarish batpony told her simply, not explaining anything further.

Twilight not wanting to push her luck simply turned around and called for the others, telling them that their escort had come a little early and that it was time to leave for the party.

The other mares walked cautious past the two tall stallions, as they left Rarity’s house. Not saying a word as they passed the two of them, well besides a sudden pegasus, which was quite unexpected.

“Hello sirs.” Flutteryshy gently greeted the two scary looking ponies as she walked pass them, giving them a polite nod. She could swear she almost got a smile in return from the two of them.

Now they were all sitting comfortably but maybe a bit too tight in Luna’s royal chariot, not really being designed to hold so many ponies at once. All of them now looking forward, staring at the well-shaped buttocks of the first batpony ‘the benefit of being a princess’ one might assume. They all blushed a little at the sight, probably seeing more than one should.

“They sure stay in shape.” Rarity thoughtlessly said out loud earning them all a death glace from the batpony just in front of them, who’s behind most of them were all drooling over. In her dumbfoundedness Rarity couldn’t help but to simply wave a hoof to him while trying to give him an honest harmless smile, at which he just turned around again. Luna’s guards sure weren’t like Celestia’s, they would not even have flinched, but these batponies take hay from nopony.

Soon they found themselves flying through the darkening sky over the clouds. It was a sight to behold, Celestia’s sun could clearly be seen making its descent behind the cover of Equestria, slowly making room for the night with the moon and the astonishing constellations.

By the time they could see the majestic tall towers of the celestial castle. The sun had disappeared and thus the moon was slowly ascending, so far only showing half of itself. As they finally landed on the ground and arrived at the royal castle, Twilight’s little pony heart was burning with excitement. She and her friends thanked Luna’s two guards before they quickly made their way through the royal gardens to the entrance of the castle itself.

At the sight of the castle Rarity froze at the spot, remembering her encounter with the noble self-obsessed jerk prince Blueblood, surely he would also attend this party, which made her shivering for a moment. She shaked her head, clearing it of those unpleasant thoughts of the jackass and hurried up to her friends who had gotten ahead of her.

There were a lot of ponies all over the place, the gardens seemed almost filled with every kind of pony from every kind of the social ladder, royals as well as commoners. There were a lot of pretty decorated Christmas trees around as well, all with fine glowing stars at the top. Twilight noticed that they were made of magic which must have been why they had that extra glow to them.

They all made it inside the castle before they decided to split up for a moment to greet some of the other ponies they knew before they would get back together and enjoy Christmas Eve in the company of those they cherished the most.

Twilight of course went for the big hall where she knew Celestia would be greeting her many guests, and true enough there she was, at the top of the tall staircase overlooking the entire hall, greeting a long line of all kind of pony folk. Twilight thought for a bit, the right thing to do would probably get into the line and wait to get her turn, but that would take forever! Then suddenly she heard Celestia’s voice calling for her to join her. Twilight was a little unsure how to feel about this, she was clearly abusing her bond with Celestia, it’s not like she was more important than any of the others that sought her company, but right now she put those thought aside as she jumped up the mighty stairs getting many unpleasant glances by the many ponies she skipped past.

“Hello Twilight Sparkle, my faithful student.” Her mentor said softly as Twilight reached her, the two of them then shared a deep embrace, earning Twilight even further dislike from the nearby crowd.

“I’ve missed you Celestia.” Twilight told the solar princess as she nuzzled her, until she suddenly thought of something of equal impermanence. “Where is Luna?” She asked.

Celestia looked up breaking the contact as she looked over the halls. “Oh, she’s around… somewhere… mingling in the crowd, which is kind of odd knowing she isn’t very... you know, social.” The princess told her star student with a smile and a thoughtful expression. Maybe she was out there planning to pull a prank on somepony, Celestia thought for herself.

“I guess I’ll go find her then, I don’t want to take all of your time when so many else want to have a word with you.” Twilight said honestly but also with a sudden hint of regret.

“Sorry Twilight, I’ll see if I can make better time for you sometime so we can… what you call it these days ‘hang-out’?” She asked with a bit of a frown.

Twilight giggled at this. “Yes of course your highness! I’ll see you later!” She replied with glee, before she jumped down the stairs, now in search of the moon goddess. Twilight wandered around in the great hall where most of the visitors were in search of Luna, until Celestia’s prized student suddenly walked into somepony else, much to her surprise it was nopony else than Luna herself.

”Oh, hello there princess, I didn’t se-” Was all she got to say before the lunar princess planted a pair of soft lips on her mouth; cutting her speech a little short. At first the lavender mare was surprised and quite frankly also physically stunned by the unsuspected and sudden intimate forwardness shown by one of the celestial sisters, but she soon found herself lost in the affection she was given. They both closed their eyes at the contact and as if on reaction they both drifting off into the moment humming slightly.

If the kissing had just ended there it probably wouldn’t have created such a commotion and the few ponies that actually noticed would probably just think it was pretty cute and then move on. But what happened from there on; was a completely different story. The initial kiss was short and soft but as the two departed from their little blissful event they would soon find themselves gazing deeply into each other’s eyes. Luna was very proud of herself, she had managed to catch Twilight under her mistletoe dangling from the tip of her horn and did the traditional gesture, she had been waiting patiently ever since she saw Twilight leaving Celestia’s side for the right moment to strike.

Luna wanted to say her Christmas greeting, but no words came from her. What was supposed to be an innocent and traditionally little meaningless kiss; had suddenly turned into something else, something Luna couldn’t quite put her hoofs on, but her thoughts dangled behind her as she lost herself into those magical purple eyes and before she knew of it, she found herself engaged in yet another heart rhythm altering, soul shaking kiss. This time the lunar princess was the one in shock and now it was Twilight, who was the aggressor pressing forward, which resulted in sharing yet another blissful moment.

Luna much to her own surprise let out a soft moan as Twilight had forced the princess of the moon into their second kiss. This wasn’t according to traditions Luna pondered for a moment. Shouldn’t it be only a single kiss when one was caught under a mistletoe? But in truth she didn’t really feel like complaining as she let herself slide into the lovely feeling. Enjoying the tremendous gesture delightedly! Probably a lot more than she was supposed to, but right now nothing else mattered to Luna - this was simply too good for her not to enjoy! No matter what others might think of it, but such trivial thoughts as the concern of others were pushed aside as she lost herself into the moment.

They both simultaneously lifted their right hind leg from the white marble floor that covered most of the castle as they continued their transgression. Luna had grown bolder and soon found her tongue asking Twilight for permission to entrance, which she seemed more than happy to allow. Twilight’s mouth parted slightly without their lips breaking contact, just barely making enough space for Luna to enter her mouth, but she in turn found herself enter Luna’s mouth like it was the common thing to do, which it probably also was.

The two of them were wobbling a little bit back and forth as their tongues fought each other for dominance, unseen by the ever growing stares of the other guests at the grand Christmas party, all while the two of them were moaning and purring lowly.

As their mouths parted for the second time that evening a thick string of drool was hanging between them and as they once again opened their eyes and once again found themselves starting at each other’s eyes, now sharing a shy smile and a visible blush on both of them.

“My bedchambers, now.” Luna told Celestia’s faithful student teasing- and suggestively.

“After you, your highness.” Twilight said with a low bow and a giggle.

And with that Luna warped one of her wings around the lavender unicorn before the two of them left the great hall and the many stunned ponies including the solar princess whose jaw was now located on the floor, behind. All the time unknown to Twilight that Luna had the prettiest little mistletoe that she herself had spent all of Christmas’s morning to find in the forest just for her little saviour; Twilight Sparkle.

Twilight couldn’t help but smile brightly while she thought that her wish had been fulfilled, the next year would be even greater than this one, she just knew it!

Also she didn’t get to see her friends for the rest of the day, but that was okay. They had all walked in and seen the same as pretty much everypony else had.

Ch2: New Year's Eve (v1.1.2)

Christmas was now over and the end of the year was approaching, and soon New Year’s Eve celebration would be upon them. That time of the year where everypony would celebrate the ending year as well as welcoming the new. All of Equestria would celebrate all night long with their friends, families and lovers, and then they would sleep during the day of the first day of the New Year. It was least to say one of Luna’s favoured days of the year.

Several days had now passed by since the grand Christmas Eve celebration where Luna and Twilight had shared their rather unique experience with each other and most of the ponydom to behold. Ever since their little ‘collision’ Twilight had been sleeping alongside Luna inside her bedchambers within the celestial castle and Celestia had been very busy with all the preparations for both Christmas Eve and now New Year’s Eve that she hadn’t really have had the time to oblige the two about their newfound relationship.

Celestia was sitting at the dining table early morning at New Year’s Day, but she wasn’t alone; at the other end of the long majestic marble table were the two newly formed lovebirds, giggling and teasing each other as they were both sharing one chair and one plate of breakfast. Celestia couldn’t help herself and lifted an eyebrow at the sight before her. Twilight was ‘trying’ to feed Luna a spoon of soup, it had looked so ridiculous that even the two of them had burst out into laughter as Luna made a slurpy sound when trying to sip the soup out of the spoon.

After the laughter died down somewhat Luna had apparently felt a little ‘fishy’ as she began to nuzzle her new found love’s neck and started to lick her from all the way over to her bottom cheek, earning her a soft moan from the lavender mare and a obvious blush from her sister across the table.

This was almost like a live presentation, Celestia thought for the briefest of moments while she looked away. That was really no way for a royalty to act in public, then again they were as home as they could get, but Luna probably didn’t care where they were or how many saw them, she sure hadn’t at the Christmas celebration where the whole ponydom had come to learn of their little ‘secret’ that really wasn’t so much of a secret these days. Knowing Luna she would most likely just ignore everypony else and ignore how ignorant the world could be of love.

Celestia looked back at the two, now a huge grin were plastered on Luna’s face, as if she was challenging Twilight to do something, which she also did, well beside blushing that is. She glommed the other mare forcefully and they both fell to the floor. Celestia on reaction tilted her head so she could see what they were doing on the floor from the table frame. And there they lied, kissing each other on the mouth. She looked back up with narrow eyes, now she was sort of becoming jealous of the two mares; it had been ages since she had been snuggling around with someone else in such a love-struck way.

At first Celestia had just thought that it was merely a phase or something, where the young lovers just had let their hormones run wild, uncontrollable for the two inexperienced mares, so she hadn’t said a word to the two mares about their very uncommon relationship they now shared with each other as she thought it would soon come to a end on its own. But after watching the two of them so closely over the last several days Celestia had sort of come to terms with that this might not just be a little silly game of tag and superficial feelings. She had seen them sharing and caring for each other, not even for a moment did she hear either argue with the other and they were almost inseparable and when she had been listening to them in the night, not once had she heard them do any of the ‘naughty stuff’. It always sounded like they told each other stories from their lives.

She had heard Luna tell Twilight about her imprisonment inside of the moon for a millennium, which had in turn reminded Celestia of sadder times, where she had been so lonely and so troubled that she had been forced to banish her younger sister. But she had found some comfort in that Luna had told her faithful student that it hadn’t been as bad as some might think, after all she had been sleeping for all those many years in peace and quiet. She had also told Twilight that Celestia was the one who had really been suffering by being forced to banish her little sister and to endure all of those centuries on her own, which had brought a joyful tear to Celestia’s eye.

Celestia had already made her preparations for their presumable breakup with comforting words for the two of them so either wouldn’t be to hurt and hopefully could still remain friends. But as Celestia saw them now with open eyes and with an open heart, she truly felt like there would never be a need for it.

The lovely pair had grown on her, even if most would say how wrong it was, it still felt right to the solar goddess. She had always thought that relationships like these were built on lust and/or admiration, but Twilight and Luna had opened her eyes and her heart, she saw nothing between them other than care for each other, like they were handling another part of themselves or perhaps even their soul, as if it was as fragile as the most delicate glass that existed.

But as Celestia’s own personal displeasure of the two had turned into love and care, she had instead now become worried of what others might think or even worse do against them. Surely no one would dare to lay a hoof against the goddess of the night, being the strongest pony in all of Equestria beside herself, but Twilight? Well she had become a national hero of the land by saving it more than once, so surely no one would do anything against her either. So maybe everything would be okay? Celestia couldn’t really tell, only time could, but for now her curiosity had gotten the better of her and she really wanted to be there for the two of them, supporting them if so needed. So she decided to approach Twilight about the matter, because even though Luna was still far older than her; Twilight was still the one most socially experienced of the two, even though she was still a socially awkward unicorn.

Celestia rose from her chair and slowly walked over to the ball of fur rolling back and forth over the white marble floor, nuzzling and making sloppy wet kissing noises. Celestia coughed “I’m sorry, but can I borrow Twilight for a little while?” She asked the blur of fur.

They suddenly stopped fooling around and Luna quickly got up on all four. “Sure!” Luna simply replied in an overzealous tone.

The sun goddess just looked at her, but as nothing happened she felt like she had to try a little harder to tell her sister what she really meant. “I mean alone.” Celestia told Luna, telling her the point was that Luna was suppose to go elsewhere while she had a little talk with her faithful student.

“Oh, right.” Luna said a bit embarrassed that she hadn’t caught on with her sister’s subtle hint. “I’ll wait for you in ‘our’ bedchambers.” Luna told Twilight with a wink and a soft kiss on the cheek before bouncing away; leaving the two of them behind, one more taken aback than the other.

“Sooo….” Celestia started out after her sister had left the dining hall, she was a little unsure of how to start a conversation with her prized student about her newfound marefriend.

“I’m guessing you want to talk about me and Luna?” Twilight asked the princess, saving her from her loss of words.

“Yeah…” Celestia replied mildly.

After a few minutes of complete silence, Twilight merely tilted her head; giving Celestia a sign to go on.

This felt really awkward to Celestia; she almost felt like she was Twilight’s student and didn’t know anything about anything. “How are you and my sister holding up?” She finally asked, saying the only words she could come up with.

“Well…” Twilight started, looking thoughtful. “Okay, I guess, I can’t really say that I’ve tried something like this before…” She trailed off, not really sure how to explain, so she decided to change the subject a little. “I was pretty embarrassed when I found out that Luna had merely been pulling a prank on me when she kissed me, I had no idea that there was mistletoe. I thought that your sister kissed me because she really liked me and well I do like Luna so… yeah. But I’m glad I misunderstood her gesture, or else I probably wouldn’t be here right now, then I would most likely have been in Ponyville again.”

Celestia just smiled. “Well she does seem happy but nonetheless I’m still a little concerned, not many would approve of your relationship, but it probably helps with her being a goddess and you, well being the hero of Equestria and my most prized student.”

Twilight looked a little puzzled at her. “I haven’t really thought about it like that and I’m not really sure that I care about what others think of us, well beside my friends that is, I’m a little scared of what my they think of it. I haven’t heard a word from any of them since that day.”

“Have you tried to talk to them?” Celestia asked.

“No, not yet at least, as you probably know I haven’t been to Ponyville for several days and I haven’t had the courage to write any of them.”

“I see…” Celestia looked thoughtful for a moment. “Didn’t you have plans to spend New Year’s Eve with them?” She then asked.

“Yes, but-”

“No ‘buts’.” Celestia cut her off. “Your friends saw you leaving that evening with Luna, so they might think that you have shunned them.” Celestia told her still socially inexperienced student.

“Shunned? Why would they think that?” Twilight asked her sun goddess and mentor.

“Well, try to look at it from their perspective my sweet Twilight Sparkle. You came together to the party and then left off with a princess and they haven’t heard a word from you ever since. What would you think if any of your friends did something like that, in particularly when you all had planned to spend Christmas Eve together?”

“Oh…” Was all Twilight said, she could see where Celestia was going with this, her friends might think that she would rather be with Luna than with them and perhaps they even thought that Twilight didn’t want to see them anymore now that she had friends in ‘higher places’.

“You should travel back to Ponyville this evening and greet them and spend New Year’s Eve with all of them.” Celestia told her with a soft smile. “Perhaps you should consider taking Luna along with you, so you can introduce her to your friends, hopefully if they get to learn to know each other, they will also be much more acceptable of your newfound relationship if you do so, I’m sure of it.”

Twilight thought the idea through, it seemed smart enough to do so, but she still felt a lack of courage to face them. But as many thoughts ran around her brain and collided with one and another Celestia suddenly spoke again, breaking Twilights thought pattern.

“Twilight, tell me how you feel about the relationship you now share with my sister, I’ve been dying to know all about it!” Celestia exclaimed. She held a hoof to her mouth, that had come out a little more happy joy joy fangirl like than she had really wanted it to, perhaps she was a little more eager about her sister getting a marefriend than she had previously thought.

Twilight began to flush and started to smile shyly at what Celestia asked of her, but nonetheless she would try her best to answer. “As much joy as I feel being with Luna…” She paused for a moment frowning a bit and noticed Celestia’s face turn into one of concern. “I also feel an almost equal amount of fear of being with her, I’m terrible afraid.” Twilight told her.

“Afraid?” Celestia asked with surprise in her voice, and here she had thought that whatever was going on between the goddess of the night and her student was nothing but good times, so if Twilight really had been nervous this whole time she was quite talented at keeping it hidden from her surroundings. But right now Twilight acutely seemed pretty distressed, almost as if self-doubt were eating her up from the inside. Celestia frowned at this she didn’t hope that her words now had made Twilight unsure of her relationship with Luna. Celestia bit her bottom lip in bitterness, not too long ago she would have wanted nothing less than Twilight and Luna to see that this wasn’t ‘love’ and breakup so they instead could go and date some colts, she felt stupid, judgmental and short-sighted, she felt as if she was some sort of anti-Amor/Cupid for ever having thoughts like that and now she would make up for it by being super supportive and becoming their guardian angel.

“I’m afraid that I’ve forced myself onto Luna and that her feelings for me might not be the same as mine.” Twilight looked to the floor as she continued to talk. “I mean, I’ve just gave her something that she probably never felt before, not that I have felt something like this either but I’m unsure if her feelings for me are truly the same or that she is just really happy that someone has accepted her like I have.” She trailed off, not really certain how to describe her feelings.

Celestia wasn’t sure if she should smile or giggle at this, this was truly Twilight’s ‘first love’ and thoughts like these were perfectly normal for mares and colts alike. As clever as Twilight is she probably didn’t even for a moment consider that Luna might feel exactly the same towards Twilight as Twilight feel towards her.

The solar princess wasn’t really too sure if what she was about to say should just be left unsaid but she felt really horrible about her earlier thoughts so she had to come to terms with Twilight and her little sister. “As ashamed I feel about saying this, a few days ago I would probably have been pretty happy hearing these words but now I…” Celestia came to a short hold as she noticed how Twilight’s expression had turned from one of confusion and fear into one that looked like she was disgusted by Celestia’s short comings. Celestia’s heart broke a little by the sight, but she had to finish what she had started or else Twilight may just come to hate her instead and that was something the celestial princess simply couldn’t live with. “I’m sorry Twilight, please forgive me for my ignorant thoughts.” Celestia told her student as she lowered her head in shame; she was caught by surprise when she suddenly found the lavender mare around her neck, nuzzling her bottom cheek.

“I’m so happy that you approve of us even though the very idea had shaken you to the core of your being.” Twilight told her beloved mentor, just for a tiny moment she had felt anger towards the alicorn but she knew that Celestia always meant well, so she would always forgive her!

Celestia smiled and a small tear ran from her left eye as she felt a brick fell from her heart. After they had shared their embrace Twilight got back to the white marble floor before Celestia continued. “I don’t think you should worry too much about that my sweet. I’ve haven’t seen Luna so joyful since she was just a small filly.” She told her student getting back to the real topic at hoof. “My advice to you Twilight would be that you should have a talk with Luna about it, she is after all the one that knows her own feelings best, but I’ll say this much: she and I have a special connection to each other, both being alicorns and blood related sisters and I can say with a 99 percent chance of truth that in her heart she does not think of you as a hindrance in any way, there definitely is a flame in there just for you.” She ensured her little faithful student. “You’re both walking in unknown territory, but if you explore it together I’m sure you’ll overcome any obstacle that may rise in your way.”

“Thank you Celestia.” Twilight told her happily, she felt really good about herself now. “You’ll have to excuse me, I need to find Luna and tell her I’m going to Ponyville to get my friends back!” She told her mentor with a soft honest smile.

“Of course Twilight, I understand. I’ll see you again in the new year, take care my faithful student and be safe.”

But before Twilight got to make her getaway, Celestia gave her a light peck on her cheek. Twilight was startled, never in her life had Celestia ever kissed her on the cheek, in a matter of fact she had never kissed her anywhere! Twilight wasn’t really sure what to say, but she felt very special! Celestia giggled softly and reminded her that she was going somewhere, which made Twilight leave quickly, heading towards the lunar bedchamber.

Twilight Sparkle made her way through the castle and now stood outside the door to Luna’s bedchamber; she greeted the two batpony guards Luna had outside her chamber before she knocked softly on the door and awaited permission from inside to enter. She heard Luna’s soft voice from behind the door asking who it was.

“It’s Twilight.” Twilight told the wooden door that was the only thing that kept the two apart for the moment. A few seconds went by before the door opened and Luna stuck out her head with a greeting smile on her face.

“Miss Sparkle, you do know that you can just enter without asking for permission.” Luna told her lover with kind words and a small giggle, finding Twilight a bit silly at times.

“I know,” Twilight replied. “But I don’t feel too good about doing it after all I’m only a guest here.”

“Aw… you sweet little thing, so modest!” The lunar goddess teased her. “Come in, come in!” She moved to the side so Twilight could get past her, checking out her rump as she went by. “My, my….” Was all Twilight heard from behind her before Luna closed the door, leaving them alone in her quarters.

Now they lay in Luna’s humongous bed cuddling with each other. Twilight had no idea how Luna could sleep comfortably in such a big bed, if she had such a big bed and slept alone in it she would feel even more lonely at night than she already felt, she was happy that Spike was sleeping in her room as well, it took away some of her loneliness, but with Luna by her side she never felt alone.

“What did my sister want from you?” Luna asked her lover curiously.

“She asked me about us.” Twilight simply told her.

“Oh...” Was all of a reply Twilight got at first. “I had been wondering a little if she wouldn’t say a thing at all.” She told her. “I thought she would have some sort of meltdown.” She teased Twilight with a giggle.

“Well I guess you could say that.” They both giggled softly.

Twilight laid her head at Luna’s chest listening to her soft heart beat. “Do you think they hate me now because I’m with another mare?” She unexpectedly asked, catching Luna a little off-guard.

Luna was a little unsure what to say, she was pretty sure that the lavender mare was referring to her friends in Ponyville. “Well, I don’t really know your friends my sweet Twilight, I’ve only met some of them very briefly but no, I do not believe so. They already accepted you as their friend back then and you’re still the same pony now that you were several days ago, correct?”

“Yes, but-“

“No ‘buts’.” Luna cut her off. Twilight couldn’t help herself but to roll her eyes at what Luna had just said, it hadn’t been even been half an hour since Celestia had said exactly the same thing. “I know you feel a bit embarrassed about this whole thing, but keeping yourself distant from your friends is not the answer, and I know that you know this better than I.” She told her bedmate. “Perhaps it would be wise of you to go greet them this New Year’s Eve? Isn’t it that time of the year where friends get together and enjoy the last holiday of the year, talking about all the things they have learned and witnessed together, both good and bad?”

Celestia’s prized student felt all fuzzy inside, it was nice to know that both of the celestial sisters cared so much for her and it was reassuring that they both seem to think of the same solution to Twilight’s problem at hoof. “Celestia said the same thing.” Twilight told Luna, while still listening to her heart, burrowing her head into Luna’s dark blue coat. “But I would feel better if you would come with me.” She said with a low voice as if her request was the most embarrassing one could ask of.

“I’m sorry my love but I couldn’t quite hear what you said.” Luna teased her poor marefriend.

“You meanie.” Was all she got as a reply from the mare on her chest which made her laugh softly.

“I would be delighted to join you and your friends for this last day of the year.” She told Twilight as she caressed her lover’s back. “So when are we leaving?”

Twilight looked thoughtful for a moment. “Soon I guess, I mean it does take a while to get there by chariot.”

“Or…” Luna said with a sly smile. “We could cuddle some more and then I could teleport us there just in time?”

“Oh…” Twilight said with a wry smile. “I like idea way better!”

-

Later that day all of Twilight’s friends had gathered at the square of Ponyville just as they had planned, but like they had assumed Twilight was nowhere to be seen.

“I guess Twilight really has abandoned us.” Applejack said to the other mares with a frown.

“Maybe she was just a little late?” Fluttershy suggested.

“Now what would make you say that sugarcube?” Applejack asked curiously.

“Well, she just came out of nowhere.” Fluttershy replied as she pointed forward, all the others looked at where she was pointing and true enough there stood Twilight and somepony else but none of them beside Fluttershy noticed anypony else than Twilight.

“Well, hello there sugarcube. Good to see that you still could find the time for us simple pony flock.” Applejack told Twilight sarcastically.

“Yeah, now that you’re with your little Miss Moonie you don’t need us anymore?!” Pinkie Pie yelled angrily and clearly at the point of breaking into a cry.

“Yeah! You’re the worst, miss goody two-shoes!” Rainbow Dash huffed at her, probably not even sure of what she was trying to get at.

“It isn’t like that!” Twilight yelled, her eyes starting to water at her friends scorning words. “I was just really scared that you guys wouldn’t like me anymore…”

“Why Twilight! Now you’re just downright insulting us!“ Rarity told her harshly. “You are our friend and we would never judge you just because you’re a hopeless little dreary.” Rarity finished with a soft smile and teary eyes.

Luna didn’t say a word, it was quite obvious to her that none of them had noticed her or just didn’t care at the moment, but what happened next was one of the cutest things she had ever seen. All of the six mares were more or less crying and ran for each other like some overdramatic love scene and then they were embracing each other letting out sobs. They all apologized to each other, her friends for saying such rude things and Twilight for letting her friends out in the cold in fear of rejection.

“Sorry that I bailed out on you guys on Christmas Eve.” Twilight sobbed.

“Don’t beat yourself up there sugarcube.” Applejack told Twilight as the group hug came to a steady end. “We don’t hate you for that we were just a little surprised that’s all.”

“So how was it spending Xmas with your little princess?” Dash asked with a lustful voice and with a wink, earning a blush from both Twilight and Luna which they all still seemed to either have forgotten about or not noticed.

“I never knew cuddling would feel that good! I’ve read about it in some of my books but the words used to describe it didn’t come anywhere close! It’s like you get hooked on some sort of drug that your body can’t live without!” Twilight replied a little more openly than she would have had thought she ever would. Luna bushed even deeper at this, had she too forgotten that she was right next to her?!

“Cuddling? Oh, my naive little Twilight still so young and fragile.” Dash told her as she put one of her pegasus wing around Twilight. “You do know when lovers get together they usually embark on something a little more… uhm… ‘private’ than mere cuddling.” She said quite forwardly.

But before Twilight could respond; Luna cut in. “Oh, my! Look at the time! We might miss the fireworks!” Luna lied, trying to distract them from the topic at hoof and also feeling a little out of place about how at least one of Twilight’s friends instantly thought that they had ventured into such sexual acts as their first thought.

“Oh my gosh! Already?!” Pinkie Pie yelled in panic and vanished into thin air. The others ran off as well, but not before telling Twilight that they would meet up again at the small hill overlooking Ponyville.

Twilight turned to face Luna. “It’s not that late yet.” She told her.

“Well I guess they needed a head start.” Luna said teasingly.

“Oh you…” Twilight said with a smirk and gave Luna a light peck on the cheek. “You’re such a naughty, naughty goddess.”

-

A few hours later Twilight, Luna and all of her friends were sitting on the soft cool grass toasting and drinking on a small hill with a great view over Ponyville and the big beautiful night sky, not a single cloud could be found and all of the stars shined so brightly, all while waiting as midnight approached so that the true party could begin, as Pinkie Pie had put it.

Luna snuck up to Twilight handing her a drink with her magic, Twilight tore her eyes from Luna’s skies and smiled at her appreciatively. Twilight looked back towards the night sky once more. “Such a beautiful night we’re having tonight.” She told her marefriend.

“Only the best of nights for the most special of events and only for the most stunning pony in all of Equestria to behold.” She told her lavender lover as she sat down next to her, taking a short sip from her own drink.

“You should become a poet.” Twilight teased Luna who in turn giggled softly.

A still breeze flew by and Luna noticed Twilight shiver from the cold and without a moment’s thought she wrapped one of her wings around Twilight’s form and dragged her into her lap, where she then wrapped her other wing around her trapping Twilight within her lap inside of her wings.

Twilight blushed at the sudden show of affection but she couldn’t help nuzzle Luna under her chin, she felt quite embarrassed by the position she found herself in, it was as if she was a little foal that a mother would hold to shield her from all the bad things they world could throw at her child, taking all the pain but letting none of it get to her little star. And then she could have sworn she heard an ‘aww’ in the background, which only made her feel even more embarrassed but she couldn’t deny that this was the best feeling she had ever felt!

She heard a loud bang followed by cheers, she opened her eyes to see that the fireworks had started, which means it must be midnight now! She looked at the stars and saw a magnificent display of stars and explosions mixed together in a stunning beauty.

“Happy New Year’s Eve Twilight Sparkle.”

“Happy New Year’s Eve Luna.” Twilight replied as she kissed the mare of the moon, a deep and passionate kiss, being the first kiss of a new year, they both could only wonder what magical things they would experience together in the coming year.

THE END!

My thoughts on deletion of this story

Hello,

Sorry about this but from experience I know that people don't read my blog so this is the best way to reach those who have/had interest in this story.

I deleted a story the other day about Flutteryshy having to go to the doctor where she got diagnosed with HIV, a lot of people seemed to dislike simply because I gave Flutteryshy HIV. Originally the story was based on an interview I did ages ago with a woman who had gotten infected with HIV (which was why it was so modern with blood tests, the internet, dating sites and stuff like that, which was another thing that some people didn't seem to like about it) and my story was pretty much a re-telling oh her story with my own twist to it (and quite a few people liked the twist). However, I ended up doing something with the story that I told myself never to do! I changed elements to aplease my audience, which ended up with making a story that I already to begin with didn't feel like was mine but after those changes it just became worse and it felt even less like it was a story of my creation. Therefore I choice to delete it, both because it was the worst rated story I had (about 50% lieks and 50% dislikes) but also because I had grown to dislike it.

What does that have to do with this story? Well, I never intended to make a second chapter and I really dislike it and I will be deleting it soon (so you can get a change to download it if you like it before I remove it), I feel like I did the same with this story by adding a second chapter like how I heavily edited my other story with Fluttershy getting HIV that I just didn't feel any joy in writing it and not it's just an eyesore to me :/
However, I'm considering deleting the entire story and not just the second chapter, though for a completely different reason.

WHY?!?!? Okay... I'll try to keep it short but it's a bit of a long story. I wrote this story BEFORE the Hearth's Warming Eve episode, so at the time no one knew what Faust was going to do with a holiday related episode. And because of that I wrote this as a Christmas story, which at the time I was rather ignorant of Christmas... I live in Denmark and we celebrate something called Jul, which I at the time thought to be Christmas, so I got confused when people started to talk about Jesus and shit in the comment section because I've never associated Jul/Christmas with Jesus Christ "and why is that?" you might say. Oh, boy, here we go...

LECTURE TIME!!!

The celebration that a lof of people know as Christimas/Xmas has nothing to do with the birth of Jesus Christ and the religion of Christianity. Christimas is 'stolen' by Christanity from a Pagen tradition called Jul/Yule, when Constantine froced everyone in the mostly Pagen Roman Empire to convert to Christianity and thus Christianity had to incorporate the various Pagan tradtions into Christianity.

I don't hope this will start a flame war with Christians now... anyway!

So yes, I wrote it when I was ignorant of what Christmas really was VS what Jul is (I just wanted to make a holiday story with happy thoughts that should bring joy to people (though I mostly wrote it because I wanted Twilight and Luna to have an awkward kiss under a mistletoe, did they even have those in the Hearth's Warming Eve episode?) without making it into some religious stuff that I don't want to support). Back in the day when I wrote this I simply thought that Christmas was the same as Jul and even though we celebrate it in the exact same way with the tree, the gifts, the big dinner etc. We don't really do it for the same reasons and therefore I feel that this story is fueling an agenda that I simply cannot support as I'm an anti-theist and I find religions to be probably the most despeakable thing mankind has ever invented.
Not to mention that I don't believe the Jesus of the Bible has ever existed, there are too many figures that Jesus has been borrowing from to make him believable not to mention that none of the great writers of his time never spoke a word about it... it was only 50-100 years after his death that people begin to write stuff about him, stuff that had supposedly gone from mouth to mouth and thus not reliable... anyway, I'm getting totally off topic here! Sorry >_>

Therefore I'm left with two chocies:
1. Delete the entire story.
2. Re-write the whole thing into a Hearth's Warming Eve special (and never speak of the second chapter ever again) and either replace this or upload it as a new story (which will probably get less views as this story already has quite a few views).

I can imagine that people would perfer the second option and I could probably do that, but I've so many other stories I much rather write in my head and I still got 3 unfinished stories that I'll probably either re-write or delete and re-post when I've rewritten them from scrap (I haven't really made my mind on that yet). I guess the only thing that really holds me back is that this story is the most read story that I've ever written... it isn't the one that has the most followers (maybe because it's ended?), that achievement goes to 'The Demon Goddess' which has been onhold for more than a year, so you can kinda see why I might not was to waste time on 'fixing' this story rather than

Regardless, what do you guys think? Do you even care? Should I just delete it and maybe re-post a new version when I feel like writing one (if ever)? Or just delete it and put the entire thing behind me and focus on the stuff I really want to write? Or maybe someone would be willing to edit it for me?

Thanks for reading!
-with love from an agnostic <3

PS. I'm not sure if people are aware, but I only write Twilight x Luna ship fics with the occasionally Nightmare Moon x Celestia and in some future plans as a side-ship for my one of main-ship (TwiLuna) stories, I might be tossing in some VinylTavia, LyraBon and RanbowPie. So it any of those ships might be of your liking, I would suggest you watch/follow me, I know I've been quite for a while due to university, but I feel like a part of me died when I stopped writing these stories and I want to get back into the game!

PSS. Again, sorry for post this here rather than on a blog post, but I just know from experience that people are WAY more likely to reply here than on my blog... you've forced my hand you CIS scum! J/K
