Just a taste of what's to come

Chapter 8(sneak peak)

Finding himself with a pony lying on top of his chest Johann was at a loss for words as he tried to inspect who it was that snuck into his house and into his room lying down on his chest.

Careful not to wake up the sleeping pony Johann craned his neck up trying to get a better look. As he made this motion the small bundle started to stir. In another moment something soft and feathery slapped against his face ‘Wings?’. Carefully moving his head to the left Johann saw a Rainbow mane that was attached to the blue wings. ‘Dash?’

Rainbow Dash gently stirred in her sleep spreading her wings in different directions until finally folded to her sides. Once her wings had stop moving she began to nuzzles against Johann chest and pulling the rest of her limbs to her chest with a content smile on her face.

As all this happens Johann face burned a bright red as Dash's action were both rather embarrassing and adorable to see.’ she's almost like a cat in a way’ he thought as he watch dash curl up with her tail wrap around the front of her legs.

Laying his head back Johann tired to think of a way to get out of this without a red face of embarrassment. ‘well I at least know what Luna meant by waking a friend.’ letting out a sigh of defeat he rested his head down on the pillow once more. Until a thought came poking at the back of his mind. ‘wait didn't Luna also say something about receiving a letter? But who would bring the letter?’

Talking a moment to think Johann tried to make sense of how the letter would arrive and by which means. ‘well it's from the Princess of this country so it would have to be by somepony of equal worth. ‘ As Johann mind slowly beat away the drowsiness that was sleep away as his mind started to fire up. ‘But the only pony I can think of that could do that would be Twili~.....’

Johann eyes widen to the sizes of dinner plates as he looked out the window. Even though the blinds were closed he could barely make out the sun slowly rising in the horizon. ‘Oh My Gami-kai. The only one who fits that bill is Twilight. And if Dash here’ Johann quickly looked down at the sleeping pegasus on his chest ‘is any indication that pony don't bother knocking to be let in, then she’ll come trotting in here and see this!’

Feeling a few droplets of sweat slide down his forehead the memory of his first night spent in the castle of friendship flashes in Johann mind. ‘Oh no’ Quickly looking down again Johann began to weigh his options. ‘Okay option one wake Dash up and experience a few moments of embarrassment. And option two do nothing and let Twilight walk in and see this, and if when the other found out what happened like last then then it would be the gossip of the town……….yeah option one sounds better’

Slowly he began to try and awaken the sleeping pony on his chest ”Dash” he whispered softly “Dash wake up” he carefully placed his hand on her to stir her from her sleep only to have the cyan pony grab it and nuzzles into it ‘Okay 1 that's adorable, and 2 Damn it!’ He tried to pull his hand back only for Dash to squeeze tighter.

‘Great so not only do I not know when Twilight might show up,but now I have this to deal with.’
Johann could see the sun rising higher and higher on the horizon as time goes on. ‘There got to be a way to know how close Twilight is. If I can figure that out then I can think of a way to get Dash off me. But how?..........duh ki energy’

Closing his eyes and letting the world fade away Johann began to calm his mind. Soon he could see the outline of all the living things around him including Rainbow Dash, her ki energy was a similar color to her coat as was all the ponies Johann had met before. ‘Now then which way was Twilight’s castle again?’ turning his head to the right he could sense a powerful amount of ki energy ‘ ah there she is now I just need to focus and…”

Soon he begun to focus intently on Twilight's energy to the point where the ki formed her out line. Twilight's energy showed that she was moving a great deal back and forth in what he presumed to be her room. ‘She must have just gotten the letter. And judging by the distance between our homes I'd say I got a good ten minutes to wake Dash up’

With his other hand he slowly began to gently tap Rainbow Dash cheek” Hey wake up Dash, Twilight is on her way soon” he continued to lightly tap her cheek while trying to free his other.

“mmhehsbkf” Dash muttered at she bat Johann hand away freeing his other one. But slowly her eyes began to open. “mmmm wha?”

“Good morning sleeping beauty, mind telling me why your in not bed?” He asked drumming his finger on his chest waiting for an answer.

Rainbow Dash face burned a bright red as she quickly sat herself up right while her wing extend with a loud *pomf* “Well you see I used so much of my strength yesterday during our race that I was so beat that I wouldn't be able to fly to my house.”

Brow raises Johann crossed his arms as he listened as she continued. “So I thought that maybe I could crash at your place and get some z's, so I came inside and tried to sleep on your couch but it wasn't that comfortable.”

Nodding his head Johann leaned in.”So you decide to sleep on my bed instead?”

Dash's eyes darted back and forth”Well yeah. I mean we pegasie prefer to sleep on comfy things like cloudes, and well….”

“You decided to take a nape on my chest?” He asked with a smug face.

“Well it's not my fault your chest is really comfy.” she admitted with a blush as she poked his chest.

Johann only smiles as he raises his hands to pet the cyan pony head making her blush harder.”Well I can't be mad with a compliment like that now can I?”

As they share this tender moment the sound of a quill scratching on paper could be heard. Both Johann and Dash head snap to the door to see Twilight peeking thru a door and she looked down at the paper she was writing on.

Soon she looked up to see that they were looking at her.”Oh sorry don't mind me I'll just” she lightly closed the door shut.

Both Dash and Johann face were burning as red as magma as they scrambled out of the bed to catch up to Twilight.
