New Year's Eve
The next morning was the morning of New Year's Eve. I awoke early that morning and saw that Luna was still asleep. I giggled at the slight noises she made while she slept, and I kissed her on the cheek. "General..." She mumbled, eyes slowly opening. "Good morning, Moon Pie." I whispered, wrapping my arms around her. "Sleep well?"
"Very well," She whispered. " Especially now that I can sleep beside you again." She rested her head on my chest.
"Oh, you." I tightened my grip on her. "Luna, I've never met such a perfect person in all my life. You know how to flatter a man so well." I kissed her again and pierced her lips with my tongue. Our tongues wrestled eachother, our bodies copying the motion as we pushed eachother back and forth.
Finally, she broke the kiss. "You know," She said, resting her head against my chest again. "We will need to get our clothes on before someone comes in here. You know, so no one sees us... Nude, together..." I giggled at how she blushed at that. "Oh, you're so cute when you're embarrassed, Luna." I kissed her on the cheek, allowing my lips to linger on her flesh for several moments.
After several moments, I took my lips away from her and stood up. "Well," I continued. "Let's get dressed." We went on to dress eachother, me pulling her underwear up her legs, her buttoning my polo up on me. I handed her shirt over, and she pulled it on. "Alright, now let's get that skirt back on you." I said, lightly squeezing her shoulder. I picked up her skirt and began pulling it up around her legs. I noticed only then how soft the fabric was. "What is this made of?" I asked her.
"Oh, just normal silk. Nothing special." My eyes widened in surprise.
"Well, it's very soft. I see why you always seem so comfortable." I kissed her on the cheek one more time before pulling the skirt up. Standing up, I took Luna by the hand. "Let's get some breakfast." I said, staring into her eyes.
We went into the living room and saw that no one was there. She sat on the couch while I went into the fridge to see what there was to eat. I knew she would prefer not to eat meat, but after a month or so with her, I'd gotten her used to meat to a point that she didn't mind eating fish or fowl. "Hmm... Catfish, eggs, lettuce... Eh... I guess I could make something with that." I pulled out a pan and put the fish into it. I turned the flame on low and told Luna, "How would you like your eggs, Luna?" I asked her, taking some eggs out of the carton.
Smiling, she replied, "Poached, please." I nodded and continued to cook the fish a bit. I put a shallow pan on one of the other burners and proceeded to cook the eggs. About 10 minutes in, the fish was finished. I chopped up the fish and put some of it onto two plates, mixed in with lettuce. Finally, the eggs were finished and I was putting them onto the plates. I brought Luna her plate and a fork, and sat down beside her.
I was surprised by how she ate. I had never actually seen her eat as a human, and I was shocked at her gusto. She ate quickly and swallowed every bite after no more than 3 bites at most. "Wow, Luna," I said, eyes wide. "Why are you so hungry?" Luna looked at her plate, and her eyes widened as she blushed.
"Oh my," She exclaimed. "Excuse me, love. I am just so hungry, because... Well, I was so worried about your condition that I did not eat at all the past couple of days. I guess all the hunger just came up at once, and..." She looked down at her hands, appearing ashamed. "Ah, Luna, it's sweet that you were worried for me, but you shouldn't have endangered your own welfare!"
I put one hand on her shoulder, the other around her. "But," I continued, drawing her close. "If you're hungry, maybe my love can sate your ravenous appetite." I brought her lips to mine, and allowed my tongue to wander past her lips. She welcomed the familiar-yet-alien entity joyfully, placing her arms around me. After a long while, I broke the kiss. "I love you so much," I exclaimed, tightening my grip on her. "You're such a beautiful woman. I'm so lucky to have you!"
She blushed and half-closed her eyes in a seductive manner. "You really know how to flatter a girl." She replied. "I am so glad you came into my world, my King of the Ocean!" I kissed her upon the brow and allowed her to rest her head on my shoulder. We sat like that for hours, glad to be in eachother's embrace.
This was the kind of thing I'd dreamed about ever since I'd first seen Luna in the show. Sitting with her, holding her in my arms, loving her, knowing that she loved me. When 4:00 PM came along, my mother came in. She grinned at seeing Luna and I embracing. "Oh, how cute." She said as she walked past us. My grin widened as I held my beloved wife-to-be.
"I know she is." I whispered as leaned her head closer to mine and kissed my neck.
"I could stay in your arms forever." Luna said.
"Then why don't you?" She giggled and pulled me tighter against her. She was careful of my still-injured arm as she did so, though I still winced a bit at the slight pain. "Sorry." She said.
"That's alright." We stayed like that for several hours more until 10:00 that night. "Let's go to bed." I said, helping her up. She nodded and followed me, moving with grace.
We reached my bedroom and walked to the small bed. "Sleep well, Moon Pie." I said, kissing her on the cheek.
"Good night, Seabiscuit." She replied, returning the kiss. Finally, we laid down together as I snuggled her against my chest and closed my eyes.
"Good night, my love..."
.....
The next day, I woke very early. I looked out the window and realized it was still night. I checked my cell phone sitting on the nightstand. "5:30," I whispered looking over at Luna. "Glad we can sleep beside eachother for a little while longer." I put my phone down and put an arm over Luna. "More time with my beautiful Queen of the Moon."
I stroked her hair for several moments, loving it's silky feel. I was gentle as I stroked it, so as to not wake her. I couldn't believe how soft she was and how comforting her feel was. "Mmm..." I mumbled as I felt my eyes droop again. "She's just so... Warm..." I yawned quietly. Finally, I laid down, one arm still around her. I fell asleep once more, so in love and so glad that I was able to share a bed with the girl, with the woman... No, with the mare I loved.
.....
I awoke to the sight of Luna changing her clothes. I winced as I saw her and all her beauty, nude, in a moment that should be private. She looked at me, and she covered her breasts. "Oh, sorry, 'hon..." I said, blushing at the moment. Luna's cheeks flushed as well, then she just giggled and uncovered her chest. "It is alright, love," She said, smiling. "You are to be my husband one day. It does not harm me if you see me nude." I blushed again, but I was smiling now.
"Well, I'm glad you're not upset." I stood up and hugged her, enjoying the warmth spreading forth from her. We stared into eachother's eyes a moment, then she broke the embrace and continued dressing. I went ahead and changed my clothes as well, looking over at Luna every so often. After about 5 minutes, we had both finished dressing, and I took her by the hand and led her out of the room.
Upon entering the living room, we were greeted by my pet dog, Luke. "Hey, bud." I said, crouching down to pet the foolish doberman. I scratched his scraggly head and he jerked himself every which way in excitement. I grinned at his ignorant euphoria as Luna giggled. "Oh, General, General..." Luna mumbled, crouching down next to me. I looked over at her, and she did the same. I stopped patting the dog's head and did nothing but stare at the beautiful woman next to me.
I couldn't help but stare, and Luna giggled as she pointed at the side of my mouth. I looked down and realized I was drooling a bit. I wiped off the saliva quickly and blushed, embarrassed that she had seen that happen. "How adorable!" Luna said, giggling a bit as she did so. I blushed a bit more at that, then I rose and kissed her upon the cheek. "I love you so much, Luna!" I said as I drew her against me.
I kissed her once more, interlocking lips with her. "Hey, no spit-spwapping in the house!" I heard my mother jokingly say as she walked into the room. "Ma!" I exclaimed as I broke lips with Luna, the two of us giggling as well.
"Ah, you know I'm just teasing!" She replied. "So, what are you two gonna do today?" She asked, putting a pot of coffee on to boil. I thought a moment, then I decided. "Well," I said, grinning at Luna. "I think I might like to go with Luna on a picnic. Would you like that, love?"
Luna grinned. "As long as I'm with you," She said, bringing her arms around me. "I don't mind where we go!" I chuckled and copied her action, pulling her closer to me in a deep embrace. "Glad to hear."
.....
I walked out deep into the nearby woods with Luna, making sure I followed the path. At about noon, we found a small clearing where I spread out a tarp for the two of us to sit on while we ate. I sat down beside her, and I set down the small basket I had brought for the meal. I brought out a medium-sized plastic bowl of salad, a couple of fish and cabbage sandwiches, and a few apples.
I handed Luna her sandwich, put a little salad onto a paper plate for her, and put an apple by her leg. "So, Luna," I said, smiling. "How are you enjoying your time on Earth?" I scooted over closer, still grinning.
"It is very good," She said, a sad smile on her face. "But... I miss my own home a bit." I saw a single tear slip from her eye, though her good mood and slight smile didn't dissipate.
"Well..." I continued. "Why don't you go home? We can visit and stay there together, we can see everypony there again, and maybe we could start planning for the wedding, figure out when it will be." That all gave her a decent smile, then her eyes became as wide as dinner plates when I mentioned planning the wedding, and she nodded vigrously. "That sounds wonderful, love!" She said, bringing me into an embrace. I chuckled at her and her kind nature.
"Well then," I sighed, smiling as I did so. "I'm glad you like that idea. Let's eat our lunch here, then we can go back to my house and tell my mother our plan." She nodded and took a bite of her sandwich, smiling at the heavenly taste. "Well, guess this will be a great day, from how things are looking so far!" I took out my own sandwich and took a bite, grinning widely.
We sat there for several hours, enjoying the meal. Just as we both finished and began to get up, I heard some kind of growl. "Luna," I calmly and quietly said. "Stay down, don't make any sounds or sudden movements." She obeyed as I saw what was making the sound. It was a wolf. I saw the silver-furred creature walking out of the woods, growling menacingly. I just glared at it.
I was scared beyond belief, but I couldn't let the beast attack. It slowly walked around us. I knew the beast was probably just an adolescent, straying from his pack for whatever reason. I just glared the beast down angrily the entire time, a frown of great displeasure on my face. Finally, the beast walked off. I waited a few moments after before I let out a sigh of relief.
"Alright Luna," I said, offering my hand to help her up. "He's gone."
She nodded and took my hand. "Thank you," She said, grinning. "You risked yourself for me. I cannot thank you enough, love!" She threw her arms around me and laid her head on my shoulder. "Now then," She said, moving yet closer. "Time for your reward."
She brought her lips against mine, and I could feel warmth spreading out from her. I leaned into the kiss, breaching the wall formed by her lips with my tongue. She welcomed it, and pressed her own tongue against mine. The entities wrestled with eachother in a loving fight. Finally, we fell down upon the tarp, still kissing. Minutes later, she broke the kiss for just a moment. "General... You are my truest love, now and forever."
I nodded and continued the kiss, loving every moment that I tasted her. I loved feeling her flesh against my own, and so I brought her against me ever-tighter, rubbing against her as I did so. We laid there a long time, not caring what happened around us, caring only that we were together, able to love eachother. "I love you so much..." I whispered as I broke the kiss and made our embrace tighter. We laid there longer than I could remember, and we didn't break the embrace until daybreak.
"Well then, I guess we should get going now." I said as I took her hand and we left for my home, walking off into the sunset.
