A Falling Star in Ponyville

A few months after he crashed in Ponyville, Falling Star, with the help of Big Macintosh, Caramel, and a few other stallions, managed to get his house built and was able to move in. It was a simple yet elegant house, as should be expected when Rarity was involved in the design making. As he wandered through his new home, he thought about all the stuff that had happened in the past few months and it made him smile. Almost all of his friends were in a relationship of some kind. Twilight was getting married to Big Macintosh, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were in a budding relationship together, and Applejack had married Caramel. Seeing them all so happy made him happy. He, on the other hoof, was still trying to work up enough nerve to ask out his crush, Rarity.
"Today's the day I'm supposed to meet the Mayor." He said aloud to himself as a reminder. Thankfully, his friends hadn't told anypony about his being an alicorn. He was going to tell everypony in Ponyville himself today at the meeting.

As the time for the meeting drew closer, Star began to walk down to the meeting place. He took his time, knowing the Mayor would be giving a speech before allowing him to speak. As he walked, he saw his friends waiting for him and waved. A smile spread across all of their faces as they ran over to meet him.
"You feelin' alright, Sugarcube?" asked Applejack as they got closer.
"Yeah, I'm just a little nervous, AJ." He replied.
"Darling, you simply must stop worrying about your big reveal. All that worry will cause you to get Wrinkles before to long." Said Rarity.
Star looked at Rarity and immediately stopped worrying. "You're right, Rarity. I just need to calm down." He said with genuine relief in his voice. "Thanks."
The group continued walking to the meeting with Star leading the way.

Star and his friends arrvied at the meeting just in time. The Mayor had just finished her speech and was waiting to introduce Star to everypony. Star flew up onto the stage as his friends took their places in the crowd. His nerves started coming back, but then he noticed one of the mares wasn't in the crowd. As soon as he saw that, he felt a nudge on his side, and he looked over to see Rarity by his side. This both surprised him and calmed him down. They smiled at each other for a moment. Then, Star gave his speech.

*

"Thank you all for coming today. I don't know half of you half as well as I would like. I do know a few of you though. To the rest of you, my name is Falling Star. To the eye, I am a Pegasus. But, looks can be deceiving. I am not a Pegasus...." He paused to cast the spell that would allow everypony to see his horn. He heard a massive collection of gasps as the crowd saw what he truely was. "I am an Alicorn, like Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. As an Alicorn, I am related to the princesses and am the prince of equestria. I don't want to be treated any differently than I was before you knew, though. I am still the same stallion as before. I want to earn your respect and trust, not demand it. I may be royalty, but I'm not afraid to do hard work or get dirty. I just thought you should all know the truth about what I am. If you hate me, I understand. But, I have grown attached to Ponyville and I plan on staying here for a long time. Thank you all again for listening."

*

As Star began turning to walk off the stage, he heard someone start stomping their hooves. Soon, the whole crowd was stomping and applauding for Star. He looked back at the crowd and tears came to his eyes. He had feared that all the other ponies in Ponyville would hate him for hiding what he truely was, but it seems like his revelation just got them to like him and accept him. As he stood there, smiling with tears of joy running down his muzzle, his friends rushed up on the stage and gave him a big group hug. After everyone had calmed down, the crowd dispersed.

After the meeting and the revelation, Star and his friends had a little party at the library. Spike had returned for a couple of days from his journey across Equestria, just in time too.
"Spike, take a letter." Star said. Spike got out a scroll and a pencil and waited to write.
"Dear Celestia and Luna, My name is Falling Star and I'm a new friend of your student, Twilight, and her friends. I have learned that while you may be nervous about something, if you let your friends help, you can overcome any fear. I was afraid of telling erverypony in Ponyville about what I truely am. But, my friends have helped me find my courage. Now I have something else to tell the two of you. I am your younger Brother and am an Alicorn to boot. I will be residing in Ponyville for a long time and have no plans of going away. Hope to meet you both soon. Love, Your baby brother"

*

Not two minutes after Spike sent the letter, there was a response. It simply read, "on our way". Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Twilight went over and opened the door, revealing the two princesses. As the others bowed to Celestia and Luna, Star stood straight and proud, finally allowing his regallity show, as he presented himself to the two. The three of them stood still for a few moments. Then, Celestia and Luna ran over to him and hugged Star. Tears streaked down all three alicorns muzzles as they hugged and everypony in the room started tearing up. "Why didn't you come to Canterlot, little brother?" The Princesses asked.
"I crash landed here in Ponyville and became friends with everypony here, so I decided to stay." Star replied.

*

After explianing everything that had happened in the past few months and sharing many hugs, the princesses departed, but not before placing a crown on Falling Stars head.
"What is this for?" he asked the two older alicorns.
"To officially mark you as the Prince of Equestria." they replied as they left.
Soon the party ended. As Star and Rarity walked down the empty road together, he tapped her hoof with his own and said "Rarity".

*

Rarity turned toward Falling Star, with a puzzled look on her face. Star usually didn't talk to her unless the others were around. She had begun to think that the Alicorn stallion didn't really like her. Though it was a nice change, she still didn't expect him to do this. "What's on your mind, Star?" she asked.
"You are, Rarity." Star replied.
"What do you mean, Darling?" She asked, even though she was afraid of what his answer would be. She even turned as though preparing to run away.
"What I'm trying to say is this," He said as he got in front of her and looked into her eyes "Rarity, I-I love you. It's only now, after all this time that I finally was able to work up enough courage to tell you. I love you and I was wondering if you would do me the great honor of attending the next Grand Galloping Gala with me?"

*

As soon as he said all of this, he felt as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders. He only hoped he didn't make a fool of himself by being so blunt. Rarity just stared at him for a few moments. Then she leaned forward and kissed him on the lips. It was so nice that Star didn't want it to end. But then, Rarity pulled away and said "I have loved you from the moment I first laid eyes on you. You are a true gentleman, and you are so modest for royalty. You are a hard worker and you are so kind to everypony you meet. I would love to go to the Gala with you. But first, we need to get some rest and go on a couple of dates." Falling Star smiled and nodded.
