Luna's personal tastes are a little different than ponies think they are; as Fluttershy is about to find out.

A thousand years ago Luna’s personal tastes were considered unnatural. She did her best to keep them hidden.
A thousand years later she is still hiding them. Until....Fluttershy.

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord!

The air of the night.
Fanfic by Englishwitch

Last year ponies had looked on in fear at her arrival. This year they clapped and cheered as her chariot descended from the sky.

Luna smiled from her hiding place. Or she would smile if she had a mouth. She was in the form of a mist, hiding in the shadowy branches of Twilight Sparkle’s library tree home. The Luna that was sitting on the chariot was nothing but an illusion.

The chariot, pulled by her two pegasus guard, landed gracefully onto the ground. The illusionary Luna smiled to the crowd of assembled ponies.

The Mayor Mare of Ponyville, this year dressed as a manticore; wearing a fake lions mane and scorpion tail along with some make up, face-paint and false fangs, stepped up and bowed to the Luna in the carriage.
“Princess Luna, on behalf of the citizens of Ponyville, welcome to our nightmare night celebrations.”

She rose up from her bow just in time to see the illusionary Luna explode into a cloud of bats. The flying swarm of tiny creatures screeched and whirled through the air, scaring ponies as they darted through the audience and the streets before flying up into the sky. The black cloud of their flock vanished into the night.

The Mayor stared at the empty carriage. Luna, in her mist form, left her hiding place and slid along the ground toward the pony. The Mayor, oblivious, looked to the royal night guards for answers but their faces remained as impassive as ever.

Luna was right behind the mare, time to strike. Her cloud body reared up, swirling, twisting and solidifying into her true alicorn form.
“MAYOR OF PONYVILLE!” she called out in the full volume of the Royal Canterlot Voice. The Mayor yelped and made a strange noise, like a goat. Her whole body went stiff and she fell onto her back, legs in the air. Luna smirked down at her. “I believe the phrase is; Gotcha!”

Raucous laughter erupted from the crowd as they realised what had happened. The mayor, even Luna, laughed loudly. The princess helped the mayor back onto her hooves before turning to the crowd and speaking in a normal volume again. “Citizens, I declare Nightmare Night open. And again I remind you, call me Luna.”

She caught sight of three familiar ponies and said a quick farewell to the mayor. The princess of the night trotted up to a beautiful purple unicorn. “Twilight Sparkle, it is good to see you again. You also Applejack and Rainbow Dash.”

Twilight, who was recognisably dressed as Clover the Clever; even if Twilight had used roses to decorate her hair when everpony knew Clover preferred primroses, started to bow, then remembered that Luna insisted on her nightmare night visit being informal. Old habits tended to die hard. “It’s great to see you too Pri....I mean, Luna.” Old habits died very hard it seemed.

Rainbow was dressed in an unusual cape and pointed hat, both decorated with stars, the hat had a false unicorn horn sticking out of it and the cape did a good job of hiding her wings. The pony chuckled and nodded her head. “And that entrance, was just awesome! I thought you’d pull some kind of prank but I never saw that coming. I had no idea that wasn’t you in the chariot.”

Luna smiled warmly. “If you had suspected the illusion was fake it would have defeated the purpose of such a jest, would it not?”

Dash’s smile wavered slightly. “I guess.” she dead-panned. It was always hard to tell when Luna was trying to make a joke.

Applejack, dressed in a scarecrow outfit, tipped her straw hat to the princess. “We got lots of games and stalls this year Luna, we got the classics like bobbin’ for apples and the spider-toss; I know you like them. We also got a big selection of apple treats, would y’all care to try a caramel apple?” she held up a tray with freshly made caramel apples. The caramel was only just starting to set.

Luna took one of the treats in her magic. “I would be delighted.” She took a bite and her smile widened. “It is delicious.” she nodded her head to Applejack who smiled broadly. “You have your delightful treats to sell and the apple bobbing to run.” she looked to the lavender companion, “Twilight Sparkle, will you be able to give me a tour of this years festivities?”

Twilight nodded her head. “I would be delighted to Pr, I mean, Luna.” She led the way, taking Luna on a tour around the various stalls, some with games, others selling crafts and trinkets.

Luna continued to eat the apple. “Truly wonderful. My nephew, Prince Blueblood, would likely describe these as common carnival fare, the food of peasants. Not that Blueblood is truly my nephew, in reality he is a great great great great great great great great great great great (and probably even more greats) nephew on my mother's side. With the long lifespans of my sister and I possess, it is simply easier to be called aunt and nephew.
“I must say however, I would choose one of these delicious treats over a plateful of the tiny pastries the Canterlot elite eat these days. In my youth I remember the gala held sumptuous feasts, which were full of flavour and left everypony full and satisfied. There are many reasons I have not attended the Grand Galloping Gala since my return and the menu is one of them. The tiny dainty foods served are works of art to look at but often lack flavour and one has to eat many to feel even remotely full. If you can bring yourself to eat them in the first place. At some point in the last thousand years artists seem to have put down paintbrushes and have picked up mixing bowls full of icing sugar. One has the impression they were desecrating a masterpiece by starting to eat.”

Twilight could only smile and nod as Luna spoke. As acquainted as she was with the royal family of Equestria she had always found it strange when they spoke about such personal, or even normal, subjects. Cadence was an exception to that rule, partly because of how close she had become to the young alicorn during her fillyhood but mostly because Cadence, unlike Luna and Celestia, was not a ruler of Equestria and controller of the sun and moon.

“And where might your other friends be this evening Twilight?” Luna asked, snapping Twilight out of her thoughts.

Twilight looked around the crowd of ponies for a second, wondering if she could see them in passing. “Rarity usually works so hard to make costumes for everypony on nightmare night itself she usually goes to bed early. Pinkie Pie is out, being Pinkie Pie.”

Luna nodded. Then she realised a name was missing. “What of dear Fluttershy? The young pegasus who helped me to so much last year. Second to yourself Twilight, she helped me the most.”

Twilight looked a little uneasy. While everypony in Ponyville knew, it was a personal thing and Twilight wasn’t sure if Fluttershy would want the secret to be shared. However, this was Princess Luna, who knew them all quite well, she was a friend to them and all of Ponyville, she could be trusted with this. “Fluttershy is, afraid of Nightmare Night. When she was a filly she was bullied because she wasn’t a very good flier and she was so timid. On a Nightmare Night she got separated from her mother and was found by a group of fillies and colts who knew her. They were dressed in costume of course, which provided them some anonymity, which meant they were less likely to get in trouble for their teasing. They did tease her, quite badly. She’s been scared of Nightmare Night ever since. We’ve all tried to help her and she has gotten better but she still can’t stand being outside when it gets dark and the celebrations begin in earnest.”

Luna stopped walking. Twilight realised this a few seconds and turned to the princess. Deep thoughts were playing across Luna’s face.
“Princess?” Twilight asked, forgetting to be informal. “What’s wrong?”

Luna was silent for a few more minutes before she shook her head. “It is nothing Twilight Sparkle.” she looked thoughtful for a few more seconds. “If you don’t mind, I will leave your company for the moment, I wish to pay a visit upon dear Fluttershy.”

Twilight looked surprised. “Oh, okay. Do you want me to come with you?”

Luna smiled warmly and shook her head. “It is quite alright. I remember the way and I believe it will only be a brief visit. Enjoy yourself Twilight Sparkle, for that is the purpose of Nightmare Night.” She spread her wings and took to the air before Twilight could say another word. She soared over the streets and houses of Ponyville. She smiled down at the ponies, celebrating their festival. Enjoying her night in a way she never would have thought possible once. They mocked and made light of Nightmare Moon, not Princess Luna but Nightmare Moon. She loved them for it in ways she could never express. To make light of such a terrible thing as Nightmare Moon was the first step in helping forget the fear that she had caused. Oddly enough it was Pinkie Pie who could provide the words of wisdom to explain it; one simply had to giggle at the ghostly.

Princess Luna landed outside the small tree cottage of Fluttershy. Dear Fluttershy, who’s soft spoken voice and sweet nature had helped her almost as much as Twilight Sparkle had. She was kind, generous, gentle -

Luna shook her head and pushed the thoughts to the back of her mind. She could not think such thought, could not act on them. If she did....

Luna put the fear aside and knocked gently on Fluttershy’s front door.

“GO AWAY! NO CANDY HERE! VISITORS AREN’T WECOME ON NIGHTMARE NIGHT!”

Luna had been expecting this. It had happened last year. “Dear Fluttershy, it is I, Luna. I have come to speak with you.” She heard Fluttershy moving and the door opened a crack. A hint of pink hair and a blue eye could be seen.

“Princess Luna?” the door opened a little more, revealing a little more of Fluttershy’s face. Luna smiled as the gentle soft cheeks and delicate mouth came into view.

“Indeed,” Luna bowed her head slightly. “but please, dear Fluttershy, call me, Luna.”

Fluttershy squeaked. “Oh, I could never, I wouldn’t, I, I mean-”

Luna continued to smile. Polite and kind to the end. “It is fine dear Fluttershy. Whatever you feel comfortable with.”

Fluttershy looked visibly relieved. “Oh, thank you.”

Luna knelt to sit on the ground, putting her at Fluttershy’s level. “Fluttershy, I wish to apologise to you.”

Fluttershy opened the door wide enough to stick her head out of the door. “Apologise? But princess you don’t have anything to apologise to me for.”

Luna shook her head. “It is sweet of you to say Fluttershy, very sweet. Yet, I feel I must. Last year, when you aided me in speaking softly, you were scared of me.”

Fluttershy hid behind her mane. “Oh, well, I...um....”

As much as Luna would have loved to hear Fluttershy speak, she interrupted her. “There is no blame for it, all of Ponyville was afraid of me, and the fear of my alternate self, for a time. Later, I learned that ponies think it fun to be scared on this night and I believed your reaction was part of this group experience, that you did not mind frights on nightmare night. But tonight, I learned that is not the case. Your fear of me was genuine. I didn't know this. I would not wish anypony to be afraid of me. And so, I wish to apologise for scaring you.”

Fluttershy’s beautiful eyes emerged from their hiding place. “Oh, Princess, you don’t have anything to apologise for. I’m, um, I’m not...it’s Nightmare Night you see, I just get-”

“It’s alright Fluttershy.” Luna interrupted, “I understand.”

Luna smiled warmly. Fluttershy was too kind for words, beautiful inside as well as out.

The princess shook her head —almost imperceptibly— she pushed the thoughts aside, for both their sakes. She rose to her hooves and prepared to take her leave. She would return to the celebration and -

“Princess.” Fluttershy’s voice was a whisper on the wind but Luna’s ears heard her clearly. She turned to look to the yellow pegasus again. Fluttershy looked nervous and had to take a deep breath before she spoke again. “um, would you....um, would you like to come in for a cup of tea?....if you want to.”

Luna felt her heart skip a beat. She knew she should say no but that would hurt Fluttershy’s feelings and she couldn’t stand the thought of causing her harm of any kind. Keep yourself calm. She told herself in her head. You have faced such challenges before and have never raised suspicion. Although, I do admit, previous challenges were not so....adorable.
“I would like that very much dear Fluttershy.”

Fluttershy’s cottage home was cosy, if a little small for the alicorn princess. By keeping her wings tucked in tight and her head low she avoided knocking over anything or scratching the ceiling with her horn. Fluttershy did her best to clear a path for the princess and moved a small coffee table to the far wall to give Luna enough room to lie on the rug by the sofa. It was a comfortable spot and gave Luna some room needed to be comfortable.

Luna watched in silence as the timid pegasus moved around her kitchen, making a pot of tea for two. She watched her as an artist would gaze at the landscape, drinking in all the details, absorbing the spectacle of the natural beauty. Her soft coat, her well-preened feathers, the gentle waves of her mane. Her warm smile made Luna feel warm in her chest, those bright eyes made her heart skip a beat each time Fluttershy looked at her.

Luna was grateful for her dark coloured coat, it hid her flushed face very well. It had been so long since she’d had these feelings for anypony, she was a little out of practise in keeping them under control. She had to try harder, if not for her own sake then for Fluttershy’s.

Fluttershy placed a tea tray on the floor in front of Luna and lay on the rug opposite her. “Do you take milk and sugar Princess?”

Luna nodded her head once, “a little milk and one lump of sugar, and please, call me Luna.”

Fluttershy flushed. “Oh, I’m not sure I could.” she poured the tea to Luna’s order and held out the cup, which Luna promptly took in her magic.

She took a quiet sip before looking into Fluttershy’s anxious eyes. “Delicious.”

Fluttershy smiled and sighed in relief. “Oh, thank goodness. I’m so glad you like it. I would hate to give anyone bad cup of tea, especially a princess.”

Luna continued to smile at her. “You are so wonderfully kind and courteous dear Fluttershy. The way you love and care for all things before yourself is-” she stopped herself before the words could jump out of her mouth. Why was it so hard to keep these things inside?

The damage was done though, Fluttershy’s attention was gripped at Luna’s sudden stop. “is, what Princess?” She placed a reassuring hoof on Luna’s foreleg. The princess felt her heart race. A heat spread through her body from between her legs. Like a young filly in the beginnings of marehood Luna’s hormones had raced and just Fluttershy’s touch had been enough to cause arousal.

“Princess, are you okay?” Fluttershy asked. “You look a little flushed. Are you too hot? I could open a window.” She made to rise. Luna placed a hoof on top of Fluttershy’s own to stop her.

Fluttershy looked at Luna, a nervous smile on her face. Their azure eyes met, Fluttershy’s wide, confused and almost afraid. Luna’s deep as the ocean, care, concern and hints of the toll of long years.

Luna’s breath shook. “Dear Fluttershy...”

And then, she kissed her.
It was not an extravagant gesture, just a simple peck on the lips. Brief, but heartfelt. To Luna, it meant the world.

Fluttershy’s wings flared, her cheeks became the same shade of pink as her hair. She started to tremble. “oh...my....”

With that, the alicorn moved her head forward once more, locking their lips in another passionate embrace. Fluttershy resisted at first but quickly started to respond to Luna’s attention, pushing her head into the kiss, tilting her head slightly and even making an advance by probing Luna’s mouth with her tongue. Luna opened her mouth to allow Fluttershy’s appendage entry.

For minutes, Luna lost herself in the kiss, her tongue danced with Fluttershy’s own, tasting the pegasus in the most intimate way possible.

She felt a hot, wet, sensation spreading between her legs, but ignored it, putting all her attention onto Fluttershy. She wanted to take in her smell, her taste, feel the softness of her coat and mane, to know every inch of her.

The princess brushed a hoof up to gently touch Fluttershy’s cheek, gently brushing the soft silky coat. The heat between her legs was building and was becoming harder to put off.

With much regret, she broke the kiss and looked at the pegasus. Fluttershy’s eyes were closed and her cheeks were burning a bright scarlet. She had a gentle smile on her face and let out a content sigh. Luna became aware of the smell of arousal in the air, Fluttershy’s arousal. A powerful perfume with the scent of flowers that made Luna’s nether regions twitch in anticipation.

Fluttershy turned her head to the side in embarrassment, looking away from the alicorn and uttering a soft and adorable squeak. Luna took advantage of the situation, and with the yellow mare looking the other way, she raised her hoof, and brushed it against the pegasus’ engorged wings.

Fluttershy gasped, her whole body flinched as a surge of bliss rushed through her. Turning her head to the left she saw Luna’s muzzle buried deeply in her wing. Fluttershy cried out as Luna alternated between her tongue and teeth, they darted expertly between her feathers, nipping at the old feathers, cleaning dust and dirt from others. Fluttershy had never had such a professional, and intense, preening before. Luna knew exactly where all her sensitive spots were and was taking full advantage of them.

She pressed her rear legs together, trying to smother the fire that was building in her sex. The rubbing of her thighs sent a spark shooting up her spine, causing her to let out a long, low, moan. The sound woke up several of her animal friends who poked their heads out of their nests and holes to see what was happening to their carer. To her shock Fluttershy didn’t mind that they were watching her, she actually, kind of, liked it.

“Oh....” Fluttershy hips started to move of their own accord, grinding the air. “Please, Princess, please, don't stop!”

Luna’s response was an affectionate nibble over Fluttershy's wing bone. Fluttershy let out a quiet squeak as her marehood clenched tightly, trying to hold an organ that wasn’t there.

Just when she was going to reach her climax, Luna withdrew. She leaned her head up to whisper lovingly into Fluttershy’s ear.
“Now for the other one.”

Fluttershy gasped breathlessly. A fresh wave of ecstasy washed over her from her right wing. Luna’s lips and tongue, showing no sign of tiring, began grooming, brushing, nibbling, preening and loving, her wing with as much care and attention as she had shown the left.

Fluttershy’s hooves couldn’t stay still any longer, she rose her rear in the air and pushed her forelegs under her, bringing her hooves to her marehood. She gasped and moaned, her body trembled, her whole body was aflame with the twin sensations of Luna’s attention and her hooves rubbing at the hot, dripping folds of her pussy. Even the lightest touch to her sensitive clitoris made her squeak and gasp.

Fluttershy could hardly stand the heat and pressure building up inside her. Soft whinnies filled the air, the pleasure was becoming too much. Her vagina tingled, her rigid wings were hot and heavy. Her head swam, each light nibble on her wing bone sent powerful euphoric signals through her body.
“Oh, Princess...I’m...I ohohohohohohohohohohohoh!” Fluttershy let out a long, breathless, groan as her climax rocked her body. She arched her back, her forelegs trembled against her pussy, even her wings seemed to vibrate.

Finally she collapsed, falling limp on the floor. She lay on her front, breathing rapidly, trying to catch her breath. Her wings slowly started to soften but they still twitched with her rapid heartbeat.
“Oh....my....” was all she could get the energy to say.

The smell of sex was heavy in the air. Fluttershy’s juices were the main contributor to the perfume. Luna’s own wings were erect and stiff. Her marehood was so hot it felt like it was burning, she could feel how slick it was from her juices, they were practically dripping out of her. She looked lustily at Fluttershy. Flushed and sweating with the afterglow of orgasm upon her, to Luna she looked even more beautiful than ever before.

Fluttershy gasped as a hoof made contact with her inner leg, gently caressing the dripping fur. Soon, another hoof joined in on the other side, teasing and stimulating the lips of her sex.
“Princess, please...” she gasped, “I’m still sensitiiiivvvvvveeeeeeee.” her speech was robbed from her when Luna slid a couple of inches of her hoof into the hot, wet, folds of her pussy.

The alicorn kissed the pegasus on the neck, slowly trailing down Fluttershy’s body while her hooves continued to tease her marehood. Fluttershy started to pant heavily, she could feel the heat coming from Luna’s body. The princess shifted to get better access to her flank and the treasure between her legs. Luna’s own flank was next to Fluttershy, who rested her head on the crescent moon cutie mark and nuzzled it with her cheek. Her sweat mixed with the sweat coming from Luna. She could smell the princess's arousal, the warm musk rising from her pussy. Her panting increased as Luna’s kissing mouth reached her cutie mark. The Princess kissed the three butterflies in turn before moving on toward the prize.

On instinct Fluttershy rolled onto her side, exposing her belly to Luna and spreading her legs to give the princess full access to her pussy. Luna did the same before returning her attention to Fluttershy’s pussy.

Moving her head to Fluttershy’s soft underbelly, Luna brushed her tongue across one of the yellow pony’s nipples, receiving a sharp gasp of pleasure from the pegasus. Luna, ever so lightly, brushed her teeth over the nipple, making Fluttershy squeak again. Luna kissed the nipples affectionately before moving those final few inches to Fluttershy’s glistening, dripping pussy. A strong pink, the lips were slightly engorged from arousal, the clit stood hard, begging the princess for attention.

The alicorn obliged, moving her muzzle over the small nub she took it in her teeth. A squeal of pleasure echoed out of Fluttershy’s cottage, out into the night.

Luna buried her muzzle into Fluttershy’s pussy, lapping up the fluids flowing out of her. She tasted amazing, sweet, almost flowery. Her tongue danced over the mares sensitive folds. Each moan and squeak Fluttershy made when Luna hit the right spot was music to the princess's ears.

Luna’s tongue slowly probed deeper, Luna savouring the taste of the pegasus. She pushed herself deeper, past the lips and into her hot entrance. The smell of Fluttershy’s pussy made the princess's head swim. She was drunk on the scent and taste of the pegasus mare.

“Oh, Lunaaaaa!” Fluttershy cried out as the alicorn began licking her inner walls. Fluttershy’s cries was all the encouragement Luna needed, and she pushed her muzzle deeper into her lovers marehood.

As Luna dove her muzzle deeper into the yellow mare she brought up a single hoof and started to rub it against Fluttershy’s clit. The extra stimulation drove Fluttershy even closer to the edge. She ground her hips on Luna’s face, driving the princess's nose and tongue deeper inside her.

Luna increased her pace, moving her hoof and tongue faster but in time with Fluttershy’s grindings. Each move made Fluttershy moan louder. Her breathing was becoming wilder, more erratic, the walls of her pussy were twitching, tightening, on Luna’s tongue; she was getting close to another orgasm.

Luna latched onto Fluttershy’s clitoris, sucking, licking and nibbling on it gently. Fluttershy threw her head back and called out Luna’s name as her orgasm raced through her. Luna felt the wet splash of Fluttershy’s fluids against her muzzle as the pegasus was pushed into her release.

Luna lapped up the sweet fluids flowing from Fluttershy’s sex. Fluttershy ground her hips a few more times, riding the fading orgasmic aftershocks, before she flopped limply onto her back and stared at the ceiling. Her chest moved up and down rapidly as she struggled to catch her breath.

Luna lifted her head slightly and smiled at her satisfied lover. She stared at her lovingly; taking in her thin body, glistening with sweat, the way her chest rose and fell with her breathing, the beautiful pink flower between her open legs, still shining with her orgasmic juices. Confronted with the sight Luna couldn’t hold out any longer. Her hoof strayed down between her legs and her own hot, wet, pussy. She was literally dripping with anticipation. As her hoof brushed her clit she took a sharp intake of breath, then a soft moan on the exhale.

Fluttershy managed to lift her head, to be greeted with Princess Luna’s pussy and her hoof gently rubbing at her clitoris and the delicate pink lips of her pussy. All not more than a foot away from her head. Her eyes widened and she stared in fascination. She had never watched another pony masturbate, let alone be so close. The Princess’s juices were flowing, thick and plentiful. In Luna’s attempts to make Fluttershy feel so good she must have driven herself almost insane with arousal. Fluttershy had never been with another mare before, but after Luna had done so much for her she couldn’t let such kindness and effort go unrewarded.

Luna flinched, her eyes opening to stare down at Fluttershy. The little mare was brushing a fore-hoof against her thighs, slowly working her way upwards toward her sex. Fluttershy looked at Luna with that sweet smile on her face that made Luna’s heart melt. Fluttershy continued her ministrations, working up the thigh then teasing the outer lips of Luna’s pussy. Luna shuddered when Fluttershy’s hoof brushed against her eager lips.

Fluttershy teased Luna’s clitoris, making the princess yelp in delight. She leaned down to bring her mouth to Luna’s marehood, then gently brushed her tongue against Luna’s excited sex. The princess gasped at the sensation, quivering as the pegasus slowly parted the lips with her tongue.

The taste was not unpleasant, the texture was even quite pleasant. Fluttershy started slow, sampling and savouring the taste of the Princess. Luna closed her eyes and opened her legs further, she gasped and started to move her hips as Fluttershy found her rhythm and slowly built up her pace.

Fluttershy copied Luna’s technique by rubbing the princess's clitoris with her hoof as she pushed her tongue deeper into the warm, delicate, depths of the mare. Luna moaned in delight, gyrating her hips to try and force the pegasus deeper.

Fluttershy took Luna’s clit in her mouth and suckled. Luna threw her head back, calling out Fluttershy’s name in a deep, breathy voice. Her legs twitched and her wings flared as the small pegasus dug deeper into her inflamed marehood.

Luna’s walls clamped shut as her long awaited orgasm rushed through her. Her climax exploded out in a torrent of love juices. She screamed Fluttershy’s name so loud it rivalled the Royal Canterlot Voice, Fluttershy’s name echoed through the woods, reaching all the way to Ponyville. As her enormous climax came to an end, Luna could still feel Fluttershy’s hot breath against her nethers, trembling slightly as the pegasus lapped up the excessive remains of her sweet release.

Luna lay spread eagle on the floor. She sighed with satisfaction as Fluttershy finished drinking her juices. Her climax had been huge, she’d been pent up for a long time. Even if one didn’t count her thousand year exile to the moon then she hadn’t been with another pony for decades.

Fluttershy repositioned herself, turning around to rest her head at the crook of Luna’s neck, resting a hoof and a wing on the princess's chest. Luna placed a foreleg around Fluttershy. The warm glow of orgasms were upon them both and Fluttershy was deeply satisfied. Luna would have been except of the burden on her mind. She had lost herself in the heat of the moment, her arousal had driven her caution away and made her forget herself. And now they would both pay the price.
“Oh, dear Fluttershy, I am so sorry.” She brushed her hoof over Fluttershy’s mane comfortingly.

Fluttershy looked up. “There’s no need to apologise Luna, it was....nice.”

Even after I have ruined her life, she’s still so sweet. Luna thought. “I don’t deserve your kindness Fluttershy. I promise I will do all I am able to see you are not punished.” She shrugged the confused Fluttershy off her, rising to a sitting position. The pegasus saw Luna had a shine in her eyes which was the beginning of tears. “I may have to go into exile but you should not have to pay for my mistake, I should have controlled myself better. But I-”

Fluttershy placed a hoof over Luna’s mouth to silence her. She looked up at the alicorn with an expression of confusion, “What’s the matter Princess? Have I done something wrong?”

Luna shook her head rapidly. “Dear Fluttershy, no. It is I who erred.” She wiped a tear away from her eye. “Oh, perhaps you are not aware, perhaps what began as law became second nature to ponies. What we did....was illegal. We are two mares and we shared the most intimate of moments together. It is law in Equestria that two ponies of the same gender may not engage in sexual relations.” she hung her head in shame. “Those who do will be banished from the kingdom. I knew this, I have always known this. I am....usually better at hiding my feelings toward others. For so long I have known the punishment my urges would mean, for both myself and my lover.”

Luna wiped away another tear. “Even royalty must listen to this law, it is why I had to learn to hide my true feelings from everypony for so long. I could not lie with a mare as my heart wished, so I did not lie with anypony. The royal court has long forgotten but I still remember the nickname, whispered in the halls of the castle when nopony thought I could hear; A thousand years ago I was called Princess Prude, the virgin mare.”

She wrapped her wings around Fluttershy, pulling her close in a gentle hug. “I have never before allowed my heart to rule over my head like that. It is just....I find you so beautiful, dear Fluttershy.” both she and Fluttershy blushed. “my urges dominated me. And now we will face the punishment of Equestria. I will not be able to hide this from my sister, she knows when I hide a secret.” she looked out of the window to the star filled night. “oh dear Celestia, I am so sorry. Our reunion was too brief and now you must banish me again.”

“Luna.” Fluttershy’s quiet voice cut through Luna’s rant, silencing the princess. She noticed, for the first time, that Fluttershy had stopped calling her by her royal title. It surprised her, but not as much as the playful smile on Fluttershy’s face. “I know the law you’re talking about. I learned about it in school. In history class.”

Luna cocked an eyebrow. “History?”

Fluttershy let out a giggle that was light and warm. “You silly thing. I guess you hid your true self so well nopony knew they had to tell you. That law was repealed over 800 years ago. It isn’t illegal for two mares to be in a relationship. They can have relations, get married, even start families if they want.” She rose a gentle hoof and brushed Luna’s cheeks to wipe away the tears that had fallen during her fear-fulled rant. “You don’t need to hide your true feelings from anypony ever again.”

Luna’s grin became so wide it could have rivalled Pinkie Pie. She pulled Fluttershy into a tight hug. “Oh, Dear Fluttershy this is the happiest news I have ever heard.” tears started to fall again but they were tears of joy this time. “Thank you so much for telling me this. You have lifted a burden centuries old from me. How can I ever thank you?”

She slowly released Fluttershy, letting the little mare ease back. Fluttershy was smiling too, a rather odd smile that Luna hadn’t seen on her face before. “Well, um, if it’s okay with you....I have an idea.” She leaned in again and kissed Luna passionately on the mouth. Luna leaned into the kiss and slowly drew her wings around her lover once more.

Author's Note

Been a long time since I've written any adult fanfiction. This is the first time I've written a clopfic though. Stuff I wrote in the past involved fictional humans, not ponies.

That in mind, be kind in reviews.
