Every Dark Night Turns Into Day

Sunset

I smirked as I glanced over at Derpy snoring softly in our bed as I stretched before picking my controller and shifting my focus back to my video game as I finally freaking loaded in.

“Finally I’m in,” I muttered to myself.

“That’s what he said,” Lyra answered immediately and I jumped slightly. I had completely forgot I was in an Xbox party for a second there.

“That was good,” I chuckled as Derpy moved in her sleep. “Is Lightning going to be joining us?”

“Uhh she should be yeah. I invited her to the game and party,” Lyra replied as my character ran in circles around hers. “The fuck are you doing?”

“Running in circles duh.”

“What’s up bitches!?” Lightning shouted as I heard Lyra throw something on her bed. I cringed slightly at her loud voice.

“Jesus Lightning!” Lyra groaned. “A little quieter next time please. Almost blew my eardrums.”

“Sorry I’ll try harder next time.”

“To blow her eardrums or be quiet?” I questioned nervously.

“Yes,” Lightning responded with a smirk in her voice.

“So what exactly are we doing?” I asked as I punched Lyra with a snicker.

“Hey!” Lyra snapped as she punched me back. “We’re robbing the casino because I need money and shit like that. If Vinyl was on, we could have her help us but she’s busy with homework at the moment.”

“Alright,” I said as we finished our fist fight. “How long have you been playing this game exactly Lyra?”

“Four years. I’m level four thirty two after all. Can’t get that level unless you’ve been playing for a few years,” Lyra replied as she broke a car window with her elbow. “Get in bitches. We’re going shopping!”

“That’s a Bon Bon type of joke right there,” I announced after we finished laughing. “We have to be quiet though. Derpy is currently asleep right next to me and I don’t wanna wake her. She can be surprisingly grumpy in the morning and when woken up during her nap.”

“I can believe it,” Lyra said as I sat in the car next to her while pointing a gun at her. “If she doesn’t have her coffee or morning muffin, she gets cranky.”

I glanced over at Derpy before shrugging and leaning back slightly to rest against my pillow. The door to my room opened but I ignored it to focus on my game.

“Hey Sunset?” Diamond tapped my shoulder as I jumped slightly. I took my headset off as I vaguely made out Lyra and Lightning have a fake argument and shouting at each other with laughing.

“What’s up sis?” I asked with a smirk. Diamond sighed and sat down, smirking slightly at Derpy.

“Can I ask you a personal question?”

“Yeah sure go for it.”

“How did you you know you liked Derpy?” Diamond asked as I gave her a confused look.

“Uh I’m not sure to be honest. I guess it just sorta happened. She was super nice to begin with, was my first true friend over here other than Mom. And well here we are. She told me she liked me, I realized I liked her too and yeah. Pretty simple story. Why?” I gave her a mischievous smirk and winked. “Is this about Apple Bloom?”

“You know about that?” Diamond demanded with a blush.

“Kid we all know about that,” Lyra’s voice came from my headset followed by Lightning snickering.

“I caught you kissing her in the supply closet at school remember?” I asked as my grin grew wider. “You two finally get together?”

“No,” Diamond admitted as she shook her head and I frowned slightly. “I’m not knowledgeable in that front and you’re the only person I know that I live with who’s dating a female other than Lyra, Bon Bon, Vinyl and Octavia so-”

“And you came to me for advice,” I finished her sentence as she nodded. “Well be honest I guess. Once sec.” I shook Derpy a bit as she groaned and opened her eyes. “Hey wake up. Diamond wants to ask you a question.”

“Fine but make it fast. I’m tired,” Derpy grumbled as she focused on Diamond.

“When did you know you liked Sunset?” Diamond questioned as Derpys eyes lit up.

“I’ve liked her since freshman year,” Derpy admitted as we gave her confused looks. I didn’t know that. I thought it was a recent thing. “As for why, she has a super strong personality. Plus she’s kind and super empathic. And she doesn’t judge me for my eye, she loves me for it.”

“Damn right,” I agreed as I kissed her cheek.

“You were all she talked about freshman year,” Lyra said. “Well until we found out how rude you were then she kinda quit bringing you up but we knew she still liked you. We used to watch you on Twitch until once again, we found out about your bad side. Don’t know why you quit streaming. You could have made money off that.”

“Didn’t make me enough as I would a night out on the town did,” I admitted sheepishly. “Plus I got kicked out of the library often for being too loud during it.”

“That could be highly misinterpreted,” Lightning snickered as I rolled my eyes before focusing on Diamond. “So what exactly are you asking? Not that I don’t love spending time with you but I’m kinda confused about this.”

“Well should I go for it?” Diamond asked hesitantly.

“Well do you like her?” Lyra’s voice floated from the headset on my legs. “I can’t see you so speak, don’t nod.”

“Well yeah. She’s strong and kind. She and Sweetie Belle were the first two of the three to give me another chance along with my sis,” Diamond answered eagerly. “Scootaloo wasn’t a huge fan of me at first and now she’s my sister. It was weird at first but I’m used to it now.”

“Go for her,” I said reassuringly. “We all know she likes you back. You two aren’t the greatest at hiding your feelings. Hell, me and Derpy will help you. Maybe get Bon Bon involved.”

“Thanks sis!” Diamond said as she hugged us and I grunted in surprise.

“You’re welcome,” I smiled faintly as I patted her head.

“You know Bon Bon is Applejacks cousin right?” Derpy asked suddenly.

“Yeah?” I said.

“And Octavia is related to Pinkie we found out recently right?”

“Right.”

“So Bon Bon is related to Pinkie and Octavia,” Derpy announced. “If Diamond Tiara marries Apple Bloom, you and the others will be related! We should honestly investigate to see who else is related in the group.”

“Maybe,” I shrugged. “I’m down.”

“Hey!” Diamond shouted with a blush. “It’s way too soon to even discuss me and Bloomy getting married.”

“Aww you even have pet names,” Lyra chuckled. “Adorable.”

Diamonds cheeks turned even more red as she groaned and stormed out of the room. Me and Derpy made eye contact as we all four burst out laughing.
