Load Full StoryNext ChapterCelestia and Twilight shared a cup of tea and a piece of cake in the gardens of Canterlot Castle.
«So Twilight how is life in Ponyville ?» Princess Celestia asked, sipping her tea.
«Good, very good» Twilight replied, minding a little elsewhere.
«I can tell you are hiding something from me dearest Twilight, you haven't even touched your piece of cake. What's wrong ?» Celestia asked.
«It's just that I'm thinking about my friends and have some personal worries that I don't want to publicize.»
Twilight rubbing the tip of her hoof round the table.
«About your breakup with Flash Sentry ?» Celestia replied mockingly.
Twilight jerked her head up
«Who told you about this ?!» Twilight asked sharply.
Celestia laughs behind her hoof to see the face that her former pupil made
«I read it in the newspaper» she replied lightly, wagging her hoof nonchalantly in the air
«WHAT ?!» Twilight yelled
Twilight began to basket and hyper ventilated several hairs of Twilight's mane began to rebel.
The Sun Princess grabbed Twilight's hoof
«Just kidding Twilight, calm down I got a letter from Cadance telling me that you and him are separated»
Twilight calmed down the joke having gone badly but she didn't blame the princess, she looked at her cup of tea and replied with a sob.
«He cheated on me Princess»
«Twilight ... I ...» Celestia stammered.
Celestia understood why Twilight had come, the young princess continued
«He told me that as I didn't want to sleep with him, he had found a less frigid mare»
Twilight started to cry as she spoke her words.
«I see the kind ...» Celestia said in disgust, taking a sip of tea.
«And he...»
But she didn't finish her sentence as she collapsed on the table with her eyes pressed to her arms.
«He ... * sobs * He didn't want to understand that I am a virgin and that ... * sobs * ... and that I wanted us to take our time» dropped the little purple alicone between sobs.
Celestia went to take her in her arms, her wings recreated on her for comfort, her young proteger had had her first heartbreak after 6 months of dating this stallion. Her friends had supported her but she couldn’t take her sorrow away, she needed the help of someone more "Mature".
On the advice of her friend Fluttershy
«She's lived over 1,000 years, if she's never had heartache it is because she is made of stone. You should write her one asking her if you could spend a few days at the castle and from there you will talk to her about everything and she will know how to help you.»
Following his words, she hurried back to the castle to write a letter to the princess.
«Dear Princess Celestia,
I am writing to you because I would like to come and spend a day at the castle with you.
Your friend and former student
Princess Twilight Sparkle »
She sent her over to Spike, still happy to help his dear "little mama". The letter reached the princess, who was reading quietly in her quarters. She read the parchment and noticed some wet stain on the parchment. She understood that something was wrong and answered him.
«My dearest Twilight,
I would be more than happy if you come to see me, come when you want.
Your friend Princess Celestia »
The next day, Twilight took the train to Canterlot. Celestia had picked her up at the station in person, barely getting off the train she noticed Twilight's maurose demeanor. But now that she knew the why and how she would do her best to help him through this difficult ordeal knowing only too well the pain of losing the affection of another pony.
«There Twilight, let it all out, don't hold back. It's going to help you» Celestia whispered in his ear, patting Twilight lightly on the back.
After a big burst of tears, Twilight calmed down and stepped out of her friend and mentor's embrace with her back to her wiping away her tears as best she could.
«I ... * sniffle * I want ... I didn't mean to crack» she said.
«I understand Twilight, don't worry» his older brother replied.
«Thanks Princess, I needed to ... * sniff * ... let her out» Twilight finished, her voice shaking.
«I will always be there to help you my dearest student»
Celestia walked over to the little alicorn lifted her chin, she stared straight into his big wet eyes
«Its going better ?»
Twilight just nodded. Celestia, placed a hoof on either side of her face and tugged lightly to draw a grotesque smile.
«Come on give me a beautiful Twilight smile»
Twilight forced herself to smile, Celestia shook her head
«A little effort, I want to see a beautiful smile on your face Twily»
Twilight was surprised to find her little nickname, usually only her brother calling her like that. She took a deep breath and gave him her best smile.
«There it is, don't forget a smile chases the clouds away» said Princess Celestia affectionately.
«Is that from Pinkie Pie ?» Twilight asked.
«Yes» Celestia replied.
The two girls laughed and continued their little chat. Twilight even taking a bite of her cake.
«You have to change your mind Twilight, find yourself a project that will make you forget this idiot who does not know what luck he wasted. Can be a common project with your friends».
Twilight thought for a moment.
«I know she gets together every week like a club to do something but I don't know what, when I wanted to ask them they changed the subject» she explained.
Celestia raised an eyebrow.
«Ah yes ? Its does not resemble the attitude of your friends, however ...»
«I ended up asking them each separately ... She told me everything: " that she wanted to invite me but that since I don't share the same tastes as her, and not to ask them anymore because her made me uncomfortable talking about it in public "» continued Twilight
Celestia nodded
«Well, Twilight, this 'private club' seems to be close to their hearts.»
«Do you think it would be a good first project to find out what goes on during her mysterious 'meeting' ?» Twilight asked calmly.
«I don't know Twilight, if she didn't invite you to do so there must be a good reason.» replied Princess Celestia, scratching the back of her neck visibly uncomfortable.
«Oh ... did you think it was because I didn't hang out with them as much as I did before that she went to the club without me ? That they no longer want to be my friends ?» Twilight's eyes fill with tears.
«Not at all. You do different activities each on your side, but it doesn't prevent you from being friends» Celestia sighed
«Yes, but usually we have no secrets from each other» Twilight replied.
«All have Twilight secrets, even I have some» Celestia said.
«Yes, but shared secrets bring them closer, don't they ?» Twilight asked.
«Yes, but some often shameful secret can ruin the best of friendship ... And I'm afraid that if you dig too deep you will discover a secret that should remain so» Celestia sighed.
«But if I discover their secret, it will bring us closer because we will be bound by that secret !» Twilight exclaimed.
«Yes or as I told you, it could harm your friendship, it all depends on what secret and your reaction» retorted Celestia.
«Nothing can hurt our friendship, because if my five friends share the same secret, her must not be as ashamed as her.» Twilight replied.
«It's fair, yeah» Celestia admitted.
«So that's settled tomorrow when I get back to Ponyville and ask them about their club and what a secret passion she shares. Then I would find all the books that talk about it to be unbeatable and enjoy it with my best friends !» Twilight said happily.
«* Sigh * Seen from this angle, and seeing how much you care about you is going. But be careful sometimes even good attention can do a lot of harm Twilight»
«Yes and I will tell you about it on my friendship report ! I'm running to pack my bags tomorrow, a great day of friendship awaits us !»
Then Twilight ran to her private quarters to get ready to leave, leaving the princess alone in the garden.
«I just hope my dear Twilight that you are not going to do more harm than good in this story»
