Prologue: The Start Of A Normal Day
It was Just another day for you. As you walked the halls and greeted the guards who always seemed surprised you even talked to them, you admired the stained glass windows and the ceiling with it's paintings. You quickly checked your watch and noticed what time it was.
"Shit, I'm gonna be late" you said to yourself as your walk increased to a quick trot. Thankfully you arrived with 2 minutes to spare. You really didn't want to miss breakfast with Celestia since she rarely invited you to eat with her. You pushed the door open with your hoof.
"Hello Gold, please take a seat." She appeared happy to see you even though you were used to her talking formally so her talking to you casually surprised you a bit.
"Um.. ok" you took a seat right across the table from her. As always she was eating pancakes, you always wondered why she came to love them. Maybe her father or mother made them for her was really the only logical answer.
"Celestia, is there any reason you invited me to breakfast?" You really did want to know if she was going to give you a TED Talk or just have a normal conversation with you.
"So I can't invite my favorite colt to breakfast without a reason?" You didn't know if she was being serious or joking. But with her being a princess she rarely joked so you took it as if she was being serious.
And hearing you get called her favorite colt made you blush a little. "N-no, that's not what I me-"
"I was joking" she said it with a small grin on her face telling you it was really just a joke.
"So Gold what would you like to eat?"
"Pancakes if you have any" you said with a grin because there was a stack of pancakes in the middle of the table.
"We've got plenty of pancakes." But plenty to her was most likely like enough for her, wow she really does love pancakes.
"I'll have 3 please" she starts lifting a plate over to you with her magic. As soon as she sets it down in front of you, you start eating normally which was a different story for Celestia who looked like a filly, digging her face into the pancakes.
"Wow these are really good, did you make them?"
"Yes Gold I made the pancakes" she said with a smile. You wondered why she didn't just ask the royal chefs to make them but you guessed she just wanted to make pancakes.
"How did you sleep Gold?" You wondered why she would ask such a question but you assumed it was just because she cared about you.
"Good, what about you Tia?"
"I slept fine Gold, just wish I had somepony to sleep with me." You knew where she was coming from especially since you also wished that you could be able to wake up with a beautiful mare right next to you.
"You'll find somepony one day Tia, just don't give up hope."
"I won't Gold just I don't know where to start"
You felt bad for her so you thought of something you could do to help. "How about I take you around town sometime to meet some of my friends and potentially find your special somepony?"
"Really, you would?" she no longer looked sad as a smile started growing on her face.
"I mean yeah, if you want" you said as she quickly trotted over to your side of the table.
"Thank You Gold..." she gave you a hug which made you blush bit. She never really hugged you often so you just enjoyed the moment. She walked back over to her side of the table. An awkward silence stirred for a bit before you decided to talk.
"Um.... so where's Luna?"
"She's asleep, watching over the night makes her really tired."
"you think she'll ever join us for breakfast?" You asked with a concerned look.
"Depends if she hasn't fallen asleep before breakfast, I'll ask her maybe next time she'll join us."
"I really hope she does."
You and Celestia finished up eating breakfast. You wished you would've eaten more but Celestia kinda ate every single pancake even going as far to taking one of yours. You took yours and Celestia's plate and set them on a tray that a waiter would pickup later.
"Gold can you order me some tea please?"
"Sure Tia" you quickly found a piece of paper and wrote down what she wanted and you also felt the need for tea so you got yourself one as well. You rolled up the piece of paper and used your magic to teleport it to the chef.
"So Tia what's on the agenda for today?" Nopony really knew what was on her schedule so you thought it was best to ask her yourself.
"Hmmm.... let me see" she unrolled a long strip of paper. "So here's the interesting ones. so at 12 there's a meeting with the mayor of Manehattn and there's another meeting with Princess Cadance , oh here's a nice one"
"What is it?" For her to say oh here's a nice one meant it probably was something nice. Mostly because she never really called anything on her agenda nice.
"At 7 we attend a performance of the Canterlot Royal Orchestra."
Right when she said orchestra, you knew you were going to attend attend "wait really?"
"Yes Gold they're preforming today at 7" a small giggle escaped her mouth when she saw how happy you were.
"Is Luna coming?"
"Why do you keep talking about Luna you don't like her do you?" she giggled again.
"No, I just don't want her to miss the performance, and I'm just concerned about her."
"I can see if she would like too attend if you want me to Gold but i can't promise that she'll come." It seems Celestia also wished her sister could attend.
"Thanks, I would hate for her to miss something like this." You were generally worried about Luna since you rarely saw her. And her missing a performance from an orchestra made you a bit sad since it was something very special.
"So I'm guessing you like listening to orchestral music?" She said with a smile
"Who told you?" you let out a small chuckle after you said that.
"Nopony, just figured since you like music so much that you would like going to see an orchestra."
She wasn't wrong because you really did love listening to orchestral music. It just amazed you how so many pony's all playing different instruments cloud create something so... beautiful.
Your tea's arrived and you thanked the waiter that brought them to you. "I see you also got yourself some tea."
You grinned a little "yeah I just couldn't resist." Generally, you didn't like tea that much but you figured this once it wouldn't hurt. "Tia when is your first meeting?"
"In an hour so that means we have plenty of time to talk." You could tell she was happy that you two could talk since she was smiling and looked happier than usual.
"Yeah, I enjoy talking to you even though you don't listen half the time." you started smiling at your joke.
"What do you mean I don't listen, I always listen." It seems she was a bit offended at the joke even though is was somewhat the truth.
"I'm messing with you Tia" you let out a quiet laugh.
The next hour was passed by, all you could remember was that you and Tia were drinking tea and talking about stuff except you couldn't remember what. Though it was most likely her talking about her daily life and things her and her sister did together when they were younger. "Looks like my meeting is coming up soon."
"Mind if I come Tia?"
"Not at all Gold." you walked with Tia to her first meeting starting the normal busy day you've always had since you lived in Canterlot.
