Chapter 1 – Maybes are not always...

The late morning sun brings two thoughts to your mind, the first is a painful reminder that you may have only had got a few hours of sleep yesterday. The second however is focused on the tiny sleeping light purple unicorn head that pokes out from its wrapped up cocoon that rest in Twilights hold.

You stare at the quietly sleeping foal as you and Twilight make your way back home from your late night.

Your eyes shift to the tired mare carrying her, as you look over her unbrushed coat and tangled mane your own exhaustion doesn't seem as bad. As you stare at her the thought tumbles in your mind, if you're tired you could only imagine how she must feel after last night. You do feel bad for not being able to carry Violet but the last thing you want to do is drop her.

As the library comes into view you pick up your pace in front of Twilight, the bag the nurse gave you is swaying from your neck and you have to focus on not tripping. But as you reach the front door you hold it open for Twilight.

Her voice is low but she gives you a sweet smile as she walks in, "Thank you."

You nod your head and patiently wait until she’s out of the doorway.

"...There you guys a...-" The little dragons voice stops as he stands from the bottom of the stairs. His eyes widen and he points his claw to the still sleeping foal, "D-Did the phoenix come last night?"

Twilight gives a giggle as she looks down at the little wrapped up pony, "Yep, and we had to chase her all night."

Spike stared speechless for a moment before he walks a little closer, he twiddles his claws as he talks in a low voice, "What's her name?"

Twilight sits on the ground as she brings Violet to rest in both of her hooves, "Spike, I would like you to meet Violet."

At the moment the little filly opens her eyes and stares at Spike.

You walk around where Twilight sits to get a better look at the little pony. You stand a little ways away as you look at her tiny blue button like eyes. You move your head away from her as you try to compose yourself.

Spike smiles as he looks at, "Welcome to the family Violet. I'm Spike."

Spike waits a moment for Violet to talk but Violet just stares at him with her tiny little button eyes almost with the look of confusion every baby has.

Twilight giggles a little to Spike, "Spike, she won't talk until she is two months old."

As you continue to look around the room your eyes meet a white and gold high chair sitting in the corner of the room. You blink at the chair trying to figure out how long it’s been there, "Hey Spike where did this come from?"

Spike looks up from the little filly, "Oh Celestia brought that by a little bit ago."

Twilight's ear flicks a little at the name, "Celestia did what?" She looks over to what you stand in front of.

You get a straight face as you look her over, tired...holding a baby and I’m the dad...no threat, "Ya, uh Celestia was at the hospital when you were..." You look at Spike before you continue, "...Resting from chasing the phoenix." You give a smile as you wait.

Twilight blinks at you, "Later we need to talk."

You nod your head, crap.

Spike snaps his claw as he talks, "oh ya she brought a letter by hold on." Spike waddles up the stairs.

Twilight smiles as she calls up to him in a tired voice, "Take your time." Her smile is lost as she turns back to you in a whisper yell, "Why didn't you tell me Celestia came by?"

You shrug to her.

Before she can talk Spike is back at the top of the stairs waving a letter, "Here you go Twi, and don't worry I didn't open it like she said."

Twilight holds her free hoof out as Spike gives her the letter. But she has trouble reading it with only one hoof. She looks to you as she talks, "Could you hold Violet?"

You hold your emotionless expression as you look at her, "no."

Twilight squints at you with a giggle, "She's not going to bite."

You look to the little blue eyes that are staring at you, you stare back to her as you talk, and “I would drop her."

Twilight hoofs the letter back to Spike as she talks, "Come here."

You stare at her for a moment.

She motions with her free hoof to walk and you eventually make your slow way over to where she sits on the ground.

Twilight looks down at Violet as she talks, "You're not going to drop her."

You shake your head again, "I can barely hold anything."

Twilight cradles Violet in her two hooves as she looks at you, "You're not going to drop her because you're never going to hurt her."

She brings her hooves up to you as she hold Violet a little up to you.

You shift your gaze to Twilight as you think, I'm going to break Violet...You stare at Twilight's trusting eyes as she holds Violet up to you.
You sit next to Twilight as move closer to her.

Twilight moves Violet to one leg as she places her newly freed hoof on you, "Now just make a net with your legs." After she helps you she brings her hoof back to Violet as she cradles her.

You feel like a statue as you hold the pose Twilight gave you.

Twilight giggles as she moves Violet into your grasp, "Don't scare her."

You give a light laugh as you feel the blanket she is wrapped in start to touch your fur. You hold all of your concentration to the little filly that now comes to rest in your hold.

Violet shifted her head to Twilight as she stands next to you and her.

You smile to the little filly as you hold her, the feeling in your stomach almost feels like you're going to be sick but you know you're not, not just because you haven't eaten yet but just because you somehow know that it’s just a father thing...or that you're really hungry.

Her soft blue eyes start to move back to you as she looks up to you. Your smile grows as you talk in a low voice, "Hey...how are you doing."

Twilight looks down on you two with a smile as the little filly stares up at you.

Her little mouth is open almost in what looks like a smile, the drool that sits on her mouth starts to form little bubbles in it as the tiny little filly's smile grows across her face.

You laugh a little as you look her over, Violet uses cuteness, and it was very effective.

End of chapter 1

Chapter 2

Chapter 2 – One for you

You sit on the ground a little bit more comfortable and sure of yourself, after only a few minutes of being in your arms Violet's eyes have closed and she seems to be asleep in your arms. Moving now is impossible so you have accepted the small amount of pain you have from how you are sitting on your tail.

Twilight places the bag that you were carrying on the table in the library, "The doctor said we need to feed Violet when we got home, he also said we should know because she would cry."

You look down to the little filly as you talk, "Well she hasn't cried?"

Twilight taps her hoof to her mouth as she talks, "Well the nurse did say if she doesn't cry that we might need to help her work her vocal cords."

You squint at the comment, "we're going to make her cry?"

Twilight shakes her head at you, "No, we are going to help her work her larynx and lungs. The nurse said she didn't cry when she was born right?"

You look at Twilight concerned face as you shake your head, "Is that bad?"

Twilight looks at the little filly as she talks, "Well it helps a baby get rid of any fluid in the lungs."

You think about that for a moment, you have been around the little filly since you saw her and have yet to see her cry, "I-is that bad?"

Twilight shakes her head, "Well...well it might be because she had an early birth." Twilight's voice changes as she tries to lighten the mood, "But she can't talk for another month."

You look down at the baby and then back to her, "A month?" You look back to Twilight with a dumbfounded smile, "You ponies don't like to wait do you?"

Twilight giggles as she walks over to you and Violet. "We ponies don't like to wait, and yes she should be able to say her first words in a month." As she reaches for her Violet the little fillies eyes open.

Violet blinks at her as she is scooped up from your grasp.

Twilight giggles to Violet as she talks in a low voice, "Hi, are you hungry yet?"

Spike jumps from the staircase as he talks, "No, I already ate."

You roll your eyes to his comment as you stand. You watch Twilight unwrap the little pony as she sits on the chair near where the bag from the hospital sits on the table.

Spike stops at the door as he looks to Twilight, "Oh, and Violet." Spike turns to you with a smile, "Do you think she would like to suck on a gem?"

You smile at him as you think, if you give my baby a gem to choke on I will burn you. You hold that thought for a moment as you look over the little filly with a never before feel sense of pride.

As Twilight puts the pink blanket that Violet was warped in on the table. You laugh at the sight of Violet in a diaper, "Ponies wear diapers?"

Twilight places Violet in the white and gold high chair that sits in the corner with another tired giggle, "No babies wear diapers, if a grown pony would wear a diaper that would be gross."

Spike blows at the comment, "If Rarity wore a diaper I would change her."

You and Twilight both stare with a straight face to Spike, it even looks like Violet was confused at the comment.

Spike shifts his eyes between you two, "What?"

You look back to Violet as you shrug off Spikes comment, "Should she be in a high chair?"

Twilight looks at the little filly and as she does Violet moves her head to stare back. Twilight turns back to you with a smile, "Ya? A foal can walk after only a few minutes after birth, it doesn't hurt their spines or anything."

You nod at the comment as you think, and here I know nothing about ponies.

Twilight pulls the chair closer to wear Violet sits, "You like to be up high don't you?"

Violet smiles at Twilight's baby voice and begins to wiggle her two front legs towards Twilights face.

Twilight holds a sweet smile to the little filly as continues to play around with her.

Violet continues to wiggle her two legs as Twilight's face gets closer then backs up.

Twilight rest her head on the table of the high chair in front of Violet with a peaceful sigh. Violet takes advantage of Twilight not moving her head and begins to play with Twilight's mane that sits in front of her.

You look on from the same spot you have yet to move from. The feelings of worry and fear of the past weeks no longer dwell in your mind. You stare happily at the smiling light purple filly as she continues to turn Twilight's already tangled mane into a mosh pit of cluttered shades of purple.

"Ok, ow ow." Twilight tries to move her head from the little ponies grasp but Violet has claimed onto into in a silent smile. "Let go of my mane Violet." Twilight tries to still act like she’s playing as she breaks free.

Violet gives a silent yawn as her eyes droop down a little.

You and Twilight both follow with a yawn.

You look over Twilight's ruffed mane and messed up coat as you remember the night you two just went through, "Twilight, go to bed."

She shakes her head as pulls the bag from the hospital closer to Violet, "No, we haven't even feed Violet yet."

Your ears perk up as you talk, "I can do that." A smile crosses your face as you speak those words.
Twilight turns to you with a little giggle.

The smile you once had is now a faded myth as you stare at the lavender mare laughing at you from where she sits.

Twilight gives another yawn as she dips her hooves into the bag, "it's not that you can't, I just want to do it."

You roll your eyes at her as you talk, "Ok, then you goes to sleep."

"No, then I need to make a schedule for Violet's feeding." She hold her head up high as she continues , "I want to make sure Violet gets all the play time, feeding time and sleep time she needs."

Your eyes shift to the little filly that now watches Twilight as you think, oh ya Violet...your mom likes to plan for the unplannable.

Spike scratches his head as he talks, "Do I need to get a list ready?"

You laugh at his comment, "No Spike you can't plan for a baby."

Twilight's hooves leave the bag holding a bottle and a small box, "Ha, I never am unprepared." her eyes go wide before she talks again, "Oh no, we don't have a crib!"

You chuckle at her fail but silent like think, oh crap.

"Uh...Celestia brought one by today also." Spike gives a little laugh as he walks over to the letter that sits on the ground from before, "Maybe you should read this."

Twilight's magic purple grasp wraps around the letter, but before it could move you speak up "NO, no magic."

"Puff, telekinesis is n...-" Twilight stops her voice as she looks back to Violet, "Oh...ya."

Spike squints at the fading purple grasp, "You can't use magic still?"

Twilight opens the box and takes out a small bag of powder as she talks, "Well baby unicorns need to find their own magic, and any disturbance could have unwanted results."

Spike holds the letter up to you as he talks. But you don't listen as you stare at the letter, how am I supposed to...you cut your mind off as you bite down on the letter that was held up to you, god...why does this feel normal.

You walk the letter over to Twilight as Spike and her conversation still trails on, "...So how long do you need to stay away from magic?"

Twilight pours the powders over the milk filled bottle as she talks, "Well it depends on how long Violet takes to use magic."

She nods her head to you as you place the letter on the table.

"...She could learn magic in a month or." She pauses at her words, "...Or a few months."
Spike squints at the words, "And you think Celestia is ok with that?"

Twilight puts the bottle down as she takes the unopened letter into her hooves. She clears her voice as she starts to talk, "My dearest Twilight, you have just taken your first steps into the biggest adventure you will ever take." She smiles at the letter as she stops, "...And don't worry about your studies for now, if there is anything that your letters on friendship have taught me, it’s that life and love are two things that cannot be taught, they must be felt."

Twilight blinks a letter as she turns it over, "...That’s all it says." Her eyes scan the letter again before she looks up at you.

You smile back to her knowing that you wouldn't be able to say anything that could fit the moment anyways.

End of chapter 2

Chapter 3

"Ya, the crib I-..." You stop your sentence as you near the bottom of the stairs and see Twilight's face plated on the table.

She jerks her head up as she talks, "What?"

Spike laughs a little bit from his seat at the table, "Twilight you should go to sleep."

You nod your head as you agree, "Either you walk up the stairs or I carry."

She giggles as she wipes some of the baby formula from Violets mouth, "You can't carry me."

You think about her words for a moment, obviously she doesn't know tha-... never mind, " Then drag you up the stairs."

Twilight stretches her two front legs as she looks out the window, "It's not even barely past noon, I’m not going to sleep." She gives another yawn as she finishes her sentence.

Her eyes are hardly half open as she takes the empty bottle from Violets mouth, "Well I guess I could go to sleep for a few minutes." She turns to face you as she talks in a more rushed voice, "But don't take Violet outside, we don't know if she is allergic to anything."

You nod your head as you know there is more to come.

"If you let her walk help her to stand, don't let Spike pet her."

Spike crosses his arms as he talks, "I know how to not poke a pony’s eye."

Twilight smiles at him before continuing, "Don't drop her, don't let her climb the bookshelves, don't let her eat the books..."

You nod your head hoping that each item will be the last item but the list keeps growing.

After a good five minutes of her talking and taping her hoof to the other one she finally lets up, "...And lastly don't use magic around her."

You stare at her, "ok don't take Violet outside got it."

Twilight sighs a little annoyed, "That was the first thing."

You chuckle as you walk over to her and nudge her to get out of the seat, "Twilight, I'm not going to leave the house, and you're just up stairs."

She reluctantly gives a nodding yawn as she makes her way to into the other room.

You take her seat next to Violet as you wait for her to go up the stairs. As Twilight vanishes from sight the little filly’s soft blue eyed gaze turns back to you, her mouth hands in the typical baby like O face as she stares at you.

Spike pushes himself up from the table as he looks at Violet, "You think she knows Twilight is not coming back for a bit?"

You roll your eyes at him, "I am perfectly capable of taking care of Violet." You look back to the little filly with a smile, "Right?"

Her face trembles a little as she looks back to the stairs. Your face lights up a little as you watch her nose wrinkled up. You feel happy that she might cry but at the same time you wonder if that makes you a bad person? But you push that thought aside as you tell yourself, well at least I can tell Twilight Violet got her first cry in.

Violet's mouth opens but no cry comes out instead you hear a loud belching noise...well loud for her size. She wiggles her two front legs on the table that sits in front of her with a smile.

Spike laughs at the little filly’s happy moment.

You on the other hand can’t stop thinking about how adorable that sounded.

The sweet moment is lost as a loud thud is heard from the window behind you.

You turn around to the sight of a normal Ponyville day with a little bit of confusion, "Ok?"

A knock at the door shakes the confusion as you quickly go to the door to stop the loud banging.

As you open the door your eyes meet the cyan Pegasus rubbing her head, "Ya, tell Twilight she needs to take the baby spell off the window...the locks are good enough."

"Hi Rainbow."

She gives a shocked laugh as she pokes your chest, "You look as tired as a mule! Did you and Twilight stay up late?" She nudges you with her hoof again as winks at you.

You're too tired to pick up on her gesture so your answer is quick and not thought out, "Ya."

Rainbow's joking face turns long as she rubs her neck with her hoof, "Is uh...that ok with a foal?"

You finally pick up on her earlier statement as you shake your head, "What? Oh no, no."

She regains her normal tomboyish voice as she laughs at you, "Ok, well you want to come with me? I figure someone should thank you for saving our lives yesterday."

You stare at her a little confused as you think, wait....are we still talking about the same thing?

She notices your straight faced stare and is quick to continue, "Me and Pinkie where going to hang out at the lake didn't know if you and Twi wanted to join us."

You shake your head at the statement, "Can't take Violet out."

Rainbow squints at the name, "Whose Violet."

You smile that your name drop worked, you don't know if you should let other ponies around a newborn foal...but then again you don't know everything about the world of talking horse that you have made a family in anyways. Note to self, read more?

Rainbow looks you over a little confused at your happy expression, "What did you burn th...-" Her voice is stopped and her wings are sprawled out to the sides as she looks at the little light purple unicorn filly whose blue eyes are staring right back at her.

You walk up beside the one in a lifetime awestruck Rainbow Dash as you talk in a low voice, "Rainbow, meet Violet."

Spike waves his claw to Rainbow, "Hi!"

Rainbow is still silent as she walks a little closer to Violet.

You watch with the same proud feeling that you had earlier today as Violet smiles to the cyan Pegasus.

Rainbow looks back to you with a sweet smile, "She’s not yours."

You squint at her word for a moment, before giving a light hmmm sound.

Rainbow grabs the filly from the seat and brings her closer to her in a hug as she takes up off the ground, "Ya, there is no way that you had something to do with this cute of a filly."

You chuckle at the comment but you are quick to show your first sign of fatherly protection as you talk, "That’s cute Rainbow, now put her down."

Rainbow closes her eyes as she rubs her muzzle against Violet. She moves her head from Violet as she gives a tomboyish scolding, "Pff, I'm not going to drop her? I could carry Twilight remember, heck I even your lugged pass out flank home yesterday."

You nod your head as you talk, "Ok well could you put her down for me?"

Rainbow looks at the little filly in her hooves as her tomboyish voice changes to a high pitched voice baby voice, "Look your daddy is all scaredy weirdy..." Her eyes widen as she look back to you and Spike, "...What....she’s cute."

Rainbow places the smiling filly back into the high chair as she talks in a forced tomboy voice, "So like when did Twilight go into labor?"

You walk past Rainbow to Violet as rub your hoof to the little fillies head, "Well that’s a long story."

Rainbow flops herself into your seat as you stand next to Violet, "well besides from cloud duty, which I can get done in like twenty seconds I’m free...so tell me."

You sigh as you try to remember though the bags under your eyes.

End of chapter 3

Chapter 4

Chapter 4 – You're just a big colt

Rainbow sits on the edge of the seat with her ears pointed up listening to everything you say. You pause every time you get to a part where you think Spike should not hear it but other than that it feels good to let your emotions flow out of your as you finish the story. "...And that’s why I want you to be quite."

Rainbow giggles a little as she talks, "Well Twilight most likely used her silence spell."

You squint at her, "What?"

Rainbow looks around the room as she talks, "Ya Twilight came up with the spell that blocks sound in or out of a room. She came up with it so that you guys wouldn't keep Spike up." Rainbow snaps her head to Spike as she talks, "Uh, you know because pony's hooves are noisy on the wood."

Spike crosses his arms as he sits back in his chair, "I don't know how many times I told Twilight she needed to make that spell."

You smile at her comment.

Rainbow brings her hoof up to her nose as she squeals, "Ugh, what's that smell?"

You take a deep breath as you try to figure out what she’s talking about...bad move, the landmine of smell that you have just allowed to explode in your nose makes you snap your face to the smiling filly that you still stand beside.

Her innocent little smile is just a cover up that the three of you easily see through.

Spike plugs his nose as he talks, "Ugh...I don't know how to change a diaper soooo." He starts to slide of the seat as he tries to get away.

"Hey, Spike...did Celestia bring diapers?"

Spike still holds his nose plugged as he points to a cabinet in the kitchen, "No, but Twilight got some like last week, it was on list forty two."

You walk over to the wood cabinet as you think, ok...diaper...that’s like changing pants right?...which I haven't done in a few months.

You bite down on the bag as you pull it from the cabinet.

Rainbow moves a little away from Violet as she talks, "Why don't you just zap the diaper on?"

You carry the bag in your mouth over to the table as you muffle, "Because isfeaifsdcbdjsxb."

"What?"

You place the bag on the table as you talk, "No magic...um...do you know how to change a diaper?"

Rainbow's eyes shrink as she nods, "Ya?"

You give a sheepish smile to her as you tap the bag with your hoof.
She shakes her head as she backs up to the door, "Oh ya I forgot to tell pinkie about not meeting her so."

You point to Rainbow as you talk, "Spike attack!"

Spike stares at you, "What?"

Note to self Spike requires more badges. "Rainbow one time?"

Rainbow shifts her eyes to the door and back to you before she finally gives in, "Fine, but you're throwing it away."

You nod your head as she walks past you....but just as she opens the bag and sets the pink blanket on the table next to Violets high chair you realize something...I have to carry it with my mouth....

You shake the impending doom thought off as you watch Rainbow.

Spike stares with a little bit of a grossed out voice, "I eat their..."

Violet smiles and wiggles her legs at Rainbow as she tries to place the new diaper on her, "H-ey stoP movveing." Rainbow finally gets the fillies legs in places as he fastens the new diaper.

"Ok now it’s your turn."

You stare at the diaper..."Hey Spike how would you like to become my best friend?"

Spike pokes at your side, "No, this is all yours."

Rainbow places the smiling filly in the high seat again as she raise her eyebrow to you, "Well?"

You stare at the diaper silently hoping it will go away.

Rainbow's wing scoops under it as she smiles devilishly, "Catch."

You watch as her wing's muscle tightens and the diaper comes at you. In a blink of an eye the diaper is engulfed in a green magic and is turns into ash. You stare as a fear and madding feeling starts to turn in you, "Rainbow! No magic!"

Rainbow rolls her hoof at you, "You're far away and look Violet is fine."

You stare at the smiling filly as you start to simmer down, "NO, don't ever do that again, got it?"

Rainbow rubs her hoof to her neck as she talks, "Sorry I was just having some fun."

You slow your rushed breath down as you calm down.

Spike tries to lighten up the mood as he talks, "You know, that was a quick spell. Magic only affects surrounding things when it’s a long spell."

You nod your head to him as you stand in the same spot looking at Violet, her eyes start to shift around the room and she doesn't seem to care about what just happened.

Rainbow smiles as she talks, "Hey, I got something she might like." She darts to the door as she talks, "I'll be right back ok?"

You shake your head in disbelief, she thinks I got over it that fast? You rub your hoof to your head as you talk, "Rainbow, don't tell anypony about Violet. I don't want everyone coming by on the first day alright?"

Rainbow blows at you, "Are you kidding everypony is helping with cleaning up the cotton candy and fudge puddles from Discord." Her eyes get big as she talks, "Oh man I was supposed to take Pinkie to the lake that way she didn't go chocolate crazy!"

You squint at her, "I thought you sai..-"

"Got to go!"

The door slams behind her as she leaves. You stare at the door a little confused before you turn back to Spike, "You want me to clean this up?"

He rolls his eyes as he walks away, "You can't even change a diaper...you can't sweep."

You shrug at the comment as you walk back over to Violet.

It’s been about a few hours since Rainbow left and you're starting to think that she most likely is not coming back. You give a yawn as sit in the chair next to Violet. Spike has got up stairs to do something but you can't remember what.

The high chair next to you starts to shift a little as Violet wiggles her little legs.

You smile to her as you look at her, "What?"

She stares at the ground as continues to wiggle her legs. You look down at the wood floor as you try your own attempt at a baby voice, "You can't be hungry I just feed you?"

She stops wiggling as her baby like O faces stares at you.

You chuckle to her as you look her over, "ya-ya, my voice is different than mommies." You hold the word in your mind for a moment as you look at the little soft purple filly..."You know Violet...I thought I would freak out by now."

She gives a little grin as she looks past your face but you continue to talk to her, "...But I’m glad I didn't."

You hear an all too familiar giggle beside you as you stop talking, "I'm glad to."

You turn your head to Twilight as she enters the room. She still looks tired but at least her mane and coat look well rested, "Hi Twilight."

Twilight smiles to you as she grabs Violet from the chair, "Are you ready for a nap?" At the end of her words Violet gives a yawn.

You follow after her with a loud yawn as you stand from your seat, "Yes."

Twilight stops by the stairs as you make your tired walk over to her.

End of chapter 4

Chapter 5

Chapter 5 – sleep never comes

As you walk past the front door a gust of wind and a loud voice stops your movement. You look to the pony that has her shelf pressed up against the door, "Um...can we lock your door?"

Rainbow smiles innocently as she continues, "I might have told Pinkie."

You stare at her for a second and why is th..-

Before you even have the moment to think the door behind Rainbow flies open to the excited pink fluff ball, "Twilight! IheadyouhadthebabyandIwasntthere!I'msososososososososorry!!!"

Pinkie's eyes tear up as she sets her backside on the ground waiting for Twilight to answer.

Twilight gives a little giggle as she talk, "It's ok Pinkie, and there was no way you could have know."

The overly too excited smile that usually sets on Pinkies face returns as she just up from the ground with a gasp, "Thankyou!" She hops from the ground and in mid air somehow darts towards Twilight's side where Violet rest in her hold.

"And what's your name little one?" Pinkie's happy face stares at the baby like O face of Violet.

Twilight backs up a little as she talks in a proud happy voice, "Her name is Violet Sparkles."

You smile to the full name as you watch Pinkie.

The ball of joy places a party hat on Violet from what seems like nowhere and puts a party blower in her own mouth, "Happy birthday Violet, your aunty Pinkie pie will always be here to make sure you have a great and sunny day!"

Pinkie reaches for Violet but Twilight moves away, "Um, Pinkie could you calm down a little if you want to hold her?"

Pinkie smiles as she sits back down on the floor, "Ok."

Your eyes widen a little as you watch Twilight pass Violet to the manic Pinkie, "Uh, shouldn't Vio...-"

Before you can complete your sentence Pinkie, who now hold Violet rolls onto her back and has Violet in the air above her as she talks in a baby voice, "Whose a good unicorn? Who’s a good unicorn?"

Twilight holds her hoof out to Pinkie now slightly regretting her choice, "Now Pinkie doesn’t move too much."

Rainbow stands next to you as she nudges and whispers to you, "ha ha, if she freaks out about Pinkie she would do a flip higher than me if she knew I fly her of the ground."

You nod your head as you whisper back, "Ya so don't say anything."

She has a devilish smile as she nods. But you don't notice it as you focus on Pinkie as she keeps bringing Violet down to her face then back up into the air, "Upanddownupanddownupanddown."

Twilight again shows a little concern as she talks, "Pinkie she’s not Pound Cake or Pumpkin, she was just born."

Pinkie blows at Twilight as she answer back, "Duh, I know that."

Violet wiggles her tiny legs to Pinkie as she continues to mess around with her.

Twilight's concern starts to fade a little at the sight of Violet's smiling face, "ok Pinkie."

Pinkie blows a raspberry at Violet every time she comes down to her face. Violet's smile grows bigger and her mouth beings to open. You and Twilight look on with a smile as you wait for the little filly's laugh.

But the sound that follows this motion is not something either one of you expected. Violet still has a big smile and wiggles her legs happily but the sound now echoing from her is a high pitched almost wheezing sound.

Pinkie's ears perk up as she starts to slow down the up and down play.

Violet continues to wezz happily as Pinkie begins to sit up.

Pinkie wiggles a hoof in front of Violets mouth as she talks in a happy voice, "You laugh like Mr. Waddle."

Rainbow holds her hoof out as she talks, "I-is that normal?"

Pinkie looks to Twilight with a straight face as she continues to hold Violet.

Twilight is silent for a moment but then shakes her head, "I think we need to give somepony a nap."

You nod as you shift your eyes from the little purple filly to the window, the sky looks amber and at the sight you feel your body's hidden exhaustion start to bubble up from your body as you yawn.

Twilight grabs hold of Violet as she pulls her into her grasp, "...Don't you Violet?"

Violets eyes are half open and she gives a tiny yawn to Twilight.

Pinkie gives a loud awwww as she looks on.

You smile to her as you think, you didn't do that for me.

Twilight looks up from the filly as she talks, "Could you girls not tell anypony for a few days, I don't want too many ponies stopping by until we can get settled in."

Pinkie stands up with a smile, "Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my....Twilight do you want a cupcake?" She smiles as she waits for her answer.

Twilight shakes her head as she talks, "I don't think so, and I want to try to get rid of this baby fat."

You smile as you look over her still slightly puffed out sides, "I don't mind it."

She turns to you with a little blush, "Well I do."
Rainbow taps her hoof to her mouth as she talks, "So you don't want anypony stopping by so that you can get a schedule for Violet right?"

Twilight nods her head.

Rainbow lets out a laugh as she points to Violet, "You hear that Violet? You get to be an egghead."

Twilight smirks to her as she talks, "Oh Rainbow, the new Darning Doo is on the last shelve third row."

Rainbow blinks her comment out as she slowly walks over to the other room, "Not that there is anything wrong with that Violet."

You watch as Rainbow casual walks to the book and quickly tuck it under her wing.

Pinkie darts over to her as she wraps her hooves around her, "Come on Dashy, these ponies need time alone."

You wave to Rainbow as Pinkie drags her to the door, "Bye...Dashy."

Rainbow gives an annoyed groan as she is pulled through the door.

As the door closes behind them you look back to Twilight who has started up the stairs. You pick your pace up as you catch up beside her.

You both give a silent smile to each other as you enter your room. You give a yawn as you make your way to the bed. Twilight walks to the corner of the room where a gold and white crib sits. You watch as she slowly lowers the light purple filly into the bed. Twilight pulls a small pink blanket over her and kisses Violets forehead.

You smile as climb into the bed. You hold yourself away for a few moments as you watch Twilight start to leave the room, "You're not going to sleep?"

Twilight looks back to you as she stops at the threshold of the door, "I have been asleep almost all day."

You smile to her as you move over, "Then why get up?"

She looks at the open spot in the bed as turns back to the room.

Your eyes stare up at the ceiling in the dark room, you woke up a few minutes ago but Twilight lays to up against you for you to move anywhere...which is fine with you anyways, you may be awake but your still too tired to want to move. You shift your eyes to her dark mane in the moonlit room as you think about the last two days. You give a light chuckle to yourself as you shift in the warm bed, these last few days have felt like two weeks.

Twilight shifts her head next you as she looks up at you in a low voice, "You ok?"

You smile at her question as you think it over, am I ok? For the last few months that was your question to her. You give her a light kiss as you talk, "I'm fine."

She nods and closes her eyes again. You watch her for a few moments before you shift your eyes to the corner of the room where the gold and white crib sits. Even in the dimly light room you can see the light purple filly's head poking up from the top over the covers. You hold your sight to her for a few minutes before you rest you head back on the soft pillow. You whisper to yourself as you do this, "Welcome home Violet."
