Twilight stood there with an unamused look, water dripping off her body. After a moment of brooding, she shook her head violently. Most of the water trapped in her soaked mane came loose as she shook her head. A barrage of water droplets flew through the air, landing on Rainbow Dash and the cloud floor. Twilight let out a low grumble when she took notice of Rainbow Dash trying not to laugh. “Is this your idea of payback?”

“You knew it was raining outside when you decided to come,” Dash said playfully.

“I did, but that really wasn’t at the top of my list of things to worry about…” Twilight replied. “It also didn’t help that you snatched me up off the ground after I cast the spell, and brought me up here without any kind of warning.” She stood there, shaking slightly from the chill of the night air against her soaked fur.

“You’re shivering…” Rainbow Dash remarked.

Before Twilight could even respond, the pegasus had vanished inside her house, leaving Twilight alone on the balcony. She took a look around the fluffy terrace, finding it odd. The balcony was large, about as big as Twilight’s room in fact. The walls were sculpted to look like old architecture from the pre-classical era, matching pillars from that time perfectly. Except the building material was cloud instead of stone like she had seen.

Now that Twilight took a look at Rainbow Dash’s house, the whole theme seemed to be the old building style she had seen in books. Thinking back, even Cloudsdale kept with this theme. Big archways, sculpted pillars, and vaulted ceilings persisted through the design of the house. Everything about it just felt so grand.

Inside the doorway she disappeared through was Dash’s bedroom—clearly marked by the Wonderbolts posters she had on the walls. It was almost sad how much they completely clashed with the classical architecture her cloud home was modeled after. But Twilight hadn’t expected anything less from her friend’s bedroom. She smiled a bit to herself.

“I think this is the first time you’ve been up here,” the pegasus said, reappearing through the doorway. Over her back she had a towel, and one draped over her head. She slid the one on her back off, and hoofed it to Twilight.

“I think it is too. Little hard to stop by for a visit when you need a spell and a balloon to get here.” Twilight chuckled a bit. She took the towel in her magic, and dried her dripping mane. The soft fabric felt good against her fur. It felt warm and welcoming to her as it freed her from her chilly, wet torment.

“So what do you think?” she asked with a tilt of her head.

“I’ve seen the outside before.” Twilight laughed a bit.

“I’m not talking about my house. Turn around.” Rainbow Dash Walked up to Twilight and guided the unicorn so she would turn to face out to Ponyville.

The view from the veranda quite literally took her breath away. Twilight’s eyes went wide as she walked cautiously to the railing. She stepped carefully, almost scared that what she was seeing would disappear if she approached too quickly. In an instant the worries of her mind fell by the wayside. She timidly placed her hoof on the cloud banister, truly able to grasp the beauty she was seeing now that it filled her view.

This was the first time Twilight had seen above the rain clouds before. It was almost magical how the night sky hung delicately above the cloud line. It was so serene and beautiful—ghost-like when compared to the ground below. The pale glow of the full moon gave a sense of peace as it cast its silvery light onto the tops of each cloud. Stars twinkled in the sky—though a sight she was accustomed to—she now felt so close to them, like she was equal to their impossible height.

Twilight’s eyes fell downward. Under the storm clouds, the rain was falling onto a darkened Ponyville. It was almost like watching two worlds at once. Two worlds unable to touch one another, separated by a thin veil of clouds. Solemn darkness, filled with turbulent storms, and above, serene peace, filled with calming, gentle light.

Dash took a few steps towards Twilight, a confident smile resting on her face. She placed a hoof over her friend, pulling her in close. “I thought you’d like this. Kinda hit me when we got up here, and I was hoping me getting some towels wouldn’t ruin it for you.”

“Oh my goodness,” Twilight said only a little louder than a whisper. “Dash, do you see this every night it rains?” Twilight asked turning her head, but still keeping her eyes focused on Ponyville.

“Pretty much.”

“It’s beautiful…” Twilight remarked.

“Why don’t we sit down out here so we can watch it then?” Rainbow suggested, rubbing the towel furiously against her mane. When she took the towel off her head, she shook back and forth a few times. After a few tosses of her mane, it was resting on her head in the same rough way it usually looked.

“We’re supposed to be talking, not just sitting here enjoying the sights.” Twilight sighed. A sudden rush of all the worries that had slipped her mind came rushing back. “And we have a lot to talk about too…” Twilight muttered.

“Yeah…” Rainbow Dash looked to the floor. The two stood silent for a moment, neither knowing where to start. Twilight stared off into the distance, looking past the beauty before her. Seconds turned to minutes without a single word said between them.

Finally, Twilight swallowed down the lump hanging in her throat, and opened her mouth to speak. “I should probably start by apologizing.” Twilight paused for a short breath. “I’m sorry, Rainbow Da—”

“Stop…Twilight, you don’t need to say you’re sorry. This is as much my fault as it is yours,” the pegasus interrupted. She let out a sigh, turning away from her friend’s gaze. She stared out at the distant ground for a moment. Her wings fidgeted as she carefully chose her words. “You might’ve cast the spell, but I could’ve done a lot of things to stop this. I could’ve pulled out, I could’ve used a condom or something, I don’t know…It’s not fair to say this was all on you though…”

Twilight wrapped her forelegs around Rainbow Dash pulling her in for a hug. “I was so worried you would hate me,” she said trying to hold back her tears.

“I don’t hate you, Twi. I told you that earlier today.” Rainbow Dash tentatively placed a foreleg around Twilight, hugging her back. Both of their fur still felt a little damp to the touch, but it still felt nice. Their body heat warmed one another from the cold rain and night air they had just run through, what seemed like only a few minutes ago.

“I was still scared you would, though…” Twilight pulled away. her cheeks flushed a little red as she tried to cover a small sniffle. “I was scared that maybe while you were thinking, you came to the conclusion that I ruined your life…”

“No, it’s just…I couldn’t even begin to grasp what you were telling me earlier today. I mean, I’m a mare…You coming up and telling me I got you pregnant just…didn’t register it was so unexpected. I had to go through and let the idea sink in a bit before we really started talking about it.” Rainbow Dash let out a small chuckle. “Can’t say it’s sunk in anymore than earlier today though…”

“It is a lot to take in. We’re going to have a filly together after all…” Twilight sounded distant. Her eyes glazed over as she sunk into her depressing thoughts once more.

“How do you know we’re going to have a filly? You got a spell that can tell if it’s a filly or colt?” Dash asked, pulling Twilight back to the conversation.

“No.” She shook her head, dismissing the notion as ridiculous. “Even magic can’t tell this early. But there wasn’t a stallion involved, so it will be a filly. That’s how this spell works.” Twilight frowned a bit.

“Kind of hard to imagine me as a mom…or a…dad?”

“Whichever you prefer. You sired her, so I suppose that would technically make you the dad, but since you’re a female, a case could be made for you being her mother as well.” Twilight explained, though it seemed to go over the pegasus’s head. She stepped next to Dash and lied down on the ground, motioning for her to join her.

“Dad I guess will do…” she said lying down next to her friend.

The two lay silent for a moment. Rainbow Dash found herself staring at the night sky, while Twilight looked to the puffy floor. Her hoof tapped silently against the soft material as she contemplated. “You know…there are other options…” Twilight said, interrupting the silence.

“What do you mean? Like adoption?” The remark pulled Dash’s attention from her stargazing.

“There’s that, but there are also more drastic measures…” Twilight refused to look up from the floor.

“You mean like…an abortion?”

Twilight silently nodded. Her eyes weighed heavy just thinking about it.

Rainbow Dash found herself looking to the stars again. Silence filled the air between the two of them once more. Twilight sat quietly, waiting for her friend to answer. She knew that this was the most drastic measure possible—an option she, herself didn‘t want to resort to. But if Rainbow Dash wanted it, she wouldn’t disagree. This wasn‘t a decision she could or would make alone. She knew from the start that whatever Rainbow Dash wanted to do, she would go with. This was how she would make it up to her friend for her carelessness.

Rainbow Dash finally looked back to Twilight. “No…I don’t think I’m okay with that…” she said softly. Her voice held a heavy weight inside it.

“I was hoping you would say that…” Twilight sighed a bit in relief.

“It just doesn’t sit right with me…”

“What are we going to do then?” Twilight asked. Her head weakly looked back to Dash. Tears started to build in her eyes. Uncertainty, fear, disappointment in herself all boiled up inside her, ready to burst.

“We could give it a shot…” Dash suggested.

“R-raise a foal? The two of us?”

“We got time, don’t we? I mean we should at least try to make this work.”

Twilight felt Rainbow Dash brush up against her. Her body tensed instinctively for a moment, not expecting the subtle touch of another pony. She relaxed after a moment, even leaning slightly into her friend. Her body was warm, and was a welcomed sensation compared to the cold air. “I don’t know…”

“Don’t tell me you lied when you said you liked me earlier.” A small frown crept across Dash’s face.

Twilight shook her head quickly. “No, I-I do like you…but…I’m scared…if this doesn’t work out…I don’t want to lose you as a friend.” Twilight’s voice became soft as she spoke.

“Twi, I think because we’re good friends, we have a shot at making this work.” Rainbow Dash leaned into Twilight, staring deep into her dark purple eyes. “Besides, you’re mature enough to raise a foal, and…I’ll be there too…” Dash cracked a smile.

“Please, I have enough to worry about without the thought of you raising a foal.” Twilight laughed a bit. She was joined by Rainbow Dash laughing as well.

“It’s a lot to worry about…but I think we can do it,” Rainbow Dash said after their laughter died down.

The two looked into one another’s eyes. Twilight’s cheeks slowly turned red when she realized how close they were. Their muzzles were only a few inches apart. Her friend’s dark rosy eyes pulled her in though, closing the gap between them. The pegasus’s eyes drifted closed as Twilight came closer, her lips parting slightly for the impending kiss. But just as they were about to meet, Twilight turned her head away from her friend.

“W-we really shouldn’t be doing this…” she muttered, trying to hide her flustered state.

“Why not?” Rainbow Dash protested.

“B-because! I…I’m…”

“Because you’re pregnant? It’s mine, Twilight, so that’s a stupid reason for us not to kiss. We’ve done more than this already.” She sighed while shaking her head.

“This isn’t right…I feel like I’m taking advantage of you!” Twilight protested.

“How?”

“Because…I feel like this is all a guilt trip on my part. I love you, Rainbow Dash, I have for a while now, but I didn’t want us to be together just because I’m pregnant!”

“Twilight, I don’t just want to be with you because you’re pregnant. I want to be with you because I like you too!” The athlete’s cheeks flared red. “I have for a while…Ever since I first met you. I tried to play it cool, but I screwed that up. Then with the whole Nightmare Moon thing, I was able to be your friend. After getting to know you, I realized you were smart, you seemed to always have an answer for my problems, and just a cool pony…a little weird, but cool in your own way. You liked to watch me do my tricks, and I liked to hang out with you. I was happy, but I always wanted to tell you that I like you. And maybe…we could be a bit more than just friends.”

Twilight lay there silent for a minute, not really sure what to say. The same red on Dash’s cheeks was on Twilight’s as well. “You really think I’m cool?” she asked quietly.

“Yeah. A bit of a nerd, but a cool nerd.” The pegasus gave her a confident smile.

“Thanks,” Twilight said, rolling her eyes. She took a deep breath before she began to speak again. “When I said I liked watching you perform, I told you I liked to because it reminded me of The Wonderbolts shows back in Canterlot. That wasn’t exactly the truth…I actually liked watching you. The way you flew through the air—you always made everything look so easy.” Twilight smiled at Dash.

“I only make it look easy because you’re watching me.” The two looked at one another for a while in silence. Twilight’s eyes held a meek happiness, while Rainbow Dash’s held a more seductive smugness. A small crackle of thunder off in the distance felt like the crackle of a flame inside them, sparking something they had not felt in weeks.

“Dash?” Twilight asked timidly.

“Yeah?”

“Would you…be my marefriend?” Twilight averted her eyes as the word “marefriend” left her lips, but quickly shot her gaze back to meet her friend’s gaze.

The pegasus didn’t reply. She only slowly leaned into Twilight, placing her lips on the unicorn’s. She kissed her innocently, not parting her lips as they met. She guided Twilight’s muzzle downward with her own, until their kiss broke. Gently, she pressed her forehead to Twilight’s, holding her eyes close as a smile rested on her face. “Yes.”

Twilight breathed a sigh of relief. “I can’t believe this is happening,” she said with a nervous chuckle. “It’s almost like a dream.”

“Do you want me to give you a nip so you know it isn’t?” Dash asked playfully.

“No, knowing my luck, it probably is, and I’d rather not wake up,” Twilight said with a small yawn.

Rainbow Dash didn’t respond. She only leaned into her new marefriend’s side, giving the slightly shaking unicorn some warmth. Her wing extended out, covering Twilight of them like a feathery blanket. Just as she was about to rest her head against her mare’s, she found Twilight resting her head on her neck in less than a second. Rainbow Dash gave a small, content smile as she looked out at the storm still hovering above Ponyville. The rain was softer now, thunder sounding less often, all telltale signs the storm was coming to an end.

“You’ve been worrying about this, haven’t you,” she said to the mare resting against her body. She felt a small nod against her fur.

“Longer than you know…” Twilight muttered softly, her voice hung heavy with fatigue.

“Well, maybe you could use a bit of stress relief.” Without any warning, she slid away from Twilight. The poor unicorn didn’t have a chance to react, and she quickly found herself tumbling onto her side. She looked up to see the outline of a certain pegasus looming over her with a confident smile.

“What did you have in mind?” she asked, almost fearful of the answer.

“A little something to take your mind off things. Listen, Twi…about that night…” Rainbow Dash placed her hoof on Twilight’s chest.

Twilight rolled onto her back, as Dash idly traced circles with her hoof in her fur. “I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately…”

Her eyes fell down to her hoof as she played with Twilight’s fur. “Good, because I was hoping to do something like that tonight.” When her eyes shot back to Twilight’s, she rolled her tongue across her lips slowly.

Twilight let out a little gulp of anticipation. She wasn’t sure how having a serious discussion about their future turned into something like this, but she wasn’t exactly opposed to the idea. What memories she had of that night had been fresh in her mind for the past week. Images of Rainbow Dash sweating as she loomed above her—much like she was now—had been plaguing her since that wonderful night. Even as she brooded over her recent mistakes those few memories she managed to keep in her drunken haze had never been far from her thoughts.

The silvery light of the full moon outlined the pegasus perfectly. The stars stood out, twinkling against the night as her backdrop. They were fully exposed to the elements, and to any pegasus pony who would happen to fly up this high, but it was dead quiet. This wasn’t just any balcony, it was a soft, pillowy veranda high above the countryside of Ponyville. Out from under the blanket of storm clouds, it was a beautiful evening. The sky was positively stunning, the awe-inspiring juxtaposed cityscape sat in front of them, and it was a wonderfully serene night. It could only be described as romantic, now that Twilight had enough mental clarity to see it.

Weakly, she nodded to Dash. The pegasus’s eyes drifted half closed in a playful way as she lowered her muzzle to Twilight’s. The twos’ lips met, and immediately set a fire inside the unicorn. Her heart, having been weighed down with worry for so long, suddenly felt lighter than air. For the moment, she was back in her bedroom on that fateful night, indulging in her friend once more.

Rainbow Dash pressed her body to Twilight’s, siding her foreleg behind the unicorn’s back. She pulled her in, forcing their lips together even more. Both ponies lips parted, allowing one another’s tongue to invade their mouth. A familiar dance occurred as Twilight’s and Rainbow Dash’s tongues both played with one another. Echoes of the previous night they spent together ran through their heads as they kissed.

Twilight found her hooves around Rainbow Dash. She pulled Dash in as close as she could, stroking her untamed mane as she squeezed her tight. Feeling the pegasus in her forelegs confirmed it—this wasn’t a dream, and she certainly wasn’t going to forget this in a drunken haze. Twilight would finally have Rainbow Dash as she wanted her. Her hoof carelessly bumped the base of Rainbow Dash’s wing, making the pegasus shiver for a moment.

“Did that hurt?” she asked with concern. She felt Dash shake her head.

“No, they’re a little sore from working all day. I had to clear the sky yesterday, and today we had to move in some rain clouds, so I had a bit of a workout with them.” Dash buried her muzzle into Twilight’s neck.

“Let me make it better then,” Twilight replied with a predatory smile. Her horn lit up, illuminating the two of them in a soft purple glow. Her magic settled around Rainbow Dash’s wings, causing them to twitch slightly until they grew accustomed to the touch.

“What are you doing?” Dash asked, looking up from Twilight’s neck, though her muzzle was still pressed firmly against the librarian’s fur. She kissed her mare’s lavender fur fervently, as if she would never get the chance again. A warm smell clung to her fur, unconcealed by perfume or soap—Twilight’s scent. Her lover’s natural smell filled her lungs, making her heart feel as though it was floating for a brief moment.

“Just helping you out a bit.” Twilight’s gentle tone rang softly in her ear, causing it to twitch as her breath brushed against her fur.

Suddenly, Dash’s wings snapped stiff outward as a wonderful relaxing pulse pushed down on her sore muscles. Slowly, as Twilight‘s magic worked, her wings fell limp from the magical massage. All the stress built into her muscles was wonderfully kneaded away. Her body followed suit, and soon she was reduced to putty in Twilight’s hooves. She couldn’t stop herself from shuddering as any soreness she felt receded—melting away into utter bliss.

“Twi, you might be my new go-to pony for a massage…” Rainbow Dash said contently.

“So I take it you’re feeling better?” Twilight asked with a small giggle in her voice.

“Much.” She slid up and placed her lips on Twilight’s. As her tongue found its way into Twilight’s mouth, her hoof glided down her lover’s side, until it was on the unicorn’s cutie mark. Gently, she brushed her hoof along Twilight’s fur, blindly tracing a circle on her haunch. Her mare let out a soft whimper when Dash started pressing down into her skin, rubbing in circles around the main star in Twilight’s cutie mark.

Twilight could feel her hind legs getting weak. She let out a soft groan, and the purple light of her magic faded. “Rainbow Dash…” she said, pulling away from Dash’s kiss. A small line of spittle connected the two.

“Yeah?”

“I…can’t wait anymore. I want you…” Twilight released her tight hold on the pegasus, her forelegs falling limp to the ground as she let go.

Dash didn’t reply. She only smiled down at Twilight, giving her a confident smile as she turned her body. She buried her head between Twilight’s hind legs, and placing her own hind legs over Twilight’s head, giving the unicorn full view of her marehood. A few lines of lubricant could be seen on her dark, exposed flesh, shimmering from the light of the moon overhead.

A vague sense of familiarity came to Twilight’s mind as she stared at the glistening slit before her. Memories from her hazy night she had before with the pegasus came flooding back. The thick scent of Rainbow Dash’s arousal smelled so familiar, echoing in her mind that she had done this before, no matter how much it felt like the first time. She brought her mouth to her lover’s petals, and as her tongue probed the pegasus’s folds, the taste the juices left lingering on her tongue, too, felt nostalgic.

Her heart raced from her dream-like memories now coming to life once more. All these distant images and sensations she barely remembered were filled in with the present, revitalizing her memories of that night. She could taste her lover once more, smell her thick, wonderful scent, feel her warm body against her. Those vague memories she had were finding themselves grounded in reality, not just a simple hallucination she imagined. A sudden jolt ran through her as Rainbow Dash licked her clit.

Lust took over Twilight, and conscious thought was pushed aside for carnal need. Her tongue plunged into Rainbow Dash’s pussy, lapping up her juices fervently. Her walls squeezed Twilight’s tongue as the unicorn invaded her folds. She licked from Dash‘s swollen clit, up the pegasus’s slit, before starting again at her sensitive nub.

“Not bad. You’re a lot better at this when you’re sober,” Dash said. Her hind legs shook slightly as Twilight licked her. She quickly dove back into Twilight’s marehood. Her mouth wrapped around Twilight’s stiff nub, sucking on it slightly. She ran the sensitive flesh over her teeth, before nibbling at it carefully.

Twilight gasped from a sharp jolt of pleasure shooting through her body. Her lover’s suckling intensified almost to the point it was painful. But before she could open her mouth to protest, an intense wave of ecstasy washed over her, forcing a moan to slip past her lips instead. Rainbow Dash was licking her drooling sex like she would never get the chance again. Dash’s mouth was replaced by her hoof, lovingly stroking Twilight’s clit.

“If you keep that up, you’re going to make me cum,” Twilight said with a hint of anger in her voice. She refused to let herself finish before Dash; she desperately wanted to see her marefriend writhe in orgasmic bliss first. Her horn sparked to life in protest, preparing a spell that would quickly drive her lover to climax. The purple magical aura snaked away from Twilight’s horn, forming a long, thick appendage. Her magic invaded Rainbow Dash’s loins, like a snake working its way inside her. In an instant, the pegasus’s entire body went stiff—her wings snapping out straight before folding back against her body.

“W-what the hay did you do?” she asked with a shaky voice.

“Just making you catch up a bit.” Twilight snickered to herself. She placed her lips around her lover’s swollen nub, licking it the gentle, but attentive care it deserved.

Dash’s body stiffened again from the onslaught to her senses. She felt a warmth, hotter than even a stallion‘s member, fill her. The magic pulsed with what felt like electricity surging through her body. Every nerve ending went crazy as Twilight’s magic filled her marehood.

In an instant, everything fell into a lust-filled haze. Her body didn’t want to respond, and try as she might, she could only lie there, at the mercy of Twilight. This was the second time she had been with the unicorn, and the second time her mind had been blown by how crazy sex had gotten. Deep inside her pussy, warm, pulsing, vibrations filled her, sending ripples of mind-numbing pleasure through her entire being. Lazily she looked down at Twilight’s quivering sex. She had a vague feeling that should be giving it her attention. Suddenly, Twilight bucked her hips, pulling Dash back to reality. She shook her head to snap herself back to her senses.

With a renewed vigor, she placed her lips around Twilight’s clit once more. Her hoof carefully, but forcefully stroked her lover’s slit from top to bottom. A sudden deep, almost pained groan came from the mare under her, yet Twilight’s juices simply didn’t stop flowing. The thick smell of sex filled the air around them, as both ponies started to sweat. Rainbow Dash could feel her body teetering on the edge, but she refused to let her body cum—Twilight wasn’t there yet, and she knew that.

“A-almost…” Twilight whimpered as if she read Dash’s mind.

The pegasus suckled harder at Twilight’s nub, licking it as she held it in her mouth. Her hoof, already covered in Twilight’s juices, seemed like a blur as it pleasured the unicorn. Rainbow Dash whimpered herself, her own body crying to her, begging for release. Finally, Twilight’s hips bucked, her hind legs twitching as well. This was it.

“I-I’m cumming!” Twilight cried out. A purple glow filled the balcony as the unicorn’s horn glowed vibrantly. Both mares’ bodies tensed in an instant as a flood of mind-numbing bliss filled them. As Twilight continued to cry out, and the magic from her horn growing brighter, Rainbow Dash only twitched slightly. The pegasus mare simply whimpered quietly to herself as the intense pleasure washed over her.

Slowly, as their sensations died down, Twilight’s magic glow became softer, until it finally died down all together. Rainbow Dash could feel the unicorn panting under her. She smiled contently, slowly turning herself around to face Twilight again. She held her dripping hoof up for the librarian to see.

“This is all from you,” she said teasingly.

“S-sorry.”

“Instead of saying you’re sorry—” She placed the her soaked hoof to Twilight’s muzzle. “—why don’t you clean me off instead.”

Twilight’s eyes grew wide for a moment. She looked to Rainbow Dash, and then back to the dripping hoof in front of her. Slowly, her tongue slid out of her mouth, and reluctantly, she licked her lover’s hoof. Her own flavor filled her mouth, making her blush from the demeaning act.

Twilight shot her an angry look, after she finished licking her juices off the pegasus’s hoof. “You’re awful for making me do that…”

“I didn’t think you’d actually do it.” Dash leaned down, pressing her lips to Twilight. Twilight returned the kiss. Her hard expression softened as soon as she felt Dash’s lips against hers.

As the two broke away from one another, their eyes held a content fatigue. Twilight glanced to the side, and without so much as a word, Rainbow Dash nodded. She slid off Twilight’s body, lying next to her. Twilight flipped herself over, and pressed herself against Rainbow Dash. Her head rested against the pegasus as her eyes drifted closed.

“You know, I’m happy,” Rainbow Dash remarked.

“I am too,” Twilight replied.

“I seriously can’t believe we’re here…going out. After what happened the morning after our little drunk night together, I never thought we’d be going out.”

“What? When you left without saying a word?” Twilight sat up, immediately looking to Rainbow Dash.

“Well, after what happened, I kind of thought that I should just leave…”

“I was just a bit surprised, waking up next to you. I mean, I was happy after I calmed down, but by then you were gone…”

“I only left because you bolted out of the bed and ran to the bathroom. I went to check on you, and heard you mumbling to yourself. So, I just thought it was best for me to go…”

“I was hung over, Rainbow Dash…and surprised, did I mention that? The mumbling was just me just trying to get things straight in my head. I was happy to see you there, but I was just a little embarrassed. I didn’t know what I did that night, or what I said, so I was a little confused.” Twilight looked away, trying to hide her shame. “I was going to talk it over with you when I got out of the bathroom, but by then you were gone. And since you left, I thought it was just a drunken one night stand to you. That’s why I didn‘t try and pursue anything,” Twilight added.

“So…wow…I feel stupid…” Dash mumbled.

“I guess it really doesn’t matter now,” Twilight said with a small chuckle. “It all worked out in the end, right?” Twilight placed her head back on Rainbow Dash.

“Yeah, I guess.” The pegasus stretched her wing out over Twilight, pulling her in close, and keeping her warm. She placed her head on top of Twilight’s. As the two watched the night sky, their eyes grew heavy with fatigue. The storm in the distance was a thing of the past, with the clouds cleared by the night weather team.

“I love you, Rainbow Dash,” Twilight muttered mid yawn as she drifted off to sleep.

“I love you too, Twi,” Rainbow Dash replied with the same sleepy tone as her marefriend. As the night weather team finished their cloud clean up duty above Ponyville, the two mares fell asleep, nuzzling each other after a long night. As Rainbow Dash’s consciousness faded off into sleep, over Ponyville a faint, monochrome rainbow could be seen glittering from the moonlight.
