My Little Pony: Friendship Was Magic

Chapter 10: The Royal Family's Visit

''TWILIGHT!'' the five friends all cried out in unison, storming through the door in a hurry.

''Girls?'' Twilight turned around from the old princesses of Equestria and faced her friends.

Applejack gasped for air. ''Oh, you can't believe how long it took us to come all the way from Ponyville to here.''

''With what all the train traffic and all,'' Rarity added as she stepped forth.

''Oh!'' Pinkie piped. ''This is so exciting to announce!''

''It's awesome!'' Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

''Girls!'' Twilight chuckled. ''Calm down!''

''Yes,'' Princess Luna agreed. ''What is with all the excitement?''

''Well,'' Rainbow Dash started to say but got cut off as Pinkie Pie interrupted her.

''Well,'' Pinkie Pie interrupted. ''You know how Applejack and I got these super cool broaches and capes with awesome new powers then Fluttershy also got it and then Rarity and Rainbow Dash told us that they got them too!''

''Wow,'' Spike murmured.

''This is wonderful,'' Princess Celestia marvelled. ''But why?''

Pinkie shrugged. ''I don't know.''

''So,'' Princess Luna said as she stepped forth. ''I guess it is safe to say you aren't having nightmares anymore?''

''Luna!'' Princess Celestia turned to her sister. ''I thought you were guarding them!''

''Uh,'' she tilted her head in shame. ''I was, but I was just too busy!''

''Busy doing what?'' she raised an eyebrow. ''Busy eating ice-cream?'' She huffed. ''Luna, what have I told you that there is more important stuff than stuffing your face in an ice-cream tub!''

Luna scoffed. ''What about you and your cake addiction?''

She chuckled. ''Okay, that just went too far.''

Luna raised an eyebrow.

''Wait,'' Rainbow Dash paused. ''You eat ice-cream and don't even bother to look at ponies' dreams to check if they aren't having any nightmares?'' She huffed and flew in their faces. ''What type of princess are you?''

Applejack pulled her tail. ''Rainbow Dash! What a thing to say! I am sure they are busy with whatever fun things they are doing to not...''

She interrupted. ''Busy eating ice-cream.''

The cowgirl raised an eyebrow at her.

''But,'' Rarity trotted forward. ''We aren't having nightmares anymore, well...I'm not.''

''Yeah!'' Pinkie piped. ''I barely have nightmares because my mind is always on delicious creamy frosting.''

She licked her face in delight as she thought about that word. Simultaneously, Discord materialized in front of her and conjured up a five layer cake with frosting for her. Pinkie Pie looked up at the draconequus in stargaze and took a huge bite into the cake.

''Oh!'' Fluttershy interrupted the moment as something occurred to her. ''What about Discord? Surely you shouldn't be careless enough to not care about our dear friend, Discord, here.''

Discord raised an eyebrow on what she was talking about but also put a paw to his chest in flattery.

''That is right,'' Princess Celestia approached him. ''Say Discord, are you somewhat having nightmares too?''

The draconequus bit his lip. He did not know what to say. He didn't want ponies thinking he is a softball more than the great and fierce Discord.

Fortunately, his dear friend, Fluttershy, or shall I say mare friend now, kindly approached the princess. She put a hoof on his shoulder.

''Actually,'' she said. ''He is.''

Princess Celestia opened her mouth to speak but no words came out as her eyes met four ponies standing in the entrance door. The orange pegasus guard with wild blue mane was standing beside a pink alicorn and a white unicorn with a pink alicorn foal in their hooves.

They chuckled in delight.

''Hello everypony,'' Princess Cadence greeted.

''Cadence!'' Twilight smiled and ran up to her sister-in-law.

They both chanted and did their traditional dance.

''Sunshine, sunshine,'' they sung. ''Ladybugs awake! Clap your hooves and do a little shake!''

They both laughed. Applejack took the foal from Shining Armour's hooves so that he could greet his little sister with a hug.

''Twily!'' he gave her a giant hug. ''Oh, I missed you!''

The foal giggled in Applejack's hooves as Pinkie Pie tickled her belly.

''Aw,'' Twilight hugged him back and looked at the foal. ''She has gotten so big!''

''Yeah,'' her sister-in-law conceded. ''I think it is because natural alicorn foals grow a lot than normal foals.''

''Anyways,'' Twilight said with a smile, ''what are you doing here?''

''Well,'' Cadence responded, ''we came for a visit and see how our favourite sister was doing.''

The princess of love bowed. ''Your majesty.''

Twilight glanced at her friends and they all bowed towards her as well.

''Your majesty,'' Twilight repeated.

Cadence gave a slight chuckle. ''I'm kidding, Twilight. What have I told you? We are sisters-in-law. We don't need to be so formal.''

The orange pegasus guard with wild blue mane was standing in the entrance still with the luggage's.

''Should I take these luggage's to their rooms, princess?'' he asked.

''Oh,'' Twilight felt guilty as she looked at the load of luggage's in the wagon. She didn't want him to get tired out, especially for how much he has done for her. ''No need, Flash. My friends and I will take care of that.''

So humble. Flash Sentry thought to himself as he walked out of the room with heart shapes hovering above his helmet.

Cadence caught a slight blush in her sister-in-law's cheek and smirked.

''Are you somewhat in love with him, Twilight?'' she asked with a smirk upon her face.

''What?'' she panicked. ''No! Why would you think that?''

The Princess of Love chuckled. ''Take it from somepony who knows a lot about love.''

Pinkie Pie bounced on over to them. ''Yeah! She is the Princess of Love after all! And besides, we all have special someponies and you don't!''

Applejack coughed. ''Don't forget about me.''

''And me,'' Spike added.

''Aw,'' Pinkie Pie sighed. ''I ship you two! How about you two can just date already?''

The cowgirl and the baby dragon glanced at each other and slid away awkwardly.

''What are you talking about?'' Applejack questioned.

''Instead of you liking Rainbow Dash,'' Pinkie explained, ''why not like Spike instead? It will save you all the trouble. Rarity puts Spike down and Rainbow Dash puts you down so it makes sense. Plus, I ship you guys already.''

Applejack blushed and looked at Rainbow Dash who raised an eyebrow.

''Pinkie Pie!'' the cowgirl exclaimed. ''You Pinkie promised not to tell anypony!''

Pinkie Pie sighed. ''Hasn't anypony heard of hooves crossed?''

The cowgirl gasped. ''You lied? But I thought we were friends and friends utter promises!''

She bit her lip. ''Well, friends aren't suppose to fall in love with ponies their own friend likes as well!''

Applejack widened her mouth. ''I...I'm sorry, Pinkie.''

''No,'' she uttered. ''I'm sorry. I shouldn't have blurted all that out. I guess you don't want to be my friend anymore.''

''What?'' Applejack was taken aback by this. ''What are you talking about? Of course I still want to be your friend! Just next time don't. break. it.''

Pinkie Pie chuckled and let out a small smile for her friend. Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash was scratching her head in confusion.

''What about we all hit the hay? We are plumed tuckered right now,'' Princess Luna announced.

''I agree,'' Princess Celestia nodded. ''After you.''

The five protectors of Equestria trotted out the throne room first and then followed by Spike, the old princess of Equestria and Shining Armour with Flurry Heart in his hooves.

Princess Cadence was caught up looking at a strain glass window of herself with a crystal heart necklace. Twilight saw this and approached her sister.

''Aren't you coming too, Cadence?'' she asked.

Twilight looked at where she was staring at and sighed.

''You are such a great princess, Cadence,'' she complimented. ''I wish I could be like you, I feel so lost.''

Her sister turned to her and smiled. ''I didn't always feel so confident.''

On the outskirts of a modest town,
I was a pegasus infant, alone.
Two earth ponies then took me in,
And they raised me as their own.
They said I was special, and unique.
For I had so much love to share,
That when my cutiemark appeared,
I knew it was my place to care.

She turned to Twilight. ''My compassion made everypony around me fill with warmth and love and everything was wonderful, but it didn't last long.''

For there was a pony, Prismia, an enchantress in our town,
And her heart was filled with jealousy,
For the love I spread around,
She wanted all that love to herself,
So she placed upon us a curse,
Her necklace drained all the love from their hearts,
And made everypony feel worse,
I couldn't let her win,
So I stood up against her spell,
And used the love in me to heal,
It proved to be stronger than her curse,
And she finally learned to love,

The next thing I knew, I was in a strange place,
I was lost, scared, and confused.
The princess found me and she explained,
That all my dreams were about to come true,
I was then given a beautiful horn,
And a title: Princess Amore,
She took me in to be her niece,
And said I would rule someday.

She smiled. ''When I felt lost and confused about who I was supposed to be, Celestia gave me the crystal heart spell to guide me and now I pass that onto you, Twilight, so you too can learn who you are meant to be.''

Standing behind the door was a tall white alicorn princess listening to her story. She smiled and was glad she was there to help her out through those times. She also thought about how it was similar to Omsonia. She shook it off and trotted towards her bedroom.

What is she meant to do? She thought to herself as she laid on her bed. She can't take away Twilight's leadership or her princess title! What if she ends up like Omsonia? They are both alike! But Celestia trusted Twilight...although, she trusted Omsonia as well. Should she talk to her? No, she shouldn't! Maybe she should just look out for the future.

In the morning, everypony was in the royal dining hall to eat their splendid breakfast. They had pancakes which Princess Celestia had made for them. For the first time, Princess Luna tried her sisters pancakes and loved it.

''Wow,'' she marvelled. ''This is amazing, Tia!''

Her sister smiled at her compliment. ''So how is everypony doing on this beautiful morning?''

''Still a bit tired,'' Rainbow Dash yawned and stared at the pink pony munching on her plate of pancakes. ''Did you really had to put a horn inside my ears for me to wake up? You know you could of tried doing something else like...oh, I don't know! Tap on me!''

Pinkie Pie's face perked up from her plate of pancakes and giggled. ''Where is the fun in that?''

The pegasus groaned and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

''So Twilight,'' Princess Cadence turned to her sister. ''Are you having any plans for today?''

Twilight thought about it but groaned. ''No, I have got a lot of royal duties to take care of now since Princesses Celestia and Luna have retired.''

''Twilight,'' Cadence laid a hoof on her shoulder. ''You have your friends to help you and all of this work is not healthy for you. How about you take a break now that we are all here together.''

''I can't take a break!'' she exclaimed throughout the whole room. She realised that was loud and excused herself by clearing her throat. ''I meant I can't, Cadence.''

''Nonsense,'' Princess Luna huffed. ''Tia and I took breaks all the time when we ruled Equestria.''

''All the time?'' Twilight raised an eyebrow.

Luna bit her lip. ''Well, no...but sometimes we did.''

There was silence across the room and Pinkie Pie watched how boring the moment was so she thought about something to enlighten the mood up. Romance. She thought to herself.

She turned to her violet alicorn friend and smirked.

''So Twilight,'' the pink pony batted her eyelashes at her friend. ''Are you thinking about having dates with that Flash Sentry?''

Twilight blushed in embarrassment. She felt uncomfortable.

''What?'' she said. ''No! Why are you bringing that up?''

Pinkie Pie explained, ''because I always see the way you look at him when you always bump into him in the human world and in this world too.''

Twilight's cheeks were getting hotter and redder by every second as Pinkie Pie went on and on about her love life, but fortunately for her, they were all met by some pony standing in the doorway. As she looked at who it was, her eyes widened. What a coincidence! We just talking about you! Twilight could hear her pink friend say that aloud to him. She bit her lip. Out of all the guards that could of came in, it had to be this one!

''Twilight?'' Rarity laid a hoof on her shoulder. ''Are you alright?''

The princess shook her head out of her thoughts and looked at her white unicorn friend. She smiled in response.

''Yes,'' she replied. ''Of course, Rarity. Why wouldn't I be?''

Rainbow Dash poked Applejack in the side and bit her lip while tilting her head towards the door.

''Somepony needs ya right now,'' the cowgirl interjected.

Twilight looked towards the door and blushed.

''Oh,'' she jumped out of her seat. ''Right!''

She trotted towards the door to meet the guard.

''Princess,'' he rubbed the back of his neck. ''There has been a bit of a...''

He was suddenly interrupted as Princess Celestia approached him.

''Let me take care of this,'' she said. ''Twilight needs her rest from these royal duties.''

''Of course,'' he bowed. ''There has been an accident in the royal archives and we tried to...''

He was cut off once again by her.

''I will take care of this,'' she trotted outside the dining room. Her head popped from the side of the door again. ''Oh and Cadence, make sure Twilight and Flash Sentry get what they want.''

Princess Cadence smirked and nodded. Princess Celestia gave a devious smile in response.

''Um,'' Flash Sentry said. ''You need to have all the help you can get.''

''Oh please,'' she groaned. ''I went through so much worse than this. How bad can it be to resolve...?''

Flash interrupted. ''You might want to change your mind, your highness.''

She sighed. ''Fine, uh...Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and Spike, you are coming with me!''

Pinkie Pie bounced up and down, whereas Rainbow Dash grumbled.

''No fair,'' she said. ''I wanted to look at the romantic scene.''

Applejack gave a smirk to her.

''I mean I am not sappy or anything!'' She threw her hooves in the air.

Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Spike and Princess Celestia trotted outside the dining room. Flash Sentry was about to leave as well when Rarity stepped on his tail. She wagged her hoof at him.

''You are not going anywhere,'' she declared with a sly grin.

At the Canterlot archives, the whole place was a mess. There was books everywhere on the floor. Half of them was burnt and half of them was ripped. Not to mention the big crash on the wall.

''How did this happen?'' Princess Celestia inquired.

''Well,'' a guard tried to explain. ''This happened a few weeks ago, according to Raven Inkwell.''

They saw a white mare with brown hair and glasses looking through a magnifying glass at one of the books.

''Wait,'' Celestia paused. ''Is the box still secure for Omsonia to not get out?''

The guard bit his lip in response. ''You might want to look at this.''

''Uh,'' Rainbow Dash interfered. ''What box?''

They all followed the guard upstairs and entered into a secret room where the secret prison box was kept. It was burnt. The princess widened her eyes in shock. It was open as well so meaning Omsonia would have gotten out. She was right.

''No,'' she uttered. ''That box would have been secure for her to not get out. How can this be?''

''Well,'' the guard interfered. ''It has been over a thousand years, your highness.''

''Okay,'' Spike finally said. ''Will somepony please tell us who this Omsonia pony is?''

Princess Celestia sighed in response and sat down on the floor. She patted on the space next to her and they all sat beside her, including the guard.

''It was a long time ago,'' she started, ''Omsonia was the same age as you all at the time...''

In the dining room, Cadence was giving love advice to her sister-in-law. Whereas, Rarity, Applejack and Fluttershy was with Flash Sentry outside the dining room.

The princess of love was wearing glasses and levitating a checklist in front of her with her magic.

''Okay, Twilight,'' she said. ''What have you learnt so far about love?''

Twilight sighed. ''That love is just a waste of time.''

''Uh-huh,'' she wrote it down on her checklist and looked towards her sister. ''And isn't that what you said about friendship before giving it a try?''

She groaned. ''Cadence, that is different. Love and friendship are a whole different thing! And I'm not the princess of love like you so I don't need a boyfriend or a husband.''

Cadence chuckled.

''What's so funny?'' Twilight raised an eyebrow.

''Oh, Twilight. Friendship is a type of love so it is the same thing! Also, you don't need to be the princess of love to have one. I mean, take your friends for example.''

''Well, yeah, but...''

''But what?'' she hissed.

''I'm the princess of friendship and of course, my friends are apart of me but still!''

''Twilight,'' she shook her head. ''Twilight, there is still a lot you need to learn.''

Music started playing in the background out of no where and Twilight raised an eyebrow at Cadence.

''What are you-''

She was suddenly cut off when Cadence pulled her aside.

There is a lot of different things you still need to learn,
But trust me when I say love can be fun,
Remember when you said friendship was a waste of time?
But then you took the time to chime.

Twilight raised an eyebrow and didn't realise that she also joined along.

Seriously, what are you talking about?
He just wants my clout.

You know that you love him,
He knows he loves you,
So keep it together and swim!
Oh, come on. Don't be under the blue!
Learn to love! Fly like a dove!

Cadence, this won't work.
So get rid of that smirk.

You just need to learn. to. loooveee!

''And you are saying she was stuck in that box for over three thousand years?'' Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

The princess nodded her head.

''That is,'' said Rainbow Dash, curling her lips into a smirk, ''awesome!''

''How is that awesome?'' Princess Celestia raised an eyebrow. ''I literally imprisoned my own pupil!''

''Yeah but,'' Rainbow Dash continued, ''she deserves it for wrecking Equestria.''

Pinkie Pie nudged her in the side. Princess Celestia took a deep breath.

''If you were in my position,'' she said, ''you would regret the choice you have just made.''

Rainbow Dash shrunk back down to the ground.

''This hasn't been my first time imprisoning somepony I loved,'' she asked, ''you all know the story of Nightmare Moon, correct?''

''Obviously!'' Rainbow Dash flipped. ''We literally defeated her and unexpectedly melted her frozen heart again.''

''Hey!'' Pinkie Pie called. ''Where is Spike?''

''Okay,'' Rarity scattered around the hallways. ''Flash Sentry, have you got what it takes to ask the Princess of Equestria out?''

''I guess so,'' he replied. ''But why me? I am just a regular old guard who-''

He was interrupted when Rarity zoomed into his face.

''Because you two have had chemistry going on between each other for years!'' she sighed flirtingly. ''Besides, it is romantic to see a guard and a princess together. Take Princess Cadence and Shining Armour for example!''

Fluttershy interfered. ''Who knows? You two might have a natural made alicorn baby together just like Flurry Heart. I have finally discovered how that had happened.''

''How?'' Applejack asked, raising an eyebrow.

''Princess Cadence was a pegasus, right? And Shining Armour is a unicorn. Cadence turned into an alicorn so they didn't know what to make the baby so had to combine it. If Cadence was a unicorn then the baby would be a unicorn. You get what I mean? I think I get what Princess Celestia meant by, ''the birth of an alicorn is something Equestria has never seen,' because they never had special someponies like Cadence. Uh, no offence to them, I mean.''

''Wow,'' Applejack marvelled. ''Sugar, Twilight must be so proud of you for using your research skills.''

Fluttershy blushed and thought back to when Twilight had said that when she had discovered the mystical mask was Mage Meadowbrook.

''Anyways,'' Rarity said, ''we need to create you a suit if you are ever going to ask the princess out!''

''But I...'' he started to say but the unicorn cut him off again.

''Makeover!'' she exclaimed, pulling out a rail with suits out of nowhere.

Meanwhile, somewhere during the story Princess Celestia told to Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie, Spike secretly crept outside when he had heard enough. He walked throughout the corridors to think.

''Why does that mare sound like Twilight?'' he wondered. ''They were both Princess Celestia's faithful students and isolated themselves away with books. She sent them both away to make five friends! They both got leadership! Wait...''

He stopped in his tracks and saw a portrait of three beautiful ponies. One of them was an earth pony, the other was a pegasus and the one in the middle was a unicorn. Wait, could they be the Goddesses his friends were talking about?

He shook his head out of his trance.

''Why did Princess Celestia give Twilight leadership and wings when all of that happened with the Omsonia pony?'' he wondered aloud. ''Probably because she trusted Twilight more than Omsonia.''

He continued to walk back and forth and rubbed his chin.

''If I state the truth,'' he said, ''I love Twilight, she is my sister and without her, I wouldn't even be hatched! More than that, I wouldn't even exist with somepony as amazing as her! But did Celestia seriously had to give her leadership that shouldn't exist in friendship groups? And I don't think Twilight likes the idea either, judging by how she reacts when we bring leadership up.''

He sighed. ''She was better as a unicorn. She was also smart and powerful but now that she is an alicorn, Starlight is now the new Twilight.'' He chuckled at that statement.

His ears perked as he heard talking. He slowly slid through the wall and followed the direction of the voices. He was soon met by a white unicorn, yellow pegasus and an orange pegasus.

The yellow pegasus was just standing there, whereas the white unicorn was looking through a collection of suits. What is that doing here in the Canterlot corridors? The orange pegasus was wearing a green suit which didn't quite exactly match him.

''Hold still, Flash Sentry,'' Rarity said as she strapped on a belt on him. ''You want to look good for your future somepony, don't you?''

''Don't you think you might get the wrong idea out of Twilight?'' he asked.

''Darling,'' she shook her head. ''If I know my own best friend, I would know every single thing about her.''

''Hey, Rarity!'' Spike exclaimed as he trotted away from the corner.

''Literally,'' she blabbered on. ''She is our best friend and oh...hello, Spike. We know her love life, favourite book, colour, ice-cream...'' She finally properly realised the dragon standing there. ''Spike!''

He gently raised his claw to wave.

''What are you doing here with all this...?'' Spike started to say.

''Oh, this?'' Rarity spat. ''We are just hooking these two lovebirds together!''

He glanced at Flash and Twilight through the glass of the dining room door.

''And why ever not, Twilight?'' Princess Cadence asked.

''Cadence,'' she said. ''You know as well as I do that I can't have a coltfriend especially somepony who is a mortal. I am pretty sure you are a mortal so you don't have to worry about losing Shining Armour. But I, Princesses Celestia and Luna handed theirs to me meaning I would have to lose all my friends and...coltfriend.''

''Twilight,'' she said. ''Why would you even want to think about that? At least just enjoy life before you lose the ones you love until one day you find a pony to hand over your princess title and immortality, you can take down your life and join us.''

''What is the point?'' Twilight asked, throwing her hooves up in the air and scattering around the room. ''You know what they say, 'time flies!' And who is to say I have feelings for this colt? Yes, I was close friends with him in the other world and we nearly...kissed, but other than that I barely even know this colt!''

''Twilight,'' Cadence tried to calm her down and was shocked at her tone. ''What has gotten into you? We know you both...''

''Yes, you all know that he likes me but you know what you all don't know? I don't like him back!''

That had apparently echoed across the room and the three ponies and dragon had heard her from outside. Spike slapped his face, whereas Flash shrunk to the ground and had his heart shattered into a million of pieces. Rarity laid an assuring hoof on his shoulder.

''Flash,'' the white unicorn said. ''Are you okay?''

A tear dropped from the orange pegasus' eyes and trotted away from them with his head down in shame. I was stupid. He thought to himself. There is no way a princess would like another old guard.

''What has happened here?'' a tall white alicorn came by with two ponies as she saw the guard trotting away miserably.

Pinkie Pie gasped. ''There you are, Spike! We were looking everywhere for you!''

Spike chuckled. ''Sorry, I just needed some fresh air.''

''Fair enough,'' said Rainbow Dash. ''Although, can somepony please tell us what had just happened here?''

Fluttershy looked at Rarity and stepped forward to answer that question.

Meanwhile, inside the dining room, Twilight sat there in shame at what she had just said. Cadence had her hooves crossed against her chest and was shaking her head.

''Twilight,'' she said. ''Why would you say that? And out loud too. What if he had heard you?''

''Honestly,'' she replied. ''He wouldn't care at all because why would a mortal being like an immortal being?''

She shook her head. ''Is this what has led to? You worrying about immortality being a curse? Twilight, what have I told you that one day you will join us sometime too once you find somepony to hand over your immortality, just like Princess Celestia did.''

Twilight sighed. ''I am sorry. I was just worrying about losing my friends and I realised how I exploded my anger was totally unnecessary. Maybe I could have hurt him. I'll go talk to him if he had heard that.''

She started to trot towards the door when Cadence laid a hoof on her shoulder.

''Give him some time to settle what happened first.''

''Okay.''

''Dude,'' Lightning hissed. ''Why did you just storm inside in here? This isn't like you.''

Flash Sentry, who had his face on his pillow, mumbled, ''no reason, just please leave me alone.''

Lightning hopped off from his bed and trotted towards his friends to comfort him.

''Is anything wrong, Flash?'' he asked.

''Mmm,'' he groaned. ''You know when you said I have a crush on Princess Twilight Sparkle?''

Lightning nodded.

''Well,'' he said. ''Three of her friends were just making me look good so I could ask her out but we heard her say that she...she...'' His lips quivered in miser.

''Hush, bro. Stop stuttering,'' Lightning exclaimed. ''What did she say?''

He took a deep breath. ''She said she didn't like me.''

''Damn, bro. I'm so sorry,'' he put an assuring hoof on his back to pat it.

Outside of the door, a violet alicorn was overhearing their conversation inside the room. She felt sympathetic of what she said. He really did like her, but did she...? Of course she did! She was eager enough to knock on the door gently.

''Hello?'' she called. ''Flash? It's me, Twilight. May I come in?''

Flash Sentry's head perked up at the sound of the knock and looked towards his friend. Lightning smiled and flew over towards the door. He opened it to find a violet alicorn princess standing in front of him. He bowed for respect.

''No need for that, Lightning. I need to talk with Flash.''

''Of course, your highness.''

Lightning trotted outside so they could talk. He knew exactly what Twilight would want to talk about with him. It was pretty obvious. Anyways, Twilight trotted inside the room and saw an orange pegasus laying on his bed with his face flat on his pillow. She trotted towards his bed to approach him.

''Flash?'' she called.

Flash's head perked up and quickly stood up from his position.

''Your highness!''

''Flash,'' she said. ''I have told you not to call me that and we are friends. Well, I heard what you said to your friend.''

She turned away before he could see a blush on her face. Flash blushed too and looked down at his hooves shyly.

''I am sorry I said that,'' she apologised. ''I didn't mean it. I was just stressed about my immortality and stuff.'' She sighed. ''But I guess it was pretty obvious to everypony that I liked you back as well.''

His eyes widened in shock. Did she like him back or did she only say that just to pity him and make him feel better? Suddenly, he shook out of his thoughts as he was surprised by a kiss on the cheek. It really wasn't the first time.

His gaze was suddenly locked onto her beautiful purple eyes and held her by the waist to surprise her with a kiss on the lips. Twilight was shocked at first but started to enjoy it. They both relaxed their eyes and enjoy their first ever soft, but passionate kiss. Her lips tasted like vanilla and his lips tasted like blueberry.
