The Proposal

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

A day or two later, Luna and I were celebrating Thanksgiving. Luna said she had wanted to spend Thanksgiving on Earth, and I figured, why argue to your alicorn girlfriend that you've knocked up? My mother had recently had a surgery, and she was still recovering, so she wasn't up for making Thanksgiving dinner. Because of that, we had decided to have dinner at my grandmother's house. We let my mother tell the whole story as she knew it, from what I said about the first time I fell through the portal, to having dinner with Luna, to adventuring across Equestria to get what we needed for me to travel between our worlds, (including the awkward nights with Fluttershy and Dash,) to me finally getting back home.

If it weren't for Luna standing there as living, breathing proof, they would have called me, my brother, my sister, and my mother all insane. When my mother finished, I let the cat out of the bag. As I embraced Luna in a tight hug, I told them, stating, "Everybody, Luna and I have an announcement: Luna is... Pregnant!"

At first, they all stared in disbelief. Finally, my brother broke the silence, "Wow, way to go, General! You dog!" After that, the awkward silence was over, and the loud awkward commotion began. From being congratulated by my cousins and siblings, to being scolded slightly by my aunts, uncles, grandmother and mother. Despite any of their comments, they were all very supportive of us, and said they would help us in any way they could. I was glad for that, and I continued to hold Luna.

When we all made our plates, I made sure to show Luna which things were meat and which were vegetables, as she was a vegetarian (she is a pony, afterall!). Even despite that, I grabbed extra turkey and deviled eggs, and when I began eating, I playfully fed Luna a bit, and I even convinced her to eat a little turkey and a deviled egg. She didn't feel very good about eating meat, but she seemed to like the savory flavor. Everybody chuckled as we embraced and ate together.

A few hours later, Luna and I were just sitting there together, enjoying eachother's company, when my mother came up and asked us something, "General, Luna, I'm so happy for you two, but I need to know something: What are you going to do to take care of your child?" Luna and I went from smiling and laughing jovially to wide-eyed, worried teens, not sure how to react.

"Well," I started, still quite unsure. "I'm not one-hundred percent sure, but we'll figure something out, don't you worry about that... Don't... Don't you worry..." I trailed off, trying to think of what we were going to do. I hadn't thought of this, so I needed to. The whole time, Luna didn't ask me if anything was wrong, she didn't break my concentration, she just embraced me, seeming to hope to discover my thoughts just by touching me. "Don't you worry, Luna..." I muttered under my breath, so quiet, it was like I had only thought it. "Don't you worry..."

Finally, it was time to go, so I told everybody good-bye, and I slashed open a dimensional rift. After that, I took Luna by the hand, and we entered the glowing violet portal, directing timespace to send us to her bed chambers. Luna and I decided that we would spend the night together, and the next day, I would return home.

.....

It was the next day that the beginning of the rest of our lives began. I had to go to work, but Luna was still asleep, so I left her a note before I went. You know, don't want her to get worried or anything.

Once I got to work, I saw that I didn't have much work to do. All the apples had been harvested, so I couldn't help with that. The animals were all sound asleep, so I didn't have to worry about them for that moment. Since I had nothing to do, I decided to just hang out in the clouds and wait for something to happen.

I was just meditating in the clouds, waiting for something to happen, when suddenly, I started thinking of Luna. I thought about what I would do to support her and our little filly or colt. I just... I wasn't sure how we would do this! But, even so, I would do something about it... I would take care of my new family!

Then, the idea came.

I decided there was only one way I could do this. I would marry Luna.

.....

Applejack sent me off early, as she realized there was nothing I needed to help with that day. So, I gathered up all 73 bits I had, and bought the biggest diamond ring I could. It was a 12 karat cobalt diamond horn-ring meant for a unicorn or alicorn,and on the main face of the 24 facet gem, there was a special rune carved in. It was a sea pony magical symbol that meant Love.

I just knew she would love it! I couldn't wait to kneel down and slide it over her beautiful ebony-violet horn! I gathered up the ring and box and cradled it tightly in my legs as I flew to the Everfree Forest. 'Luna,' I said by using magic to speak. 'Meet with me in our spot in the Everfree Forest. I've got a surprise for you!'

.....

"General?" Luna mumbled, walking slowly through the forest as I spied on her. I wanted to surprise her, so I hid from her until she got right where I wanted her. "Surprise!" I yelled, flying out of the woods towards her, legs outstretched to give her a large hug. I tackled her to the ground by doing this, and, chuckling with her as we fell to the ground, I brought her lips towards mine and gave her a great big kiss. I let my tongue writhe in against hers in the passionate expression of our love.

Finally, we broke the kiss and I helped her stand up. After that, I told her what I wanted. "Luna," I started, pulling out the ring. "I know we're young, but, I love you, and I just have to ask you..." I kneeled down and opened the box. "Luna, my love... will you marry me?" She just looked at me in delight until she finally nodded quickly, an enormous grin on her face.
"Oh, General," She began, excited. "Yes, yes, a thousand times YES! Oh, yes, my love, I will marry you!" And with that, I slid the ring over her horn, and we began to kiss once more.
