The Moon and it's Flowers

Previous Chapter

As I walks out through the front door, I am greeted through the shadows by my good friend, Sombra. He had not became king yet, and was still an immature, bad-ass prince of darkness.

He whispers out of the shadows and opens his eyes, of which were still red. “Welcome back into the shadows, my princess of the night.”

I blush a bit, and reply back softly “Oh, and such a warm greeting, thou agrees?"

“Your language even confuses me somewhat.” he mumbles, looking at me. I give him a stern look. “but I can live with it!” he quickly adds.

We start walking off, him walking beside my in the darkness. It was around 8pm, so it was still early for me. I had already lifted up the moon before I left. We get to a small lake, and he stops us there, leading me to a bench that stood alone under an oak tree. I get up onto it, while he goes over to the river bank to collect something.

He walks back to me with a moon flower, it’s blueness reflecting my mane. I blush a bright red, and he does a bit too. “for you, Luna” he levitates it out from his mouth, and puts it into my hair, right above my ear. “aww.. You didn’t need to..” I reply, forgetting my royal Canterlot voice. “well, I suppose we could do without the voice, tonight” he gets up next to me, and nuzzles my mane.

That night had changed how I looked at many things after.

All because of a simple little question.


Sombra stops nuzzling my mane and decides to make things clear.

“Luna, dearest… I was wondering something…” I look at him. “yes?” I ask. “would you do the honors… of becoming my queen?”

I gasped, as he brings out a ring and a beautiful crown.

“I- I- I don’t know what to say… I- I- I’m too.. I’m too young to accept..” I mumble, it all hitting me. He loved me all this time, and I took it as a friendly gesture. “I suppose, I could be your fillyfriend for the meantime…”

He sighs and blushes, putting away the ring and the crown. “I went.. A bit too fast on that… too early…. Didn’t I?”

“Uhh… it seems so.. The crown.. It looks lovely..” he looks at me and brings it out again.

“would you like to wear it this one night?” he asks “for me?”

I smile and nod my head. “yes, I will. For you.”

I luckily had no jewelry on that night. So I put the crown on my head, and rest my head on his shoulder. “it’s lovely.”

I was due to go into my new form, my final, adult form.

Only then could i really decide things for myself.

We stay in the same position the rest of the night, looking at my moon.
