On the Night I Met You

On the night I met you

Chapter 2

Tornado has never seemed any happier to be around a friend before, like if all of his sadness was blown away. Tornado just smiled widely and flew with his new friend, Scion.

“I’m so glad we met, Tornado, I really am.” Spoke Scion happily while they flew together.

“And I’m glad we met, Scion.” Tornado nuzzled his soft, silky cheeks and kept flying. The skies were clear, and the sun beamed down over Equestria alerting every pony that it was the start of a new day. “How about we go to Cloudsdale?” Tornado pointed towards the city made of clouds.

Scion sighed happily while he looked at Cloudsdale. “Sounds good to me, Tornado.”

“How about a race?” Tornado grinned towards Scion.

Scion shook his head. “I’m no racer, Tornado.” Scion chuckled lightly and then started cruising towards Cloudsdale. Tornado followed closely behind him.

“Fine by me.” Tornado smiled. Tornado decided to playfully push Scion and chuckling as he did it.

Scion chuckled and started doing it back. “Hey, careful.” Their chuckled turned into playful laughter and they gently nudged each other playfully for the rest of the journey until they landed on the clouds ahead of them. “Okay where to first?” Scion asked looking towards Tornado.

“I was thinking, there is a Wonderbolts show on later today,” Tornado looked at him in hope, “we could maybe go there?”

“I would love to!” Scion clapped his hooves in happiness. “Seriously, I would love to go!”

“You would?” A smile began to grow on Tornado’s face.

“Yes, of course, I mean who doesn’t like the Wonderbolts?” Scion nudges Tornado while he looked at him with a smile.

“The Shadowbolts.” Tornado answered laughing.

“Well, apart from them.”

“No pony.” Tornado smirked at Scion.

“Exactly, no pony hates them!” Scion seemed pretty excited to watch the daredevils. “Come on, let’s go!” Scion charged towards the Wonderbolts Stadium, actually running faster than Tornado.

Tornado was laughing while he shouted for him. “Hey, slow down!” Tornado’s words were covered by his joy and laughter, so it was hard to understand what he was saying. The stallions arrived at the Wonderbolts Stadium, looking up at the beautiful coliseum that was in front of them.

“This place is amazing!” Scion looked up in wonder as he gazed at the cloud formations turned into buildings.

“I know, come on.” Tornado smiled and flew up to the stadium while Scion followed behind him. Tornado gave the two tickets to the stallion at the entrance and they both entered. They sat down in the best seats in the whole area. “These are the best seats in the entire building; took me forever to get these spots.”

“This view is so amazing. Is it really true nopony else in this stadium gets this view?” Scion curiously asked.

“Indeed it is.” Tornado smiled as they both waited for the show to start. The performance was about to begin; the Wonderbolts were lining up preparing to begin.

A voice boomed into the speakers. “Three, two, one, GO!” The wonderbolts accelerated round the course at high speeds. “And they’re off!” The voice echoed around the stadium. The crowd was cheering, watching them race. Tornado and Scion were also cheering watching them race around the course.

“Wow, this is so amazing!” Cheered Scion as he was observing the Pegasi.

“I used to come here all the time,” Tornado replied, “but then, I moved to Ponyville.” The crowd were whistling and cheering. The odd shouts in the mob of ponies were heard, shouting the Wonderbolts names. One of the wonderbolts did a twist into the air and then plunged back down at high speeds. “Amazing stuff!” Tornado was clapping away with his hooves.

“Indeed it is.” Scion joined in the applauding, smiling. About a couple of hours later, the show ended. They both flew out the stadium. “W-wow, that was the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life.” Scion still had his wide smile on his face.

“I know, and it gets better.” Tornado smirked at Scion while he landed onto a cloud below them.

“How can it even get better?!” Scion asked in amazement, landing next to Tornado. The sun was beginning to set, creating a beautiful amber light on the edge of the horizon.

“Watching the sunset.” Tornado looked at him and nuzzled the cerulean buck.

“Isn’t that normally between two ponies who love each other?” Scion blushed a little and placed a wing round Tornado.

“No, not exactly. Friends can do it too.” Tornado answered. Suddenly Tornado began to feel warm inside, like if emotions began developing for him. Like if he had feelings towards Scion. Tornado didn’t say anything about it, he just cuddled Scion.

“It’s beautiful isn’t it?” Scion commented on the sunset in a soft tone to his voice.

“That it is.” Tornado replied in the soft tone also while staring into the amber sunset. Scion held Tornado closer as the sun got lower, slowly going under the horizon.

“You can’t get a better sunset than that, can you?” Scion slowly rubbed Tornado’s back, “You’d be lucky to see another sunset like that.”

“I agree there, Scion.” Tornado began snuggling with him. The sun just finished setting and the night settled in. The moon began coming out, sending a beautiful midnight blue glow over Equestria. Tornado looked up at Scion and fell asleep slowly.

“C’mon, let’s get home.” Scion nudged Tornado gently. “Tornado?” He looked at Tornado with a warm smile. “Adorable.” Scion said to himself. Scion gently picked up Tornado and flew him back to his house. “You can stay at mine for the night, buddy.” Scion landed at his house. It was fairly small but cozy. He opened the door and turned on the light, gently placing Tornado on the couch. Scion looked at Tornado with a warm smile and proceeded to his bedroom. The moon’s light came through the windows and onto the floor. It surely was a peaceful night in Ponyville.

Morning arrived, Scion was the first to wake up. Scion let out a yawn and got out of bed. “Good morn-” Scion approaches Tornado while he sleeps. He chuckled softly to himself. “Well I’ll go make a coffee.” Scion went to his kettle in the kitchen and began making himself a cup of java. I need to wake him up, yet that wouldn’t be nice of me to do so so I shall just leave him to sleep. Once the kettle was done making his coffee, he poured some into his cup and began to stir. Scion noticed he had a full cup and still has enough to pour Tornado some. Hmm, I should give him some too. He poured Tornado a cup, stirred it, and carried it to him, placing it gently on the table next to the couch.

The scent of coffee drifted under Tornado’s nose, beginning to wake him up slowly. Tornado awoke to the sight of Scion standing across from him, drinking his coffee. “Morning, Scion.”

“Good morning, Tornado.” He took a sip of his drink and placed it down on a table. “I made you some coffee.”

Tornado looked towards the cup that was given to him. “Oh hey, look at that, you did.” He picked it up and took a sip. “Thanks, Scion.” Tornado blew on the coffee to cool it down. “This is a really good coffee by the way.”

“Thanks.” Scion smiled and took another sip at his coffee. “Yesterday was great, wasn’t it?”

“Indeed it was.” Tornado responded, taking another sip. “When I can, I might take you to more.”

“You would?” Scion seemed shocked by Tornado’s response.

“Indeed my friend.” Tornado this time took a larger sip of his coffee, while he made eye contact with Scion. “And, I might just let you meet the other Wonderbolts.”

“As if you can do that.” Scion chuckled to himself, taking a sip.

“Well, I can get a VIP pass to see the Wonderbolts, they aren’t cheap though.” Tornado grinned and stretched his wings. “Oh hey, may I use your shower?”

Scion smiled softly, “Sure thing, it’s up the stairs, first door on the right.”

“Thanks buddy.” Tornado lifted himself onto his hooves and began trotting upstairs. The sound of the water spraying onto the shower floor was heard downstairs, where Scion was.

“I’ll make him some breakfast.” Scion said to himself while he made his way to the kitchen. A few minutes later, Tornado came out of the shower and came downstairs seeing a pile of mouth watering pancakes with a small, melting block of butter on the top with syrup poured on top.

“Ooh, I’m in heaven.” Tornado said, with his mouth beginning to make a fine trickle of saliva. His mouth was like a roof dripping with rain water.

Scion giggled and came into the living room, “Thanks, I made them myself.”

“All in a timespan of maybe ten minutes?” Tornado looked at him with a smile.

“Mhmm” Scion nodded his head as he hummed. “Pancakes aren’t really that hard to make.”

“Well I bet they turned out great!” Tornado sat down in front of the pile of pancakes and began eating. “And I was right.” Tornado said, shortly after swallowing the mouthful of sweet pancakes.

Scion blushed warmly when the compliment was given to him. “Well, thank you Torny.”

Tornado smiled and blushed shortly afterwards, hearing the name Scion had given him ”Torny? Hmm, sounds cute.”. A few minutes later, Tornado finished eating. “Thanks for those pancakes, Scion.” Tornado smiled at him, laying back on the couch. He opened his arms, “Snuggle?” He blushed slightly.

“I would love too.” Scion got on the couch and laid on top of Tornado gently, Tornado wrapped his arms round Scion as he rested his head comfortably on Tornado’s chest. Tornado secretly has feelings for Scion. How long can he keep them confidential? Will he ever reveal them? Only time shall tell.
