Sunny Flare and Midnight Sparkle have a sleepover.

Sunny Flare had gotten used to Midnight Sparkle's bizarre requests. Ever since the magic demon refused to leave her side, she'd find herself being requested to do odd stuff from the creature once in a while.

And given her nature, you'd expect all her requests to be utterly bonkers, right?

Well, this recent one was pretty odd, but not in the way you think....

This story is a sequel to Sunny at Midnight, but you don't need to read that story to get this one. I think.

Sleepover "Date"

Sunny Flare wasn't quite sure what to say right now.

For starters, she was currently on a date with Midnight Sparkle, and yes, she was very aware that this sentence alone demanded a lot of explanations.

She didn't have the time to explain, though, so long story short, Midnight separated from Twilight and fell in love with her. It didn't explain much, but it was as much as she could say.

Anyway, she and Midnight were currently on a date, in her room, right when the witching hour began: Sunny and Midnight sat on the former's bed, the latter moving up and down while flashing an excited expression.

All while Sunny simply wanted to go back to her pre-Midnight life.

"Midnight, please stop doing that," she requested calmly. "The bed's making weird noises."

"Oh, sorry, it's just that I've seen Twilight do this sometimes, and I've always wanted to try it out!" Midnight chirped, clasping her hands as she stopped. "Would you believe me if I told you I've never really felt a bed before?"

"You're barely weeks, probably months old," Sunny pointed out. "If anything, I'm surprised you're not going "Oooh!" or "Aaah!" at everything you look at."

"Well, I have to admit, I was kinda like that before I met you," Midnight giggled. "But that was then, and this is now! So, how should we go on this?"

Sunny nearly called out the magic demon. Did she seriously just set themselves up for a date without even knowing how dates went like?

But she had said so herself: Midnight had only come into existence relatively recently. Even if she was a being made of magic and with a curiosity and mind stronger than most people, she couldn't be expected to know about the normal human stuff.

So, okay, let's humor her for now.

"Well, a date is typically..."

Sunny quickly grew silent as she realized she was just as lost as to how dates went.

"Yeah?"

"Okay, so, dates are... like, romantic hanging... events... you get it so far?"

Midnight nodded slowly, then shook her head while chirping "nope" with a little smile.

"Okay, think of it like this: we're dating, right?"

"Yup!"

"And in order for any relationship to work, there needs to be effort made to maintain it: so, we can't just go on date after date for no reason."

Midnight tilted her head.

"Okay, we're not getting anywhere," Sunny rubbed her forehead. "Look, if this is supposed to be a date, then we need to do something to make it romantic. Especially since it's Relationship Day."

Midnight blinked twice. "What's Relationship Day?"

"It's a holiday celebrated here in Other-Questria, though with over a dozen different, less lame names," Sunny smiled. "It's a day centered around celebrating all sorts of relationships: friendships, companionships, romantic relationships."

Midnight frowned and pouted, startling Sunny.

"What's wrong?"

"Well, it's just," Midnight looked elsewhere, blushing slightly. "I've never really had anything like what you're saying before."

If there was a time for Sunny to ponder if she had gone insane, this was probably it. First she had a date with the living embodiment of Twilight Sparkle's magical potential, and now that same embodiment was blushing like an awkward high school girl...

Which, in hindsight, made perfect sense given she was made from Twilight, but it was still pretty crazy!

"Hey!"

Sunny flinched, finding Midnight pouting at her angrily.

"Oh, uh, sorry, I was daydreaming."

Midnight flinched and sharpened her look, as if something she said upset her.

"Sorry, wrong choice of words," she chuckled awkwardly. "B-But anyway, people do a lot of things on Relationship Day."

"Like?"

"Okay, um..." Sunny snapped her fingers. "Like for example, if you wanna be romantic, giving someone a bouquet of flowers, or gift them chocolate, or-"

"What's chocolate?"

Sunny now felt conflicted. She knew that as soon as she mentioned that sweet, Midnight would want to know more about it. She was always the curious one, but sadly, she couldn't just go downstairs and grab a chocolate bar to explain what it was.

After all, if you woke up early in the morning, the last thing you should eat is sweets.

"I'll tell you another time, okay?"

Midnight pouted and nodded. She was being surprisingly cooperative for a magical madwoman who nearly destroyed reality once.

"And while we're at it," Sunny sighed. "There's something I wanna ask you, Midnight."

The entity tilted her head. "What's that?"

Sunny twiddled her thumbs and took a deep breath before explaining:

"Well, ever since you first came into being, everybody was confused. It was so sudden, so unexpected, and ultimately, we were left with more questions than answers. And that's before taking into account you getting a crush on me, which is still the weirdest thing I've ever dealt with. But, well, what I'm trying to ask is..."

Sunny faced Midnight.

"Who... what are you, Midnight?"

Midnight lowered her eyelids, her expression gaining a sense of serenity as Sunny hastily added:

"And don't give me a vague answer like last time!"

"But... what else can I give you?"

Sunny flinched, leaning back as Midnight lowered her head and added:

"I haven't been around that long either. The only things I could feel when I was first created... was that I wanted to see the worlds beyond this one. To see the result of the multiverse... at the expense of everybody else."

Sunny gulped, rubbing her arm as she remembered the day Midnight was created. She certainly shook things up a bit.

"But now that I'm no longer stuck with Twilight... now that I'm free to be myself..."

Midnight hugged herself.

"I don't know what to answer."

Well, this took the turn for the existential.

"I'm sorry if my question brought back some bad memories," Sunny waved her hand. "Just, forget I asked, please."

Midnight looked at Sunny, and gained a tiny smile as she reached for and grabbed her cheeks, causing her to flush.

"M-Midnight, w-w-what are you doing?"

"Relax, I'm not going to hurt you," Midnight lowered her eyelids, a sultry expression forming on her face. "unless you want me to."

Sunny somehow turned a different shade of Blue than her usual color. Midnight quickly got the hint.

"Sorry, I was joking," Midnight laughed awkwardly. "I just wanted to try touching you for once."

Sunny blinked. "T-Touch me?"

"As a spirit, I can't really interact with objects. Sometimes there are exceptions, but I don't really know how that works," Midnight blushed. "Besides, I've always wanted to know how your skin feels like."

Midnight played with Sunny's cheeks, causing her to brush brightly as the entity giggled:

"It's really soft."

Then, she released her.

"Now's your turn. Touch me."

If Sunny wasn't so good at quickly getting hints, those words would've brought up a very different idea.

Regardless, she mentally prepared herself. She looked at her hands, then at Midnight, who was blushing while trying to hide her excitement. Sunny repeated this for a few times before she etched towards Midnight's face.

Once she was inches away from her cheeks, she hesitated, her hands shivering from the nerves... until she did it.

She placed her hands on them.

And unlike what she worried about, she was touching them. She could actually feel them.

And they were very soft, too.

"Midnight..." Sunny smiled. "I can touch you..."

Midnight smiled. "Yeah."

"I can touch you!"

"I know!"

Midnight and Sunny laughed as the latter kept rubbing the former's cheeks, taking a while to realize before she realized what she was doing.

"S-Sorry, I got carried away!" she stammered, pulling her hands back. "It's just that... I-I thought my hands would phase through."

"So did I," Midnight giggled. "But, you know? I'm very happy they didn't."

Sunny and Midnight blushed in unison, exchanging awkward looks... until the latter spoke:

"Still, I wonder..."

"Yeah, Midnight?"

"Why were your hands so sweaty?"

Turning red from embarrassment, Sunny grabbed and pinched Midnight's cheeks.

"Ow!"

Author's Note

Happy Hearts and Hooves Day! Let's celebrate with some random, awkward fluff between a Shadowbolt and Sci-Twi's formerly evil self!

Speaking seriously though, I was pondering whether to do SunnyNight or SugarSweet, the pairings of Sour Sweet and Sugarcoat.

The former sounded more bonkers, so I had to do it. XD

And... that's it, yeah.

Draxonos135, flying off.
