A/N: Alright, just in time for Valentine's Day, I give you the next chapter. Well, for Valentine's Day I would prefer to call it Forever Alone Day. It's just simply to remind of how I'll never be able to have a girlfriend even though everybody tells me that even though the holiday is love-related, it's also about friendship. But I however still have some respect for the holiday. I'll continue to call it "Forever Alone Day" since it's my own opinion on what I think of the holiday. Alright, now that I got that out of my system, review response time!

XXXGHOSTXXX123: Ha, gotcha there didn't I?

Owldusk: Thank you for the comment. If I have time, I'll check out the story.

Summer time 10101: More? You got it! Another chapter just for you!

godzillafan1: Indeed he does in this chapter. Nightmare Moon returning? That is less likely to happen since only that fraction of her remains to make dreams into nightmares. I'm still going to keep it as a possible answer that Nightmare Moon may or may not return. But I am also thinking of getting the changelings involved at one point later on in the story, I'm not going to tell when since it'll be a surprise.

P.S. In others news, I've seen the episodes "Pinkie Pride" and "Simple Ways". I thought Pinkie Pride was epic with the appearance of Weird Al Yankovic. For Simple Ways, it's a good episode. Not the best episode, just good. I am excited for "Filli Vanilli" next, but I have to miss out on the livestream since I have to go skiing all day somewhere. But don't you worry, I'll be able to hopefully find it on YouTube when I get home without even looking at a single spoiler. Also one more thing, should I have a longer chapter around 10,000 - 20,000? Review this chapter if I should do it at one point. The song in this chapter is from Quest For Camelot's "Looking Through Your Eyes".

---

I slowly open my eyes to the orange sunlight that shone through the bright glass window. The vision as usual, is blurred at first after waking up with the sun in my eyes every time. It clears and I take a look to my right. The sun is positioned over near the western horizon of Equestria and near its point of setting the day and proceeding into night time. I turn my head to the left from the window and into the room that I'm in.

I was in Twilight's home, remembering that earlier she had saved me from death and a poison that would have possibly killed me anyway. But if it was one thing I could forget, it was her giving me a friendly nuzzle after saving me. Fluttershy was trying to tell me to confess my true feelings towards her, but it didn't work out fast enough since Twilight told me to rest for a few hours. It did seem like a few hours passed by, and Twilight said that she would talk to me this evening. It did get me on suspicion that she possibly could have liked me in the same way I did. Would she be taking me out to dinner tonight?

A flash of white surrounds the room near me, making me jump a bit and my eyes turn and look to see the slightly large draconequus that I knew as the used to be master of chaos, Discord. He looked down at me, with a smile on his face. He went forward towards me and like a snake, his head moved around my head.

"Oh, how is little Brayden here doing this evening?" Discord said, in his teasing voice. I just rolled my eyes in annoyance, knowing that he wasn't that reformed and was just trying to irritate me.

"I'm doing fine, but I'm not fine that you're here to probably annoy me." I said with him looking a bit shocked at first, but he continues to pull a smile.

Discord changed his form into a miniature version of himself on Twilight's bed. "I was hoping that you'd greet me in a much happier fashion Brayden. I'm not that evil anymore, but still love to fool around." He said, walking on the two different legs of his. "I've been hearing a lot about you today. Princess Twilight really seems a care a lot about your safety doesn't she?"

"That's none of your business Discord." I said, turning to the other side of the bed to try and ignore him. Discord just snaps his eagle claw finger and teleports with a flash in front of me.

"Don't you worry about it Brayden. Fluttershy pretty much told me all about how you are in love with her and would like to tell Twilight your true feelings to her." Discord said, he snaps his finger again and makes a thermometer appear. This is a different kind that shows how much I love Princess Twilight and the red bar is at the top with canned applause that he also summoned.

"Didn't everypony already tell me that they knew about that secret?" I said, getting my arms out from under the sheets. I placed my arms around behind my head and lay back on the bed.

"Well, I want to help you in a way." Discord said. I watched him snap a finger again and in his hand from a small white flash, were fresh-picked roses. "You could give her these to show how much you care for Princess Twilight in return."

"I don't know, Discord." I said, turning myself slowly to the side in doubt that the roses could work and would possibly give away my secret to Twilight.

Discord waved the roses in front of my face and moved his head quite close to me, he chuckled lightly. "Come on, it's not like Twilight will be mad if you do. I'm just also trying to make friends with you as well."

"Well Discord, if you want to be my friend... You could just give me and Twilight some private time together, I would appreciate it, but I can have some use for the roses." I said, taking the roses out of his eagle claw. "These roses better not be a trick to tick off Twilight and have her put the blame on me… cause if they are…"

"Oh relax Brayden. You always predict the worst in times when I'm around." Discord said, wrapping his eagle claw around me. "What kind of friend would I be if I did something like that? I obviously am trying to help you get together with Twilight as your special somepony."

"Oh that's ridiculous, there's no way the one and only Discord could be…" I said, in a sarcastic tone until I froze for a moment realizing what Discord told me. "…helping me?"

"Well, it's about time you finally opened your eyes to see that I'm not that evil," Discord said, teleporting in front of me, he was also wearing a costume of a Cupid lookalike. "If I wanted to make the roses into a prank, I still would have not been reformed by Fluttershy and-"

"Alright Discord, I get it. But once again, thank you for bringing the roses. I'm sure that Twilight will appreciate me for giving these to her." I said, placing my hand on Discord's shoulder and giving it a pat.

Discord chuckles lightly, and turns around to the window. He says "Well, glad to see that I've made some friendship with you. Now if you'll excuse me, somepony that I know needs to see me in a few minutes."

"Are you always in a big hurry Discord?" I said, crossing my hands and giving a funny smirk. "Cause we only get to briefly talk."

Discord turns back and says "Even a busy draconequus has to have a tight schedule." He finally snaps his finger and a giant white flash fills the room, forcing me to cover my eyes with my right hand. The flash seemed to come by quickly, and moved my right hand out of my face.

After Discord vanished to go and visit… well Fluttershy perhaps, I carefully look at the red roses in my other hand and look at it with thoughts moving in my head. "I'm not sure, will Twilight be enlighted or just tell me off for even having to give these to her in the first place? I want this night to be the night I tell her, but what if it doesn't work out, I-" I thought before the sound of hooves interrupted.

The hooves were heard coming up from the stairs and I could suspect that it was probably Applejack coming to see me and wondering how I was doing. The recognizable mulberry color comes into my view and I see Twilight coming up the steps into the open bedroom. She opened her fuzzy wings and flew upward on the inside balcony where her bed was laying down. She closed her wings and trotted towards me.

"Did you rest well, Brayden?" Twilight said. She trots over to the right side of the bed and begins to check on my injury that was covered up by the bandage.

"I did, Twilight." I looked at her, saying. "But… what are you also doing up-"

Twilight gasped softly when she saw the red roses in my left hand. Her horn lights up, and the red roses levitate out of my hand completely with the aura of Twilight's magic surrounding it. "These roses… are they for me?" She asks me, looking at me.

I nod lightly, knowing that this would happen as soon as she saw them. Twilight smiled at me and said "Thank you Brayden. I would suspect somepony as nice as you would give out roses."

I watch her place the roses onto her nightstand and she turns me, keeping that smile. "Anyways, what did you come here for?" I ask, still wondering about her checking on my bandage.

"Well, I was wondering… I know we've only talked a few times and had our differences, but would you like to go to dinner with me?" Twilight asks me, and has a look of good patience and understanding.

I thought about it, she'd understand if I rejected the invitation… but at the same time. It would feel like I was rejecting any girl that asked me out when I was back on Earth and when I attempted to ask me back after rejecting them, they would already have a boyfriend and claimed they were just playing with me. I just let out a soft, inaudible sigh and say "Yes Twilight. I'll come with you."

Twilight extended her left hoof to help me off of her bed. I look at it for a moment and then place my right hand on her soft hoof. I gently hold onto it, while pushing myself lightly and her gently pulling me from her bed. After being pulled upward to balance, I'm still holding onto Twilight's soft hoof while we're both locked in a gaze. This gaze only lasted a few moments, since Twilight let go of my hand and her cheeks were a bit pink.

"So what do you have in mind for dinner?" I said, after the blushing had disappeared off Twilight.

She keeps her smile and says "Well, I think we'll go to that outdoor restaurant. Then, after we're done… I want to show you something that I need you to see."

Something I needed to see? Did she happen to have feelings for me as well and wanted to confess them to me? Nevertheless, I nodded and said "Well, what you'll show me is probably that 'important' after all Princess." I said in a sort of flirting tone.

Another blush came upon Twilight's cheeks and I'm just giggling lightly. She sighs in a happy tone and says "Come on now Brayden. Dinner can't wait forever."

"Alright Twilight, I'm coming." I said, walking beside her when we're trotting down the wooden steps. The steps downstairs were in the circular carved tunnel from what I remember when I first came to her home upstairs. Her horn starts to glow and I could hear the front door of her home opening by the sound of the golden doorknob. I come into view of the library on the main floor when walking normally down the wooden steps.

Me and her start walking together out of the library and she closes the front door to her library behind us with her magic no doubt. I could hear the sound of the lock on the door setting to be secured. The glowing on her alicorn horn disappears. I just walk forward with her by my right side and begin to move through the now-peaceful town.

Everything seemed so peaceful with the sunset in motion. Most of the Ponyville folk had already bustled up their shops to close for the night and the local restaurants were kept open for the sweet smell of dinner to be served. A few of the ponies in their homes were already making supper for the children and themselves. The smell of fresh mashed potatoes and hot gravy were filling the air from where I was breathing. "Somepony must be cooking up mashed potatoes." Twilight said.

I turned to look at her with a smirk on my face. "I was going to say the same thing." I said, with a tone of joking. I feel the need to attempt to have her feel comfortable, and gently put my hand around Twilight. She must have flinched a bit by surprise, but when she turned and saw me she felt a little more relaxed and seemed to give a happy sigh.

I continued to walk alongside her with my arm gently around to comfort her, even though she was already happy. But inside, I felt like my heart was skipping many beats to say that I might have won her. But I wasn't so sure, I was very nervous at the same time. I have been nervous many times back on Earth when it came to a girl that I had developed a crush on.

The restaurant had come into view and it was the same building where me and Pinkie had lunch together when I came to see her. There was a different waiter though standing by the entrance, which I didn't seem to mind. I moved my arm off of Twilight to avoid suspicion that I was possibly on a date with the princess, even though I would love to. Me and Twilight steadily approach the waiter. He looks down at the both of us, furrowing his curious eyebrows.

"May I help you two?" The waiter says in an accent that I could recall hearing back on Earth as an American accent.

Twilight looks at me and says "Don't worry Brayden, I'll get us settled," and gives me a small smile. She turns to the waiter, just waiting patiently. "Just a table for two of us please."

The waiter nods his head in understanding and both of us begin to slowly pick up the speed to follow the waiter around into the restaurant outside. I observe to see the other townsfolk eating away at tonight's special with the smell of potatoes illuminating the air. I could see a few of the ponies I knew in town chatting to one another at the separate tables. A few that I knew as Berry Punch, Minuette and of course… everyone in the brony fan base knew her, Derpy Hooves.

The fact that Derpy Hooves' eyes were always crossed seemed to fascinate me. I started to even wonder how she got them in the first place. Maybe it was… never mind, I'm not even going to go into that joke with the meme. But Derpy overall is one of my favorite ponies, even though I haven't talked to her once yet. She always seemed busy with the mail, but I'll make sure that I say hello to her.

Me and Twilight arrive at our table, and the waiter kindly pulls out the chairs to help us take a seat on the comfortable iron chairs with red pillows on the seats. I lower down to take a seat and could feel the soft pillows below. I watch Twilight to see her take a seat next to me.

"Can I both start you off with a drink?" The waiter asked. I turned from Twilight and took a look at the calm stallion.

I thought of my choice of drink to be one of my favorite drinks on occasion, and said "Yes, I think I'll have Apple Cider."

"I'll have a glass of water." I heard Twilight say. The waiter nods in understanding and trots off to go and get our drinks. I turn to look at Twilight and she says "I'm just ordering water for the occasion. Everypony seems to always order it during meals, so I guess I'm used to that."

"I'm standing out. Anypony could see me different because I'm ordering Apple Cider for dinner, which there isn't anything wrong with." I said, sounding a bit proud and confident.

Twilight scooted closer beside me and said "I'm also curious about your past. Would you like to tell me all about it?"

I look down sadly when she asked me this. "I don't really want to talk about it. You wouldn't understand why I was so sad." I said, trying to forget the past.

"Brayden, please… tell me. I'll help you and understand." Twilight said, placing her soft right hoof onto my hands. I slowly turn to look at her, she seemed to have a look of caring about me. I just softly sigh to give my attention to what she offered.

"Well, it was back on Earth. Most of the people I knew were anti-bronies and hated you guys. I tried to stand up for myself, but they'd always keep me down," I said sadly. "It's why whenever someone tells me that you or any of your other friends are stupid, it hurts me deep inside."

Twilight listened in, opening up her right wing and wrapping it around me. Her face seemed to look sad, but also felt a little sorry for me about what I was going through.

"They'd all say things to try and hopefully get me angry, such as saying they were going to punch you in the face." I said in a sad tone. Twilight softly gasps and looks very worried about me.

"And what happened?" Twilight asked.

"Well, at one point they got a little over the top on the insults and I felt like I was going to cry. They stated to think that bronies like me were gay. But me, I'm not. Though there is a few in that world, but with the statement of rights being sent out to respect them." I said.

"Brayden… that- that must have been hard to deal with." Twilight said. She gently pulls me closer to her with her right wing. I lean forward and wrap my arms carefully around her back, sharing with her a comforting hug. Her left hoof is around my waist and giving me a gentle rub on the back. My hand reaches up to the back of her mane and gently giving it soft strokes.

"It's no problem. The past is the past, it's not like I can go back and change it." I said, not even wanting to use a scroll and travel backwards through time just like Twilight did in "It's About Time". The only difference was that it was all for nothing.

After a bit of time, me and Twilight let go of the hug. She moves her right wing from me and folds it back closed. Both of us just continue to look at each other and blink. Without even looking, I could see that one of her hooves was open for me to try and hold onto. I slowly move my left hand towards her right hoof. I could feel the warmth of the hoof upon contact of it with my hand, gently grabbing it in hopes of being gentle to Twilight.

The waiter came by at this moment and remained rather silent during the moment with only me and Twilight. He just simply places the drinks down on the table, snapping us out of the gaze and to the waiter. He seems to have a small smile on his face, but remains rather calm. "Now, can I get the both of you something to eat?"

I cleared my throat and gained my focus back onto dinner. "Uh yes, I'll have the special of tonight which is the Mashed Potatoes and Gravy." I said, watching the waiter write it down.

"I'll have what he's having." Twilight said, sounding happy and calm. The waiter writes it down and trots off back into the building to make our food.

The stars were starting to appear one by one in the sky as slowly as they did, even back on Earth. I could see the shine of Luna's moon beginning to rise up over the eastern horizon of Equestria, it was as beautiful as they had pictured it in the show. "It's a beautiful night for a walk…" I said, not knowing that Twilight was listening to me.

"Yes, a walk together." Twilight said, since she did hear the seven words that I said.

I slowly turn around back to Twilight and said "By the way… this thing you wanted to show me… where is it?"

Twilight looked at me and placed her warm left hoof on my hand. "It's a view from the great lake of Ponyville. It's a sight for many to see." She said, sounding very informative.

"Have your duties as a princess being doing well, Twilight?" I asked, trying to engage in a topic to not look so socially awkward like her.

Twilight's eyebrows furrowed a bit, but she kept her smile and said "My duties? They've being doing really good and I have confidence to balance my time with my friends and my duties."

"I've also somewhat thought of myself as a prince, but I'm not royalty. It's fine for me to not be royalty though." I said, seeing how being royal could be a bit overrated.

Twilight said "There's nothing wrong with that. It's called being yourself. It's what you were given."

I was reminded once again of the gift that I had. "Yeah, autism. I was born with it and I still have it, I can't really get rid of it." I said, feeling a bit down.

"Autism?" Twilight asked, curious about the disabilities humans can get.

"Autism can make a person think differently, such as getting smarter and various other objectives that they can solve. But to me, I would consider it a curse… I don't know why it was given to me." I said, still feeling a bit down.

"It was given to you for a special purpose. Maybe you were chosen to have that so you could possibly try and let go of the negatives that it was feeding you." Twilight said, looking into my eyes.

I was enlightened by her words and softly smiled at her for telling me the best advice she could give. "Is there any other gifts from your world that has affected others?" She asks, staying on topic.

"Well, I have heard of Bipolar, which a person could have mood swings. But there's probably nopony here in Equestria that has probably heard of that or has that?" I said, starting to raise question to Twilight.

Twilight placed her right hoof on her chin and began to think for a moment. "Hmm, maybe Cheerilee knows about these gifts." She says, placing her right hoof back down.

"I ended up thinking I was an average normal boy the whole time, but I never seemed to make any friends whatsoever until high school." I said, reflecting back on the past.

"Don't worry about the past Brayden. I'm here for you." Twilight said, placing her left hoof onto my right shoulder. "Even Fluttershy is there for you as a best friend."

"Thanks Twilight." I said, feeling a little better about the topic of friends to see somepony caring for me just like a real friend should.

I turn to look at the ponies eating away at their meals. The waiter was holding up a tray of two plates that had our orders on it on his head. I grab the mug of Apple Cider and take a sip to watch the food arrive at our table.

The waiter trots up to our table and lowers his head, placing the tray of two plates onto the table. "Here's your food. If you want to right now, you can pay for the two meals." The waiter says, in his calm and happy voice.

"Sure, let me just get out the-" Twilight said, before I placed my hand onto her back softly, catching her attention. She stops talking and looks at me to listen to what I would say.

"Twilight, I'll pay for our meal. I have to always pay for the fair lady and princess, otherwise it's just not being appreciable to other mares." I said, reaching into my pocket with my other hand. Twilight nods and smiles. I turn to the waiter and ask "How many bits, sir?"

"Four bits total." The waiter says, waiting patiently for the pay.

I reach into the bag of bits in my pocket and take out the four golden bits of currency. I hand it to the waiter and place it on his open hoof. The waiter keeps his smile and nods as a statement to say 'thank you' and trots off to deal with the other guests in the restaurant.

"Well, what are you waiting for, Brayden? Let's dig in." Twilight said to me with a soft giggle. I turn to look at my plate of mashed potatoes and I proceed to grab the small cup of gravy and pour it onto the meal.

The brown-colored gravy begins flowing through the mashed potatoes like a river quickly gliding through the hillside. I place down the cup of gravy and take the fork in my hand. I grab a scoop of the yellow potatoes and open my mouth placing the food in, and closing my mouth. It was so delicious and warm. I've had these back on Earth, but here… they were just as twelve times better.

---

Our meals were finished within a few minutes tops and I'm sitting there with leftover mashed potatoes on my face a bit, I take the paper napkin on my lap and begin wiping it clean. After a few wipes, I take a look on Twilight's water glass. My face looked very clean and tidy.

Twilight had just about finished her meal, and I'm guessing that she must have learned to eat just like a princess from possibly Rarity. Because you know her and being in the status of a unicorn, she wanted to stay royal and careful on her tidiness, which explained why Rarity didn't want to get her hooves dirty.

"That was delicious." Twilight said, wiping her face with her napkin.

"Just like back on Earth, except twelve times better!" I said, happily.

Twilight let out a giggle and places her right hoof onto my left hand, making me feel warm and causing me to blush lightly. I could swear that she must have been giving me an obvious look that could tell that she possibly had a crush on me as well.

"Well, are you ready for the view?" Twilight said to me while I was locked in the gaze with her.

"Yeah…" I said, sounding a bit dazed, but happy.

Twilight giggles softly and takes my hand. I get up off the chair and begin to hold onto her soft hoof. Me and Twilight trotted out of the outdoor restaurant and by the speed we were moving together, it seemed to be slow. She must have caught on about me after all.

I can't help but keep gazing at her while holding onto her hoof. Everything about Twilight, she was so beautiful as I originally thought at the end of the series premiere. Her personality was sort of like mine, but other bronies on Earth said I would kind of fit more like Rainbow Dash in personality.

She kept on a lovely smile while both of us walked together out of Ponyville and into the trails. I could hear the crickets chirping softly that was filling in the night with the sound of frogs in the distant to fill in with the crickets' song. An owl's hoot from the trees would occasionally come in at the times of the soft sounds being distant.

I could feel my bare feet on the dirt path when walking forward at the slow rate of speed. The dirt on the ground was dry and did not make any spots on the bottom of my feet.

"There it is…" I hear Twilight say, and I turn from her to look and see the view come in through my eyesight. It seemed really beautiful. The lake shone a rare blue in the night with the moon's reflection lingering over and rippling. There were no boats on the lake with the exception of two ducks just swimming together in a bonding.

"Wow Twilight… it's amazing." I said, when looking out at the view. I don't see Twilight move away from me to sit on the bench a few feet away, with the exception of me hearing her hooves trotting on the ground and her sitting.

I turn around after a few seconds to see Twilight sitting there on the bench waiting for me to join her again. I slowly walk up to the bench and bend down to take a seat. I then turn and look at Twilight with her hooves open to hold onto gently. She seems to be giving me a shy kind of smile.

Something catches my eye past Twilight moving in the bushes quietly and I could see Pinkie Pie poking her head out of the bushes. A medium-sized piece of paper slowly moves in from the side of the bush with two big words. I focus a bit closer on what the words were trying to tell me. "Tell her" is what the words say on the paper.

I turn back to Twilight, and she has a different kind of smile now, it was more of a gazing romantic look in her eyes when she was focused on me. "Well, better get the truth out now while I still can…" I thought to myself, and let out a quiet and happy sigh.

"Twilight…" I asked in question to get her attention. I was going to do it… I was going to tell her my true feelings towards her. I move both my left and right hands to Twilight's hooves and gently hold onto them.

"Yes Brayden?" Twilight asks me, smiling.

"I… I thought I'd let you know that you are the most beautiful, and amazing pony I have ever met. Nopony could ever replace you." I said, sounding a bit nervous. Twilight's cheeks began to glow pink with a big smile on her face, probably the best blush that I've ever seen from her since "Boast Busters" and "The Crystal Empire – Part 2".

"Why… why thank you Brayden," Twilight says to me, sounding rather happy and relieved. She scoots up closer to me and gently strokes my hands with her gentle, soft hooves. "But why would you say that at this moment?"

I gulped and the upper part of my teeth was biting down on my bottom lip, I didn't know what I was going to say to her. "Just say it, Brayden! You don't want her to trot away!" My thoughts were telling me at quite an alarming rate.

After the thoughts kept telling me, I lowered my head and sighed. I'm not even looking in Twilight's eyes for what would come out next. She would just continue to look at me with her beautiful violet eyes that shone like a rare diamond anyone would come across. She was that rare diamond to me.

"It's… well… It's because I… I have a crush on you Twilight since I first saw you…" I softly said to myself, but at a good volume that she could hear me say what I needed to say.

All seemed silent except for the soft noises in the night that continued. I slowly look up at Twilight's face and she had a look of both surprise and happiness. Twilight moved her right hoof from my left hand and gently placed it onto my left cheek. She softly caressed it.

"Brayden… I don't know what to say. I'm very proud of you to tell me this." Twilight said.

I gently move my other hand from her other hoof and move it to the back of her head, gently stroking her soft and silky mane. Now both of our eyes are locked on one another and the both of us move forward for a moment.

"I'm not sure that it'll work out." I said, having my doubt that the relationship between me and her would last.

Twilight used her other hoof and moved my head back up to have me look in her eyes. "Don't talk like that Brayden. Since you've arrived, you've been really kind to all my friends and been helping to comfort them." Twilight said, her face being a bit close to mine. "To me, you are a stallion prince, even though you are human."

I gently smile at her, cheered up by her words. I move my face forward and share a gentle nuzzle with her, rubbing our cheeks gently together. The gentle nuzzle lasted for a few moments, and when it seemed we let go, it started to get better. We both gazed into each other's eyes romantically, and I felt like I was in heaven. Twilight opens up her wings and puts them around me. What happens next would be the best memory that I would remember for all-time.

Her wings pushed me forward a bit during our gaze, and my closed mouth moved forward towards Twilight's mouth and both of our lips were locked together with my eyes openly surprised. She was giving me the very first kiss. I slowly close my eyes shut and begin to share the kiss with her. I could already feel my heart pounding happily from the inside.

The kiss lasted about twenty seconds, and both of us open our eyes to let go. Both me and Twilight were romantically giggling at one another. "The kiss… it felt magical and sparkling." I said to Twilight, still having my arms around her.

"You know what Brayden, I think I developed feelings for you too." Twilight said, happily.

"You did?" I asked.

"When you were on the verge of dying from the timberwolves, I realized that I cared about you and your safety. If I lost you… it wouldn't be the same." Twilight said.

I gently give Twilight's left ear a soft stroke and said "If you were hurt, I don't know what I'd do. I'm willing to protect you and keep you safe for what may try to hurt and kill you."

I'm looking into her eyes. I can see heaven inside her. It was like I was chosen to fall in love with Twilight from above. I softly sigh and move my hand closer down to her cheeks, gently caressing it softly to be gentle. I felt the need to sing to her, I took a breath slowly and silently in.

Look at the sky

Tell me what do you see

Just close your eyes

And describe it to me

The heavens are sparkling

With starlight tonight

That's what I see

Through your eyes

Twilight smiled with me while I sang softly to her and could see take a quick breath in. She was going to sing with me as well. It was becoming a romantic duet.

I see the heavens each time that you smile

I hear your heartbeat just go on for miles

And suddenly I know why life is worthwhile

That's what I see through your eyes

That's what I see through your eyes

I slowly take her hoof and begin to just gaze into her eyes and could feel myself being lifted up off the ground with her. She was starting to flap her wings and fly. Both of us began to look at each other romantically during the soft flight through the night sky, holding on together and continued to duet.

Here in the night, I see the sun

Here in the dark, our two hearts are one

It's out of our hands, we can't stop what we have begun

And love just took me by surprise, looking through your eyes

I see a night I wish could last forever

I see a world we're meant to see together

And it is so much more than I remember

More than I remember

More than I have known

Here in the night, I see the sun

Here in the dark, our two hearts are one

It's out of our hands, we can't stop what we have begun

And love just took me by surprise, looking through your eyes

Looking through your eyes

Both of us began to slow down our flight and Twilight flapped her wings while flying us down back towards the ground. I could feel my feet softly land back on the dirt path. I turned to my left to see that the both of us had arrived at Fluttershy's cottage.

"I had a wonderful night, Brayden." Twilight said to me, putting her forehead on mine. I gently share this moment with her just closing my eyes. We let go after a few moments and turn to see Fluttershy at the door, smiling.

"Twilight?" I asked, looking back at her.

"Yes Brayden?" She replies back to me, smiling.

"I was wondering… would you be my special somepony?" I said, taking and holding her right hoof.

Twilight giggled and said "I was going to ask you the same thing, but… sure! I'll be your special somepony."

I gently pull her into a romantic hug with my arms around her neck and Twilight had both of her hooves around me along with her wings. We share the hug for a few moments. By how I saw Fluttershy, she seemed to look quite proud of me for what I must have said to Twilight tonight.

Twilight lets go of the romantic hug as well as me and says "Well, it is starting to get late. But I'll see you sometime Brayden." She plants a small kiss on my lips, and keeps a happy smile while turning around and trotting off.

I watch her as she leaves in the distance. I could see a heavenly glow around Twilight while she gets more far from the area. Once she is gone, I sigh romantically. I turn to my left and start heading up the small path to Fluttershy's cottage.

"Did you tell her your feelings?" Fluttershy asked me with a happy and still shy tone.

I looked at the blur of mulberry trotting off in the distance from the hill and smiled. "Yeah, I did. Best night ever."

Fluttershy pulled me into one of her soft and friendly hugs and was saying "Oh my goodness! I just don't know what to say. I'm very proud of you for telling her your feelings."

I returned the hug back, gently wrapping my arms around her in a friendly way. "Thank you Fluttershy, I had to do it when I could. I just couldn't let her trot away and leave me in the friend zone like that."

"Friend zone?" She asked.

"Just a term back on Earth." I said, giving a smart look on my face. I could feel my arms needing a stretch and I softly yawn while taking the stretch of the arms.

"Are you tired?" Fluttershy says, seeing the tired look and smile on my face.

I turn my head towards her and nod slightly. "Yeah. I'm going to get some rest now." I said, walking forward and opening the front door, heading into Fluttershy's cottage.

"Have a good sleep Brayden. Don't let the parasprites bite." Fluttershy said to me while I walked up towards the stairs. I stop for a moment and turn to Fluttershy.

"I will. You have a good night as well Fluttershy." I said to her. I walk up the stairs quietly to try and not wake up the animals sleeping inside the cottage.

I walk up the stairs and can see the guest room immediately to my left. It was the room where I was sleeping in. I walk into the room and gently close the door behind that was already open for me. I walk up slowly to my bed feeling exhausted from the day and evening. I flop myself onto the bed and take a breath. I slowly begin to close my eyes until it was only all black I could see.

Tomorrow will probably be another successful day for me. But this evening… totally worth it. Other than the Timberwolves attacking me in the afternoon. I just hope nothing would come up like that again.

I'll see you again tomorrow morning, Equestria.
